A novel iris recognition method based on multi-texture feature fusion is presented in the paper. The extraction of the texture features with different resolutions in different directions are carried out by performing Gabor wavelet transform for iris image and the extracted features are used as global features of iris. The local features of iris are extracted by applying gray scale level Co-Occurrence Matrix (COM) to the filtered sub-window image. The global features and local features will be recognized and sorted by weighting Euclidean distance and the minimum distance, respectively. A sorting method with Fuzzy Inference system (FIS) feature fusion is designed to improve the robustness of iris recognition. Experimental results show that the method is effective and feasible with recognition ratio up to 98.5%, False Acceptance Rates (FAR) lower than 0.1% while False Rejection Rates (FRR) keeping 1.4%.

The paper offers the possibility of the design of unknown input detection for dynamic systems under external noise effect. The presented geometric based fundamental problem in residual generation (FPRG) method uses on the one hand the Kalman filtering and on the other hand the moving horizon estimation (MHE) when stochastic noise on the input and on the output, with additive failure directions, are presents. The paper combines the optimal Kalman and MHE method with geometric based unknown input observer strategy. The MHE solution makes to treat constraints during the estimation process possible. A numerical example supports the necessity of constrained unknown input estimation

In this paper we derive stabilization conditions for the class of piecewise affine (PWA) systems using the linear matrix inequality (LMI) framework. We take into account the piecewise structure of the system and therefore the matrix inequalities that we solve are less conservative. Using the upper bound of the infinite-horizon quadratic cost as a terminal cost and constructing also a convex terminal set we show that the receding horizon control stabilizes the PWA system. We derive also an algorithm for enlarging the terminal set based on a backward procedure; therefore, the prediction horizon can be chosen shorter, removing some computations off-line.

Periodic locomotion of animal bodies with large degree of freedom is known to be realized by decentralized control using network of central pattern generators (CPGs) that are distributed in spinal cord (in vertebrates) or nerve cords (in invertebrates). In this paper, optimization of a decentralized controller for a snake-like robot based on CPG-network is presented. The controller is composed of CPGs on every robot joints and connections between them. Oscillations of CPGs are coordinated by propagating them each other. For several types of network structure, genetic algorithm (GA) is used to optimize neural parameters, i.e. CPG parameters and synaptic weights. As a result, we derived a CPG-network that is optimal in terms of moving speed

The importance of an uninterrupted electric power service was illustrated in 2003 and 2004 by several outages of electric power systems all over the world. In order to prevent such incidents information about the possible critical parameters are needed. Because of lack of information about this part of the system parameters of the load components are of special interest. Special recently developed tools are capable to analyze parameter influences. Together with test functions they are even capable to identify and classify so called bifurcation. This work presents a systematical analysis of load parameter changes. Points where the system changes its behavior qualitatively (=bifurcations) are identified. Furthermore, their dependence of second or third parameters are analyzed as well. This is illustrated by considering an often-used example: a nine bus power system.

Flexible joint, one kind of force-sensing element, is a key part of flexible gyro. Its stiffness is very small such that it is easily disturbed by noises in working environment. During the development of the instrument of its stiffness measuring, instability is the main factor affecting the measuring precision. This paper firstly presents a model for stiffness measuring system subjected to disturbance. Based on the model, robust H/sub /spl infin// control design for stiffness measurement of flexible joint is proposed by using a complete parametric approach of eigenstructure assignment to stabilize the stiffness measuring system and guarantee the specified H/sub /spl infin//-norm upper-bound constraint. Finally, the results of simulation show the effect of the proposed approach.

This paper investigates how to generate cyclic gaits for multi-bodied isolated mechanical systems whose configuration space is represented by a trivial fiber bundle. We describe how to generate gaits in the base space of the fiber bundle, or the shape space of the robot on which we assume full control. Such gaits are guaranteed to generate a non-zero motion along the fiber space, i.e., a net change in the position of the robot, while making sure that the robot’s shape is unchanged after a complete cycle. The gait generation technique presented in this paper is intuitive; it involves dividing the base space into well defined regions and devising a set of simple rules on how to generate curves in such regions. Not only do such curves guarantee non-zero position change but also do allow for gait optimization.

Infrared (IR) and visible images are commonly used in the detection and tracking of a moving target. A novel contour extraction scheme for a moving vehicle is proposed in this paper. Firstly, a motion segmentation technology is applied to get an initial contour. Secondly, a dynamic contour is applied to represent the initial contour and then converges to the target's contour. Lastly, a novel image fusion is proposed, which minimizes the B-spline norm's square of control point vector's difference in two modal images. Image registration is not required. The experiment indicates that for visible images, average contour extraction error decreases by 58.14% after the fusion. Moreover, a fast iteration algorithm of dynamic contour based on the Newmark algorithm is devised. This image fusion is implemented only with control point vectors and is suitable for real-time processing.

Internet congestion controlsystem is considered as a closed-loop feedback system with time-delay. A proportional-integral-differential (PID) controller is then established as active queue management (AQM) scheme to adjust the congestion marked possibility at the links in Internet, whose parameters is auto-tuned by applying the minimization of an integral criterion for adapting the change of the network system. The simulations show that the new AQM scheme can control the size of the queue in the buffer to an expected length and has the robustness for the loading perturbation and the parameter change in the network.
