  • A depth adjustment method for visual fatigue reduction for depth-image-based rendering (DIBR) system is proposed. One important aspect of the method is that no calibration parameters are needed for adjustment. By analyzing 3D image warping, the perceived depth is expressed as a function of three adjustable parameters: virtual view number, scale factor and depth value of zero parallax setting (ZPS) plane. Adjusting these three parameters according to the proposed parameter modification algorithm when performing 3D image warping can effectively change the perceived depth of stereo pairs generated in DIBR system. As the depth adjustment is performed in simple 3D image warping equations, the proposed method is facilitative for hardware implementation. Experimental results show that the proposed depth adjustment method provides an improvement in visual comfort of stereo pairs as well as generating comfortable stereoscopic images with different perceived depths that people desire.

  • The digital photogrammetric products have been increasingly used as an accurate foundation for representing information associated with infrastructure management. The technological advances in merging raster and vector data within the framework of GIS have allowed for the inclusion of DTMs and digital orthophotos with vector data and its associated attributes. This study addresses not only generating DEMs and digital orthophotos but producing three dimensional building models from aerial photos of an urban area by employing the digital photogrammetric technology. DEMs and digital orthophotos were automatically generated through the process of orientations, image matching and so on, and then the practical problems, which must be solved especially in applying to urban areas, were considered. The accuracy of produced digital orthophotos was derived by using check points. Also three dimensional visualization imagery, which is useful in the landform analysis, and 3D building models were produced. Digital photogrammetric products would be used widely not only as GIS framework data layers by using the GIS link function which links attribute and image information in the database for applying to infrastructure management and but as geospatial data for especially 3D GIS in urban areas.

  • There are many researches showing that when a process change has occurred, variable sampling intervals (VSI) control chart is better than the fixed sampling interval (FSI) control chart in terms of reducing the required time to signal. When the process engineers use VSI control procedure, frequent switching between different sampling intervals can be a complicating factor. However, average number of samples to signal (ANSS), which is the amount of required samples to signal, and average time to signal (ATS) do not provide any control statistics about switching performances of VSI charts. In this study, we evaluate numerical switching performances of multivariate VSI EWMA chart including average number of switches to signal (ANSW) and average switching rate (ASWR). In addition, numerical study has been carried out to examine how to improve the performance of considered chart with accumulate-combine approach under several different smoothing constant and sample size. In conclusion, process engineers, who want to manage the correlation coefficients of related quality variables, are recommended to make sample size as large and smoothing constant as small as possible under permission of process conditions.

  • The minimum energy broadcast problem is for all deployed nodes to minimize a total transmission energy for performing a broadcast operation in wireless networks. In this paper, we propose a Tabu search algorithm to solve efficiently the minimum energy broadcast problem on the basis of meta-heuristic approach in wireless sensor networks. In order to make a search more efficient, we propose a novel neighborhood generating method and a repair function of the proposed algorithm. We compare the performance of the proposed algorithm with other existing algorithms through some experiments in terms of the total transmission energy of nodes and algorithm computation time. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is efficient for the minimum energy broadcast problem in wireless sensor networks.

  • DD(Decision Diagrams) is an efficient operational data structure for an optimal expression of boolean functions. In a graph-based synthesis using DD, the goal of optimization decreases representation space for boolean functions. This paper represents boolean functions using OPKFDD(Ordered Pseudo-Kronecker Functional Decision Diagrams) for a graph-based synthesis and is based on the number of nodes as the criterion of DD size. For a property of OPKFDD that is able to select one of different decomposition types for each node, OPKFDD is variable in its size by the decomposition types selection of each node and input variable order. This paper proposes a method for generating OPKFDD efficiently from the current BDD(Binary Decision Diagram) Data structure and an algorithm for minimizing one. In the multiple output functions, the relations of each function affect the number of nodes of OPKFDD. Therefore this paper proposes a method to decide the input variable order considering the above cases. Experimental results of comparing with the current representation methods and the reordering methods for deciding input variable order are shown.

  • In this study, a space-time transmission scheme is proposed to tackle the limitations of channel estimation with orthogonal pilot information in colocated multiple-input multiple-output systems with several transmitting and receiving antennas. Channel information is obtained using orthogonal pilots. Channel estimation introduces pilot heads required to estimate a channel. This leads to bandwidth insufficiency. As a result, trade-offs exist between the number of pilots required to estimate a channel versus spectral efficiency. The detection of data symbols is performed using the maximum likelihood decoding method as it provides a consistent approach to parameter estimation problems. The moment-generating function of the instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio is used to drive an approximate expression of the symbol error rate for the proposed scheme. Furthermore, the order of diversity is less by one than the number of receiver antennas used in the proposed scheme. The effect of the length of a pilot sequence on the proposed scheme's performance is also investigated.

  • In the Internet-of-Things (IoT) or blockchain-based network systems, secure keys may be stored in individual devices; thus, individual devices should protect data by performing secure operations on the data transmitted and received over networks. Typically, secure functions, such as a physical unclonable function (PUF) and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), are useful for generating safe keys and distributing data in a network. However, to provide these functions in embedded devices for IoT or blockchain systems, proper inspection is required for designing and implementing embedded system-on-chip (SoC) modules through overhead and performance analysis. In this paper, a virtual platform (SoC VP) was developed that includes a secure key generation module with a PUF and FHE. The SoC VP platform was implemented using SystemC, which enables the execution and verification of various aspects of the secure key generation module at the electronic system level and analyzes the system-level execution time, memory footprint, and performance, such as randomness and uniqueness. We experimentally verified the secure key generation module, and estimated the execution of the PUF key and FHE encryption based on the unit time of each module.

  • In this study, we propose a new method for generating candidate solutions based on the Cauchy probability distribution in order to complement the shortcoming of the solutions generated by the normal distribution. The Cauchy probability distribution has infinite mean and variance, and it has rather large probability in the tail region relative to the normal distribution. Thus, the Cauchy distribution can yield higher probabilities of generating candidate solutions of large-varied variables, which in turn has an advantage of searching wider area of variable space. In order to compare and analyze the performance of the proposed method against the conventional method, we carried out an experiment using benchmarking problems of real valued function. From the result of the experiment, we found that the proposed method based on the Cauchy distribution outperformed the conventional one for all benchmarking problems, and verified its superiority by the statistical hypothesis test.

  • The QPP interleaver has been gaining attention since it provides contention-free interleaving functionality for high speed parallel turbo decoders. In this paper we first show that the quadratic term $f_2x^2%K$ of $f(x)=(f_1x+f_2x^2)%K$, the address generating function, is periodic. We then introduce a low-power address generator which utilizes this periodic characteristic. This generator follows the conventional method to generate the interleaving addresses and also to save the quadratic term values during the first half of the first period. The saved values are then reused for generating further interleaved addresses, resulting in reduced number of logical operations. Power consumption is reduced by 27.38% in the design with fixed-K and 5.54% in the design with unfixed-K on average for various values of K, when compared with the traditional designs.

  • Lots of applications that represent and utilize geographic information on the Web have emerged on the Web. In addition, personal electronic devices equipped with GPS function, which can record personal location information in real time, are being increasingly adopted by people. Such geographic information enables Internet business companies to provide users more useful services based on the location information. Most successful Internet business companies have adopted and utilized Web 2.0 technologies, which promote users' participation and emphasize openness and information sharing. Especially, using open APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) can reduce the costs of a program development. In this study, we design and develop a banner advertisement system based on geographic information using open APIs. We propose a business model using the advertisement system, and a prototype system has been illustrated in order to explain the proposed business model. Finally, we summarize the benefits of our system by describing factors generating values of the proposed business model. Hopefully, main ideas proposed in this paper can be applied to real industry sectors that use geographic information widely such as travel, real estate and so on.
