본 연구에서는 가속도 센서의 값을 디지털 신호 처리 과정을 통하여 저역통과 필터(low pass filter), 벡터의 크기(vector magnitude), 롤(roll) 그리고 피치(pitch)를 계산하는 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 필터의 경우 IIR(Infinite Impulse Response)을 이용하였으며 차수는 9차로 하였다. 피험자의 연령은 $25{\pm}5$세의 10명을 기준으로 실험하였으며 앞, 뒤, 좌, 우 방향으로 직각 낙하하도록 하였고 센서 모듈은 오른쪽 허리의 정중앙에 착용하도록 하여 피험자간의 오차가 발생하지 않도록 하였다. 환자의 낙상을 검출하기 위해서 벡터의 크기를 사용하였고 롤과 피치를 이용하여 환자의 낙상 방향을 검출하였다. 결과적으로 피험자 10명의 경우 낙상의 검출률은 100% 였으며 낙상 방향에 따른 앞, 뒤, 좌, 우 판별 정확도는 95% 정도이다. 낙상 방향의 판별은 사고 후 환자를 다룰 때의 주의할 신체부위를 참고하며 재활 운동 시 하체의 어느 쪽이 낙상의 주요인인지 분석하는 보조 자료가 될 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose a sound reception system against surrounding noise for ships based on digital signal processing technologies. In order to suppress unwanted surrounding noises, a digital band-pass filter is designed, which the pass-band of the filter is between 70Hz to 820Hz. Also, we develope a sound direction indicating algorithm with 4 microphones. After filtering the audio signals from 4 microphones, the developed sound direction indicating algorithm can indicate 8 directions. In addition, we implement prototype board for the sound reception using a digital signal processor chip and audio codecs, and verify the proposed algorithm.

무선 통신기술이 발전함에 따라 위치기반 서비스에 대한 관심 또한 증가하고 있다. 그 중 저전력 블루투스 기술을 사용한 비콘(Beacon)은 실내 위치인식이 불가능한 GPS와 달리 실내에서도 측위가 가능하여 사용성이 주목 받고 있다. 그러나 비콘으로부터 수신되는 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indication) 값은 여러 환경요소로부터 영향을 받기 때문에 RSSI값을 기반으로 한 거리측정이 실제거리와의 오차가 크게 나타난다. 이에 따른 문제를 해결하기 위한 기존의 연구들이 존재하지만 평균적으로 10m이하의 거리에서 2m의 오차를 나타내고 있다. 본 연구에서는 RSSI의 오차를 줄이기 위해 확장 칼만 필터와 신호 안정화 필터를 사용하여 Raw Data를 전처리 한 후 산출된 Cleaned Data를 기반으로 각 거리단위에 최적화된 ANN(Artificial Neural Network)모델을 생성하여 거리를 측정하는 기법을 제안한다.

In this study, the effect of seed pre-treatments and pellet coating materials to enhance the efficiency of large-scale propagation of Aster koraiensis seeds were investigated. Seeds were immersed in water for one day, and only those that sank were used for pre-treatment to use filled seeds. Pre-treatments were divided into hormone treatments, with gibberellic acid (GA₃; 200 and 500 ppm) and 24-epibrassinolide (10^-6, 10^-7, and 10^-8M), and priming with potassium nitrate (100 mM of KNO₃). To produce pellet-coated seeds, pellet materials (DTCS or DTK) were applied to control (unprimed) and primed seeds with binders (PVA or CMC). The maximum germination percent (GP) of seeds before pellet coating was 65% (with the priming treatment), and there was no difference in the GP of seeds among hormone treatments. For seeds sown in a growth chamber on filter paper, GP was 41% for control (unprimed/uncoated) seeds, 65% for uncoated primed seeds, 71% for DTCS/PVA-pellet-coated seeds, and 42% for DTK/CMC-pellet-coated seeds. Seeds that were primed first and then pellet-coated showed greatly improved GP, mean germination time (MGT), and germination rate than seeds that were only pellet-coated. For seeds sown in commercial soil in a greenhouse, control seeds had a GP of 27%, whereas primed seeds had the highest GP (58%), and their MGT and GT were 9.4 days and 7.0%·day, respectively. In addition, DTK/PVA-pellet-coated seeds (40%) also had a GP higher than the control (27%), and their MGT was 15-27 days. For seeds sown in sandy-loam soil in a greenhouse, unprimed-pellet-coated seeds and primed-pellet-coated seeds both had GPs ranged of 39%, which were lower than that of control seeds. In general, the seeds that were pellet-coated with DTK had a higher GP than those pellet-coated with DTCS. Furthermore, the MGT of unprimed-pellet-coated seeds was 15.0-19.8 days, which was longer than the MGT of primed-pellet-coated seeds. These results suggest that priming enhances seedling emergence of Aster koraiensis seeds. Moreover, when priming is combined with pellet coating, DTK is a more suitable pellet material than DTCS, and PVA and CMC are equally suitable adhesives.

In this paper, a new adaptive perceptual filter using variable threshold to enhance audio signals degraded by additively nonstationary noise is proposed. The adaptive perceptual filter updates variable threshold each time according to the power of signal and the effect of noise variation. So the noisy audio signal is enhanced by the method which controls a residual noise effectively. The proposed algorithm uses the perceptual filter which transforms a time domain signal into frequency domain and calculates an intensity energy and an excitation energy in bark domain. In this method. the stage updated the response of filter is decided by threshold. The proposed algorithm using vairable threshold effectively controls a residual noise using the energy difference of audio signals degraded by the additive nonstationary noise. The proposed method is tested with the noisy audio signals degraded by nonstationary noise at various signal -to-noise ratios (SNR). We carry out NMR and MOS test when the input SNR is 15dB. 20dB. 25dB and 30dB. An approximate improvement of 17.4dB. 15.3dB, 12.8dB. 9.8dB in NMR and enhancement of 2.9, 2.5, 2.3, 1.7 in MOS test is achieved with the input signals. respectively.

Video Segmentation is an essential part in region-based video coding and any other fields of the video processing. Among lots of methods proposed so far, the watershed method in which the region growing is performed for the gradient image can produce well-partitioned regions globally without any influence on local noise and extracts accurate boundaries. But, it generates a great number of small regions, which we call over segmentation problem. Therefore we proposes that adaptive trimmed mean filter for resolving the over segmentation of image. Simulation result, we confirm that proposed ATM filter improves the performance to remove noise and reduces damage for the clear degree of image in case of the noise ratio of 20% and over.

In many multimedia applications, image compression is required to substantially reduce the amount of image data. This compression, however, sometimes brings artifacts. Typical artifacts are blocking artifacts and mosquito noise in DCT-coded images, and ringing artifacts around edges in wavelet-coded images. We propose a new directional postprocessing algorithm, which includes detection of the edge direction, interpolation scheme, and directional nonlinear filtering, to enhance the quality of decoded images. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is as effective as or more effective than other nonlinear filtering techniques.

We propose an image filtering technique that removes various image styles. To destylize a given image, we define image styles as repeated patterns existing in the image. For dll pixels of the image, we compute image styles as style vectors. We remove image styles by using bilateral filtering based on these style vectors. Destylization results show well smoothed images while preserving feature boundaries. Our method effectively removes image styles and reveals image structures clearly, and results can be applied to several applications such as texture transfer.

We proposed a optimal clock period selection algorithm for low power Register Transfer Level design. The proposed algorithm use the way of maintaining the throughput by reducing supply voltage after improve the system performance in order to minimize the power consumption. In this paper, it select the low power to use pipeline in the transformation of architecture. Also, the proposed algorithm is important the clock period selection in order to maximize the resource sharing. however, it execute the optimal clock period selection algorithm. The experiment result is to set the same result AR and HAL filter on the high level benchmark and to reduce in the case of two pipe stage 10.5% and three pipe stage as many as 33.4%.
