  • Multi-variate morphological filtering with applications to color image processing

    Creator:
    Eo, Jin-woo
    Abstract:
    Mathematical morphology, developed in the early 1960's for single-component signals, has been applied to a number of image processing applications. This investigation examines the systematic extension of mathematical morphology to multi-variate signals. Two approaches are considered. The first approach, the extension of the theory of single-component morphological filters to multi-variate...

  • Image segmentation for defect detection on veneer surfaces

    Creator:
    Zhong, Yuan, 1956-
    Abstract:
    Machine vision is widely used in scientific areas and non-wood using industries, but the extreme variability of wood has limited its adoption by forest products industries. However, it is now becoming a key factor in further automation of the forest products industry. As a very important part of machine vision,...

  • Analysis of linear and nonlinear coupled dielectric waveguides

    Creator:
    Chang, Hosung
    Abstract:
    Multiport network functions, such as impedance matrix parameters and scattering parameters, of general multiple coupled slab waveguides are derived in terms of the normal mode parameters of the system. These characteristic normal mode parameters include the propagation constants, the modal impedances, and the eigenvector matrices. It is shown that the...

  • Implementation of display control node for a distributed microcontroller network

    Creator:
    Xu, Yan, 1954-
    Abstract:
    As hardware becomes cheaper and cheaper, there is an increasing interest in the implementation of distributed control networks with microcontrollers. Such networks are usually inexpensive and of high performance. In this thesis work, a low-cost display control unit for COLAN, a control-oriented network, is designed. The system is based on...

  • Dynamic modeling, simulation and stability analysis of brushless doubly-fed machines

    Creator:
    Li, Ruqi
    Abstract:
    A brushless doubly-fed machine (BDFM) is a single-frame, self-cascaded induction machine capable of operating in both the induction and the synchronous modes. This thesis presents some important advances concerning dynamic modeling, simulation and analysis of the BDFM. Initially, a two-axis model and its associated parameters are developed and calculated. The...

  • The doubly-excited generator and its utilization in a variable-speed generating system

    Creator:
    Agha-Mirsalim, Mojtaba
    Abstract:
    The doubly-excited machine can be used as a variablespeed generator or as a variable-speed-drive motor. In this thesis the focus is on the aspects associated with generating electric power (real and reactive) from erratic energy resources such as water or wind. In such cases, the power input to the prime...

  • Detection and diagnosis of parameters change in linear system using time-frequency transformation

    Creator:
    Park, Dae-hyun
    Abstract:
    A systematic optimization of the Cohen class time-frequency transformation for detecting the parameters change is developed. The local moments approach to change detection is proposed and a general formula for the local moments is derived. The optimal kernel functions of the time-frequency transformation are determined based on the combined criteria...

  • Stochastic properties of morphological filters

    Creator:
    Zhu, Feihong
    Abstract:
    Most of the existing research on mathematical morphology is restricted to the deterministic case. This thesis addresses the void in the results on the stochastic properties of morphological filters. The primary results include analysis of the stochastic properties of morphological operations, such as dilation, erosion, closing and opening. Two unbiased...

  • Robustness of uncertain systems : globally optimal Lyapunov function

    Creator:
    Ahmadkhanlou, Fariborz
    Abstract:
    The Lyapunov direct method is utilized to determine the robustness bounds for nonlinear, time-variant uncertainies p[subscript i]. Determination of the robustness bounds consists of two principal steps: (i) generation of a Lyapunov function and (ii) determination of the bounds based on the generated Lyapunov function. Presently in robustness investigations, a...
