In this paper, we present a method to customize the ground color in outdoor sports video to provide TV viewers with a better viewing experience or subjective satisfaction. This issue, related to content personalization, is becoming critical with the advent of mobile TV and interactive TV. In outdoor sports video, such as soccer video, it is sometimes observed that the ground color is not satisfactory to viewers. In this work, the proposed algorithm is focused on customizing the ground color to deliver a better viewing experience for viewers. The algorithm comprises three modules: ground detection, shot classification, and ground color customization. We customize the ground color by considering the difference between ground colors from both input video and the target ground patch. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme offers useful tools to provide a more comfortable viewing experience and that it is amenable to real-time performance, even in a software-based implementation.

In general, a classification process between ground data and non-ground data, which include building objects, is required prior to producing a DEM for a certain surface reconstruction from LiDAR data in which the DEM can be produced from the ground data, and certain objects like buildings can be reconstructed using non-ground data. Thus, an exact classification between ground and non-ground data from LiDAR data is the most important factor in the ground reconstruction process using LiDAR data. In particular, building objects can be largely used as digital maps, orthophotos, and urban planning regarding the object in the ground and become an essential to providing three dimensional information for certain urban areas. In this study, an entropy theory, which has been used as a standard of disorder or uncertainty for data used in the information theory, is used to apply a more objective and generalized method in the recognition and segmentation of buildings from raw LiDAR data. In particular, a method that directly uses the raw LiDAR data, which is a type of point shape vector data, without any changes, to a type of normal lattices was proposed, and the existing algorithm that segments LiDAR data into ground and non-ground data as a binarization manner was improved. In addition, this study proposes a generalized building extraction method that excludes precedent information for buildings and topographies and subsidiary materials, which have different data sources.

The split ground structure for microstrip structure can be used to protect analog/RF signal from SSN interference of digital circuits on PCB with common ground. However, the split ground structure gives rise to undesired emissions that may interfere with nearby circuitry due to the ground discontinuity. In this paper, we have proposed the modified structure, Dumbbell shaped SGS and the method to reduce the radiation by adding the lumped resistor on the proposed Dumbbell shaped SGS.

The engineering characteristics and the reinforcement effect of the elephant foot method were discussed with parametric study. The elephant foot method is adopted to support the loads transferred from tunnel crown and improve bearing capacity of elephant foot in poor ground condition. The evaluation of reinforcement effect, which has the mechanical relationship between ground condition, footing size and reinforcement system, was carried out through the previous research and numerical analysis. In addition, the simple design chart was proposed to estimate the applicability of the elephant foot reinforcement method. It will be practical for the engineer to determine the optimum reinforcement method for safe tunnelling in soft ground condition.

In this study, we proposed a new approach to segment ground and nonground points gained from a 3D laser range sensor. The primary aim of this research was to provide a fast and effective method for ground segmentation. In each frame, we divide the point cloud into small groups. All threshold points and start-ground points in each group are then analyzed. To determine threshold points we depend on three features: gradient, lost threshold points, and abnormalities in the distance between the sensor and a particular threshold point. After a threshold point is determined, a start-ground point is then identified by considering the height difference between two consecutive points. All points from a start-ground point to the next threshold point are ground points. Other points are nonground. This process is then repeated until all points are labelled.

확한 토공량 설계를 위해서는 충분한 량의 지반조사 자료가 필요하나 비용적인 문제로 인하여 제한적인 지반조사가 수행되고 있다. 정확한 토공량 예측을 위해서 지반의 층상정보를 추정하는 것은 중요한 사항이며, 이러한 제한적인 지반조사 데이터로부터 정확한 토공량 예측을 위해서는 지구통계학적(geo-statistical) 분석방법으로 지반 층상정보를 예측할 수 있다. 또한, 기시추된 지반 층상정보를 활용하여 기계학습을 통하여 모델을 학습하여 미시추된 지반 층상정보를 예측할 수도 있는데, 본 논문에서는 인공신경망을 통하여 미시추된 지반 층상정보를 예측하고 기존의 정규 크리깅 기법과 성능을 비교한다. 이를 위하여, 84공의 지반 층상정보를 활용한다. 84공의 지반 층상정보의 데이터셋 중에서 75공을 학습 데이터셋으로 활용하였고, 나머지 9공을 검증 데이터셋으로 활용하였다. 검증 데이터셋의 실측된 지반 층상정보와 정규 크리깅 기법과 인공신경망으로 예측된 지반 층상정보를 비교 분석한다.

In this paper a four-pole elliptic function bandpass filter is designed with two ground slots. A research of microstrip bandpass filters (BPF) using defected ground structures (DGS) is presented. DGS technique allows designs of tight couplings without the necessity of using very narrow coupling gaps. The simulator Sonnet is used to design the resonator and to calculate the coupling coefficient of the basic coupling structure. Compared to similar microstrip filters without defected ground structure, the simulated performances of these novel structures indicate some technological advantages.

In this study we propose a novel approach to segment a terrain in two parts: ground and none-ground. The terrain is gained by a multi-channel 3D laser range sensor. We process each vertical line in each frame data. The vertical line is bounded by the sensor's position and a point in the largest circle of the frame. We consider each pair of two consecutive points in each line to find begin-ground and end-ground points. All points placed between a begin-ground point and an end-ground point are ground ones. The other points are none-ground. After examining all vertical lines in the frame, we obtain the terrain segmentation result.

Environment perception and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction tasks are used to provide unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) with driving awareness interfaces. The speed of obstacle segmentation and surrounding terrain reconstruction crucially influences decision making in UGVs. To increase the processing speed of environment information analysis, we develop a CPU-GPU hybrid system of automatic environment perception and 3D terrain reconstruction based on the integration of multiple sensors. The system consists of three functional modules, namely, multi-sensor data collection and pre-processing, environment perception, and 3D reconstruction. To integrate individual datasets collected from different sensors, the pre-processing function registers the sensed LiDAR (light detection and ranging) point clouds, video sequences, and motion information into a global terrain model after filtering redundant and noise data according to the redundancy removal principle. In the environment perception module, the registered discrete points are clustered into ground surface and individual objects by using a ground segmentation method and a connected component labeling algorithm. The estimated ground surface and non-ground objects indicate the terrain to be traversed and obstacles in the environment, thus creating driving awareness. The 3D reconstruction module calibrates the projection matrix between the mounted LiDAR and cameras to map the local point clouds onto the captured video images. Texture meshes and color particle models are used to reconstruct the ground surface and objects of the 3D terrain model, respectively. To accelerate the proposed system, we apply the GPU parallel computation method to implement the applied computer graphics and image processing algorithms in parallel.
