동영상을 고효율로 압축할 수 있는 중요한 기술 중의 하나가 움직임 추정 기술이다. 움직임 추정 기술에서 가장 널리 사용되는 탐색 방식과 정합오차를 판단하는 기준은 각각 전역 탐색(FS: Full Search)알고리듬과 Sum of Absolute Differences(SAD)이다. 하지만, FS와 SAD를 사용한 움직임 추정기술은 인코더 전체 계산량의 50%이상을 차지하게 된다. 무선 통신 및 인터넷 환경에서 사용되는 응용프로그램에 대해서는 많은 계산량이 실시간 전송을 어렵게 만든다. 이러한 이유로, 동영상 압축 기술에서 계산량을 줄이는 방법이 중요하게 되었다. 그 결과로, SAD대신 다른 정합 오차 기준을 사용하여 움직임 추정기술의 계산량을 줄이는 알고리듬들이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 계산량을 줄이면서 하드웨어 구현 시 많은 이점을 가진 1비트 변환 (One-bit Transform, 1BT)알고리듬과 1비트 변환의 성능을 향상시킨 제한된 1비트 변환(Constrained one-bit transform, C-1BT)을 소개하고 C-1BT방법에 있어서 기존 방식의 빠른 인코딩속도를 유지하면서 PSNR을 증가시키는 알고리듬을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리듬에서는 기존 C-1BT에서 고정해서 사용한 파라미터 D값을 대신에 현재블록과 동일한 위치에 있는 참조영역의 블록과 그 주변블록의 움직임벡터 정보를 이용해서 블록의 움직임 정도를 판단하고, 블록단위로 D값을 적응적으로 결정한다. 실험결과는 제안하는 알고리듬이 기존의 알고리듬과 비교하여 평균 0.11dB PSNR 증가를 보여 준다.

Recently the number of motorcycles has increased in urban area, and it is believed that motorcycle is one of the air pollution and greenhouse gas emission sources. But the greenhouse gas emission from motorcycle has been high uncertainty due investigation of a lack of activity data and emission factors in Korea. So in this study, the greenhouse gas emission from motorcycle is estimated by considering the population of moped and VKT(vehicle kilometers travelled) of motorcycle by recent other studies. And the emissions by IPCC Tier 2 and Tier 3 methodology are calculated and compared. As the results, the nationwide $CO_2$ equivalent emissions from motorcycles by Tier 2 and Tier 3 method are calculated as 2,758 kton/yr and 2,739 kton/yr in 2008. The contribution ratio of this emission is estimated as 2.7% in on-road transport sector.

The address system in Korea was changed to the road-based system in 2014, but the current address coordinates are still largely based on the old, parcel-based system. Compared to the parcel-based address system that defines the center of a parcel as its coordinates, the road-based system locates the coordinates at a certain distance away from the road on which the parcel fronts. The difference in coordinates between these two systems is small, but it can be crucial for micro-level modelling. In order to assess the impact of the discrepancy between the two address systems, this study measured the degree of air pollution exposure at two different locations, the road-based address coordinates and the parcel-based address coordinates, for each of 252 buildings in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul. The air pollution values were estimated using a microscopic air pollution dispersion model, CALINE4, and t-tests and F-tests were conducted to evaluate statistical significance on the observed difference. The results showed a considerable difference in the level of air pollution exposure between the two address systems, suggesting that the on-going use of the parcel-based address coordinates could cause potentially significant errors in micro-level analysis.

This paper presents the Doppler Scanning technique which enables us to detect the relative positions of moving distributed sources using Doppler frequency shift estimate when the moving source consists of distributed sources with different signature frequencies. Doppler frequency shifts of characteristic frequencies of machinery noise sources such as ship's generator and propeller, with tine along CPA (Closest Point of Approach of moving source) are unique, and can be functioned with respect to each source position. Therefore, this technique can be applied to estimate the relative geometrical positions between machinery noise sources. The Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) which has a high frequency resolution with high time resolution, is adopted for improving accuracy of Doppler frequency shift estimate geometric resolution of machinery positions since machinery noise sources show in general low frequency band characteristics with limited spacial distance. The performance of the technique is examined by the numerical simulations and is verified by the experiment using loudspeaker sources on the roof of the car.

It is well known that point positioning using a C/A-code receiver is severely biased by errors in pseudorange. This paper shows the procedures of quantitive analysis for several error elements and that some methods to monitor SA(selective availability) of witch process is not opened are proposed. It is possible to verify the effects of SA in the Doppler shift and receiver clock drift variation. Easy methods to reduce SA effects are to fit second order polynomials for the one and a linear function for the other. With periodic autocorrelation functions. SA effects are analyzed and first order Gauss-Markov process parameters are decided.

Since Greenhouse Gas Inventory & Research Center (GIR) of Korea was founded in 2010, the annual greenhouse gas inventory reports, one of the collections of GIR's major affairs, have been published from 2012. In the reports many items related to greenhouse gas emission quantities are included, but among them uncertainty values are replaced to basic values which IPCC guideline suggests. Even though IPCC guideline suggests the equations of each Tier level in details, the guideline recommends developing nation's own methodology on uncertainty which is closely related to statistical problems such as the estimation of a probability density function or Monte carlo methods. In the road transportation sector the emissions have been calculated by Tier 1 but the uncertainties have not been reported. This study introduce a bootstrap technique and Monte carlo method to estimates annual emission quantity and uncertainty, given activity data and emission factors such as annual traveled distances, fuel efficiencies and emission coefficients.

This paper proposes a method for enhancing detection performance and reducing computational cost when detecting a human face by applying B-spline active contour to the frame difference of consecutive images. Firstly, the method estimates amount of user's motion using kurtosis. If the kurtosis is smaller than a pre-defined threshold, it is considered that the amount of user's motion is insufficient and thus the contour fitting is not applied. Otherwise, the contour fitting is applied by exploiting the fact that the amount of motion is sufficient. Secondly, for the contour fitting, difference edges are detected by combining the distance transformation of the binarized frame difference and the edges of current frame. Lastly, the face is located by assigning the contour fitting process to the detected difference edges. Kurtosis-based motion amount estimation can reduce a computational cost and stabilize the results of the contour fitting. In addition, distance transformation-based difference edge detection can enhance the problems of contour lag and discontinuous difference edges. Experimental results confirm that the proposed method can reduce the face localization error caused by the contour lag and discontinuity of edges, and decrease the computational cost by omitting approximately 39% of the contour fitting.

This study attempts to estimate the complementarity between 21 cities in the Korean Southeastern Region using data on the network time distance and the volume of flow between the cities. Four types of flows recognized are people, commodities, information and finance. The first two types of flows are thought to be made on the transportation network while the last two are on the communication network. For the purpose of the study, the expected volumes of flows between cities are first estimated using the gravity-based regression and doubly-constrained entropy maximization models. These baseline volumes are then subtracted from the observed volumes of flows (of people and commodities) or the estimated volumes of flows (of information and finance) in order to identify positive differences or complementarities. The result shows that these four types of complementarity flows form distinctive urban networks in terms of spatial pattern and urban hierarchy. This suggests that more customized strategies to different types of complementarity are recommended to properly address the issues related to network infrastructure provision in the pursuit of the network city model in the region.

The objective of this study is to estimate and analyze the traffic density of continuous flow using the trajectory of individual vehicles and the headway of sample probe vehicles-front vehicles obtained from ADAS (Advanced Driver Assitance System) installed in sample probe vehicles. In the past, traffic density of continuous traffic flow was mainly estimated by processing data such as traffic volume, speed, and share collected from Vehicle Detection System, or by counting the number of vehicles directly using video information such as CCTV. This method showed the limitation of spatial limitations in estimating traffic density, and low reliability of estimation in the event of traffic congestion. To overcome the limitations of prior research, In this study, individual vehicle trajectory data and vehicle headway information collected from ADAS are used to detect the space on the road and to estimate the spatiotemporal traffic density using the Generalized Density formula. As a result, an analysis of the accuracy of the traffic density estimates according to the sampling rate of ADAS vehicles showed that the expected sampling rate of 30% was approximately 90% consistent with the actual traffic density. This study contribute to efficient traffic operation management by estimating reliable traffic density in road situations where ADAS and autonomous vehicles are mixed.

배열센서를 사용한 표적의 위치 추정은 레이다 및 소나에서 잘 알려진 문제이다. 최근에 Lee 등은 1 차원 수평 선배열 센서만을 사용하여 다중경로를 통해 들어오는 신호로부터 표적의 3 차원 위치를 추정하였다. 그러나 이 알고리즘에서 수중에서의 음속은 수심에 관계없이 일정하다고 가정하였기 때문에 음속이 수심에 따라 다양하게 변화하는 실제 수중환경에서는 그 추정성능이 현저히 저하된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 표적의 거리, 깊이, 방위각으로 구성되는 3 차원 위치 추정을 위해 비균일 음속환경에서의 음파전달모델(ray propagation model)을 이용한 ML 기법(maximum likelihood estimation)을 적용하였으며 일정한 음속을 가정한 Lee 기법의 추정치를 초기값으로 한 탐색을 통해 ML 기법의 연산량을 감소시켰다.
