  • When GPS signals are not available, a relative localization can be alternatively used to represent the topological relationship between mobile nodes. A relative location map of a network can be constructed by using the distance information between all the pairs of nodes in the network. If a network is large, a number of small local maps are individually constructed and are merged to obtain the whole map. However, this approach may result in a high computation and communication overhead. In this paper, we propose a reference-node selection scheme for relative localization map construction, which chooses a subset of nodes as a reference node that is supposed to construct local maps. The scheme is a greedy algorithm that iteratively chooses nodes with high degree as a reference node until the chosen local maps are successfully merged with a sufficient number of common nodes between nearby local maps. The simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme achieves higher localization accuracy with a reduced computational overhead.

  • Motion synthesis using physics-based controllers can generate a character animation that interacts naturally with the given environment and other characters. Recently, various methods using deep neural networks have improved the quality of motions generated by physics-based controllers. In this paper, we present a control policy learned by deep reinforcement learning (DRL) that enables Luxo, the mascot character of Pixar animation studio, to run towards a random goal location while imitating a reference motion and maintaining its balance. Instead of directly training our DRL network to make Luxo reach a goal location, we use a reference motion that is generated to keep Luxo animation's jumping style. The reference motion is generated by linearly interpolating predetermined poses, which are defined with Luxo character's each joint angle. By applying our method, we could confirm a better Luxo policy compared to the one without any reference motions.

  • In Object-Oriented Paradigm, various cohesion measurements have been studied taking into account reference relation among components - like attributes and methods - that belong to a class. In addition, a number of methods have taken into research utilizing manual analysis, that is performed by developer's intuition and experience, and automatic analysis in refactoring field. The verification of objective criteria is demanded in order to process automatic refactoring. In this paper, we propose a method exploiting logistic regression and neural network for analysis of the relationship between six factors considering reference relation and method location among classes. Experimental results demonstrate that the logistic regression predicts the results up to 97% and the neural network predicts the outcomes up to 90%. Hence, we conclude that the logistic regression based method is more effective to predict the method location. Moreover, more than 90% of experimental results from both methods show that the six factors used in Move Method in refactoring are suitable to be used as an objective criteria.

  • The railway system is an interface industry that can be safely operated by organically operating the lines, vehicles, controls, etc. Various data are generated in the operation and maintenance activities of the railway system. These data are utilized in cooperation with safety and maintenance activities in each field, but amount of data is insufficient for data analysis of safety management due to relevant data being produced without any synchronous criteria such as time or space. In particular, reference data such as location and time of failure data for each field are set to different criteria according to the work characteristics in each field. So, it is not easy to analyze data integrally based on location and time. Therefore, mapping of reference data can be required for integrated analysis of data defined in different formats. By selecting data mapping tools and verifying the results of safety relevant data with the same criteria, the purpose of this paper is to enable integrated analysis of railway safety management data occurring in different fields based on location and time.

  • Location-based services provide customized information or services according to the user's location. The existing localization schemes for outdoor environment are not applicable to the indoor localization system which requires higher accuracy of location estimation than that of the outdoor localization system. In this paper, we employ the received signal strength(RSS) to approximate the distance between a moving target and a reference point and use the triangulation method to estimate the location of the moving target for the indoor localization system in IEEE 802.15.4 wireless PAN(personal area network). For the indoor localization system, we propose a scheme which selects the best reference points to enhance the localization accuracy and adaptively reflects the changes in propagation environments of a moving target to the distance approximation. Through the implementation of the localization system, we have verified the performance of the proposed scheme in terms of the estimation accuracy.

  • Purpose: The purpose is to evaluate the accuracy of correcting the targeting error through the Target Location System (TLS) for the location change error of the reference point which arises from the movement or motion of patient during the treatment using the CyberKnife. Materials and Methods: In this test, Gafchromic MD-55 film was inserted into the head and neck phantom to analyze the accuracy of the targeting, and then the 6 MV X-ray of CyberKnife (CyberKnife Robotic Radiosurgery System G4, Accuray, US) was irradiated. End to End (E2E) program was used to analyze the accuracy of targeting, which is provided by Accuray Corporation. To compute the error of the targeting, the test was carried out with the films that were irradiated 12 times by maintaining the distance within the rage of $0{\pm}0.2\;mm$ toward x, y, z from the reference point and maintaining the angle within the rage of $0{\pm}0.2^{\circ}$ toward roll, pitch, yaw, and then with the films which were irradiated 6 times by applying intentional movement. And the correlation in the average value of the reference film and the test film were analyzed through independent samples t-test. In addition, the consistency of dose distribution through gamma-index method (dose difference: 3%) was quantified, compared, and analyzed by varying the distance to agreement (DTA) to 1 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, respectively. Results: E2E test result indicated that the average error of the reference film was 0.405 mm and the standard deviation was 0.069 mm. The average error of the test film was 0.413 mm with the standard deviation of 0.121 mm. The result of independent sampling t-test for both averages showed that the significant probability was P=0.836 (confidence level: 95%). Besides, by comparing the consistency of dose distribution of DTA through 1 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, it was found that the average dose distribution of axial film was 95.04%, 97.56%, 98.13%, respectively in 3,314 locations of the reference film, consistent with the average dose distribution of sagittal film that was 95.47%, 97.68%, 98.47%, respectively. By comparing with the test film, it was found that the average dose distribution of axial film was 96.38%, 97.57%, 98.04%, respectively, at 3,323 locations, consistent with the average dose distribution of sagittal film which was 95.50%, 97.87%, 98.36%, respectively. Conclusion: Robotic CyberKnife traces and complements in real time the error in the location change of the reference point caused by the motion or movement of patient during the treatment and provides the accuracy with the consistency of over 95% dose distribution and the targeting error below 1 mm.

  • A fast and accurate building-level visual place recognition method built on an image-retrieval scheme using street-view images is proposed. Reference images generated from street-view images usually depict multiple buildings and confusing regions, such as roads, sky, and vehicles, which degrades retrieval accuracy and causes matching ambiguity. The proposed practical database refinement method uses informative reference image and keypoint selection. For database refinement, the method uses a spatial layout of the buildings in the reference image, specifically a building-identification mask image, which is obtained from a prebuilt three-dimensional model of the site. A global-positioning-system-aware retrieval structure is incorporated in it. To evaluate the method, we constructed a dataset over an area of $0.26km^2$. It was comprised of 38,700 reference images and corresponding building-identification mask images. The proposed method removed 25% of the database images using informative reference image selection. It achieved 85.6% recall of the top five candidates in 1.25 s of full processing. The method thus achieved high accuracy at a low computational complexity.

  • Since the LBP algorithm has the characteristic of local texture expression, it is possible to obtain completely different results depending on the extraction location and the size of the reference image and the sample image. In order to solve these shortcomings, in this paper, we first investigate the basic characteristics of LBP, make the size of the reference image (100×100) in order to include most of the characteristics in the image, and select a sample image (40×40) extracted from an arbitrary point. After finding the matching position in the LBP of the reference image by using the correlation test between the LBP of the reference image and the LBP of the sample image, a chi analysis method is used to find the reference image that most closely matches the sample image.

  • This study is to confirm the deformation of blade when the location of stacking is moving. Also, it desire to determine the most stable location of stacking from the analysis. In the previous study, it is Known that moving the location of stacking is not influence to the aerodynamic performance. In this study SolidWorks premium 2010 SP4 is used for structure analysis. In reference blade and other 3 model analysis, the two mesh type is used, one is standard mesh type in SolidWorks, the other is curvature-based mesh type. The result of curvature-based mesh type is more stable than one of the standard mesh type regardless of mesh size, the number of mesh. The deformation of blade tip is the smallest, when the location of stacking is identical to the center of gravity of the blade section profile. So, if possible is design, this study recommends that the location of stacking is identical to the center of gravity the blade.
