In this paper, an interchannel interference (ICI) cancellation method is proposed for multiple frequency offsets in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. When several same signals are received from different transmitters simultaneously, multiple frequency offsets may occur at the receiver because of the frequency difference of the oscillators of the two transmitters and the receiver. This causes degradation of system performance because OFDM systems are very sensitive to the frequency offsets. In this paper, we propose a method to eliminate the effect of the multiple frequency offsets for OFDM systems. The method is accomplished in two steps: compensation of the frequency offset in the time domain and subsequent cancellation of the ICI in the frequency domain. Through computer simulations, we verify the effectiveness of the proposed ICI cancellation method.

A novel asymmetric multiple-image encryption method using an octonion Fresnel transform (OFST) and a two-dimensional Sine Logistic modulation map (2D-SLMM) is presented. First, a new multiple-image information processing tool termed the octonion Fresneltransform is proposed, and then an efficient method to calculate the OFST of an octonion matrix is developed. Subsequently this tool is applied to process multiple plaintext images, which are represented by octonion algebra, holistically in a vector manner. The complex amplitude, formed from the components of the OFST-transformed original images and modulated by a random phase mask (RPM), is used to derive the ciphertext image by employing an amplitude- and phase-truncation approach in the Fresnel domain. To avoid sending whole RPMs to the receiver side for decryption, a random phase mask generation method based on SLMM, in which only the initial parameters of the chaotic function are needed to generate the RPMs, is designed. To enhance security, the ciphertext and two decryption keys produced in the encryption procedure are permuted by the proposed SLMM-based scrambling method. Numerical simulations have been carried out to demonstrate the proposed scheme's validity, high security, and high resistance to various attacks.

In today's uncertain economic environment, the evaluation of safety for investment alternatives is of practical importance in manufacturing companies. This paper examines a method of quantitatively evaluating profitability and risk for multiple alternatives using the total-cost unit-cost domain. The paper assumes such factors as unit sales price, sales and production volume, unit variable cost, fixed cost, and yield for each alternative. The paper incorporates the relationship between production capacity and demand, distinguishing between cases of production capacity surplus and shortage for each year over the entire planning horizon. The paper investigates the case in which the values of each factor independently move in the direction of decreasing profit each year, and clarifies the procedure of comparing safety among multiple investment alternatives on a single consolidated total-cost unit-cost domain. The difficulty of the problem lies in the method of consolidating multiple total-cost unit-cost domains into a single domain since the combination of years of capacity surplus and shortage depends upon the change values in each factor under consideration. A systematic method of evaluating profitability as well as risk is presented, and the validity of the proposed method is verified using a numerical example.

In this work, the multiple dynamic absorber( MDA ) is introduced to reduce several vibration modes of shadow mask simultaneously and its design method is developed from the theory of the simple dynamic absorber. When designing the dynamic absorber, there are three significant design parameters such as mass, damping ratio and tuning frequency. Therefore the sensitivity analysis for those parameters has been executed in order to find out the design criteria of multiple dynamic absorber using the finite element model of shadow mask. The multiple dynamic absorber(MDA) designed by the proposed method is tested theoretically and experimentally to estimate the efficiency of vibration reduction. From the results, it is verified that the method is feasible to apply the system having the multiple nitration modes and more efficient than the thin wire-type damper used commercially to reduce the vibration of shadow mask.

In image communications related to web browsing, image database, and telemedicine, image data processing on the region of interest (ROI) for providing the primary information is needed in the view of saying search time and bandwidth. In this paper, an enhanced algorithm for processing image data that involves multiple ROIs is presented in order to increase PSNR vs. compression ratio performance above the previous JPEG2000 Part1 Maxshift method. Since the wavelet transform enables us to a progressive transmission mechanism, Multiple-ROI coding is possible to compress, transmit, and reconstruct the image data with a better quality than those of non-ROI method while the required transmission bandwidth is kept relatively low.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a method to maximize a content-based image retrieval efficiency in multiple images. To perform an image retrieval job efficiently, it is necessary to minimize the number of candidate-images. Furthermore, a miximum efficiency of image retrieval could not be expected if an image retrieval job in the multiple images is done on the basis of patterns of single image distinctive features. In this method, a multiple SOFM neural network system is adopted to select automatically distinctive feature patterns which have a maximum efficiency of image retrieval in the multiple images. In this method. an image retrieval efficiency is improved 3% than individual features and the number of candidate-images is reduced by the multiple SOFM neural network system.

Times to multiple events (TMEs) are a major data type in large-scale business and medical data. Despite its importance, the analysis of TME data has not been well studied because of the analysis difficulty from censoring of observation. To address this difficulty, we have developed a Bayesian-based multivariate survival analysis method, which can successfully estimate the joint probability density of survival times. In this work, we extended this method for the analysis of precedence, dependency and causality among multiple events. We applied this method to the electronic health records of 2,111 patients in a children's hospital in the US and the proposed analysis successfully shows the relation between times to two types of hospital visits for different medical issues. The overall result implies the usefulness of the multivariate survival analysis method in large-scale big data in a variety of areas including marketing, human resources, and e-commerce. Lastly, we suggest our future research directions based multivariate survival analysis method.

It is important for advanced active safety systems and autonomous driving cars to get the accurate estimates of the nearby vehicles in order to increase their safety and performance. This paper proposes a sensor fusion method for radar and vision sensors to accurately estimate the state of the preceding vehicles. In particular, we performed a study on compensating for the lateral state error on automotive radar sensors by using a vision sensor. The proposed method is based on the Interactive Multiple Model(IMM) algorithm, which stochastically integrates the multiple Kalman Filters with the multiple models depending on lateral-compensation mode and radar-single sensor mode. In addition, a Probabilistic Data Association Filter(PDAF) is utilized as a data association method to improve the reliability of the estimates under a cluttered radar environment. A two-step correction method is used in the Kalman filter, which efficiently associates both the radar and vision measurements into single state estimates. Finally, the proposed method is validated through off-line simulations using measurements obtained from a field test in an actual road environment.
