객체기반 영상분류를 위한 영상분할에 있어서 중요한 요소로는 분할축척(Scale), 분광 정보(Color), 공간 정보(Shape) 등이 있으며 공간 정보에 해당하는 공간 변수는 평활도(Smoothness)와 조밀도(Compactness)가 있다. 이들 가중치의 선택이 최종적으로 객체기반 영상분류의 결과를 좌우하게 된다. 본 연구는 객체기반 영상분류의 준비 과정이라 할 수 있는 영상분할에 있어서 다양한 가중치를 적용을 통하여 영상을 분할하였다. 영상분할을 위해 적용한 가중치는 10, 20, 30의 분할축척(Scale)과 분광 정보(Color)와 공간 정보(Shape)간의 가중치 조합, 공간 변수인 평활도(Smoothness)와 조밀도(Compactness)간의 가중치 조합을 사용하였다. 각 가중치 조합을 통하여 분할된 영상의 분석은 Moran's I 와 객체 내부 분산(Intrasegment Variance)을 이용하여 분석하였다. 각 객체간의 상관관계 분석을 위하여 Moran's I를 계산하였으며 분류된 지역의 동질성을 분석하기 위하여 객체 면적을 고려한 객체 내부 분산(Intrasegment Variance)값을 계산하였다. Moran's I 가 낮은 값을 가질수록 객체 간의 공간상관관계가 낮아지므로 이웃 객체간의 이질성은 높아지며 객체 내부 분산(Intrasegment Variance)이 낮은 값을 가질수록 지역간의 동질성은 높아지게 된다. Moran's I 와 객체 내부 분산(Intrasegment Variance)의 조합을 통하여 객체기반 영상분류 시 가장 높은 분류 정확도가 예상되는 밴드별 영상분할 가중치를 얻을 수 있다.

In this paper, we present a comparative study of spatial domain features for writer identification and verification with different ink width conditions. The existing methods give high error rates, when comparing two handwritten images with different pen types. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to design the feature with different ink width conditions. To address this problem, contour based features were extracted using a chain code method. To improve accuracy at higher levels, we considered histograms of chain code and variance in bins of histogram of chain code as features to discriminate handwriting samples. The system was trained and tested for 1,000 writers with two samples using different writing instruments. The feature performance is tested on our newly created dataset of 4,000 samples. The experimental results show that the histogram of chain code feature is good compared to other methods with false acceptance rate of 11.67%, false rejection rate of 36.70%, average error rates of 24.18%, and average verification accuracy of 75.89% on our new dataset. We also studied the effect of amount of text and dataset size on verification accuracy.

In this investigation, a wavelet transform analysis was used to decompose beta-radiographic formation images into spectral and spatial components. Conventional formation analysis may use spectral analysis, based on Fourier transformation or variance vs. zone size, to describe the grammage distribution of features such as flocs, streaks and mean fiber orientation. However, these methods have limited utility for the analysis of statistically stationary data sets where variance is not uniform with position, e.g. paper machine CD profiles (especially those that contain streaks). A continuous wavelet transform was used to analyze formation data arrays obtained from radiographic imaging of handsheets and cross machine paper samples. The response of the analytical method to grammage, floc size distribution, mean fiber orientation an sensitivity to feature localization were assessed. From wavelet analysis, the change in scale of grammage variation as a function of position was used to demonstrate regular and isolated differences in the formed structure.

The estimation of key soil properties and subsequent quantitative assessment of the associated uncertainties has always been an important issue in geotechnical engineering. It is well recognized that soil properties vary spatially as a result of depositional and post-depositional processes. The stochastic nature of spatially varying soil properties can be treated as a random field. A practical statistical approach that can be used to systematically model various sources of uncertainty is presented in the context of reliability analysis of slope stability Newly developed expressions for probabilistic characterization of soil properties incorporate sampling and measurement errors, as well as spatial variability and its reduced variance due to spatial averaging. Reliability analyses of the probability of slope failure using the different statistical representations of soil properties show that the incorporation of spatial correlation and conditional simulation leads to significantly lower probability of failure than obtained using simple random variable approach.

Large-scale vortical structure of a turbulent separation bubble affected by unsteady wake is essential to understand flow mechanisms in various fluid devices. A spoked-wheel type of wake generator provides unsteady wake, which modifies the turbulent separation bubble significantly by changing rotation directions and passing frequencies. A detailed mechanism of vortex shedding from the separation bubble with unsteady wake is analyzed by taking a conditional average with spatial box filtering, which spatially integrates measured signals at pre-determined wavelength. A convecting nature of the large-scale vortical structure is analyzed carefully. Spatial evolution of the large-scale vortical structure with frequency variance is also exemplified.

Spatial estimation of environmental variables has been regarded as an important preliminary procedure for decision-making. A minimum variance criterion, which has often been adopted in traditional kriging algorithms, does not always guarantee the optimal estimates for subsequent decision-making processes. In this paper, a geostatistical framework is illustrated that consists of uncertainty modeling via stochastic simulation and risk modeling based on loss functions for the selection of optimal estimates. Loss functions that quantify the impact of choosing any estimate different from the unknown true value are linked to geostatistical simulation. A hybrid loss function is especially presented to account for the different impact of over- and underestimation of different land-use types. The loss function-specific estimates that minimize the expected loss are chosen as optimal estimates. The applicability of the geostatistical framework is demonstrated and discussed through a case study of copper mapping.

Model-based methods are generally used for small area estimation. Recently Shin and Lee (2003) suggested a method which used spatial correlations between areas for data set including some auxiliary variables. However in case of absence of auxiliary variables, Direct estimator is used. Even though direct estimator is unbiased, the large variance of the estimator restricts the use for small area estimation. In this paper, we suggest new estimators which take into account spatial correlation when auxiliary variables are not available. We compared Direct estimator and the newly suggested estimators using MSE, MAE and MB.

In this paper, we study the CCD(Clustering with Circular Distance) and the COD(Clustering with Obstructed Distance) problems to be considered when objects are being clustered in a circularly search space and a search space with the presence of obstacles. We also propose a now clustering algorithm for clustering efficiently objects that the insertion or the deletion is occurring frequently in multi-dimensional search space. The distance function for solving the CCD and COD Problems is defined in the Proposed clustering algorithm. This algorithm is included a clustering method to create clusters that have a high spatial locality by minimum computation time.

The purpose of this study is to present objective basic data for environmental design by the quantitative analysis of visual quality emboded in physical environment. For this, as for the front garden of high schools, the spatial image was measured by the S.D. Scale Method, Factor Analysis was proceeded by the principal component analysis and the visual preference was investigated by the Paired Comparision Method. The scale values of plain and unpleasant road surface and external appearance of buildings, which are related to emotions of simpleness fell from straightness and stability, were found to be high. But, except for the road surface of Kyunggi High School, scale values of variables explaining the variation of the quality of materials, level of floor and rythm were generally low. For all green spaces, scale values of variables explaining the degree of pleasantness was found to be generally high. And, those explaining tidiness and characteristics of green spaces were not in the same tendency. But, the green spaces of Youngdong High school can be considered to the space with plenty of visual absorption uniqueness were high. As for the correlation between variables, variables for green spaces(12 and 26) and those for overall view of front garden( 1 and 4) revealed high positive correlation. Also, "order - disorder" and "convenient- incovenient" included in road surface variable can be regarded to have the same meaning since the correlation coefficient between them is very high, 0.7045. Image variables including road surface, external appearance of buildings, green spaces and overall view of front garden showed 91.21~61.08% of total variance. Thus, the remains can be considered to be the error valiance or specific variance. In Fctor I, II and III, main components explaining the road surface image of front gardens are order, hardness, texture, color, gradient and rythm. As for the external appearance of b wilding, variables of color, hardness, stability, peculiality and shape revealed high values of factor load. For all variables, communality was drastically high and ellen values and common variance were found to be very high in Factor I. As for the front gardens, variables explaining volume and peculiarity were found to be the main components of Factor I. In Factor II and III, variables of factor load were tidiness, pleasantness.

In this study, we propose a novel salient object detection strategy based on regional contrast and relative spatial compactness. Our algorithm consists of four basic steps. First, we learn color names offline using the probabilistic latent semantic analysis (PLSA) model to find the mapping between basic color names and pixel values. The color names can be used for image segmentation and region description. Second, image pixels are assigned to special color names according to their values, forming different color clusters. The saliency measure for every cluster is evaluated by its spatial compactness relative to other clusters rather than by the intra variance of the cluster alone. Third, every cluster is divided into local regions that are described with color name descriptors. The regional contrast is evaluated by computing the color distance between different regions in the entire image. Last, the final saliency map is constructed by incorporating the color cluster's spatial compactness measure and the corresponding regional contrast. Experiments show that our algorithm outperforms several existing salient object detection methods with higher precision and better recall rates when evaluated using public datasets.
