This paper presents an optimal design for the SPECT reconstruction filter, based on a physical limit of SPECT lesion detection capability. To increase the performance of the filter on lesion detectability, the filter design was focused on increasing the local SyW ratio of a threshold lesion, that was determined by minimum detectable lesion size (MDU) from SPECT lesion detectabllity contrast-detail curve. The proposed filter showed flexible window characteristics of resolution recovery and noise smoothing for MDLSs in the resolution-limited and photon-limited regions, respectively, compennting for the relative impact of the main limitation factors on threshold detectability. The simulated results showed good adaptability of the proposed filter to the changes in physical parameters of photon counts, object contrast, and detector system resolution.

The method proposed in this paper can improve the performance of the Boosting algorithm in machine learning. The proposed Boundary AdaBoost algorithm can make up for the weak points of Normal binary classifier using threshold boundary concepts. The new proposed boundary can be located near the threshold of the binary classifier. The proposed algorithm improves classification in areas where Normal binary classifier is weak. Thus, the optimal boundary final classifier can decrease error rates classified with more reasonable features. Finally, this paper derives the new algorithm's optimal solution, and it demonstrates how classifier accuracy can be improved using the proposed Boundary AdaBoost in a simulation experiment of pedestrian detection using 10-fold cross validation.

The ROC analysis is considered for multiple class diagnosis. There exist many criteria to find optimal thresholds and measure the accuracy of diagnostic tests for k dimensional ROC analysis. In this paper, we proposed a diagnostic accuracy measure called the correct classification simple rate, which is defined as the summation of true rates for each classification distribution and expressed as a function of summation of sequential true rates for two consecutive distributions. This measure does not weight accuracy across categories by the category prevalence and is comparable across populations for multiple class diagnosis. It is found that this accuracy measure does not only have a relationship with Kolmogorov - Smirnov statistics, but also can be represented as a linear function of some optimal threshold criteria. With these facts, the suggested measure could be applied to test for comparing multiple distributions.

본 연구는 영상처리의 전처리과정으로 중요한 영상 이진화를 위해 사용되는 전역임계값 결정을 위한 새로운 접근 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 원 영상의 전체적인 윤곽을 가장 많이 포함하는 최상위 비트평면을 사용하여 영상을 중복되지 않는 두 영역으로 구분한 뒤, 두 영역의 평균 밝기 값의 차이로 임계값을 결정하는 전역 임계화 방법이다. 실험결과 제안한 방법은 인위적인 초기값 설정을 필요로 하지 않으며, 상대적으로 계산량이 적고 원 영상의 윤곽을 양호하게 보존하는 이진영상을 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper presents a new automatic multithreshold selection method which is based on the threshold selection method proposed by Otsu. This method can overcome some of limitations of the Otsu's method. An optimal threshold is selected by the new criterion so as to maximize the separability in all subregions. To get multiple thresholds, the procedure may be recursively applied to the resultant classes which are determined by the proposed evaluation measure.

In this paper, we propose a new design of turbo decoder. It contains the simple additional unit which automatically decides the number of the iteration by detecting of the reliability value as threshold value. We investigate the relationship between the reliability value and the number of the iteration. We find the optimal threshold value without noticeable loss in performance. As a results of the simulation, it reduces the average number of the iteration compared with the conventional turbo decoder.

The changes in threshold voltage and DIBL were investigated for changes in remanent polarization P_r and coercive field E_c, which determine the characteristics of the P-E hysteresis curve of ferroelectric in NCFET (negative capacitance FET). The threshold voltage and DIBL (drain-induced barrier lowering) were observed for a junctionless double gate MOSFET using a gate oxide structure of MFMIS (metal-ferroelectric-metal-insulator-semiconductor). To obtain the threshold voltage, series-type potential distribution and second derivative method were used. As a result, it can be seen that the threshold voltage increases when P_r decreases and E_c increases, and the threshold voltage is also maintained constant when the P_r/E_c is constant. However, as the drain voltage increases, the threshold voltage changes significantly according to P_r/E_c, so the DIBL greatly changes for P_r/E_c. In other words, when P_r/E_c=15 pF/cm, DIBL showed a negative value regardless of the channel length under the conditions of ferroelectric thickness of 10 nm and SiO₂ thickness of 1 nm. The DIBL value was in the negative or positive range for the channel length when the P_r/E_c is 25 pF/cm or more under the same conditions, so the condition of DIBL=0 could be obtained. As such, the optimal condition to reduce short channel effects can be obtained since the threshold voltage and DIBL can be adjusted according to the device dimension of NCFET and the P_r and E_c of ferroelectric.

We consider a product recovery system that a single product is stocked in order to meet a demand from customers who may return products after usage. This paper addresses a problem of when to release a procurement process to replenish serviceable inventory and how many new products to procure. The structure of the optimal procurement policy is examined and numerically identified as a monotonic threshold curve. A numerical procedure is presented to jointly find the optimal procurement order size, optimal procurement policy, and optimal discounted profit. Sensitivity analysis also indicates that these optimal performance measurements have monotonic properties with respect to system parameters.

압축된 동영상에서 인덱싱을 위한 장면전환 검출기법에서 기존의 방법들은 실험에 의한 고정 임계값을 설정하여 임계값 보다 크면 장면전환이라고 판단해왔다. 기존의 고정 임계값을 적용시켰을 때는 플래쉬나 카메라 움직임 등에 의한 오검출이 많은 문제점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 장면 전환 검출을 위한 임계값을 동영상 특성 중, 장면전환점간격을 이용하여 임계값을 동적으로 변화시키는 방법이며, 고정 임계값을 사용하는 경우보다 오검출을 줄이는 향상된 장면전환 검출기법을 제안한다. 실험에서는 동영상 특성을 통계적으로 분석하여, 기존의 고정임계값과 제안한 동적임계값을 사용한 결과 값을 비교분석 하였다. 제안한 방법은 기존의 방법보다 30%정도 오검출이 줄었다.

In a single-source and multi-relay amplify-forward (AF) cooperative network, the outage probability and the power allocation are two key factors to influence the performance of an entire system. In this paper, an optimized AF relay selection by an exclusive method and near optimal power allocation (NOPA) is proposed for both good outage probability and power efficiency. Given the same power at the source and the relay nodes, a threshold for selecting the relay nodes is deduced and employed to minimize the average outage probability. It mainly excludes the relay nodes with much higher thresholds over the aforementioned threshold and thus the remainders of the relay nodes participate in cooperative forwarding efficiently. So the proposed scheme can improve the utility of the resources in the cooperative multi-relay system, as well as reduce the computational complexity. In addition, based on the proposed scheme, a NOPA is also suggested to approach sub-optimal power efficiency with low complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme obtains about 2.1dB and 5.8dB performance gain at outage probability of $10^{-4}$, when compared with the all-relay-forward (6 participated relays) and the single-relay-forward schemes. Furthermore, it obtains the minimum outage probability among all selective relay schemes with the same number of the relays. Meanwhile, it approaches closely to the optimal exhaustive scheme, thus reduce much complexity. Moreover, the proposed NOPA scheme achieves better outage probability than those of the equal power allocation schemes. Therefore, the proposed scheme can obtain good outage probability, low computational complexity and high power efficiency, which makes it pragmatic efficiently in the single-source and multi-relay AF based cooperative networks.
