The distributions of Cd, Cu, and Zn concentration in soil treated with one (1988) or two (1988 and 1993) applications of sewage sludge at rates of 0, 25, 50, and $100Mg\;ha^{-1}$ (dry weight basis) were determined to assess the accumulation and mobility of the heavy metals. The heavy metals accumulated almost entirely in 0 to 15 cm soil depths. Small amounts of the metals moved out of the tillage zone (0-15 cm depth) into the subsoil, but even at the high rate of sewage sludge, little movement of heavy metals occurred below 100 cm depth. The water-extractable Cd, Cu, and Zn concentrations were very low regardless of the rate of sewage sludge application. Availability of metals as determined by DTPA extraction showed the percentage of DTPA-extractable/total concentration increased with sewage sludge application. In the 0-15 cm depth of sewage sludge treated soil, the percentage of DTPA-extractable/total concentration was higher than 46% for Cd, but the value was less than 27% and 17% for Cu and Zn, respectively. The Cd, Cu, and Zn added to this calcareous clay soil by sewage sludge application were not very mobile, and the amount of plant available form was very small.

This paper describes the development of a simple and quantitative subsidence hazard estimation method appropriate to Korean coal mines using gangway depth information only. In spite of simpleness of estimation method, this new method gives good results close to those obtained using influence function method when applying to a virtual rectangular excavation model and to a closed mine where actual subsidence occurred. Therefore, this method can be effectively applied to the identification of zones liable to subsidence over closed coal mine in Korea where the shape of extraction is very complex and usually unknown.

In stereo vision, when we use two parallel axis images, small portion of object is contained and B/H(Base-line to Height) ratio is limited due to the size of object and depth information is inaccurate. To overcome these difficulities we take a non-parallel axis image which is rotated $\theta$ about y-axis and match other parallel-axis image. Epipolar lines of non-parallel axis image are not same as those of parallel-axis image and we can't match these two images directly. In this paper, we transform the non-parallel axis image geometrically with camera parameters, whose epipolar lines are alingned parallel. NCC(Normalized Cross Correlation) is used as match measure, area-based matching technique is used find correspondence and 9$\times$9 window size is used, which is chosen experimentally. Focal length which is necessary to get depth information of given object is calculated with least-squares method by CCD camera characteristics and lenz property. Finally, we select 30 test points from given object whose elevation is varied to 150 mm, calculate heights and know that height RMS error is 7.9 mm.

In this study, we selected the most effective interpolation method using both the data of sounding the depth of submarine topography and volume-production computer program. After processing the data by volume-production program, and then we selected the most effective interpolation method which nearest actual value of dredged soil quantity. Thus, these interpolation could be used for describing the optimal submarine topography.

We propose one- and two-dimensional reference functions for processing of integral/multiview imaging. The functions provide the synthesis/analysis of the integral image by distance, as an alternative to the composition/decomposition by view images (directions). The synthesized image was observed experimentally. In analysis confirmed by simulation in a qualitative sense, the distance was obtained by convolution of the integral image with the reference functions.

In this paper, we propose a method improving the accuracy of th eregistration coefficients calculated form two range images considering the measurement error. The employed range finder is based on triangulation and the depth measurement error is described with an error covariance matrix, which is based on thesensitivity of the range measurements. Experimental results demonstrate that the registration coefficients obtained with the proposed method are better than the results when the measurment errors are neglected.

This paper proposes a novel method to convert monoscopic soccer videos to stereoscopic videos. Through the soccer video analysis process, we detect shot boundaries and classify soccer frames into long shot or non-long shot. In the long shot case, the depth mapis generated relying on the size of the extracted ground region. For the non-long shot case, the shot is further partitioned into three types by considering the number of ground blocks and skin blocks which is obtained by a simple skin-color detection method. Then three different depth assignment methods are applied to each non-long shot types: 1) Depth estimation by object region extraction, 2) Foreground estimation by using the skin block and depth value computation by Gaussian function, and 3)the depth map generation for shots not containing the skin blocks. This depth assignment is followed by stereoscopic image generation. Subjective evaluation comparing generated depth maps and corresponding stereoscopic images indicate that the proposed algorithm can yield the sense of depth from a single view images.

Information extraction can facilitate the intensive analysis of documents by providing semantic triples which consist of named entities and their relations recognized in the texts. However, most of the research so far has been carried out separately for named entity recognition and relation extraction as individual studies, and as a result, the effective performance evaluation of the entire information extraction systems was not performed properly. This paper introduces two models of end-to-end information extraction that can extract various entity names in clinical records and their relationships in the form of semantic triples, namely pipeline and joint models and compares their performances in depth. The pipeline model consists of an entity recognition sub-system based on bidirectional GRU-CRFs and a relation extraction module using multiple encoding scheme, whereas the joint model was implemented with a single bidirectional GRU-CRFs equipped with multi-head labeling method. In the experiments using i2b2/VA 2010, the performance of the pipeline model was 5.5% (F-measure) higher. In addition, through a comparative experiment with existing state-of-the-art systems using large-scale neural language models and manually constructed features, the objective performance level of the end-to-end models implemented in this paper could be identified properly.

This paper describes the method to reduce the time-cost for depth estimation of an image by learning, on the basis of the Genetic Algorithm, the image's features. The depth information is estimated from the relationship among features such as the energy value of an image and the gradient of the texture etc. The estimation-time increases due to the large dimension of an image's features used in the estimating process. And the use of the features without consideration of their importance can have an adverse effect on the performance. So, it is necessary to reduce the dimension of an image's features based on the significance of each feature. Evaluation of the method proposed in this paper using benchmark data provided by Stanford University found that the time-cost for feature extraction and depth estimation improved by 60% and the accuracy was increased by 0.4% on average and up to 2.5%.
