The compression method is necessarily used to send the high quality moving picture that contains a number of data in image processing. In the field of moving picture compression method, the motion estimation algorithm is used to reduce the temporal redundancy. Block matching algorithm to be usually used is distinguished partial search algorithm with full search algorithm. Full search algorithm be used in this paper is the method to compare the reference block with entire block in the search window. It is very efficient and has simple data flow and control circuit. But the bigger the search window, the larger hardware size, because large computational operation is needed. In this paper, we design the full search block matching motion estimator. Using the DCT DC values, we decide luminance. And we apply 3 bit compare-selector using bit plane to I(Intra coded) picture, not using 8 bit luminance signals. Also it is suggested that use the same selective bit for the P(Predicted coded) and B(Bidirectional coded) picture. We compare based full search method with PSNR(Peak Signal to Noise Ratio) for C language modeling. Its condition is the reference block 8$\times$8, the search window 24$\times$24 and 352$\times$288 gray scale standard video images. The result has small difference that we cannot see. And we design the suggested motion estimator that hardware size is proved to reduce 38.3％ for structure I and 30.7％ for structure II. The memory is proved to reduce 31.3％ for structure I and II.

This paper describes a multipath estimation method for Global Positioning System (GPS) dual frequency carrier phase measurements. Multipath is a major error source in high precision GPS applications, i.e., carrier phase measurements for precise positioning and attitude determinations. In order to estimate and remove multipath at carrier phase measurements, an array GPS antenna system has been used. The known geometry between the antennas is used to estimate multipath parameters. Dual frequency carrier phase measurements increase the redundancy of measurements, so it can reduce the number of antennas. The unscented Kalman filter (UKF) is recently applied to many areas to overcome some of the limitations of the extended Kalman filter (EKF) such as weakness to severe nonlinearity. This paper uses the UKF for estimating multipath parameters. A series of simulations were performed with GPS antenna arrays located on a straight line with one reflector. The geometry information of the antenna array reduces the number of estimated multipath parameters from four to three. Both the EKF and the UKF are used as estimation algorithms and the results of the EKF and the UKF are compared. When the initial parameters are far from true parameters, the UKF shows better performance than the EKF.

In this paper, we propose a novel error detection algorithm for LZ78-compressed data. The conventional error detection method adds a certain number of parity bits in transmission, and the receiver checks the number of bits representing '1' to detect the errors. These conventional methods use additional bits resulting in increased redundancy in the compressed data which results in reduced effectiveness of the final compressed data. In this paper, we propose error detection algorithm using the structural properties of LZ78 compression without using additional bits in the compressed data. The simulation results show that the error detection ratio of the proposed algorithm is about 1.3 times better for error detection than conventional algorithms.

This study proposes a template-based method of automatic summarization of multiple news articles using the semantic categories of sentences. First, the semantic categories for core information to be included in a summary are identified from training set of documents and their summaries. Then, cue words for each slot of the template are selected for later classification of news sentences into relevant slots. When a news article is input, its event/accident category is identified, and key sentences are extracted from the news article and filled in the relevant slots. The template filled with simple sentences rather than original long sentences is used to generate a summary for an event/accident. In the user evaluation of the generated summaries, the results showed the 54.l% recall ratio and the 58.l% precision ratio in essential information extraction and 11.6% redundancy ratio.

Emerging applications with high data rates will need to transport bulk data reliably in wireless sensor networks. ARQ (Automatic Repeat request) or Forward Error Correction (FEC) code schemes can be used to provide reliable transmission in a sensor network. However, the naive ARQ approach drops the whole frame, even though there is a bit error in the frame and the FEC at the bit level scheme may require a highly complex method to adjust the amount of FEC redundancy. We propose a bulk data transmission scheme based on erasure-resilient code in this paper to overcome these inefficiencies. The sender fragments bulk data into many small blocks, encodes the blocks with LT codes and packages several such blocks into a frame. The receiver only drops the corrupted blocks (compared to the entire frame) and the original data can be reconstructed if sufficient error-free blocks are received. An incidental benefit is that the frame error rate (FER) becomes irrelevant to frame size (error recovery). A frame can therefore be sufficiently large to provide high utilization of the wireless channel bandwidth without sacrificing the effectiveness of error recovery. The scheme has been implemented as a new data link layer in TinyOS, and evaluated through experiments in a testbed of Zigbex motes. Results show single hop transmission throughput can be improved by at least 20% under typical wireless channel conditions. It also reduces the transmission time of a reasonable range of size files by more than 30%, compared to a frame ARQ scheme. The total number of bytes sent by all nodes in the multi-hop communication is reduced by more than 60% compared to the frame ARQ scheme.

Consideration for parallel operation in a high power system has been increased due to the advantages of parallel operation like as high productivity, simplicity of design, and redundancy of power. Based on the small signal model of DC-DC Converter, the simple and exact power stage model of parallel operation system is derived and the parallel operation system using current balance method for the uniform current distribution among the parallel operation system is proposed. Using Simulation programs, which consists of nonidentical Converter modules and changes the position of master and slave automatically, the current distribution error is kept within the limit in the parallel operation system. To verify the high performance of the proposed Converter system for parallel operation, the parallel operation test, which has 2 Converter modules of 1 kW, is accomplished. Also, the simulation result is good agreement with the experiment result in the transient and starting characteristics.

Recently, automated software testing methods such as fuzzing have been researched to find software vulnerabilities. The purpose of fuzzing is to disclose software vulnerabilities by providing a software with malformed data. In order to increase the probability of vulnerability discovery by fuzzing, we must solve the test suite reduction problem because the probability depends on the test case quality. In this paper, we propose a new method to solve the test suite reduction problem which is suitable for the long test case such as file. First, we suggested the length of test case as a measure in addition to old measures such as coverage and redundancy. Next we designed a test suite reduction algorithm using the new measure. In the experimental results, the proposed algorithm showed better performance in the size and length reduction ratio of the test suite than previous studies. Finally, results from an empirical study suggested the viability of our proposed measure and algorithm for file fuzzing.

The SVC (Scalable Video Coding) scheme can be effectively used for reducing the redundancy and for improving the coding efficiency but, it requires very high computational complexities. In order to accelerate the successful standardization and commercialization of the Advanced Terrestrial-DMB service, it is necessary to overcome this problem. For this aim, in this paper, we propose an efficient aggregated encoder control algorithm, which shows better performances than the conventional control scheme. Computer simulation result shows that the proposed scheme performs about up to 0.3dB better than those of the conventional scheme. Additionally, based on this control scheme, we propose a fast mode decision method by constraining the redundant coding modes based on the statistical properties of the quantization parameter in the spatial scalable encoder. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the proposed control schemes reduce the heavy computational burden up to 12% compared to the conventional scheme, while keeping the objective visual qualify very high.

Frame Rate Up Conversion (FRUC) generate interpolated frames between existing frames using motion estimation and motion compensation interpolation considering temporal redundancy. Falsely-estimated FRUC, however, can generate poor quality frames because FRUC typically uses blending-based interpolation method. As skipping an interpolating process between frames generate mis-estimated motion vectors, could improve Quality of Services of FRUC. In this Paper we analyze luminance histogram and motion vector consistency in frames generating poor quality interpolated frames. We conclude these features could help to be a clue in classifying the frames, which often result in the poor quality of FRUC results through the analysis and experiment.

This paper proposes a global search based motion estimation algorithm for high performance HEVC encoder and its hardware architecture. To eliminate temporal redundancy, motion estimation in HEVC inter-view prediction uses global search and fast search algorithm to search for a predicted block having a high correlation with the current PU in an interpolated reference picture. The global search method predicts the motion of all candidate blocks in a given search area, thus ensuring optimal results, but has a disadvantage of large computation time. Therefore we propose a new algorithm that reduces computational complexity by reusing SAD operation in global search to reduce computation time of inter prediction. As a result of applying the proposed algorithm to standard software HM16.12, the computation time was reduced by 61%, BDBitrate by 11.81%, and BDPSNR by about 0.5% compared with the existing search algorithm. As a result of hardware design, the maximum operating frequency is 255 MHz and the total number of gates is 65.1K.
