We review the algebraic structure of $\mathbb{H}{\sharp}$ and show that $\mathbb{H}{\sharp}$ has a scalar product that allows as to identify it with semi Euclidean ${\mathbb{E}}^4_2$. We show that a pair q and p of unit split quaternions in $\mathbb{H}{\sharp}$ determines a rotation $R_{qp}:\mathbb{H}{\sharp}{\rightarrow}\mathbb{H}{\sharp}$. Moreover, we prove that $R_{qp}$ is a product of rotations in a pair of orthogonal planes in ${\mathbb{E}}^4_2$. To do that we call upon one tool from the theory of second ordinary differential equations.

This studies were conducted to derive synthetic unitgraphs and triangular unitgraphs correlated with watershed characteristics which can be used to the estimation and control of flood for the rational development of Agricultural water resources. Derived Synthetic unitgraphs and Triangular unitgraphs can be applied to the ungaged watersheds were compared with average unitgraphs by observed data. Seven small watersheds were selected as studying basins Han, Geum, Nakdong, Yeongsan and Inchon river system. The results summarized for these studies are as follows: 1. Average unitgraphs by observed data and dimensionless unitgraphs for synthesis were derived for all river systems. 2. Peak discharge per unit area of the unitgraph, qp, was derived as qp=10-0.389-0.0424Lg with a high significance. 3. Formulas for the base width of unitgraph of 50 and 75 percent for peak flow for each water systems was adopted as Table 5. 4. The base length of the unitgraph, Tb, in hours in connection with time to peak, Tp, in hours was expressed as Tb =4.3Tp. 5. Peak discharge, Qp, were obtained as Table 6 by the Triangular form to all subwatersheds. 6. Relative errors in the peak discharge of the synthetic unitgraphs showed to be 7.3 percent to the peak of observed average unitgraphs except errors of peak discharge for Yeongsan river system. This indicates that Synthetic unitgraphs for the small watersheds of Han, Geum, Nakdong and Inchon river systems can be applied to the ungaged watersheds. On the other hand, It was confirmed that the accuracy of Instantaneous Unit Hydrograph with only 1.6 percent as relative errors was approaching more closely to the observed average unitgraph than that of synthetic unitgraph with relative errors. 23.9 percent for Yeongsan river system. 7. Errors in the peak discharge of the triangular unitgraph to the observed average unitgraph showed to be 0.6 percent to 7.5 percent which can be regarded as a high precision within the range of 200 to 500$\textrm{km}^2$ in area. On the contrary, application of triangular unitgraph within the range of 200$\textrm{km}^2$ in area has defined as a unsuitable method because of high relative errors, 26.4 percent to 61.6 percent.

At the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Hanyang university, from 1976 to 1984, 102 patients operated for isolated patent ductus arteriosus were studied. The correlation between the degree of left ventricular hypertrophy [LVH] and hemodynamic data, and postoperative changes of electrocardiographic findings were evaluated. The following results were obtained; [1] Of 102 patients with isolated patent ductus arteriosus, 78 patients [76.5%] were found to have LVH by EKG, preoperatively. [2] The patients with LVH had higher incidence of respiratory infection [79.4%] compared to patients without LVH. [3] Frequent physical findings in the patients with LVH were precordial bulging and P2 accentuation on auscultation. The typical continuous machinery murmur was not different in two group with or without LVH. [4] 66.1% of patients with LVH showed more than 56% of cardiothoracic ratio [CTR] on simple chest X-ray. 56.5% of patients without LVH showed less than 50% of CTR. [5] In the patients found to have LVH by EKG, the correlation between values of Svl+Rv6 and Qp/Qs in hemodynamic data was correlation coefficient 0.57 and between CTR and Qp/Qs was correlation coefficient 0.51. [6] In patent ductus arteriosus with LVH following surgery, the values of Svl+Rv6 was changed from preoperative 153.6$\pm$42.78% to 107.7$\pm$19.58% within 3 months and to 80.4$\pm$12.22%, which is within normal range of Svl+Rv6 on EKC, after 6 months.

In this paper, we propose a novel hardware architecture for Rate control module for real time full HD video compression. In the proposed architecture, QP is updated by using the rate control algorithm to every the macroblock line(120MB for Full HD, 20MB for CIF image). Since there are many complex arithmetic and floating point arithmetic in rate control algorithm of JM for H.264, it is impossible to process the rate control algorithm using the integer arithmetic CPU core. So we adopted floating point arithmetic unit in our architecture, and implemented the rate control algorithm using the floating unit. With this implemented hardware, the implemented hardware is verified to be operated in real time.

In this paper, we propose a rate control scheme, using histogram based rate-distortion (R-D) estimation, which produces a consistent picture quality between consecutive frames. The histogram based R-D estimation used in our rate control scheme offers a closed-form mathematical model that enable us to predict the bits and the distortion generated from an encoded frame at a given quantization parameter (QP) and vice versa. The most attractive feature of the R-D estimation is low complexity of computing the R-D data because its major operation is just to obtain a histogram or weighted histogram of DCT coefficients from an input picture. Furthermore, it is accurate enough to be applied to the practical video coding. Therefore, the proposed rate control scheme using this R-D estimation model is appropriate for the applications requiring low delay and low complexity, and controls the output bit-rate ad quality accurately. Our rate control scheme ensures that the video buffer do not underflow and overflow by satisfying the buffer constraint and, additionally, prevents quality difference between consecutive frames from exceeding certain level by adopting the distortion constraint. In addition, a consistent considering the maximum tolerance BER of the voice service. Also in Rician fading channel of K=6 and K=10, considering CLP=$10^{-3}$ as a criterion, it is observed that the performance improment of about 3.5 dB and 1.5 dB is obtained, respectively, in terms of $E_b$/$N_o$ by employing the concatenated FEC code with pilot symbols.

The main purpose of rate control is to achieve the highest video quality when bandwidth or storage capacity is limited. For this purpose, we need a rate control algorithm which is adaptively controlled by the motion information of sequences, scene change, buffer capacity and time-varing bandwitdh channels. A rate-control method in the encoder requires the accurate estimation of target bit for each frame and the low end-to-end delay for transmitting video data by intelligent selection of encoding parameters. In this paper, we suggest three kinds of linear relation in the encoder to satisfy the characteristics of rate control. The first relation is that between the percentage of zero quantized transformed coefficients(p) and coded bits. Second relation is that between the PSNR of encoded frame and its Quantization parameter(QP). Finally, we can find out a linear approximation between QP and p. According to the experimental analysis, the proposed method results in an efficient rate control in terms of the bit estimation, the buffer capacity, and PSNR compared with the existing rate control in the H.264 JM 9.3.

In the new video coding standard, called high efficiency video coding (HEVC), the coding unit (CU) is adopted as a basic unit of a coded block structure. Therefore, the rate control (RC) methods of H.264/AVC, whose basic unit is a macroblock, cannot be applied directly to HEVC. This paper proposes the largest CU (LCU) level RC method for hierarchical video coding in a HEVC. In the proposed method, the effective bit allocation is performed first based on the hierarchical structure, and the quantization parameters (QP) are then determined using the Cauchy density based rate-quantization (RQ) model. A novel method based on the linear rate model is introduced to estimate the parameters of the Cauchy density based RQ model precisely. The experimental results show that the proposed RC method not only controls the bitrate accurately, but also generates a constant number of bits per second with less degradation of the decoded picture quality than with the fixed QP coding and latest RC method for HEVC.

At the Dept. of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery of Pusan National University Hospital, postoperative cardiac catheterizations were performed in 12 patients of ventricular septal defect with severe pulmonary hypertension [Pp/Ps>0.75], who were operated during the period from July 1981 to Dec. 1986. The mean age of the patients preoperatively was 12.4 [range: 4-18] year-old and the mean follow-up duration was 25.8 [range: 8-53] month per patient. In comparison with the preoperative data, the systolic pulmonary artery pressure [SPAP] was decreased from 103.6*18.4 to 70.4*35.9 mmHg [p<0.01] and the Pp/Ps was decreased from 0.89*0.10 to 0.58*0.27 [p<0.01]. But the Rp/Rs and Rp were not meaningfully changed, from 0.31*0.16 and 7.6*0.4 unit to 0.41*0.32 and 8.0*6.6 unit, respectively. The preoperative Qp/Qs was bellow 2.0[mean: 1.6] in 3 out of 4 cases whose postoperative Rp/Rs and Rp were above 0.75 and 15 unit, respectively. On the contrary, the preoperative Qp/Qs was above 2.0 [mean: 3.5] in all of the 8 cases, whose postoperative Rp/Rs and Rp were below 0.50 and 10 unit, respectively.
