Image de-snowing aims at eliminating the negative influence by snow particles and improving scene understanding in images. In this paper, a perceptual generative adversarial network based a single image snow removal method is proposed. The residual U-Net is designed as a generator to generate the snow free image. In order to handle various sizes of snow particles, the inception module with different filter kernels is adopted to extract multiple resolution features of the input snow image. Except the adversarial loss, the perceptual loss and total variation loss are employed to improve the quality of the resulted image. Experimental results indicate that our method can obtain excellent performance both on synthetic and realistic snow images in terms of visual observation and commonly used visual quality indices.

To determine if water-jet nozzle moves and water jetting are effective according to the location of the fire, this study examined the automatic fire-tracking water cannon system and aan indoor hydrant system, such as water jet centered directivity, water jet range maintainability and water jet shape uniformity. First, an examination to find the center of fire accurately from this system design showed that the water jet centered test was accurate. Second, the water jet range test results showed that when water is jetted at the maximum water jet radius, the water jet shows an inaccurate result but within the allowable tolerance range. Finally, the water-jet shape test result confirmed that there are no problems in setting the block from the algorithm design.

This paper is on a design of the high-speed cipher IC using IDEA algorithm. The chip is consists of six functional blocks. The principal blocks are encryption and decryption key generator, input data circuit, encryption processor, output data circuit, operation mode controller. In subkey generator, the design goal is rather decrease of its area than increase of its computation speed. On the other hand, the design of encryption processor is focused on rather increase of its computation speed than decrease of its area. Therefore, the pipeline architecture for repeated processing and the modular multiplier for improving computation speed are adopted. Specially, there are used the carry select adder and modified Booth algorithm to increase its computation speed at modular multiplier. To input the data by 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit according to the operation mode, it is designed so that buffer shifts by 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit. As a result of simulation by 0.25 $\mu\textrm{m}$ process, this IC has achieved the throughput of 1Gbps in addition to its small area, and used 12,000gates in implementing the algorithm.

This paper presents an System-on-Chip(SoC) implementation of fingerprint feature extraction system. Typical fingerprint feature extraction systems employ binarization and thinning processes which cause many extraction errors for low qualify fingerprint images and degrade the accuracy of the entire fingerprint recognition system. To solve these problems, an algorithm directly following ridgelines without the binarization and thinning process has been proposed. However, the computational requirement of the algorithm makes it hard to implement it on SoCs by using software only. This paper presents an implementation of the ridge-following algorithm onto SoCs. The algorithm has been modified to increase the efficiency of hardwares. Each function block of the algorithm has been implemented in hardware or in software by considering its computational complexity, cost and utilization of the hardware, and efficiency of the entire system. The fingerprint feature extraction system has been developed as an IP for SoCs, hence it can be used on many kinds of SoCs for smart cards.

For systematic pet management, the pet registration system has established. It makes the owner of the pet is given greater responsibility through the pet registration system but it also provided with welfare. One of the advantages of the pet registration system is that prepare system what return to owner quickly and safety through information inquiry when the pets are lost. But there are some conflict with the law in the information inquiry, so it occurs interfere the system. In this paper, we propose using the Smart Contract to finding the missing animal effectively. Proposed method discloses only the partially information. Thus it will be eliminated conflict parts, and increases the information accessibility to increase the number of people who can inquiry information. In addition, keeping the RFID inquired feature for compatible with the existing system. The smart contract querying enables quickly and precision access to information. Lastly, compare the proposed method with existing method to see the improvement.

Most Bluetooth devices are commonly used in various ways these days, but they can be often lost due to small-size devices. However, most Bluetooth protocol do not provide authentication functions to legitimate owners, and thus someone who obtains the lost Bluetooth device can easily connect to their smart devices to use it. In this paper, we propose NBAS can authenticates legitimate owners using NFT on lossy Bluetooth devices.NBAS generates a digital wallet on the blockchain using the decentralized network Ethereum blockchain and facilitating the MAC address of the Bluetooth device in the digital wallet. The owner of the wallet uses a private key to certify the Bluetooth device using NFT. The initial pairing time of NBAS was 10.25 sec, but the reconnection time was 0.007 sec similar to the conventional method, and the pairing rejection time for unapproved users was 1.58 sec on average. Therefore, the proposed NBAS effectively shows the device authentication over the conventional Bluetooth.
