We propose a novel negative differential resistance (NDR) device with ultra-high peak-to-valley current ratio (PVCR) by combining pn junction diode with depletion mode nanowire (NW) transistor, which suppress the valley current with transistor off-leakage level. Band-to-band tunneling (BTBT) Esaki diode with degenerately doped pn junction can provide multiple switching behavior having multi-peak and valley currents. These multiple NDR characteristics can be controlled by doping concentration of tunnel diode and threshold voltage of NW transistor. By designing our NDR device, PVCR can be over $10^4$ at low operation voltage of 0.5 V in a single peak and valley current.

For pattern matching, an object image should be segmented and analyzed for the first time. Thresholding is a fundamental approach to segmentation that utilizes a significant degree of pixel popularity or intensity. Otsu's thresholding is one of the most veil-known methods proposed in the literature. However, the method has a disadvantage of repeatedly searching the optimal thresholds for the entire region. To overcome this problem, a number of methods have been proposed. In this paper, we propose a simple and fast thresholding method of finding multi-level threshold values by extending the Otsu's method. Our experimental results for the benchmak images show a possibility that the proposed method could be used efficiently for pattern matching.

This paper presents a watermarking algorithm for embedding visually recognizable pattern (Mark, Logo, Symbol, stamping or signature) into the image. first, the color image(RGB model)is transformed in YCbCr model and then the Y component is transformed into 3-level wavelet transform. Next, the values are assembled with pattern watermark. PN(pseudo noise) code at spread spectrum communication method and mutilevel watermark weights. This values are inserted into discrete wavelet domain. In our scheme, new calculating method is designed to calculate wavelet transform with integer value in considering the quantization error. and we used the color conversion with fixed-point arithmetic to be easy to make the hardware hereafter. Also, we made the new solution using mutilevel threshold to robust to common signal distortions and malicious attack, and to enhance quality of image in considering the human visual system. the experimental results showed that the proposed watermarking algorithm was superior to other similar water marking algorithm. We showed what it was robust to common signal processing and geometric transform such as brightness. contrast, filtering. scaling. JPEG lossy compression and geometric deformation.

제안된 동판 표면 검사 시스템은 PC-기반으로 다중 스레드 기법과 다중 CPU를 이용해 동판 표면의 결함을 실시간으로 검사하는 시스템이다. 초고속 라인 스캔 카메라로 영상 취득 보드에 영상을 실시간으로 취득하여 처리할 때, 더블 버퍼링 방법으로 입출력과 처리가 동시에 수행되어 처리 속도를 높인다. 다중 스레드 기법에서는 시스템 자원 활용과 다중 스레드로 CPU의 사용을 최대화하여 실시간 처리하며, 다중 스레드 구조로도 실시간 처리가 어려운 경우에는 다중 CPU를 사용하여 이를 해결한다. 또한 동판 표면 영상에서 결함 검출하여 분류할 때, 실시간 처리를 만족시키기 위해서 결함영상의 공분산 행렬의 고유치 비율, 명암차 등의 연산으로 분류할 수 있는 방법을 제시한다. 결함의 검출은 조명 불균형에 대한 보상 처리가 적용된 다음 임계치에 의해 검출된다. 검출된 결함은 제안된 분류 방법으로 특징을 분석한 뒤 결함의 형태를 분류한다. 특징은 결함 너비와 고유치 비율, 명암차 등이 사용되었다. 제시된 방법을 검증하기 위해서 총 141개의 결함을 분류하는 실험이 진행되었고, 결과로는 89.4% 성공률을 보였다.

To date, no clear threshold that has been established for defining an adequate store of vitamin D for bone health. Therefore, this study aims to determine the required level of vitamin D to maintain a healthy skeleton based on bone remodelling process among healthy adult population. This was a cross sectional study, involving a healthy adult population in Kota Bharu, Malaysia, aged 18~50 years. We measured serum 25(OH)D (vitamin D), serum parathyroid hormone (PTH), serum C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen (CTX), and Procollagen 1 Intact N-Terminal (P1NP) in 120 healthy adults selected via multi stage sampling (64 males, 56 females) from 6 subdistricts in Kota Bharu. The mean level of 25(OH)D was 23.50 (${\pm}8.74$) nmol/L. There was a significant difference of the vitamin D level between genders ($26.81{\pm}8.3nmol/L$ vs $19.72{\pm}7.68nmol/L$ in males and females respectively) (p value<0.001). More than 50% of female subjects had 25(OH)D less than 20 nmol/L, while only 20.3% of male subjects had 25(OH)D below 20 nmol/L. Based on the LOESS plot, the bone turnover markers showed a plateauing result, at the 25(OH)D level of 35 nmol/L for CTX and 20 nmol/L for P1NP. Contrastingly, PTH showed a step rise in the 25(OH)D level of 20 nmol/L. Based on the LOESS plot for CTX, P1NP and PTH versus 25(OH)D, level of vitamin D between 20 to 35 nmol/L is recommended to maintain healthy skeleton.

무선 센서 네트워크는 다양한 응용분야에서, 개방된 환경에 배치되어지므로, 공격자에게 손쉽게 노출된다는 취약점을 가지고 있다. 선택적 전달 공격(Selective Forwarding Attack)은 센서 네트워크에서 발생할 수 있는 공격중의 하나로 공격자는 훼손된 노드를 통하여 전장지역에서의 적의 움직임등과 같이 중요한 정보의 기지노드까지 정상적인 전달을 차단하여 감시자의 원활한 탐지를 어렵게 한다. Xiao, Yu 그리고 Gao는 이와 같은 위협에 대한 대안으로 선택적 전달 공격 탐지기법(checkpointbased multi-hop acknowledgement scheme; 이하 CHEMAS)를 제안하였다. CHEMAS에서 전달경로 상에 노드들은 미리 정해진 확률에 따라 감시 노드(checkpoint)로 선택되어지며 이 감시 노드들을 통해 공격 발생 지역을 탐지할 수 있다. 해당 기법에서 인증 패킷 전달 홉 수는 시스템 상에서 탐지율과 에너지 효율 사이에서 트레이드 오프 관계에 있으므로 매우 중요한 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 보안 강도를 충분히 유지하면서, 에너지 효율성 또한 제공할 수 있는 경계 값 선택을 위해 퍼지 규칙 시스템을 적용하였다. 기지노드는 퍼지 규칙 시스템을 이용하여 매 주기마다 에너지 레벨과 훼손된 노드 수 그리고 기지노드로부터의 거리를 고려하여 상황에 맞는 적절한 경계 값을 결정한다.

Many car manufacturers have frequently adopted an aggressive inflator and a lower threshold speed for airbag deployment in order to meet an injury requirement for unbolted occupant at high speed crash test. Consequently, today's occupant safety restraint system has a weakness due to an airbag induced injury at low speed crash event. This paper proposes a new crash algorithm to improve the weakness by suppressing airbag deployment at low speed crash event in case of belted condition. The proposed algorithm consists of two major blocks-crash severity algorithm and deployment logic block. The first block decides crash severity with two levels by means of velocity and crash energy calculation from acceleration signal. The second block implemented by simple AND/OR logic combines the crash severity level and seat belt status information to generate firing commands for airbag and belt pretensioner. Furthermore, it can be extended to adopt additional sensor information from passenger presence detection sensor and safing sensor. A simulation using real crash data for a 1,800cc passenger vehicle has been conducted to verify the performance of proposed algorithm.
