This paper presents an adaptive Retinex algorithm for improving dynamic range of image representation. The proposed Retinex algorithm detects degraded brightness by using skewness and the degraded components are compensated with local statistics. In particular, we propose a new compensation function for dynamic range so that effectinve image representation can be achieved. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has the capability to improve the dynamic range with reduction of color degradation.

In Regarding urban geo-spatial information visualization in this study, visualization of physical attribute information is mostly related to the representation of spatial domain and physical objects, and visualization of non-physical attribute information has to do with visualizing citizens and their activity information in the physical environment. In particular, a citizen, one of the non-physical information attributes, is characterized by a constant mobility in the physical environment, and thus visualization of his/her activity information is vital in conveying information because this information may not be depicted with any given, fixed figures. In consideration of this difficulty, this study integrates interrelationship among urban space, human needs, social relations, and lifestyles into a 'high-tech' service where experience in time and space is possible. To analyze the web-service and visualization cases, the study has selected visualization indicators consisting of information representation objective, information representation means, and information representation result. The results of the case analysis through specific indicators set a range in information representation objective, means, and result, thereby forming a user-friendly environment in which representational results are readily available to users, and ultimately expanding the users' selection range coming with a variety of options. This study also assumes that a wide range of service provision is needed to reflect users' needs in developing urban geo-spatial service model, and the display of its results should visualize users' satisfaction to construct the best information needed to users.

Let G(*) be a Borel function applied to a stationary long memory sequence {X$_{i}$} of standard Gaussian random variables. Focusing on the process {G(X$_{i}$)}, the present paper establishes the almost sure representation for the empirical quantile process, that is, Bahadur's representation, and for the empirical process with respect to sample mean. Statistical applications of the representations are also addressed.sed.

The speech signal processing in the auditory system can be analysized based on two representations : Average discharge rate and Temporal discharge pattern. But the average discharge rate representation is restricted by the narrow dynamic range because of the rate saturation and the two tone suppression phenomena, and the temporal discharge pattern representation needs a sophisticate frequency analysis and synchrony measure. In this paper, a simple representation is proposed : using a model considering the interaction of Cochlear fluid-BM movement and a haircell model, the feature of speech signals (formant frequency and pitch of vowels) is easily estimated in the Average Synchronized Rate.

A solid modeller was developed in this paper. Representation scheme of modelling is nonmanifold B-rep. While namy B-rep modellers use edges as basic element of modelling, this modeller is triangle-based. New modelling element, split triangle that is composed of 3 pure half-edges and has no information about the adjoining triangles, was defined to enlarge the range of representation. Corresponding algorithms for Boolean set operations were also developed.

Every mechanical component is fabricated with the variations in its size and shape, and the allowable range of the variation is specified by the tolerance in the design stage. Geometric tolerances specify the size or the thickness of each shape entity itself or its relative position and orientation with respect to datums. Since the range of shape variation can be represented by the variation of the coordinate system attached to the shape, the transformation matrix of the coordinate system would mathematically express the range of shape variation if the interval numbers are inserted for the elements of the transformation matrix. For the shape entity specified by the geometric tolerance with reference to datums, its range of variation can be also derived by propagating the transformation matrices composed of interval numbers. The propagation depends upon the order of precedence of datums.

The frequency response functions of systems incorporating a non-linear cubic stiffness subject to sinusoidal excitation are derived using the Volterra series and the convergence characteristics investigated. It is shown that the series representation of the frequency response functions converges only when the sinewave input amplitude is within a certain range. Within the range of convergence the frequency response function based on the Volterra series approaches the analytical one as more higher order frequency response function terms are included. Proposed is a criterion for the studies systems to predict approximately the range of sinewave input amplitude for which the series representation of the frequency response functions converges.

This essay aims to develop a critical approach of interpretation in examining the panoptical condition of representation that is said to permeate the tradition of modern realism in novels and paintings. In defining this approach, I am interested in the problem or inability of panoptical representation to tell a coherent story of solitude(solitary confinement, isolation, self-absorption, etc.) in a range of texts from prison documents to paintings and novels, and also what might occasion such an inability including social, material, or stylistic contradictions and conflicting epistemological angles. This task potentially anticipates a trajectory of readings and investigations that cuts through the history of panoptical representation, which is outside the scope of this essay. In this writing, I will engage in a series of debates with what I consider as major theories and views of panoptical representation offered by Jeremy Bentham, John Bender, and Michael Fried. Based on this, I will formulate a conceptual or methodological frame of discourse that would envisage an anti-panoptical approach of interpretation. As an attempt to validate this formulation, I will offer a reading of Henry Mayhew's Criminal Prisons of London and Scenes of Prison Life(1862), a case of panoptical representation that produces a peculiar sense of ambivalence while accounting for sites of penal solitude.

The purpose of this study was to investigate narrative structure and meaning structure of pictures In TV reporting. TV reporting consists of linguistic representation and pictural representation with which implicate specific meanings. In the past, the latter has been considered as a kind of added material to the former. But, todays, the latter has been considered more important than the latter in implicating specific meanings. Therefore, the author analysed pictures of TV reporting. Specifically, he selected KBS TV news coverage on '9 11 Disaster of U.S.' with various semiological research methods. Through this study, firstly, It was found that the pictural representation was organized with specific narrative structure applied for linguistic representation. Secondly, its meaning was more important than one of linguistic representation. Thirdly, its styles and structures tended to confine range, abstract and limitation of meanings presented by linguistic representation. Fourthly, images of the pictural representation could be interpreted with narrative structures of linguistic representation.

The purpose of this paper is to obtain representation of the mathematical special functions and the numerical values of the mean square errors for the quasi-ranges in random small smaples ($n \leq 30$) from the Weibull distribution with a shape and a scale parameters, and to estimate the scale parameter by use of unbiased estimator based on the quasi-range. It will be shown that the jackknife estimator of the range is worse than the range of random samples from the given distribution in the sense of the mean square error.
