The three-step search(TSS) algorithm, a simple and gradual motion estimation algorithm, has been widely used in some low bit-rate video compression. We propose a new fast block motion estimation algorithm using the characteristics of motion in search region. Most of motion vectors exist in the center region of search area, so the notion in that region is examined more closely than TSS in this paper. Also in a search step, motion vector is estimated in the local area which is not overlapped with the search area in previous step, considering the all possible direction of motion. Therefore, we get the better motion estimation and reduce computational time in compared with the conventional methods.

This study investigates the method to measure the viscoelastic properties of asphalt cement, one of the viscoelastic materials, using the ultrasound. The wave speed and attenuation were measured from $-20^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$ at the frequency of 2.25MHz. Then, the storage and loss longitudinal moduli, loss tangent storage and loss longitudinal compliances were found depending on the temperatures based on the linear viscoelastic theory. Stress relaxation, creep, and viscosity were predicted using Maxwell and Voigt-Kelvin viscoelastic models. The validity of superposition principle and shift factor were verified by comparing the present results to the data reported in the literatures.

In speech recognition under a noisy environment, it is necessary to construct a system which reduces the noise and enhances the speech. Then it is effective to imitate the human auditory system which has an excellent analytical spectrum mechanism for speech enhancement. Accordingly, this paper proposes an adaptive method using the auditory mechanism which is called lateral inhibition. This method first estimates the noise intensity by neural network, then adaptively adjusts both the coefficients of the lateral inhibition and the adjusting coefficient of amplitude component according to the noise intensity for each input frame. It is confirmed that the proposed method is effective for speech degraded by white noise, colored noise, and road noise based on the spectral distortion measurement.

Since radio interference has occurred in the TRS frequency band in the south coastal area, Korea from 1994, similar interference has been observed in the mobile-cellular frequency band. Measurement showed that the sources of the radio interference are those from the base stations for digital cellular systems in Japan. This because the receiving frequency of the base stations in Korea is same as the transmitting frequency of the base stations in Japan. Since the distance between Korea and Japan is 240 ~ 300 km, we can conclude that the main reason of the interference is ducting. In this paper a ducting channel is modeled by split-step DMFT algorithm, and simulation results for measured index profile far east coast and west sea area are analyzed.

The measured thrust could be distorted because of the transient response of thrust stand during combustion of rocket motor. As a result of the distorted thrust, it is not easy for us to know the values of thrust peak and thrust duration time. Therefore, it is of great importance to compute the true thrust from the measured thrust. In this study the method to eliminate the transient response from the measured thrust using only the measured thrust was Proposed, and also experimental data were used to approve the proposed method. The result showed that the proposed method would be available to compute the true thrust.

This paper described the general concept of combustion instability and its mechanism in gas turbine engines. The approaching method to study this phenomenon was introduced including the up-to-date research activity in tile world. Combustion instability is one of critical problems, still now, affecting engine performance, durability and operation. In addition it is known that this problem is caused by coupling between fuel or air flow fluctuation and heat release rate in gas turbine engines, which is related with NOx reduction strategies. Therefore, in order to understand the current status of combustion instability we reviewed the combustion instability phenomenon in gas turbine engines.

The main objective of fraud detection is to minimize costs or losses that are incurred due to fraudulent transactions. Because of the problem's nature such as highly skewed, overlapping class distribution and non-uniform misclassification costs, it is, however, practically difficult to generate a classifier that is near-optimal in terms of classification costs at a desired operating range of rejection rates. This paper defines a performance measure that reflects classifier's costs at a specific operating range and offers a cost-sensitive learning approach that enables us to train classifiers suitable for real-world credit card fraud detection by directly optimizing the performance measure with evolutionary programming. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach provides an effective way of training cost-sensitive classifiers for successful fraud detection, compared to other training methods.

In this paper, a simple scheme of optical interconnections between M input and N output terminals using mode speckle patterns generated in the mulitmode optical fiber is described. It is shown that fully parallel nonblocking interconnections are accomplished by using properly generated mode speckle patterns as destination codes and dectecting the generated mode speckle patterns separately using M multiplexed Vander Lugt matched filters at each output terminal. The orthogonality condition of mode speckle patterns is investigated by either changing the launching angles or rotating the polarization direction of the beam. Preliminary experiments by use of a 4$\times$4 graded refractive-index multimode fiber coupler whose core diameter was 50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were performed to show the feasibility of our scheme.

최근 기후변화로 인해 국지성 집중호우와 태풍의 발생빈도가 증가하고 있다. 특히 우리나라 국토는 전체면적 중 산지면적이 63%에 해당하여 산지에서 발생하는 산사태와 토석류에 취약한 실정이다. 이러한 피해를 사전에 예방·대비하기 위해 국내·외에서는 재해지도를 제작하여 관리하고 있지만 대부분의 재해지도는 격자형식으로 제작되어 있어 실무자들이 활용하기에는 다소 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 산지재해에 취약한 강원도 강릉시 지방도를 대상으로 산림청에서 개발한 산사태위험지도와 토석류 위험지도를 중첩하여 복합재해지도를 제작하였다. 먼저 산사태위험지도에 유역의 개념을 도로에 적용하고서 지방도로를 200m 간격으로 분할하여 도로 중심으로 유역을 제작하였으며, 해당 유역에 산사태위험면적과 토석류위험면적 값을 이용하여 도로의 등급을 1등급(매우 위험) ~ 5등급(매우 안전)으로 분류하였다. 또한 복합재해지도 결과의 검증을 위해 SINMAP모형을 이용하여 오차율을 비교분석한 결과 15% 이내인 것으로로 나타났다. 본 연구는 복합재해에 대비 할 수 있는 유역의 개념을 적용한 재해지도를 제작하며 도로관리자의 숙련도에 상관없이 재해지도를 쉽게 이해하고 활용 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in identification markers of irradiated foods after treatment of the full-overlapped gravitational field energy (FGFE). Wheat and soybean samples were irradiated at 0-5 kGy of Co-60 gamma energy, and analyzed for photostimulated and thermo luminescence characteristics (PSL and TL) and sprouting rate at 0 and 6th month after FGFE treatment. As a screening method for irradiated samples, PSL photon counts (PCs) for the non-irradiated samples appeared negative (<700 PCs), while irradiated samples gave positive (>5,000 PCs). But FGFE-treated irradiated samples appeared intermediate (700-5,000 PCs), showing decreased PCs during storage. The TL analysis on irradiated samples exhibited glow curve peaks in range of $150-200^{\circ}C$ and TL ratio ($TL_1/TL_2$) was also >0.1. Therefore, identification of irradiated samples was possible using thermoluminescence. But the glow curve range of FGFE-treated irradiated samples shifted from $150-200^{\circ}C$ to $180-230^{\circ}C$ and TL intensity was decreased 37-60% resulting from FGFE treatment. After 6 months of storage, all the samples showed a decrease in TL intensity, but identification was still possible. The sprouting rate of irradiated samples decreased by about 72%, whereas that of FGFE-treated irradiated samples showed by about 85%, as compared to non-irradiated samples. More detailed study is required to investigate sprouting phenomena for FGFE-treated samples.
