We perform the frequency-domain waveform inversion based on the residual-selection strategy. In the residual-selection strategy, we classify time-domain residual wavefields into several groups according to the order of absolute amplitudes. Because the residual wavefields are normalized after regularization of the gradient directions within each group, the residual-selection strategy plays a role in enhancing the small-amplitude wavefields, which contributes to improving the deep parts of inverted subsurface images. After classifying residuals in the time domain, they are transformed to the frequency domain. Waveform inversion is performed in the frequency domain using the back-propagation technique which has been popularly used in reverse-time migration. The residual-selection strategy is applied to the SEG/EAGE salt and IFP Marmousi models. Numerical results show that the residual-selection strategy yields better results than the conventional frequency-domain waveform inversion.

This study is to propose a procedure solving scale problem of traditional collaborative filtering (CF) approach. The CF approach generally uses some similarity measures like correlation coefficient. So, as the user of the Website increases, the complexity of computation increases exponentially. To solve the scale problem, this study suggests a clustering model-based approach using Self-Organizing Map (SOM) and RFM (Recency, Frequency, Momentary) method. SOM clusters users into some user groups. The preference score of each item in a group is computed using RFM method. The items are sorted and stored in their preference score order. If an active user logins in the system, SOM determines a user group according to the user's characteristics. And the system recommends items to the user using the stored information for the group. If the user evaluates the recommended items, the system determines whether it will be updated or not. Experimental results applied to MovieLens dataset show that the proposed method outperforms than the traditional CF method comparatively in the recommendation performance and the computation complexity.

In this paper, we propose a new embedded video compression scheme which uses three-dimensional rate-distortion optimization based block coder. After the proposed scheme removes temporal redundancy by applying the motion compensated temporal filtering(MCTF) on input video frames, two dimensional discrete wavelet transform is applied on video frames to remove spatial redundancy. The three-dimensional wavelet coefficients generated in this way are sorted according to their expected rate-distortion slope and encoded by using the three-dimensional block partition coding method. The proposed scheme also uses both the effective color video coding method which maintains embedded features, and the efficient bit-rate control method. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme not only produces embedded bit-streams, but also outperforms existing video compression schemes.

As application development environment changes rapidly, importance of user interface design is increasing. Usually, most of designers are clustering by subjective method of individual to define objects that have relativity in design interface. But, interface which is designed without particular rules just adds inefficiency and complexity of business to user who use this system. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an object oriented design model that allows for flexible development by formalizing the user interface prototype in any GUI environment. The visual cohesion of the user interface is a new set of criteria which has been studied in relation to the user interface contents, and is founded on the basis of the cohesion of the interface as defined using basic software engineering concepts. The visual cohesion includes the issue of how each unit is arranged and grouped, as well as the cohesion of the business events which appear in the programming unit. The interface will become easier to understand and use if the business events are grouped by their inter-relevance within the user interface.

The fabrication process and emission characteristics of gated silicon field emitter arrays(FEAs) using chemical-mechanical-polishing (CMP) method are described. Novel fabrication techniques consisting of two-step dry etching with oxidation of silicon and CMP processes were developed for the formation of sharp tips and clear-cut edged gate electrodes, respectively. The gate height and aperture could be easily controlled by varying the polishing time and pressure in the CMP process. We obtained silicon FEAs having self-aligned and clear-cut edged gate electrode opening by eliminating the dishing problem during the CMP process with an oxide mask layer. The tip height of the finally fabricated FEAs was about 1.1 $\mu$m and the end radius of the tips was smaller than 100 $\AA$. The emission current meaured from the fabricated 2809 tips array was about 31 $\mu$A at a gate voltage of 80 V.

본 연구에서는 catalyst-free 유기금속 화학증착법 (MOCVD)를 이용하여 사파이어 (0001)면 위에 직접 InN nanorods를 성장하였다. InN 박막의 성장에서 TMIn과 $NH_3$를 전구체로 사용하였으며, 캐리어 가스로는 질소를 사용하였다. 성장 전, 기판에 $1100^{\circ}C$에서 3분간 nitridation 처리를 거친 후 온도를 낮춰 $630{\sim}730^{\circ}C$의 온도범위 에서 InN 박막을 성장하였다. 이때 $710^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 박막은 columnar growth의 특성을 보였으며 동일조건에서 80분간 성장시킨 결과 InN nanorods가 성장되었다. 성장시킨 InN nanorod는 X-선 회절 측정법, 주사 전자 현미경 그리고 투과 전자 현미경을 이용하여 그 특성을 분석하였다. 투과 전자 현미경을 통한 분석결과 지름이 150~200 nm이며 그 길이는 수 ${\mu}m$인 InN nanorod가 성공적으로 성장되었음을 확인하였다. 또한 X-선 회절 측정법과 주사 전자 현미경을 통한 분석에서 이들 nanorods가 대부분 c 방향으로 수직하게 정렬되어 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 Ti/Au (120/80 nm)를 전극으로 사용하여 개개의 nanorod의 전기적 특성을 분석한 결과 linear한 I-V특성이 관찰되었으며 비저항은 평균적으로 $0.0024\;{\Omega}cm$ 이었다. transfer 특성의 측정결과 -50V까지 게이트 전압을 인가하여도 드레인 전류의 변화는 매우 적어 doping level이 상당히 높다고 예상가능하다. 또한 mobility는 $133\;cm^2/Vs$로 도출되었다.

상수도 관망은 수원에서 수요절점까지 물을 안정적으로 공급하는 것을 목표로 한다. 상수도 관망의 최적설계는 수리학적 제한조건 (절점의 수압, 관로의 유속)을 만족하는 범위에서 비용을 최소화하는 설계안을 얻는 것으로 Savic and Walters (1997)는 유전 알고리즘 (Genetic Algorithms, Holland 1975)을 적용한 상수도 관망 설계 프로그램인 GANET를 제안하였고, Maier et al. (1996)은 개미군집알고리즘 (Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm, Dorigo et al. 1996)을 상수도 관망 최적설계에 적용한 후 그 결과가 유전 알고리즘에 비해 우수함을 증명하는 등 상수도 관망 최적설계에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되어 오고 있다. 유전알고리즘은 선택, 교차, 돌연변이의 반복계산 과정을 통하여 최적해를 찾는 최적화 기법이다. 이 과정에서 결정변수는 유전자 (Gene)의 집합으로 표현되며, 염색체 (Chromosome) 내에서 근접한 유전 인자들은 일종의 Building Block을 형성하게 된다. Building Block은 좋은 해를 갖는 유전 인자를 높은 확률로 보관하여 지역해에 빠질 가능성을 줄이는 반면, 유전형 (Genotype)이 표현형 (Phenotype)을 충분히 모방하여 표현하지 못한 경우 오히려 최적해의 탐색을 방해할 수 있다는 한계점을 갖는다. 유전 알고리즘을 상수도 관망 최적설계에 적용하였을 때에도 이 한계점은 여실히 드러난다. 관로의 관경을 결정변수로 설정한 후 유전형으로 표현하였을 때, 관망도 상에서 근접하지 않은 두 관로가 염색체 내에서 연속으로 나열된다면 두 관로 간의 연관성이 실제보다 크게 고려되기 때문이다. 한편, 하모니써치 (Harmony Search, Geem et al. 2001) 알고리즘은 즉흥 연주 (Improvisation)를 통해 최상의 화음을 만들어내는 현상으로부터 착안하여 만들어진 최적화기법으로 연산 기법은 무작위선택, 기억회상, 피치조정 등으로 구성되어 있으며, 결정변수에 해당하는 연주자가 독립적으로 행동하며 해를 탐색한다는 점에서 유전알고리즘과 큰 차이를 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 유전알고리즘의 Building Block에 의해 발생하는 오류를 개선하고자, 상수도 관망 최적설계 연구에 많이 사용되는 Hanoi 관망 (Fujiwara and Khang 1990) 관로의 정렬 순서를 여러 가지 기준으로 설정하여 관망데이터를 구축한 후 하모니써치와 유전 알고리즘을 적용하여 최적화를 수행하였고 그 결과를 비교하였다. 그 결과 유전 알고리즘과 달리 하모니써치 알고리즘의 경우, 관로의 나열 순서와 상관없이 우수한 최적해 탐색 결과를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, a plume exhausted from rocket nozzle is investigated by using an unstructured 2-dimensional axisymmetirc DSMC code at various altitude. The small back-pressure to total-pressure ratio($P_b/P_o$) and large $P_b/P_o$ represent low and high altitude condition, respectively. At low altitude, the plume shows a typical complicated structure (e.g. Mach disk) of underexpanded jet while the high altitude plume experiences plain expansion. The various features of exhaust plume is discussed including density, translational/rotational temperature, Mach number and Knudsen number. The results shows that even at 20 km altitude where the freestream Knudsen number is small as $1.5{\times}10^{-5}$, the transitional and rarefied flow regimes can occur locally within the plume. It confirms the necessity of DSMC computation at low altitude.

This paper proposes fingerprint-based positioning methods which can be used in a magnetic resonant wireless power transfer(WPT) system and verifies their performance. A new receiver coil with small orthogonal auxiliary coils is proposed to measure magnetic field signals in three axial directions. The magnitude and phase characteristics of the three-axis electromotive force can be obtained by using the proposed coil. To predict a position with the measured values, we propose a lookup table-based method and linear discriminant analysis-based method. For verification, the proposed methods are applied to predict 75 positions of the 6.78 MHz WPT system, and the performances such as accuracy and computation time are compared.

Of the many factors that affect the clinical outcomes of orthopedic surgery, the surgical procedure is the most important. Robotics have been developed to perform the surgical procedures more accurately and consistently. Robotic surgical procedures in the orthopedic field were developed 20 years ago. Some designs of surgical robots have disappeared due to practical problems and complications, and an another design of surgical robots is emerging. To date, the use of robot surgery in arthroplasty is still controversial in terms of the clinical outcomes, practicality, and cost-effectiveness, even though it has been reported to be effective in the alignment and positioning of components in the field of artificial joints. Early robotic surgery was based mainly on active robot surgery according to the scheduled operation without the intervention of the operator. Recently the semi-active system of robotic surgery has been introduced. In a semi-active system, the robot constrains the surgeon to a haptic boundary defined by the computer based on the 3-dimensional imaging preoperative plan, and the operator can change the preoperative plan through real-time feedback during operation.
