The direction component uses mainly the sobel and FFT method. The sobel method is difficult to set representative direction when we wish to extract representative direction when we wish to extract representative direction component and the complicated processing process of sobel mask because same value appears in the low provision image or high provision image and we cannot accumulate tilt size in case of making accumulate after making unit vector to pixel. The method that uses FFT conversion for direction extraction is possible in case that ridge has correct direction specification and must use a special direction filter. After thinning the binary image to supplement above weak point in the paper, we extract direction component by pixel unit, and we extract the most direction components of pixel that exist in block of 8${\times}$8 pixels size as representative direction of ridge.

This study analyzed methodologies for determining the representative direction of a storm event. The mean direction, median direction, and modal direction of von Mises distribution were considered as representative directions. In addition, the results with and without considering the storm moving distance were also compared. As results, the modal directions of von Mises distribution were found to explain the directional characteristics of a moving storm much better than other methods. Also, it was found that the storm moving distance has a significant effect on the determination of representative directions of a moving storm, whose uncertainty can also be decreased significantly by considering the moving distance.

This study quantified the storm direction for a river basin by applying the von Mises distribution, also determined the representative storm direction. Additionally, the whole procedure was repeated for several storm types such as frontal, typhoon and convective storms for their comparison. From the results derived by analyzing a total of 101 storm events for the Naesung river basin, the von Mises distribution was found to explain the directional characteristics of storms. The representative moving directions derived for three different storm types were significantly different each other, which is coincident with the climate of Korea. The results derived in this study could be helpful to estimate more quantitatively the difference in the runoff response with respect to the moving direction of a storm.

The flame speed may be decomposed into the burning speed and the flame transport speed. The flame transport speed is affected considerably by the flow direction, variation rate of flow direction, and flow speed in the combustion chamber. Especially, the flow direction and the variation rate of flow direction at the spark plug location during the ignition period have an important effect on the ignition process and the early flame propagation process. We measured the flow direction component and the variation rate of flow direction with a hot wire probe at the spark plug location. It was shown that the representative flow direction of ignition period is the right-vertical direction of crank shaft and it was used to investigate the variation rate of flow direction.

A microstructure-based finite element simulation was conducted to predict the plastic strain ratio (R-value) of a dual-phase (DP) steel. The representative volume elements (RVEs) concept was adopted for the image-based FE modeling and a 3D model was constructed using sequential 2D images. Each phase was considered with the von-Mises yield criterion and the Swift model. The Swift parameters were defined by the empirical equations based on the chemical composition. The developed model was applied to analyze the effect of residual stress on the R-value and stress distribution. In order to consider the residual stress development after cold rolling, 10 % compression was applied in the thickness direction and unloaded before the tensile stress was applied in the rolling direction. The results showed a reasonable prediction for the R-value evolution: a sharp increase at small strains was well described and a transition followed in the downward direction. The R-value evolution was analyzed using the stress distribution change on the π-plane

In this paper, a method of self-organizing for fuzzy logic controller(FLC) through learning of the proper direction of coritrol is proposed. In case of designing a self-organizing FLC for unknown dynamic plants based on the gradient descent method, it is difficult to identify the desirable direction of the change of control inpul. in which the error would be decreased. To resolve this problem, we propose a method as fo1lows:at first, assign representative values for the direction of change of error with respect to control input to each partitioned region of the states, and then, learn the fuzzy control rules using the reinforced representative values through iterative trials. 'The proposed self-organizing FLC has simple structure and it is easy to design. The validity of the proposed method is proved by the computer simulation for an inverted pendulum system.

In this paper, we propose a new approach for content-based video retrieval using non-parametric based motion classification in the shot-based video indexing structure. Our system proposed in this paper has supported the real-time video retrieval using spatio-temporal feature comparison by measuring the similarity between visual features and between motion features, respectively, after extracting representative frame and non-parametric motion information from shot-based video clips segmented by scene change detection method. The extraction of non-parametric based motion features, after the normalized motion vectors are created from an MPEG-compressed stream, is effectively fulfilled by discretizing each normalized motion vector into various angle bins, and by considering the mean, variance, and direction of motion vectors in these bins. To obtain visual feature in representative frame, we use the edge-based spatial descriptor. Experimental results show that our approach is superior to conventional methods with regard to the performance for video indexing and retrieval.

Most of life thing including human being have tendency of reaction with inherently their own pattern against environmental change caused by such as light, sound, smell etc. Especially, a sense of direction often works as a very important factor in such reaction. Actually, human or animal lift that can react instantly to a stimulus determine their action with a sense of direction to a stimulant. In this paper, we try to propose how to give a sense of direction to a robot using sound being representative stimulant, and tracking sensors being able to detect the direction of such sound source. We also try to propose how to determine the relative directions among devices or robots using the digital compass and the RSSI on wireless network.

A numerical study with Envi-met model is experimented to investigate the characteristics of wind pattern in Gangwon innovation city. In all case, most conditions such as wind speed, temperature, and surface are considered as the same, but wind direction is the only different factor. The wind directions considered in this study have a meaning of prevailing wind direction. When the prevailing wind with the direction of $247^{\circ}$ blows into the city, the ventilation passage toward the outside of city is formed and the stagnation of air is not expressed. In case of having the direction of $270^{\circ}$, most evident ventilation passages are composed. When the inflow wind direction is the north, $0^{\circ}$, there is some possibility of stagnation phenomenon. The case where the representative wind direction of three kind will flow with development, in compliance with the building is caused by with screening effect of some and shows a true stagnation phenomenon, wishes in the park and flowing water and the greens area to be for a long time formed and the wind direction is maintained.

This study is a fundamental research to propose the preservation and management technique of urban skylines in case of Seoul City, and to find landscape resources that based on investigation of characteristics of urban landscape. The question are is designed for citizens' perception of urban landscaped. The results of this study is summarized as follows.; 1) The representative landscapes in Seoul City are chiefly Mt.Nam, Hand River, 63 Bldg, Kyungbokgung, Namdaemum, etc. The difference of the reasons of reasons of chosing for representative landscapes is that there must be a certain difference in direction of preservation and management of the landscape. 2) The ward which don't have obvious representative landscapes requires process survey and designation for representative landscapes, and technique for strenghtening them. 3) The major places of viewing the impressive or beautiful landscape are classfied into places of viewing whole Seoul City(ex;Mt.Nam, 63 Bldg, Seoul Toewr, MT.Kwanak, etc) and places of viewing Han River(ex;Youido Square, Olympic Road, Riverside parks of Han River etc). 4) For conservation and management of urban landscapes, it is requisitive for harmony of preservation and management technique between Seoul City and each ward.
