A CMOS Voltage-Controlled Oscillator(VCO) for application at temperature stable system is designed. The VCO consists of bandgap voltage reference circuit, comparator, and voltage-to-current converter and the VCO has a temperature stable characteristics. The difference between simulated and calculated values is less than about 5% in output characteristics when the input voltage range is from 1V to 3.25V. The CMOS VCO has error less than about $\pm$0.85% in the temperature range from $-25^{\circ}C$ to $75^{\circ}C$.

The present paper investigates the influence of the orientation of the ground-motion reference axes, the seismic incident angle and the seismic intensity level on the inelastic response of asymmetric reinforced concrete buildings. A single storey asymmetric building is analyzed by nonlinear dynamic analyses under twenty bi-directional ground motions. The analyses are performed for many angles of incidence and four seismic intensity levels. Moreover three different pairs of the horizontal accelerograms corresponding to the input seismic motion are considered: a) the recorded accelerograms, b) the corresponding uncorrelated accelerograms, and c) the completely correlated accelerograms. The nonlinear response is evaluated by the overall structural damage index. The results of this study demonstrate that the inelastic seismic response depends on the orientation of the ground-motion reference axes, since the three individual pairs of accelerograms corresponding to the same ground motion (recorded, uncorrelated and completely correlated) can cause different structural damage level for the same incident angle. Furthermore, the use of the recorded accelerograms as seismic input does not always lead to the critical case of study. It is also shown that there is not a particular seismic incident angle or range of angles that leads to the maximum values of damage index regardless of the seismic intensity level or the ground-motion reference axes.

The color reproduction of digital still camera does not, in general, match those of the final output device. Because color gamut of these devices is different, it is therefore necessary to take account of a way to match. The way uses the optimized profile to output device an image. This paper proposed a way to create the input profile of digital still camera for standardization soft proofing process. The results of proposed way showed that for input profiles equivalent, good results relatively. In this paper, an experiment was done where the illumination sources used as the standard illumination 5200K and illuminated at a $45^{\circ}$ angle in the best illumination efficiently. The white balance was in mode 'custom' : aperture F11, exposure time 1/60s, ISO50, focal length 80mm. The images were exported and saved as 16bit RGB TIFF(AdobeRGB, sRGB, ProphotoRGB) images. To do the test, the RGB values of the RGB TIFF images are processed through the ICC input profile to arrive at processed $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ values. A profiling tool such as ProfileMaker 5.0 and Monacoprofile 4.8 are used to do this. The processed $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ values are compared to the reference $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ values and these two values are used to calculate a ${\Delta}E{^*}_{ab}$.

We propose a character recognition system to extract the component reference names from printed circuit boards (PCBs) automatically. The names are written in horizontal, vertical, reverse-horizontal and reverse-vertical directions. Also various symbols and figures are included in PCBs. To recognize the character and orientation effectively, we divide the recognizer into two stages: character classification stage and orientation classification stage. The character classification stage consists of two sub-recognizers and a verifier. The rotaion-invarint features of input pattern are then used to identify the character independent of orientation. Each recognizer is implemented as a neural network, and the weight values of verifier are obtained by genetic algorithm. In the orientation classification stage, the input pattern is compared with reference patterns to identify the orientation. Experimental results are presented to verify the usefulness of the proposed system.

The structure should be designed to be safe to any direction of earthquake input. However, the reference axes whereby the structure is analyzed and designed against earthquake may influence the design member forces. This study is concerned with the effect of the choice of the reference axes on the seismic design member forces. The analytical results on member forces using the principal axes suggested by Wilson and the global axes generally adopted in design offices show that the values of member forces by the principal axes be about $15\%$ smaller than those by the global axes in the example structure.

MODIS LAI product has been one of key variable for analyzing the quantitative aspects of terrestrial ecology at global scale. This study was designed to validate MODIS global LAI product for regional application. To examine the quality of MODIS LAI data, we developed a reference LAI surface that was derived by relating the ground LAI measurements to Landsat ETM+ reflectance. The study area, the Kwangneung Experiment Forest in Korea, covers mixed deciduous and coniferous species of temperate forest. Ground measurements of LAI were conducted at 30 sample plots by using a photo-optical instrument during the growing season of 2002. Ground measured LAI data were then related to the ETM+ reflectance to produce a continuous map of LAI surface over the study area. From the comparison between the MODIS LAI and the reference LAI, it was found that the MODIS LAI values were slightly higher at the forestland. Considering the limitations of producing the reference LAI surface and the uncertainty of the input variable for the MODIS LAI algorithm, such small discrepancy mal not be significant.

This paper proposes a signature using dominant singular values for video sequence matching. By considering the input image as matrix A, a partition procedure is first performed to separate the matrix into non-overlapping sub-images of a fixed size. The SVD(Singular Value Decomposition) process decomposes matrix A into a singular value-singular vector factorization. As a result, singular values are obtained for each sub-image, then k dominant singular values which are sufficient to discriminate between different images and are robust to image size variation, are chosen and normalized as the signature for each block in an image frame for matching between the reference video clip and the query one. Experimental results show that the proposed video signature has a better performance than ordinal signature in ROC curve.

This study examines how specific technology from Information and Communications Technology (ICT)-which plays a critical role in increasing productivity by promoting a spread of technology across the society though the use of big data, mobile or wearable devices-impacts of the productivity of society and productivity of added values, respectively. The impact of technology was studied from the perspective of efficiency levels of input. In order to provide an analysis, we have categorized ICT into 16 specific technologies and have set the number of companies and number of employees each as an input factor while setting the respective output and the output of added values as an output factor. Afterwards, we have applied data envelopment analysis (DEA) which is a form of nonparametric frontier analysis and measured the productivity and efficiency of added values for each technology. According to the analysis results, there were 2 technologies by the CRS standards, and 3 technologies by the VRS standards that showed relative efficiency levels. We have also presented some efficiency improvement strategies for specific technologies that revealed relative inefficiency and offered a reference set and projection point. In addition, we provide an analysis on scale efficiencies (SE), diminishing returns to scale (DRS), and increasing returns to scale (IRS) of each ICT.

There have been various cohesion measurements studied considering reference relation among attributes and methods in a class. Generally, these cohesion measurement are camed out in one class. If the range of reference relation considered are extended from one class to two classes, we could find out the reference relation between two classes. Tn this paper, we proposed a neural network to determine the method location. Neural network is effective to predict output value from input data not to be included in training and generalize after training input and output pattern repeatedly. Learning vector is generated with 30-dimensional input vector and one target binary values of method location in a constraint that there are two classes which have less than or equal to 5 attributes and methods The result of the proposed neural network is about 95% in cross-validation and 88% in testing.
