  • Mobility and cloud platform have become the dominant paradigm to develop web services dealing with huge and diverse digital contents for scientific solution or engineering application. These two trends are technically combined into mobile cloud computing environment taking beneficial points from each. The intention of this study is to design and implement a mobile cloud application for remotely sensed image fusion for the further practical geo-based mobile services. In this implementation, the system architecture consists of two parts: mobile web client and cloud application server. Mobile web client is for user interface regarding image fusion application processing and image visualization and for mobile web service of data listing and browsing. Cloud application server works on OpenStack, open source cloud platform. In this part, three server instances are generated as web server instance, tiling server instance, and fusion server instance. With metadata browsing of the processing data, image fusion by Bayesian approach is performed using functions within Orfeo Toolbox (OTB), open source remote sensing library. In addition, similarity of fused images with respect to input image set is estimated by histogram distance metrics. This result can be used as the reference criterion for user parameter choice on Bayesian image fusion. It is thought that the implementation strategy for mobile cloud application based on full open sources provides good points for a mobile service supporting specific remote sensing functions, besides image fusion schemes, by user demands to expand remote sensing application fields.

  • In this paper, the speech parameter fusion method is studied to improve the performance of the conventional emotion recognition system. For this purpose, the combination of the parameters that show the best performance by combining the cepstrum parameters and the various pitch parameters used in the conventional emotion recognition system are selected. Various pitch parameters were generated using numerical and statistical methods using pitch of speech. Performance evaluation was performed on the emotion recognition system using Gaussian mixture model(GMM) to select the pitch parameters that showed the best performance in combination with cepstrum parameters. As a parameter selection method, sequential feature selection method was used. In the experiment to distinguish the four emotions of normal, joy, sadness and angry, fifteen of the total 56 pitch parameters were selected and showed the best recognition performance when fused with cepstrum and delta cepstrum coefficients. This is a 48.9% reduction in the error of emotion recognition system using only pitch parameters.

  • DIS(Disaster Information System) is the information system supporting prevention, readiness, response, and recovery to disasters. DIS must monitor various disaster-related informations, keep various human resources and various material resources, and response real disasters. The conventional DISs are insufficient for integrated situation analysis, real-time report and operation, and utilizing the expertise of disaster personnels. In this study, the information-fusion based DIS framework is proposed for analysing various level informations, providing integrated situation informations and response plans, and processing real-time reports and operation according to field situations. The proposed DIS framework adopts information-fusion technologies and knowledge-based BRMS(Business Rule Management System).

  • Spectrum sensing is an important functionality for cognitive users to look for spectrum holes before taking transmission in dynamic spectrum access model. Unlike previous works that assume perfect knowledge of the SNR of the signal received from the primary user, in this paper we consider a realistic case where the SNR of the primary user's signal is unknown to both fusion center and cognitive radio terminals. A Kalman filter based adaptive Takagi and Sugeno's fuzzy system is designed to make the global spectrum sensing decision based on the observed energies from cognitive users. With the capacity of adapting system parameters, the fusion center can make a global sensing decision reliably without any requirement of channel state information, prior knowledge and prior probabilities of the primary user's signal. Numerical results prove that the sensing performance of the proposed scheme outperforms the performance of the equal gain combination based scheme, and matches the performance of the optimal soft combination scheme.

  • The main object of this work is the development of an intelligent multi-sensor integration and fusion model that uses fuzzy inference system. Sensor data from different types of sensors are integrated and fused together based on the confidence which is not typically used in traditional data fusion methods. The information is fed as input to a fuzzy inference system(FIS). The output of the FIS is weights that are assigned to the different sensor data reflecting the confidence En the sensor´s behavior and performance. We interpret a type of fuzzy inference system as an interpolator of B-spline hypersurfaces. B-spline basis functions of different orders are regarded as a class of membership functions. This paper presents a model that ...

  • Recently, research has been actively conducted to overcome the limitations of high-priced single sensors and reduce costs through the convergence of low-cost multi-variable sensors. This paper estimates state variables through asynchronous Kalman filters constructed using CVXPY and uses Cvxpylayers to compare and learn state variables estimated from CVXPY with true value data to estimate filter parameters of low-cost sensors fusion.

  • Multi-layered granules were prepared by a fluidized-bed coater and uniformed granules were obtained with a size range between $950{\sim}1000{\mu}m$ in diameter. The granule system was composed of three layers, i.e. seed layer with sugar sphere bead and a water-swellable polymer, middle layer with a drug, solubilizer and polymer, and the top layer of porous membrane with a polymeric binder. The aim of this work is to find out the dependence of a drug dissolution rate on the amount of a water-soluble binder and a solubilizer in the granule system. The results showed that the higher amount of hydrophilic binder in the porous membrane, gave the bigger pore size and porosity and made faster dissolution rate and also the higher amount of solubilizer in drug layer enhanced the dissolution rate of drug.

  • Exposure fusion is a typical image fusion technique to generate a high dynamic range image by combining two or more different exposure images. In this paper, we propose block-based exposure adjustment considering unique characteristics of human visual system and improved saturation measure to get weight map. Proposed exposure adjustment artificially corrects intensity values of each input images considering human visual system, efficiently preserving details in the result image of exposure fusion. The improved saturation measure is used to make a weight map that effectively reflects the saturation region in the input images. We show the superiority of the proposed algorithm through subjective image quality, MEF-SSIM, and execution time comparison with the conventional exposure fusion algorithm.

  • Objective : The retrospective study is undertaken to report clinical results of anterior cervical interbody fusion with an intradiscal cage with an integrated plate [PCB cervical plating system]. Methods : 38 patients underwent anterior cervical interbody fusion with PCB cervical plating system and followed $6{\sim}24\;months$. The authors investigated overall surgical results; clinical outcome, fusion rate, change of interspace height & lordotic angle, and complications. Results : No complication was observed during the operation. Clinical improvement was identified in 34 cases [89.5%]. Bone fusion observed in 44 out of 49 sites [90.7%]. After operation, the interspace height increased from $5.4{\pm}1.3mm$ to $7.8{\pm}1.5mm$ and maintained $7.4{\pm}1.1mm$ and, interspace angle went up from $4.2{\pm}0.7^{\circ}$ to $4.8{\pm}1.1^{\circ}$ and maintained $4.6{\pm}$0.9^{\circ}. The loosening of screw was observed in 6 cases, one of which had reoperation because of the expulsion of the device accompanied. Conclusion : PCB cervical plating system could restore interbody height and lordosis in anterior cervical interbody fusion. But, if the insertion of the spacer is not precise, the frequencies of hardware failure are relatively high. It is considered necessary for the operator to be careful in the procedure.
