The number of users and data packets has increased in 4G cellular networks. Therefore, 4G cellular network providers suffer from the network capacity problem. In order to solve this problem, femtocell concept is suggested. It can reduce the coverage hole and enhance the QoS. However, only small number of femtocells experience the large amount of loads. To solve this problem, Mobility Load Balancing (MLB) algorithm is suggested, which is a kind of load balancing algorithm. To distribute the traffic load, MLB algorithm modifies the handover region. If the handover region is reduced by MLB algorithm, some cell edge users are compulsively handed over to neighbor femtocell. In this paper, we analyze the relation between MLB performing period and performance indicators. For example throughput and blocking probability is reduced, if period is decreased. On the contrast, if period is increased, the number of handover frequency is decreased. Using this relation, we suggest the adaptive periodic MLB algorithm. This algorithm includes the advantage of both long period and short period MLB algorithm, such as high throughput, the small number of handover frequency, and low blocking probability.

Motion perception has been tremendously improved in neuroscience and computer vision. The baseline motion perception model is mediated by the dorsal visual pathway involving the cortex areas the primary visual cortex (V1) and the middle temporal (V5 or MT) visual area. However, few works have been done on the extension of neural models to improve the efficacy and robustness of motion perception of real sequences. To overcome shortcomings in situations, such as varying illumination and large displacement, an adaptive V1-MT motion perception (Ad-V1MTMP) algorithm enriched to deal with real sequences is proposed and analyzed. First, the total variation semi-norm model based on Gabor functions (TV-Gabor) for structure-texture decomposition is performed to manage the illumination and color changes. And then, we study the impact of image local context, which is processed in extra-striate visual areas II (V2), on spatial motion integration by MT neurons, and propose a V1-V2 method to extract the image contrast information at a given location. Furthermore, we take feedback inputs from V2 into account during the polling stage. To use the algorithm on natural scenes, finally, multi-scale approach has been used to handle the frequency range, and adaptive pyramidal decomposition and decomposed spatio-temporal filters have been used to diminish computational cost. Theoretical analysis and experimental results suggest the new Ad-V1MTMP algorithm which mimics human primary motion pathway has universal, effective and robust performance.

Recombination activating genes (RAGs) play a crucial role in initiating V(D)J recombination, which is essential for developing adaptive immunity in vertebrates. In this study, we cloned and characterized RAG1/2 cDNA from the marine medaka Oryzias dancena (OdRAG1/2) and investigated their mRNA expression patterns during ontogenetic developmental stages. The OdRAG1 and OdRAG2 cDNA contained open reading frames (ORFs) encoding proteins containing 1,078 and 531 amino acids, respectively. Multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis revealed that OdRAG1 and OdRAG2 are highly conserved with their corresponding orthologs, featuring distinct core and non-core regions. Notably, expression analysis showed that, in contrast to other fish RAGs studied, OdRAG1/2 expression peaked at 0 days post-hatching (DPH). Additionally, for the expression of T and B cell differentiation markers, CD3γ and CD20, also peaked at 0 DPH. Collectively, adaptive immunity in O. dancena potentially begins during embryonic development, which is critical for V(D)J recombination and essential immune component development, suggesting the early ontogenetic stage interactions between innate and adaptive immunity.

We prensent the near-infrared(NIR) images of the asymmetric circumstellar disk around a T-Tauri star in the ${\rho}$ Ophiuchi star-forming region, and two faint stellar objects around central star. These results were obtainted with the Subaru Telescope with HiCIAO(the High-Contrast Instrument with Adaptive Optics) and IRCS(the InfraRed Camera and Spectrograph). The disk shows center-offset from the star and a strong morphological asymmetry along both the major and minor axis. The physical conditions in the disk is derived from the infrared visibilites results and the complete spectral energy distribution using HOCHUNK3D, Monte-Carlo radiative transfer code. Two companion candidates are separated by 11.6 arcsec(~1450 au at 125 parsec) and 4.34 arcsec(~540 au at 125 parsec). This could be the first case, which imaged both of planetary mass companions and disk around same star. We discuss physical structures of the disk, and probablity that two candidates are real companions.

The purpose of this paper is to propose ways to remove false color noise (FCN) generated during de-mosaicing on RGB Bayer pattern images. In case of images sensors adapting Bayer pattern color filters array (CFA), de-mosaicing is conducted to recover the RGB color data in single pixels. Here, FCN phenomena would occur where there is clearer silhouette or contrast of colors. The FCN phenomena found during de-mosaicking process appears locally in the edges inside the image and the proposed method of eliminating this is to convert RGB color space to YCbCr space to conduct smoothing process. Moreover, for edges where different colors come together, censoring based smoothing technique is proposed as a way to minimize color blurring effect.

현재 차량 내 운전자에게 편의성과 안전성을 제공하는 시스템이 활발히 개발 중이고 향후 ADAS(Advanced Driver Assistance System)와 스마트 자동차에서 영상 정보를 이용한 물체 추적과 분석은 매우 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있다. 영상에서 얻을 수 있는 정보 중 현재 도로의 이정표 정보는 중요한 분석 정보로 사용된다. 하지만 국내 도로표지판 검출 연구의 경우 유럽과 북미와 비교하여 연구 개발이 활발히 진행되고 있지 않다. 국내의 경우 도로 이정표에서 영문자뿐만 아니라 한글 문자 정보까지 포함하고 있어 검출이 쉽지 않다. 또한 비교적 밝고 잡음이 적은 검출하기 좋은 환경에서는 검출이 잘 되지만 명암이 뚜렷하지 않고 잡음이 많은 환경에서는 도로 이정표 문자 검출이 어렵다. 이에 본 논문에서는 CLAHE(Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization) 방법을 적용하여 영상이 어둡고 잡음이 많은 환경에서 국내 도로 이정표의 문자 정보를 얻는다. 실험 결과, 기존 방법에 비해 문자 영역 검출 성능이 향상되었다.

Recently high dynamic range imaging technique is hot issue in computer graphic area. We present a progressive tone mapping algorithm, which is based on weighted least squares optimization framework. Our approach combines weighted leastsquaresfiltering with iCAM06, for showing more perceptual high dynamic range images in conventional display, while avoiding visual halo artifacts. We decompose high dynamic range image into base layer and detail layer. The base layer has large scale variation, it is obtained by using weighted least squares filtering, and then the base layer incorporates iCAM06 model. Then, adaptive compression on the base layer according to human visual system. Only the base layer reduces contrast, and preserving detail. The resultshows more perceptual color appearance and preserve fine detail, while avoiding common artifacts.

Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is applied to analyze time series characterized with nonlinearity and nonstationarity. This decomposition could be utilized to construct finite and small number intrinsic mode functions (IMF) that describe complicated time series, while admitting the Hilbert transformation properties. EMD has the capability of being adaptive, capture local characteristics, and applicable to nonlinear and nonstationary processes. Unlike discrete wavelet transform (DWT), IMF eliminates spurious harmonics and retains meaningful instantaneous frequencies. Examples based on data representing natural phenomena are given to demonstrate highlight the power of this method in contrast and comparison of other ones. A presentation of the energy-frequency-time distribution of these signals found to be more informative and intuitive when based on Hilbert transformation.

Whereas the potential of static inelastic analysis methods is recognised in earthquake design and assessment, especially in contrast with elastic analysis under scaled forces, they have inherent shortcomings. In this paper, critical issues in the application of inelastic static (pushover) analysis are discussed and their effect on the obtained results appraised. Areas of possible developments that would render the method more applicable to the prediction of dynamic response are explored. New developments towards a fully adaptive pushover method accounting for spread of inelasticity, geometric nonlinearity, full multi-modal, spectral amplification and period elongation, within a framework of fibre modelling of materials, are discussed and preliminary results are given. These developments lead to static analysis results that are closer than ever to inelastic time-history analysis. It is concluded that there is great scope for improvements of this simple and powerful technique that would increase confidence in its employment as the primary tool for seismic analysis in practice.

In this paper, we design a terminal sliding mode controller based on neural network for nonlinear systems with uncertainties. Terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) method can drive the tracking errors to zero within finite time. Also, TSMC has the advantages such as improved performance, robustness, reliability and precision by contrast with classical sliding mode control. For the control of nonlinear system with uncertainties, we employ the self-recurrent wavelet neural network(SRWNN) which is used for the prediction of uncertainties. The weights of SRWNN are trained by adaptive laws based on Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, we carry out simulations to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control.
