We have proposed a novel line detection method based on the estimated probability density function of gradient directions of edges. By estimating peaks of the density function, we determine groups of edges that have the same gradient direction. For edges in the same groups, we detect lines that correspond to peaks of the connectivity weighted distribution of the distances from the origin. In the experiments using the Data Matrix barcode images and LCD images, the proposed method showed better performance than conventional Methods in terms of the processing speed and accuracy.

For image segmentation with intensity inhomogeneity, many region-based level set methods have been proposed. Some of them however can't get the relatively ideal segmentation results under the severe intensity inhomogeneity and weak edges, and without use of the image gradient information. To improve that, we propose a new level set method combined with local direction gradient in this paper. Firstly, based on two assumptions on intensity inhomogeneity to images, the relationships between segmentation objects and image gradients to local minimum and maximum around a pixel are presented, from which a new pixel classification method based on weight of Euclidian distance is introduced. Secondly, to implement the model, variational level set method combined with image spatial neighborhood information is used, which enhances the anti-noise capacity of the proposed gradient information based model. Thirdly, a new diffusion process with an edge indicator function is incorporated into the level set function to classify the pixels in homogeneous regions of the same segmentation object, and also to make the proposed method more insensitive to initial contours and stable numerical implementation. To verify our proposed method, different testing images including synthetic images, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and real-world images are introduced. The image segmentation results demonstrate that our method can deal with the relatively severe intensity inhomogeneity and obtain the comparatively ideal segmentation results efficiently.

A new method for optimizing the magnetic field gradient in the exciting coil of electronic anti-fouling (EAF) system is presented based on changing exciting coil size. In the proposed method, two optimization expressions are deduced based on biot-savart law. The optimization expressions, which can describe the distribution of the magnetic field gradient in the coil, are the function of coil radius and coil length. These optimization expressions can be used to obtain an accurate coil size if the magnetic field gradient on a certain point on the coil's axis of symmetry is needed to be the maximum value. Comparing with the experimental results and the computation results using Finite Element Method simulation to the magnetic field gradient on the coil's axis of symmetry, the computation results obtained by the optimization expression in this article can fit the experimental results and the Finite Element Method results very well. This new method can optimize the EAF system's anti-fouling performance based on improving the magnetic field gradient distribution in the exciting coil.

This paper proposes compression of image data using neural networks based on conjugate gradient method and dynamic tunneling system. The conjugate gradient method is applied for high speed optimization .The dynamic tunneling algorithms, which is the deterministic method with tunneling phenomenon, is applied for global optimization. Converging to the local minima by using the conjugate gradient method, the new initial point for escaping the local minima is estimated by dynamic tunneling system. The proposed method has been applied the image data compression of 12 ${\times}$12 pixels. The simulation results shows the proposed networks has better learning performance , in comparison with that using the conventional BP as learning algorithm.

Based on the PRP method, a new spectral PRP conjugate gradient method has been proposed to solve general unconstrained optimization problems which produce sufficient descent search direction at every iteration without any line search. Under the Wolfe line search, we prove the global convergence of the new method for general nonconvex functions. The numerical results show that the new method is efficient for the given test problems.

We consider the nite volume element method for elliptic problems using isoparametric bilinear elements on quadrilateral meshes. A gradient recovery method is presented by using the patch interpolation technique. Based on some superclose estimates, we prove that the recovered gradient $R({\nabla}u_h)$ possesses the superconvergence: ${\parallel}{\nabla}u-R({\nabla}u_h){\parallel}=O(h^2){\parallel}u{\parallel}_3$. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate our theoretical analysis.

층류 유동을 기준으로 형성된 압력구배기법의 적용성을 난류유동에 대하여 검증하였다. 압력구배기법은 압력 자체보다는 연속방정식을 이용하여 구한 압력의 구배를 활용하므로서 유동장의 해석에 질량보존의 물리적 법칙을 용이하게 반영할 수 있는 특징이 있다. 압력구배기법은 모든 유동변수를 한 점에 위치시키고 압력구배는 그 사이에 위치시키는 준 엇갈림 좌표계를 기준으로 형성되었다. 이러한 격자계는 프로그램하기가 용이하며 유동의 물리적 특성을 올바로 반영할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 난류유동에 대한 검증은 저 레이놀즈수 $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ 모델을 이용하여 완전히 발달한 채널유동, 후향계단유동, 원추형 디퓨저유동 등에 대하여 수행하였다. 이러한 해석결과로부터 압력구배기법은 난류유동의 해석에 적용이 가능한 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 압력구배기법은 계산시간이 다소 길게 요구되며 압력구배식의 적정 $\gamma$를 구하는 방법이 용이하지 않아 이에 대한 개선이 요구되고 있다.

This paper describes a new method of estimating the gradient of a function with perturbation and correlation. We impose a known periodic perturbation to the input variable and observe the output of the function in order to obtain much richer and more reliable information. By taking the correlation between the input perturbation and the resultant function outputs, we can determine the gradient of the function. The computation of the correlation does not require derivatives; therefore the gradient can be estimated reliably. Robust estimation of the gradient using perturbation/correlation, which is very effective when an analytical solution is not available, is described. To verify the effectiveness of perturbation/correlation based estimation, the results of gradient estimation are compared with the analytical solutions of an example function. The effects of amplitude of the perturbation and number of samplings in a period are investigated. A minimization of a function with the gradient estimation method is performed.

이 논문에서는 디지털 영상의 퍼지 시스템 표현으로부터 유도된 Edge 검출 알고리듬에 대하여 기술한다. 이 알고리듬은 Gradient을 기반으로 한 것으로 Convolution Kernel이 기존의 Roberts, Prewitt 또는 Sobel등이 제안한 Gradient Kernel과 다른 새로운 것이다. 사용한 퍼지시스템은 디지털 영상을 근사적으로 표현한 Bicubic Spline 함수를 퍼지시스템 화한것으로서 2차 도함수가 연속이기 때문에 Gradient나 Laplacian 연산이 가능하다. Grid 점들에서 이 함수의 Gradient는 두 개의 축 방향으로 각각 한개의 3$\times$3행렬과 영상과의 Covolution에 의하여 산출됨을 보였으며 이를 이용하여 검출된 Edge들은 기존의 다른 방법을 사용하여 검출된 Edge 영상보다 훨씬 선명함을 확인하였다. 이 알고리듬 적용사례 2개에 대한 기술에 포함되어 있다.
