We have compared the column densities of $H_2CO$, $^{13}CO$, $C^{18}O$, $^{12}CO$, CS, and $HCO^+$ to the visual extinctions derived from star counts in eight dark clouds, L1317, B1, L1551, L1535, L1544, L134, L134N, and B335. We examined the degree of correlation between molecules and extinctions. The contours of $^{13}CO$, $H_2CO$, and CS distributions show an excellent coincidence with those of the visual extinction. Even though the plots of molecule brightness temperature or column density as a function of the visual extinction show a considerable scatter, a good correlation is found between the two quantities. The turnover of the ratios of $^{13}CO$ and $H_2CO$ column densities to the visual extinction at high extinctions observed in several clouds is not apparent in this work. The ratios seem to maintain constant values within the range of $A_V$ we studied. The slopes of the relations between the molecule column density and extinction, and the threshold values of extinction for detection of molecules are comparable to the other works. The cause of the slope difference is discussed. We derived, for the first time, the relations of CS and $HCO^+$ column densities and the visual extinction. The ratio of CS column density to extinction is at least two orders of magnitude lower than the mean value for $^{13}CO$, but the threshold for detection of CS is comparable to that of $^{13}CO$. The ratio of the $HCO^+$ column density to extinction is one to two orders of magnitude lower than the mean ratio for $H_2CO$.

AlGaInP 기반 수직형 적색 LED (Light Emitting Diode)의 광추출효율을 증가시키기 위하여 화학적 etching 기술을 이용하여 n-AlGaInP 표면에 삼각꼴 모양의 거칠기를 형성하였다. Etching은 $H_3PO_4$계의 용액을 이용하여 화학적 etching을 진행 하였다. AlGaInP etching은 광추출효율의 증가와 밀접한 관련을 갖고 있으며 AFM (Atomic Force Microscope)을 이용하여 AlGaInP 표면을 분석하여 약 44 nm의 RMS (root-mean-square) 거칠기가 형성됨을 알 수 있었다. 광추출효율은 기존 수직형 적색 LED보다 거칠기가 형성된 수직형 적색 LED에서 41%의 높은 발광 효율을 보임으로써 고효율 수직형 적색 LED의 가능성을 보였다.

본 논문에서는 영상의 다차원 명암도 증감에 기반을 둔 유사도 측정에 의한 효율적인 영상정합 방법을 제안하였다. 여기서 다차원 명암도는 영상의 4방향을 고려한 유사성 판정으로 영상이 가지는 속성을 더욱 더 많이 반영하기 위함이고, 명암도 증감은 인접 픽셀간의 밝기변화를 고려함으로써 좀 더 포괄적으로 유사성을 측정하기 위함이다. 또한 측정된 4방향 각각의 명암도 증감에 대한 정규상호상관계수를 구하고, 그 각각에 바탕을 둔 전체 정규상호상관계수, 각 방향의 상관계수에 대한 산술평균과 단순 곱 및 최대값으로 정규화된 상관계수의 산술평균과 단순 곱으로 정의된 유사도 계수로 각각 정합을 측정하였다. 제안된 방법을 22개의 243*243 픽셀 얼굴영상과 9개의 500*500 픽셀 인물영상을 대상으로 각각 실험한 결과, 영상의 속성을 잘 반영한 우수한 정합성능이 있음을 확인하였다. 특히 각 방향의 상관계수에 대한 산술평균 유사도가 가장 우수한 신뢰성을 가지는 정합척도임을 알 수 있었다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate image artifacts in the vicinity of dental implants in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans obtained with different spatial orientations, tube current levels, and metal artifact reduction algorithm (MAR) conditions. Materials and Methods: One dental implant and 2 tubes filled with a radiopaque solution were placed in the posterior region of a mandible using a surgical guide to ensure parallel alignment. CBCT scans were acquired with the mandible in 2 spatial orientations in relation to the X-ray projection plane (standard and modified) at 3 tube current levels: 5, 8, and 11 mA. CBCT scans were repeated without the implant and were reconstructed with and without MAR. The mean voxel and noise values of each tube were obtained and compared using multi-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test(α=0.05). Results: Mean voxel values were significantly higher and noise values were significantly lower in the modified orientation than in the standard orientation (P<0.05). MAR activation and tube current levels did not show significant differences in most cases of the modified spatial orientation and in the absence of the dental implant (P>0.05). Conclusion: Modifying the spatial orientation of the head increased brightness and reduced spatial orientation noise in adjacent regions of a dental implant, with no influence from the tube current level and MAR.

We present a sample of 54 disk galaxies which have well developed extraplanar structures. We selected them using visual inspections from the color images of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Since the sizes of the extraplanar structures are comparable to the disks, they are considered as prominent stellar halos rather than large bulges. A single $S{\acute{e}}rsic$ profile fitted to the surface brightness along the minor-axis of the disk shows a luminosity excess in the central regions for the majority of sample galaxies. This central excess is considered to be caused by the central bulge component. The mean $S{\acute{e}}rsic$ index of the single component model is $1.1{\pm}0.9$. A double $S{\acute{e}}rsic$ profile model that employs n = 1 for the inner region, and varying n for the outer region, provides a better fit than the single $S{\acute{e}}rsic$ profile model. For a small fraction of galaxies, a $S{\acute{e}}rsic$ profile fitted with n = 4 for the inner region gives similar results. There is a weak tendency of increasing n with increasing luminosity and central velocity dispersion, but there is no dependence on the local background density.

In this study, the influence of changing combustor pressure on nitric oxide emission was investigated. Expansion of reaction region was more clear in the P$^{*}$ <1 conditions compared to the P$^{*}\geq1$ conditions, and it could be observed that flames are distinct in the P$^{*}\geq1$ conditions and that brightness is relative low and wide distribution is shown in the P$^{*}$ <1 conditions. In the respect of temperature distribution, narrow and high-temperature region was shown in the P$^{*}\geq1$ conditions. On the other hands, overall uniform temperature distributions were shown in the P$^{*}$ <1 conditions. Nitric oxide emission decreased with decreasing combustor pressure. This tendency was explained by the mean flame temperature distribution. Low NOx combustion is ascribed to wide-spread reaction region in the low combustor Pressure and oscillation were shown P$^{*}\leq0.97$, and strength and sizes of oscillation were more increased with lower pressure index. These results demonstrate that flame shape and nitric oxide emission can be controlled with changing combustor pressure.

Airborne imagery must be precisely orthorectified to be used as geographical information data. GPS/INS (Global Positioning System/Inertial Navigation System) and LIDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) data were employed to automatically orthorectify airborne images. In this study, 154 frame airborne images and LIDAR vector data were acquired. LIDAR vector data were converted to raster image for employing as reference data. To derive images with constant brightness, flat field correction was applied to the whole images. The airborne images were geometrically corrected by calculating internal orientation and external orientation using GPS/INS data and then orthorectified using LIDAR digital elevation model image. The precision of orthorectified images was validated using 50 ground control points collected in arbitrary selected five images and LIDAR intensity image. In validation results, RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) was 0.365 smaller then two times of pixel spatial resolution at the surface. It is possible that the derived mosaicked airborne image by this automatic orthorectification method is employed as geographical information data.

Ultra faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) are larger but fainter than globular clusters, being the faintest galaxies in the universe. They have been found only in the Local Group. We report the discovery of an UFD in the intracluster field of the Virgo cluster (Virgo UFD1). It is located near the core of Virgo cluster, and far from any massive galaxies. The color magnitude diagram of resolved stars in Virgo UFD1 shows narrow, metal poor red giant branch (RGB), which is very similar to the UFDs in the Local Group. by comparing RGB in this galaxy with 12 Gyr stellar isochrones, we estimate its distance, $d=16.4{\pm}0.4$ Mpc and mean metallicity, $[Fe/H]=-2.4{\pm}0.4$. We derive its integrated photometric properties and structural parameters : V-band absolute magnitude of $MV=-6.3{\pm}0.2$, effective radius of $84{\pm}7pc$, and central surface brightness of ${\mu}V,0=26.49{\pm}0.09$ mag arcsec-2. These properties are similar to these of Local Group UFDs. Virgo UFD1 is the first UFD discovered beyond the Local Group. These results indicate that it may be a fossil remnant of the first galaxies.

본 논문에서는 지오데식 동적 윤곽선 모델을 이용하여 뇌실 영역을 검출하기 위하여 기존의 에지지시함수를 대신한 영역 기반의 곡선진행억제 함수를 제안하였다. 제안한 곡선 진행 억제 함수는 뇌실 영역의 검출에 매우 효과적이었으며, 이 함수는 MRI 영상에서 밝게 나타나는 뇌실 영역의 평균 밝기를 기반으로 한다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 방법이 기존의 방법보다 뇌실 영역을 잘 검출할 수 있음을 다양한 척도를 이용하여 수치적으로 비교하였다. 실제 정상과 뇌종양에 의한 뇌질환 영상에 적용시켜 뇌실 검출 과정을 시각적으로 비교하여 우수성을 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 반복적인 움직임의 있는 경우, 강건하게 해결 할 수 있는 움직임 검출 알고리즘을 제시한다. 기존에 차 영상을 이용한 움직임 검출방법은 밝기나 잡음에는 어느 정도 강건하지만, 일정 영역에서 동작하는 물체의 반복적인 움직임에 대해서는 움직임으로 오 인식하는 문제점을 자주 발생시킨다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 영상에서 반복적인 움직임은 특정 영역 상에서만 움직임의 발생된다는 특징을 이용해, 움직임의 가장 많이 발생한 영역을 움직임 영역으로 설정하고, 블록 정합(Block Matching) 시켜 계산된 평균절대오차(MAE)값을 가지고 문제를 해결하는 방법을 제시한다. 실험 결과 제안된 알고리즘은 다양한 반복적인 움직임에 대해 기존의 방법들에 비해 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
