This paper proposes the wavelet image coding using the significant cluster extraction by morphology and the adaptive quantization. In the conventional MRWD method, the additional seed data takes large potion of the total data bits. The proposed method extracts the significant cluster using morphology to improve the coding efficiency. In addition, the adaptive quantization is proposed to reduce the number of redundant comparative operations which are indispensably occurred in the MRWD quantization. The experimental result shows that the proposed algorithm has the improved coding efficiency and computational cost while preserving superior PSNR

In this paper, I propose the wavelet image coding method using band adaptive quantization and the significant cluster extraction. The proposed method can reduce to unnecessary additional seed data which create on conventional MRWD coding, because it eliminate cluster which smaller than structuring element by using morphology. And it make fast coding possible, because it is reduced to computational complexity by using band adaptive quantization. Consequently, the proposed method reduces computational complexity with $20\%{\~}33.3\%$ according to bit rate in quantization process.

This paper presents a new edge detection algorithm in color image. The proposed Adaptive morphological Wavelet-CNN algorithm is divided into two parts : The Adaptive morpholog and WCNN(Wavelet Cellular Neural Networks). It detects the optimal edge with applying this color image to WCNN algorithm, after it does level up a boundary side of a color image by using the adaptive morphology as the threshold of an input color image. Also, it is used not a conventional fixed mask edge detection method but variable mask method which is called a variable BBM. Finally, to show the feasibility of the proposed algorithm, this paper provides by simulation that the color image consists of 30.

Filtering process that separates ground and non-ground points from LIDAR data is important in order to create the digital elevation model (DEM) or extract objects on the ground. The purpose of this research is to select the most effective filtering algorithm through qualitative and quantitative analysis for the existing filtering method used to extract ground points from LIDAR data. For this, four filtering methods including Adaptive TIN(ATIN), Perspective Center-based filtering method(PC), Elevation Threshold with Expand Window(ETEW) and Progressive Morphology(PM) were applied to mountain area, urban area and the area where building and mountains exist together. Then the characteristics for each method were analyzed. For the qualitative comparison of four filtering methods used for the research, visual method was applied after creating shaded relief image. For the quantitative comparison, an absolute comparison was conducted by using control points observed by GPS and a relative comparison was conducted by the digital elevation model of the National Geographic Information Institute. Through the filtering experiment of the LIDAR data, the Adaptive TIN algorithm extracted the ground points in mountain area and urban area most effectively. In the area where buildings and mountains coexist, progressive morphology algorithm generated the best result. In addition, as a result of qualitative and quantitative comparisons, the applicable filtering algorithm regardless of topographic characteristics appeared to be ATIN algorithm.

Saccharomycopsis fibuligera is an amylolytic yeast that exhibits raw starch-degrading activity. In this study, adaptive laboratory evolution was performed to improve the tolerance of S. fibuligera to lactic acid by prolonged repeated batch fermentation in which the lactic acid concentration was gradually increased. The evolved S. fibuligera strain exhibited a significantly enhanced tolerance to lactic acid at concentrations up to 2.5% (w/v), as assessed by determining its specific growth rate using a plate assay. Scanning electron microscopy revealed an elongated and perforated morphology of the parent strain under lactic acid stress, indicating that its membrane might be more prone to damage caused by lactic acid than that of the evolved strain.

The digital image can be distorted by a noise for a transmission or other elements of system. It happen to be vague of a boundary side in the division of an image object, especially, boundary side of an input image is very important because it can be determined to the division and detection element in pattern recognition. Therefore it is proposed an edge detection method of optimal to divide and detect exactly a boundary part. In this paper, it detected the optimal edge with applying this image to Meyer wavelet-CNN algorithm, after it does level up a boundary side of an image by using the adaptive morphology as the threshold of an input image. It confirmed that the proposed algorithm is more superior to the conventional methods and the conventional Sobel method which is an image edge detection algorithm. Especially, it is confirmed by simulation that the proposed algorithm can be got the better result edge at the place of closing to each edges and having smoothly curved line.

In this paper, an algorithm for suppressing acoustic noises contained in stethoscope sound is proposed and implemented in real-time using an embedded DSP system. Sound collected by stethoscope is down-sampled and band-pass filtered, and later an NLMS adaptive filter is used to cancel the acoustic noise induced from external noise sources. Also, the unpredictable impulsive noises due to fabric friction and instantaneous tapping are detected using the SD-ROM algorithm, and suppressed using an algorithm approximating the morphology filter. The proposed algorithm was tested using signals collected with a digital stethoscope mockup, and implemented on an ARM920T-based DSP system.

In this paper, we propose a license plate detection method of running cars in various road images. The proposed method first classifies the road image into day and night images to improve detection accuracy, and then the tail-light regions are detected by finding red color areas in RGB color space. The candidate regions of the license plate areas are detected by using symmetrical property, size, width and variance of the tail-light regions, and to find the license plate areas of the various sizes the morphological operations with adaptive size structuring elements are applied. Finally, the plate area is verified and confirmed with the geometrical and image features of the license plate areas. The proposed method was tested with the various road images and the detection rates (precisions) of 84.2% of day images and 87.4% of night images were achieved.

Accurate suppressive jamming is a prominent problem faced by radar equipment. It is difficult to solve signal detection problems for extremely low signal to noise ratios using traditional signal processing methods. In this study, a joint sensing dictionary based compressed sensing and adaptive iterative optimization algorithm is proposed to counter suppressive jamming in information domain. Prior information of the linear frequency modulation (LFM) and suppressive jamming signals are fully used by constructing a joint sensing dictionary. The jamming sensing dictionary is further adaptively optimized to perfectly match actual jamming signals. Finally, through the precise reconstruction of the jamming signal, high detection precision of the original LFM signal is realized. The construction of sensing dictionary adopts the Pei type fast fractional Fourier decomposition method, which serves as an efficient basis for the LFM signal. The proposed adaptive iterative optimization algorithm can solve grid mismatch problems brought on by undetermined signals and quickly achieve higher detection precision. The simulation results clearly show the effectiveness of the method.

본 논문은 컬러 영상을 명암도에 따른 공간적 객체 분할인 YIQ 모델을 사용하여 객체 분할한 영상의 임계값에 따른 적응적 형태학을 이용하여 영상의 경계면을 레벨 업시킨 후, 이를 웨이브렛에 적용하여 최적의 에지를 검출하였다. 또한, 흑백 영상보다 더 많은 더 정보를 가진컬러 영상을 사용하여, 기존의 영상 에지 검출 알고리즘인 Sobel 에지 검출과 다른 웨이브렛기저 계수를 적용한 에지 검출 방법과 비교하고, 제안된 알고리즘이 기존의 다른 에지 검출보다 우수함을 확인하였다. 특히 에지와 에지의 부분이 가까울 때 정확한 에지를 검출하였으며, 완만한 곡선을 가지고 있는 부분에서 더 우수한 결과 에지를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다.
