In this paper, an improved matching method using subtemplate of moving region and 3-step search algorithm is proposed. It reduces heavy computational load of the conventional method and also can continuously track the target even with occlusion. The proposed method is applied to an automatic target tracker using high speed 16bit microprocessor in order to track one moving target in real time. Experimental results show that the proposed method has better performance over the conventional method in spite of greately reducing the computational load, even in case with complex background and/or with occlusion.

Dynamic response of organic light-emitting diodes were analyzed in $ITO/Alq_3$(100 nm)/Al device structure with a variation of voltage an frequency. At low frequency region, complex impedance is mostly governed by resistive component, and at high frequency region by capacitive component. Also, we have evaluated resistance, capacitance and permittivity of devices.

The East Asia monsoon is one of the most complex atmospheric phenomena caused by Land-Sea thermal contrast. It plays essential role in fulfilling the water needs of the region but also poses stern consequences in terms of flooding and droughts. This study analyzed the influence of Global Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies (SSTA) on occurrence of droughts in the East Asia monsoon region ($20^{\circ}N-50^{\circ}N$, $103^{\circ}E-149^{\circ}E$). Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) was employed to characterize the droughts over the region using 30-year (1978-2007) gridded rainfall dataset at $0.5^{\circ}$ grid resolution. Due to high variability in intensity and spatial extent of monsoon rainfall the East Asia monsoon region was divided into the homogeneous rainfall zones using cluster analysis method. Seven zones were delineated that showed unique rainfall regimes over the region. The influence of SSTA was assessed by using lagged-correlation between global gridded SSTA ($0.2^{\circ}$ grid resolution) and SPI of each zone. Sea regions with potential influence on droughts in different zones were identified based on significant positive and negative correlation between SSTA and SPI with a lag period of 3-month. The results showed that SSTA have the potential to be used as predictor variables for prediction of droughts with a reasonable lead time. The findings of this study will assist to improve the drought prediction over the region.

There is the boundary following algorithm called by blob coloring or connected region labeling, which means that each pixel of the internal region can be filled with group label values by the raster scanning. This process represents to assigns the individual label value to each region. In this paper an improved equivalent table algorithm to be simpler and faster than the previous tangled complex labelling algorithm will be proposed when grouping different labels to the same region. 8 steps algorithms for grouping in the equivalent table will be presented and the yielding results will be shown.

In this paper, a new algorithm for extracting and recognizing characters from video, without pre-knowledge such as font, color, size of character, is proposed. To improve the recognition rate for videos with complex background at low resolution, continuous frames with identical text region are automatically detected to compose an average frame. Using boundary pixels of a text region as seeds, we apply region filling to remove background from the character Then color clustering is applied to remove remaining backgrounds according to the verification of region filling process. Features such as white run and zero-one transition from the center, are extracted from unknown characters. These feature are compared with a pre-composed character feature set to recognize the characters.

To strengthen the nation's logistics infrastructure, the government will also look into constructing inland freight bases in the country's five major regions-the Seoul metropolitan area, Busan region, Honam region(North and South Jeolla provinces), central region(North and South Chungcheong and Gangwon provinces) and the Youngnam region(North and South Gyeongsang provinces). In the years ahead, the construction industry will be challenged by increasingly difficult and complex problems in both engineering and management . Domestic construction industry usually accounts for the range of 10percent of a gross domestic products(GDP) in Korea. The retardations of construction periods in numerous construction works which are caused by the short supply of building materials and laborers have been coming out as a social problem in the country.

This study intended to interpretate the current value of the cultural landscape resources in Gwansan region, Gwangju-si. The 35 significant cultural landscape resources in Gwangsan region appear education, people in history, living residence, religion & belief, distribution of cultural site, tomb, industry, topographic scenery characteristics. They are classified such as 22 traditional landscape resources, 7 modern landscape resources, 6 natural landscape resources. The significant cultural landscape resources were evaluated by value items of 4 natural landscape, 4 social, and 5 cultural. As a result of value evaluation on the cultural landscape resources in Gwangsan region, the highest value were appeared on the cultural items, while the lowest value were appeared on the social items. And high evaluation were appeared on regional identity, cultural preservation, regional monumentality, visibility, while low evaluation were appeared on unique naturality and connectivity of assets.

A face detection in color images is important for many multimedia applications. It is first step for face recognition and can be used for classifying specific shorts. This paper describes a new method to detect faces in color images based on the skin color and hair color. This paper presents a fuzzy-based method for classifying skin color region in a complex background under varying illumination. The Fuzzy rule bases of the fuzzy system are generated using training method like a genetic algorithm(GA). We find the skin color region and hair color region using the fuzzy system and apply the convex-hull to each region and find the face from their intersection relationship. To validity the effectiveness of the proposed method, we make experiment with various cases.

For the disadvantages of multi-scale geometric analysis methods such as loss of definition and complex selection of rules in image fusion, an improved multi-focus image fusion method is proposed. First, the initial fused image is quickly obtained based on the lifting stationary wavelet transform, and a simple normalized cut is performed on the initial fused image to obtain different segmented regions. Then, the original image is subjected to NSCT transformation and the absolute value of the high frequency component coefficient in each segmented region is calculated. At last, the region with the largest absolute value is selected as the postfusion region, and the fused multi-focus image is obtained by traversing each segment region. Numerical experiments show that the proposed algorithm can not only simplify the selection of fusion rules, but also overcome loss of definition and has validity.

In order to convert interlaced video into progressive scanning format, this paper proposed a high performance de-interlacing algorithm based on region adaptive interpolation filter design. Specifically, usage of the 6-tap filter is only for the most complex region, but for the smooth and regular edge region, much more correlated filter such as 2-tap or 4-tap filter should be used instead. According to the experimental results, the proposed algorithm has achieved noticeably good performance.
