To alleviate positioning error using wireless ultra-wideband (UWB) is primary concern, and it has been studied how to reduce the positioning error effectively. Thanks to many repeated transmissions of UWB signals, we can have a variety of selections to point out the most precise positioning result. Towards this, scanning method has been preferred to be used due to its simplicity. This exhaustive method firstly fixes the candidate position, and calculates the sum of distances from observed positions. However, it has tremendous number of computations, and the complexity is more serious if the size of two-dimensional range is the larger. To mitigate the large number of computations, this paper proposes the technique employing genetic algorithm and block windowing. To exploit its superiority, simulations will be conducted to show the reduction of complexity, and the efficiency on positioning capability.

An accurate positioning estimation in the wireless sensor networks (WSN) is very important in which each sensor node is aware of neighbor conditions. The multi-hop positioning estimation technique is considered as one of the suitable techniques for the WSN with many low power devices. However geographical holes, where there is no sensor node, may severely decrease the positioning accuracy so that the positioning error can be beyond the tolerable range. Therefore in this paper, we analyze error factors of DV-hop and hole effect to obtain node's accurate position. The proposed methods include boundary node detection, distance level adjustment, and unreliable anchor elimination. The simulation results show that the proposed method can achieve higher positioning accuracy using the hole detection and enhanced distance calculation methods compared with the conventional DV-hop.

In this paper, an anchor shot detection method, which is a basic technology for managing news videos for index and retrieval purposes is proposed. To do that, two most popular news program such as 'KBS 9 Hour News' and 'MBC 9 Hour News' are analyzed and 4-step rule based detection method is proposed First, in the preprocessing, video shot boundaries are detected and the 1st frame of each shot is extracted as a key frame. Then, the detected shot is declared as an anchor shot, if all the following 4 conditions are satisfied. 1) There is an anchor face in the key frame of a shot. 2) Spatial distribution of edges in the key frame is adequate. 3) Background color information of the key frame is similar to the color information of an anchor model. 4) Motion rate in the shot is low. In order to show the validity of the proposed method, three 'KBS 9 Hour News' and three 'MBC 9 Hour News', which have total running time of 108 in minute and are broadcasted at different days, are used for experiments. Average detection rates showed 0.97 in precision, 1.0 in recall, and 0.98 in F-measure.

This paper introduces a novel approach for automated mapping of a map feature that is vinyl green house in high spatial resolution imagery Some map features have their unique spatial patterns. These patterns are normally detected in high spatial resolution remotely sensed data by human recognition system. When spatial patterns can be applied to map feature identification, it will improve image classification accuracy and will be contributed a lot to feature identification. In this study, an automated feature identification approach using spatial aucorrelation is developed, specifically for the vinyl green house that has distinctive spatial pattern in its array. The algorithm aimed to develop the method without any human intervention such as digitizing. The method can investigate the characteristics of repeated spatial pattern of vinyl green house. The repeated spatial pattern comes from the orderly array of vinyl green house. For this, object-based approaches are essential because the pattern is recognized when the shapes that are consists of the groups of pixels are involved. The experimental result shows very effective vinyl house extraction. The targeted three vinyl green houses were exactly identified in the IKONOS image for a part of Jeju area.

최근 기후변화로 인해 기온, 강수량 등 농업에 직접적인 영향을 주는 환경요인의 변화가 급격하게 진행되고 있으며, 식량농업기구 (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, FAO)는 기후변화로 인해 전 세계적인 식량위기가 발생할 가능성이 크다고 경고하고 있다. 농업 시스템의 생산 능력을 확보하기 위해 수자원의 효율적인 공급 및 분배, 수확량 예측, 토지 특성 파악 등 농업 생산 제한요소에 대한 빠른 정보수집이 요구되고 있다. 재해관리 분야에서 원격탐사 기술은 재해 발생을 인지하고 발생지역의 재해 진행과 피해 정도를 신속하게 제공할 수 있다는 점에서 효용성이 높다. 또한 위성 영상을 이용할 경우 접근이 용이하지 못한 지역의 조사가 수월하며, 장기적인 변화관측이나 환경감시 등 광역적 접근이 가능하다. 최근 위성영상을 통한 다양한 신호의 데이터 취득 및 가공이 가능하게 됨에 따라 주기적이고 동일한 정확도로 지상자료의 획득이 가능하다는 측면에서 인공위성을 활용한 농업 분야에서의 가뭄 분석 연구의 필요성이 대두되었다. 위성영상 신호를 통해 농업 가뭄에 활용되고 있는 지표로는 정규식생지수 (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, NDVI) 및 식생상태지수 (Vegetation Condition Index, VCI), 식생가뭄반응지수(Vegetation Drought Response Index, VegDRI) 등이 있다. 잠재 증발산과 실제 증발산의 비를 이용한 위성영상기반의 가뭄지수인 Evaporative Stress Index (ESI)는 일반적으로 사용되는 가뭄지수인 표준강수지수(Standardized Precipitation Index, SPI), 파머가뭄심도지수 (Palmer Drought Severity Index, PDSI) 등과 비교하였을 때, 가뭄에 더 민감하고 빠른 반응을 보인다는 연구 결과로부터 짧은 기간의 급속하게 발생하는(rapid-onset) Flash drought의 가뭄판단지표로 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 과거 우리나라에 발생했던 극심한 가뭄 사상을 대상으로 ESI의 가뭄분석을 통해 타 지표와의 차별성을 확인하고 농업 가뭄 모니터링의 새로운 지표로써 적용성을 검토하고자 한다.

Individual mental fatigue not only reduces cognitive ability and work performance, but also becomes a major factor in large and small accidents occurring in daily life. In this paper, a CNN model for EEG-based mental fatigue discrimination was proposed. To this end, EEG in the resting state and task state were collected and applied to the proposed CNN model, and then the model performance was analyzed. All subjects who participated in the experiment were right-handed male students attending university, with and average age of 25.5 years. Spectral analysis was performed on the measured EEG in each state, and the performance of the CNN model was compared and analyzed using the raw EEG, absolute power, and relative power as input data of the CNN model. As a result, the relative power of the occipital lobe position in the alpha band showed the best performance. The model accuracy is 85.6% for training data, 78.5% for validation, and 95.7% for test data. The proposed model can be applied to the development of an automated system for mental fatigue detection.

As the education and training is such a virtual environment is applied to various fields, its usability is endless. However, there is an underestimation of the depth of perception in the training environment. In order to solve this problem, we tried to solve the problem by applying the top-down correction method. However, it is difficult to classify the result as a learning effect or perception change. In this study, it was confirmed that the proportion of spatial components of urine had a significant effect on the depth perception, and it was confirmed that the size perception were corrected together. In this study, we propose a correction method using spatial component and depth perception to improve the accuracy of depth perception.

As wearable technology is becoming more common and a part of our lives, there have been many efforts to offer various smart services with wearable devices, such as motion recognition, safety of driving, and so on. In this paper, we present a method that exploits the 9-axis inertial sensors embedded in a smartwatch to identify whether the user is a vehicle driver or not and to estimate the steering wheel turning direction in the vehicle. The system consists of three components: (i) position recognition, (ii) driver recognition, and (iii) steering-wheel turning detection components. We have developed a prototype system for detecting user's motion with Arduino boards and IMU sensors. Our experiments show high accuracy in recognizing the driver and in estimating the wheel rotation angle. The average experimental error was $11.77^{\circ}$ which is small enough to perceiver the turning direction of steering-wheel.

Machine learning has recently been applied to research in most areas. This is because the results of machine learning are not determined, but the learning of input data creates the objective function, which enables the determination of new data. In addition, the increase in accumulated data affects the accuracy of machine learning results. The data collected here is an important factor in machine learning. The proposed system is a convergence system of cloud systems and local fog systems for service delivery. Thus, the cloud system provides machine learning and infrastructure for services, while the fog system is located in the middle of the cloud and the user to collect and refine data. The data for this application shall be based on the Sensitive data generated by smart devices. The machine learning technique applied to this system uses SVM algorithm for classification and RNN algorithm for status recognition.

Since social big data often includes new words or proper nouns, statistical morphological analysis methods have been widely used to process them properly which are based on the frequency of occurrence of each word. However, these methods do not properly recognize compound nouns, and thus have a problem in that the accuracy of keyword extraction is lowered. This paper presents a method to extract compound nouns in keyword analysis of social big data. The proposed method creates a candidate group of compound nouns by combining the words obtained through the morphological analysis step, and extracts compound nouns by examining their frequency of appearance in a given review. Two algorithms have been proposed according to the method of constructing the candidate group, and the performance of each algorithm is expressed and compared with formulas. The comparison result is verified through experiments on real data collected online, where the results also show that the proposed method is suitable for real-time processing.
