The field of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) has gained great significance in the R&D activities of several institutions, and numerous realizations have been constructed. Controlling the movement of a UAV is one of the most significant tasks in the hierarchical control system that should be realized in order to successfully manage UAVs in several missions. Precise control of the movement requires accurate mathematical models of the aircraft that correspond to the several control schemes that are intended to apply, including linearised, LPV, and nonlinear ones. The source of mathematical models includes the physical model constructed on the basis of the Newtonian equations and the rules of aerodynamics, as well as the use of empirical observations, measurements. The methodology of system identification offers the tools that can be used to manage this field. The Systems and Control Laboratory of the computer and automation Research Institute in cooperation with University of Minnesota and Budapest University of Technology and Economics has built - as a part of a more general framework established to solve complex UAV control problems - small UAVs, equipped with on-board sensors and embedded computer with the purpose of obtaining an adequate test platform for the aircraft experiments. Based on on-board measurements acquired during the flight tests performed with the UAVs, the opportunity has been given to test several system identification approaches corresponding to the control tasks to be solved. This paper gives an outline of the system identification and modelling methods that have successfully been applied, and also analyzes the problems encountered in the data-acquisition - signal processing - computing chain.

Dynamic singularities make it difficult to plan the Cartesian path of free-floating robot. In order to avoid its effect, the direct kinematic equations are used for path planning in the paper. Here, the joint position, rate and acceleration are bounded. Firstly, the joint trajectories are parameterized by polynomial or sinusoidal functions. And the two parametric functions are compared in details. It is the first contribution of the paper that polynomial functions can be used when the joint angles are limited (In the similar work of other researchers, only sinusoidla functions could be used). Secondly, the joint functions are normalized and the system of equations about the parameters is established by integrating the differential kinematics equations. Normalization is another contribution of the paper. After normalization, the boundary of the parameters is determined beforehand, and the general criterion to assign the initial guess of the unknown parameters is supplied. The criterion is independent on the planning conditions such as the total time tf. Finally, the parametes are solved by the iterative Newtonian method. Modification of tf may not result in the recalculation of the parameters. Simulation results verify the path planning method.

The identification of the correspondences of points of views is an important task. A new feature matching algorithm for weakly calibrated stereo images of curved scenes is proposed, based on mere geometric constraints. After initial correspondences are built via the epipolar constraint, many point-to-point image mappings called homographies are set up to predict the matching position for feature points. To refine the predictions and reject false correspondences, four schemes are proposed. Extensive experiments on simulated data as well as on real images of scenes of variant dept.s show that the proposed method is effective and robust.

3-D dual-tree discrete wavelet transform (DDWT) is attractive for video representation since it isolates motion along different directions in its directional subbands, and has been employed for video coding. In this paper, we analyze its efficiency in capturing motion activities. Similar analysis is then extended to 3-D anisotropic DDWT (ADDWT). Experiments verify the effectiveness of our analysis. Based on the motion analysis, we realize that 3-D DDWT/ADDWT can not adapt to intense motion activities, and propose a new transform structure for high motion sequences. It is shown that the new scheme brings about 1dB coding gain.
