In this paper, we propose a robust clutter pre-thresholding method using background adaptive Threshold Map for the clutter rejection in the complex coastal environment. The proposed algorithm is composed of the use of Threshold Map's and method of its calculation. Additionally we also suggest an automatic decision method of Thresold Map's update. Experimental results on some sets of real infrared image sequence show that the proposed method could remove clutters effectively without any loss of detection rate for the aim target and reduce processing time dramatically.

Otsu의 임계값 결정법, Huang와 Wang의 임계값 결정법 등을 포함한 그레이 레벨 히스토그램에 기반한 임계값 결정법은 영상처리 분야에서 널리 사용되어져 왔다. 이들 기법들은 그 효용성이 뛰어남에도 불구하고 하나의 임계값이 아닌 다중 임계값을 추출하는 경우 많은 연산 시간이 소요되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 즉, 임계값의 개수가 늘어남에 따라 연산 복잡도 역시 기하급수적으로 증가하게 된다 본 논문에서는 가우시안 함수를 이용하여 그레이 레벨간의 상관관계를 측정하고, 가우시안 분포함수와 그레이 레벨의 히스토그램을 결합한 가우시안형 유한 혼합 분포를 이용하여 연산 복잡도가 단순하며 효용성 있는 임계값 결정법을 제안한다. 다수의 영상에 제안한 기법을 적용한 모의실험을 통하여 효용성을 확인하고, Otsu의 임계값 결정법과 제안한 기법의 연산 복잡도 비교를 통해서 제안한 임계값 결정법의 효율성을 보인다.

A content-base search method is required for video which has an unformatted and huge size of data. The index techniue is necessary for the content-based search of the video data. The first step of the video indexing is a cut detection. We propose a dynamic threshold method which change a threshold value during the cut detection process. We demonstrate that the proposed method is more efficient than the existing methods.

Threshold limit value (TLV) test between expert and consumer panel was conducted about absolute, recognition and difference threshold respectively. And we tried to suggest appropriate and minimum acceptable menthol concentration level by consumer panel. Determination of threshold value was based on ASTM E 679-79 method by forced-choice ascending concentration series. In addition, a semi-ascending paired difference method was referred to conduct test. The group threshold value was determined as the value of geometric mean individual threshold. The smokers were dividend by two groups, trained and consumer panel. Trained panel was selected according to sensitivity to menthol discrimination. Consumer panel wasrecruited in proportion as population ratios including female smokers. They were all over twenty years old volunteers and summed up thirty four persons. In terms of sensor evaluation, overall difference test with seven-category scale by both trained and consumer panelists were done. On judging correct or incorrect answer, two by three cut-off levels applied to. Every test was conducted with two sessions, before smoking and during smoking period. And, only two samples served each paneI per test with regard to sensory fatigue and reliable results. All tests were replicated, and in total 32 times per panelist. In conclusion, the recognition threshold about consumer and expert panel was 358 ppm/cig. and 276 ppm/cig. in separately. Besides, absolute and difference thresholds were obtained also. And, we conduct difference threshold test with two different ways, upward and downward. And, The results of each method were 246, 195 ppm/cig., 1414, 1336 ppm/cig. and 1047, 972 ppm/cig.

The Heat Anisotropic Diffusion Method has shown very effective for the contour detection of 2-D echocardiogram. To implement this algorithm, we have to choose the parameter C, K, and the threshold level. The choice of C and K are not very sensitive for the good edge detection of the echocardiogram, however the choice of the threshold level is very critical. Until now the threshold level is chosen by the trial and error method. In this paper, we present an automatic threshold decision method from the histogram of the gradient of boundary-like pixels.

In this paper, we propose a numerical method to model temperature dependent threshold voltage shift observed in metal oxide thin-film transistors (TFTs). The proposed model is then implemented in AIM-SPICE circuit simulation tool. The proposed method consists of modeling the well-known stretched-exponential time dependent threshold voltage shift and their temperature dependent coefficients. The outputs from AIM-SPICE tool and the stretched-exponential model at different temperatures in the literature are compared and they show a good agreement. Since metal oxide TFTs are the promising candidate for flat panel displays, the proposed method will be a good stepping stone to help enhance reliability of fast-evolving display circuits.

Land cover and land use classification on a huge scale, e.g. national or continental scale, has become more and more important because environmental researches need land cover: And land use data on such scales. We developed a crop field extraction method, which is one of the steps in our land cover classification system for a huge area. Firstly, a crop field model is defined to characterize "crop field" in terms of NDVI value and textual information Textual information is represented by the density of straight lines which are extracted by wavelet transform. Secondly, candidates of NDVI threshold value are determined by "scale-space filtering" method. The most appropriate threshold value among the candidates is determined by evaluating the line density of the area extracted by the threshold value. Finally, the crop field is extracted by applying level slicing to Landsat TM image with the threshold value determined above. The experiment demonstrates that the extracted area by this method coincides very well with the one extracted by visual interpretation.

This paper proposes an automatic liver segmentation method using improved partial histogram threshold (PHT) algorithms. This method removes neighboring abdominal organs regardless of random pixel variation of contrast enhanced CT images. Adaptive multi-modal threshold is first performed to extract a region of interest (ROI). A left PHT (LPHT) algorithm is processed to remove the pancreas, spleen, and left kidney. Then a right PHT (RPHT) algorithm is performed for eliminating the right kidney from the ROI. Finally, binary morphological filtering is processed for removing of unnecessary objects and smoothing of the ROI boundary. Ten CT slices of six patients (60 slices) were selected to evaluate the proposed method. As evaluation measures, an average normalized area and area error rate were used. From the experimental results, the proposed automatic liver segmentation method has strong similarity performance as the MSM by medical Doctor.

In Jeju island, runoff has frequently happened when the rainfall depth is over a threshold value. To simulated this characteristic rainfall-runoff model structure has to be modified. In this study, the TRSM (Threshold Runoff Simulation Method) was developed to overcome the limitations of SWAT in applying to the hydrologic characteristics of Jeju island. When the precipitation and soil water are less than threshold value, we revised the SWAT routine not to make surface/lateral or groundwater discharge. For Hancheon watershed, the threshold value was set as 80% of soil water through the analysis of rainfall-runoff relationship. Through the simulation of test watershed, it was proven that TRSM performed much better in simulating pulse type stream flow for the Hancheon watershed.

바코드 영상을 판독하기 위해서는 이진화 과정이 필수적이다. 기존 이진화 방법에는 글로벌 임계값 이진화 방법과 지역 임계값 이진화 방법이 있다. 글로벌 이진화 방법은 하나의 임계값을 사용한다. 바코드 영상에서 부분적으로 명도가 다를 경우나 blur가 있는 경우가 있다. 따라서 이진화 패턴정보가 유지되지 않는다. 지역 임계값 이진화 방법은 이진화 패턴 정보가 유지되는 반면 글로벌 임계값 이진화보다 처리속도가 느려진다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위한 알고리즘으로는 부분 지역 이진화 알고리즘을 제안 한다. 본 논문에서는 부분 지역 이진화 알고리즘을 하드웨어에 적합하도록 설계하고 Vivado를 통해 합성 하였다.
