An image retrieval system retrieves and offers same of similar image based on various features of image. This paper present a brand image retrieval system based on color and shape of image. We use the image for a color information by dividing into the area and extracting the area color distribution histogram. We use for the shape information by preprocessing of the boundary extraction, the centroid extraction, angular sampling etc. and calculating of the sum of the distance from the centroid to the boundary, the standard deviation, and the rate of long axis to short axis. We accomplish the retrieval through a similarity measurement by using the color and shape information which is extracted in this way.

이미지 검색 시스템이란 이미지가 갖는 다양한 특징을 바탕으로 똑같거나 유사한 이미지를 검색하여 제공하는 시스템이다. 본 논문에서는 이미지의 컬러와 형태를 기반으로 한 브랜드 이미지 검색 시스템을 제시한다. 이미지를 영역별로 분할하여 영역별 컬러 분포 히스토그램을 추출하여 컬러 정보로 이용하고 경계면 추출, 무게 중심 추출, angular 샘플링 등의 전처리 과정과 무게 중심으로부터 경계면까지 거리의 합, 표준 편차, 장/단축 비율을 계산하여 형태정보로 이용한다. 이렇게 추출된 컬러와 형태 정보를 이용하여 유사성 측정을 통한 검색을 수행한다.

손실 채널의 데이터 손실을 보상하는 오류 정정 부호로 주로 사용되는 LT 부호는 일반적으로 RSD (robust soliton distribution)을 따르는 nonsystematic 구조를 가진다. RSD 를 따르는 유한한 길이의 LT 부호의 경우 높은 손실률 가진 채널 환경에서는 적합하지 않다. 본 논문은 기존의 RSD 를 다소 변형하여 systematic LT 부호에 적합한 무게 분포를 설계 방법을 제시하고, 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존의 RSD 를 이용한 LT 부호와 논문에서 제안하는 systematic 성질을 가진 LT 부호의 성능을 비교해 본다.

Passive cavitation imaging method is used to observe the ultrasonic waves generated when a group of bubbles collapses. A problem with passive cavitation imaging is a low resolution and large side lobe levels. Since ultrasound signals generated by passive cavitation take the form of a pulse, the amplitude distribution of signals received across the receive channels varies depending on the direction of incidence. Both the centroid and flatness were calculated to determine weights at imaging points in order to discriminate between the main and side lobe signals from the signal amplitude distribution of the received channel data and to reduce the side lobe levels. The centroid quantifies how the channel data are distributed across the receive channel, and the flatness measures the variance of the channel data. We applied the centroid weight and the flatness to the passive cavitation image constructed using the delay-and-sum focusing and minimum variance beamforming methods to improve the image quality. Using computer simulation and experiment, we show that the application of weighting in delay-and-sum and minimum variance beamforming reduces side lobe levels.

We present upper bounds for the maximum-likelihood decoding performance of particular LDPC codes and turbo-like codes with particular interleavers. Previous research developed upper bounds for LDPC codes and turbo-like codes using ensemble codes or the uniformly interleaved assumption, which bound the performance averaged over all ensemble codes or all interleavers. Proposed upper bounds are based on the simple bound and estimated weight distributions including the exact several smallest distance terms because if either estimated weight distributions on their own or the exact several smallest distance terms only are used, an accurate bound can not be obtained.

Recently the shape information of the visual object in the scene is more important, as the completion of the MPEG-4 standard and the progress of the MPEG-7 standard. This paper represents the study of effective coding method of vertices that are used in the polygonal approximation to represent the feature of visual object. In the proposed method, we make the centers of gravity of triangles that are made using the vertices of polygonal approximation and encode them sequentially We can get a coding gain because the centers of the gravity of triangles have narrower dynamic ranges.

This study was conducted to obtain basic information for the improvement of garlic cultivars. Local varieties of garlic were collected from 4 major production area in Korea and ecological characteristics were compared. The number of cloves per bulb showed a great variation in the range from 4 to 15. However, more than 70% of examined garlics had 6~8 cloves per bulb. Clove weight also differred between local varieties, thus, the range of clove weight was distributed from 1.0g to 7.6g and this tendency was also similar within a same local variety. Although clove weight was relatively higher in bulbs containing 6~8 cloves, bulb weight was higher in bulbs containing more cloves.

간암은 세계적으로 흔한 악성 종양에 속하지만 우리나라에서 간암은 위암, 폐암 다음으로 높은 사망률을 보이며 이러한 간암은 조기진단이 요구된다. 전문의는 간암의 진단을 위해 조영증강 CT영상을 이용하여 육안으로 간암을 판별하는데, 조영증강 CT영상을 이용한 진단은 주 종양의 진단에는 도움이 되지만 주 종양에서 주위 간 조직으로 전이된 간암들을 판별하는 것은 어려우며 실제로 시술 중에야 전이된 간암의 존재를 알 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 조영증강 CT영상을 이용하여 간과 주 종양을 자동으로 추출한 후, 미세하게 주 종양 주위로 전위된 간암들을 추출하는 방법을 제안하여 전문의를 보조할 수 있는 보조 전문가 시스템으로서의 유용성을 확인하고자한다. 조영증강 CT영상은 흉부에서 5mm간격으로 40 ${\sim}$ 50장정도로 촬영된다. 조영증강 CT영상을 이용하여 간 영역을 추출하기 위해서 간의 형태학적 정보 그리고 명암도와 명암의 분포도를 이용한 양자화 기법 등을 적용하여 추출하며 추출된 간 영역에서 간암의 후보 영역 추출은 간암의 명암도와 형태학적 특징 정보를 이용하여 추출한다. 본 논문에서는 간암의 추출을 위해 맵 상에 흩어져 분포되어 있는 유사 패턴들의 무게 중심을 찾아 하나의 패턴으로 그룹화 하는 개선된 SOM 알고리즘을 제안하여 간암 판별에 적용한 후, 기존의 SOM 알고리즘과 비교 분석한 결과. 본 논문에서 제안된 SOM 알고리즘을 적용한 간암 추출이 더 효율적임을 확인 할 수 있었으며, 전문의가 판별한 것과 비교 분석한 결과, 전문의를 보조할 수 있는 보조 전문가 시스템으로서의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study investigated the relationship of fuel weight and depth together with slope on the spread of forest fire. Fire spread was faster on the greater slope in forested land. Fire had a greater spread rate with lighter fuel weight. The thickness of the fuel bed and forest fire spread rate were not related. The fire spread rate was closely related to the slope and weight of the fuel bed (significant at 0.01, 0.05, respectively). The thickness of the fuel bed was not significant (0.05).

An experimental study has been conducted for the design of the regenerative oxy-fuel combustion system with ceramic ball. Various design parameters are considered such as ball size, regenerator weight, and combustion load. Regenerative system with a pair of oxygen burners and regenerators is set up and the temperature of oxygen and exhaust gas passing through ball regenerator is measured. It is shown that the temperature distributions with time are affected by ball diameter and regenerator weight, and the significant temperature change is observed by combustion load. As the ball size decreases and the regenerator weight increases, the regenerating temperature efficiency increases. It is found that the heat recovery ratio is low despites of high regeneration temperature efficiency.
