An Investigation Of Flicker Reduction Using An Adaptive Var Compensator, Juri V. Jatskevich, Oleg Wasynczuk Mar 1997

An Investigation Of Flicker Reduction Using An Adaptive Var Compensator, Juri V. Jatskevich, Oleg Wasynczuk

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

A detailed computer model of a three-phase power network which includes inductive loads, resistance welders and an Adaptive Var Compensator (AVC) has been developed. The system configuration and parameters correspond to an irrdustrial customer served by a large electric utility. Welder operation produces severe cyclic flicker which leads to customer complaints. Computer studies have been conducted to determine the effectiveness of the AVC on the reduction of observable flicker at neighboring loads. Flicker severity was determined using the UE 1 E C flickermeter technique adopted for 120-V incandescent lamps. Different control strategies involving the AVC have been considered and compared …

Reducing Glitching And Leakage Power In Low Voltage Cmos Circuits, Zhanping Chen, Liqiong Wei, Kaushik Roy Mar 1997

Reducing Glitching And Leakage Power In Low Voltage Cmos Circuits, Zhanping Chen, Liqiong Wei, Kaushik Roy

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

The need for low power dissipation in portable computing and wireless communication is making design communities accept ultra low voltage CMOS processes. With the lowering of' supply voltage, the transistor thresholds (Vth) have to be scaled down to meet the performance requirements. However, such scaling can increase the leakage current through a transistor, thereby increasing the leakage power. It can also be noted that in static CMOS circuits, the paths converging to any internal gate may have different propagation delays. The delay mismatch of' different paths causes spurious transitions. Such transitions increase the power dissipation due to the switching component …

Modeling Driver's Route Choice Behavior Under The Influence Of Advanced Traveler Information Systems (Vol. 2; Vol. 1: 96/10), Samer Madanat, Nitin K. Jain Mar 1997

Modeling Driver's Route Choice Behavior Under The Influence Of Advanced Traveler Information Systems (Vol. 2; Vol. 1: 96/10), Samer Madanat, Nitin K. Jain

JTRP Technical Reports

This research consisted of two parts; this report is volume 2 of 2 volumes; Volume 1 is Report No. FHWA/IN/JHRP-96/10. The first part developed a set of incident clearance time prediction models for the Borman Expressway. The second part consisted of modeling driver’s route choice behavior under the influence of advanced traveler information systems.

Volume 2 of this report describes the modeling driver's route choice behavior under the iinfluence of Advanced Traveler Information Systems. These models can help in understanding the behavior and response of travelers under the influeince of Advanced Traveler Information Systmes.r

Detecting The Abnormal: Machine Learning In Computer Security, Terran Lane, Carla E. Brodley Feb 1997

Detecting The Abnormal: Machine Learning In Computer Security, Terran Lane, Carla E. Brodley

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

TINOpr oblems of importance in computer security are to I) detect the presence of an intruder masquerading as the valid user and 2) detect the perpetration of abusive actions on the part of an otherwise innocuous user. In this paper we present a machine learning approach to anomaly detection, desigined to handle these two problems. Our system learns a user profile for each user account and subsequently employs it to detect anomalous behavior in that account. Based on sequences of actions (UNIX commands) of the current user's input sti:earn, the system compares each fixed-length input sequence with a historical library …


A Methodology For Designing Image Similarity Metrics Based On Human Visual System Models, Thomas Frese, Charles A. Bouman, Jan P. Allebach Feb 1997

A Methodology For Designing Image Similarity Metrics Based On Human Visual System Models, Thomas Frese, Charles A. Bouman, Jan P. Allebach

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

In this report we present an image similarity metric for content-based image database search. The similarity metric is based on a multiscale model of the human visual system. This multiscale model includes channels which account for perceptual phenomena such as color, contrast, color-contrast and orientation selectivity. From these channels, we extract features and then forin an aggregate measure of similarity using a weighted linear combination of the feature differences. The choice of features and weights is :made to maximize the consistency with similarity ratings made by human subjects. In particular, we use a visual test to collect experimental image matching …


On Power Reduction Of Fir Digital Filters Using Constrained Least Squares Solution, Khurram Muhammad, Kaushik Roy Feb 1997

On Power Reduction Of Fir Digital Filters Using Constrained Least Squares Solution, Khurram Muhammad, Kaushik Roy

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

In this report, we apply constraint least squares solution (CLS) to the problem of reducing the number of operations in FIR digital filters with a motivation of reducing its power consumption. The constraints are defined by the maximum allowable add/subtract operations in forming the products which are used in computing the output. We show that truncation and rounding 0.f coefficients can be viewed as power constrained least squares (PCLS) solutions. Further, we show that in dedicated DSP processor based architectures it is possible to reduce power by using PCLS coefficients along with appropriately modified multipliers. It is also shown that …
