  • Sensor network has been a hot research topic for the past decade and has moved its phase into using multimedia sensors such as cameras and microphones [1]. Combining many types of sensor data will lead to more accurate and precise information of the environment. However, the use of sensor network data is still limited to closed circumstances. Thus, in this paper, we propose a web-service based framework to deploy multimedia sensor networks. In order to unify different types of sensor data and also to support heterogeneous client applications, we used ROA (Resource Oriented Architecture [2]).

  • The transfer matrix and unsteady cavitation characteristics, cavitation compliance and mass flow gain factor, of cavitating inducer were evaluated by CFD using commercial software. Quasi-steady values of cavitation compliance and mass flow gain factor were obtained first by using steady calculations at various flow rate and inlet cavitation number. Then unsteady calculations were made to determine the transfer matrix and the cavitation characteristics. The results are compared with experiments to show the validity of calculations.

  • The effects of oxidation on the order-disorder transition in NiPt bimetallic alloy crystal have been investigated using in-situ synchrotron x-ray scattering technique. The temperature dependence of the crystal structure and the order parameter were measured during in-situ heating and cooling under vacuum and oxygen environments. The order-disorder transition temperature of NiPt alloy crystals in vacuum was between $615^{\circ}C$ and $627^{\circ}C$. On the other hand under oxygen environment, the transition temperature decreases by about $31^{\circ}C$ after the oxidation. The change of the transition temperature can be explained by the formation of NiO crust on the surface of NiPt crystal, which alters the composition of the Ni and Pt atoms. Since the transition temperature depends sensitively on the Ni-Pt composition, the transition temperature changes as Ni atoms diffuse out to form NiO.

  • Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is employed to train fuzzy-neural networks (FNN), which can be employed as an important building block in real life robot systems, controlled by voice-based commands. The FNN is also trained to capture the user spoken directive in the context of the present performance of the robot system. The system has been successfully employed in a real life situation for navigation of a mobile robot.

  • Conventional disturbance rejection methods have to derive the inverse model of a system. However, the inverse model of n nonholonomic system is not unique, because an inverse it changes depending on initial conditions and desired values. A kind of internal model control (IMC) using feedback error learning is discussed for the motion control of nonholonomic mobile robots in this paper, The present method is different from a conventional IMC whose control system consists of an inverse model, a direct model and a filter. The present disturbance rejection method need not use a direct model, where the remaining two elements are composed of the same inverse model based on neural networks.

  • Nd-Fe-B type powder was sintered using spark plasma sintering method. Fabricated compact sintered at the temperature of $700\;^{\circ}C$, is found to be a composite magnet with Nd-Fe-Co-B and ${\alpha}-Fe$. The compact sintered at $700\;^{\circ}C$ shows slightly low coercivity and large remanent magnetization comparing to the compact sintered at $600^{\circ}C$ due to the formation of ${\alpha}-Fe$ phase, resulting in the large maximum energy product. Maximum energy product tends to decrease with decreasing thickness of sintered compacts below 0.5 mm in thickness.

  • We propose a visible light road-to-vehicle communication system at intersection as one of ITS technique. In this system, the communication between vehicle and a LED traffic light is approached using LED traffic light as a transmitter, and on-vehicle high-speed camera as a receiver. The LEDs in the transmitter are emitted in 500Hz and those emitting LEDs are captured by a high-speed camera for making communication. Here, the luminance value of each LED in the transmitter should be found for consecutive frames to achieve effective communication. For this purpose, first the transmitter should be identified, then it should be tracked for consecutive frames while the vehicle is moving, by processing the images from the high-speed camera. In our previous work, the transmitter was identified by getting the subtraction of two consecutive frames. In this paper, we mainly introduce an algorithm to track the identified transmitter in consecutive frames. Experimental results using appropriate images showed the effectiveness of the proposal.

  • Intraoperative surgical microscope is an essential surgical equipment. However, it has a restriction to classify the retina layers because of the contrast differences. To solve this problem, operators use surgical instrument such as an intraocular mirror. In this case, it has to amputate the patient's eye. In this study, we developed a probe the intraoperative surgical optical coherence tomography. We expect that the developed OCT probe can overcome the limit of OCT and be applied as a real-time surgical tool. In this paper, we demonstrate applicability of the probe through rabbit's experimentation.

  • The effect of carbon dioxide on yeast growth was investigated during the cultivation of pH 5.0 and pH 6.8. by replacing the nitrogen part with carbon dioxide under aerobic conditions. The values of the specific growth rate under pH 5.0 and pH 6.8 conditions became 64.0% and 46.9%, respectively, compared to those before the change in gas composition. This suggests that the effect of carton dioxide was greater pronounced in pH 6.8 than in pH 5.0. The genome-wide transcriptional response to elevated carbon dioxide was examined using a DNA microarray. As for upregulated genes, it was noteworthy that 3 genes were induced upon entry into a stationary phase and 6 genes were involved in stress response. Of 53 downregulated genes, 22 genes were involved in the ribosomal biogenesis and assembly and 5 genes were involved in the lipid metabolism. These facts suggest that carbon dioxide could bring the cell conditions partially to a stationary phase. The ALD6 gene encoding for cytosolic acetaldehyde dehydrogenase was downregulated, which would lead to a lack of cell components for the growth. The downregulation of ALD6 was greater in pH 6.8 than in pH 5.0. consistent with physiological response. This suggests that it might be the most effective factor for growth inhibition.
