The fixed effects panel probit model faces "incidental parameters problem" because it has a property that the number of parameters to be estimated will increase with sample size. The maximum likelihood estimation fails to give a consistent estimator of slope parameter. Unlike the panel regression model, it is not feasible to find an orthogonal reparameterization of fixed effects to get a consistent estimator. In this note, a hierarchical Bayesian model is proposed. The model is essentially equivalent to the frequentist's random effects model, but the individual specific effects are estimable with the help of Gibbs sampling. The Bayesian estimator is shown to reduce reduced the small sample bias. The maximum likelihood estimator in the random effects model is also efficient, which contradicts Green (2004)'s conclusion.

Poisson generalized linear mixed models(GLMMs) have been widely used for the analysis of clustered or correlated count data. For the inference marginal likelihood, which is obtained by integrating out random effects is often used. It gives maximum likelihood(ML) estimator, but the integration is usually intractable. In this paper, we propose how to obtain the ML estimator via Laplace approximation based on hierarchical-likelihood (h-likelihood) approach under the Poisson GLMMs. In particular, the h-likelihood avoids the integration itself and gives a statistically efficient procedure for various random-effect models including GLMMs. The proposed method is illustrated using two practical examples and simulation studies.

In this paper, acquiring the more desirable to adopt design SoC for the fast hierarchical motion estimation, we exploit foreground and background search algorithm (FBSA) base on the dual arithmetic processor element(DAPE). It is possible to estimate the large search area motion displacement using a half of number PE in general operation methods. And the proposed architecture of MHME improve the VLSI design hardware through the proposed FBSA structure with DAPE to remove the local memory. The proposed FBSA which use bit array processing in search area can improve structure as like multiple processor array unit(MPAU).

When the sample size in a certain domain is too small to produce adequate information, small area model with random effects is usually used. Also, if we do not consider an inherent pattern which data possess, it considerably affects inference. In this paper, we mainly focus on modeling to handle increased variation of the Current Population Survey (CPS) median income as the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) mean income increases. In a hierarchical Bayesian framework, most estimations are carried out through the Gibbs sampler while the grid method is used to generate parameters from non-standard form. Numerical study indicates that the performance of proposed model is better than that of CPS method in terms of four comparison measurements.

We study Bayesian estimates for finite population proportions in multinomial problems. To do this, we consider a three-stage hierarchical Bayesian model. For prior, we use Dirichlet density to model each cell probability in each cluster. Our method does not require complicated computation such as Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to draw samples from each density of parameters. We draw samples using Gibbs sampler with grid method. We apply this algorithm to a couple of simulation data under three scenarios and we estimate the finite population proportions using two kinds of approaches We compare results with the point estimates of finite population proportions and their standard deviations. Finally, we check the consistency of computation using differen samples drawn from distinct iterates.

For CAD/CAPP integration, part information on not only geometry but also machining characteristics should be delivered and commonly used between designers and process planners. In this study, the machining features, as linking factors of the integration, are represented as the combination of functional features and atomic features and grouped into a hierarchical database. And the feature based modelling approach is used by generating information on the machining features in design stage. These features are drawn by analyzing real decision rules of process planners. The database using the machining features is built and used for application modules of process planning, operation planning and standard time estimation.

본 논문은 연속 초음파 영상으로부터 모자이크 영상을 구하기 위한 특징점 기반 블록 움직임 추출 방법에서 정확도를 높이고 계산 시간을 줄이기 위해 다해상도(multi-resolution)영상을 이용한 계층적 특징점 기반 블록 움직임 추출 방법을 제시하였다. 초음파 영상에서의 Speckle 노이즈의 영향을 줄이기 위해 저해상도의 영상에서 특징점을 추출하고, 계산 시간을 줄이기 위해 저해상도 영상의 추정된 움직임을 고해상도 영상의 움직임 추정에 적용하여 탐색 범위를 줄였다. 그 결과 계산 시간을 개선하면서 모자이크 영상의 정확도를 높일 수 있었다.

Many reported methods assume that the faces in an image or an image sequence have been identified and localization. Face detection from image is a challenging task because of variability in scale, location, orientation and pose. In this paper, we present an efficient linear discriminant for multi-view face detection. Our approaches are based on linear discriminant. We define training data with fisher linear discriminant to efficient learning method. Face detection is considerably difficult because it will be influenced by poses of human face and changes in illumination. This idea can solve the multi-view and scale face detection problem poses. Quickly and efficiently, which fits for detecting face automatically. In this paper, we extract face using fisher linear discriminant that is hierarchical models invariant pose and background. We estimation the pose in detected face and eye detect. The purpose of this paper is to classify face and non-face and efficient fisher linear discriminant..

본 논문에서는 웨이블릿 변환 영역에서 기존의 다중해상도 움직임 예측 방법에 비해 보다 향상된 단화소 이동 감쇠를 이용한 다중해상도 움직임 예측 방법을 제안하였다. 웨이블릿 변환 영역에서 웨이블릿 계수들의 계층적 상관관계를 이용한 기존의 다중해상도 움직임 예측 방법(MRME)은 웨이블릿 변환시 수행되는 다운 샘플링 과정에서 발생되는 웨이블릿 계수들의 이동-변환 성질(shift-variant property)에 의해 정확한 움직임 예측을 수행할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해 제안된 방법은 입력 영상에 대해서 2레벨 웨이블릿 변환을 수행한 후 저대역 신호인 S$_4$대역에 대해 3레벨 웨이블릿 변환을 수행하기 앞서 S$_4$대역에서의 단화소 이동된 신호를 제거하기 위한 방법으로 보간을 적용한다. 보간된 저 대역 신호 S$_4$대역에 대해서 1레벨 웨이블릿 변환을 수행한 후 최종적으로 3레벨 웨이블릿 변환된 저 대역 신호 S$_{8}$대역에 대해서 초기 움직임 벡터를 구한 다음 나머지 하위 레벨에 위치한 대역에 대해서 기존 다중해상도 움직임 예측 방법과 동일한 방법으로 움직임 예측을 수행함으로써 향상된 부호화 성능을 얻을 수 있었다. 실험 결과 제안한 방법은 기존 다중해상도 움직임 예측 방법과 웨이블릿 변환 영역에서 전역 탐색 방법과 비교해 PSNR면에서 약 1∼2dB정도 향상된 부호화 효율을 나타낼 뿐 아니라, 주관적 화질에서도 개선된 결과를 보였다.
