This paper proposes a new fire-smoke detection method by using extracted features from camera images and pattern recognition technique. First, moving regions are detected by analyzing the frame difference between two consecutive images and generate candidate smoke regions by applying smoke color model. A smoke region generally has a few characteristics such as similar color, simple texture and upward motion. From these characteristics, we extract brightness, wavelet high frequency and motion vector as features. Also probability density functions of three features are generated using training data. Probabilistic models of smoke region are then applied to observation nodes of our proposed Dynamic Bayesian Networks (DBN) for considering time continuity. The proposed algorithm was successfully applied to various fire-smoke tasks not only forest smokes but also real-world smokes and showed better detection performance than previous method.

It is difficult for the movement detection of an object through a camera to detect exact movement because of unnecessary noises and changes of the light. It can be recognized as a background, when there is no movement after the inflow of an object. Therefore, It is necessary to fast search algorithm for tracking and extract of object that is realtime image. In this thesis, we evaluate the difference of the input vision based on initial image and replace some pixels in process of time. When there is a big difference between background image and input image, we decide it is the point of the time of the object input and then extract boundary point of it. The extracted boundary point detects precise movement of the object by creating minimum block of it and searching block that maintaining distance. The designed and embodied system shows more than 95% accuracy in the performance test.

In this paper, we propose a method that gives motion command to a mobile robot to recognize human being's hand gesture. Former way of the robot-controlling system with the movement of hand used several kinds of pre-arranged gesture, therefore the ordering motion was unnatural. Also it forced people to study the pre-arranged gesture, making it more inconvenient. To solve this problem, there are many researches going on trying to figure out another way to make the machine to recognize the movement of the hand. In this paper, we used third-dimensional camera to obtain the color and depth data, which can be used to search the human hand and recognize its movement based on it. We used HMM method to make the proposed system to perceive the movement, then the observed data transfers to the robot making it to move at the direction where we want it to be.

Purpose: This meta-analysis aimed to analyze to the effects of aquatic exercise programs in children with cerebral palsy and identify directions for future research. Methods: A systematic search based on the PRISMA guidelines was undertaken for studies conducted between 2006 and 2018 on aquatic exercise programs in children with cerebral palsy. A total of 10 studies were selected according to the inclusion criteria. The methodological quality was assessed using the Risk of Bias Tool for Randomized Controlled Trials (RoB) and Risk-of-Bias Assessment Tool for Non-randomized Studies (RoBANS). A meta-analysis software (CMA 3.0) was used to calculate the mean effect size, effect size by intervention (Halliwick and Watsu Aquatic methods), and effect size by outcome. Results: The mean effect size was 0.457. The effect size by intervention was largest for the Halliwick method, followed by the Watsu method. The effect size by outcome was largest for range of motion, followed by the gross motor function measure, the Pediatric Berg Balance Scale, and the Modified Ashworth Scale. Meta-regression analysis showed effect size increased when sample size, number of sessions, and length of sessions increased. Conclusion: The results show that aquatic exercise programs have a positive effect on children with cerebral palsy. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a guideline that recommends the appropriate intervention and the identifies the direction of future studies on aquatic exercise programs.

This paper proposes a novel acceleration method for particle based large scale fluid simulation. Traditional particle-based fluid simulation has been implemented by interacting with physical quantities of neighbor particles through the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics(SPH) technique[1]. SPH method has the characteristic that there is no visible change compared to the computation amount in a part where the particle movement is small, such as a calm surface or inter-fluid. This becomes more prominent as the number of particles increases. Previous work has attempted to reduce the amount of spare computation by adaptively dividing each part of the fluid. In this paper, we propose a technique to calculate the motion of the entire particles by using the physical quantities of the near sampled particles by sampling the particles inside the fluid at regular intervals and using them as reference points of the fluid motion. We propose a technique to adaptively generate a triangle map based on the position of the sampled particles in order to efficiently search for nearby particles, and we have been able to interpolate the physical quantities of particles using the barycentric coordinate system. The proposed acceleration technique does not perform any additional correction for two classes of fluid particles. Our technique shows a large improvement in speed as the number of particles increases. The proposed technique also does not interfere with the fine movement of the fluid surface particles.

Currently, The new wave of information technology has enormously influenced every field. In the Held of design, it is time to strive possible efforts in order to accumulate the design-related knowledge by maintaining, managing and controlling design information in a systematic manner, getting out of the old stage of mere use of data itself. Due to remarkable progress in communication media and speed, and file compression technology, text-centric data has been shifting to multimedia data such as image and motion picture. So it is currently required that methologies be developed to effectively utilize the related information. With respect to the processing of image data, it is certain that the optimal method should be come up with reflecting the unique characteristics and utilization of image data, apart from the traditional way of processing and storing the legacy text-based data. The study suggests the system of indexing and implementing design image information through the case of analyzing design image data, abstracting data elements of image itself, and finally applying it to building image-oriented database for use.

Purpose : This study was to evaluate the effectiveness of exercise therapies for breast cancer patients through review analysis of the rehabilitation they had usually received to increase the quality of their lives. Exercise therapy for breast cancer patients has proven to be highly effective, so it is strongly recommended. Method : Focusing on breast cancer-related journal articles published since 1990, an analysis using the Spolit and Medline search engines was undertaken of breast krebs, tumors, cancer, sportaktivitaet, and exercise in patients with breast cancer. Exercise for breast cancer patients has been considered to have positive effects on fatigue, muscle weakness, and the range of motion of upper extremities, as well as on depression. Breast cancer patients have to be divided according to their identifying clinical characteristics, and then have to be prescribed a suitable exercise program. In accordance with previous articles, a varied exercise program was organized in terms of frequency, duration, and intensity. The frequency was more than three times per week. Its duration was about 30 minutes per session. Result : The intensity of exercise was moderate. The types of exercises included recommended strengthening exercises, as well as various aerobic exercises. Based on previous data, a new exercise method for breast cancer patients was introduced in this study. Conclusion : Above all, exercise programs should be planned according to the different characteristics of breast cancer patients, in order to reduce physical impairments and psychological problems.

본 논문에서는 One-bit 변환을 기반으로 한 고속의 가변 블록 크기 움직임 예측 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 블록 내의 평균값을 이용하여 8bit 화소값을 1bit로 변환한 후 움직임 예측을 수행한다. One-bit 변환을 통한 영상의 단순화는 움직임 추정의 계산적 부담을 감소시켜 빠른 탐색을 가능하게 한다. 그리고 블록 내의 움직임 정도를 미리 판별하여 이를 기반으로 한 적응적 탐색이 불필요한 탐색을 제거하고 움직임이 큰 블록에서는 정합과정을 심화시켜 보다 정확한 움직임 예측을 수행한다. 본 제안된 방식을 가지고 실험한 결과 한 프레임당 적은 수의 블록으로 고정된 크기의 블록을 가진 전역 탐색 블록 정합 알고리즘(full search block matching algorithm; FSBMA)보다 예측 에러를 적게 발생시켜 평균적으로 0.5dB 정도의 PSNR 개선을 가져왔다. 특히, 움직임이 많은 영상에서 뛰어난 효과를 나타냈다.

The characteristics of ballistic missiles are changing rapidly but studies have mostly focused on fragmentary flight trajectory analysis estimating the changing characteristics of some types, while there is a lack of research on comprehensive and efficient ballistic search, detection and prediction for missiles including the new types that have been gaining attention lately. This paper analyzes the flight trajectory characteristics of ballistic missiles at various ranges considering flight path angle adjustment, specific impulse and drag force with altitude based on the optimized equations of motion reflecting the parameters of North Korea's general and new types of ballistic missiles. The flight trajectory characteristics of representative ranges for each ballistic missile were analyzed by adjusting the flight path angle in the minimum energy method, lofted method, and depressed method. In addition, High value target can attacked by ballistic missiles considering flight path angle adjustment at various points. It's expected to be used to Threat Evaluation and Weapon Allocation, and deployment of defense systems by interpreting the analysis of the latest Iskander-class ballistic missiles and the new multiple rocket launcher.

In HEVC, the fast search method is used for reducing the complexity of the motion prediction procedure. It is consisted of the sub-sampled SAD which reduce the complexity of Sum of Absolute Differences(SAD) calculation and the simplified bi-prediction method which reduce the iterations of the uni-prediction for the bi-prediction. The computational complexity is largely decreased by the fast search method but the coding gain is also decreased. In this paper, the simplified bi-prediction is extended to compensate the performance loss and the prediction cost based complexity reduction methods are also proposed to reduce the complexity burden by the extended bi-prediction method. A prediction cost based complexity reduction method is consisted of early termination method for the extended bi-prediction and the bi-prediction skipping method. Compare with HM 6.0 references S/W, the average 0.42% of BD-bitrate is decreased by both the extended bi-prediction method and the prediction cost based complexity reduction methods with negligible increasement of the complexity.
