JVET (Joint Video Exploration Team) which explored evolving technologies of video coding with capabilities beyond HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding), released a references software codec named the Joint Exploration Model (JEM) for performance verification of coding technologies. JEM has 67 intra prediction modes that extend the 35 modes of HEVC for intra prediction. Therefore, the enhancement of the coding performance is limited due to the overhead of prediction mode coding. In this paper, we analyze the probabilities of prediction modes selections, and then we propose a more efficient intra prediction mode coding based on the results of analyzed mode occurrence. In addition, we propose a context modeling for CABAC (Context-Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding) of the proposed mode coding. Experimental results show that the BD-rate gain is 0.02% on the AI (All Intra) coding structure compared to JEM 7.0. We need to optimize context modeling for additional coding performance enhancement.

최근 센서네트워크와 같은 에너지 제한 환경을 위한 경량화 부호화 기술의 필요성이 대두됨에 따라 분산 소스 부호화 기술(Distributed Source Coding)의 응용기술로 비디오 부호화 복잡도의 대부분을 차지하는 움직임 예측/보상과정을 부호화기가 아닌 복호화기에서 수행하는 분산 비디오 부호화 기술(Distributed Video Coding)에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어져 왔다. 이에 가장 대표적인 기술인 Wyner-Ziv 코딩 기술은 채널 코드를 이용하여 원본 프레임과 이에 대한 복호화기의 예측영상인 보조정보 사이의 잡음을 제거하여 영상을 복원한다. 일반적으로 보조정보는 원본영상에 유사한 키 프레임간의 프레임 보간을 통하여 생성되며 채널 코드는 Shannon limit에 근접한 성능을 보이는 Turbo 코드나 LDPC 코드가 사용된다. 이와 같은 채널 코드의 복호화는 채널 잡음 모델에 기반하여 수행되어지며 Wyner-Ziv 코딩 기술에서는 이 채널 잡음 모델을 '상관 잡음 모델' (Correlation Noise Modeling)이라 하고 일반적으로 Laplacian이나 Gaussian으로 모델화 한다. 하지만 복호화기에는 원본 영상에 대한 정보가 없기 때문에 정확한 상관 잡음 모델을 알 수 없으며 잡음 모델에 대한 예측의 부정확성은 잡음 제거를 위한 패리티 비트의 증가를 야기해 부호화 기술의 압축 성능 저하를 가져온다. 이에 본 논문은 원본 프레임과 보조정보 사이의 잡음을 정확하게 예측하여 잡음을 정정할 수 있는 향상된 상관 잡음 모델을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 잘못된 잡음 예측에 의해 Laplacian 계수가 너무 커지는 것을 방지하면서 영상내의 잡음의 유무에 별다른 영향을 받지 않는 새로운 문턱값을 사용한다. 다양한 영상에 대한 제안 방법의 실험 결과는 평균적으로 약 0.35dB에 해당하는 율-왜곡 성능 향상을 보여주었다.

A simple but accurate analytical method to evaluate the fire resistance of unprotected concrete filled tubular (CFT) columns under standard fire condition is proposed based on the fire design framework of EC4. To this end, the accuracy of the current tabulation method for the temperature prediction proposed by Lawson et al. was first critically evaluated, and a new prediction equation for the temperature gradient across the CFT section was then proposed based on available test and finite element analysis results. Overall, the axial strength predicted by using the proposed equation under the general fire design framework of EC4 was more accurate than that based on existing methods and appeared reasonable for design purposes. The results of this study are directly usable for the more rational fire analysis and design of unprotected CFT columns.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of pilot symbol assisted channel estimation and equalization schemes for OFDM systems over frequency-selective time-varying channels and propose methods to improve the system performance. In the least square(LS) and linear minimum mean square error(MMSE) channel estimation, time domain windowing is introduced for banding the frequency domain channel matrix. The linear MMSE and decision feedback equalization schemes are employed with the pilot symbols for channel estimation taken into account in the equalization process. To reduce computational complexity, the band LU matrix factorization algorithm is introduced in solving the linear systems involved in the equalization, and the performances are compared with the known previous results by computer simulations. When time domain windowing is employed in the decision feedback equalization, the matrix related with the decision feedback process is shown to be unhanded and the resultant performance degradation is analyzed.

In the early stage of helicopter design, an optimal configuration is usually determined after a numerous parametric study about the aerodynamic performance due to geometric variation. In order to improve the aerodynamic performance of a shrouded tail rotor, optimization of the tip clearance gap between blade and shroud, the blade planform shape, and the arrangement of blade spacing is required. In the present study, the aerodynamic performance characteristics of a shrouded tail rotor due to geometric variation was investigated by using an inviscid compressible unstructured mesh flow solver for rotary wings.

Since DVC (Distributed Video Coding) and FRUC (Frame Rate Up Conversion) techniques need to have an efficient motion compensated frame interpolation algorithms. Conventional works of these applications have mainly focused on the performance improvement of overall system. But, in some applications, it is necessary to evaluate how well the MCI (Motion Compensated Interpolation) frame matches the original frame. For this aim, this paper deals with the modeling methods for evaluating the block-based matching cost. First, several matching criteria, which have already been dealt with the motion compensated frame interpolation, are introduced and then combined to make estimate models for the size of MSE (Mean Square Error) noise of the MCI frame to original one. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the block-based cost evaluation models are tested and can be effectively used for estimating the MSE noise.

In this study, we consider a problem of forecasting daily city gas demand of Korea. Forecasting daily gas demand is a daily routine for gas provider, and gas demand needs to be forecasted accurately in order to guarantee secure gas supply. In this study, we analyze the time series of city gas demand in several ways. Data analysis shows that primary factors affecting the city gas demand include the demand of previous day, temperature, day of week, and so on. Incorporating these factors, we developed a multiple linear regression model. Also, we devised a sampling procedure that selectively collects the past data considering the characteristics of the city gas demand. Test results on real data exhibit that the MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Error) obtained by the proposed method is about 2.22%, which amounts to 7% of the relative improvement ratio when compared with the existing method in the literature.

In this paper, we evaluate deep learning time series forecasting models. Recent studies show that those models perform better than the traditional prediction model such as ARIMA. Among them, recurrent neural networks to store previous information in the hidden layer are one of the prediction models. In order to solve the gradient vanishing problem in the network, LSTM is used with small memory inside the recurrent neural network along with BI-LSTM in which the hidden layer is added in the reverse direction of the data flow. In this paper, we compared the performance of Informer by comparing with other models (LSTM, BI-LSTM, and Transformer) for real Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) data. In order to evaluate the accuracy of each method, mean square root error and mean absolute error between the real value and the predicted value were obtained. Consequently, Informer has improved prediction accuracy compared with other methods.
