In this paper, we propose a new framework to control VR(Virtual reality) contents in real time using user's mouth-wind and acceleration sensor of mobile device. In VR, user interaction technology is important, but various user interface methods is still lacking. Most of the interaction technologies are hand touch screen touch or motion recognition. We propose a new interface technology that can interact with VR contents in real time using user's mouth-wind method with acceleration sensor. The direction of the mouth-wind is determined using the angle and position between the user and the mobile device, and the control position is adjusted using the acceleration sensor of the mobile device. Noise included in the size of the mouth wind is refined using a simple average filter. In order to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed technology, we show the result of interacting with contents in game and simulation in real time by applying control position and mouth-wind external force to the game.

가상현실 경험에서 높은 감각적 몰입으로 시각으로 지각되는 정보와 전정기관, 체성감각 등 감각기가 지각하는 정보 간에 불일치가 생기면서 가상현실 멀미가 일어나 기기의 보급에 장애가 되고 있다. 본 연구는 기존의 감각의 충돌 이론에 착안하여 모션 컨트롤러로 대표되는 새로운 전반적인 신체의 움직임이 각성 정도와 현존감에 영향을 끼치며, 가상현실 멀미를 촉발할 수 있고 각성 정도는 감각적 몰입, 현존감과 깊은 관계가 있다는 가설을 세우고 실험을 통해 검증하였다. 특히 컨트롤을 위한 전체적인 신체의 움직임에 집중하여, 몸-머리 움직임과 대조하여 연구하였다. 실험의 결과로 신체 움직임과 각성 정도 간에 유의한 상관관계를 확인할 수 있었고, 현존감에 대해서도 일정 정도 유의한 상관 관계가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또, 신체의 움직임이 있을 때, 안경의 착용 유무가 관측되는 가상현실 멀미에 중재변수로 역할을 하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

분산 동영상 코딩 (Distributed video coding)은 Slepian과 Wolf 그리고 Wyner와 Ziv의 정보 이론에 기반을 둔 새로운 동영상 압축 패러다임이다. 수신측의 보조정보를 이용하는 손실 압축인 분산 동영상 코딩은 계산의 복잡도를 디코더쪽으로 옮김으로써 적은 연산량의 동영상 인코딩을 가능하게 한다. RD 성능은 기존의 인트라 프레임 코딩보다 뛰어나지만 움직임 보상 (motion-compensated) 기반 인터 프레임 코딩의 성능에는 미치지 못한다. 본 논문은 DV근의 기본 개념과 구조에 대하여 소개하고 실험을 통하여 코딩 방식에 따른 성능을 비교 분석하며 나아가 공간 계층화 코더로서의 DVC의 성능을 보인다.

Objective: The purpose of the study was to compare the acceleration and shock attenuation (SA) of the runners with/without low back pain (LBG vs. NLBG) while running at 2.5 m/s, 3.0 m/s, 3.5 m/s and 4.0 m/s. Method: 15 adults without low back pain (age: 23.13±3.46 years, body weight: 70.13±8.94 kg, height: 176.79±3.68 cm, NLBG) and 7 adults with low back pain (age: 27.14±5.81 years, body weight: 73.10±10.74 kg, height: 176.41±3.13 cm, LBG) participated in this study. LBG was recruited through the VAS pain rating scale. All participants ran on an instrumented treadmill (Bertec, USA). Results: The LBG shows statistically greater vertical acceleration at the distal tibia during running at 3.5 m/s and 4.0 m/s and greater shock attenuation from the distal tibia to the head during running at 3.5 m/s compared with the NLBG during running (p<.05). As the speed increased, there was a statistically significant increase in vertical/resultant acceleration and shock attenuation for both groups. Conclusion: The findings indicated that the runners with low back pain (LBG) experience greater impact and shock attenuation compared with non-low back pain group (NLBG) during fast running. However, it is still inconclusive whether high impact on the lower extremity during running is the main cause of low back pain in the population. Thus, it is suggested that the study on low back pain should observe the characteristics of impact during running with individuals' low back pain experience and clinical symptoms.

Accompanied by the rapid development of Computer Vision, Visual surveillance has achieved great evolution with more and more complicated processing. However there are still many problems to be resolved for robust and reliable visual surveillance, and the cast shadow occurring in motion detection process is one of them. Shadow pixels are often misclassified as object pixels so that they cause errors in localization, segmentation, tracking and classification of objects. This paper proposes a novel cast shadow removal method. As opposed to previous conventional methods, which considers pixel properties like intensity properties, color distortion, HSV color system, and etc., the proposed method utilizes observations about edge patterns in the shadow region in the current frame and the corresponding region in the background scene, and applies Laplacian edge detector to the blob regions in the current frame and the background scene. Then, the product of the outcomes of application determines whether the blob pixels in the foreground mask comes from object blob regions or shadow regions. The proposed method is simple but turns out practically very effective for Gaussian Mixture Model, which is verified through experiments.

본 논문은 디스플레이상에서 동영상 화질 향상을 위한 적응형 콘트라스트 조절장치를 설계하고 이를 구현하였다. 제안한 방식은 입력되는 영상 신호의 중간 값을 이용함으로써 화면의 중간 자기 에 따라 적응형으로 콘트라스트를 향상시키는 기법이다. 또한 프레임 메모리를 사용하는 대신에 입력 화소들을 실시간으로 처리함으로써 기존의 방식에 비해 하드웨어 구성이 간단하여 실시간 처리를 요하는 분야에 쉽게 적용 가능하다. 기존 방식들이 정지영상을 기준으로 콘트라스트를 향상시킨 것에 반해 본 논문에서 제안한 방식은 정지영상 뿐만 아니라 동화상에서도 효과적으로 콘트라스트 향상이 가능하다. 제안한 알고리즘은 VHDL을 이용하여 설계하고, FPGA를 통하여 구현하였다. 인터페이스 시스템을 제작하여 테스트한 결과, 콘트라스트가 효과적으로 향상되었음을 확인하였다.

To reduce huge losses in pig farms, weaning pigs with weak immune systems are required to be carefully supervised. Even if various researches have been performed for livestock monitoring environment, segmenting each pig from touching pigs is still entrenched as a difficult problem. In this paper, we propose a real-time segmentation method for moving pigs by using motion information in a 24-h video surveillance system. The experimental results with the videos obtained from a domestic pig farm illustrated the possibility for segmenting by using our proposed method in real-time.

The characteristics of combustion process in an internal combustion engine are affected by the mixing process between injected fuel and ambient gas. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the mixture formation process of diesel spray. In this study, the spray structure was visualized by the exciplex fluorescence method, which can provide the simultaneous 2-D images of vapor and liquid phase in inner spray. For accurate investigation, the liquid-phase images were recorded with a 35mm still camera and CCD camera. Consequentially, it could be confirmed that the high-concentration vapor phase is formed in the region of spray tip and the edge of the liquid phase where droplets exist in the evaporating diesel spray, and the formed vapor is spread by diffusion. Also, the distribution of vapor is determined by the motion of droplets that exist in the edge of the liquid phase and the spray-tip region.

Wave load prediction at zero forward speed using finite depth Green function is a well-established method regularly used in the offshore and marine industry. The forward speed approximation in deep water condition, although with limitations, is also found to be quite useful for engineering applications. However, analysis of vessels with forward speed in finite water depth still requires efficient computing methods. In this paper, a method for analysis of wave induced forces and corresponding motion on freely floating three-dimensional bodies with low to moderate forward speed is presented. A finite depth Green function is developed and incorporated in a 3D frequency domain potential flow based tool to allow consideration of finite (or shallow) water depth conditions. First order forces and moments and mean second order forces and moments in six degree of freedom are obtained. The effect of hull flare angle in predicting added resistance is incorporated. This implementation provides the unique capability of predicting added resistance in finite water depth with flare angle effect using a Green function approach. The results are validated using a half immersed sphere and S-175 ship. Finally, the effect of finite depth on a tanker with forward speed is presented.

Positron emission tomography (PET) is widely used imaging modality for effective and accurate functional testing and medical diagnosis using radioactive isotopes. However, PET has difficulties in acquiring images with high image quality due to constraints such as the amount of radioactive isotopes injected into the patient, the detection time, the characteristics of the detector, and the patient's motion. In order to overcome this problem, we have succeeded to improve the image quality by using the dynamic image reconstruction method based on singular value decomposition. However, there is still some question about the characteristics of the proposed technique. In this study, the characteristics of reconstruction method based on singular value decomposition was estimated over computational simulation. As a result, we confirmed that the singular value decomposition based reconstruction technique distinguishes the images well when the signal - to - noise ratio of the input image is more than 20 decibels and the feature vector angle is more than 60 degrees. In addition, the proposed methode to estimate the characteristics of reconstruction technique can be applied to other spatio-temporal feature based dynamic image reconstruction techniques. The deduced conclusion of this study can be useful guideline to apply medical image into SVD based dynamic image reconstruction technique to improve the accuracy of medical diagnosis.
