Techniques based on thresholding of wavelet coefficients are gaining popularity for denoising data because of the reasonable performance at the low complexity. The VisuShrink which removes the noise with the universal threshold is one of the techniques. The universal threshold is proportional to the noise deviation and the number of data samples. In general, because the noise deviation is not known, one needs to estimate the deviation for determining the value of the universal threshold. But, only for the finest scale wavelet coefficients, it has been known the way of estimating the noise deviation, so the noise in coarse scales cannot be removed with the VisuShrink. We propose here a new denoising method which removes the noise in each scale except the coarsest scale by Visushrink method. The noise deviation at each band is estimated by the monotonic transform and weighted deviation, the product of estimated noise deviation by the weight, is applied to the universal threshold. By making use of the universal threshold and the Soft-Threshold technique, the noise in each band is removed. The denoising characteristics of the proposed method is compared with that of the traditional VisuShrink and SureShrink method. The result showed that the proposed method is effective in denoising on Gaussian noise and quantization noise.

This paper addresses a new surface reconstruction scheme for approximating the isosurface from a set of tomographic cross sectional images. Differently from the novel Marching cube algorithm, our method does not extract iso-density surface(isosurface) directly from the voxels but calculates the iso-density point(isopoint) first. After building the relatively coarse initial mesh by the Cell-boundary algorithm approximating the isosurface, it produces the final isosurface by iteratively shrinking and smoothing the initial mesh. Comparing with the Marching Cube algorithm, our method is robust and does not make any crack in resulting surface model. Furthermore, the proposed method surmounts the O(1)-adjacency limitation of MC in defining the isopoints by permitting the O(2) and O(3)-adjacent isopoints in surface reconstruction, and can produce more accurate isosurface. According to experiments, it is proved to be very robust and efficient for isosurface reconstruction from cross sectional images.

The purpose of this study is to design a heat insulator for reducing available energy loss in stratified thermal storage tank. Heat insulator is operated by buoyancy effect from density difference between hot and cold water without extra equipment. Analysis model using the Matlab Simulink was developed to estimate the internal temperature distribution in thermal storage tank and also used to select proper material and thickness of the heat insulator. Operational feasibility was confirmed through reduced scale experiment. As a result, heat insulator can effectively delay the formation of thermal boundary layer between hot and cold water. In reduced scale experiment, heat insulator can preserve additional 1540J of available energy. When applied to the real thermal storage tank, increase of 6% thermal storage efficiency can be expected.

The aim of this research is to find out how to cope with and manage environmental uncertainty to be effective. Environmental conditions of complexity and change create a greater need to gather information and to respond based on that information. Despite of the governmental campaign 'creative economy, flourishing culture', governmental subsidies are becoming more unstable. The prosperity of culture means that artists can create great works and people can enjoy them without boundaries. This research investigated Boundary-spanning roles through the strategic formulation and implementation. Key factors of strategy are information and knowledge management. Boundary-spanning roles link and coordinate an organization with important elements in the external environment. It is primarily concerned with the exchange of information to detect and bring into the organization information about changes in the environment and send information into the environment that presents the organization in a favorable light. Two themes in this article are that organizations can learn and adapt to the environment and that organizations can change and control the environment.

디스플레이 기술이 발전함에 따라 다양한 크기의 디스플레이를 탑재한 장치들이 등장하게 되었고, 다양한 디스플레이 크기만큼 다양한 해상도를 사용하고 있다. 때문에 비디오 코덱과 scaler는 보편적으로 함께 사용된다. 그러나 기존의 scaler는 비디오 코덱의 복호화기와 화면 해상도 변환 모듈이 독립적으로 구성되고, 서로 간에 정보를 이용하지 않으므로 시스템의 성능 개선에 한계가 존재하였다. 즉, 비디오 코덱의 복호화기는 비트스트림으로부터 복호한 정보를 바탕으로 영상을 복원하고, 복원영상은 up/down scaler에서 확대/축소를 수행한다. 하지만 비디오 코덱의 비트스트림에 존재하는 정보는 영상의 특성을 반영하기 때문에 up/down scaler에서 비디오 코덱의 복호화기에서 복호된 정보를 이용하면 복잡도의 증가 없이 효율적인 확대/축소를 수행할 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 비디오 코덱 중 차세대 비디오 코덱인 H.264/AVC 복호화기에서 생성된 복원 영상에 대해서 별도로 영상의 특성을 계산하는 모듈 없이 H.264/AVC 복호화기에서 복원된 정보 중 인트라 모드 정보를 바탕으로 영상의 특성에 맞는 up/down scaler를 구현하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 기존의 scaler들보다 물체의 경계영역을 더 선명하게 확대하는 효과를 보인다.

This paper proposes an algorithm for the capacitance extraction of general 3-dimensional conductors in an ideal uniform dielectric that uses a high-order quadrature approximation method combined with the typical first-order collocation method to enhance the accuracy and adopts an efficient matrix-vector product algorithm for the model-order reduction to achieve efficiency. The proposed method enhances the accuracy using the quadrature method for interconnects containing corners and vias that concentrate the charge density. It also achieves the efficiency by reducing the model order using the fact that large parts of system matrices are of numerically low rank. This technique combines an SVD-based algorithm for the compression of rank-deficient matrices and Gram-Schmidt algorithm of a Krylov-subspace iterative technique for the rapid multiplication of matrices. It is shown through the performance evaluation procedure that the combination of these two techniques leads to a more efficient algorithm than Gaussian elimination or other standard iterative schemes within a given error tolerance.

In this paper, we present a new iso-density surface reconstruction scheme based on a hierarchy on the input volume data and the output mesh data. From the input volume data, we construct a hierarchy of volumes, called a volume pyramid, based on a 3D dilation filter. After constructing the volume pyramid, we extract a coarse base mesh from the coarsest resolution of the pyramid with the Cell-boundary representation scheme. We iteratively fit this mesh to the iso-points extracted from the volume data under O(3)-adjacency constraint. For the surface fitting, the shrinking process and the smoothing process are adopted as in the SWIS (Shrink-wrapped isosurface) algorithm[6], and we subdivide the mesh to be able to reconstruct fine detail of the isosurface. The advantage of our method is that it generates a mesh which can be utilized by several multiresolution algorithms such as compression and progressive transmission.

RGB나 다중분광영상은 높은 공간 해상도로 인해 크기가 작은 물질의 클래스를 부여하는데 있어서는 효과적이지만 분광해상도가 낮아 다양한 종류의 지표물 분류 및 분광적으로 미세한 차이를 보이는 대상 체간의 분류에는 한계를 가지고 있다. 그러나 초분광 영상(Hyperspectral Image)은 대상 객체의 분광 반사곡선을 수백개의 연속적인 분광 파장대 영역으로 상세하게 해당 물체의 정보를 취득할 수 있는 기능을 가지고 있다. 최근 국내에서도 초분광 영상을 이용한 토지피복도 작성 및 환경 모니터링 등 다양한 분야에 적용하기 위한 연구가 시도되고 있다. 최근에는 드론과 같은 소형 UAV를 활용하여 경제적인 비용으로 시공간해상도가 높은 영상을 획득하는 것이 가능하게 되었으며 분광정보를 수집하는 영상 장비의 발전으로 드론에 탑재가 가능한 경량의 소형 초분광센서가 개발됨으로써 보다 높은 분광해상도의 영상을 취득할 수 있게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 효율적인 하천환경조사를 위해 UAV를 활용하여 고해상도 초분광 영상을 취득하였으며, 차원축소법과 분류기 적용에 따른 공간 분류 정확도 분석을 통해 하천환경에 대한 분류 및 평가를 실시하였다. 연구지역에서 획득한 초분광 영상은 노이즈로 인한 영향을 줄이고자 MNF와 PCA 기법으로 차원축소를 수행하였으며, MLC(Maximum Likelihood Classification)와 SVM(Support Vector Machine), SAM(Spectral Angle Mapping) 감독분류기법을 적용하여 하천환경특성에 따른 공간분류를 수행하였다. 연구 결과 MNF기법으로 차원 축소한 영상을 적용하여 MLC 감독분류를 수행하였을 때 가장 높은 분류정확도를 얻을 수 있었으나, 일부 클래스 및 수역의 경계와 그림자 공간에서 주로 오분류가 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Fourier Descriptors(FD) is a common way for representing the boundary of an object. In this paper, an algorithm has been implemented to do object recognition by using FD. This is applied to various tool object, and is tested. This implementation contains two parts: image acquisition and object recognition. Appropriate lighting, viewing angle, and strong contrast of background and object are taken into account in this aspect. Minimum distances are calculated by using FD's and boundary matching among objects on the process of object recognition. Rotation, translation and scaling of the object will not influence the performance of the algorithm. Experiments show that we can use only one fourth of 1024 FD coefficients to do raped object recognition.
