Radio spectrum is a precious resource and characterized by fixed allocation policy. However, a large portion of the allocated radio spectrum is underutilized. Conversely, the rapid development of ubiquitous wireless technologies increases the demand for radio spectrum. Cognitive Radio (CR) methodologies have been introduced as a promising approach in detecting the white spaces, allowing the unlicensed users to use the licensed spectrum thus realizing Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) in an effective manner. This paper proposes a generalized framework for DSA between the licensed (primary) and unlicensed (secondary) users based on Continuous Time Markov Chain (CTMC) model. We present a spectrum access scheme in the presence of sensing errors based on CTMC which aims to attain optimum spectrum access probabilities for the secondary users. The primary user occupancy is identified by spectrum sensing algorithms and the sensing errors are captured in the form of false alarm and mis-detection. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed spectrum access scheme in terms of the throughput attained by the secondary users, throughput optimization using optimum access probabilities, probability of interference with increasing number of secondary users. The efficacy of the algorithm is analyzed for both imperfect spectrum sensing and perfect spectrum sensing.

Satellite imagery occurs geometric and radiometric errors due to external environmental factors at the acquired time, which in turn causes false-alarm in change detection. These errors should be eliminated by geometric and radiometric corrections. In this study, we propose a methodology that automatically and simultaneously performs geometric and radiometric corrections by using the SURF (Speeded-Up Robust Feature) algorithm and the mask filter. The MPs (Matching Points), which show invariant properties between multi-temporal imagery, extracted through the SURF algorithm are used for automatic geometric correction. Using the properties of the extracted MPs, PIFs (Pseudo Invariant Features) used for relative radiometric correction are selected. Subsequently, secondary PIFs are extracted by generated mask filters around the selected PIFs. After performing automatic using the extracted MPs, we could confirm that geometric and radiometric errors are eliminated as the result of performing the relative radiometric correction using PIFs in geo-rectified images.

Change detection, which finds changes in remote sensing images of the same location captured at different times, is very important because it is used in various applications. However, registration errors, building displacement errors, and shadow errors cause false positives. To solve these problems, we propose a novle deep convolutional network called CADNet (Change Attention Dense Siamese Network). CADNet uses FPN (Feature Pyramid Network) to detect multi-scale changes, applies a Change Attention Module that attends to the changes, and uses DenseNet as a feature extractor to use feature maps that contain both low-level and high-level features for change detection. CADNet performance measured from the Precision, Recall, F1 side is 98.44%, 98.47%, 98.46% for WHU datasets and 90.72%, 91.89%, 91.30% for LEVIR-CD datasets. The results of this experiment show that CADNet can offer better performance than any other traditional change detection method.

We propose a new method for speech/non-speech classifiers based on concepts of the adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) algorithm in order to detect speech for robust speech recognition. The method uses a combination of simple base classifiers through the AdaBoost algorithm and a set of optimized speech features combined with spectral subtraction. The key benefits of this method are the simple implementation, low computational complexity and the avoidance of the over-fitting problem. We checked the validity of the method by comparing its performance with the speech/non-speech classifier used in a standard voice activity detector. For speech recognition purpose, additional performance improvements were achieved by the adoption of new features including speech band energies and MFCC-based spectral distortion. For the same false alarm rate, the method reduced 20-50% of miss errors.

We propose two error correcting algorithms for high-density optical storage systems. The first algorithm reduces the false-erasure declaration by reducing the sensitivity on random errors and increases the code rate using a simple erasure indication method. The second one exploits just the known indicator flag instead of error correcting code such as Reed-Solomon(RS) code. The proposed algorithms are superior to the error correcting algorithms of conventional systems such as DVD and BD.

In this paper, we propose an image retrieval system using the MBCM(Modified Borda Count method) in CME(Combining Multiple Experts). It combines color-, shape- and texture-based retrieval sub-systems. CME method can complementarily combine results of each retrieval system, which uses different features. There are some problems when the Borda count method in pattern recognition is applied to image retrieval. Thus, we propose a modified Borda count method to solve these problems. In the experiment, our method reduces false positive errors and produces better results than that of each retrieval module that uses only one feature.

Conventioally the decoding methods and the design of coset codes for burst synchronization and error detection have been based on the concept that slips occuring to the right or to the left with respect to a reference timing are corrected. In this paper we newly approach to the design of coset codes relying on the condition that only a single code word can exists in an observation interval, which provides an extentended view on the conventional approach. A theorem concerning the condition is presented. A combined burst synchronization and error detection system with maximum slip correction capability have been devised based on the theorem and a detection method is falsely accepted in the presented of channel errors. The false acceptance probabilities of the system are derived and its performance is analyzed through computer computation using the derived results.

In this paper, an architecture is suggested which efficiently detects intrusions in network environments. In the architecture, the Blackboardbased agent coordinates opinions of several independent agents which are performing unique functions, by resolving conflicts and reconfirming notices of intrusion. In the simulation, it was found that conventional agents judge simple resource access activities as 'intrusion' while blakcboard-based agent reserves the judgement until additional information confirms notices of independent agents. Reconfirmation process based on additional questioning will roduce positive errors.

In this paper, we propose a fingerprint verification algorithm for the embedded system based on the minutia extracted using the image quality, the minutia structure, and the Sequency and the orientation of ridges. After the pre- and the post-processing, the true minutia are selected, thus it shows high reliability in the fingerprint verification. In matching process, we consider the errors caused by shift, rotation, and pressure when acquiring the fingerprint image and reduce the matching time by applying a local matching instead of a full matching to select the reference pair. The proposed algorithm has been designed and verified in Arm920T environment and various techniques for the realtime process have been applied. Time taken from the fingerprint registration through out the matching is 0.541 second that is relevant for the realtime applications. The FRR (False Reject Rate) and FAR (False Accept Rate) show 0.079 and 0.00005 respectively.

In this paper, we propose a vision-based robust vehicle detection and inter-vehicle distance estimation algorithm for driving assistance system. We use the haar-like features of car rear-shadows, as well as the edge features for detecting of vehicles. The use of additional vehicle edge features greatly reduces the false-positive errors in the vehicle detection. And, after analyzing the conventional two inter-vehicle distance estimation methods: the location-based and the vehicle width-based, an improved inter-vehicle distance estimation algorithm which has the advantage of both method is proposed. Several experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
