Multilevel inkjet printer employs multiple ink droplets with variable dot size and/or different concentrations intended to preserve high fidelity color reproduction and the appearance of continuous tone. A variety of research efforts on multitoning techniques has progressed toward better image quality. However, banding artifacts appear due to the same dot distributions near the printable output levels. This results in discontinuity and visually unpleasing output, especially at the smooth tone transition region. In this paper, to reduce the banding artifacts, a multitoning method to arrange ink distribution by controlling the blending proportion of adjacent output pixels based on an improved threshold scaling function is proposed. Ink distributions across the banding regions are changed according to two factors of the threshold scaling function because these factors handle the blending point of adjacent output pixel. Therefore, 8 observers, subjectively investigated ink distributions around the printable output levels for a set of the improved threshold scaling function. For a threshold scaling function with the specific factor values, we can achieve smoother visual transition. In the experiment, the proposed method showed a reduction of banding artifacts in both u-ay and color image and represented better Performance of color reproduction.

In this paper we propose three classification algorithms to classify breast tumors that occur in duct into Benign, DCIS(ductal carcinoma in situ) NOS(invasive ductal carcinoma) The general approach for a creating classifier is composed of 2 steps: feature extraction and classification Above all feature extraction for a good classifier is very significance, because the classification performance depends on the extracted features, Therefore in the feature extraction step, we extracted morphology features describing the size of nuclei and texture features The internal structures of the tumor are reflected from wavelet transformed images with 10$\times$ and 40$\times$ magnification. Pariticulary to find the correlation between correct classification rates and wavelet depths we applied 1, 2, 3 and 4-level wavelet transforms to the images and extracted texture feature from the transformed images The morphology features used are area, perimeter, width of X axis width of Y axis and circularity The texture features used are entropy energy contrast and homogeneity. In the classification step, we created three classifiers from each of extracted features using discriminant analysis The first classifier was made by morphology features. The second and the third classifiers were made by texture features of wavelet transformed images with 10$\times$ and 40$\times$ magnification. Finally we analyzed and compared the correct classification rate of the three classifiers. In this study, we found that the best classifier was made by texture features of 3-level wavelet transformed images.

This paper describes the design and fabrication of mid-IR $(3.7-4.8{\mu}m)$ zoom optics which is used for FUR (Forward Looking Infra-Red) system with 320 $\times$ 240 focal plane arrays. The zoom optics has 20 magnification range and maximun 40$^{\circ}$$\times$30$^{\circ}$ of super wide field of view. The locus of zoom is almost linear, which gives easy access of mechanical and electro-mechanical design. The on-axis MTF of zoom optics has been measured and it shows diffraction limited optical performance. For example, it gives 0.692 at 24 cycles/mm at highest magnification, and 7.6 cycles/mradof resolving power is achieved with the operation of attached micro-scanning system.system.

The corrosion durability of steel bridge coatings, such as organic and metallic coatings, is often evaluated by field exposure tests, but such tests take from several years to decades to complete. As a potential method for fast corrosion testing, accelerated exposure tests were considered in this study. The S6-cycle accelerated exposure test, specified in the Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS K5621), was carried out on uncoated structural steels for 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 days, and the resultant weight loss was determined. The weight loss was compared with that obtained from previous field exposure tests, and acceleration factors of the S6-cycle test to field exposure test sites were determined. The application of the S6-cycle accelerated exposure tests to field environments was presented based on the acceleration factor and the amount of flying salt.

The foam of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA)/styrene-vinyl isoprene-styrene triblock copolymer(SVIS) blend was prepared to improve the shock-absorption and compression set characteristics at room temperature. The effects of blowing agent and blend ratio of EVA/SVIS on expansion ratio, cell structure and mechanical properties of the foam were investigated. As the SVIS content increased, the viscosity of blends was increased but the crosslinking rate was slow down, the expansion ratio was decreased. and the specific gravity was increased. At room temperature, the resilience was not affected by increasing the amount of blowing agent. The value of tan ${\delta}$ was increased by increasing the amount of SVIS. As a result, the value of compression set was decreased. This is due to the increased values of specific gravity and crosslinking density of the EVA/SVIS foam.

최근 국내·외에서는 산지에서 발생하는 토사재해를 관리하기 위하여 유사이송해석에 필수적인 요소인 소류사량 추정 방안에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 음향센서가 내장되어 있는 파이프 하이드로폰은 소류사 입자가 충돌 또는 통과하면서 발생하는 음향을 계측하여 소류사량을 간접적으로 계측하는 방법이다. 하이드로폰에 계측된 음향신호는 신호의 정점을 연결한 포락선 신호로 변환되며, 증폭기에 의해 다양한 배율의 신호로 증폭된다. 이렇게 증폭되어진 여러 배율의 신호와 원시신호는 데이터로거에 의해 지속적으로 기록되고, 가공처리하며 검출된 음향 펄스 수와 특정 시간간격의 음압적분치를 이용하여 소류사량을 추정하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 하이드로폰에 계측되는 소류사의 충돌음으로부터 정량적인 소류사량을 추정하기 위한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 단일 입경 6종류와 유속 3종류 및 소류사량 5단계로 변화를 주었으며 디노이징 필터를 통해 원시신호의 노이즈를 제거함으로써, 소류사량 추정률의 성능을 높이고자 하였다. 원시신호와 디노이징 음향신호를 비교·분석한 결과 제안된 방법이 기존 원시신호 보다 높은 소류사량 추정률을 보이는 것으로 나타났으며, 단일 입경 연속공급실험을 수행하여 소류사량 추정 가능성을 확인하였다. 향후 혼합 입경 소류사량 추정 실험 및 다양한 입경을 활용한다면 높은 소류사량 추정률을 얻을 것으로 기대된다.

열수축성 튜브 제조에 적합한 조성을 얻기 위하여 PVC의 방사선가교에 대하여 검토하였다. 중합도가 각각 다른 PVC에 가소제, 가교제를 변화시켜 배합한 혼합물을 방사선 가교시켰을 때 가교도는 가교제, 가소제, 중합도 및 조사선량이 증가됨에 따라 증가되었다. 가교제로서는 삼관능성 단량체가 높은 가교효율을 나타내었다. 가교 PVC 필름의 열수축성은 연신배율과 수축 온도를 높여줌으로써 증가되었으나 가교제 및 가소제의 증가량에 의한 열수축성의 증가는 나타내지 않았고 저중합도 PVC의 열수축성은 극히 저조하였다.

In order to use the LED video wall in the broadcasting studio, there are a few things to be aware of. First, since the pixels are closely arranged, a moire phenomenon may occur due to a short arrangement period, and second, the distance between pixels (pixel pitch) may be recorded on the image sensor of the broadcasting camera. When moire occurs or pixel pitch is observed, viewers feel uncomfortable. Moire effect can be reduced by adjusting the shooting distance or angle of the camera, but in order to prevent the pixel pitch from being recorded on the image sensor, secure a sufficient distance between the LED video wall and camera. even when the distance secured, the zoom lens used in the broadcasting studio must be operated by appropriately changing the magnification. If the focal length is changed by changing the magnification to obtain a desired angle of view, the pixel pitch may be unintentionally recorded. In this study we propose the range that the pixel pitch is not observed while changing the magnification ratio of the zoom lens when the distance from the video wall is sufficiently secured. The content was played back on the LED video wall and the LED video wall was recorded on the server using an HD camera equipped with a B4 mount zoom lens
