In this paper, we propose a maritime region segmentation method and a segment-based destination prediction method for vessel path prediction. In order to perform maritime segmentation, clustering on destination candidates generated from the past paths is conducted. Then the segment-based destination prediction is followed. For destination prediction, different prediction methods are applied according to whether the current region is linear or not. In the linear domain, the vessel is regarded to move constantly, and linear prediction is applied. In the nonlinear domain with an uncertainty, we assume that the vessel moves similarly to the most similar past path. Experimental results show that applying the linear prediction and the prediction method using a similar path differently depending on the linearity and the uncertainty of the path is better than applying one of them alone.

Efforts to utilize human gestures to effectively implement a more natural and interactive interface between humans and computers have been ongoing in recent years. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm that accepts consecutive three-dimensional (3D) depth images, defines a hand model, and robustly extracts the human hand region based on six palm joints and 15 finger joints. Then, the 3D depth images are adaptively binarized to exclude non-interest areas, such as the background, and accurately extracts only the hand of the person, which is the area of interest. Experimental results show that the presented algorithm detects only the human hand region 2.4% more accurately than the existing method. The hand region extraction algorithm proposed in this paper is expected to be useful in various practical applications related to computer vision and image processing, such as gesture recognition, virtual reality implementation, 3D motion games, and sign recognition.

We developed a general purpose program for the analysis of flows in the combustor with recirculating flow regime and simulated the flows. The program uses non-staggered grids based on finite volume method and the primitive variables are cartesian velocities. The combustion model is irreversible one step reaction with infinite chemistry The Favre averaged governing equations are considered and the clipped gaussian distribution is considered as a probability density function of the conserved scalar. We calculated turbulent diffusion flame with recirculating flow regime. Simulation shows two recirculating regions like experimental results. Velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, temperature and concentration distribution in simulation agree well with experimental data.

This study was designed to examine the effects of complex breathing exercise and neuromuscular electrical stimulation of Quadriceps Femoris muscle on pulmonary function and cerebral cortex activity in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. After collecting samples from 20 patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease aged 60 to 80, 10 patients each were randomly placed in an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group conducted complex breathing exercise and neuromuscular electrical stimulation of Quadriceps Femoris muscle, and the control group only conducted complex breathing exercise. As a pretest, pulmonary function and cerebral cortex activity were measured. The intervention program was applied to each group for 30 minutes, once a day, for 4 days a week, for 6 weeks, and the posttest was carried out the same way as the pretest. As a result, both groups showed significant differences in FEV1.0(Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second)(p<.001)(p<.05), and there were significant differences between the groups as well(p<.05). When comparing alpha waves in each domain of cerebral cortex, both of the experimental and control groups showed significant differences in Fp1, Fp2, F3 and F4 domains (p<.01)(p<.05). During the 6-week experiment, complex breathing exercise and neuromuscular electrical stimulation of Quadriceps Femoris muscle improved pulmonary function of patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and in relation to cerebral cortex activity, a positive breathing change was found due to the increase of alpha waves in the forehead domain. Therefore, it is considered that applying neuromuscular electrical stimulation of Quadriceps Femoris muscle to patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease additionally along with complex breathing exercise will bring a better therapeutic effect.

Laser Inertial Navigation System(LINS) consists of Ring Laser Gyroscopes(RLG) and accelerometers. RLG has a lock-in region in which there is zero output for input angular rates less than 0.1deg/sec. The lock-in region is generated by the imperfect mirrors in RLG. To avoid the lock-in region, sinusoidal motion which is called dither motion is applied on RLG. Therefore without the fault in LINS, the dither motion must be measured by RLG/accelerometer. In this paper, we propose the method to detect the fault of LINS through checking out whether or not the dither motion is always measured by RLG/accelerometer using the Fast Fourier Transformation(FFT) on the real time. The feasibility of the fault detection method proposed in this paper is verified through the stationary and van test.

This study certified that the mentality training that utilized ICT learning has been working as an important base having much effect on learner's basic attitude on physical education class, improvement of bodily exercise function, and class satisfaction, and that the exercise ability was improved in the scope of speed, form(posture), accuracy(shooting success rate), and adaptability(performance ability). It means it is a much more step-forwarded educational method that the advantages of ICT learning and mentality training at the existing learning method were applied to the reality. Regarding the object of this study, it is a little bit unreasonable to generalize its study results in that it wasn't intended for national unit sampling. Therefore, in the future study, it is necessary to continue to advance the study that its representative-ness was supplemented through the balanced sampling between area and area, and between grade and grade.

This study intends to make a proposal the direction classification to develop the independent study of e-book's visualization. For this, we research into the e-book of Disney animation which achieved recognition in the literary value and amusement First of all, We grasp the meaning of the concept of e-book's aerial-image and perceptual principle. Next, We found the subject that starts the movement, and then observed the factor of the presentation to be possible to experience the actual spatial experience by the motion-produced cues. Through analysis process, We can classify the appearance elements, media, camera, and the readers' motion-produced cues into 13 parts and define as the codes. As we analysis the frequency of use of the analysis object, We separated it into the 46 combination exercises. According to the combination with the independent exercise, We separated them into 4 groups. There are the actual spatial experience, narrative spatial experience, the experience of characters. The basis for these, we can analyze the characteristics of the motion-produced cues. This study has the meaning of the expansion of e-book into the film language system by separating the e-book's narrative visualization type.

The circulation flows passing through the Ekman boundary layer on the rotating disk and transfer the angular momentum into the interior region of the container. Consequently, the circulation enhances the momentum transfer and the interior fluid is divided by a propagating shear front. This investigation focuses on computer vision and image processing technique for analysis of Non-Newtonian Fluids. To visualize marching velocity shear front for the transient flow, a particular shaped particles and light are used. To validate the proposed method, quantitative image are compared with the optical data acquired by a direct measurement of LDV (Laser Doppler Velocimetry).

This paper presents a method for generating spatiotemporal images to detect the leukocyte motions in a microvessel. By using the constraint that the leukocytes move along the contour line of a blood vessel wall, the method detects leukocyte motions and then generates spatiotemporal images. the translational motion by a movement in vivo is removed first by the template matching method. Next, a blood vessel region is detected by the automatic threshold selection method to binarize the temporal variance image, then a blood vessel wall's contour is expressed by B-spline function. With the detected blood vessel wall's contour as an initial curve, the plasma layer of the best accurate position is determined to be the spatial axis by snake. Finally, the spatiotemporal images are generated. The experimental results show the spatiotemporal images are generated effectively through the comparison of each step of three image sequences.
