This paper proposes an approach integrating multiple segmentation methods in a systematic way, which can improve overall accuracy without deteriorating accuracy of highly confident segments of boundaries generated by constituent methods. A segmentation method produces boundary segments, which are then evaluated with an evaluation function considering pros/cons of the current and next methods to apply. Boundary segments with low confidence are replaced by a next method while the other segments are kept. These steps are repeated until all segmentation methods are applied. The proposed approach is implemented for the segmentation of muscles in the Visible Human color images. A Balloon method, a minimum cost path finding method, and a Seeded Region Growing method are integrated. The final segmentation results showed improvements in both overall evaluation and segment-based evaluation.

본 논문에서는 공유 모델링의 대표적인 방법인 결정트리 기반 상태공유 모델을 기반으로 하여 그 출력 확률 분포의 혼합 가우시안 수를 줄임으로써 모델을 최적화하고자 하였다. 결정트리 기반의 상태공유 모델링은 일반적인 방법을 따랐으며 혼합 가우시안 수를 늘려 인식률이 최대가 되는 지점에서 혼합 가우시안을 클러스터링하여 그 수를 줄였다. 클러스터링 시에 필요한 거리 측정 방법이나 가까운 두 가우시안의 합성 방법을 여러 기법을 실험하였다. 이때 인식률은 클러스터링 이전인 97.2%를 유지하였으며 총 혼합 가우시안의 감소율은 1.0%를 보임으로써 모델을 최적화할 수 있었다.

윈도우 방법과 인수분해 방법을 혼합 적용하면 멱승 연산에 사용되는 곱셈 연산의 횟수를 줄임으로써 멱승 연산을 빠르게 수행할 수 있다. 지수가 512비트일 때 윈도우의 크가 5인 윈도우 방법은 607번 정도의 곱셈 연산을 필요로 하는데 반해 윈도우와 인수분해 방법을 혼합한 방법은 599번 정도의 곱셈 연산을 필요로 한다. 이는 현실적으로 가능한 멱승 연산 중에서 가장 적은 수의 곱셈 연산을 요구하는 방법이다.

스크램 제트 엔진의 설계에서 초음속으로 유입된 공기의 짧은 잔류시간으로 인한 연료-공기의 혼합은 가장 중요하며 해결하기 힘든 문제이다. 전헝적인 비행 조건에서 흡입 공기가 극초음속 비행기 엔진 내에서 잔류하는 시간의 단위는 1 ms 정도이어서 짧은 시간 동안 연료와 공기는 효율적으로 혼합되어야 하며, 최대의 추진력을 얻기 위하여 과도한 공력저항없이 연소 가능한 연료-공기 혼합기를 생성시킬 수 있는 효율적인 연료-공기의 혼합 방법이 요구된다. 현재까지 가장 많이 연구되어 온 혼합 방법은 엔진 입구로 들어오는 공기 유동에 수직 방향으로 연료를 분사하는 것으로 이 방법은 연료 유동 방향과 공기 유동 방향이 수직이기 때문에 추력 손실이 생기는 단점을 갖고 있지만, 초음속으로 유입되는 공기에 수직으로 연료를 분사하게되면 분사 위치 앞에 궁형 충격파가 생겨서 감속되어 유동이 회전하는 재순환영역이 생기고 연료의 혼합이 잘 이루어지는 장점이 있다.

As volume rendering has been applied for computer game, the visualization of volume data with surface data in one scene has been required. Though a hybrid rendering of volume and surface data have been developed using the GPGPU functionality, computer games which run on low-level hardware are difficult to perform the hybrid rendering. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid rendering based on DirectX 9.0 and general hardware. We generate the layered depth images from surface data using a new method to reduce the depth complexity and generation time. Then, we perform the hybrid rendering using the layered depth images. In the rendering process, we suggest a new method to transform the coordinate system from a surface coordinate to a volume coorinate and propose an accelerated rendering technique. As the result, we can perform volume-surface hybrid rendering in an efficient way.

When producing recycled asphalt mix, it is important that the old binder of reclaimed asphalt pavement(RAP) should be well melted during blending in the mixer. The recycled asphalt mix is produced by instant mixing(IM) of all materials(RAP, virgin asphalt and new aggregates) all together in the mixer. However, in the same recycled mix, the binder around RAP aggregate was found to show higher oxidation level than the binder coated around the virgin aggregate because the old binder of RAP was not rejuvenated properly while instant mixing. The partially-rejuvenated RAP binder is assumed to be a high stiffness point in IM recycled mix. In this study, the stage mixing(SM) method was introduced; blending RAP and virgin asphalt for the first stage, and then mixing all together with hot new aggregates for the second stage. To compare the effect of the two mixing methods on moisture resistance of recycled mixes, a statistical t-test was performed between SM and IM using indirect tensile strength(ITS) and tensile strength ratio(TSR). Three conditioning methods were used; a 16-h freezing and then 24-h submerging, 48-h submerging, and 72-h submerging in 60℃ water. It was found that the TSR(=ITS_wet/ITS_dry) values of the mixes prepared by SM was clearly higher than the IM mixes, and coefficients of variation of SM mixes were lower than the IM mixes. It was also observed that the ITS_WET of SM was significantly different from the IM at α=0.05 level by statistical t-test. The ITS_WET of SM mix was reduced less than the IM mix in severer conditioned mixes. Therefore, it was concluded that the stage mixing method was an important blending technique for producing better-quality of recycled asphalt mixes, which would show higher moisture resistance than the recycled mixes produced by conventional instant mixing.

$Si_3N_4$ powders were mixed with sintering additives($3Y_2O_3{\cdot}5Al_2O_3$, YAG) by coprecipitation method. Mixing homogeneity, sintered and mechanical properties of coprecipitation-mixed powder compacts were compared with those of mechanically-mixed ones. SIMS-analysis for composition on the surface and in the matrix of prepared powder mixtures showed that the added YAG exists mainly on the $Si_3N_4$ powder surfaces in a form of coating. From this result it could be concluded that coprecipitation method is superior to mechanical mixing in the mixing homogeneity. This mixing homogeneity can accompany an improvement in sintered density, microstructure and consequently the mechanical properties of sintered bodys.

Due to the small size and weight of micro aerial vehicle (MAV), only miniaturized MEMS type sensors are applicable for MAV autonomous flight system. In this paper, we propose a accelerometer and gyro mixing algorithm to improve an attitude performance of MEMS type sensors. The performance of the proposed mixing algorithm is compared with the performance of fuzzy-based mixing algorithm through simulation. The simulation results show that the attitude compensation method through the attitude compensation has better performance than the fuzzy-based mixing method for MAV attitude estimation.

Mixing of molecular grains having different characteristics is very important in many industries such as the food and pharmaceutical industries. With the development of computer simulations, it is common practice to find the optimal mixing conditions through a simulation before the actual mixing task to estimate the proper level of mixing. Accordingly, there has been an increasing need for a mixing index to measure the mix of particles in the simulation process. Mixing indices, which have been widely used so far, can largely be classified into two types: first is the statistical-based mixing index, which is prepared using the sampling method, and the second is the mixing index that is prepared using all the particles. In this paper, we calculated mixing indices in different ways for the data in the course of mixing the particles using the DEM simulation. Additionally, we compared the performance, advantages, and disadvantages of each mixing index. Therefore, I propose a standard that can be used to select an appropriate mixing index.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the porosity of resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) by different mixing methods. Materials and Methods: Five specimens were prepared for each groups according to capsules and mixing methods. Two RMGI capsule and two mixing machines were used for this study. One resin-modified glass ionomer cement is Fuji II LC (F2LC) and the other is Photac Fil Quick Aplicap (PFQ). For Mixing of RMGI capsule, Rotomix using rotating motion and CM-II using shaking motion were used. After measuring height, radius and mass of specimens, Density was calculated. And porosity was measured using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). All data were statistically analyzed using T-test, two-way ANOVA to compare between groups at 95% significance level to evaluate the affect of capsule and mixing method on the porosity. Results: The porosity was observed in all specimens generally. And there is significant differece between porosities according to RMGI capsule and Mixing method. The porosity of PFQ was lower than that of F2LC and the porosity of Rotomix was lower than that of CM-II. Conclusion: There was a difference of porosity according to kind of capsules and mixing methods. When using same capsule, less porosity was observed on PFQ than F2LC. When using same mixing mehod, less porosity was observed on Rotomix than CM-II. Using mixing machine of same coporation as that of RMGI capsule did not lead to lower porosity. Therefore, Selecting optimal mixing machine is important.
