In this paper, we propose a fast fractal coding method based on LMSE analysis and subblock feature. In the proposed method, scaling paarameter is calculated and whether search for each domain block should be done or not is determined based on the LMSE analysis of fractal approximation, and isometry parameter is chosen based on subblock feature. To investigate the efficiency of the proposed method, we compared it with Jacquin's method on image quality and encoding time. Experimental results show the proposed method yields nearly the same performance as that of Jacquin method in PSNR, and its encoding time is reduced by about 1/7 times.

This Paper proposes a novel fractal image method for image communication to shorten time to take on fractal encoding by using limited search area method and scaling method First, the original image is contracted respectively by half and by quarter with the scaling method. And then, the corresponding domain block of the quarter-sized image which is most similar with one range block of the half-sized image is searched within the limited area in order to reduce the encoding time extremely As the result of the evaluation, the proposed algorithm provided much shorter encoding time and better compression ratio with a little degradation of the decoded image quality than Jacquin's method.

To get the realistic deformation of fractal objects in computer games, fractal-like deformation property should be added to ordinary continuous deformations. We, here, suggest a fractal-like vector fields producing method using the code and its modification, and some examples are given.

For a method improving fractal image segmentation which is a new application of fractal image coding, YST scheme have proposed an image segmentation scheme using labeling based on periodic points of pixel transformation and error-correction of labels by iterating fractal transformation. The scheme generates the high quality segmentation, however, it has the redundancy in the process of labeling and correction of labels. To solve this problem, we propose a labeling algorithm based on orbit of pixel transformation and restricted condition on iterating process of fractal transformation.

We present the fractal properties of the magnetic domain walls in $(5-{\AA}\;Co_{90}Fe_{10}/10-{\AA}\;Pt)_n$ multilayer films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy for the number of repeats n (1 to 5). In these films, the magnetization reversed due to the domain wall propagation throughout the films with rare nucleations. As n increased, it was observed that the jaggedness of the domain walls increased noticeably, which is possibly due to the accumulation of irregularities at the layer interfaces. The jaggedness of the domain walls was analyzed in terms of the fractal dimension by use of the ruler method, and it was revealed that the fractal dimension significantly changed from $1.0{\pm}0.002$ to $1.3{\pm}0.05$ as n increased from 1 to 5.

This study proposes analysis and evaluation method of time series ultrasonic signal using attractor analysis for fusion joint part of polyethylene piping. Quantitatively characteristics of fusion joint part is analysed features extracted from time series. Trajectory changes in the attractor indicated a substantial difference in fractal characteristics. These differences in characteristics of fusion joint part enables the evaluation of unique characteristics of fusion joint part. In quantitative fractal feature extraction, feature values of 4.291 in the case of debonding and 3.694 in the case of bonding were proposed on the basis of fractal dimensions. In quantitative quadrant feature extraction, 1,306 point in the case of bonding(one quadrant) and 1,209 point(one quadrant) in the case of debonding were proposed on the basis of fractal dimensions. Proposed attractor feature extraction can be used for integrity evaluation of polyethylene piping material which is in case of bonding or debonding.

Automatic detection system to detect acoustic emission pulse and fractal dimension were developed, to observe tree deterioration phenomena in LDPE. The purpose of our work are to use acoustic emission system and fractal dimension and to investigate the treeing phenomena in polymeric insulation under applied AC voltage 11[kV] with an artificial needle-shaped void(1.5[mm]) using the above system. We analyzed and phase angle-acoustic emission pulse amplitude-deterioration time ($\Phi$-AEA-t) pattern and phase angle-acoustic emission pulse number-deterioration time($\Phi$-AEN-t) pattern using statistical operators such as skewness, fractal dimension. In this paper show that the correlation of $\Phi$-AEA-t, $\Phi$-AEN-t, fractal dimension using regression analysis by the method of least squares can be used to predict the breakdown just before the breakdown occurs.

In this paper, the scattered field from a perfectly conducting fractal surface by Finite-Difference Time-Domain(FDTD) method was computed. A one-dimensional fractal surface was generated by using the fractional Brownian motion model. Back scattering coefficients are calculated with different values of the spectral parameter(S0), fractal dimension(D) which determine characteristics of the fractal surface. The number of surface realization for the computed field, the point number, and the width of surface realization are set to be 80, 1024, 16λ, respectively. In order to verify the computed results these results are compared with those of small perturbation methods, which show good agreement between them.

In this paper, we introduce a very fast and efficient fractal coding scheme by using the spatial prediction on ultra-small atomic range blocks. This new approach drastically speeds up the encoding while improving the fidelity and the compression ratio. The affine transformation coefficients between adjacent range blocks induced by this method often have good correlations thereby the compression ratios can further be improved. The proposed method leads to improved rate-distortion performance compared to previously reported pure fractals, and it is faster than other state-of-the-art fractal coding methods.

This study investigated the floc structure and removal of turbidity and organic matter by alum coagulation. Results of this study indicated that sweep floc and charge neutralization area were shifted to more acidic region than that in the Amirtharajah's diagram. This was caused by organic matter present in the raw water. Removal regions of turbidity and organic matter were generally overlapped. However, organic matters was removed better at lower pH than turbidity. Floc structure was characterized by measuring fractal dimension and volume diameter using AIA and SALLS. SALLS method was found to be more reliable than AIA method. Floes in sweep floc region had larger size and fractal dimension than flocs in charge neutralization region. As pollutant removal increased, larger fractal dimension and size of floc were measured.
