A new intra field deinterlacing algorithm with edge map in the image block is introduced. Conventional deinterlacing methods usually employ edge-based line average algorithm within pixel-by-pixel approach. However, it is sensitive to variation of intensity. To reduce this shortcoming, we proposed edge direction vector computed by edge map, and also its interpolation technique. We first introduce an edge direction vector, which is computed by Sobel mask, so that finer resolution of the edge direction can be acquired. The proposed edge direction vector oriented deinterlacer operates by identifying small pixel variations in five orientations, while weighted averaging to estimate missing pixel. According to the edge direction of the direction vector, we calculate weights on each edge direction. These weight values multiplied by the candidate deinterlaced pixels in order to successively build approximations of the deinterlaced sequence.

The current study extends previous research by investigating the role of shopping experience and product type within the direction of online reviews and information reliability and product attitude. To test the hypotheses, this study conducted experimental designs. Direction of online reviews and product type were manipulated as between-subject factors. Then participants were classified into high or low group based on their shopping frequency. Dependent variable was information reliability and product attitude. The results indicate that direction of online reviews have a significant effect on both information reliability and product attitude. In addition, consumers' shopping experience also shows a moderating effect between the direction of online reviews and the dependent variables. Furthermore, product type also shows a moderating effect on the information reliability, yet not on the product attitude. The results of this study contribute to the literature as a new attempt to examine the direction of online reviews in the online shopping area. We also indicated the limitations of this study, and suggested the future research directions.

The measure of motor speed using encoder is difficult to detect accurate speed and direction in very low speed because the intervals between an encoder pulse and pulse are long. So various speed estimation techniques were proposed to have the good dynamic performance in low speed. And direction detection is so important as speed measurement in very low speed. But because the conventional direction detection circuit check the direction only 1 time in 1 period of each encoder pulses, so it has long delayed detection time in very low speed, thus accurate detection of direction is difficult. In this paper, we propose a 2 way edge detection method which can detect at the rising and filling edge of each encoder pulses. So it can check the direction 4 times in 1 period of each encoder pulses. Therefore if we use proposed method, we can reduce the detection time as 1/4 than that of conventional circuit and can detect more accurate speed and direction. And computer simulation and experiment is performed to verify the perfomance and effect of proposed circuit and we analyze it's results by comparing with that of conventional circuit.

섬유 고분자 물질의 물리적 성질은 물질의 화학적 구조뿐만 아니라 분자의 배향과 결정화도와 같은 내부 구조에 의해 크게 영향을 받는다. 적외선 분광법은 특정 segment의 배향과 conformation, 결정화도와 같은 내부 구조의 변화를 선택적으로 관찰할 수 있는 장점으로 인하여 섬유 고분자 물질의 연구에 널리 사용되고 있다. 특히 적외선 분광법의 한 방법인 ATR (Attenuated Total Reflection) 방법은 투과에 의한 방법으로는 관찰이 불가능한 fiber, fabric, coating, thick film과 같은 형태의 시료를 관찰 할 수 있는 특성이 있으며 무엇보다 가장 큰 장점은 시료의 Machine Direction (MD), Transverse Direction(TD), Normal Direction (ND)의 세 방향으로 필름의 3차원적 배향 분석이 가능하다는 점이다.$^{1)}$ (중략)

Falls are the main cause of serious injuries and accidental deaths in people over the age of 65. Due to widespread adoption of smartphones, there has been a growing interest in the use of smartphones for detecting human behavior and activities. Modern smartphones are equipped with a wide variety of sensors such as an accelerometer, a gyroscope, camera, GPS, digital compass and microphone. In this paper, we introduce a new method that determines the fall direction of human subjects by analyzing the three axis components of acceleration vector.

The purpose of this paper is to find minimum surface shape of pneumatic structure using the finite element method. The pneumatic membrane structure is a kind of large deformation problem and very flexible composite material, which mean geomatric nonlinearity. It is not to resist for compression and resultant moment. As the displacement due to internal pressure is getting bigger, it should be considered the direction of forces. It becomes non-linear problem with the non-conservative force. The follower-force depends on the deformation and the direction of force is normal to each element. The solution process is obtained the new stiffness matrix (load correction matrix) depending on deformation through each iterated step. However, the stiffness matrix have not the symmetry and influence on the time of covergence. So in this paper Newton-Rhapson method for solving non-linear problem and for using symmetic matrix, the load direction is changed in each iterated step using the transformation matrix.

Although information communication technology (ICT) has been one of the most important infrastructures for our societies, it is still considered as a kind of black box having a barrier to be accepted and being not easily understood. Nevertheless, there are no proper research models or theories for explaining older adults' ICT uses. The objective of this study is to suggest a direction for studying older adults' ICT using behaviors. For this purpose, based on the review and analysis of current studies, main research issues are discussed and a new research framework for the research of older adults' ICT use, Silver ICT users Life Cycle(SILC), is suggested.

In this study, the proposed algorithm is a correlativity signal in a mobile wireless channel that has estimated the direction of arrival. The proposed algorithm applied the space average method in a MUSIC algorithm. The diagonal matrix of the space average method was changed to inverse the matrix and to obtain a new signal correlation matrix. The existing algorithm was analyzed and compared by applying a proposed signal correlation matrix to estimate the direction of arrival in a MUSIC algorithm. The experiment resulted in a proposed algorithm with a min-norm method resolution at more than $5^{\circ}$. It improved more than $2^{\circ}$ in a MUSIC algorithm.

In this paper, the search is conducted along each of the coordinate directions for finding the minimum. If $e_i$ is the unit vector along the coordinate direction i, we determine the value a, minimizing f(a)= $f(x+ae_i)$, where a is a real number. A move is made to the new point $x+a_ie_i$ at the end of the search along the direction i. In an n dimensional problem, we define the search along all the directions as one stage. The function value at the end of the stage is compared to the value at the beginning of the stage in establishing the convergence. The gradient appears to be zero at point. We can safeguard this by introducing an acceleration step of one additional step along the pattern direction developed by moves along the coordinate directions.

At new constructing national road, a cutting slope was surveyed and gotten face mapping for three months. The slope is composed of gray phyllite and coaly slate which is the Chang-ri Formation, Okcheon system. The slope angle is 40 degree and the direction is NNE. The attitude of schistosity is $260^{\circ}/45^{\circ}$. So the slope direction is nearly parallel to the schistosity. This is the reason that the slope is very unstable. On the other hand, the very unstable slope is caused by the direction of the schistosity and the slope. First month the coaly slate was slided through the schistosity plane about 10cm. However, three months late the displacement was 2m maximum.
