The image sensor is widely used for road monitoring systems, but it is difficult to detect a vehicle in poor visibility. On the other hand, millimeter waves are less attenuated by fog, rain and snow. Consequently, it is possible to detect vehicles in all weather by using radar together with the image sensor. As for observation accuracy, the image sensor is superior in the accuracy of angle measuring. On the other hand, radar is superior in accuracy for range measurement. By utilizing these various features, therefore, the tracking performance is improved. This method adopts a correlation technique that uses a likelihood of range rate observed by radar, in addition to a likelihood of position, so that this method is generally able to track the vehicles from observation vectors even if false detection occurs. The performance of this method is evaluated by simulations.","PeriodicalId":254956,"journal":{"name":"SICE 2000. Proceedings of the 39th SICE Annual Conference.

In this research we are going to present a stochastic real value reinforcement learning algorithm for learning functions with continuous outputs. Obstacle avoidance mission is divided into targeting and avoiding behavior. Because of the complexity of the implemented method, only targeting results, which are achieved most recently, are proposed here and research is under progress to achieve to the final goal.","PeriodicalId":254956,"journal":{"name":"SICE 2000.

In this paper, we attempt to clarify the mechanism of such autonomy of biological systems by developing the adaptation model of Physarum, which consists of endoplasmic, ectoplasmic and intermediate layers. In an ectoplasmic layer, the chemical system generates a spatial relationship in small time scale. In an endoplasmic layer, the mechanical system affects the chemical system in a large time scale. We assume that chemo-mechanical coupling system of two systems plays an important role in adaptation. Under these conditions, mutual interaction between the above chemical system and mechanical system is investigated. As a result, it is suggested that the chemical system is flexible and the mechanical system is consistent under a dynamic environment. In addition, we investigate spatio-temporal development of actual Physarum by making an image processing experimental system to check out the validity of our model.","PeriodicalId":254956,"journal":{"name":"SICE 2000.

It provides attractive features such as fast dynamic response, insensitivity to variations in plant parameters and external disturbance. However, chattering is one problem, which limits the use of the SMC to control DC motor drives in industry. This paper presents a fuzzy variable structure controller for the DC motor drives. The fuzzy controller is used to adjust the switching gain constant in the sliding mode controller to guarantee the system stability and practically to eliminate the chattering problem. The performance of the proposed system is compared with that of traditional variable structure and sliding mode with boundary layers method.","PeriodicalId":254956,"journal":{"name":"SICE 2000.

We (1999) previously proposed a new track initiation method based on an assumption that the measurements used are observed by highly nonuniform measurement patterns in a multiple target environment. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of the trade-initiation between the proposed method and the conventional method by using the feature of measurement patterns obtained by optical sensors.","PeriodicalId":254956,"journal":{"name":"SICE 2000.
