The detector of a focal-plane-array mid-wave infrared (MWIR) camera has different response characteristics for each detector pixel, resulting in nonuniformity between detector pixels. In addition, image nonuniformity occurs due to heat generation inside the camera during operation. To solve this problem, in the process of camera manufacturing it is common to use a gain-and-offset table generated from a blackbody to correct the difference between detector pixels. One method of correcting nonuniformity due to internal heat generation during the operation of the camera generates a new offset value based on input frame images. This paper proposes a technique for dividing an input image into block image patches and generating offset values using only homogeneous patches, to correct the nonuniformity that occurs during camera operation. The proposed technique may not only generate a nonuniformity-correction offset that can prevent motion marks due to camera-gaze movement of the acquired image, but may also improve nonuniformity-correction performance with a small number of input images. Experimental results show that distortion such as flow marks does not occur, and good correction performance can be confirmed even with half the number of input images or fewer, compared to the traditional method.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the micro-implant height and anterior hook height to prevent maxillary six anterior teeth from lingual tipping and extruding during space closure. We manufactured maxillary dental arch form, bracket and wire, using the computer aided three-dimensional finite element method. Bracket was $.022'{\times}.028'$ slot size and attached to tooth surface. Wire was $.019'{\times}.025'$ stainless steel and $.032'{\times}.032'$ stainless steel hook was attached to wire between lateral incisor and canine. Length of hook was 8mm and force application points were marked at intervals of In. Four micro-implants were implanted on alveolar bone between second premolar and first molar. The heights of them were 4, 6, 8, 10mm starting from wire. We analyzed initial displacement of teeth by various force application point applying force of 150gm to each micro-implant and anterior hook. The conclusions of 4his study are as the following : 1. When the micro-implant height was 4m and the anterior hook height was 5mm and below, anterior teeth were tipped lingually. When the anterior hook height was 6mm and above, anterior teeth were tipped labially. 2. When the micro-implant height was 6mm and the anterior hook height was 6mm and below, the anterior teeth were tipped lingually. When the anterior hook height was 6m and above, the anterior teeth were tipped labially. But lingual tipping of anterior teeth decreased and labial tipping Increased when the micro-implant height was 6mm, compared with 4mm micro-implant height. 3. When the micro-implant height was 8mm and the anterior hook height was 2mm, the anterior teeth were tipped lingually. When the anterior hook height was 3mm and above, labial tipping movement of the anterior teeth increased proportionally. 4. When the micro-implant height was 10mm and the anterior hook height was 2mm and above, labial tipping of the anterior teeth increased proportionally. 5. As the anterior hook height increased, aterior teeth were tipped more labially. But extrusion occurred on canine and premolar area because of the increase of wire distortion. 6. Movement of the posterior teeth was tipped distally during maxillary six anterior teeth retraction using micro-im plant because of the friction between bracket and were Based on the results of this study, we could predict the pattern of the tooth movement according to position of micro-implant and height of anterior hook. It seems that we can find the force application point for proper tooth movement in consideration of inclination of anterior anterior teeth, periodontal condition, overjet and overbite

With the growth of financial industry with smartphone, interest on user authentication using smartphone has been arisen in these days. There are various type of biometric user authentication techniques, but gait recognition using accelerometer sensor in smartphone does not seem to develop remarkably. This paper suggests the method of user authentication using accelerometer sensor embedded in smartphone. Specifically, calibrate the sensor data from smartphone with 3D-transformation, extract features from transformed data and do principle component analysis, and learn model with using gaussian mixture model. Next, authenticate user data with confidence interval of GMM model. As result, proposed method is capable of user authentication with accelerometer sensor on smartphone as a high degree of accuracy(about 96%) even in the situation that environment control and limitation are minimum on the research.

A two-dimensional direct numerical simulation was performed to investigate the evolution and vortical structure of a single vortex in reacting and non-reacting jet flow fields. A predictor-corrector-type numerical scheme with a low Mach number approximation was used, and a two-step global reaction mechanism was adopted as the combustion model. Through the comparisons of single vortex behaviors in reacting and non-reacting jet flow fields, it was found that the evolution characteristics and vortical structure of the single vortex were significantly influenced by a outer vortex that was generated from the buoyance effect as well as the chemical heat release. Furthermore, it was also identified that the differences of the vortical structure in reacting and non-reacting jet flow fields were mainly attributed to the thermal expansion, Baroclinic torque and buoyance effect.

In this paper, a novel framework that synthesizes and clones facial expression in parameter spaces is presented. To overcome the difficulties in manipulating face geometry models with high degrees of freedom, many parameterization methods have been introduced. In this paper, a data-driven parameterization method is proposed that represents a variety of expressions with a small set of fundamental independent movements based on the ICA technique. The face deformation due to the parameters is also learned from the data to capture the nonlinearity of facial movements. With this parameterization, one can control the expression of an animated character's face by the parameters. By separating the parameterization and the deformation learning process, we believe that we can adopt this framework for a variety applications including expression synthesis and cloning. The experimental result demonstrates the efficient production of realistic expressions using the proposed method.

The measured ground water behavior by TDR (time domain reflectometer) sensors were analyzed by the data filtering technique such as moving average method and Fourier transform, and the ground water level and unsaturated zone were tried to be determined numerically. At first, the variation of TDR data according to the saturation degree was measured by lab test, which is translated as a function of saturation degree. Then, changes of ground water level and lateral seepage in field conditions were simulated using acrylic pipe, and the measured data were analyzed to make calibration curve. Furthermore, TDR sensors were installed into the in-situ embankment to insure the field application. The saturation degree, unsaturated and dried zones were determined from the measured data.

Peak expiratory flow rate(PEF) is one of the most important diagnostic parameters in spirometry. PEF occurs in a very short duration during the forced expiratory maneuver, which could lead to measurement error due to non-ideal dynamic characteristic of the transducer. In such case the initial slope of the flow rate signal determines the accuracy of the measured PEF. The present study considered this initial slope as a parameter to compensate PEF. The 26 standard flow rate signals recommended by the American Thoracic Society(ATS) were flown through the air flow transducer followed by simultaneous measurements of PEF and maximum transducer output$(N_{PEF})$. $N_{PEF}$-PEF satisfied a quadratic equation in general, however, two signals (ATS #2 and #26) having large initial slopes deviated from the fitting equation to a significant degree. The relative error was found to be in a linear relationship with the initial slope, thus, $N_{PEF}$ was appropriately compensated to provide accurate PEF with mean relative error less than only 1%. The 99% confidence interval of the mean relative error was less than a half of the error limit of 5% recommended by ATS. Therefore, PEF can be very accurately determined by compensating the transducer output based on the initial slope, which should be a useful technique for air flow transducer calibration.

In this study, we presented a research about the development of the phoropter simulation program for education using the 3-D virtual reality in order to study the ophthalmic optics rather efficiently. Especially, by putting the facility such as the refractive error analysis of the eyeball in the cyber tutor inside, we have made the learner to learn and confirm the present situation of refractive correction through refractive power of principal meridians. By organizing the system which induces the active involvement of the learner and showing the result of the execution to the learner intuitively, the implementation of the more efficient education-environment can be possible. Consequently, it is expected that this program will be greatly helpful for the optician training as well as the ophthalmic optics education. As a next phase of study, we will develope the development technique of this simulator more and extend the cyber tutor contents more and make the web service version of this program to be provided through the internet network in order to inspire the learning desire of the learner more and more.

Decision tree is one of the most useful analysis methods for various data mining functions, including prediction, classification, etc, from massive data. Decision tree grows by splitting nodes, during which the purity increases. It is needed to stop splitting nodes when the purity does not increase effectively or new leaves does not contain meaningful number of records. Pruning is done if a branch does not show certain level of performance. By pruning, the structure of decision tree is changed and it is implied that the previous splitting of the parent node was not effective. It is also implied that the splitting of the ancestor nodes were not effective and the choices of attributes and criteria in splitting them were not successful. It should be noticed that new attributes or criteria might be selected to split such nodes for better tries. In this paper, we suggest a procedure to modify decision tree by Fuzzy theory and splitting as an integrated approach.
