After a new product has been developed, the product developers hire ordinary people and give an interview to them. In recent years, a new method called “neuromarketing” is used for product evaluation. However, it is difficult to use the conventional measurement devices and they are mainly used in an experimental environment. In this paper, we developed the model to estimate human emotions, especially valence by using single-channel EEG device. We used the fast Fourier transform, the robust scaling and the support vector regression to predict the valence score. The parameters of the methods were selected by using the grid search and the genetic algorithm. The designed model was evaluated by the correlation coefficient and the classification accuracy of two classes between predicted valence data and labeled valence data. The scores were 0.36 and 72.40%.","PeriodicalId":425164,"journal":{"name":"2018 57th Annual Conference of the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers of Japan (SICE)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117072300","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}

For the $H_{infty}$ robust control, a robust stability condition together with a performance criterion in the frequency domain is given to obtain a dynamic controller. For the IEID-based method, the LQR regulation combined with LMI technique and Lyapunov stability theory is used to design the control gains of the state-feedback controller, the state observer and the IEID estimator in the time domain.

A database-driven PID (DD-PID) controller is one of the effective nonlinear PID controller design methods. However, some electrical control units in industrial systems cannot implement the algorithm because the DD-PID control scheme requires a large amount of memory capacity and high-performance processor. The GMDH-PID controller that approximately expresses the behavior of the DD-PID controller by combinations of simple nonlinear functions has been proposed to solve the above problem. Although the GMDH-PID method can reduce the amount of memory capacity and calculation costs, calculated coefficients in nonlinear functions may not stable due to the multicollinearity of input signals. In this research, instead of the least squares method, the LASSO is employed as a coefficient calculation method of the GMDH in which some coefficients can be calculated as zero in order to avoid the influence of the multicollinearity. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated by simulation examples.","PeriodicalId":425164,"journal":{"name":"2018 57th Annual Conference of the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers of Japan (SICE)","volume":"208 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131440361","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}

Firstly, a high-order ILC law embedding the characteristic of known variation of the reference trajectories is introduced to the system. In order to handle the iteration-varying factors, a Lyapunov-Krasovskii function is proposed and sufficient conditions for exponential stability with $l_{2}$ performance of the system are derived in the form of a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs).

The heavy computation leads to decrease the autonomous system performance. In our previous work, a complete vision based dirvable road detection method was proposed using Deep Belief Neural Network(DBNN). However, the previous method is unable to perform in real time for a large scale database. Due to solve this problem, in this paper, two fast drivable road detection approaches have been proposed using Kernel Principal Component Analysis-Deep Belief Neural Network (KPCA-DBNN) and Dimensionality Reduction Deep Belief Neural Network (DRDBNN) to reduce heavy computation for a large database. In the KPCA-DBNN, KPCA is used for dimensionality reduction and DBNN is used for classification. In the DRDBNN, two DBNNs are used. One DBNN is used for dimensionality reduction, and other DBNN is used for classification. The performance of the two approaches is demonstrated by the experimental results. From the experimental results, we see that the KPCA-DBNN and DRDBNN approaches reduce the processing time as compared to the conventional DBNN method. In addition, the results indicate that DRDBNN performed better than KPCA-DBNN in terms of detection accuracy on a large road database.","PeriodicalId":425164,"journal":{"name":"2018 57th Annual Conference of the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers of Japan (SICE)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132249985","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}

An open question is the manner in which to partition a robot's workspace into places (e.g., SVMs) to maximize the overall performance of change classifiers. This is a chicken-or-egg problem: if we have a well-trained change classifier, partitioning the robot's workspace into places is rather easy; However, training a change classifier requires a set of place-specific training data. In this study, we address this novel problem, which we term unsupervised place discovery.

Applications of robotic technology in nursing and welfare require the measurement of a wide range of forces in order to grasp and lift objects accurately in different operating environments. In light of this, we have developed a force sensor that uses a shape-memory polymer (SMP) whose stiffness varies with temperature. The relationship between the applied force and the deformation of the SMP changes depending on the temperature, which allows the measurement range and sensitivity to be changed with temperature. Our sensor, which consists of strain gauges bonded to an SMP beam, senses the applied force by measuring the strain in the SMP as it bends. In the present study, four SMP force sensors with different numbers of strain gauges and steel plates were fabricated, and their accuracy and sensitivity were evaluated. Experiments using the prototypes demonstrated that the sensor with one steel plate had a small error and a large sensitivity range.","PeriodicalId":425164,"journal":{"name":"2018 57th Annual Conference of the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers of Japan (SICE)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133354164","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}

The results confirm that sample entropy exhibits higher value, especially with large-scale factor, near main financial incidents. Furthermore, we classify a multi-scale entropy profile against the time-scale by K-means. Furthermore, we confirm that the multi-scale entropy profile during main financial incidents belongs to the class with larger 1 st component of principal component analysis.
