We present a method that can recognize face images using independent component analysis that is used mainly for blind sources separation in signal processing. We assumed that a face image can be expressed as the sum of a set of statistically independent feature images, which was obtained by using independent component analysis. Face recognition was peformed by projecting the input image to the feature image space and then by comparing its projection components with those of stored reference images. We carried out face recognition experiments with a database that consists of various varied face images (total 400 varied facial images collected from 10 per person) and compared the performance of our method with that of the eigenface method based on principal component analysis. The presented method gave better results of recognition rate than the eigenface method did, and showed robustness to the random noise added in the input facial images.

A 14-year-old male patient was referred to us for evaluation of Right TMJ clicking sound and mandibular deviation during mouth opening. On examinaaation, protrusion and lateral excursion was also restricted. Radiographs showed hook-like curved elongation of Right coronoid process with limitation o right condylar translation. His past medical and dental history was noncontributory. This patient underwent an extraoral coronoidectomy and the specimen revealed coronoid process malformation mimicking condylar head. Microcoically, the specimen discloses mature bony trabeculae. At postoperative 5 days, physical therapy was instituted. At present, this patient could open his mouth well with any clicking sound and mandibular deviation. The asymmetric face of this patient is expectated to be corrected by periodic observation and remained growth porential. If not to be corrected, orthognathic surgery will be done.

가변길이 부호는 정보원(source)의 통계적인 특성을 이용하여 부호화 효율을 높이지만. 잡음이 심한 전송환경에선 비트에 대한 오류가 발생하면 심각하게 손상되는 단점을 가진다. 이러한 가변길이 부호의 문제를 해결하기 위해 양방향 가변길이 부호가 제안되었다. 양방향 가변길이 부호는 순방향과 역방향으로 복호가 가능하여 전송 오류로 인해 손상된 비디오 비트열에서 데이터를 복구할 수 있다. 부호의 자유거리(free distance)는 부호자체가 전송 오류에 얼마나 강인한지를 보여주는 척도로 사용된다. 양방향 가변길이 부호의 자유거리(free distance)의 최소 값은 1이므로 비디오 비트열 손상 자체를 방지할 수는 없다 본 논문에서는 자유거리(free distancs)의 최소 값을 증가시켜 전송오류에 더욱 강인한 새로운 양방향 가변길이 부호의 선계 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 주어진 Huffman 부호와 평균부호길이 함수의 특성을 이용하여 자유거리의 조건을 만족하면서 동시에 부호화 효율을 높여 기존의 알고리즘보다 향상된 성능을 보여준다.

High performance SiGe heterostructure metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors(MOSFETs) were fabricated using well-controlled delta-doping of boron and SiGe/Si heterostructure epitaxal layers grown by reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition. In this paper, we report 1/f noise characteristics of the SiGe MOSFETs measured under various bias conditions of the gate and drain voltages changing in linear operation regions. From the noise spectral density, we found that the gate and drain voltage dependence of the noise represented same features, as usually scaled with $f^1$. However, 1/f noise was found to be much lower in the device with boron delta-doped layer, by a factor of $10^{-1}\sim10^{-2}$ in comparion with the device fabricated without delta-doped layer. 1/f noise property of delta-doped device looks important because the device may replace bipolar transistors most commonly embedded in high-frequency oscillator circuits.

Quantum-dot cellular automata(QCA) is a new technology and it is an one of the alternative high performance over existing complementary metal-oxide semi-conductor(CMOS). QCA is nanoscale device and ultra-low power consumption compared with transistor-based technologies, and various circuits using QCA technology have been proposed. Binary-coded decimal(BCD), which represents decimal digits in binary, is mainly used in electronic circuits and Microprocessor, and it is comfortable in conversion operation but many data loss. In this paper, we present an BCD-EXCESS 3 Code converter which can be efficiently used for subtraction and half adjust. The proposed scheme has efficiently designed considering space and time complexities and minimization of noise, and it has been simulated and confirmed.

The FCM algorithm finds the optimal solution through iterative optimization technique. In particular, there is a difference in execution time depending on the initial center of clustering, the location of noise, the location and number of crowded densities. However, this method gradually updates the center point, and the center of the initial cluster is shifted to one side. In this paper, we propose a TI-FCM(Triangular Inequality-Fuzzy C-Means) clustering algorithm that determines the cluster center density by maximizing the distance between clusters using triangular inequality. The proposed method is an effective method to converge to real clusters compared to FCM even in large data sets. Experiments show that execution time is reduced compared to existing FCM.

In this study, a source locating technique applicable to transversely isotropic media was developed. Wave velocity anisotropy was considered based on the partition approximation method, which simply enabled AE source locating. Sets of P wave arrival time were decided by the two-step AIC algorithm and they were later used to locate the AE sources when having the least error compared with the partitioned elements. In order to validate the technique, pencil lead break test on artificial transversely isotropic mortar specimen was carried out. Defining the absolute error as the distance between the pencil lead break point and the located point, 1.60 mm ~ 14.46 mm of range and 8.57 mm of average were estimated therefore it was regarded as thought to be 'acceptable' considering the size of the specimen and the AE sensors. Comparing each absolute error under different threshold levels, results showed small discrepancies therefore this technique was hardly affected by background noise. Absolute error could be decomposed into each coordinate axis error and through it, effect of AE sensor position could be understood so if optimum sensor position was able to be decided, one could get more precise outcome.

Long-range communication in deep waters must overcome the low data rate due to limited bandwidth. This paper presents the performance of Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) system to increase the data rate. In MIMO system, communication performance is degraded by crosstalk between users and an adaptive passive Time Reversal Processing (TRP) is widely used to eliminate this. In October 2018, long-range underwater acoustic communication experiment was conducted in deep water (1,000 m ~) off the east of Pohang, South Korea. During the experiment, a vertical line array was utilized and communication signals modulated by binary phase shift keying and quadrature phase shift keying with a symbol rate of 512 sps were transmitted. To generate MIMO communication signals, received signals from ranges of 26 km and 30 km is synthesized. Compared to the conventional passive TRP, the adaptive passive TRP eliminates the crosstalk between users and achieves error-free performance with an increase of output signal-to-noise ratio. Therefore, two users separated by 4 km in range achieves an aggregate data rate of 1,024 symbols/s.

Grid type 70Ni-30Co thin films on slide glass at $250^{\circ}C$ has been fabricated to develope. From fabricated sensors using above process, we investigated the relation of temperature, resistivity, line width to magnetoresistance and we obtained the following results after observation of coercive force, saturated magnetization, maxium usable sensitivity, delay time, slew rate, white noise, resolution of the sensors. We confirmed that the $600{\AA}$ thin film at $250^{\circ}C$ formed crystalized magnetic anisotropy spontaneously and the sensor using the thin film had capability of detecting magnetic field with sensitivity of 230 nT. In these devices, the magnetoresistance change was increased linearly in ${\pm}10$ Oe range, and the magnetoresistance effect was increased when the ratio between line width and length was increased. When the devices was soldered using indium, the temperature-resistivity coefficient showed $8{\times}10^{-3}/deg$ and increased during the specific properties as magnetic field sensor were weakened. In this studies, the coercive forces of the films were about 5.1 A/cm and saturated magnetizations were 0.64 T, and the delay time in these devises was $5{\mu}s$ and slew rate showed 0.39 $Oe/{\mu}s$ and white noise was -120 dB.

In the main target area of the block II, Targe-scale faults occur below the unconformity developed around 1 km in depth. The contrast of seismic velocity around the unconformity is generally so large that the strong multiples and the radical velocity variation would deteriorate the quality of migrated section due to serious distortion. More than 15 kinds of data processing techniques have been applied to improve the image resolution for the structures farmed from this active crustal activity. The bad and noisy traces were edited on the common shot gathers in the first step to get rid of acquisition problems which could take place from unfavorable conditions such as climatic change during data acquisition. Correction of amplitude attenuation caused from spherical divergence and inelastic attenuation has been also applied. Mild F/K filter was used to attenuate coherent noise such as guided waves and side scatters. Predictive deconvolution has been applied before stacking to remove peg-leg multiples and water reverberations. The velocity analysis process was conducted at every 2 km interval to analyze migration velocity, and it was iterated to get the high fidelity image. The strum noise caused from streamer was completely removed by applying predictive deconvolution in time space and ${\tau}-P$ domain. Residual multiples caused from thin layer or water bottom were eliminated through parabolic radon transform demultiple process. The migration using curved ray Kirchhoff-style algorithm has been applied to stack data. The velocity obtained after several iteration approach for MVA (migration velocity analysis) was used instead or DMO for the migration velocity. Using various testing methods, optimum seismic processing parameter can be obtained for structural and stratigraphic interpretation in the Block II, Yellow Sea Basin.
