Determination of Optimal ValveTiming for Internal Combustion Engines Using Parameter Estimation Method

On Sinusoidal Parameter Estimation

This paper contains a review of the issues surrounding sinusoidal parameter estimation which is a vital part of many audio manipulation algorithms. A number of algorithms which use the phase of the Fourier transform for estimation (e.g. [1]) are explored and shown to be identical. Their performance against a classical interpolation estimator [2] and comparison with the Cramer Rao Bound (CRB) is...

Spatiotemporal pattern coding using Neural Fields: Optimal parameter estimation

In this work we present the parameter optimization of a distributed model for the classification of temporal sequences. The model we present codes information with a population of units, and it can be applied to discriminate between several spatiotemporal sequences. The implementation of this classification technique strongly depends on how the the connection weights are set according to the se...

Computationally efficient parameter estimation for harmonic sinusoidal signals

A Markov-like weighted least squares (WLS) estimator is presented herein for harmonic sinusoidal parameter estimation. The estimator involves two distinct steps whereby it "rst obtains a set of initial parameter estimates that neglect the harmonic structure by some standard sinusoidal parameter estimation technique, and then the initial parameter estimates are re"ned via a WLS "t. Numerical res...

Hydrothermal Optimal Power Flow Using Continuation Method

The problem of optimal economic operation of hydrothermal electric power systems is solved using powerful continuation method. While in conventional approach, fixed generation voltages are used to avoid convergence problems, in the proposed algorithm, they are treated as variables so that better solutions can be obtained. The algorithm is tested for a typical 5-bus and 17-bus New Zealand networ...
