Conventional way to search documents is keyword-based queries using vector space model, like tf-idf. Searching process of documents which is based on keywords can make some problems. it cannot recogize the difference of lexically different but semantically same words. This paper studies a scheme of document search based on document queries. In particular, it uses centrality vectors, instead of tf-idf vectors, to represent query documents, combined with the Word2vec method to capture the semantic similarity in contained words. This scheme improves the performance of document search and provides a way to find documents not only lexically, but semantically close to a query document.

We consider a deformation method suitable for fractal. In IFS fractal, the position of a point is characterized by its code as well as by its coordinates. Code has a meaning of address for fractal. If we move a point by changing its code, the resulting movement shows fractal behavior. We propose three deformation methods based on code information. For the deformation vector of a point in fractal, 1) we use the vector of a given vector field at the point obtained by code transformation, 2) we use the vector constructed by adding predefined displacement vectors according to the code information of the point. Both methods show a fractal-like character as well as an ordinary continuous deformation character. Also, 3) we can deform fern-fractal more naturally by restricting its deforming region using code form.

This paper addresses an adaptive motion vector prediction algorithm to improve the performance of video encoder. The block-based motion vector is characterized by non-stationary local statistics so that the coefficients of LS (Least Squares) based linear motion can be optimized. However, it requires very expensive computational cost. The proposed algorithm using LS approach with spatially varying motion-directed property adaptively controls the coefficients of the motion predictor and reduces the computational cost as well as the motion prediction error. Experimental results show the capability of the proposed algorithm.

Fractal image compression can reduce the size of image data by the contractive mapping that is affine transformation to find the block(called as range block) which is the most similar to the original image. Even though fractal image compression is regarded as an efficient way to reduce the data size, it has high distortion rate and requires long encoding time. In this paper, we presented a hybrid fractal image compression system with the modified SOFM Vector Quantizer which uses improved competitive learning method. The simulation results showed that the VQ hybrid fractal using improved competitive loaming SOFM has better distortion rate than the VQ hybrid fractal using normal SOFM.

There is the temporal correlation of the video sequence between the motion vector of current block and the motion vector of previous block. In this paper, we propose the prediction search algorithm for block matching using the temporal correlation of the video sequence and the center-biased property of motion vectors. The proposed algorithm determines the location of a better starting point for the search of an exact motion vector using the point of the smallest SAD(sum of absolute difference) value by the predicted motion vector from the same block of the previous frame and the predictor candidate point on each search region. Simulation results show that PSNR(Peak-to-Signal Noise Ratio) values are improved up to the 1.06㏈ as depend on the video sequences and improved about 0.19∼0.46㏈ on an average except the full search(FS) algorithm.

There is the temporal correlation of a animation sequence between the motion vector of current block and the motion vector of previous block. In this paper, we propose the scene change detection algorithm for block matching using the temporal correlation of the animation sequence and the center-biased property of motion vectors. The proposed algorithm determines the location of a better starting point for the search of an exact motion vector using the point of the smallest SAD(sum of absolute difference) value by the predicted motion vector from the same block of the previous frame and the predictor candidate point on each search region. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has better detection performance, such as recall rate, then the existing method. The algorithm has the advantage of speed, simplicity and accuracy. In addition, it requires less amount of storage.

본 논문에서는 새로운 움직임 추정(motion estimation, ME) 방식을 사용한 프레임 비율 변환(frame rate conversion, FRC) 기법에 대해 제안한다. 기존의 프레임 비율 변환을 위한 움직임 추정 방식은 영상 압축에서 사용되고 있는 SAD를 사용하여 블록(block) 단위로 움직임 벡터를 추정하는 방식에 기초를 두고 있다. 그러나 잔여 신호(residual signal)를 저장하는 영상 압축과 달리, 잘못된 움직임 추정은 합성된 출력 영상에서 심각한 품질 저하를 가져올 수 있다. 이를 보완하기 위해 움직임 개선(motion refinement, MR)이 사용되고 있지만, 근본적인 해결을 위해서는 정확한 움직임 추정 알고리즘 사용이 필요하다. 특히 SAD를 통한 움직임 추정은 고르지 못한 움직임 벡터장(motion vector field, MVF)을 형성할 수 있으며, 종래의 연구에서 이를 해결하기 위해 SAD(sum of absolute difference)에 벡터의 공간제약(spatial constraint) 항목을 추가하여 비교적 고른 움직임 벡터장을 형성하는 방식이 제시되었다. SAD와 공간 제약 항목의 반영 비율에 따라 움직임 벡터의 중요성과 움직임 벡터장의 일관성이 서로 상충하는데, 기존의 방식은 이 비율을 일정한 상수(constant)값을 사용하고 있으며, 이러한 방식은 이미지의 특성에 따라 결과가 달라진다. 본 논문에서는 SAD와 공간 제약 항목 사이의 반영 비율을 이미지의 특성에 적응하는 방식을 사용하는 움직임 예측을 제시하고, 수행한 결과를 기존의 방식에 의한 결과와 비교하였다.

Magnitude/phase controlling circuit which is composed of attenuator and phase shifter make phase/gain cross-coupling, so too much tuning time is needed to find optimum operation point. In this paper, vector attenuator which control magnitude and phase of input signals is proposed. Vector attenuator in past ignores phase variation characteristics of attenuator, but vector attenuator of this paper compensates phase variation characteristics of attenuator. This vector attenuator consists of 0$^{\circ}$/180$^{\circ}$ phase shifter and low phase shifting attenuator and so forth. A 0$^{\circ}$/180$^{\circ}$ phase shifter has 0$^{\circ}$/179.9$^{\circ}$ phase shifting characteristics at a center frequency 881 MHz and a low phase shifting attenuator has an attenuation of 25dB, within the limit of 3.6$^{\circ}$ phase shift and less than -20dB reflection characteristics at both input and output ports. The designed vector attenuator shows that cartesian coordinate plane of output signal space can be represented correctly.

There is the temporal correlation of the video sequence between the motion vector of current block and the motion vector of previous block. In this paper, we propose a new prediction search algorithm for block matching using the temporal and spatial correlation of the video sequence and local statistics of neighboring motion vectors. The proposed ANBA(Adaptive Neighboring-Block Search Algorithm) determines the location of a better starting point for the search of an exact motion vector using the point of the smallest SAD(Sum of Absolute Difference) value by the predicted motion vectors of neighboring blocks around the same block of the previous frame and the current frame and use a previous motion vector. Simulation results show that PSNR(Peak-to-Signal Noise Ratio) values are improved up to the 1.06dB as depend on the video sequences and improved about 0.01~0.64dB over MVFAST and PMVFAST.

The robust feature vector selection method for the multiple frontal face detection is proposed in this paper. The proposed feature vector for the training and classification are integrated by means, amplitude projections, and its 1D Harr wavelet of the input image. And the statistical modeling is performed both for face and nonface classes. Finally, the estimated probability density functions (PDFs) are applied for the detection of multiple frontal faces in the still image. The proposed method can handle multiple faces, partially occluded faces, and slightly posed-angle faces. And also the proposed method is very effective for low quality face images. Experimental results show that detection rate of the propose method is $98.3\%$ with three false detections on the testing data, SET3 which have 227 faces in 80 images.
