Many mobile sensing frameworks have been developed to help researcher doing their mobile sensing research. However, energy consumption is still an issue in the mobile sensing research, and the existing frameworks do not provide enough solution for solving the issue. We have surveyed several mobile sensing frameworks and carefully chose one framework to improve. We have designed an adaptive sampling module for a mobile sensing framework to help solve the energy consumption issue. However, in this study, we limit our design to an adaptive sampling module for the location and motion sensors. In our adaptive sampling module, we utilize the significant motion sensor to help the adaptive sampling. We experimented with two sampling strategies that utilized the significant motion sensor to achieve low-power consumption during the continuous sampling. The first strategy is to utilize the sensor naively only while the second one is to add the duty cycle to the naive approach. We show that both strategies achieve low energy consumption, but the one that is combined with the duty cycle achieves better result.

In this paper, an adaptive motion vector smoothing scheme based on weighted vector median filtering is proposed in order to eliminate the motion outliers more effectively for improving the quality of side information in frame-based distributed video coding. We use a simple motion vector outlier reliability measure for each block in a motion compensated interpolated frame and apply weighted vector median filtering only to the blocks with unreliable motion vectors. Simulation results show that the proposed adaptive motion vector smoothing algorithm improves the quality of the side information significantly while maintaining low complexity at the encoder in frame-based distributed video coding.

In this paper an adaptive moving method of the search region tracking the motion is proposed. The search region in BMA is determined by the capability of hardware implementation and the degree of motion. But once determined nothing can be changed during coding procedure. In this paper we predict the level of motion of the current block using motion vectors of previous frames without overhead information and change the location of the search region according to the level of the motion predicted. In short the proposed method can be archieved the dsirable effect such that the size of search region gets large when the motion is large. Results of experiments show that prediction efficiency has been improved by using adaptive moving method resulting in reduced prediction error in the blocks with large motion.

동영상 부호화에서 움직임 추정은 참조 프레임으로부터 현재 프레임의 화소를 추정하는 처리로서 예측 화질과 부호화 시간에 직접적인 영향을 미친다. 본 논문은 고속 움직임 추정을 위해 시공간 움직임 활동도를 이용한 적응형 계층 육각 탐색에 관한 것이다. 제안된 방법은 현재의 매크로블록에 시공간적으로 인접한 매크로블록들의 움직임 벡터를 이용하여 시공간 움직임 활동도를 정의한다. 이렇게 정의한 시공간 움직임 활동도가 낮을 경우 기존의 적응형 육각 탐색을 수행하고, 그렇지 않을 경우, 웨이블렛 변환의 다단계 저주파 부영상들로 구성된 다단계 계층 공간상에서 계층 육각 탐색을 수행한다. 본 논문에서는 서로 다른 움직임 특성을 갖는 복수의 동영상 시퀀스들에 대한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과를 토대로 예측 화질과 연산 시간 측면에서 제안된 방법의 성능을 분석.평가하였다. 실험 결과는 제안된 방법이 작은 움직임 탐색과 큰 움직임 탐색에 모두 적합함을 보여주고 있다. 제안된 방법은 고속 움직임 탐색이 가능한 적응형 육각 탐색의 장점을 유지하면서도 시공간 움직임 활동도가 높은 비디오 시퀀스에서 야기되는 국부 최소 문제를 적응적으로 경감할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we propose new adaptive search range motion estimation methods where the search ranges are constrained by the probabilities of motion vector differences and a search point sampling technique is applied to the constrained search ranges. Our new methods are based on our previous work, in which the search ranges were analytically determined by the probabilities. Since the proposed adaptive search range motion estimation methods effectively restrict the search ranges instead of search point sampling patterns, they provide a very flexible and hardware-friendly approach in motion estimation. The proposed methods were evaluated and tested with JM16.2 of the H.264/AVC video coding standard. Experiment results exhibit that with negligible degradation in PSNR, the proposed methods considerably reduce the computational complexity in comparison with the conventional methods. In particular, the combined method provides performance similar to that of the hybrid unsymmetrical-cross multi-hexagon-grid search method and outstanding merits in hardware implementation.

This paper presents a new motion compensated error coding method suitable for region based image coding system. Compared with block based conding, the region based coding improves subjective quality as it estimates and compensates 2D (or 3D) translantional, rotational, and scaling motion for each regions. although the region based coding has this advantage, its merit is reduced as bock-DCT (2D-DCT) is used to encode motion-compensated error. To overcome this problem, a new region adaptive motion compensated error coding technique which improver subjective and objective quality in the region boundary is proposed in this paper. In the proposed method, regions with large error are estimated using contour of the regions and contrast between the regions. The regions estiated as those with large error are coded by arbitrarily shaped image segment coding method. The mask information of the coded regions is not transmitted because it is estimated as the same algorithm in the encoder and the decoder. The proposed region adaptive motion conpensated error coding method improves about 0.5dB when it is compared with conventional block based method.

The adaptive control and the robust control have been considered as the most influential methods for robotic motion control. The purpose of this paper is to compare control performance between these two strategies in unconstrained motion control of robot manipulator. In order to compare control performance properly, intensive experiments are required and only then can conclusions be drawn on the relative merit and demerit of the controllers. Firstly, the control algorithms for unconstrained motion control are summarized. In adaptive control, the controllers that have been proposed so far are classified according to the signals used for the computed control input. It enables rather easier to compare controller is examined to demonstrate control performance of robust controllers. Finally, the above two approaches, the adaptive and the robust are compared from the view-point of robustness to plant uncertainty, which is one of the most demanding properties in robot motion control.

This paper proposes new frame rate up-conversion algorithms. Adaptive motion estimation based on block complexity information are used to obtain more accurate motion vectors. Because the information on block complexity is extracted from the motion estimation prediction size from the original frame, additional computational complexity is not imparted. In experimental results, the proposed algorithms provide robust frame interpolation performance for whole test sequences. Also, the computational complexity of the proposed algorithm is reduced to a benchmark algorithm.

In ubiquitous computing environment the biological signal ECG (Electrocardiogram signal) is usually recorded with noise components. Adaptive interference (or noise) canceller do adaptive filtering of the noise reference input to maximally match and subtract out noise or interference from the primary (signal plus noise) input thereby adaptively eliminate unwanted interference from the ECG signal. Measured Stress ECG (or exercise ECG signal) signal have three major noisy component like baseline wander noise, motion artifact noise and EMG (Electro-mayo-cardiogram) noise. These noises are not only distorted signal but also root of incorrect diagnosis while ECG data are analyzed. Motion artifact and EMG noises behave like wide band spectrum signals, and they considerably do overlapping with the ECG spectrum. Here the multidimensional adaptive method used for filtering which is more effective to improve signal to noise ratio.

본 논문에서는 움직임의 시간적 연속성을 이용한 적응적 움직임 추정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존의 전역 탐색 방법 (FSA)에서와 같이 정방형의 전역 탐색 영역 (GSR)을 정하고, GSR 안에 시간적으로 인접한 블록들의 움직임 벡터들로 예측한 비정방형의 적응적 국부 탐색 영역 (LSR)들을 정한다. 여기서 시간적으로 인접한 블록은 이전 프레임의 블록 중 움직임 벡터로 볼 때 현재 프레임에 시간적으로 움직임이 연속될 가능성이 있는 블록이다. 그리고 이 LSR들로 만든 영역에 대해서만 움직임 탐색을 행하여 탐색의 정확성을 높이고 탐색 시간을 줄일 수 있다. 모의 실험 결과, 제안한 방법은 기존의 탐색 방법들에 비해 탐색 영역을 줄여 계산량을 현저히 낮추면서도 우수한 화질을 보였다.
