Recent development in wireless communication and mobile positioning technologies makes Location-Based Services (LBSs) popular. However, because, in the LBSs, users request a query to database servers by using their exact locations, the location information of the users can be misused by adversaries. Therefore, a mechanism for users' privacy protection is required for the safe use of LBSs by mobile users. For this, we, in this paper, propose a efficient cloaking region creation scheme using Hilbert curves in distributed grid environment, so as to protect users' privacy in LBSs. The proposed scheme generates a minimum cloaking region by analyzing the characteristic of a Hilbert curve and computing the Hilbert curve values of neighboring cells based on it, so that we may create a cloaking region to satisfy K-anonymity. In addition, to reduce network communication cost, we make use of a distributed hash table structure, called Chord. Finally, we show from our performance analysis that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing grid-based cloaking method.

In this paper, we propose two novel detection schemes with low-complexity based on the unified receiver architecture which minimizes a fundamental tradeoff at rate-energy region in SWIPT system. The proposed detection schemes are twofold: The two-stage detection scheme and Euclidean distance combination detection scheme. The two-stage detection scheme detects amplitude information of symbols from rectified signals for energy harvesting. In the sequel, it detects symbols based on phase information of baseband signals for information decoding. The Euclidean distance combination detection scheme detects symbols using linear positive-weighted sum of two metrics: Euclidean distance based on baseband signals for information decoding and Euclidean distance based on rectified signals for energy harvesting. For numerical results, we confirm that the proposed detection scheme can achieve better performance than the conventional scheme in terms of symbol error rate, symbol success rate-energy region and achievable rate-energy region.

In this paper, we propose an automatic extraction algorithm of region of interest(ROI) based on medical x-ray images. The proposed algorithm uses segmentation, feature extraction, and reference image matching to detect lesion sites in the input image. The extracted region is searched for matching lesion images in the reference DB, and the matched results are automatically extracted using the Kalman filter based fitness feedback. The proposed algorithm is extracts the contour of the left hand image for extract growth plate based on the left x-ray input image. It creates a candidate region using multi scale Hessian-matrix based sessionization. As a result, the proposed algorithm was able to split rapidly in 0.02 seconds during the ROI segmentation phase, also when extracting ROI based on segmented image 0.53, the reinforcement phase was able to perform very accurate image segmentation in 0.49 seconds.

Pixel classification is one of basic issues of image processing. The general characteristics of the pixels belonging to various classes are discussed and the radical principles of pixel classification are given. At the same time, a pixel classification scheme based on image information scales is proposed. The proposed method is overcome that computation amount become greater and contents easily get turned. And image directional scales has excellent anti-noise performance. In the result of experiment. good efficiency is showed compare with other methods.

One of the challenging problems in dynamic scene analysis is the correspondence problem. Points and lines have been two major entities for establishing the correspondence among suxcessive frmes and gave rise to discrete approach to dynamic scene analysis. SOme researchers take continuous approach to analyse the motion. There it is usually assumed that some sort of region correspondence has already been established. In this paper, we propose a method based on fuzzy membership function for solving region correspondence problem.

Korea is located in either low or moderate seismicity continental region. It is realized that design codes and underlying design concepts of high seismicity region may not be appropriate to low or moderate seismicity region. In this paper, test results on the seismic response of structures without seismic detailing are reexamined and compared with numerical analysis results. The seismic design concept based on limited ductility is proposed as an alternative seismic design approach in moderate seismicity regions.
