This study is concerned with the estimation of the parameters of the general (or generalised) extreme value (GEV) distribution by the methods of maximum likelihood (ML) and probability-weighted moments (PWM) for complete and type I censored samples. For complete samples, the PWM provided estimators which are less biased than the ML estimators. For the variances/covariances of the parameter esti...

In this paper, hybrid pulse width modulation algorithm for vector controlled induction motor drives is used to reduce the steady state ripple in current. Also the newly developed Hybrid PWM technique does not use angle and sector information and hence it simplifies the control algorithm. The conventional Space vector pulse width modulation (CSVPWM) algorithm gives inferior performance at higher...

For dynamic closed loop control of a multilevel converter with a low switching frequency, natural sampled PWM is the best form of modulation. However previous natural sampled PWM implementations have generally been analog. A digital implementation has advantages, particularly for a multilevel converter. Re-sampled uniform PWM, a modulation technique which approaches the performance of natural P...

MOTIVATION Position weight matrices (PMWs) are simple models commonly used in motif-finding algorithms to identify short functional elements, such as cis-regulatory motifs, on genes. When few experimentally verified motifs are available, estimation of the PWM may be poor. The resultant PWM may not reliably discriminate a true motif from a false one. While experimentally identifying such motifs ...

MOTIVATION AND RESULTS The position weight matrix (PWM) is a popular method to model transcription factor binding sites. A fundamental problem in cis-regulatory analysis is to "count" the occurrences of a PWM in a DNA sequence. We propose a novel probabilistic score to solve this problem of counting PWM occurrences. The proposed score has two important properties: (1) It gives appropriate weigh...

The relationship between space vector modulation and regular-sampled PWM techniques for hard-switching PWM inverters and rectifiers are reexamined in this paper. Space vector modulation with optimized apportioning of null vector time that results in minimum current THD is investigated and is compared with previously known methods. The conventional optimal regular-sampled PWM method and its rela...

In this paper, a method for minimization of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is proposed in case of PWM inverter. Inverters are widely used in many applications such as in the UPS and ac motor drives resulting in harmonics production. A phase compensation Resonant Controller (RSC) is proposed for 1-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter using MATLAB simulation. The simulation results are th...

In this paper, the low-power adiabatic dynamic CMOS logic (ADCL) digital pulse width modulation (PWM) has been designed for solid state lighting (SSL) dimming system. Architecture of ADCL digital 3-bit PWM is miniaturized. 60 transistors and 15 capacitors were reduced. Furthermore, the clock cut-off circuit which controls wake-up and sleep mode of ADCL DFFs is proposed. The power consumption of...

This paper presents the prediction-preserving reducibility with membership queries (pwm-reducibility) on formal languages, in particular, simple CFGs and finite unions of regular pattern languages. For the former, we mainly show that DNF formulas are pwm-reducible to CFGs that is sequential or that contains at most one nonterminal. For the latter, we show that both bounded finite unions of regu...
