  • The purpose of this study is to find out the expression style of space in Rietveld's early works in comparison with Mondrian's paintings. Through investigating the development of their works and analyzing the composition and disposition type of elements such as point, line, plane, color in the selected works, we can draw the following conclusions. .First, Rietveld pursues the dissolution of traditional volume and the de-composition of elements as Mondrian does. Second, the painterly property of plane is emphasized by the projection of separately floating elements on the picture plane. Third, the separating the layer of lines from the layer of planes and the re-combination of these two layers present the superimpositional image of three-dimensional objects. This leads into new conception of architectural space and develops the transparency and the extension of plan in modem architecture.

  • Recently ARM processor's processing power has been increasing rapidly as it has been applied to consumer electronics products. Because of its computing power and low power consumption, it is used to various embedded systems.( including vision processing systems.) Embedded linux that provides well-made platform and GUI is also a powerful tool for ARM based embedded systems. So short period to develop is one of major advantages to the ARM based embedded system. However, for real-time date processing applications such as an image processing system, ARM needs additional equipments such as FPGA that is suitable to parallel processing applications. In this paper, we developed an embedded system using ARM processor and FPGA. FPGA takes time consuming image preprocessing and numerical algorithms needs floating point arithmetic and user interface are implemented using the ARM processor. Overall processing speed of the system is 60 frames/sec of VGA images.

  • 현재 많은 신경망의 하드웨어 구현은 부동 소수점 연산에 비해서 적은 면적과 빠른 수행시간을 가지는 고정소수점 연산을 많이 사용하지만, 소프트웨어에서는 일반적으로 높은 정확도를 가지는 부동소수점 연산을 사용한다. 신경망의 하드웨어 구현에서 많이 사용하는 고정소수점 연산은 부동소수점 연산에 비해서 빠른 처리속도와 적은 면적으로써 쉽게 하드웨어 구현에 용이하지만, 부동소수점 연산에 비해서 낮은 정확도와 기존의 부동소수점 연산을 사용하는 소프트웨어 신경망을 쉽게 적용할 수 없는 단점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 부동소수점 연산을 사용하여 문자 추출 MLP의 데이터 변환 없이 적용할 수 있는 전체 파이프라이닝 설계 구조를 제안한다. 제안된 설계방법은 신경망의 전체 구조를 입력층과 은닉층을 링크 병렬화 방법과 은닉층과 출력층을 뉴런 병렬화 방법을 개선하여 쉽게 파이프라이닝 구조로 설계함으로써 신경망 처리는 은닉층 뉴런수와 동일한 주기로 처리되며, 기존의 문자추출 소프트웨어 신경망을 제안된 하드웨어 설계방법으로 구현하였을 때 11배의 빠른 성능을 나타낸다.

  • This paper presents of position control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) the implementation with Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is proposed. Cascade control with inner loop as a current control and an outer loop as a position control is chosen for simplicity and fast response. FPGA is a single chip (single processing unit), which will perform the following tasks: receive and convert control signal, create a reference current signal, control current and create switch signal and act as position controller in a addition of zero form. The 10 kHz sampling frequency and 25 bit of floating point data are defined in this implementation.The experimental results show that the performance of FPGA based position control is comparable with the hardware based position control, with the advantage of control algorithm flexibility

  • This paper proposes a new application of Kalman filter to estimate speed sensorless DC motor. Kalman filter can estimate the system state variables accurately; even the system input is disturbed with noise. In the design, the mathematical model of DC motor in discrete state-space form will be created; the speed of DC motor which is considered as state variable and can be estimated by using Kalman filter. In the experiment; TMS320C31 floating point digital signal processor is used for hardware implementation, the input is disturbed with/and without white noise in the experiment. The experimental results show the speed of DC motor which is estimated by Kalman filter has good accuracy when compared with the results from tacho-meter.

  • A communication-aid circuit to detect eye-gazed patterns is proposed in this paper. The circuit is an analog-digital mixed system. By determining the direction of eye-gazed pattern, the circuit detects an eye-gazed pattern from 2-dimensional arrayed patterns on a syllabary. Different from conventional systems, the syllabary is moved to overlap the eye-gazed pattern with the center coordinate of screen. Thus, the proposed circuit can avoid a complex calculation of the distance between the eye-gazed point and the center coordinate. Furthermore: an economical size of hardware can be provided since no full-adders are required by employing floating-gate MOSFBT's. The validity of the cricuit design is confirmed by computer simulations. Furthermore, to implement onto an IC chip, the layout design is performed by using a CAD tool, MAGIC.

  • Mobile devices is getting to include more functions according to the demand of digital convergence. Applications based on 3D graphic calculation such as 3D games and navigation are one of the functions. 3D graphic calculation requires heavy calculation. Therefore, we need dedicated 3D graphic hardware unit with high performance. 3D graphic calculation needs a lot of complicated floating-point arithmetic operation. However, most of current mobile 3D graphics processors do not have efficient architecture for mobile devices because they are based on those for conventional computer systems. In this paper, we propose arithmetic units for special functions of lighting operation of 3D graphics. Transcendental arithmetic units are designed using approximation of logarithm function. Special function units for lighting operation such as reciprocal, square root, reciprocal of square root, and power can be obtained. The proposed arithmetic unit has lower error rate and smaller silicon area than conventional arithmetic architecture.

  • Base-isolated nuclear power plant (BI-NPP) structures are founded on expanded basemat as a flexible floating nuclear island, are still lacking the recommendation of the consideration of incoherent motion effect. The effect of incoherent earthquake motion on the seismic response of BI-NPP structure has been investigated herein. The incoherency of the ground motions is applied by using an isotropic frequency-dependent spatial correlation function to perform the conditional simulation of the reference design spectrum compatible ground motion in time domain. Time history analysis of two structural models with 486 and 5 equivalent lead plug rubber bearing (LRB) base-isolators have been done under uniform excitation and multiple point excitation. two different cases have been considered: 1) Incoherent motion generated for soft soil and 2) Incoherent motion generated for hard rock soil. The results show that the incoherent motions reduce acceleration and the lateral displacement responses and the reduction is noticeable at soft soil site and higher frequencies.

  • To date, more than 150 exo-solar planets have been observed by various methods such as spectroscopic, photometric, astrometric, gravitational lensing, pulsar timing methods. However, all these are indirect methods; they do not directly image the planets. Only free-floating planets or their 'ana-log' have been directly detected so far. Thus the next milestone is the direct imaging of any kinds of planetary mass objects orbiting around normal (young) stars, which might have been associated with protoplanetary disks, the sites of planet formation. I will describe some SUBARU efforts to detect self-luminous young giant planets as companions as well as direct imaging of the protoplanetary disks of ${\~}$100 AU size. The results of near-infrared coronagraphic imaging with adaptive optics are briefly presented on AB Aur, HD 142527, T Tau, and DH Tau. Our results demonstrate the importance of high-resolution (${\~}$0.1 arcsec) direct imaging over indirect observations such as modeling based on spectral energy distributions. The SUBARU observations are a prelude to ALMA from the morphological point of view.
