  • Convolution Fourier transformation tomographically reconstructs the spatially resolved spray injection rate from direct measuring cells. Asymmetric sprays generated from a twin-hole air shroud injector are tested with 12 equiangular projections of measurements. For each projection angle, line of sight integrated injection rate was measured at 35 positions with equal spacing measuring cells of 3 mm in width, 100 mm in length, 55 mm in depth and 0.5 mm thickness of separating wall. Interpolated data between the projection angles effectively increase the number of projections, which significantly enhances the signal-to-noise level in the reconstructed data. This modified convolution Fourier transformation scheme predicts well the structure of asymmetric sprays. Comparative study has been made between sprays with and without air shrouding. Tomograhpic reconstruction of injection rate from direct measuring cells obtained can be used to estimate the accuracy of volume fraction of spray from the LDPA tomographic reconstruction.

  • In this paper a four-node hybrid stress element is proposed for analysing arbitrarily shaped plates on a two parameter elastic foundation. The element is developed by combining a hybrid plate stress element and a soil element. The formulation is based on Hellinger-Reissner variational principle in which both inter element compatible boundary displacement and equilibrated stress fields for the plate as well as the foundation are chosen separately. This formulation also allows a low order polynomial interpolation functions. Numerical examples are presented to show that the validity and efficiency of the present element for the plate analysis resting on an elastic foundation. In these examples the effect of soil depth, interaction between closed plates on soil parameters, comparison with Winkler hypothesis is investigated.

  • In this paper, a method for 3-D surface reconstruction with two real cameras is presented. The method, which combines the extraction of binocular disparity and its interpolation can be applied to the synthesis of images from virtual viewpoints. The synthesized virtual images are as natural as the real images even when we observe the images as stereoscopic images. The method opens up many applications, such as synthesizing input images for multi-viewpoint 3-D displays, enhancing the depth impression in 2-D images and so on. We also have developed a video-rate stereo machine able to obtain binocular disparity in 1/30 sec with two cameras. We show the performance of the machine.

  • 본 논문에서는 깊이 영상의 해상도를 향상시키는 기법을 제안한다. 최근 TOF(time-of-flight) 방식의 깊이 센서가 깊이 영상 획득에 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 TOF 깊이 센서가 제공하는 깊이 영상은 대부분 저해상도이기 때문에 고해상도의 콘텐츠 제작을 위해서는 깊이 영상의 해상도를 향상시켜주는 것이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 깊이 영상의 해상도를 높이기 위하여 적응적 가중치 보간법을 적용한 후, Bilateral 필터링을 수행하여 품질을 높인다. 일반적으로 영상의 해상도를 높일 때 보간법을 많이 사용하는데, 본 논문에서는 이러한 보간법들을 사용하여 깊이 영상의 해상도를 높였을 때보다 제안하는 기법의 성능이 우수함을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

  • Depth error correction effect for maladjusted stereo cameras with calibrated pixel distance parameter is presented. The proposed neural network technique is the real time computation method based theory of inter-node diffusion for searching the safety distances from the sudden appearance-objects during the work driving. The main steps of the distance computation using the theory of stereo vision like the eyes of man is following steps. One is the processing for finding the corresponding points of stereo images and the other is the interpolation processing of full image data from nonlinear image data of objects. All of them request much memory space and time. Therefore the most reliable neural-network algorithm is derived for real-time matching of objects, which is composed of a dynamic programming algorithm based on sequence matching techniques.

  • In this paper, we propose a method for filling out the occlusions in generating multi-view images from one source image and its ground-truth depth image. The method is based on image inpainting and layered interpolation. The source image is first divided into several layers using depth information. The occlusions are interpolated separately in every layered image using the image inpainting algorithm. Finally, the interpolated layered images are combined to obtain different viewpoint images. Interpolating occlusions with depth-correlated texture information that is contained to each layer makes it possible to obtain more detailed and accurate results than previous methods. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown through experimental results.

  • Electromagnetic (EM) waves used to send signals under seawater are normally restricted to low frequencies (f) because of sudden exponential increases of attenuation (𝛼) at higher f. The mathematics of EM wave propagation in seawater demonstrate dependence on relative permeability (𝜇r), relative permittivity (𝜀r), conductivity (𝜎), and f of transmission. Estimation of 𝜀r and 𝜎 based on the W. Ellison interpolation model was performed for averaged real-time data of temperature (T) and salinity (S) from 1955 to 2012 for all oceans with 41 088 latitude/longitude points and 101 depth points up to 5500 m. Estimation of parameters such as real and imaginary parts of 𝜀r, 𝜀r', 𝜀r", 𝜎, loss tangent (tan 𝛿), propagation velocity (Vp), phase constant (𝛽), and α contributes to absorption loss (La) for seawater channels carried out by using normal distribution fit in the 3 GHz-40 GHz f range. We also estimated total path loss (LPL) in seawater for given transmission power Pt and antenna (dipole) gain. MATLAB is the simulation tool used for analysis.

  • In this paper, we study two important topics in stereoscopic image communication system. One is a disparity estimation (DE) method to obtain the depth information of a scene at the transmitter and the other is an intermediate view reconstruction(IVR) method at the receiver. We propose a new DE method using an edge-preserving directional regularization technique. The proposed DE method smooths disparity vectors in smooth regions and preserves edges without over-smoothing problem. It provides better reconstructed stereoscopic images and improved coding efficiency than the existing regularization techniques. In addition. we propose a new IVR method using interpolation and extrapolation techniques. The proposed IVR method preserves edge regions as well as occlusion regions well. Thus. it gives better intermediate views than the existing IVR methods.

  • We propose a physical simulation method based on the shallow water equation(SWE) to represent water surface effectively. In this paper, the water which can be represented has a much larger width compared to the depth does not have a large vertical direction flow. In order to calculate the water flow efficiently, we start with the shallow water equation as the governing equation, which is a simplified version of the Navier-Stokes equation. In order to numerically calculate the advection term of the SWE, we introduce a new conservtive USCIP(CUSCIP) method which improves the Constrained Interpolation Profile (CIP) method to preserve the physical quantity while increasing the numerical accuracy. The proposed method is based on Kim et. al.'s Unsplit Semi-lagrangian CIP[9], and calculates advection term with additional constraints on term that consider integral values. The experimental results show that the CUSCIP method is robust to the loss of physical quantity due to numerical dissipation, which improves wave detail and persistence.

  • Gridded bathymetric data of 30 seconds apart in Korea marginal seas $(30^{\circ}N{\sim}44^{\circ}N,\;117^{\circ}E{\sim}143^{\circ}E)$ are produced. In order to make the data, both updated gridded data of 1 minute apart on internet sites and all the digital nautical charts issued by National Oceanographic Research Institute (NORI) in Oct. 2007 are used. The reference level of the gridded data is approximate level of lowest low water and the horizontal coordinates are based on the WGS84 ellipsoid. Especially a developed computer program can collect all the sounding data including depth contour directly from the digital charts and UTM coordinates of the data are converted to the WGS84 coordinates from which accuracy of data is significantly improved. An interpolation method is adopted to produce the gridded data which are compared and analyzed against the existing gridded data. In this gridded data we can see significantly detailed topographic features which could not be found in the previous data.
