This paper proposes an efficient matching algorithm based on ASIFT (Affine Scale-Invariant Feature Transform) which is fully invariant to affine transformation. In our approach, we proposed a method of reducing similar measure matching cost and the number of outliers. First, we combined the Manhattan and Chessboard metrics replacing the Euclidean metric by a linear combination for measuring the similarity of keypoints. These two metrics are simple but really efficient. Using our method the computation time for matching step was saved and also the number of correct matches was increased. By applying an Optimized Random Sampling Algorithm (ORSA), we can remove most of the outlier matches to make the result meaningful. This method was experimented on various combinations of affine transform. The experimental result shows that our method is superior to SIFT and ASIFT.

In this study, we have generalized pseudo-Finsler map by introducing the concept of semi-Riemannian map and have found pseudo-Finsler eikonal equations using pseudo-Finsler map. After that, we have obtained some sufficient theorems on pseudo-Finsler manifolds for the existence of solutions to the eikonal equation. At the same time, we have introduced a natural definition for the affine maps between pseudo-Finsler manifolds and have reached the affine solutions of them.

Purpose: To apply a computer assisted navigation system to orthognathic surgery, a simple and efficient measuring algorithm calculation based on affine transformation was designed. A method of improving accuracy and reducing errors in orthognathic surgery by use of an optical tracking camera was studied. Methods: A total of 5 points on one surgical splint were measured and tracked by the Polaris $Vicra^{(R)}$ (Northern Digital Inc Co., Ontario, Canada) optical tracking system in two cases. The first case was to apply the transformation matrix at pre- and postoperative situations, and the second case was to apply an affine transformation only after the postoperative situation. In each situation, the predictive measuring value was changed to the final measuring value via an affine transformation algorithm and the expected coordinates calculated from the model were compared with those of the patient in the operation room. Results: The mean measuring error was $1.027{\pm}0.587$ using the affine transformation at pre- and postoperative situations and the average value after the postoperative situation was $0.928{\pm}0.549$. The farther a coordinate region was from the reference coordinates which constitutes the transform matrixes, the bigger the measuring error was found which was calculated from an affine transformation algorithm. Conclusion: Most difference errors were brought from mainly measuring process and lack of reproducibility, the affine transformation algorithm formula from postoperative measuring values by using of optic tracking system between those of model surgery and those of patient surgery can be selected as minimizing the difference error. To reduce coordinate calculation errors, minimum transformation matrices must be used and reference points which determine an affine transformation must be close to the area where coordinates are measured and calculated, as well as the reference points need to be scattered.

A new discretization method for calculating a sampled-data representation of a nonlinear continuous-time system is proposed. The proposed method is based on the well-known Taylor series expansion and zero-order hold (ZOH) assumption. The mathematical structure of the new discretization method is analyzed. On the basis of this structure, a sampled-data representation of a nonlinear system with a time-delayed input is derived. This method is applied to obtain a sampled-data representation of a non-affine nonlinear system, with a constant input time delay. In particular, the effect of the time discretization method on key properties of nonlinear control systems, such as equilibrium properties and asymptotic stability, is examined. 'Hybrid' discretization schemes that result from a combination of the 'scaling and squaring' technique with the Taylor method are also proposed, especially under conditions of very low sampling rates. Practical issues associated with the selection of the method parameters to meet CPU time and accuracy requirements are examined as well. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using a nonlinear system with a time-delayed non-affine input.

참굴(Crassostrea gigas)의 패각운동을 이용하여 Alexandrium 속의 조기 출현모니터링 가능성을 고찰하였다. 지구규모에서 패류독화를 발생시키는 A. fundyense와 잠재적 유독종으로 알려진 A. affine를 이용하여 홀 소자센서(Hall element sensor)를 사용하여 참굴의 패각운동(SVMs)을 측정하였다. 참굴은 Isocrysis galbana를 먹이생물로 하여 안정화 시킨 다음 3일간 절식 시킨 후 실험에 제공하였다. 결과 참굴은 A. fundyense에 대해 세포밀도 20 cells/mL에서 SVMs 횟수가 $10.5{\pm}1.2times/hr$로 증가하여 민감하게 반응하였고, 세포밀도 500 cells/mL에서 재차 $14.1{\pm}5.7times/h$, 5,000 cells/mL에서 $27.9{\pm}11.1times/hr$로 SVMs가 급격한 증가를 보였다. 그러나 A. affine에 대해서는 세포밀도가 300 cells/mL까지 $6.7{\pm}3.9times/hr$로 기준 SVMs와 유사하였고, 세포밀도 1,000 cells/mL 이상에서 $15.3{\pm}10.8times/hr$로 급격히 증가하였다. 즉 A. fundyense는 20 cells/mL에서부터 참굴의 SVMs가 민감하게 반응하였지만, A. affine는 높은 1,000 cells/mL의 세포밀도에서 SVMs가 반응하였다. 이러한 결과에서 유독와편모조에 대한 참굴의 SVMs는 종에 따른 차이가 있어, A. fundyense의 초기발생 예보에는 유용하게 활용 가능하지만, A. affine에 응용하는 것은 어렵다는 결론을 얻었다.

In this paper, we propose a robust real-time myocardial border tracking algorithm for echocardiography. Commonly, after an initial contour of LV border is traced at one or two frame from the entire cardiac cycle, LV contour tracking is performed over the remaining frames. Among a variety of tracking techniques, optical flow method is the most widely used for motion estimation of moving objects. However, when echocardiography data is heavily corrupted in some local regions, the errors bring the tracking point out of the endocardial border, resulting in distorted LV contours. This shape distortion often occurs in practice since the data acquisition is affected by ultrasound artifacts, dropout or shadowing phenomena of cardiac walls. The proposed method deals with this shape distortion problem and reflects the motion realistic LV shape by applying global deformation modeled as affine transform partitively to the contour. We partition the tracking points on the contour into a few groups and determine each affine transform governing the motion of the partitioned contour points. To compute the coefficients of each affine transform, we use the least squares method with equality constraints that are given by the relationship between the coefficients and a few contour points showing good tracking results. Many real experiments show that the proposed method supports better performance than existing methods.

본 논문은 iterated contractive transformations을 이용한 심전도 데이터 압축에 관한 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 이방법은 piecewise self-affine fractal interpolation(PSAFI)에 의해 심전도 신호의 임의 구간들을 표현한다. Piecewise self-affine fractal model은 자기자신의 수축적 유사 변환으로 구성된다고 볼 수 있는 이산 데이터에 사용된다. 제안된 알고리즘은 MIT/BIH arrhythmia 데이터베이스로 평가되었다. PSAFI는 주어진 압축율에서 기존의 직접 압축 방법보다 상대적으로 적은 재생 오차를 나타냈다. 샘플링 주파수는 400Hz이고 resolution은 12bits인 원래 신호에 대해 압축율이 883.9bps일때 평균재생오차(APRD)는 5.39%를 나타냈다.
