Self Organizing Map (SOM) was applied for pattern classification of hydrological and water quality data measured at Jangseong Reservoir on a monthly basis. The primary objective of the present study is to understand better data characteristics and relationship between the data. For the purpose, two SOMs were configured by a methodologically systematic approach with appropriate methods for data transformation, determination of map size and side lengths of the map. The SOMs constructed at the respective measurement stations for water quality data (JSD1 and JSD2) commonly classified the respective datasets into five clusters by Davies-Bouldin Index (DBI). The trained SOMs were fine-tuned by Ward's method of a hierarchical cluster analysis. On the one hand, the patterns with high values of standardized reference vectors for hydrological variables revealed the high possibility of eutrophication by TN or TP in the reservoir, in general. On the other hand, the clusters with low values of standardized reference vectors for hydrological variables showed the patterns with high COD concentration. In particular, Clsuter1 at JSD1 and Cluster5 at JSD2 represented the worst condition of water quality with high reference vectors for rainfall and storage in the reservoir. Consequently, SOM is applicable to identify the patterns of potential eutrophication in reservoirs according to the better understanding of data characteristics and their relationship.

The degree of green naturality (DGN) has played a key role for maintaining the environmental quality from inappropriate developments, although the quality and effectiveness of the mapping of DGN has been under debate. In this study, spatial distribution of degree of green naturality was initially estimated from forest stand maps that were produced from the aerial photo interpretation and extensive field survey. Once the boundary of initial classes of DGN were defined, it were overlaid with normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) data that were derived from the recently obtained Landsat Thematic Mapper data. NDVI was calculated for each pixel from the radiometrically corrected satellite image. There were no significant differences in mean values of vegetation index among the initial DGN classes. However, the satellite derived vegetation index was very effective to delineate the developed and damaged forest lands and to adjust the initial value of DGN according to the distribution of NDVI within each class.

This paper proposes an image-dependent color image enhancement method that uses adaptive luminance enhancement and color emphasis. It effectively enhances details of low-light regions while maintaining well-balanced luminance and color information. To compare the structure similarity and naturalness, we used the tone mapped image quality index (TMQI). The proposed method maintained better structure similarity in the enhanced image than did the space-variant luminance map (SVLM) method or the adaptive and integrated neighborhood dependent approach for nonlinear enhancement (AINDANE). The proposed method required the smallest computation time among the three algorithms. The proposed method can be easily implemented using the field-programmable gate array (FPGA), with low hardware resources and with better performance in terms of similarity.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image can link with the microscopic world through reflecting interaction between electrons and materials. The SEM images are easily subject to blurring distortions during the imaging process. Inspired by the fact that dark channel prior captures the changes to blurred SEM images caused by the blur process, we propose a method to evaluate the SEM images sharpness based on the dark channel prior. A SEM image database is first established with mean opinion score collected as ground truth. For the quality assessment of the SEM image, the dark channel map is generated. Since blurring is typically characterized by the spread of edge, edge of dark channel map is extracted. Then noise is removed by an edge-preserving filter. Finally, the maximum gradient and the average gradient of image are combined to generate the final sharpness score. The experimental results on the SEM blurred image database show that the proposed algorithm outperforms both the existing state-of-the-art image sharpness metrics and the general-purpose no-reference quality metrics.

우리나라의 자생 활엽수종 중에서 상수리나무와 신갈나무는 분포면적이나 자원으로서의 잠재적 효용성을 고려할 때 매우 중요한 수종이다. 본 연구는 다양한 환경인자를 독립변수로 하는 상수리나무와 신갈나무의 지위지수 추정식을 개발하고, 이에 근거한 수종별 적지를 추정하기 위해 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 상수리나무와 신갈나무의 수종별 최종 지위지수 추정식은 모두 5~6개의 환경 인자에 의하여 지위지수를 추정하는 것으로 평가 되었다.수종별 지위지수 추정식에서 채택된 독립변수는 지형인자, 토양인자, 그리고 기후인자를 포괄하고 있어 임지생산력에 영향을 미치는 산림생태계의 특성을 비교적 잘 반영하고 있으며, 설명력을 나타내는 결정계수의 범위는 034~0.50인 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과는 임목의 생육에 다양한 입지조건과 생물환경 인자들이 복합적으로 작용하는 것을 고려하면 지위지수 추정에 큰 무리가 없는 것으로 평가된다. 이와 함께 본 연구에서 개발된 수종별 지위지수 추정식에는 그동안 반영하지 못하였던 기후인자를 독립변수에 포함시켰다는데 의의가 있다. 또한 본 연구에서는 수종별 지위지수 추정식에 근거하여 수종별 적지면적뿐만 아니라 적지의 공간적 분포를 파악하였다. 따라서 앞으로 기후변화시나리오에 따른 수종별 적지분포의 변화를 예측할 수 있는 정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

현재의 IT 환경에서 영상 또는 영상처리 기술은 많은 부분에서 응용이 되고 있고 또한 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 벡터 양자화 방법을 통해 원본 BMP영상을 인덱스 영상과 제안하는 codebook으로 재구성하고 동일한 픽셀 깊이 내에서 고화질의 영상을 디스플레이 할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 즉, $2^n$ 개의 컬러 코드북(맵)를 가지는 영상에 공용 맵 기법을 적용함으로서 $2^{n+1}$ 개의 컬러 코드북 정도의 화질로 표현이 되는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법을 통해 얻어진 출력영상을 원본 BMP영상과 비교했을때 JPEG과 같은 8 bit 인덱스 영상의 출력 시 보다 약 2 dB 정도 높은 PSNR을 제공해주며 이는 9 bit 인덱스를 사용했을 때의 화질과 거의 비슷함을 알 수 있었다.

This study was designed to measure transit dose with an electronic portal imaging device (EPID) in eight patients treated with intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), and to verify the accuracy of dose delivery to patients. The calculated dose map of the treatment planning system (TPS) was compared with the EPID based dose measured on the same plane with a gamma index method. The plan for each patient was verified prior to treatment with a diode array (MapCHECK) and portal dose image prediction (PDIP). To simulate possible patient positioning errors during treatment, outcomes were evaluated after an anthropomorphic phantom was displaced 5 and 10 mm in various directions. Based on 3%/3 mm criteria, the $mean{\pm}SD$ passing rates of MapCHECK, PDIP (pre-treatment QA) for 47 IMRT were $99.8{\pm}0.1%$, $99.0{\pm}0.7%$, and, respectively. Besides, passing rates using transit dosimetry was $90.0{\pm}1.5%$ for the same condition. Setup errors of 5 and 10 mm reduced the mean passing rates by 1.3% and 3.0% (inferior to superior), 2.2% and 4.3% (superior to inferior), 5.9% and 10.9% (left to right), and 8.9% and 16.3% (right to left), respectively. These findings suggest that the transit dose-based IMRT verification method using EPID, in which the transit dose from patients is compared with the dose map calculated from the TPS, may be useful in verifying various errors including setup and/or patient positioning error, inhomogeneity and target motions.

In this study, we evaluated the temporal changes of water quality in the 90 reservoirs in Korea and the relationships between water quality and their environmental factors in the reservoirs for effective management of reservoirs. The majority of study reservoirs were categorized as the eutrophic state based on Carlson's trophic index. Among 90 reservoirs, more than 55.0% were nutrient-rich based on $TSI_{TP}$ in each month, where more than 50.0% were nutrient-rich based on $TSI_{Chl-a}$ from June to November. Seasonal Mann-Kendall test was used to analyze temporal variation of water quality in the selected 60 reservoirs using monthly data from 2004 to 2008. The results showed that 27 (45.0%) reservoirs showed the improvement of water quality based on TP and Chl-a concentrations, while 14 (23.3%) and 11 (18.3%) reservoirs displayed the degradation of water quality based on TP and Chl-a concentrations, respectively. Meanwhile, a self-organizing map classified the study reservoirs into five groups based on differences of hydrogeomorphology (altitude, catchment area, bank height, lake age, etc.). Physicochemical factors and land use/cover types showed clear differences among groups. Finally, hydrogeomorphology of reservoirs were related to water quality, indicating that the hydrogeomorphological characters strongly affect water quality of reservoirs.

본 연구에서는 MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 지면피복 분류자료(MCD12Q1)에서 분류오류로 판단되는 화소들을 재분류함으로써 분류 정확도를 개선하였다. 최근 12년(2001-2012)간의 MODIS 지면피복 분류자료에서 지면피복 유형이 3개 이상으로 분류된 화소는 분류상에 오류가 있다고 판단하여 지면피복 재분류 화소로 선정하였다. 지면피복 재분류를 위해 공간해상도는 1 km이고 시간주기는 8일인 MODIS Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) 자료를 이용하였다. NDVI 자료 중 구름 등으로 오염된 화소를 보정하기 위해 시 공간 연속성을 이용한 보정기법인 Correction based on Spatial and Temporal Continuity (CSaTC) 기법을 이용하였다. 보정된 NDVI 자료를 1개월 주기로 합성한 후 분류 오류로 판단된 화소들에 대해 Iterative Self-Organizing Data Analysis (ISODATA) 기법으로 군집화를 수행하였다. 각 군집별 식생 계절변동 특성을 고려하여 지면피복을 분류한 후 정상으로 판정된 MODIS 지면피복과 합성하여 최종 지면피복 재분류 자료를 산출하였다. 분류 정확도는 GPS를 이용한 현장관측 자료와 유럽우주국의 지상검증참조자료 등 총 138개 지상 관측자료를 이용하여 검증을 수행하였다. 2012년 MODIS 지면피복 분류자료의 정확도는 약 68%이었으나 본 연구에서 재분류한 지면피복자료의 정확도는 약 74%로 나타나 일부 화소들에서 분류 정확도가 개선되었다.
