In this paper, an active control scheme is designed for the hybrid direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) system to achieve the following three objectives simultaneously: (i) maximize the power produced by the DMFC stack in the stable operation as high loading (for avoiding the operation of DMFC in diffusion region), (ii) keep the power produced by the DMFC stack with the high efficiency as low loading, (iii) prevent the problem of methanol crossover at a very low load. Considering the characteristics of DMFC stack during actual operation, the states VP (t) and

In this paper, a new error concealment algorithm for MPEG-4 object-based video is presented. The algorithm consists of a feature matching step to identify temporally corresponding features between video frames and an affine parameter estimation step to find the motion of the feature points. In the feature matching step, an efficient cross-radial search (CRS) method is developed to find the best matching points. In the affine parameter estimation step, a non-iterative least squares estimation algorithm is developed to estimate the affine parameters. An attractive feature of the algorithm is that the shape data and texture data are handled by the same method. Unlike previous methods, this unified approach works for the case where the video object undergoes a drastic movement, such as a sharp turn. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs much better than previous approaches by about 0.3-2.8 dB for shape data and 1.6-5.0 dB for texture data.
