This paper proposes an efficient method for recognizing the fingerprint using the extracted features by adaptive principal component analysis(PCA). The adaptive PCA is implemented by a single-layer neural network for extracting the linear features of fingerprint data. And, the extracted data are transformed into binary data for reducing storage space and transmission time. The proposed method has been applied to recognize the 100 fingerprint data. The simulation results show that the recognitions are all successful and capable of about ${\pm}8^{\circ}$ rotated data.

This paper proposes a new haze removal method for moving image sequence. Since the conventional dark channel prior haze removal method adjusts each color component separately in RGB color space, there can be severe color distortion in the haze removed output image. In order to resolve this problem, this paper proposes a new haze removal scheme that adjusts luminance and saturation components in HLS color space while retaining hue component. Also the conventional dark channel prior haze removal method is developed to obtain best haze removal performance for a single image. Therefore, if it is applied to a moving image sequence, the estimated parameter values change rapidly and the haze removed output image sequence shows unnatural glitter defects. To overcome this problem, a new parameter estimation method using Kalman filter is proposed for moving image sequence. Experimental results demonstrate that the haze removal performance of the proposed method is better than that of the conventional dark channel prior method.

This paper focuses on the interpretation of radiation fluxes from active galactic nuclei. The advantage of positron annihilation spectroscopy over other methods of spectral diagnostics of active galactic nuclei (therefore AGN) is demonstrated. A relationship between regular and random components in both bolometric and spectral composition of fluxes of quanta and particles generated in AGN is found. We consider their diffuse component separately and also detect radiative feedback after the passage of high-velocity cosmic rays and hard quanta through gas-and-dust aggregates surrounding massive black holes in AGN. The motion of relativistic positrons and electrons in such complex systems produces secondary radiation throughout the whole investigated region of active galactic nuclei in form of cylinder with radius R= 400-1000 pc and height H=200-400 pc, thus causing their visible luminescence across all spectral bands. We obtain radiation and electron energy distribution functions depending on the spatial distribution of the investigated bulk of matter in AGN. Radiation luminescence of the non-central part of AGN is a response to the effects of particles and quanta falling from its center created by atoms, molecules and dust of its diffuse component. The cross-sections for the single-photon annihilation of positrons of different energies with atoms in these active galactic nuclei are determined. For the first time we use the data on the change in chemical composition due to spallation reactions induced by high-energy particles. We establish or define more accurately how the energies of the incident positron, emitted ${\gamma}-quantum$ and recoiling nucleus correlate with the atomic number and weight of the target nucleus. For light elements, we provide detailed tables of all indicated parameters. A new criterion is proposed, based on the use of the ratio of the fluxes of ${\gamma}-quanta$ formed in one- and two-photon annihilation of positrons in a diffuse medium. It is concluded that, as is the case in young supernova remnants, the two-photon annihilation tends to occur in solid-state grains as a result of active loss of kinetic energy of positrons due to ionisation down to thermal energy of free electrons. The single-photon annihilation of positrons manifests itself in the gas component of active galactic nuclei. Such annihilation occurs as interaction between positrons and K-shell electrons; hence, it is suitable for identification of the chemical state of substances comprising the gas component of the investigated media. Specific physical media producing high fluxes of positrons are discussed; it allowed a significant reduction in the number of reaction channels generating positrons. We estimate the brightness distribution in the ${\gamma}-ray$ spectra of the gas-and-dust media through which positron fluxes travel with the energy range similar to that recorded by the Payload for Antimatter Matter Exploration and Light-nuclei Astrophysics (PAMELA) research module. Based on the results of our calculations, we analyse the reasons for such a high power of positrons to penetrate through gas-and-dust aggregates. The energy loss of positrons by ionisation is compared to the production of secondary positrons by high-energy cosmic rays in order to determine the depth of their penetration into gas-and-dust aggregations clustered in active galactic nuclei. The relationship between the energy of ${\gamma}-quanta$ emitted upon the single-photon annihilation and the energy of incident electrons is established. The obtained cross sections for positron interactions with bound electrons of the diffuse component of the non-central, peripheral AGN regions allowed us to obtain new spectroscopic characteristics of the atoms involved in single-photon annihilation.

연속 형질(quantitative trait)에 영향을 미치는 유전자를 알아내기 위해 형제 쌍의 자료를 수집하여, 주로 이용되는 Haseman과 Elston (1972)의 최소제곱 회귀검정법으로 분석하는데 이는 단일 형질에 대한 분석법이다. 현실적으로 여러 형질들이 복잡하게 단일유전자 좌위(single locus)와 연관되어 있어 함께 수집하게 되는 경우에는, 이러한 연관된 여러 형질을 동시에 분석하는 유전연관성 검정법(linkage test)이 절실히 필요한 실정이다. Amos 등 (1990)은 주성분(principal component) 선형모형을 이용하여 Haseman과 Elston (1972)방법을 둘 이상의 형질의 다변량 분석법으로 확장시켰다. 그러나 이 검정방법은 통계량의 분포를 알 수 없기에 아직 제 1종 오류가 제대로 통제되지 못하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 다변량 형질 자료의 연관성검정에 있어 단일변량에 대한 비모수 추세검정법을 다변량 자료에 대한 분석법으로 확장시킨 통계량을 사용할 것을 제안한다. Amos 등 (1990)이 제안한 방법과 다변량 추세검정 통계량을 모의실험으로 생성한 연속형 형질자료에 적용하였을 때, 다변량 추세검정 통계량은 Amos 등 (1990) 방법에서의 여러 문제점이 발생되지 않을 뿐만 아니라 모의실험에서 제 1종 오류가 정해진 유의수준에 가까운 것을 확인하였고, 검정적이 더 높음을 볼 수 있었다.

We first sought to clarify the effects of discounted rate, survival rate, and lactation persistency as a component trait of the selection index on net merit, defined as the first five lactation milks and herd life (HL) weighted by 1 and 0.389 (currently used in Japan), respectively, in units of genetic standard deviation. Survival rate increased the relative economic importance of later lactation traits and the first five lactation milk yields during the first 120 months from the start of the breeding scheme. In contrast, reliabilities of the estimated breeding value (EBV) in later lactation traits are lower than those of earlier lactation traits. We then sought to clarify the effects of applying single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) on net merit to improve the reliability of EBV of later lactation traits to maximize their increased economic importance due to increase in survival rate. Net merit, selection accuracy, and HL increased by adding lactation persistency to the selection index whose component traits were only milk yields. Lactation persistency of the second and (especially) third parities contributed to increasing HL while maintaining the first five lactation milk yields compared with the selection index whose only component traits were milk yields. A selection index comprising the first three lactation milk yields and persistency accounted for 99.4% of net merit derived from a selection index whose components were identical to those for net merit. We consider that the selection index comprising the first three lactation milk yields and persistency is a practical method for increasing lifetime milk yield in the absence of data regarding HL. Applying SNP to the second- and third-lactation traits and HL increased net merit and HL by maximizing the increased economic importance of later lactation traits, reducing the effect of first-lactation milk yield on HL (genetic correlation ($r_G$) = -0.006), and by augmenting the effects of the second- and third-lactation milk yields on HL ($r_G$ = 0.118 and 0.257, respectively).

This paper presents the analysis method for the torque characteristic of the 1-phase induction motor considering space harmonics in the air gap. The equivalent circuit method is used, where the circuit constants are obtained by classic theory. In addition, the space harmonic components in air gap magneto motive force are analyzed and added to the equivalent circuit to obtain accurate torque characteristics in low speed regions. Each torque component due to the harmonics is calculated and the total torque characteristic is obtained and compared with the measurement result.

Cooled EGR is an effective method for the reduction of NOx from a diesel engine and an EGR Cooler is the key component of the system. High efficiency, low pressure loss and compactness are required for the EGR Cooler. To meet these requirements, new geometric tube must be developed. In this paper, a full size EGR cooler test bench has been developed to validate the CFD flow and heat transfer models. Fluid temperature and pressure drop measurements are provided. fillet temperature is $200^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$, and flow rates vary from 0.008 kg/sec to 0.019 kg/sec. The gas flow and heat transfer in a single tube cooler have been studied using computational fluid dynamics(CFD). Analysis has been carried out in a single tube with a plain tube and six spirally enhanced tubes of varying pitch to depth ratio(p/e).

In this paper, a PV multi-string PCS with a grid-connection is proposed. An improved MPPT algorithm for the PV multi-string PCS is suggested. Each PV string has its own MPP tracker and the proposed MPPT algorithm prevents LMPP tracking due to power ripple. In the PV PCS with single-phase inverter has a large current ripple at twice the grid frequency. The current ripple reduction algorithm without external component is suggested. Also, this paper proposes a simple control method to achieve sharing of the PV string voltage and current among the interleaved parallel boost converters. All algorithms and controllers are implemented on a single-chip microcontroller. Experimental results obtained on a 3kW prototype show high performance of the proposed PV multi-string PCS.

In this paper, a parallel operation of two single-phase GTO PWM converters is presented. The current ripples on the primary side of the transformer can be much reduced by shifting one modulation period from the other one by a half period. Also, a simple power factor control scheme is presented by which the reactive component of converter input current is controlled. Simulations and experimental results for a laboratory system confirm the validity of the purposed algorithm.
