We developed a new PDP gray scale implementation method on the basis of the quantized memory addressing(QMA) principle. We defined three wall charge states; 'fully-on', 'off', and 'half-on', by controlling the width of address pulses. With these three wall charge state, we were able to express 255 level gray scale with only 7 sub-fields. Furthermore, in contrast to the conventional driving methods, the sub-field combinations for any two adjacent gray levels differ by only 1 sub-field, at worst, and therefore, eliminate the dynamic false contours. Since this method use 7 sub-field, the sustain discharge Period is increased by more than $70\%$ compared to the 12 sub-field method which reduces the dynamic false contours.

In this paper, the active backlight control technology with data processing algorithm was developed in order to improve image quality for IPS-mode LCD-TV applications. The image blinking problem caused by repeatedly abrupt change of the backlight luminance was solved by algorithms-Fba(Flexible Boundary algorithm) and Cfa(Cumulative Feedback algorithm)-and the optimized number and space of backlight dimming steps based on perception. In the IPS-mode 42" TFT-LCD panel, the dynamic contrast ratio can be more than twice the typical level by means of lower block luminance and higher white luminance. Additionally, Power consumption and LCD temperature was decreased.

본 논문에서는 양방향 필터와 (bilateral filter) 선형 사상 함수를 (linear mapping function) 이용한 역 톤매핑 (inverse tone mapping, iTMO) 알고리즘을 제안한다. 상용 HDR (high dynamic range) 디스플레이가 (display device) 보급됨에 따라 이미 존재하는 수 많은 LDR (low dynamic range) 영상을 활용하여 HDR 디스플레이에서 시청할 수 있도록 동적 범위를 (dynamic range) 확장하는 (expand) 역 톤 매핑 방법이 개발 되어야 한다. 여러 논문을 통해 다양한 역 톤 매핑 방법이 제안되어 왔는데, 대부분의 방법이 HDR 디스플레이의 동적 범위에 맞춰 LDR 영상의 동적 범위를 확장하는 것에 그쳤다. 확장하는 방법은 다양하지만, 동적 범위의 한계로 인해 LDR 영상에서 사라진 세부 사항을 (detail) 복원하는 것에는 전혀 효과적이지 않았다. 이에 본 논문에서는 LDR 영상의 동적 범위를 확장하는 것뿐만 아니라 LDR 영상에서 표현되지 못한 디테일을 복원하는 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 입력 영상에 양방향 필터를 적용하여 영상을 기본 계층과 (base layer) 세부 계층으로 (detail layer) 분해한 후 기본 계층에 대해서는 동적 범위에 맞게 확장하고, 세부 계층에 대해서는 디테일을 복원하기 위해 선형 사상 함수를 적용하였다. 실험을 통해서 다른 iTMO 방법에 비해 세부 사항을 효과적으로 복원할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, process of dynamic powder compaction is investigated experimentally using impact of drop hammer and die tube. A series of test is performed using aluminum powder with different grain size. The energy of compaction of powder is determined by measuring height of hammer and the results presented in term of compact density and rupture stress. This paper also presents a mathematical modeling using experimental data and neural network. The purpose of this modeling is to display how the variations of the significant parameters changes with the compact density and rupture stress. The closed-form obtained model shows very good agreement with experimental results and it provides a way of studying and understanding the mechanics of dynamic powder compaction process. In the considered energy level (from 733 to 3580 J), the relative density is varied from 63.89% to 87.41%, 63.93% to 91.52%, 64.15% to 95.11% for powder A, B and C respectively. Also, the maximum rupture stress are obtained for different types of powder and the results shown that the rupture stress increases with increasing energy level and grain size.

The goal of this study is a stability evaluation through eigenvalue and rotor dynamics analysis of the vacuum pump. The vacuum pump used is a roots type pump, one of the dry middle vacuum pumps, is necessary at the procedure to produce semiconductor and display. The eigenvalue evaluation is solved by numerical analysis through using Modal test and 2D 3D models. Both the experiment and the analysis result are similar, the analysis result using 2D is more oculate the 3D model comparing with test result. So rotor dynamic evaluation is performed through using 2D model. Rotor dynamic evaluation used the campbell diagram and root locus map which were acquired by complex eigenvalue analysis. And we checked minimum clearance of vacuum pump composition between two rotors through unbalance response analysis. Thus, vacuum pump, the target object of this study, was evaluated to be operated stably.

Recently, the standardization of backward compatible JPEG image coding for high dynamic range (HDR) image has been undertaken to establish an international standard called "JPEG XT." The JPEG XT consists of two layers: the base layer and the residual layer. The base layer contains tone mapped low dynamic range (LDR) image data and the residual layer contains the error signal used to reconstruct the HDR image. This paper gives the result of a study to evaluate the overall performance of tone mapping operators (TMOs) for this standard. The evaluation is performed using five HDR image datasets and six TMOs for profiles A, B, and C of the proposed JPEG XT standard. The Tone Mapped image Quality Index (TMQI) and no reference image quality assessment (NR IQA) are used for measuring the LDR image quality. The peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) is used to evaluate the overall compression performance of JPEG XT profiles A, B, and C. In TMQI and NR IQA measurements, TMOs using display adaptive tone mapping and adaptive logarithmic mapping each gave good results. A TMO using adaptive logarithmic mapping gave good PSNRs.

High dynamic range (HDR) imaging is a techniques used in imaging to reproduce a greater dynamic range of luminosity than is possible with standard digital imaging. Tone mapping of HDR images for realistic display is commonly studied. However, scientific visualization of HDR image for analysis of scene luminance has much less attention. In this paper, we present and implement a simple approach for the reproduction and visualization of color information in HDR images. We attempt several simple color visualizing functions, and estimate their effectiveness through the evaluation factors with common HDR images.

Recently, mixers are being widely used in the display and semiconductor company in order to mix the chemical materials. The mixer normally consists of shaft, hub, reduction gear, and driving motor. It is one of the key design factors to evaluate the dynamic characteristics caused by the rotation. In this study, the dynamic characteristics of the high speed mixer, such as vibration, noise and thermal radiation, are verified by the experiment. Through the experiment, it is shown that the structural unbalance mass of high speed mixer is the important source of the severe vibrations and maximum temperature is mixer bowl.

In this paper, a dynamic range(DR) extension technique based on a 3-transistor active pixel sensor(APS) and dual image sampling is proposed. The feature of the proposed APS is that the APS uses two or more photodiodes with different sensitivities, such as a high-sensitivity photodiode and a low-sensitivity photodiode. Compared with previously proposed wide DR(WDR) APS, the proposed approach has several advantages, such as no-external equipments or signal processing, no-additional time-requirement for additional charge accumulation, simple operation and adjustable DR extension by controlling parasitic capacitance and sensitivity of two photodiodes. Approximately 16 dB of DR extension was evaluated from the simulation for the situation of 10 times of sensitivity difference and the same size of parasitic capacitance between those two photodiodes.

The focus of this paper is to develop a mathematical model for investigating the dynamic performance of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell. The model in this work is based on physical laws having clear significance in replicating the fuel cell system and can easily be used to set up different operational strategies. Simulation results display the transient behavior of the voltage within each single cell, and also within a number of such single cells combined into a fuel cell stack system. A linear as well as a nonlinear analysis of the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell system(PEMFC) has been discussed in order to present a complete and comprehensive view of this kind of modeling. Also, a comparison of the two kinds of analysis has been performed. Finally, the various characteristics of the fuel cell system are plotted in order to help us understand its dynamic behavior. Results indicate that there is a considerable amount of error in the modeling process if we use a linear model of the fuel cell. Thus, the nonlinearities present in the fuel cell system should be taken into account in order to obtain a better understanding of the dynamic behavior of the fuel cell system.
