  • The scope of the matrix application is so broad that it can not be limited. A typical matrix application area in computer science is image processing. Particularly, radar scanning equipment implemented on a small embedded system requires real-time matrix transposition for image processing, and since its memory size is small, a general matrix transposition algorithm can not be applied. In this case, matrix transposition must be done in disk space, such as flash disk, using a limited memory buffer. In this paper, we analyze and improve a recently published flash disk-based matrix transposition algorithm named as asymmetric sub-matrix transposition algorithm. The performance analysis shows that the asymmetric sub-matrix transposition algorithm has lower performance than the conventional sub-matrix transposition algorithm, but the improved asymmetric sub-matrix transposition algorithm is superior to the sub-matrix transposition algorithm in 13 of the 16 experimental data.

  • Through the 4th Industrial Revolution, various digital equipments are being distributed, and accordingly, the importance of data processing is increasing. As data processing has a great effect on the reliability of equipment, its importance is increasing, and various studies are being conducted. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to remove AWGN in consideration of the noise in the image. The proposed algorithm is used in the filtering process by inferring the standard deviation of the image noise. The noise is removed by dividing the filter for the high frequency component and the filter for the low frequency component compared with the standard deviation of the filtering mask. The proposed algorithm is simulated with the existing methods for evaluation and compared and analyzed by difference image, PSNR and profile. The proposed algorithm minimizes the effect of noise and preserves the important characteristics of the image and shows the performance of efficient noise removal.

  • Since the Gulf War, air power has played a key role. However, the effect of high-tech weapons, such as laser-guided bombs and electronic optical equipment, drops significantly if they do not match the weather conditions. So, aircraft that are assigned to carry laser-guided bombs must replace these munitions during bad weather conditions. But, there are no objective criteria for when weapons should be replaced. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an algorithm to predict the hit rate of laser-guided bombs using cloud image processing. In order to verify the accuracy of the algorithm, we applied the weather conditions that may affect laser-guided bombs to simulated flight equipment and executed simulated weapon release, then collected and analyzed data. Cloud images appropriate to the weather conditions were developed, and applied to the algorithm. We confirmed that the algorithm can accurately predict the hit rate of laser-guided bombs in most weather conditions.

  • In this paper, we propose a method that measures quality of digital correlator. Quality of digital correlator in field of image composition of radio astronomy have as important position for acquisition of radio wave image with high precision. Digital correlator should have wide bandwidth and high precision to study on deep space. Digital correlator, therefore, should be designed to have high speed processing and high precision. But, real time measurement of quality of digital correlator using acquisition data is difficult to compare accuracy of result because digital correlator should process a large quantity of data with high speed. Measurement method of quality, also, has intricate implementation of experiment equipment. this paper present methods that compose experiment equipment without external installation easily and verify quality of digital correlator perfectly.

  • Image signal related technology has been developing via various display equipment development and popularization of contents. However, errors occur in these image contents due to addition of excess noise from several cause during the process of general image signal data processing, transmission and storage. In terms of noise added to the image content, there are various types in accordance with cause of occurrence and form, and it is typically impulse noise, gaussian noise and complex noise which is composed of two types of overlapping noise. In this paper, complex algorithm is suggested in order to lessen the effect of mixed noise added to the image content by putting it through noise judgement process and categorizing each into impulse and gaussian noise and processing them separately. And in order to demonstrate the superiority of the suggested algorithm, PSIN(peak signal to noise ratio) was used as the standard of judgement.

  • Noise which is unwanted sound is a serious pollutant that can affect human health, as well as the working and living environment if exposed to humans. However, current noise management on the construction project is generally conducted after the noise exceeds the regulation standard, which increases the conflicts with inhabitants near the construction site and threats to the safety and productivity of construction workers. To overcome the limitations of the current noise management methods, the activities of construction equipment which is the main source of construction noise need to be managed throughout the construction period in real-time. Therefore, this paper proposed a framework for automatically detecting noise sources in construction sites in real-time based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) according to the following four steps: (i) Step 1: Definition of the noise sources; (ii) Step 2: Data preparation; (iii) Step 3: Noise source classification using the audio CNN; and (iv) Step 4: Noise source detection using the visual CNN. The short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and temporal image processing are used to contain temporal features of the audio and visual data. In addition, the AlexNet and You Only Look Once v3 (YOLOv3) algorithms have been adopted to classify and detect the noise sources in real-time. As a result, the proposed framework is expected to immediately find construction activities as current noise sources on the video of the construction site. The proposed framework could be helpful for environmental construction managers to efficiently identify and control the noise by automatically detecting the noise sources among many activities carried out by various types of construction equipment. Thereby, not only conflicts between inhabitants and construction companies caused by construction noise can be prevented, but also the noise-related health risks and productivity degradation for construction workers and inhabitants near the construction site can be minimized.

  • Recently, due to the influence of the 4th industrial revolution and the development of communication media, various digital video equipment are being used in industrial fields. Image data is easily damaged by noise in the process of acquiring and transmitting and receiving from the camera and sensor, and since the damaged image has a great effect on the processing of the system, noise removal is essential. In this paper, a weight filter algorithm using a weight graph is proposed to restoration images damaged by high-density impulse noise. The proposed algorithm obtains a weight graph using pixel values inside the filtering mask of the image, and restores the image by applying the final weight to the filtering mask. Simulation was conducted to analyze the noise removal performance of the proposed algorithm, and the magnified image and PSNR were used to compare with the existing method. The resulting image of the proposed algorithm showed excellent performance by removing high-density impulse noise.
