This paper presents a spatial-level nonparametric multi-focus image fusion technique based on kernel estimates of input image blocks' underlying class-conditional probability density functions. Image fusion is approached as a classification task whose posterior class probabilities, P($wi{\mid}Bikl$), are calculated with likelihood density functions that are estimated from the training patterns. For each of the C input images Ii, the proposed method defines i classes wi and forms the fused image Z(k,l) from a decision map represented by a set of $P{\times}Q$ blocks Bikl whose features maximize the discriminant function based on the Bayesian decision principle. Performance of the proposed technique is evaluated in terms of RMSE and Mutual Information (MI) as the output quality measures. The width of the kernel functions, ${\sigma}$, were made to vary, and different kernels and block sizes were applied in performance evaluation. The proposed scheme is tested with C=2 and C=3 input images and results exhibited good performance.

갈륨 질화물 (GaN) 기반의 발광다이오드(Light Emitting Diode, LED)는 최근 디스플레이, 교동신호등, 휴대폰용 키패드의 광원 등에 널리 사용되는 전자소자로, 차세대 조명용 광원으로도 각광받고 있다. 일반적인 수평 구조의 LED에 비해 수직형 구조 LED 는 발광면이 n-GaN 표면 전체이며, 전류 확산 특성이 매우 뛰어남으로 인해 차세대 구조라고 표현되어 진다. 이런 구조에서 활성층 영역에서의 균일한 전류 분포는 전류밀집 현상을 억제하여 결과적으로 광학적 특성을 향상시킨다. 따라서 현재까지도 전류확산에 따른 발광다이오드의 성능향상에 대한 연구가 다각도로 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수직형 GaN LED 의 전극 패턴에 따른 활성층 영역에서의 전류밀도 분포에 대해 조사하였다. 전극 패턴의 크기 및 구조 변화에 따른 활성층 영역에서의 전류분포도를 삼차원 회로 모델을 이용하여 분석하였다. 또한 활성층 영역으로 주입되는 전류 밀도의 크기가 내부양자효율에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보았다. 활성층 영역에서의 균일한 전류밀도 분포를 갖는 전극구조를 설계하였으며, 각각의 전극구조를 적용한 수직형 GaN LED의 전기/광학적 특성에 대해 전산모사 하였다. 최종적으로, n-GaN 위 전극의 크기 및 구조 변화에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과를 토대로, 균일한 전류분포 및 내부 양자효율 향상을 위한 전극패턴 설계 방침을 제안한다.

Recent advances in airborne LiDAR technology allow rapid and inexpensive measurements of topography over large areas. The generation of DTM/DEM is essential to numerous applications such as the fields of civil engineering, environment, city planning and flood modeling. The demand for LiDAR data is increasing due to the reduced cost for DTM generation and the increased reliability, precision and completeness. In order to generate DTM, measurements from non-ground features such as building and vegetation have to be classified and removed. In this paper, a segmented morphology filter was developed to detect non-ground LiDAR measurements. First, segments LiDAR point clouds based on the elevation. Secondly classifies those protruding segments into non-ground points. Those non-ground points such as building and vegetation are removed, while ground points are preserved for DTM generation. For experiments, data sets used in Comparison of Filters (ISPRS, 2003) depicting urban and rural areas were selected. The experimental results show that the proposed filter can remove most of the non-ground points effectively with less commission and omission errors.

수문학적 가뭄 발생의 직접적 영향은 강수부족량이나, 다양한 사회경제적 인자들은 수문학적 가뭄에 간접적으로 영향을 미치고 있다. 물관리 선진기관에서는 인간의 활동 및 물관리 방식에 따라 수문학적 가뭄을 심화시키거나 완화시킬 수 있음을 인지하고, 인간의 물사용이 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위한 다양한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강수량 및 미래의 인구변화에 따른 수문학적 가뭄의 영향의 정도를 판단함으로써, 인간의 활동이 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 제시하고자 한다. 충정북도 시군지역을 대상지역으로 선정하였으며, 시군 장래인구 추정값을 미래 인구자료로, 미래 유출량이 산정되어 제공되는 RCP 4.5와 RCP 8.5시나리오를 활용하여 미래 가뭄상황 예측하였다. 강수량 및 인구변화가 수문학적 가뭄에 미치는 영향 평가를 위하여 코플라함수 기반의 베이지안 네트워크 모형이 활용하였다. 베이지안 네트워크는 강수량, 인구밀도, 수문학적 가뭄사이의 관계 도출을 위하여 활용되었으며, 베이지안 네트워크 내의 결합확률의 산정을 위하여 코플라 함수가 활용되었다. 미래의 강수량 및 인구밀도의 변화에 따른 수문학적 가뭄의 영향 관계를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 강수량이 인구밀도보다 수문학적 가뭄의 발생에 영향을 미치며, 약 0.2~0.3 정도 발생확률이 크게 산정되었다. 두 인자를 동시에 고려할 경우, 강수량이 적고, 인구밀도가 높아지는 조건(F(강수량)=0.1, F(인구밀도)=0.9)에서는 조건부 CDF 변화율이 크게 나타나, 곧 수문학적 가뭄의 위험성이 높음을 확인할 수 있었다. 인구밀도는 수문학적 가뭄의 발생 위험성을 높이 알려져 있으나, 정량적으로 그 값을 제시한 연구 사례는 찾기 어렵다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 가뭄의 영향정도를 정량적으로 표현하였으며, 한 인자만의 영향이 아닌 두 개 이상의 인자들의 복합적인 영향 정도를 제시함으로써 수치적인 비교가 가능하게 하였다. 미래 추정 인자가 인구자료가 한정적이라 인구 자료만을 활용하여 수문학적 가뭄에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으나, 다른 사회경제적 지표를 활용하여 미래 변화에 따른 미래 수문학적 가뭄의 영향 정도의 비교 및 분석 결과를 바탕으로 가뭄 대응 우선순위 선정을 위한 연구자료로 활용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

This study aims to understand the relationship between lineaments and epicenters in Geochang region, Gyungsangnam-do, South Korea. An instrumental observation of earthquakes has been started by Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) since 1978 and there were 6 earthquakes with magnitude ranging 2 to 2.5 in Geochang region from 1978 to 2016. Lineaments were extracted from LANDSAT 8 satellite image and shaded relief map displayed in 3-dimension using Digital Elevation Model (DEM). Then, lineament density was statistically examined by hotspot analysis. Hexagonal grids were generated to perform the analysis because hexagonal pattern expresses lineaments with less discontinuity than square girds, and the size of the grid was selected to minimize a variance of lineament density. Since hotspot analysis measures the extent of clustering with Z score, Z scores computed with lineaments' frequency ($L_f$), length ($L_d$), and intersection ($L_t$) were used to find lineament clusters in the density map. Furthermore, the Z scores were extracted from the epicenters and examined to see the relevance of each density elements to epicenters. As a result, 15 among 18 densities,recorded as 3 elements in 6 epicenters, were higher than 1.65 which is 95% of the standard normal distribution. This indicates that epicenters coincide with high density area. Especially, $L_f$ and $L_t$ had a significant relationship with epicenter, being located in upper 95% of the standard normal distribution, except for one epicenter in $L_t$. This study can be used to identify potential seismic zones by improving the accuracy of expressing lineaments' spatial distribution and analyzing relationship between lineament density and epicenter. However, additional studies in wider study area with more epicenters are recommended to promote the results.

A suggestion has been made for neutron dosimetric techniques using activation and threshold detectors in criticality accidents. Neutron dosimetrical parameters, namely, the fission spectrum-averaged cross-sections of some threshold reactions and fluence-to-dose conversion factors have been calculated by the use of an electronic computer. It appears that detectors having comparatively high threshold energy give more fine information on spectral deformation in criticality accidents, while detectors with low threshold energy are of usefulness for measuring fast neutron fluence regardless of fissioning types. Unexpectedly it is found that the fission spectrum-averaged cross sections of the $^{32}S(n,\;p)^{32}P$ reaction is not sensitive to analytical forms of fission neutron spectrum: the modified Cran-berg and Maxwellian forms. In addition, the fluence-to-dose conversion factors seem to be insensitive to both spectral functions and fissioning types.

In this letter, we have derived another exact performance analysis for the OADF(opportunistic adaptive decode-and-forward) relay systems over Rayleigh fading channels. Based on error-events at relay nodes, the received instantaneous SNR(signal-to-noise ratio) is presented and its PDF(probability density function) is expressed as a more tractable form in which the number of summations and the length of each summation are specified. Then, exact average error rate, outage probability, and average channel capacity are obtained as general forms. Simulation results are finally presented to validate that the proposed analytical expressions can be a unified frame work covering all Rayleigh fading channel conditions. Furthermore, it is confirmed that OADF schemes can outperform the other schemes on the average error rate, outage probability, and average channel capacity.

Random process plays a major role in wireless communication system to analytically derive the probability distribution function of the various statistical distribution. In this paper, we derive the decreasing function of the exponential distribution under the given condition which is expressed as wireless channel condition. The probability distribution function of Gaussian, Laplacian, Rayleigh and Nakagami distribution are also derived. Extensive simulation results of these statistical distributions are provided to prove that random process has a significant role in the wireless communications. In addition, the Rayleigh and Rician channels show specific examples of visible distance communication and invisible distance channel environment. This paper is motivated by that we assume a block fading channel model, where the channel is constant during a transmission block and changes independently between consecutive transmission block, can achieve a better performance in high SNR regime with i.i.d channel. This algorithm for realizing these transforms can be applied to the Kronecker MIMO channel.

Two strains of branched wheat introduced from CIMMYT were crossed with two varieties of normal headed common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The number of genes conditioning branching trait in the two strains was determined from the studies of $F_1$ and $F_2$ populations under longday and shortday conditions. Branching strains PH 119 appeared to have three recessive genes and PH 127 two receive genes. The segregating ratio of branching vs normal was unaffected by the different photoperods but the expression of branching trait was little more vigorous under the shortday condition. Both PH 119 and PH 127 had a single dominant gene for glume pubescence. Association between branching trait and glume pubescence was determined with the $X^2$ -test for independence. Glume pubescence was not associated with branching in PH119 $\times$ Chugoku 81 but was associated in PH119 $\times$ Olmil (p < 0.05).

The open set recognition method should be used for the cases that the classes of test data are not known completely in the training phase. So it is required to include two processes of classification and the validation test. This kind of research is very necessary for commercialization of face recognition modules, but few domestic researches results about it have been published. In this paper, we propose an open set face recognition method that includes two sequential validation phases. In the first phase, with dummy classes we perform classification based on sparse representation. Here, when the test data is classified into a dummy class, we conclude that the data is invalid. If the data is classified into one of the regular training classes, for second validation test we extract four features and apply them for the proposed decision function. In experiments, we proposed a simulation method for open set recognition and showed that the proposed validation test outperform SCI of the well-known validation method
