  • In neuroscientific research, image segmentation is one of the most important processes. The morphology of axons plays an important role for researchers seeking to understand axonal functions and connectivity. In this study, we evaluated the level set segmentation method for neuronal axons in a Brainbow confocal microscopy image. We first obtained a reconstructed image on an x-z plane. Then, for preprocessing, we also applied two methods: anisotropic diffusion filtering and bilateral filtering. Finally, we performed image segmentation using the level set method with three different approaches. The accuracy of segmentation for each case was evaluated in diverse ways. In our experiment, the combination of bilateral filtering with the level set method provided the best result. Consequently, we confirmed reasonable results with our approach; we believe that our method has great potential if successfully combined with other research findings.

  • 본 논문은 수정된 이방성 확산 펄터를 이용한 영상 개선 방법을 제안하였다. 이를 위하여 최소 신뢰 스케일을 기반으로 하는 센서 잡음 추정과 스케일 스페이스 방법을 도입하였다. 이때 이방성 필터는 구해진 임계값 함수와 국부 기울기에 의해 수정되었다. 모의 실험을 통해 제안한 방법이 평탄 영역에서의 잡음을 거의 증폭시키지 않으면서도 뛰어난 에지 향상을 보임을 증명할 수 있었다.

  • Digital Halftoning convert a continuous-tone images to a binary images. Inverse halftoning addresses the problem of recovering a continuous image from a halftoned binary image. Simple low pass filtering can remove the high frequency noise but it also removes the edge information. Thus the edge information should be separated from the halftoning noise. As a result, the edge of result image is blurring. This paper present that we obtain continuous-tone-image which using Anisotropic diffusion filter. To reduce noise without blurring the edges of reconstructed image use edge map. The experimental results show that proposed method gives a higher PSNR and better subjective quality than conventional methods. As a result, the edge information of reconstructed image reduce blurring.

  • This paper describes recent development activities of the GENESIS code, which is a transport code for heterogeneous three-dimensional geometry, focusing on applications to reactor core analysis. For the treatment of anisotropic scattering, the concept of the simplified Pn method is introduced in order to reduce storage of flux moments. The accuracy of the present method is verified through a benchmark problem. Next, the iteration stability of the GENESIS code for the highly voided condition, which would appear in a severe accident (e.g., design extension) conditions, is discussed. The efficiencies of the coarse mesh finite difference and generalized coarse mesh rebalance acceleration methods are verified with various stabilization techniques. Use of the effective diffusion coefficient and the artificial grid diffusion coefficients are found to be effective to stabilize the acceleration calculation in highly voided conditions.

  • 본 연구는 주어진 관측 multi-spectral (MS)영상을 panchromatic (PAN) 영상 수준으로 고해상도화 하는 영상융합에서 공간 해상력을 향상시키는 과정에 발생하는 분광 왜곡을 완화시키는 방법을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 관측 MS 영상에 대해 GSA PAN-sharpening을 수행하고 분광 조정 후 비등방성 확산을 실시한다. 분광 조정은 PAN-sharpened 영상이 관측 MS 영상과 일치하는 분광적 특성을 가지도록 하나 구역 오류를 발생시킨다. 분광 조정을 실시 한 후 나타나는 구역 오류는 비등방성 확산에 의해 제거된다. 비등방성 확산은 PAN 영상을 기반으로 하여 국지적으로 계산한 전도 계수를 사용하므로 PAN-sharpened 영상이 PAN의 공간적 특성에 일치하는 결과를 산출한다. 분광 조정 전 초기 PAN-sharpening 방법으로 정량적 평가가 우수하고 계산적으로 효율적인 GSA를 제안한다. 본 연구는 2014년 2월 관측된 $1024{\times}1024$ 크기의 미국 Los Angeles 지역의 Dubaisat-2 위성 자료와 $2048{\times}2048$ 크기의 2002년 3월 경기도 안양 지역에서 관측된 IKONOS 자료를 사용하여 실험 평가를 수행하였다. 제안 방법의 결과는 정량적 품질 평가에서 최선이었거나 최선에 가까운 수준의 결과를 산출 했고 특히 분광 오류를 현저히 감소시킨다.

  • An analytical model for predicting the convection-diffusion of solute dumped in a homogeneous open sea of constant water depth has been developed in a time-integral form. The model incorporates spatially uniform, uni-directional, mean and oscillatory currents for horizontal convection, the settling velocity for the vertical convection, and the anisotropic turbulent diffusion. Two transformations were introduced to reduce the convection-diffusion equation to the Fickian type diffusion equation, and then the Galerkin method was then applied via the expansion of eigenfunctions over the water column derived from the Sturm-Liouville problem. A series of calculations has been performed to demonstrate the applicability of the model.

  • Anisotropic DWI - Mapping of the Proton Diffusion "tensor". In neural ordered tissue, it is thought that water diffusion is mainly influenced by the presence of myelin sheaths and intracellular structures. Perpendicular to the fiber tracts, the cholesterol-laden myelin lipid bilayers might restrict or hinder the spins from diffusing through the normally highly permeable cytomembrane. Diffusion along the fiber is more or less determined by subcellular structures, such as the endoplasmatic reticulum, mitochondria, neuro-filaments and macromolecules. In addition to that, the entire complex of axons and stabilizing tissue (i.e., glia cells, astrocytes) is also assumed to influence diffusion due to the tortuosity of proton translation, but the uniform distribution of such cells throughout the brain might render this notion less important as initially anticipated.

  • Anisotropic rotation of C$_{6}$F$_{6}$ in neat liquid is investigated by the analysis of the ν$_{1}$ and ν$_{15}$ (both C-F stretching) bands of Raman spectrum and diffusion constants for the spinning (D$_{II}$) and tumbling (D$_{⊥}$) motions are obtained by the rotational dffusion theory. The same analysis is also carried out for the ν$_{2}$ and ν$_{16}$ (both C-C stretching) bands and both results are compared with the results obtained for benzene in neat liquid. The results show that the reorientation of C$_{6}$F$_{6}$ is highly anisotropic and the anisotropy is greater for C$_{6}$F$_{6}$ than benzene. This is due to the fact that the spinning rate is about the same but the tumbling rate is sharply reduced for C$_{6}$F$_{6}$.

  • Molecular reorientation of oblate symmetric top molecules in the presence of internal rotation is investigated and an analytic expression for the overall reorientational correlation time is obtained. The overall reorientation of the symmetric top is treated by the anisotropic rotational diffusion and the internal rotation is analyzed by employing a model which describes jumps between several discrete states with different lifetimes. The lifetimes thus obtained can be compared with the internal angular momentum correlation time which appears when the internal rotation is treated by a modified extended rotational diffusion model.
