    Fisher's Linear Discriminant Analysis Based Prediction Using Transient Features of Seismic Events in Coal Mines
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016) Köktürk Güzel, Başak Esin; Karaçalı, Bilge
    Identification of seismic activity levels in coal mines is important to avoid accidents such as rockburst. Creating an early warning system that can save lives requires an automated way of predicting. This study proposes a prediction algorithm for the AAIA'16 Data Mining Challenge: Predicting Dangerous Seismic Events in Active Coal Mines that is based on transient activity features along with average indicators evaluated by a Fisher's linear discriminant analysis. Performance evaluation experiments on the training datasets revealed an accuracy level of around 0.9438 while the performance on the test dataset was at a level of 0.9297. These results suggest that the proposed approach achieves high accuracy in predicting danger seismic events while maintaining low complexity.

    Range Identification for Nonlinear Parameterizable Paracatadioptric Systems
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Nath, Nitendra; Dawson, Darren M.; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    In this paper, a new range identification technique for a calibrated paracatadioptric system mounted on a moving platform is developed to recover the range information and the three-dimensional (3D) Euclidean coordinates of a static object feature. The position of the moving platform is assumed to be measurable. To identify the unknown range, first a function of the projected pixel coordinates is related to the unknown 3D Euclidean coordinates of an object feature. This function is nonlinearly parameterized (i.e., the unknown parameters appear nonlinearly in the parameterized model). An adaptive estimator based on a min-max algorithm is then designed to estimate the unknown 3D Euclidean coordinates of an object feature relative to a fixed reference frame which facilitates the identification of range. A Lyapunov-type stability analysis is used to show that the developed estimator provides an estimation of the unknown parameters within a desired precision.

    Nonlinear Robust Control To Maximize Energy Capture in a Variable Speed Wind Turbine Using an Induction Generator
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Iyasere, Erhun; Dawson, Darren M.; Wagner, John R.; Salah, Mohammed; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    The emergence of wind turbine systems for electric power generation can help satisfy the growing global demand. This paper proposes a control strategy to maximize the wind energy captured in a variable speed wind turbine, with an internal induction generator, at low to medium wind speeds. The proposed strategy controls the tip speed ratio, via the rotor angular speed, to an optimum point at which the efficiency constant (or power coefficient) is maximal for a particular blade pitch angle and wind speed. This control method allows for aerodynamic rotor power maximization without exact wind turbine model knowledge.

    Robust Tracking Control of an Underactuated Quadrotor Aerial-Robot Based on a Parametric Uncertain Model
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Lee, Dongbin; Burg, Timothy C.; Dawson, Darren M.; Shu, Dule; Xian, Bin; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver
    In this paper, the tracking control of a underactuated quadrotor aerial vehicle is presented where position and yaw trajectory tracking is achieved using feedback control system. The control design is complicated by considering parametric uncertainty in the dynamic modeling of the quadrotor aerial-robot. Robust control schemes are then designed using a Lyapunov-based approach to compensate for the unknown parameters in each dynamic subsystem model. Lyapunov-type stability analysis suggests a global uniform ultimately bounded (GUUB) tracking result
