In this paper, we propose a new image alignment technique based on CUDA SURF in order to solve the initial image alignment problem that frequently occurs in machine vision applications. Machine vision systems using multi-spectral images have recently become more common for solving various decision problems that cannot be performed by the human vision system. These machine vision systems mostly use markers for the initial image alignment. However, there are some applications where the markers cannot be used and the alignment techniques have to be changed whenever their markers are changed. In order to solve these problems, we propose a new image alignment method for multi-spectral machine vision applications based on SURF extracting image features without depending on markers. In this paper, we propose an image alignment method that obtains a sufficient number of feature points from multi-spectral images using SURF and removes outlier iteratively based on a least squares method. We further propose an effective preliminary scheme for removing mismatched feature point pairs that may affect the overall performance of the alignment. In addition, we reduce the execution time by implementing the proposed method using CUDA based on GPGPU in order to guarantee real-time operation. Simulation results show that the proposed method is able to align images effectively in applications where markers cannot be used.

In Strapdown Inertial Navigation System, alignment accuracy is the most important factor to determine the performance of navigation. However by an existing self-alignment method, it takes a long time to acquire the alignment accuracy that we want. So, to attain the desired alignment accuracy in as little as $\bigcirc$ minutes, we have developed the precise multi-position alignment method. In this paper, it is proposed a inertial measurement matching transfer alignment method among alignment methods to minimize the alignment error in a short time. It is based on a mixed velocity-DCM matching method be suitable to the operating environment of vertical launching system. The compensation methods to reduce misalign error, especially azimuth angle error incurred by measurement time-delay error and body flexure error are analyzed and evaluated with simulation. This simulation results are finally confirmed by experimentations using FMS(Flight Motion Simulator) in Lab and the integration test to follow the fire control mission.

In this paper, a SDINS(Strapdown Inertial Navigation System) rapid initial alignment technique robust to the pyro-shock in multi-launch rocket system is proposed. The proposed method consists of three steps. Firth, transfer alignment is performed to estimate misalignment between MINS(Master INS) and SINS(Slave INS), and the estimated misalignment is written in the memory when transfer alignment is completed. Next, the pre-filtering process is performed to get rid of the acceleration error induced by launcher vibration. Finally, the horizontal alignment is performed to compensate misalignment variation caused by pyro-shock. We verified the performance of the proposed alignment method comparing with the conventional transfer alignment method. The simulation shows that the proposed initial alignment technique improves alignment performance.

We propose a soft-lithographic patterning method for producing a multi-domain liquid crystal (LC) alignment. The LC alignment polyimide layers are periodically patterned in the pixel boundaries by a micromolding-in-capillaries method. In our structure, the initially homeotropic LC orientations in the pixel areas are changed to axially symmetric LC domains due to the symmetric pretilt of LC molecules on the pixel boundaries.

본 논문은 다중 셀 상향링크 시스템의 셀 간 간섭을 완화시키기 위한 부분공간 간섭 정렬을 적용했을 때 높은 채널 이득과 높은 합용량을 얻기 위해 간섭 신호공간 형성에 사용되는 레퍼런스 벡터 설정 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 레퍼런스 벡터의 설정에 따라 채널과의 매칭이 달라지고 이로부터 셀의 합용량이 변화하는 레퍼런스 벡터의 다이버서티를 얻는 것이다. 각 셀의 처리량을 최대화시키기 위해 전송 전에 여러 개의 레퍼런스 벡터를 전송하고 이중에서 최적의 레퍼런스 벡터를 선정함으로써 기존의 간섭정렬방식보다 높은 채널 이득과 높은 합용량을 얻을 수 있다. 전산 모의실험을 통해 제안된 방법을 적용한 경우 임의로 설정된 레퍼런스 벡터를 설정했을 때의 셀 합용량에 비해 약 60% 향상된 값을 얻었다.

Government efforts for green growth policy initiatives demand low-carbon technologies in the road construction industry. The purpose of this paper is to develop an algorithm of a road alignment design solution for establishing the multi-dimensional information, and to calculate carbon emission quantity due to the geometric design elements in the planning phase of road alignment. The paper developed a calculation method for carbon emission quantity by drawing a speed profile reflected in the operating speed, acceleration and deceleration, which are majors factor of carbon emissions while driving and by applying a carbon emission factor. From this effort, it enabled alignment planning to reduce carbon emission. Object-based parametric design methods of the cross-sections were proposed for alignment planning, and the paper demonstrated a BIM-based road alignment planning solution. The proposed solutions can provide multi-dimensional information on carbon emission quantity and cross section elements through driving simulation. It is expected to allow construction of eco-friendly roads by deriving optimal road alignment to minimize environmental costs.

본 논문에서는 다중 셀 다중 사용자 시스템에서 상향링크시 셀 간 간섭을 완화시키기 위한 부분공간 간섭 정렬을 적용했을 때 높은 합용량을 유지하기 위한 사용자 선택 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 각 사용자가 인접 셀에 미치는 간섭이 큰 사용자를 선택하고 간섭 정렬을 적용함으로써 간섭 정렬을 하는 사용자 수를 줄이는 동시에 높은 합용량을 유지시킨다. 전산 모의 실험을 통해 전체 합용량을 달성 가능한 최대 합용량의 90%로 설정했을 때 부분공간 간섭 정렬을 위해 채널을 분해 하는 사용자 수가 50%이상 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

We propose a patterning method of liquid crystal (LC) alignment layer for producing multi-domain LC structures. By controlling thermal conditions during micro-contact printing procedures and facilitating wetting properties of patterning materials, patterned LC orientation can be easily obtained on a bare ITO surface or other polymer films. The newly proposed patterning method is expected to be a very useful tool for fabricating multi-domain LC structures to enhance or design electro-optic properties of LC-based devices.

The acquisition of a panoramic image has been popular in recent years due to its large number of applications. In this paper, we deal with generation of a full panoramic mosaic. When it mosaicing consecutive frames, a simple alignment method may lead to local and global alignment errors. These errors can make a full-view panoramic mosaic to be cracked. In order to solve this problem, we propose the bidirectional alignment with multi-anchor (BAMA) algorithm with a basic local alignment formula. Experimental results show that we can create full panoramic mosaics stably through the proposed algorithm.

We propose a novel calibration method which can be applied to all kinds of panel-type multi-view displays. We analyze how the angular, the axial, and the lateral misalignment affects the 3D image quality in a panel-type multi-view display. We demonstrate the ray optics simulation with a 3-view slanted parallax barrier system using pentile display for the quantitative calculation. Based on the analysis, we propose a new alignment pattern for all kinds of panel-type multi-view displays. The proposed pattern is sensitive to all of the angular, the axial, and the lateral misalignments. The high spatial frequency images and on and off alignment in the proposed pattern help observers to calibrate the system easily. We theoretically show the generality of the proposed alignment pattern and verify the pattern with image simulations and experiments.
