By Nikolay Karabutov

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.01, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

The problem of an estimation quality indicators of linear dynamic system in the conditions of uncertainty is considered. Quality indicators are a point of an equilibrium state and a spectrum of eigenvalues. We offer a method of an estimation a point of an equilibrium state. Method is based on identification of the particular solution system on a class of static models with the dynamic specification on an input. We offered on the basis of the general decision of system procedures and criteria of an estimation equilibrium state. After an estimation of equilibrium state system in work the problem of definition a spectrum eigenvalues of linear dynamic system is considered. We form the time series describing a modification of Lyapunov exponents. For identification of a spectrum eigenvalues we introduce special structures which describe a modification of the Lyapunov exponent. We apply a method of the secant structures and we receive spectrum tentative estimations. The special structure, allowing identifying the largest Lyapunov exponent, is offered. Generalization of the offered methods on linear non-stationary dynamic systems is given.

Auditory Model Identification Using REVCOR Method

By Lamia Bouafif Noureddine Ellouze

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.02, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

Auditory models are very useful in many applications such as speech coding and compression, cochlea prosthesis, and audio watermarking. In this paper we will develop a new auditory model based on the REVCOR method. This technique is based on the estimation of the impulse response of a suitable filter characterizing the auditory neuron and the cochlea. The first step of our study is focused on the development of a mathematical model based on the gammachirp system. This model is then programmed, implemented and simulated under Matlab. The obtained results are compared with the experimental values (REVCOR experiments) for the validation and a better optimization of the model parameters. Two objective criteria are used in order to optimize the audio model estimation which are the SNR (signal to noise ratio) and the MQE (mean quadratic error). The simulation results demonstrated that for the auditory model, only a reduced number of channels are excited (from 3 to 6). This result is very interesting for auditory implants because only significant channels will be stimulated. Besides, this simplifies the electronic implementation and medical intervention.

Sequential Adaptive RBF-Fuzzy Variable Structure Control Applied to Robotics Systems

By Mohammed Salem Mohamed F. Khelfi

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.03, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

In this paper, we present a combination of sequential trained radial basis function networks and fuzzy techniques to enhance the variable structure controllers dedicated to robotics systems. In this aim, four RBFs networks were used to estimate the model based part parameters (Inertia, Centrifugal and Coriolis, Gravity and Friction matrices) of a variable structure controller so to respond to model variation and disturbances, a sequential online training algorithm based on Growing-Pruning "GAP" strategy and Kalman filter was implemented. To eliminate the chattering effect, the corrective control of the VS control was computed by a fuzzy controller. Simulations are carried out to control three degrees of freedom SCARA robot manipulator where the obtained results show good disturbance rejection and chattering elimination.

An Empirical Method for Optimization of Counterpropagation Neural Network Classifier Design for Fabric Defect Inspection

By Md. Tarek Habib M. Rokonuzzaman

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.04, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

Automated, i.e. machine vision based fabric defect inspection systems have been drawing plenty of attention of the researchers in order to replace manual inspection. Two difficult problems are mainly posed by automated fabric defect inspection systems. They are defect detection and defect classification. Counterpropagation neural network (CPN) is a robust classifier and very promising for defect classification. In general, works reported to date have claimed varying level of successes in detection and classification of different types of defects through CPN; but in particular, no claimed has been made for successful application of CPN for fabric defects detection and classification. In those published works, no investigation has been reported regarding to the variation of major performance parameters of NN based classifiers such as learning time and classification accuracy based on network topology and training parameters. As a result, application engineer has little or no guidance to take design decisions for reaching to optimum structure of NN based defect classifiers in general and CPN based in particular. Our work focuses on empirical investigation of interrelationship between design parameters and performance of CPN based classifier for fabric defect classification. It is believed that such work will be laying the ground to empower application engineers to decide about optimum values of design parameters for realizing most appropriate CPN based classifier.

By Md Rashid Mahmood M.T Beg

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.05, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

In this paper a multiband dielectric resonator with array of defect at the ground plane is proposed. Filter is constructed by placing high-quality factor 〖TE〗_01δ mode dielectric resonators on the microstripline. The focus is on the design process includes choosing optimum geometry of a dielectric resonator so that high Q can be achieved. This is designed without compromising miniaturization and efficiency. It is observed that the integration of dielectric resonator with DGS may be merged to achieve wide band.Two band with 6 GHz low pass filter and 2 GHz band pass filter has been achieved. The filter which is proposed for microwave communication is expected to have better quality factor compared to lumped elements-based BPF. The used MBDRF have bandwidth of 6GHz and 2 GHz with dielectric constant of 60±1.

By Agus Zainal Arifin Yuita Arum Sari Evy Kamilah Ratnasari Siti Mutrofin

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.07, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

Emotion detection is an application that is widely used in social media for industrial environment, health, and security problems. Twitter is ashort text messageknown as tweet. Based on content and purposes, the tweet can describes as information about a user’s emotion. Emotion detection by means oftweet, is a challenging problem because only a few features can be extracted. Getting features related to emotion is important at the first phase of extraction, so the appropriate features such as a hashtag, emoji, emoticon, and adjective terms are needed. We propose a new method for analyzing the linkages among features and reducedsemantically using Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF). The dataset is taken from a Twitter application using Indonesian language with normalization of informal terms in advance. There are 764 tweets in corpus which have five emotions, i.e. happy (senang), angry (marah), fear (takut), sad (sedih), and surprise(terkejut). Then, the percentage of user’s emotion is computed by k-Nearest Neighbor(kNN) approach. Our proposed model achieves the problem of emotion detectionwhich is proved by the result near ground truth.

By Mohammad bazmara

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.08, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

A combination of various fuzzy systems on identification and evaluation of soccer players’ position is represented in this article. In other words, fuzzy logic, as an appropriate means, has been applied to study soccer player's personality traits and skills to figure out which position suits each individual best. Soccer experts are aware of the fact that a successful soccer player in any intended position must bear some specific characteristics. Using fuzzy logic, a model has been offered, called soccer player position identification. This model has some important features: First, the most appropriate position for each individual player can be identified. Second, this system offers some solutions to problems caused by the experimental and intuitive couches’ ideas about player positioning which decreases the need for experts and professional couches. Third, this model overcomes the problems in the analysis of player positioning without the need for quantitative scales, and last but not least, this easy and interpretable method, applied to 264 soccer players' assessments have revealed that the designed fuzzy system is able to identify the qualities among players.

Color Local Binary Patterns for Image Indexing and Retrieval

By K. N. Prakash K. Satya Prasad

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.09, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

A new algorithm meant for content based image retrieval (CBIR) is presented in this paper. First the RGB (red, green, and blue) image is converted into HSV (hue, saturation, and value) image, then the H and S images are used for histogram calculation by quantizing into Q levels and the local region of V (value) image is represented by local binary patterns (LBP), which are evaluated by taking into consideration of local difference between the center pixel and its neighbors. LBP extracts the information based on distribution of edges in an image. Two experiments have been carried out for proving the worth of our algorithm. It is further mentioned that the database considered for experiments are Corel 1000 database (DB1), and MIT VisTex database (DB2). The results after being investigated show a significant improvement in terms of their evaluation measures as compared to LBP on RGB spaces separately and other existing techniques.

Design New Online Tuning Intelligent Chattering Free Fuzzy Compensator

By Alireza Khalilian Farzin Piltan Omid Avatefipour Mahmoud Reza Safaei Nasrabad Ghasem Sahamijoo

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2014.09.10, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2014

This research is focused on proposed adaptive fuzzy sliding mode algorithms with the adaptation laws derived in the Lyapunov sense. The stability of the closed-loop system is proved mathematically based on the Lyapunov method. Adaptive MIMO fuzzy compensate fuzzy sliding mode method design a MIMO fuzzy system to compensate for the model uncertainties of the system, and chattering also solved by new adaption method. Since there is no tuning method to adjust the premise part of fuzzy rules so we presented a scheme to online tune consequence part of fuzzy rules. Classical sliding mode control is robust to control model uncertainties and external disturbances. A sliding mode method with a switching control low guarantees the stability of the certain and/or uncertain system, but the addition of the switching control low introduces chattering into the system. One of the main targets in this research to reduce or eliminate chattering is to insert online tuning method. Classical sliding mode control method has difficulty in handling unstructured model uncertainties. One can overcome this problem by combining a sliding mode controller and artificial intelligence (e.g. fuzzy logic). To approximate a time-varying nonlinear dynamic system, a fuzzy system requires a large amount of fuzzy rule base. This large number of fuzzy rules will cause a high computation load. The addition of an adaptive law to a fuzzy sliding mode controller to online tune the parameters of the fuzzy rules in use will ensure a moderate computational load. The adaptive laws in this algorithm are designed based on the Lyapunov stability theorem. Asymptotic stability of the closed loop system is also proved in the sense of Lyapunov. This method is applied to continuum robot manipulator to have the best performance.
