This paper proposes a reduction scheme for codebook search time in the adaptive codebook using wavelet transformed coefficients. In a CELP coder, pitch estimation with a combined open loop and closed loop search in adaptive codebook needs a lengthy search. More precisely, the pitch search using autocorrelation function over all possible ranges has been shown inefficient compared to the consuming time. In this paper, we propose a new adaptive codebook search algorithm which ensures the same position for the pitch with maximum wavelet coefficient over various scaling factors in Dyadic wavelet transform. A new adaptive codebook search algorithm reduces 25% conventional search time with almost the same quality of speech.

The OCT algorithm needs efficient hardware architecture to compute inner product. The conventional methods have large hardware complexity. Because of this reason. a computation sharing multiplier was proposed for implementing inner product. However, the existing multiplier has inefficient hardware architecture in precomputer and select units. Therefore it degrades the performance of the multiplier. In this paper, we proposed a new efficient computation sharing multiplier and applied it to implementation of 1-D DCT processor. The comparison results show that the new multiplier is more efficient than an old one when hardware architectures and logic synthesis results were compared. The designed 1-D DCT processor by using the proposed multiplier is more high performance than typical design methods.

최근 국내에서 저해상도 위성영상을 이용한 적설 분포의 추출연구가 융설과 관련된 수문학적 연구에 이용되기 시작하였다. 한반도와 같이 넓은 지역을 대상으로 추출하는 과정에서 대기에 의한 방해가 너무 큰 영상은 구름 아래 지표면의 정보를 얻을 방법이 없어 해당 날짜의 영상을 제외 할 수밖에 없는 문제가 생긴다. 본 연구에서는 센서의 특성과 영상의 촬영 시간, 그리고 촬영 각도가 달라 서로 다른 대기의 영향을 받는 Terra MODIS 위성영상과 NOAA AVHRR 위성영상을 이용하여 각각의 적설 분포를 추출하는 방법을 비교 연구함으로써 영상을 분석하는데 있어 구름의 영향을 최소화 하고자 하였다. 2004년부터 2006년까지 겨울철의 적설이 발생한 기간을 대상으로 총 3개년의 영상을 분석한 결과를 바탕으로 두 영상으로부터 추출된 적설분포의 차이를 우리나라의 충주댐 유역을 중심으로 비교하였다. 밴드별 파장대의 반사 특성을 이용한 MODIS snow cover와 임계값을 선정하여 구하는 NOAA AVHRR는 서로 다른 적설분포를 보였다고 판단되며, 이는 해상도와 영상 합성, snow cover 추출 알고리즘의 차이 및 대기 현상의 영향 등으로 인하여 추출면적 값이 차이를 보이는 것이라 생각된다. 두 영상에 의한 추출면적의 비교분석 결과, 적설분포의 추출에 있어서 두 영상을 서로 절충하여 사용할 수 있다고 판단된다.

얼굴표정 인식은 심리학 연구, 얼굴 애니메이션 합성, 로봇공학, HCI(Human Computer Interaction) 등 다양한 분야에서 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 얼굴표정은 사람의 감정 표현, 관심의 정도와 같은 사회적 상호작용에 있어서 중요한 정보를 제공한다. 얼굴표정 인식은 크게 정지영상을 이용한 방법과 동영상을 이용한 방법으로 나눌 수 있다. 정지영상을 이용할 경우에는 처리량이 적어 속도가 빠르다는 장점이 있지만 얼굴의 변화가 클 경우 매칭, 정합에 의한 인식이 어렵다는 단점이 있다. 동영상을 이용한 얼굴표정 인식 방법은 신경망, Optical Flow, HMM(Hidden Markov Models) 등의 방법을 이용하여 사용자의 표정 변화를 연속적으로 처리할 수 있어 실시간으로 컴퓨터와의 상호작용에 유용하다. 그러나 정지영상에 비해 처리량이 많고 학습이나 데이터베이스 구축을 위한 많은 데이터가 필요하다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 실시간 얼굴표정 인식 시스템은 얼굴영역 검출, 얼굴 특징 검출, 얼굴표정 분류, 아바타 제어의 네 가지 과정으로 구성된다. 웹캠을 통하여 입력된 얼굴영상에 대하여 정확한 얼굴영역을 검출하기 위하여 히스토그램 평활화와 참조 화이트(Reference White) 기법을 적용, HT 컬러모델과 PCA(Principle Component Analysis) 변환을 이용하여 얼굴영역을 검출한다. 검출된 얼굴영역에서 얼굴의 기하학적 정보를 이용하여 얼굴의 특징요소의 후보영역을 결정하고 각 특징점들에 대한 템플릿 매칭과 에지를 검출하여 얼굴표정 인식에 필요한 특징을 추출한다. 각각의 검출된 특징점들에 대하여 Optical Flow알고리즘을 적용한 움직임 정보로부터 특징 벡터를 획득한다. 이렇게 획득한 특징 벡터를 SVM(Support Vector Machine)을 이용하여 얼굴표정을 분류하였으며 추출된 얼굴의 특징에 의하여 인식된 얼굴표정을 아바타로 표현하였다.

HIGHT is an 64-bit block cipher, which is suitable for low power and ultra-light implementation that are used in the network that needs the consideration of security aspects. This paper presents a key scheduler that employs the presented LFSR and reverse LFSR that can generate four outputs simultaneously. In addition, we construct new key scheduler that generates 4 subkey bytes at a clock since each round block requires 4 subkey bytes at a time. Thus, the entire HIGHT processor can be controlled by single system clock with regular control mechanism. We synthesize the HIGHT processor using the VHDL. From the synthesis results, the logic size of the presented key scheduler can be reduced as 9% compared to the counterpart that is employed in the conventional HIGHT processor.

This paper presents the new obstacle avoidance method that is composed of vision and sonar sensors, also a navigation algorithm is proposed. Sonar sensors provide poor information because the angular resolution of each sonar sensor is not exact. So they are not suitable to detect relative direction of obstacles. In addition, it is not easy to detect the obstacle by vision sensors because of an image disturbance. In This paper, the new obstacle direction measurement method that is composed of sonar sensors for exact distance information and vision sensors for abundance information. The modified splitting/merging algorithm is proposed, and it is robuster for an image disturbance than the edge detecting algorithm, and it is efficient for grouping of the obstacle. In order to verify our proposed algorithm, we compare the proposed algorithm with the edge detecting algorithm via experiments. The direction of obstacle and the relative distance are used for the inputs of the fuzzy controller. We design the angular velocity controllers for obstacle avoidance and for navigation to center in corridor, respectively. In order to verify stability and effectiveness of our proposed method, it is apply to a vision and sonar based mobile robot navigation system.

In this paper, we present a countermeasure for a various trouble occurred in secure communication of document image. We Propose a security system for transmission of document image using mixing algorithm that the third party cannot conceive secure transmission of information instead of existing scheme which depend on crypto-degree of security algorithm, itself. For this, RM, DM and RDM algorithm for mixing of secure bits are proposed and applied to digital signature for mixing for secure document and mixing for non-secure document by secure document. Security system for document image involves not only security scheme for document image transmission itself, but also digital signature scheme. The transmitter embeds secretly the signatures onto secure document, embeds it to non-secure document and transfers it to the receiver. The receiver makes a check of any forgery on the signature and the document. Because the total amount of transmitted data and the image quality are about the same to those of the original document image, respectively, the third party cannot notice the fact that signatures and secure document are embedded on the document image. Thus, the probability of attack will be reduced.

This paper presents the design and implementation of a new multimedia fixed-point DSP (MDSP) core for portable multimedia applications. The MDSP instruction set is designed through the analysis of multimedia algorithms and DSP instruction sets. The MDSP architecture employs parallel processing techniques, such as SIMD and vector processing as well as DSP techniques. The instruction set can handle various data formats and MDSP can perform two MAC operations in parallel. The switching network and packing network can increase the performance by overlapping data rearrangement cycles with computation cycles. We have designed Verilog HDL models and the 0.6 $\mu\textrm{m}$ Samsung KG75000 SOG library is used. The total gate count is 68,831 and the clock frequency is 30 MHz.

We present an approach to high-level synthesis for a specific target architecture-partitioned bus architecture. In this approach, we have specific goals of minimizing data transfer length and number of buses in addition to common synthesis goals such as minimizing number of control steps and satisfying given resource constraint. Minimizing data transfer length and number of buses can be very important design goals in the era of deep submicron technology in which interconnection delay and area dominate total delay and area of the chip to be designed. in partitioned bus architecture, to get optimal solution satisfying all the goals, partitioning of operation nodes among segments and ordering of segments as well as scheduling and allocation/binding must be considered concurrently. Those additional goals may impose much more complexity on the existing high-level synthesis problem. To cope with this increased complexity and get reasonable results, we have employed two ideas in ur synthesis approach-extension of the target architecture to alleviate bus requirement for data transfer and adoption of genetic algorithm as a principal methodology for design space exploration. Experimental results show that our approach is a promising high-level synthesis mehtodology for partitioned bus architecture.

This paper is used the color space distribution HMMD model presented in MPEG-7 in order to segment and detect the wanted image parts as a real time without the user's manufacturing in the video object segmentation. Here, it is applied the wavelet morphology to remove a small part that is regarded as a noise in image and a part excepting for the face image. Also, it did the optimal composition by the rough set. In this paper, tile proposed video object detection algorithm is confirmed to be superior as detecting the face object exactly than the conventional algorithm by applying those to the different size images.put the of paper here.
