Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is used in a wide array of researches in plant molecular genetics and breeding. However, considerable time and cost are still required for the preparation of DNA suitable for reliable PCR results, especially in plant species containing high amounts of polyphenols. To reduce time and effort for PCR-based analysis, a simplified but reliable method was developed by a combinational employment of a simple and fast DNA extraction procedure and BLOTTO (Bovine Lacto Transfer Technique Optimizer) in reaction mixture. Genomic DNAs prepared by one-step extraction method from recalcitrant plant species such as Rubus coreanus, apple, grape and lettuce were successfully amplified by random primers in the reaction mixture containing 2 to 4% BLOTTO. Successful amplification of ${\gamma}$-TMT transgene in lettuce transformants by the specific primers was also achieved in the same condition, making rapid screening of positive transformants possible. Our results suggest that use of a simple DNA extraction procedure and incorporation of BLOTTO in reaction mixture in combination can reduce time and effort required for the analyses of a large number of germplasms and transformants by PCR-based techniques.

This paper proposes an image feature-based real-time RGB-D (Red-Green-Blue Depth) 3D SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) system. RGB-D data from Kinect style sensors contain a 2D image and per-pixel depth information. 6-DOF (Degree-of-Freedom) visual odometry is obtained through the 3D-RANSAC (RANdom SAmple Consensus) algorithm with 2D image features and depth data. For speed up extraction of features, parallel computation is performed with GPU acceleration. After a feature manager detects a loop closure, a graph-based SLAM algorithm optimizes trajectory of the sensor and builds a 3D point cloud based map.

In detail, this mobile OTP generation model is made up of mobile OTP generation and extraction algorithm satisfying the conditions for reviewing mobile OTP implementation. In order to improve the security of the existing OTP-based systems, the suggested method utilizes user's ID and random number at the mobile OTP generation stage.

LSB-based steganography is a simple and well known information hiding technique. In most LSB based techniques, a secret message is embedded into a specific position of LSB in the cover pixels. On the other hand, the main threat of LSB-based steganography is steganalysis. This paper proposes an asynchronous-cellular-automata(ACA)-based steganographic method, where secret bits are embedded into the selected position inside the cover pixel by ACA rule 51 and a secret key. As a result, it is very difficult for malicious users to retrieve a secret message from a cover image without knowing the secret key, even if the extraction algorithm is known. In addition, another layer of security is provided by almost random (rule-based) selection of a cover pixel for embedding using ACA and a different secret key. Finally, the experimental results show that the proposed method can be secured against the well-known steganalysis RS-attack.

This study focuses on an advanced second-order sliding mode control strategy for a variable speed wind turbine based on a permanent magnet synchronous generator to maximize wind power extraction while simultaneously reducing the mechanical stress effect. The control design based on a modified version of the super-twisting algorithm with variable gains can be applied to the cascaded system scheme comprising the current control loop and speed control loop. The proposed control inheriting the well-known robustness of the sliding technique successfully deals with the problems of essential nonlinearity of wind turbine systems, the effects of disturbance regarding variation on the parameters, and the random nature of wind speed. In addition, the advantages of the adaptive gains and the smoothness of the control action strongly reduce the chatter signals of wind turbine systems. Finally, with comparison with the traditional super-twisting algorithm, the performance of the system is verified through simulation results under wind speed turbulence and parameter variations.

This paper describes an approach to estimate a robot pose with an image. The algorithm of pose estimation with an image can be broken down into three stages : extracting scale-invariant features, matching these features and calculating affine invariant. In the first step, the robot mounted mono camera captures environment image. Then feature extraction is executed in a captured image. These extracted features are recorded in a database. In the matching stage, a Random Sample Consensus(RANSAC) method is employed to match these features. After matching these features, the robot pose is estimated with positions of features by calculating affine invariant. This algorithm is implemented and demonstrated by Matlab program.

본 논문에서는 최근, 차세대 정보보호 기술로 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있는 디지털 정보은폐(Digital Information hiding) 기술과 광정보처리 기술을 상호 보완적으로 이용한 새로운 복합 광-디지털 다중 정보은폐 및 실시간 추출 시스템을 구현하였다. 즉, 디지털 기술을 이용한 다중 정보은폐에서는 확산코드간에 랜덤성과 직교성을 보장할 수 있는 새로운 코드로써 의사랜덤 코드(Pseudo random code)와 하다마드 행렬(Hadamard matrix)을 상호보완적으로 조합하여 만든 스테고 키(stego key)를 사용하였으며 이를 이용하여 임의의 커버영상(cover image)에 다중의 정보를 은폐시킬 수 있는 새로운 기법을 제시하였다. 이와 같은 방법으로 은폐된 정보는 정보 은폐시 사용된 스테고 키성분이 정확하게 일치될 경우에만 추출될 수 있으므로 불법 사용자가 무한히 발생시킬 수 있는 랜덤시퀀스를 정확하게 재생하는 것은 거의 불가능함으로 강한 비화성을 가지며, 하다마드 행렬의 직교성으로 서로 다른 확산코드간의 상관성이 발생하지 않기 때문에 에러 없는 은폐정보의 추출도 가능하다.

In this paper, a new hybrid opto-digital multiple information hiding and real-time extracting system was suggested and implemented using a volume holographic optical correlator. The multiple information hiding system in which the multiple information can be hided in an arbitrary cover image was digitally implemented by using the combination of pseudo random sequence and Hadamard matrix. In addition, a real-time optical extraction system in which the hided multiple information in a cover image can be extracted in real-time was implemented by using a volume holographic optical correlator. In the VanderLugt-type holographic optical correlator used in this experiment, the multiful matched spatial filters corresponding each of the hided informations were recorded in a photorefractive crystal by using the moving window-based angular multiplexing scheme.

This paper presents a method for facial feature representation and recognition from the Covariance Matrices of the Gabor-filtered images. Gabor filters are a very powerful tool for processing images that respond to different local orientations and wave numbers around points of interest, especially on the local features on the face. This is a very unique attribute needed to extract special features around the facial components like eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose. The Covariance matrices computed on Gabor filtered faces are adopted as the feature representation for face recognition. Geodesic distance measure is used as a matching measure and is preferred for its global consistency over other methods. Geodesic measure takes into consideration the position of the data points in addition to the geometric structure of given face images. The proposed method is invariant and robust under rotation, pose, or boundary distortion. Tests run on random images and also on publicly available JAFFE and FRAV3D face recognition databases provide impressively high percentage of recognition.

이 논문에서 크기의 변화에 강인한 인공물 축출 알고리듬을 제안한다. 인공물은 크기 및 카메라 센서의 특성에 따라 영상에 다양한 크기로 나타난다. 이 논문은 이러한 크기 변화에 강인한 인공물 축출 방법을 제안한다. 우선 LoG(Laplacian of Gaussian)를 이용하여 최적의 크기를 찾아낸다. 이를 이용하여 우리는 이웃한 정보를 포함할 수 있는 MAP-MRF(Maximum A Posterior-Markov Random Field) 레이블링(Labeling) 방법을 기반으로 인공물 축출을 위한 비용함수를 제안하였다. 인공물은 서로 근처에 존재하기 때문이다. 여기서 정보 비용함수(Data cost function)는 방향 히스토그램(Orientation histogram)을 이용하여 정의하였고, 스무딩 비용함수(Smoothing cost function)는 ICM(Iterated Conditional Modes)을 이용하여 정의한다. 최종적으로 이 알고리듬을 위성영상에 적용하여 알고리듬의 성능을 증명한다.
