This paper presents the design of a nonlinear multivariable adaptive control strategy for a class of wastewater depollution bioprocesses that are carried out in recycle bioreactors. The adaptive control structure is achieved by combining a linearizing control law with a new state observer and a parameter estimator, which play the role of the software sensors for on-line estimation of biological...

Forward scatter radar (FSR) has potential applications such as target detection, classification, and recognition. The success of these issues depends on the accuracy of parameter estimation. Many parameter estimation methods for air-based FSR have been given, but cannot directly be applied in the ground-based ones for the different system functions. The received signal in ground-based FSR depen...

‎the aim of this paper is to study distribution of ratios of generalized order statistics from pareto distribution. parameter estimation of pareto distribution based on generalized order statistics and ratios of them have been obtained. inferences using method of moments and unbiased estimator have been obtained to develop point estimations. consistency of unbiased estimator has been illustrate...

This paper presents some approaches on the new applications in fault estimation, detection and diagnosis emerged from three powerful concepts: theory of distributed parameter systems, applied to large and complex physical processes, artificial intelligence, with its tool adaptive-network-based fuzzy inference and the intelligent wireless ad-hoc sensor networks. Sensor networks have large and su...

In most adaptive control algorithms, parameter estimate errors are not guaranteed to converge to zero. This lack of convergence adversely affects the global performance of the algorithms. The effect is more pronounced in control problems where the desired reference setpoint or trajectory depends on the system's unknown parameters. This paper presents a parameter estimation routine that allows e...

An adaptive discrete-time LQG control with loop transfer recovery (LTR) is considered. The control problem is analyzed using state-space model and the parameter estimation problem is implemented for corresponding discrete-time model in transfer function form obtained via ZOH. Thus the direct estimation of model parameters is possible by means of standard RLS or ERLS procedure and the adaptive c...

This paper presents an automatic FDP (Facial Definition Parameters) and FAP (Facial Animation Parameters) generation method from an image sequence that captures a frontal face. The proposed method is based on facial feature tracking without markers on a face. We present an efficient method to extract 2D facial features and to generate the FDP by applying 2D features to a generic face model. We ...

Estimation of various flow and mass transport parameters can be seen as the inverse problem of groundwater modeling. In this article, current methodologies for parameter estimation are classified according to whether they consider the errors in observation data, in parameter structure, and in model applications. The structures of hydraulic parameters are usually very complex and unknown. This a...

− The Model Reference Adaptive System (MRAS) is probably the most widely applied speed sensorless drive control scheme. This paper compares induction motor speed estimation using conventional MRAS and AI-based MRAS with Stator Resistance Compensation. A conventional mathematical model based MRAS speed estimation scheme can give a relatively precise speed estimation result, but errors will occur...
