Single exposure dual X-ray imaging can be used to separate soft and dense-material images for medical and industrial applications. This study keep focusing baggage inspection system(BIS) specifically. New detector modules for single exposure dual X-ray imaging are consisted of low energy detector (LED) and high energy detector (HED). First, the optimized thickness of copper filter coupled HED to separate low energy and high energy was simulated by the given X-ray energy (140 kVp, 1 mA) using Monte Carlo simulation codes, MCNPX. So as a result of simulation, the copper filter thickness is 0.7 mm. For the design of PIN photodiode, ATLAS device simulation tool was used. 16 channels PIN photodiode of 1.5 mm ${\times}$ 3.2 mm for Dual X-ray imaging detector was fabricated in the process of ETRI. And its dark current and quantum efficiency, terminal capacitance were measured. It was proven that the Lanex Fast B coupled HED were a sufficient candidate to replace the CsI(Tl) commerced in dual X-ray system, since these give a strong signal, overcoming system noise. Finally dual X-ray image was acquired through correction of the LED X-ray Image and the HED X-ray Image.

In this paper, We proposed a realtime smoke detection using hidden markov model and DWT. The smoke type is not clear. The color of the smoke, form, spread direction, etc., are characterized by varying the environment. Therefore, smoke detection using specific information has a high error rate detection. Dynamic Object Detection was used a robust foreground extraction method to environmental changes. Smoke recognition is used to integrate the color, shape, DWT energy information of the detected object. The proposed method is a real-time processing by having the average processing speed of 30fps. The average detection time is about 7 seconds, it is possible to detect early rapid.

1차원 산화아연 나노구조물은 광대역 에너지 밴드갭(~3.3 eV)과 독특한 물리적 특성을 갖고 있어, 전계효과 트랜지스터(field effect transistor), 발광다이오드(light emitting diode), 자외선 광검출기 (ultraviolet photodetector) 및 태양전지(photovoltaic cell)에 널리 이용되고 있다. 특히, 1차원 산화아연 나노구조물은 직접천이형 에너지 밴드갭(direct bandgap)을 갖고 있으며, 빛으로부터 여기된 전자가 1차원 나노구조물을 통해 향상된 이동경로를 제공할 수 있어서 차세대 자외선 광검출기 응용에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 한편, 수열합성법(hydrothermal method)을 통해서 1차원 산화아연 나노구조물을 비교적 간단하고 저온공정을 통해서 합성할 수 있는데, 이를 광검출기 소자구조에 응용에서 양전극에 연결하기 위해서는 복잡하고 정교한 공정이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수열합성법을 통해 합성된 산화아연 나노로드가 포함된 에탄올 용액을 금(Au) 패턴에 drop-casting을 통해서 간단한 방법으로 metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) 광검출기를 제작하여 광반응 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 염료를 통해 가시광을 흡수하여 광전류(photocurrent)를 발생시킬 수 있도록 염료를 흡착한 산화아연 나노로드를 이용하여 같은 구조의 MSM 광검출기를 제작하여 가시광에 대한 광반응 특성을 관찰하였다.

활성 윤곽선 모델은 스네이크 모델이라고도 하며 영상에서 물체의 경계를 검출하기위한 효과적인 방법으로 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 초기 윤곽선 문제와 효과적인 경계선 검출을 위해 다해상도 기반의 유전자 알고리즘을 이용한 활성 윤곽선 모델을 제안한다. 입력영상의 해상도를 영상 피마리드 기법으로 저해상도로 축소시키고 초기 윤곽선을 설정한다. 설정된 윤곽선상의 연속된 두 좌표를 유전인자로 선택하고, 유전 연산자를 적용하여 물체의 경계를 찾아간다. 경계가 검출된 저해상도 영상을 단계적으로 확대하여, 보간될 영역의 국부적 활성 윤곽선 에너지를 계산하여 최소 에너지를 갖는 위치에 새로운 윤곽선 좌표를 삽입하여 경계를 형성한다. 제안된 방법은 초기 윤곽선의 위치에 상관없이 경계선을 검출했으며, 형태가 복잡한 물체의 경우에도 효과적으로 경계선을 검출하고 계산 복잡도를 감소시켰다.

In this paper, the Classification of Energy Labeling has been proposed. Energy parameters of input signal which are extracted from each phoneme are labelled. And groups of labelling according to detected energies of input signals are detected. Next. DTW processes in a selected group of labeling. This leads to DTW processing faster than a previous algorithm. In this Method, because an accurate detection of parameters is necessary on the assumption in steps of a detection of speeching duration and a detection of energy parameters, variable windows which are decided by pitch period are used. A pitch period is detected firstly : next window scale is decided between 200 frames and 300 frames. The proposed method makes it possible to cancel an influence of windows and reduces the computational complexity by $25\%$.

In this paper, we propose a simple algorithm for detecting underwater transient signals on the fact that the frequency range of underwater transient signals is similar to audio frequency. For this, we use a preprocessing module of EVRC speech codec that is the standard speech codec of the mobile communications. If a signal is entered into EVRC noise suppression module, we can get some parameters such as the update flag, the energy of each channel, the noise suppressed signal, the energy of input signal, the energy of background noise, and the energy of enhanced signal. Therefore the energy of the enhanced signal that is normalized with the energy of the background noise is compared with the pre-defined detection threshold, and then we can detect the transient signal. And the detection threshold is updated using the previous value in the noisy period. The experimental result shows that the proposed algorithm has $0{\sim}4% error rate in the AWGN or the colored noise environment.

Spectrum sensing is a critical functionality of CR network; it allow secondary user to detect spectral holes and to opportunistically use under-utilized frequency bands without causing harmful interference to primary use. Recently, wideband service has been increase for processing abundance of data traffic. So CR network needs a realizable implementation design of spectrum sensing for wideband. To get high resolution performance of wideband sensing must precede algorithm processing for reliability signal detection. By the way, the performance of spectrum sensing can be degraded due to fading and shadowing. In order to overcome this problem, we propose system model of wideband sensing scheme on energy detected collaborative technique. we divide wideband into narrowbands and use narrowbands to detect signal excepting some narrowbands including bad channel through the CSI. And we simulate and analyze in terms of detection probability with various SNR.

A simple algorithm for discriminating voiced sounds in a speech is proposed in this paper. In addition to low-frequency energy and zero-crossing rate (ZCR), both of which have been widely used in the past for identifying voiced sounds, the proposed algorithm incorporates pitch variation to improve the discrimination rate. Based on TIMIT corpus, evaluation result shows an improvement of 13% in the discrimination of voiced phonemes over that of the traditional algorithm using only energy and ZCR.

In order to find the exposure conversion coefficients for 3"X3" NaI spectrum, we measured the exposure rates with the pressurized ion chamber at 29 different areas in the range of $4{\sim}23{\mu}R\;h^{-1}$, and also measured the gamma spectra with 3"X3" and 4"X4" NaI detectors, simultaneously. The exposure conversion coefficient of the total energy method was determined using the linear relation between the measured exposure rate and the gamma spectrum energy. In order to find the exposure conversion coefficients of the energy band method, we applied the exposure conversion coefficients recommended by NCRP to the 4"X4" NaI spectra, and calculated the exposure rates due to $^{40}K,\;^{238}U$, and $^{232}Th$ series respectively. Using the linearly proportional relation between the obtained $^{232}Th$ series exposure rate and peak area of 2614 keV that represents the $^{232}Th$ series, we obtained the exposure conversion coefficients for $^{232}Th$ series. We also determined the conversion coefficients for $^{238}U$ series and $^{40}K$ using a similar method.

Cryogenic particle detectors have recently been adopted in radiation detection and measurement because of their high energy resolution. Many of these detectors have demonstrated energy resolutions better than the theoretical limit of semiconductor detectors. We report the development of alpha spectrometer using a micro-fabricated magnetic calorimeter coupled to a large-area particle absorber. A piece of gold foil of $2{\times}2{\times}0.05mm^3$ was glued to the paramagnetic temperature sensor made of sputtered Au:Er film to serve as an absorber for incident alpha particles. We performed experiments with 241Am source at cryogen free adiabatic demagnetization refrigerator (CF-ADR). A high energy resolution of 6.8 keV in FWHM was obtained for 5.5 MeV alpha particles.
