A non-invasive respiratory gated radiotherapy system like those based on external anatomic motion gives better comfortableness to patients than invasive system on treatment. However, higher correlation between the external and internal anatomic motion is required to increase the effectiveness of non-invasive respiratory gated radiotherapy. Both of invasive and non-invasive methods need to track the internal anatomy with the higher precision and rapid response. Especially, the non-invasive method has more difficulty to track the target position successively because of using only image processing. So we developed the system to track the motion for a non-invasive respiratory gated system to accurately find the dynamic position of internal structures such as the diaphragm and tumor. The respiratory organ motion tracking apparatus consists of an image capture board, a fluoroscopy system and a processing computer. After the image board grabs the motion of internal anatomy through the fluoroscopy system, the computer acquires the organ motion tracking data by image processing without any additional physical markers. The patients breathe freely without any forced breath control and coaching, when this experiment was performed. The developed pattern-recognition software could extract the target motion signal in real-time from the acquired fluoroscopic images. The range of mean deviations between the real and acquired target positions was measured for some sample structures in an anatomical model phantom. The mean and max deviation between the real and acquired positions were less than 1mm and 2mm respectively with the standardized movement using a moving stage and an anatomical model phantom. Under the real human body, the mean and maximum distance of the peak to trough was measured 23.5mm and 55.1mm respectively for 13 patients' diaphragm motion. The acquired respiration profile showed that human expiration period was longer than the inspiration period. The above results could be applied to respiratory-gated radiotherapy.

This paper describes on the real-time tracking of ship's dynamic behavior by AIS information in the coastal waters. The AIS data was received at a land station by using the antenna of AIS receiver mounted on the rooftop of the laboratory, Pukyong National University (PKNU), Busan, Korea, and stored as a NMEA format of serial output sentence of VDM(VHF Data-Link Message) and displayed on the ENC(Electronic Navigational Chart) of a PC-based ECDIS. In this study, the AIS receiver was mainly used to obtain the dynamic information that is necessary to evaluate and track the movement situation of training ship "KAYA" of PKNU in the coastal waters. The change of position with time for the ship turning under the rudder angle of port $30^{\circ}$ was correctly tracked with the turning circle of 940 m in diameter on the ENC of a PC-based ECDIS. Then, the dynamic information of the AIS system was updated every 6.29 seconds under the turning situation for the speed of 10.9 knots and every 21.65 seconds under the situation running at the speed of 11.05 knots on the straight line route of $155^{\circ}$, respectively. In case of AIS target tracking in the inshore zone behind large topographical obstructions, such as mountain and apartment buildings, the update rate of dynamic information was irregularly changed by the existence of land obstacles. However, the position tracking by AIS information under the situation existing no sea obstructions was achieved in real or near real-time and the instant presentation of course alternations for the ship was correctly monitored by using a PC-based ECDIS. From these results, we concluded that the PC-based ECDIS technology and methodology combined with the AIS information can be easily extended and applied to the surveillance and management for the fishing operation of fishing vessels in the coastal zone and in the EEZ fishing grounds.

In recent years, Tracking-Learning-Detection(TLD) system has been widely used as a detection and tracking algorithm for vision sensors. While conventional algorithms are vulnerable to occlusion, and changes in illumination and appearances, TLD system is capable of robust tracking by conducting tracking, detection, and learning in real time. However, the detection and tracking algorithms of TLD system utilize rotation-variant features, and the margin of tracking error becomes greater when an object makes a full out-of-plane rotation. Thus, we propose a rotation-invariant TLD system(RI-TLD). we propose a simplified average orientation histogram and rotation matrix for a rotation inference algorithm. Experimental results with various tracking tests demonstrate the robustness and efficiency of the proposed system.

최근 GPS(Global Positioning System)와 무선통신 기술을 이용하여 화물의 위치정보를 파악하는 것이 용이해지고 있다. 해운물류산업에서는 글로벌화가 가속화됨에 따라 화물을 실은 선박의 입출항 확인, 물류차량의 물류거점별 진입여부 등 화물의 가시성, 추적성, 실시간 정보제공의 필요성이 더욱 커지고 있다. 이러한 위치정보를 무선통신기술을 이용하여 물류주체에게 제공함으로써 공급사슬을 효율적으로 운영하고, 물류비용을 줄일 수 있다. 이전의 논문에서 GPS 데이터를 이용한 소프트웨어적인 방법으로 GPS 기반의 글로벌 위치추적 시스템을 제안한 바 있다. 그러나 이전 시스템에서는 실시간 위치이동 정보를 파악하기에 미흡한 문제점이 있었으며, 경도, 위도 좌표에 따른 글로벌 물류거점 위치를 신속하게 검색 및 조회하는 연구가 미비했었다. 따라서, 이 논문에서는 실시간으로 해운물류 과정의 화물 위치를 파악하고 GPS 좌표에 따른 물류거점을 신속하게 검색할 수 있는 보완된 위치추적 시스템을 제안한다.

The outdoor antenna servo system is subject to has significant torque disturbances from wind pressures and gusts on the antenna structures, as well as bearing and aerodynamic frictions. This control system should provide a sharp directivity in spite of the environmental disturbances and internal uncertainties. Therefore, the implementation of a real-time controller is necessary for the precise generation of the reference signal and robust tracking performance. In this paper, the discrete-time controller for the quick tracking of a target communication satellite is designed by applying the sampled-data $H_{\infty}$ control theory along with the reference signal generated by an improved conventional step-tracking algorithm. The sampled-data $H_{\infty}$controller demonstrates superior robustness for the longer sampling period when compared with a simple PID controller.

본 논문에서는 무대에서의 방송용 카메라를 위한 자동 객체추적 시스템을 구현한다. 객체추적을 위해서 Open-CV 기반의 파이썬 프로그램을 탑재한 PC, 라즈베리파이 3, 모바일 장치를 사용한다. 영상 객체추적 방법으로는 mean-shift, CAMshift, GMM을 이용한 백그라운드 모델링, SURF를 이용한 템플레이트 기반 추적, CMT, TLD 등의 방법들이 있다. CAMshift 알고리즘은 고속 및 성능의 강인함으로 실시간 추적에 효율적이지만, 본 논문에서는 CMT 알고리즘을 이용한 방송용 카메라의 영상 객체추적 시스템을 구현한다. 이것은 정적 및 적응형 일치성 때문에 최적의 영상 추적 방법이다. 제안된 시스템은 무대에서의 실시간 연속적인 객체추적을 위한 효율적이고 강인한 영상 추적 시스템에 잘 응용될 수 있다.

This paper describes preliminary results we have obtained in developing a computer vision system based on active IR illumination for real time gaze tracking for interactive graphic display. Unlike most of the existing gaze tracking techniques, which often require assuming a static head to work well and require a cumbersome calibration process fur each person, our gaze tracker can perform robust and accurate gaze estimation without calibration and under rather significant head movement. This is made possible by a new gaze calibration procedure that identifies the mapping from pupil parameters to screen coordinates using the Generalized Regression Neural Networks (GRNN). With GRNN, the mapping does not have to be an analytical function and head movement is explicitly accounted for by the gaze mapping function. Furthermore, the mapping function can generalize to other individuals not used in the training. The effectiveness of our gaze tracker is demonstrated by preliminary experiments that involve gaze-contingent interactive graphic display.
