In this paper, we propose a modified probabilistic neural network, and applied it to brain magnetic resonance (MR) image segmentation. Comparing to conventional probabilistic neural network (PNN), the so-called weight...

We introduce methods of hierarchically decomposing three types of graph optimization problems: all-pairs shortest path, all-pairs maximum flow,and search. Each method uses a partition on the graph to create a high level problem and several lower level problems. The computations on each level are identical, so the low level problems can be further decomposed. In this way, the problems become fractal in nature. We use these decomposition methods to establish upper and lower bounds on the optimal criteria of each problem, which can be achieved with much less computation than what is required to solve the original problem. Also, for each problem, we find an optimal number of partitions that minimizes computation time. As the number of hierarchical levels increases, the computational complexity decreases at the expense of looser bounds.
This paper presents a numerical solution for a mobile sensor motion trajectory scheduling problem under nonholomonic constraints of a project named MAS-net, which stands for Mobile Actuator- Sensor network. The motiva...

Preventing accidents caused by drowsiness behind the steering wheel is highly desirable but requires techniques for continuously estimating driver's abilities of perception, recognition and vehicle control abilities. This paper proposes methods for drowsiness estimation that combine the electroencephalogram (EEG) log subband power spectrum, correlation analysis, principal component analysis, and linear regression models to indirectly estimate driver's drowsiness level in a virtual-reality-based driving simulator. Results show that it is feasible to quantitatively monitor driver's alertness with concurrent changes in driving performance in a realistic driving simulator.

For a class of nonlinear systems affine in controls and with unknown high frequency gain, we develop a hybrid control strategy that guarantees (practical) global input-to-state stability (ISS) with respect to measurement noise. We provide a design procedure for the hybrid controller and apply it to Freeman’s counterexample and minimum-phase relative degree one systems.
In this paper, an intelligent controller is applied to speed control of a switched reluctance motor. Two techniques are used which have been successfully used in other intelligent modeling and control applications. Fi...

In this paper, robust regulation of a class of nonlinear singularly perturbed systems, via nonlinear H ∞ approach is considered. Under appropriate assumptions, it is shown through two new theorems that the existence of a positive definite solution for the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs inequality related to the problem of disturbance attenuation for the main singularly perturbed system, can be related to the existence of a solution of a (simpler) Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs inequality arising in the problem of disturbance attenuation for the reduced-order system.
This paper presents a new method for hierarchical image segmentation. The hierarchical structure is represented by a binary tree with the main image as its root. At the lower levels, each node stands as one image segm...

Two invariance principles for generalized hybrid systems are presented. One version involves the use of a nonincreasing function, like in the original work of LaSalle. The other version involves "meagreness" conditions. These principles characterize asymptotic convergence of bounded hybrid trajectories to weakly invariant sets. A detectability property is used to locate a set in which the Q-limit set of a trajectory is contained. Next, it is shown how the invariance principles can be used to certify asymptotic stability in hybrid systems. Lyapunov and Krasovskii theorems for hybrid systems are included.
