The agents are assumed to be able to measure only their relative position to the other agents and the target and high gain observers are applied to estimate the derivatives of the combined tracking and formation errors. Various formation maneuvers such as contraction/expansion, rotation, and reconfiguration of the formation are also considered. Bounding and sliding mode control terms are used to guarantee stability and robust performance. Simple numerical simulations are also provided to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm.","PeriodicalId":415263,"journal":{"name":"2013 13th International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS 2013)","volume":"173 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123842415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We evaluate the performance of robot control system in a communication robot placed in a real noisy environment. Voice is captured using a wireless microphone. To suppress interference and noise and to attenuate reverberation, we implemented a multi-channel system consisting of an outlier-robust generalized side-lobe canceller technique and a feature-space noise suppression using criteria. Voice activity periods are detected based end-point detection.","PeriodicalId":415263,"journal":{"name":"2013 13th International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS 2013)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122459673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Infrared LEDs and an inertial sensor unit are attached on a golf club and a stereo camera unit is used. During the address and impact golf swing phases, the cameras capture infrared LEDs on a golf club. Using infrared LEDs as landmarks, position and orientation of a golf club is computed. When a golf club is moving, an inertial navigation algorithm is used to compute the golf club trajectory. An indirect Kalman filter with 9 states is used to combine inertial sensor and vision data. The average position accuracy is about 3.6cm and the maximum error is about 13.2cm.

However, these recordings are often critically contaminated by cardiac artifact and many methods are applied to EMG in order to remove the artifacts from the EMG signals. We applied to both simulation and real EMG data a recently developed method of a combination of ensemble empirical mode decomposition and independent component analysis (EEMD+ICA), and compared its performance with that of other previously developed filtering methods. Relative root-mean-square errors (RRMSE) and correlations between the cleaned EMG and ECG contaminated EMG were calculated to evaluate the performance. The EMD based single channel technique showed better performance compared to the cubic smoothing spline and high-pass-filter (HPF) method for varied amplitude without a reference signal. Therefore, if the reference signal is not present, the combined EEMD and ICA procedure prove to be a reliable and efficient tool for removing ECG artifact from surface EMG.","PeriodicalId":415263,"journal":{"name":"2013 13th International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS 2013)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127691139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, unfortunately, the statistical information used in NCRKF scheme may not be precise in actual situation and it leads to the performance degradation. Therefore, in this paper, constrained NCRKF (CNCRKF) is presented to develop practical DOA estimator. It adopts constraint condition derived from the relation between target states to solve the performance degradation problem by the incorrect statistical information.
