In a two-stage two-level balanced nested design, type I error rates for the parametric tests and the rank transformed tests for the main effects and the nested effects are in overall similar to each other. Furthermore, powers for the rank transformed statistic for the main effects and the nested effects in a two-stage two-level balanced nested design are generally superior to powers for the parametric statistic When the effect size and the sample size are increased, we can find that powers increase for the parametric statistic and the rank transformed statistic are dramatically improved. Especially for the case of the fixed effects in the asymmetric distributions such as an exponential distribution, powers for the rank transformed tests are quite high rather than powers for the parametric tests.

In $4{\times}4$ graeco-latin square design, powers of rank transformed statistic for testing the main effect are superior to powers of parametric statistic without regard to the effect structure with equally or unequally spaced effect levels as well as the type of population distributions such as exponential, double exponential, normal and uniform distribution. As numbers of block effect or effect sizes are decreased, powers of rank transformed statistic are much higher than powers of parametric statistic. In case that block effects are smaller than a main effect or one block effect is higher than other block effects, powers of rank transformed statistic are much higher than powers of parametric statistic in $4{\times}4$ graeco-latin square design with three block effects and one main effect.

Restriction of completely randomization within a block can be handled by a split plot factorial design splitted by several plots. $3{\times}3$ split plot factorial design with two fixed main factors and one fixed block shows that powers of the rank transformed statistic for testing whole plot factorial effect and split plot factorial effect are superior to those of the parametric statistic when existing effect size is small or the remaining effect size is relatively smaller than the testing factorial effect size. Powers of the rank transformed statistic show relatively high level for exponential and double exponential distributions, whereas powers of the parametric and rank transformed statistic maintain similar level for normal and uniform distributions. Powers of the parametric and rank transformed statistic with two fixed main factors and one random block are respectively lower than those with all fixed factors. Powers of the parametric andrank transformed statistic for testing split plot factorial effect with two fixed main factors and one random block are slightly lower than those for testing whole plot factorial effect, but powers of the rank transformed statistic show comparative advantage over those of the parametric statistic.

If only fixed effects exist in a 4 $\times$ 4 balanced incomplete block design, powers of FR statistic for testing a main effect show the highest level with a few replications. Under the exponential and double exponential distributions, FR statistic shows relatively high powers with big differences as compared with the F statistic. Further in a traditional balanced incomplete block design, powers of FR statistic having a fixed main effect and a random block effect show superior preference for all situations without regard to the effect size of a main effect, the parameter size and the type of population distributions of a block effect. Powers of FR statistic increase in a high speed as replications increase. Overall power preference of FR statistic for testing a main effect is caused by unique characteristic of a balanced incomplete block design having one main and block effect with missing observations, which sensitively responds to small increase of main effect and sample size.

Powers of rank transformed statistic for testing main effects and interaction effects for $2{\times}2$ factorial design in randomized complete block design are very superior to powers of parametric statistic without regard to the block size, composition method of effects and the type of population distributions such as exponential, double exponential, normal and uniform. $2{\times}2$ factorial design in RCBD increases error effects and decreases powers of parametric statistic which results in conservativeness. However powers of rank transformed statistic maintain relative preference. In general powers of rank transformed statistic show relative preference over those of parametric statistic with small block size and big effect size.

Compared with single design, powers of rank transformed statistic for testing main and interaction effects for $2{\times}2$ factorial in $4{\times}4$ latin square design are rapidly increased as effect size and replication size are increased. In general powers of rank transformed statistic are superior without regard to the diversified effect composition and the type of error distributions as nontesting factors are few and effect size are small. Powers of rank transformed statistic show much higher level than those of parametric statistic in exponential and double exponential distributions. Further powers of rank transformed statistic are very similar with those of parametric statistic in normal and uniform distributions.

Due to the characteristics of 3 ${\times}$ 3 Latin square design which is composed of two block effects and one main effect, powers of rank transformed statistic for testing the main effect are very superior to powers of parametric statistic without regard to the type of population distributions. By order of when all three effects are fixed, when on one block effect is random, when two block effects are random, the rank transform statistic for testing the main effect shows relatively high powers as compared with the parametric statistic. Further when the size of main effect is big with one equivalent size of block effect and the other small size of block effect, powers of rank transformed statistic for testing the main effect demonstrate excellent advantage to powers of parametric statistic.

We consider sample-size determination problem motivated by comparative clinical trials where patient outcomes are characterized by a bivariate outcome of efficacy and safety. Thall and Cheng (1999) presented a sample size methodology for the case of bivariate binary outcomes. We propose a bivariate Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney(WMW) statistics for sample-size determination for binary outcomes, and this nonparametric method can be equally used to determine sample sizes of ordinal outcomes. The two methods of sample size determination rely on the same testing strategy for the target parameters but differs in the test statistics, an asymptotic bivariate normal statistic of the transformed proportions in Thall and Cheng (1999) and nonparametric bivariate WMW statistic in the other method. Sample sizes are calculated for the two experimental oncology trials, described in Thall and Cheng (1999), and for the first trial example the sample sizes of a bivariate WMW statistic are smaller than those of Thall and Cheng (1999), while for the second trial example the reverse is true.

본 논문에서는 실제 도로 환경에서의 실시간 차선 인식 방법을 제안한다. 전방주시카메라를 활용하여 촬영한 입력영상으로부터 도로영역에 해당하는 관심영역을 추출하고 반복적인 평균 명도를 측정하여 이진화함으로써 차선 특징을 검출하고 YCbCr 변환한 영상에 대한 실험 임계값을 적용하여 중앙선의 특징을 검출하였다. 이에 Canny 알고리즘을 이용한 에지 추출로 허프 변환시의 작업량을 최소화하였으며 허프 변환하여 얻은 차선 후보군으로부터 각도를 기반으로 필터링하여 통계적으로 우선순위가 높은 선분을 차선으로 인식하였다. 또한 실제 도로 환경에서 수집한 동영상으로 실험한 결과 강건한 차선 인식률을 보였다.

The carelessly and illegally copied contents are raising serious social problem as internet and multimedia technologies are advancing. Therefore, development of video copy detection system must be settled without delay. In this paper, we propose the hierarchical video copy detection method that estimates similarity using statistical characteristics between original video and manipulated(transformed) copy video. We rank according to luminance value of video to be robust to spacial transformation, and choose similar videos categorized as candidate segments in huge amount of database to reduce processing time and complexity. The copy videos generally insert black area in the edge of the image, so we remove rig black area and decide copy or not by using statistical characteristics of original video and copied video with center part of frame that contains important information of video. Experiment results show that the proposed method has similar keyframe accuracy to reference method, but we use less memory to save feature information than reference's, because the number of keyframes is less 61% than that of reference's. Also, the proposed method detects if the video is copied or not efficiently despite expansive spatial transformations such as blurring, contrast change, zoom in, zoom out, aspect ratio change, and caption insertion.
