The noise of image is added by many environmental factors. Therefore, we need to remove these noises using the conventional filtering methods, which are optimized based on the statistical characteristic of noise. In direct restoration method, there is an inverse filter and the wiener filter. Here, the wiener filter is the optimized filter in the view of least square method. First, we are going to study the inverse filter, wiener filter, constraint least square filter. Second, in order to control the quantity, we use the parameters instead of the power spectrum ratio. But, these parameters have the conflicting condition, therefore, we optimized the variables using parametric wiener filter which adjust the application appropriately. In the simulation results, the contrast of the degraded image was enhanced and the noise was removed. Comparative experimentation was demonstrated edge preserving and noise removing property.

A size of low-voltage conductor cables is determined by the voltage drop of a system the cable impedance and the cable ampacity based on temperature correction factor in accordance with the condition of cable installation. Therefore, the proper temperation correction factor according to the condition of cable installation should be applied to determining the cable ampacity and also the skin effect and proximity effect, along with the kind and size of conductor and the condition of cable installation, should be properly considered to analyze the proper value of resistance and the reactance of the conductors. This paper addresses the systematic design flow for determining the size of low voltage level con여ctor cables in calculating the voltage drop of a power system and proposes a new improved the calculating formula what error should be minimized in comparison with the general formula and which can be applied in design work for determining the size of conductor cables.

In this work, vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) technique was applied for the determination of %EE of chiral compounds. It may provide an easy way to determine the %EE with a proper accuracy within 2% error ranges as well as the absolute configuration of enantiomers. We demonstrated herein a flow cell VCD (FT-VCD) technique for time-dependent %EE measurements. The simultaneous monitoring of the mole fraction and %EE for two chiral species (epichlorohydrin and glycidol mixture) in the mixture was shown to be successful without any further separation steps. Thus, we demonstrate that FT-VCD is an appropriate analytical tool to monitor the kinetics of reactions involving chiral molecules. FT-VCD also provides a convenient nondestructive approach for the time dependent determination of the optical purity of individual components in a reaction mixture containing chiral molecules.

The fire and explosion properties of combustible materials are necessary for the safe handling, storage, transportation and disposal. Typical combustion characteristics for process safety include auto ignition temperature(AIT). The AIT is an important index for the safe handling of combustible liquids. The AIT is the lowest temperature at which the material will spontaneously ignite. In this study, the AITs and ignition delay times of n-pentanol and p-xylene mixture were measured by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The AITs of n-pentanol and p-xylene which constituted binary system were $285^{\circ}C$ and $557^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental AITs and ignition delay times of n-pentanol and p-xylene mixture were a good agreement with the calculated AITs and ignition delay times by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D. (average absolute deviation). Therefore, it is possible to estimate the AITs and ignition delay times in other compositions of n-pentanol and p-xylene mixture by using the predictive equations which presented in this study.

This paper proposes a novel technique of marker-based 2D-3D registration to combine 3D information obtained from preoperative CT images into 2D image obtained from intraoperative x-ray fluoroscopy image. Our method is divided into preoperative and intraoperative procedures. In preoperative procedure, we generate CT-derived DRRs using graphics hardware and detect markers automatically. In intraoperative procedure, we propose a hierarchical two- step registration to reduce a degree of freedom from 6-DOP to 2-DOF which is composed of in-plane registration using principal axis method and out-plane registration using minimal error searching method in spherical coordinate. For experimentation, we use cardiac phantom datasets with confirmation markers and evaluate our method in the aspects of visual inspection, accuracy and processing time. As experimental results, our method keeps accuracy and aligns very fast by reducing real-time computations.

For the image processing system to be classified the selected object in the nature, the rotation, scale and transition invariant features is to be necessary. There are many investigations to get the information for the object processing system and the log-polar transform which is to be get the invariant feature for the scale and rotation is used. In this paper, we suggested the 2 points polar coordinate transform methods to measure the selected object position out of the center in input image including the centroid method. In this proposed system, the position results of objects are very good, and we obtained the similarity ratio 99~104% for the object coordinate values.

표면영상유속계측법(Surface Image Velocimeter; SIV)은 영상분석기법의 일종으로 하천 표면의 유동을 영상저장장치로 기록하고 연속되는 이미지상의 입자이동을 계산하여 유속을 산정하는 방법이다. 그러나 표면영상유속계를 활용한 유속분석과정에서 현장 상황에 따라 많은 오차 요인들이 있을 수 있기 때문에 계산한 유속 산정 결과를 그대로 사용하면 정확도가 낮아질 수 있다. 특히 야간 영상과 같은 영상의 화질이 떨어지는 경우에는 유속 산정 결과를 필터링해서 사용해야 한다. 이는 순간 유속장을 분석하는 과정에서 획득된 이미지에 따라 분석된 유속벡터가 평균 유속보다 과다하게 크거나 상관계수 값이 너무 작은 경우가 포함되기 때문이다. 이 연구에서는 제주도 외도천 외도정수장에서 2013년 5월 27일 집중호우에 의한 유출 발생 주 야간 유출영상자료를 획득하여 표면영상유속계(SIV)와 ADCP를 활용하여 유량을 분석하고, 동시에 고정식 전자파 표면유속계인 Kalesto 관측 유량과 비교 분석하였다. 비교과정에서 제주도는 댐방류량과 같은 유량의 참값이 없으므로 각각 관측기기의 상대적인 비교를 하여 경향성을 분석하였다. 분석결과 주간유출영상은 상관계수가 0.6~0.7범위에 해당하는 유속이 전체 59개의 유속벡터 중 6.8%로 나타났으며, 0.7~0.8범위가 13.6%, 0.8~0.9범위가 18.6%, 0.9~1.0범위가 61.0%의 퍼센트를 나타났다. 야간유출영상을 주간유출영상과 비교해보면 0.6~0.7범위에 해당하는 상관계수가 6.8% 높게 분석되었으며, 반대로 0.9~1.0범위에 해당하는 상관계수는 17% 낮게 분석되었다. 이와 같은 결과는 야간유출영상이 주간유출영상에 비해 영상의 질이 떨어짐을 나타내며 표면영상유속계를 적용하여 유량을 산정하는 과정에서 획득되는 영상에 따라 상관계수에 대한 합리적인 필터링 과정이 필요하다.

하천에서 평수기 유량측정은 도섭법을 이용하기 위한 지점식 측정보다는 초음파 도플러 유속계(ADCP, Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler)를 보트에 탑재하여 운용하는 측정 방식이 점차 일반화되고 있다. ADCP는 초음파의 도플러효과를 이용하여 수심이나 횡방향의 유속 분포를 측정할 수 있는 측정 장비로 일반적으로 사용되는 down-looking ADCP는 수심방향의 유속분포와 수심을 측정하여 보트의 이동속도와의 벡터 내적을 이용하여 유량을 산정하게 된다. 그러나, 이동식 ADCP 유량 측정 성과의 불확도는 제공되지 않고 있는 상황인데, 이는 불확도 산정 표준안 미비, 유속 및 수심 등 측정 요소의 관측 환경 별 불확도 정보 부족, 불확도를 산정할 수 있는 툴의 부재 등에 기인한다. 본 연구에서는 이동식 ADCP 불확도 산정 표준안을 개발하고 현장 실험을 통해 불확도 요인에 대한 규명, 불확도를 편리하게 산정할 수 있는 툴을 개발하고자 하였다. 불확도 산정 표준안으로 최근 WMO를 위시한 국제적으로 하천 유량 측정 불확도 표준안으로 채택되고 있는 GUM(Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty Measurement)을 기반으로 이동식 ADCP 유량 산정 알고리즘을 적용하여 불확도 적용 기법을 개발하였다. GUM 표준안을 기반으로 유량 측정불확도를 산정하기 위한 불확도 요인분석은 실규모 하천의 특성을 대부분 모의할 수 있는 한국건설기술연구원의 안동하천실험센터에서 수행된 실험자료를 기반으로 다양한 인자들에 대한 요소 별 불확도 분석을 수행하였다. GUM 표준안에 의하면 불확도 요인들은 오차전파의 법칙에 기반하여 전체 불확도에 전파되며, 이렇게 합성된 불확도는 t-분포의 신뢰수준 95%일 경우의 보정계수 2를 곱하여 최종적으로 확장불확도를 산정하게 된다. 이동측정방식의 ADCP의 경우 GUM 표준안에 적용하여 불확도를 평가하기 위해서 사용되는 수식이 방대하고, 매우 복잡하기 때문에 이를 실무자가 평가하기에는 한계가 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 ADCP의 유량 측정불확도를 보다 편리하게 평가하기 위하여 ADCP 유량 측정불확도 평가 소프트웨어인 AQUA(ADCP Discharge Uncertainty Assesment)를 개발하였으며, 이를 통해 실무자나 연구자들이 ADCP의 불확도 평가에 보다 편리하게 접근할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

Representative particle sizes(RPS) are commonly used for particle size distribution of heterogeneous sediment such as bed material. RPS can provide not only information of mean characteristics of sediment, but also other properties like sorting, skewness, kurtosis. For sediment including sand and clay material, RPS is estimated through two steps. The first is experimental step for calculating weight of each size class, the next is interpolation step to get RPS by using the graph plot. At the second step, graph method known as direct reading of value along the interpolation line in the graph plot is commonly used. This method is often time-consuming job. In this study we developed a new program to get RPS by using MS Excel. Simple linear and semi-log interpolation are used. When compared with conventional graph method(direct reading), simple linear shows 5.31%, while semi-log 1.29% of relative difference. We developed MS Excel program for estimation of RPS automatically.

This study examines the sampling bias that may have resulted from the large number of missing observations. Despite well-designed and reliable sampling procedures, the observed sample values in DSFH(Demographic Survey on Changes in Family and Household Structure, Japan) included many missing observations. The head administerd survey method of DSFH resulted in a large number of missing observations regarding characteristics of elderly non-head parents and their children. In addition, the response probability of a particular item in DSFH significantly differs by characteristics of elderly parents and their children. Furthermore, missing observations of many items occurred simultaneously. This complex pattern of missing observations critically limits the ability to produce an unbiased analysis. First, the large number of missing observations is likely to cause a misleading estimate of the standard error. Even worse, the possible dependency of missing observations on their latent values is likely to produce biased estimates of covariates. Two models are employed to solve the possible inference biases. First, EM algorithm is used to infer the missing values based on the knowledge of the association between the observed values and other covariates. Second, a selection model was employed given the suspicion that the probability of missing observations of proximity depends on its unobserved outcome.
