This paper examines the effect of storage location configurations on dual command cycle times for the efficient operation of automated storage/retrieval systems. We use a contour line approach to determine storage location configurations. We present a contour line configuration generating scheme and a location indexing scheme. Given a contour line configuration, the location indexing scheme provides a unique priority to each location. The location priority is then used for determining the storage location of an incoming load. To investigate the effect of alternative contour line configurations on dual command cycle times, we perform a series of experiments under various storage policies.

Rapid advances in technology and changes in human and cultural activities bring about changes to the earth surface in terms of spatial extension as well as time frame of the changes. Such advances introduce shorter updating frequency of maps and geospatial database. To satisfy these requirements, recent research efforts in the geoinformatics field have been focused on the automation and speeding up of the mapping processes which resulted in products such as the digital photogrammetric workstation, GPSIINS, applications of satellite imagery, automatic feature extraction and the LiDAR system. The possibility of automatically extracting buildings and generating contours from airborne LiDAR data has received much attention because LiDAR data produce promising results. However, compared with the manually derived building footprints using traditional photogrammetric process, more investigation and analysis need to be carried out in terms of accuracy and efficiency. On the other hand, generation of the contours with LiDAR data is more efficient and economical in terms of the quality and accuracy. In this study, the effects of various conditions of the pre-processing phase and the subsequent building extraction and contour generation phases for digital mapping have on the accuracy were investigated.

The existing visualization methods using the satellite images or map images require complicated preprocessing stages and a large amount of visual data to represent the 3-D terrain. This paper presents a 3-D visualization method for geographical information, which enables automatic generation of 3-D terrain. It is generated based, on contour information obtained from a numerical map. This paper also introduces a method that resolves the three main problems needed to visualize 3-D terrain from contour lines such as correspondence, tiling, and branching. The virtual contour line is defined to extend a distorted contour line to have a similar shape to the corresponding contour line that is used, to generate 3-D surfaces. It helps that 3-D terrain is represented exactly and in detail.

Depth information is one of the most important factor for the recognition of a digital face image. Range images are very useful, when comparing one face with other faces, because of implicating depth information. As the processing for the whole fare produces a lot of calculations and data, face images ran be represented in terms of a vector of feature descriptors for a local area. In this paper, depth areas of a 3 dimensional(3D) face image were extracted by the contour line from some depth value. These were resampled and stored in consecutive location in feature vector using multiple feature method. A comparison between two faces was made based on their distance in the feature space, using Euclidian distance. This paper reduced the number of index data in the database and used fewer feature vectors than other methods. Proposed algorithm can be highly recognized for using local depth information and less feature vectors or the face.

Many studies have been carried out for automatic extraction of building by LiDAR data or airphoto. Combining the benefits of 3D location information data and shape information data of image can improve the accuracy. So, in this research building recognition algorithm based on contour was used to improve accuracy of building recognition by LiDAR data and elaborate building boundary recognition by airphoto. Building recognition algorithm based on contour can generate building boundary and roof structure information. Also it shows better accuracy of building detection than the existing recognition methods based on TIN or NDSM. Out of creating buffers in regular size on the building boundary which is presumed by contour, this research limits the boundary area of airphoto and elaborate building boundary to fit into edge of airphoto by double active contour. From the result of this research, 3D building boundary will be able to be detected by optimal matching on the constant range of extracted boundary in the future.

A CCTV system reduces some number of cameras if we use convex-mirror. In this case, convex-mirror Image distorted, we need transformation to flat images. In the center of mirror images, a transformed image has no distortion, but at near boundary image has plentiful distortion. This distortion is caused by occlusion of angled ray and diffraction. We know that the linear filtering approach cannot separate noise from signal where their Fourier spectra overlap. But using a non-linear discretization method, we shall reduce blurred noise. In this paper, we introduce the backward solution of nonlinear wave equation for reducing blurred noise and biased expansion of equilibrium contour. We propose, after applying the introduced method, and calculate with discretization method. To analysis the experimental result, we investigate to PSNR and get about 4dB better than current method.

A new practical implementation of a facial verification system using cumulative histogram of surface curvatures for the local and contour line areas is proposed, in this paper. The approach works by finding the nose tip that has a protrusion shape on the face. In feature recognition of 3D face images, one has to take into consideration the orientated frontal posture to normalize after extracting face area from the original image. The feature vectors are extracted by using the cumulative histogram which is calculated from the curvature of surface for the contour line areas: 20, 30 and 40, and nose, mouth and eyes regions, which has depth and surface characteristic information. The L1 measure for comparing two feature vectors were used, because it was simple and robust. In the experimental results, the maximum curvature achieved recognition rate of 96% among the proposed methods.

실시간 동적 GPS 측위를 이용한 해저수심측량은 GPS 수신기가 이동중인 상태에서 신호단절 없이 연속적인 수심측정이 가능하며 등수심도와 등고선 제작에 정확한 위치를 결정할 수 있고, 음향측심기는 발사파와 수신파의 도달시간을 측정하여 수심을 관측할 수 있기 때문에 실시간으로 정확한 3차원 측량이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 해안지역에 대한 지형 분석을 하기 위하여 기준점에 대한 정지관측을 실시하여 좌표변환계수를 산출하고, 이로부터 실시간 동적 GPS 측량과 음향측심기를 이용하여 해운대 해수욕장과 해안을 관측하였다. 1:1,200 축척의 수치지도에서 추출한 수치표고모델에서의 체적은 97953.9 ㎥이며, 실시간 동적 GPS와 음향측심기를 이용하여 추출한 수치표고모델에서의 체적은 95994.9 ㎥로 나타났다. 이는 수치지도에서의 체적과 측량결과의 체적이 단지 2.0%정도로 나타나 실시간 동적 GPS와 음향측심기의 결합에 의한 해저수심측량이 매우 성공적임을 알 수 있었다.
