  • In this paper, we presents a new disparity map refinement algorithm using statistical characteristics of disparity map and edge information. The proposed algorithm generate a refined disparity map using disparity maps which are obtained from area and feature-based Stereo Matching by selecting a disparity value of edge point based on the statistics of both disparity maps. Experimental results on aerial stereo image show the better results than conventional fusion algorithms in the disparity error. This algorithm can be applied to the reconstruction of building image from the high resolution remote sensing data.

  • Among the many studies of carbon-based nanomaterials, carbon-based dots (CDs) have attracted considerable interest owing to their large surface area, intrinsic low-toxicity, excellent biocompatibility, high solubility, and low-cost with environmentally friendly routes, as well as their ability for modification with other nanomaterials. CDs have several applications in biosensing, photocatalysis, bioimaging, and nanomedicine. In addition, the fascinating electrochemical properties of CDs, including high active surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, electrocatalytic activity, high porosity, and adsorption capability, make them potential candidates for electrochemical sensing materials. This paper reviews the recent developments and synthesis of CDs and their composites for the proposed electrochemical sensing platforms. The electrochemical principles and future perspective and challenges of electrochemical biosensors are also discussed based on CDs-nanocomposites.

  • As even small features can be classified as high resolution imagery, urban remote sensing is regarded as one of the important application fields in time of wide use of the commercialized high resolution satellite imageries. In this study, we have analyzed the variogram properties of high resolution imagery, which was obtained in urban area through the simple modeling and applied to the real image. Based on the grasped variogram characteristics, we have tried to decomposed two high-resolution imagery such as IKONOS and QuickBird reducing window size until the unique variogram that urban feature has come out and then been indexed. Modeling results will be used as the fundamental data for variographic analysis in urban area using high resolution imagery later on. Index map also can be used for determining urban complexity or land-use classification, because the index is influenced by the feature size.

  • The Han River is divided into North and South Korea by NLL(Northern Limit Line) and its area has been blocked by CCL(Civil Control Line) since the Korean War in 1950. Satellite remote sensing, therefore, is uniquely suited to monitoring bar transformation in the region. In river with bar, the characteristics of its physical conditions have a close relationship with bar morphology. In this paper, a monitoring approach of bar transformation in the Han River Estuary is presented using RADARSAT/SAR images from 2000 to 2005 and spatial patterns of bar morphology are presented. it could be said that in the estuary vegetated area and natural levees are developed well, but bars are shifted after an event like a flood. It is also showed that suspended solids such as silt transported through the estuary could contribute highly to a sedimentation environment around Incheon.

  • Erosion and landslide cause serious damage to forest areas. As a consequence, partial or complete destruction of vegetation occurs, which leads to many cascading problems. In this study, an attempt has been made to identify the forest areas, which are under different risk categories of erosion and landslide, in part of Eastern Ghats of Tamil Nadu. Relevantthematic maps were generated from satellite data, topographical maps, primary and secondary data and weights to each map were assigned appropriately. Weighted overlay analysis was carried out to identify the erosionprone forest areas. The result of erosion and landslide prone model reveals that 4712 ha(17%) of forest area is under high risk category and 15879 ha(58.65%) isunder medium risk category. The results of spatial modeling would be very much useful to the forest officials and conservationist to plan for effective conservation.

  • The successful launch of Arirang satellites allow the acquisition of high resolution satellite imagery of Korean territory and enables the transition from the conventional cultivation area survey method to new image based methods adopted in advanced nations. In this study, we suggested reasonable sizes of the primary sampling unit and the secondary sampling unit for the satellite imagery based sampling design in 8 provinces preselected for this research. The PSU size was determined mainly in consideration of intracorrelation that shows the degree of homogeneity within each cluster and the efficiency of the image process. For the SSU size, we considered the relative standard error and the differences between the land cover maps produced by the Ministry of Environment and the satellite imagery processed by the National Statistical Office.

  • 무선 센서 네트워크의 노드들은 소형으로써 배터리로 작동하고, 사용자로부터 원거리 또는 산악지대와 같이 배터리 교체가 쉽지 않은 곳에 배치되기 때문에 한정된 에너지를 효율적으로 사용하는 기술이 매우 중요하다. 이를 위해서 같은 지역에 대해 중첩되게 센싱하고 있는 노드들이 있다면 적정한 수의 노드만 활동하게 하고 나머지는 활동하지 않게 함으로써 노드들의 에너지 사용 효율을 높일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 센서 노드가 유효센싱범위(ESA, Effective Sensing Area)를 계산하여 threshold초과 여부에 따라 working/sleeping하도록 함으로써 중첩되는 센싱범위를 최소화 하고 전체 센싱 커버리지를 유지시키면서 네트워크 수명을 증가시키는 스케줄링 프로토콜을 제안한다.

  • This paper reports the principle, design, configuration, and test results of the fiber optic security system using multimode fiber. In this system, optical fiber works as a sensing element. The length of sensing element may be from several meters to several killometers. Physical principle of this system is the dependence of interferometric pattern on the end of the fiber on mechanical perturbation in the area, where this fiber is situated. Near and far field patterns of the output light for multimode fiber are speckle pattern. A number of speckles on the fiber depends on mode numbers. Light intensity in each point of the fiber end depends on phase difference of modes. Finally we introduced a "Fiber Optic Security System based on Multimode" Fiber which we developed, it may be available in the field of the important area and building.

  • For a conventional power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), there is a trade-off between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage. To overcome this trade-off, a super-junction trench MOSFET (TMOSFET) structure is suggested; within this structure, the ability to sense the temperature distribution of the TMOSFET is very important since heat is generated in the junction area, thus affecting its reliability. Generally, there are two types of temperature-sensing structures-diode and resistive. In this paper, a diode-type temperature-sensing structure for a TMOSFET is designed for a brushless direct current motor with on-resistance of $96m{\Omega}{\cdot}mm^2$. The temperature distribution for an ultra-low on-resistance power MOSFET has been analyzed for various bonding schemes. The multi-bonding and stripe bonding cases show a maximum temperature that is lower than that for the single-bonding case. It is shown that the metal resistance at the source area is non-negligible and should therefore be considered depending on the application for current driving capability.

  • Damage to forest trees, caused by wildfire, changes their spectral reflectance signature. This factor led to the initiation of a research project at the Remote Sensing & GIS Laboratory, Kookmin University, to determine if multispectral data acquired by IKONOS could provide fire scar and bum severity mapping. This paper will present detail mapping of burned areas in the eastern coast of Korea with IKONOS imagery. In addition, a single post-burn Landsat-7 ETM+ data was used to compare with IKONOS, the study area. Burn severity map based on IKONOS image was found to be affected by strong topographic illumination effects in the mountain forest. But it has better the delineation of the bum-scarred area. In this study the NDVI was analyzed for geometric illumination conditions influenced by topography(slop, aspect and elevation) and shadow(solar elevation and azimuth angle).
