A novel computational integral imaging technique with enhanced depth sensitivity is proposed. For each lateral position at a given depth plane, the dissimilarity between corresponding pixels of the elemental images is measured and used as a suppressing factor for that position. The intensity values are aggregated to determine the correct depth plane of each plane object. The experimental and simulation results show that the reconstructed depth image on the incorrect depth plane is effectively suppressed, and that the depth image on the correct depth plane is reconstructed clearly without any noise. The correct depth plane is also exactly determined.

Knowledge of camera parameters, such as position, orientation and focal length, is essential to 3D information recovery or virtual object insertion. This paper analyzes the error sensitivity of focal length due to position error of feature points which are employed for self-calibration. We verify the dependency of the focal length on the distance from the principal point to feature points with simulations, and propose a criterion for feature selection to reduce the error sensitivity.

In this paper, the design sensitivity formula for the control of the transient temperature distribution is developed using the direct differentiation method, and used for the optimal design of induction heating coil position. The temperature distribution is calculated using the heat source of the induced eddy current and heat diffusion equation. The physical property variations of the workpiece depending on the temperature are considered. The eddy current distribution and the temperature distribution are calculated with the 2D finite element procedure. The adjoint variable technique is employed in expressing the design sensitivity. The goal of the design is to have the desired distribution of the temperature on a specific region of the sensitivity. The goal of the design is to have the desired distribution of the temperature on a specific region sensitivity. The goal of the design is to have the desired distribution of the temperature on a specific region of the workpiece. The numerical example shows that the proposed design sensitivity analysis for the control of the transient temperature distribution is very useful and practical in the optimal design of induction heating coils.

The characteristics of a photonic crystal fiber sensor with reuleaux triangle are studied by using the finite element method. The wavelength sensitivity of the designed optical fiber sensor is related to the arc radius of the reuleaux triangle. Whether the core area is solid or liquid as well as the refractive index of the liquid core contributes to wavelength sensitivity. The simulation results show that larger arc radius leads to higher sensitivity. The sensitivity can be improved by introducing a liquid core, and higher wavelength sensitivity can be achieved with a lower refractive index liquid core. In addition, the specific channel plated with gold film is polished and then analyte is deposited on the film surface, in which case the position of the resonance peak is the same as that of the complete photonic crystal fiber with three analyte channels being filled with analyte. This means that filling process becomes convenient with equivalent performance of designed sensor. The maximum wavelength sensitivity of the sensor is 10200 nm/RIU and the resolution is $9.8{\times}10^{-6}RIU$.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity among the clinical, transcraial radiographic and MRI diagnosis in internal derangement of the temporomandibular joint. Fourty two temporomandibular joints were assessed in twenty one patients who visited the dental department of Chonnam National University Hospital with the complaint of temporomandibular disorder from Oct. 1990 to Oct. 1991. The results were as follows: 1. In the clinically symptomatic 29 TMJs, 26 (89.7%) joints reveal disc displacement and 3 (10.3%) joints reveal normal disc position on MRI. The sensitivity of clinical diagnosis was 0.77, and the specificity was 0.63. 2. In the normal 22 TMJs on the trans cranial radiographic finding, 16 (72.7%) joints reveal disc displacement, and 6 (27.3%) joints reveal normal disc position on MRI. In the abnormal 20 TMJs on the transcranial radiographic finding, 18 (90%) joints reveal disc displacement, and 2 (10%) joints reveal normal disc position on MRI. The sensitivity of trans cranial radio- graph was 0.53, and the specificity was 0.75.

Sensitivity and calibration considerations are most important in the design and implementation of real control systems. Ideally parameter changes due to various causes should not appreciably affect the system's performances. But all the values of physical components of the plants and controllers as well as the relevant environmental conditions change in time, thus the output performance can be deteriorated during the operating span of the system. Naturally the duty of calibration or the prevention of performance deterioration due to excessive component sensitivity should be provided to the control system. In this paper, we propose a digital controller which has the capability of calibration and gain adjustment as well as the execution of control law. Specifically the problems of gain adjustment and offset calibration in the light source and CdS sensor module for position measurement in a flexible link system are considerably resolved. The parameters of measurement module are prone to change due to environmental brightness conditions resulting in poor steady state performance of the overall control system. Thus a proper method is necessary to provide correction to the changed values of gain and offset in the position measurement module. The proposed controller, whenever necessary, measures the open-loop characteristics, andthen calculates the offset and sensor gain correction values based on the prepared standard measurements. It is applied to the control of a flexible link system with the gain and offset calibration porblems in the light sensor module for position to show the applicability.

Characteristic analysis of the depth measurement system with a laser, a camera and a rotating mirror has been done and the parameter calibration technique for it has been proposed. In the proposed depth measurement system, the laser beam is reflected to the object by the rotating mirror and again the position of the laser beam is observed through the same mirror by the camera. The depth of the object pointed by the laser beam is computed depending on the pixel position on the CCD. There involved several number of internal and external parameters such as inter-pixel distance, focal length, position and orientation of the system components in the depth measurement error. In this paper, it is shown through the error sensitivity analysis of the parameters that the most important parameters in the sense of error sources are the angle of the laser beam and the inter pixel distance. The calibration techniques to minimize the effect of such major parameters are proposed.

We have developed a whole-head MEG system for basic brain research and clinical application. The sensor system consists of a 152 SQUID gradiometer array oriented and located in a suitable way to cover a whole head of the human. The system measures magnetic fields generated by neuronal currents in the brain to get information on the brain activities. For this purpose, the field sensitivity determined by the position, orientation and geometry of the pickup coil as well as amplification factor of the electronic circuits should be known precisely. However, the position and orientation of the pickup coil might be changed from the designed specifications during cool down of the dewar and it is necessary to characterize the field sensitivity. In this study, we made calibration systems to determine the actual position and orientation of the 152 pickup coils and compared the localization results of the N100m source in the auditory cortex.

The high performance position controller named 'Unified PID Position Controller'is presented in part 1 of this paper. In part 2, we provide smart gain adjustment methods including the freedom utilizations for rare sensitivity toward the system parameter variation and for increasing the stiffness of the system. Owing to the provided gain tuning strategy, the overall system characteristics can be stabilized without over-shoot phenomena when the system parameter is changed in the rate of from 0.5 to 2∼4. Moreover, for the actual feasibility to the industrial fields, a simple butt effective anti-windup strategy prohibiting the integral component of the PID position controller from saturation is presented too. All of the presented algorithms are verified through the experiment works with commercial linear motor.
