본 논문에서는 SR(Super-Resolution)을 계산하는데 필요한 데이터를 효율적으로 분류하고 분할하여 빠르게 SR연산을 가능하게 하는 쿼드트리 기반 최적화 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 입력 데이터로 사용하는 연기 데이터를 다운스케일링(Downscaling)하여 쿼드트리 연산 소요 시간을 감소시키며, 이때 연기의 밀도를 이진화함으로써, 다운스케일링 과정에서 밀도가 손실되는 문제를 피한다. 학습에 사용된 데이터는 COCO 2017 Dataset이며, 인공신경망은 VGG19 기반 네트워크를 사용한다. 컨볼루션 계층을 거칠 때 데이터의 손실을 막기 위해 잔차(Residual)방식과 유사하게 이전 계층의 출력 값을 더해주며 학습한다. 결과적으로 제안하는 방법은 이전 결과 기법에 비해 약15~18배 정도의 속도향상을 얻었다.

본 논문에서는 희소깊이영상과 컬러영상을 이용해 조밀한 깊이영상을 추정하는 깊이 완성(depth completion)을 수행하기위해 최근접 이웃 커널을 추정하는 방식의 네트워크를 제안한다. 회귀방식의 딥러닝 네트워크는 일반적으로 값을 직접 예측하는 것보다 기본 값에 더해질 잔차를 추정하는 방식이 더욱 효율적이다. 본 논문에서는 최근접 이웃 커널을 입력영상에 적용하여 추정하고자 하는 픽셀의 인근 픽셀에서 값을 가져와 기본 값으로 사용하고, 해당 값의 잔차를 회귀방식으로 추정하는 네트워크를 설계했다. 이러한 방식으로 여러 SOTA 알고리즘 대비 좋은 성능을 나타냈고, 특히 이와 유사한 방식인 Plane-residual net 보다 높은 성능을 보여준다.

최근 딥러닝의 발전에 따라 단일 이미지 초해상도 분야에 좋은 성과를 보여주고 있다. 그러나 보다 더 높은 성능을 획득하기 위해 네트워크의 깊이 및 파라미터의 수가 크게 증가하였고, 모바일 및 엣지 디바이스에 원활하게 적용되기 위하여 딥러닝 모델 경량화의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 초해상도 모델 중 하나인 EDSR(Enhanced Deep Residual Network)에 대조 학습 기반 지식 전이를 적용한 경량화 기법을 제안한다. 실험 결과 제안한 지식 전이 기법이 기존의 다른 지식 증류 기법보다 향상된 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

The efficient node energy utilization is one of important performance factors in wireless sensor networks because sensor nodes operate with limited battery power. To extend the lifetime of the wireless sensor networks, maintaining balanced power consumption between sensor nodes is more important than reducing each energy consumption of the sensor node in the network. In this paper, we proposed a cluster formation algorithm to extend the lifetime of the networks and to maintain a balanced energy consumption of nodes. To obtain it, we add a tiny slot in a round frame, which enables to exchange the residual energy messages between the base station (BS). cluster heads, and nodes. The performance of the proposed protocol has been examined and evaluated with the NS 2 simulator. As a result of simulation, we have confirmed that our proposed algorithm show the better performance in terms of lifetime than LEACH. Consequently, our proposed protocol can effectively extend the network lifetime without other critical overhead and performance degradation.

One of the objectives of research on routing methods in wireless sensor networks is maximizing the energy life of sensor nodes that have limited energy. In this study, we tried to even energy use in a wireless sensor network by giving a weight to the transition probability of ACS(Ant Colony System), which is commonly used to find the optimal path, based on the amount of energy in a sensor and the distance of the sensor from the sink. The proposed method showed improvement by 46.80% on the average in energy utility in comparison with representative routing method GPSR (Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing), and its residual energy after operation for a specific length of time was 6.7% more on the average than that in ACS.

"Wind and Ports" is a European project that has been carried out since 2009 to handle wind forecast in port areas through an integrated system made up of an extensive in-situ wind monitoring network, the numerical simulation of wind fields, the statistical analysis of wind climate, and algorithms for medium-term (1-3 days) and short term (0.5-2 hours) wind forecasting. The in-situ wind monitoring network, currently made up of 22 ultrasonic anemometers, provides a unique opportunity for detecting high resolution thunderstorm records and studying their dominant characteristics relevant to wind engineering with special concern for wind actions on structures. In such a framework, the wind velocity of thunderstorms is firstly decomposed into the sum of a slowly-varying mean part plus a residual fluctuation dealt with as a non-stationary random process. The fluctuation, in turn, is expressed as the product of its slowly-varying standard deviation by a reduced turbulence component dealt with as a rapidly-varying stationary Gaussian random process with zero mean and unit standard deviation. The extraction of the mean part of the wind velocity is carried out through a moving average filter, and the effect of the moving average period on the statistical properties of the decomposed signals is evaluated. Among other aspects, special attention is given to the thunderstorm duration, the turbulence intensity, the power spectral density and the integral length scale. Some noteworthy wind velocity ratios that play a crucial role in the thunderstorm loading and response of structures are also analyzed.

As wireless network technology has advanced, demands for multimedia contents through mobile environment have tendered to upward. Since network situation is changing every moment and types of user terminals are diverse, it is difficult for a content provider to consider network situation and type of user terminal to provide multimedia contents. As one solution, transcoding techniques have been proposed, but those have much complexity. In this paper, in order to reduce computational complexity, we propose a fast mode decision using input modes, motion vectors, and residual energies which are obtained from input bitstream for 2:1 down-scaling spatial transcoding application. The proposed method reduces processing time in mode decision by restricting possible mode types based on input information. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves about 2.66 times improvement in encoding time compared to the normal encoding process while the PSNR is degraded by about 0.04dB, and bit-rate is increased by 1.6%.

Because WSNs operate with limited resources of sensor nodes, its life is extended by cluster-based routing methods. In this study, we use data on direction, distance, density and residual energy in order to maximize the energy efficiency of cluster-based routing methods. Through this study, we expect to minimize the frequency of isolated nodes when selecting a new cluster head autonomously using information on the direction of the upper cluster head, and to reduce energy consumption by switching sensor nodes, which are included in both of the new cluster and the previous cluster and thus do not need to update information, into the sleep mode and updating information only for newly included sensor nodes at the setup phase using distance data. Furthermore, we enhance overall network efficiency by implementing secure and energy-efficient communication through key management robust against internal and external attacks in cluster-based routing techniques. This study suggests the modified cluster head selection scheme which uses the conserved energy in the steady-state phase by reducing unnecessary communications of unchanged nodes between selected cluster head and previous cluster head in the setup phase, and thus prolongs the network lifetime and provides secure and equal opportunity for being cluster head.

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have recently gained increased interest due to the widespread use of smart mobile devices. Group communication applications, serving for better cooperation between subsets of business members, become more significant in the context of MANETs. Multicast routing mechanisms are very useful communication techniques for such group-oriented applications. This paper deals with multicast routing problems in terms of stability and scalability, using the concept of stable core. We propose LMRSC (Lightweight Multicast Routing Based on Stable Core), a lightweight multicast routing technique for MANETs, in order to avoid periodic flooding of the source messages throughout the network, and to increase the duration of multicast routes. LMRSC establishes and maintains mesh architecture for each multicast group member by dividing the network into several zones, where each zone elects the most stable node as its core. Node residual energy and node velocity are used to calculate the node stability factor. The proposed algorithm is simulated by using NS-2 simulation, and is compared with other multicast routing mechanisms: ODMRP and PUMA. Packet delivery ratio, multicast route lifetime, and control packet overhead are used as performance metrics. These metrics are measured by gradual increase of the node mobility, the number of sources, the group size and the number of groups. The simulation performance results indicate that the proposed algorithm outperforms other mechanisms in terms of routes stability and network density.
