  • In this study, we propose Radial basis function Neural Network(RBFNN) using Recursive Weighted Least Square Estimation(RWLSE) to effectively deal with big data class meteorological radar data. In the condition part of the RBFNN, Fuzzy C-Means(FCM) clustering is used to obtain fitness values taking into account characteristics of input data, and connection weights are defined as linear polynomial function in the conclusion part. The coefficients of the polynomial function are estimated by using RWLSE in order to cope with big data. As recursive learning technique, RWLSE which is based on WLSE is carried out to efficiently process big data. This study is experimented with both widely used some Machine Learning (ML) dataset and big data obtained from meteorological radar to evaluate the performance of the proposed classifier. The meteorological radar data as big data consists of precipitation echo and non-precipitation echo, and the proposed classifier is used to efficiently classify these echoes.

  • At a time when securing driving safety is the most important in the development and commercialization of autonomous vehicles, AI and big data-based algorithms are being studied to enhance and optimize the recognition and detection performance of various static and dynamic vehicles. However, there are many research cases to recognize it as the same vehicle by utilizing the unique advantages of radar and cameras, but they do not use deep learning image processing technology or detect only short distances as the same target due to radar performance problems. Radars can recognize vehicles without errors in situations such as night and fog, but it is not accurate even if the type of object is determined through RCS values, so accurate classification of the object through images such as cameras is required. Therefore, we propose a fusion-based vehicle recognition method that configures data sets that can be collected by radar device and camera device, calculates errors in the data sets, and recognizes them as the same target.

  • $21^{st}$ century is digitally civilized era. Technologies such as AI, Iot, Big Data, Mobile and etc makes this era digitally advanced. These advancement of the technology greatly impacted detection range of the radar. Human's eye sight can see about 20Km and hear 20 ~ 20000 Hz. These limitations can be overcome using radar. This radar technology is used in military, aircraft, ship, vehicle and etc. to replace human eye. However, radar technology is capable of making False Alarm Rate. This document will propose the fix of these problems. Radar's distortion includes beam refraction, diffraction and reflection. These inaccurate data result in deterioration of human judgements and my cause various casualties and damages. Radar goes through annual testing to test how many false alarm is being produced. Normal radar usually makes 10 to 20 False alarms. In emergency situation, if operator were to follow this false alarm, this might result in following false object or take 12 more seconds to follow the right object. This problem can be overcome by using different radar data from different places and angles. This helps reduces False Alarm rate and track the object twice as fast.

  • AIS has been widely used for maritime traffic assessment for its convenience. However, AIS has problems with position missing due to radio interference and transmission distance limit. On the other hand, satellite radar determines the location of ships over a wide sea regardless of the problems. This study proposes a noble method of stepwise threshold determination to detect ships from Sentinel-1. The proposed method is up to 25 times faster than the existing moving window-based threshold determination method, and the detection accuracy is similar.

  • It has been a big problem to estimate rainfall for the studies of mud-debris flows because the estimated rainfall from the nearest AWS (Automatic Weather Station) can tend to be quite inaccurate at individual sites. This study attempts to improve this problem through accurate rainfall depth estimation by applying an artificial neural network with radar rainfall data. For this, three models were made according to utilizing methodologies of rainfall data. The first model uses the nearest rainfall, observing the site from an ungauged site. The second uses only radar rainfall data and the third model integrates the above two models using both radar and observed rainfall at the sites around the ungauged site. This methodology was applied to the metropolitan area in Korea. It appeared as though the third model improved rainfall estimations by the largest margin. Therefore, the proposed methodology can be applied to forecast mud-debris flows in ungageed sites.

  • Development of AI and big data-based algorithms to advance and optimize the recognition and detection performance of various static/dynamic vehicles in front and around the vehicle at a time when securing driving safety is the most important point in the development and commercialization of autonomous vehicles. etc. are being studied. However, there are many research cases for recognizing the same vehicle by using the unique advantages of radar and camera, but deep learning image processing technology is not used, or only a short distance is detected as the same target due to radar performance problems. Therefore, there is a need for a convergence-based vehicle recognition method that configures a dataset that can be collected from radar equipment and camera equipment, calculates the error of the dataset, and recognizes it as the same target. In this paper, we aim to develop a technology that can link location information according to the installation location because data errors occur because it is judged as the same object depending on the installation location of the radar and CCTV (video).

  • Data through meteorological radar includes ground echo, sea-clutter echo, anomalous propagation echo, clear echo and so on. Each echo is a kind of non-precipitation echoes and the characteristic of individual echoes is analyzed in order to identify with non-precipitation. Meteorological radar data is analyzed through pre-processing procedure because the data is given as big data. In this study, echo pattern classifier is designed to distinguish non-precipitation echoes from precipitation echo in meteorological radar data using RBFNNs and echo judgement module. Output performance is compared and analyzed by using both HCM clustering-based RBFNNs and FCM clustering-based RBFNNs.

  • In this paper, we propose a big data platform that can collect information from various sources collected at ocean. Currently operating ocean-related big data platforms are focused on storing and sharing created data, and each data provider is responsible for data collection and preprocessing. There are high costs and inefficiencies in collecting and integrating data in a marine environment using communication networks that are poor compared to those on land, making it difficult to implement related infrastructure. In particular, in fields that require real-time data collection and analysis, such as weather information, radar and sensor data, a number of issues must be considered compared to land-based systems, such as data security, characteristics of organizations and ships, and data collection costs, in addition to communication network issues. First, this paper defines these problems and presents solutions. In order to design a big data platform that reflects this, we first propose a data source, hierarchical MEC, and data flow structure, and then present an overall platform structure that integrates them all.

  • A flash flood is one of the most hazardous natural events caused by heavy rainfall in a short period of time in mountainous areas with steep slopes. Early warning of flash flood is vital to minimize damage, but challenges remain in the enhancing accuracy and reliability of flash flood forecasts. The forecasters can easily determine whether flash flood is occurred using the flash flood guidance (FFG) comparing to rainfall volume of the same duration. In terms of this, the hydrological model that can consider the basin characteristics in real time can increase the accuracy of flash flood forecasting. Also, the predicted radar rainfall has a strength for short-lead time can be useful for flash flood forecasting. Therefore, using both hydrological models and radar rainfall forecasts can improve the accuracy of flash flood forecasts. In this study, FFG was applied to simulate some flash flood events in the Taehwa river basin by using of SURR model to consider soil moisture, and applied to the flash flood forecasting using predicted radar rainfall. The hydrometeorological data are gathered from 2011 to 2021. Furthermore, radar rainfall is forecasted up to 6-hours has been used to forecast flash flood during heavy rain in August 2021, Wulsan area. The accuracy of the predicted rainfall is evaluated and the correlation between observed and predicted rainfall is analyzed for quantitative evaluation. The results show that with a short lead time (1-3hr) the result of forecast flash flood events was very close to collected information, but with a larger lead time big difference was observed. The results obtained from this study are expected to use for set up the emergency planning to prevent the damage of flash flood.

  • We propose a two-dimensional (2D) scattering-center-extraction (SCE) method using sparse recovery based on the compressive-sensing theory, even with data missing from the received radar cross-section (RCS) dataset. First, using the proposed method, we generate a 2D grid via adaptive discretization that has a considerably smaller size than a fully sampled fine grid. Subsequently, the coarse estimation of 2D scattering centers is performed using both the method of iteratively reweighted least square and a general peak-finding algorithm. Finally, the fine estimation of 2D scattering centers is performed using the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) procedure from an adaptively sampled Fourier dictionary. The measured RCS data, as well as simulation data using the point-scatterer model, are used to evaluate the 2D SCE accuracy of the proposed method. The results indicate that the proposed method can achieve higher SCE accuracy for an incomplete RCS dataset with missing data than that achieved by the conventional OMP, basis pursuit, smoothed L0, and existing discrete spectral estimation techniques.
