  • We report a method for improving heat exchange between cryo-cooled large-power-dissipation devices and liquid cryogen. Micro-machined monolithic heat sinks were fabricated on a high integration density superconducting Josephson device, and studied for their effect on cooling the device. The monolithic heat sink showed a significant enhancement of cooling capability, which markedly improved the device operation under large dc- and microwave power dissipation. The detailed mechanism of the enhancement still needs further modeling and experiments in order to optimize the design of the heat sink.

  • We describe the image enhancement method of applying two spatial filters with different characteristics adaptively. An adaptive method is introduced so that sharpness enhancement is performed only in regions where the image exhibits significant dynamics, while noise reduction is achieved in smooth regions. Simulation results show that the proposed method improved the image quality.

  • In this paper, an image enhancement method by saturation and contrast improvement is proposed. Histogram equalization with color difference makes higher contrast. By generating saturation amplification ratio with color difference, the saturation improves effectively. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has higher contrast and more natural - look than the conventional methods.

  • In this paper, tone mapping method by local contrast and detail enhancement for High Dynamic Range (HDR) is proposed. By applying Piecewise Dynamic Range Histogram Adjustment (PDRHA) and Detail Enhancement Volume (DEV) with decomposed layers, tone mapping is performed effectively. The experimental results show that the proposed method preserves local contrast and overall impression with naturalness of original images.

  • This paper presents the computerised simulation of colour-blindness and proposes a colour enhancement technique to aid colour-blinded people to use Visual Display Units (VDU). With the red-green colour perception difficulties, the ISH model has been used to develop the algorithms. The simulator and colour enhancement have been tested by colour-blind people and compared to existing simulators for colour-blindness.

  • The enhancement of fingerprint image is necessary to improve the performance of fingerprint recognition. The enhancement of fingerprint image with Gabor Filter(GF) is widely used. However GF has the weakness such as long processing time and the sensitivity to ridge frequency. To overcome these weaknesses, we propose a Modified Anisotropic Gaussian Filter(MAGF) which is modified from Anisotropic Filter proposed by S. Greenburg's(SAF). This proposed MAGF can reduce the calculation time of ridge frequency and improve the weakness of sensitivity to ridge frequency. We also explained that MAGF is better than others mathematically and experimentally.

  • The study on Shilla monumental inscription has beer accomplished by many historians. However, the research on enhancement of monumental inscription image using digital image processing technique is not sufficient. The preprocessing using computer is needed fur accurate interpretation of history. In this paper, digital image enhancement algorithm based on mathematical morphology for noise reduction and character clearness is proposed. In the experiment, the subjective image quality is improved using the proposed algorithm.

  • The primary object of this study is to obtain a basic knowledge of heat transfer enhancement mechanism as affected by temperature driven Marangoni convection. Experiments is achieved to visualize the enhanced heat transfer phenomena by the effect of Marangoni convection through the laser holographic interferometry. Also Nusselt Number is introduced for the relation of Marangoni Number.

  • This paper has been studied speech enhancement method in noisy environment. By mean of that we prefer human auditory mechanism which is perfect system and applied wavelet transform. Multi-resolution of wavelet transform make possible multiband spectrum analysis like human ears. This method was verified very effective way in noisy speech enhancement.
