최근 MR영상을 허혈성 뇌졸중의 초급성기에 뇌조직의 관류 이상을 조기에 진단하려는 연구들이 진행되고 있으나 아직 일반적인 진단용 소프트웨어만 있을 뿐 영상 자료를 후처리하여 뇌조직의 구조 및 기능적인 정보를 제공하는 mapping 영상을 특수 소프트웨어는 실용화되어 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 Gamma-variate 곡선 정합을 이용한 뇌관류 파라미터 영상 mapping의 알고리즘 구현에 관해 연구하였다. 관류 MR영상의 각 화소마다 측정된 시간에 따른 신호강도의 변화 곡선은 비선형적이어서 뇌관류에 관한 여러 가지 혈역학적 변수들을 보다 정확하게 계산할 수 없었다. 그래서 수렴속도가 빠르고 안정성이 높은 비선형 최적화 알고리즘인 Levenberg-Marquardt 알고리즘(LMA)을 활용하였다. 즉 시간에 따른 신호강도의 변화 곡선을 Gamma-variate 함수를 이용하여 곡선 정합한 후, CBV, MTT, CBF, TTP, BAT, MS의 여러 가지 혈역학적 변수를 LMA에 의해 계산하였다. 그 결과로 관류 MR영상으로부터 얻은 mapping 영상은 초급성 허혈성 뇌졸중에서 관류에 관한 혈역학적 변화를 평가함으로써 나중에 생길 뇌경색의 범위를 예견하는 데에 유용하였다.

The geoidal undulations are needed for determining the orthometric heights from the Global Positioning System GPS-derived ellipsoidal heights. There are several methods for geoidal undulation determination. The paper presents a method employing a simple architecture Two Layer Multiquadric-Biharmonic Artificial Neural Network (TLMB-ANN) to approximate an area of 4200 square kilometres quasigeoid surface with GPS-levelling data. Hardy’s Multiquadric-Biharmonic functions is used as the hidden layer neurons’ activation function and Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm is used to train the artificial neural network. In numerical examples five surfaces were compared: the gravimetric geometry hybrid quasigeoid, Support Vector Machine (SVM) model, Hybrid Fuzzy Neural Network (HFNN) model, Traditional Three Layer Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with tanh activation function and TLMB-ANN surface approximation. The effectiveness of TLMB-ANN surface approximation depends on the number of control points. If the number of well-distributed control points is sufficiently large, the results are similar with those obtained by gravity and geometry hybrid method. Importantly, TLMB-ANN surface approximation model possesses good extrapolation performance with high precision.

Despite the well-known mathematical model of fixed-wing aircraft, there are various studies to meet desired performances by considering the modeling errors in the extended flight envelope. This paper proposes a new adaptation mechanism of model-reference adaptive control, which applies the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm to the pitch attitude control of fixed-wing UAV. In addition, reference model in the adaptation law is set by referring to the dynamic properties of the plant model. The performance of the proposed adaptive control law is verified through simulations and flight tests.

Accurate synthesis models based on artificial neural networks (ANNs) are proposed to directly obtain the physical dimensions of an asymmetric coplanar waveguide with conductor backing and substrate overlaying (ACPWCBSO). First, the ACPWCBSO is analyzed with the conformal mapping technique (CMT) to obtain the training data. Then, a modified genetic-algorithm-Levenberg-Marquardt (GA-LM) algorithm is adopted to train ANNs. In the algorithm, the maximal relative error (MRE) is used as the fitness function of the chromosomes to guarantee that the MRE is small, while the mean square error is used as the error function in LM training to ensure that the average relative error is small. The MRE of ANNs trained with the modified GA-LM algorithm is less than 8.1%, which is smaller than those trained with the existing GA-LM algorithm and the LM algorithm (greater than 15%). Lastly, the ANN synthesis models are validated by the CMT analysis, electromagnetic simulation, and measurements.

In this paper, image reconstruction algorithm for breast cancer detection using MT(Microwave Tomography) was investigated. The breast cancer detection system under development uses 16 transmit/receive antennas. The signal waveform was a sinusoidal wave at 900 MHz. To solve the 2D inverse scattering problem, we used the 2D FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain) method for forward calculation and LMA(Levenberg-Marquardt Algorithm) for optimization. The result of the image reconstruction using the numerical phantom by MRI(Magnetic Resonance Imaging) obtained from real patient of breast cancer showed that we can detect the position of the tumor accurately.

Forecasting of water quality variation is not an easy process due to the complicated nature of various water quality factors and their interrelationships. The objective of this study is to test the applicability of neural network models to the forecasting of the water quality at Gongju station in Geum River. This is done by forecasting monthly water qualities such as DO, BOD, and TN, and comparing with those obtained by ARIMA model. The neural network models of this study use BP(Back Propagation) algorithm for training. In order to improve the performance of the training, the models are tested in three different styles ; MANN model which uses the Moment-Adaptive learning rate method, LMNN model which uses the Levenberg-Marquardt method, and MNN model which separates the hidden layers for judgement factors from the hidden layers for water quality data. the results show that the forecasted water qualities are reasonably close to the observed data. And the MNN model shows the best results among the three models tested

In this paper, we describe a fast image mosaic method for constructing a large-scale image with video image captured from cameras that are arranged in radial shape. In the first step, we adopt the phase correlation algorithm to estimate the horizontal and vertical displacement between two adjacent images. Secondly, we calculate the accurate transform matrix among those cameras with Levenberg-Marquardt method. In the last step, those images are stitched into one large scale image in real-time by applying the transform matrix to the texture mapping function of DirectX. The feature of the method is that we do not need to use special hardware devices or write machine-level programs for Implementing a real-time mosaic system since we use conventional graphic APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), DirectX for image synthesis process.

In this paper, we propose a method to calculate camera motion parameter, which is based on efficient invariant features irrelevant to the camera veiwpoint. As feature information in previous research is variant to camera viewpoint. information content is increased, therefore, extraction of accurate features is difficult. LM(Levenberg-Marquardt) method for camera extrinsic parameter converges on the goat value exactly, but it has also drawback to take long time because of minimization process by small step size. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the extracting method of invariant features to camera viewpoint and two-stage calculation method of camera motion parameter which enhances accuracy and convergent degree by using camera motion parameter by 2D homography to the initial value of LM method. The proposed method are composed of features extraction stage, matching stage and calculation stage of motion parameter. In the experiments, we compare and analyse the proposed method with existing methods by using various indoor images to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents a residence time distribution (RTD) measurement method using a radioisotope tracer and the estimation method of RTD model parameters to analyze a submerged bio-reactor. The mathematical RTD models have been investigated to represent the flow behavior and the existence of stagnant regions in the reactor. Knowing the parameters of the RTD model is important for understanding the mixing characteristics of a reactor The radioisotope tracer experiment was carried out by injecting a radioisotope tracer as a pulse into the inlet of the reactor and recording the change of its concentration at the outlet of the reactor to obtain the experimental RTD response. The parameter estimation was performed by the Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm. The proposed scheme allowed the parameter estimation of RTD model suggested by Adler-Hovorka with very low deviations. The estimation procedure is shown to lead to accurate estimation of the RTD parameters and to a good agreement between experimental and simulated response.
