In this paper, we propose a method to implement a predistorter of the $rho$-th order inverse filter structure to prevent signal distortion and spectral re-growth due to the high PAPR (peak-to-average ratio) of the OFDM signals and the non-linearity of high-power amplifiers. We model the memory-less non-linearity of the high-power amplifier with a polynomial model and utilize the inverse of the model, the $rho$-th order inverse filter, for the predistorter. Once the non-linearity is modeled with a polynomial, since we can determine the $rho$-th order inverse filter only with the coefficients of the polynomial, large memory is not required. To update the coefficients of the non-linear high-power amplifier model, we can use LMS or RLS algorithms. The convergence speed is high since the number of coefficients is small, and the computation is simple since manipulation of complex numbers is not necessary.

본 논문에서는 gradient inverse weighted filtering(GIWF) 보간법 기반의 화면 내 디인터레이싱 알고리듬을 제안한다. 소실된 화소 줄을 보간하기 위해서 먼저 선 처리 과정을 통해 정해진 마스크의 중간 지점의 예측 값을 생성한다. 이 때는 4-tap 필터를 이용을 한다. 다음으로 이웃 픽셀들 사이에서 마스크 내의 기울기 정보를 이용하여 gradient-weighted 필터의 가중치 계수를 계산한다. 그리고 마지막으로 새롭게 제시된 GIWF 보간법을 이용하여 소실된 화소 줄을 보간하게 된다. GIWF를 이용하여 영상의 디테일을 보존하고 잡음을 제거하는 효과를 얻게 되었다. 제안된 방법의 영상 시퀀스에 대한 실험 결과는 기존의 방법들에 비하여 성능의 우수함을 보여준다.

The influence of acquisition environment on music score images captured by a camera has not yet been seriously examined. All existing Optical Music Recognition (OMR) systems attempt to recognize music score images captured by a scanner under ideal conditions. Therefore, when such systems process images under the influence of distortion, different viewpoints or suboptimal illumination effects, the performance, in terms of recognition accuracy and processing time, is unacceptable for deployment in practice. In this paper, a novel, lightweight but effective approach for dealing with the issues caused by camera based music scores is proposed. Based on the staff line information, musical rules, run length code, and projection, all regions of interest are determined. Templates created from inverse filter are then used to recognize the music symbols. Therefore, all fragmentation and deformation problems, as well as missed recognition, can be overcome using the developed method. The system was evaluated on a dataset consisting of real images captured by a smartphone. The achieved recognition rate and processing time were relatively competitive with state of the art works. In addition, the system was designed to be lightweight compared with the other approaches, which mostly adopted machine learning algorithms, to allow further deployment on portable devices with limited computing resources.

Electrical impedance tomography(EIT) is a relatively new imaging modality in which the internal impedivity distribution is reconstructed based on the known sets of injected currents and measured voltages on the surface of the object. In this paper, an effective dynamic EIT imaging scheme is presented based on the projection filtering to estimate the unknown resistivity distribution. In particular, pre-integration (pre-grouping) technique is employed to stabilize the inverse algorithm. We carried out computer simulations with synthetic data to illustrate the reconstruction performance of the proposed algorithm.

This paper is concerned with the damage detection of existing 2 and 3-dimensional truss structures based on free vibration equation and extended Kalman filter. The local damage is characterized in terms of the stiffness degradation of damaged members. As the observed data, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of damaged truss structure model are adopted. Both location and stiffness of damaged parts of members in truss structures can be estimated by the proposed inverse solution procedure. The applicability and effectiveness of proposed inverse solution procedure are demonstrated through the numerical examples.

Digital filter is very important role in signal processing system. In general, input signal is determined by transfer function of the digital filter. But if input signal was exposured in various sound environment, it is difficult to verify its original source. In this paper, inverse problem in order to extract original input signal from noisy environment is considered.

Disturbance Observer(DOB) based control is considered for the purpose of the balancing performance enhancement in a single-wheel robot. Design of DOB can be folded into two parts, the inverse model of the plant and the Q-filter. The inverse model is derived from the inverted stick model and a Q-filter is designed to stabilize the inverse model. In this paper, a Q31 filter is designed and its effect is evaluated by experimental studies. The time constant provides a complimentary characteristic between the disturbance suppression and the sensor noise immunity. Therefore, suitable selection of the time-constant must be considered. Comparative experiments are conducted to investigate the control performances when three different Q filters are respectively applied in the DOB. Through the analysis of the experimental results, a time constant is designed to have a proper value in the design of DOB for balancing control of a single-wheel robot.

This paper presents a real-time motion restoration system for people who need remedial exercise of musculoskeletal based on Inverse Kinematics. A new approach is suggested to recognize a gesture based on restored human motion which is calculated the 3D positions of intermediate joints using 3D positions of body features estimated from images. For generating the 3D candidate positions of intermediate joints which cannot be extracted from images, we apply an Inverse Kinematics theory to compute the target position of intermediate joints. And we can reduce the number of candidate positions by applying the various physical constraints of body. Finally, we can generate the more accurate final position using the Kalman filter for a motion tracking and the relationship between the previous frame information and the candidate positions. The system provide motion information which are rotation angle and height in real-time, therefore the rehabilitation exercises can be performed based on the information and figured out proper exercise for individual status.

Modern super-tall buildings are more sensitive to strong winds. The evaluation of wind loads for the design of these buildings is of primary importance. A direct monitoring of wind forces acting on super-tall structures is quite difficult to be realized. Indirect measurements interpreted by inverse techniques are therefore favourable since dynamic response measurements are easier to be carried out. To this end, a Kalman filtering based inverse approach is developed in this study so as to estimate the wind loads on super-tall buildings based on limited structural responses. The optimum solution of Kalman filter gain by solving the Riccati equation is used to update the identification accuracy of external loads. The feasibility of the developed estimation method is investigated through the wind tunnel test of a typical super-tall building by using a Synchronous Multi-Pressure Scanning System. The effects of crucial factors such as the type of wind-induced response, the covariance matrix of noise, errors of structural modal parameters and levels of noise involved in the measurements on the wind load estimations are examined through detailed parametric study. The effects of the number of vibration modes on the identification quality are studied and discussed in detail. The made observations indicate that the proposed inverse approach is an effective tool for predicting the wind loads on super-tall buildings.

Look-up table based inverse halftoning from the digital color halftone image is proposed in this paper, which uses vector adaptive filter for the nonexisting patterns in the table. Halftone image is obtained from a continuous -tone image, which can be restored into continuous one from the digital binary image by way of inverse halftoning method. Look-up table based method usually processes fast and has even performances over the various halftoning. The numbers of pixels in the pattern of table and the method how to define the table elements for each R, G, B channels can effect largely for its performance. The proposed method uses 16 pixels in the table considering the diversity of the expressions from their patterns and with memory size as well. This also proposed how to combine R, G, B channels into one. Experimental results showed the better performance in the expression of colors, better color restoration and the short processing time compared with the conventional ones.
