Gamut mapping is a technique that acts on cross-media color reproduction to transform a color between devices for the purpose of enhancing the appearance or preserving the appearance of an image. Gamut mapping essentially produces color conversion error which depends the gamut mapping method, source and destination devices, and sample points for gamut modeling. For color space conversion between monitor colors and printer colors, empirical representation using sample measurements is currently widely utilized. Color samples are uniformly selected in the device space such as CMY or RGB, represented as color patches, and then measured. However, in the case of printer, these color samples are not evenly distributed inside the printer gamut and the color conversion error is increased. Accordingly, this paper introduces a equally distributed color sampling method in CIELAB space, a device- independent color space, to reduce color conversion error, and the performance is analyzed via color space conversion experiments using tetrahedral interpolation.

Delivery of high quality video over a wide area network with large number of users poses great challenges for the video communication system. To ensure video quality, multiple descriptions have recently attracted various attention as a way of encoding and visual information delivery over wireless network. We propose a new efficient multiple description coding (MDC) technique. Quincunx lattice sub-sampling is used for generating multiple descriptions of an image. In this paper, we propose the application of a directional discrete cosine transform (DCT) to a sub-sampled quincunx lattice to create an MDC representation. On the decoder side, the image is decoded from the received side information. If all the descriptions arrive successfully, the image is reconstructed by combining the descriptions. However, if only one side description is received, decoding is executed using an interpolation process. The experimental results show that such the directional DCT can achieve a better coding gain as well as energy packing efficiency than the conventional DCT with re-alignment.

본 논문에서는 베이시안 초해상도 영상처리시 저해상도 영상들을 고해상도 격자에 맞게 정합해서 업샘플링(upsampling)을 하는 새로운 방식에 대해 제안한다. 제안하는 업샘플링 방식은 각 장을 따로 보간하는 방식과 달리 여러 저해상도 영상의 고주파 정보가 고해상도 영상 격자의 모든 위치에 적절히 영향을 미칠 수 있도록 여러 장의 저해상도 영상의 고주파 정보를 함께 사용하여 보간한다. 보간하는 방법은 B-스플라인 (B-Spline) 기반 비정규 리샘플링(non-uniform resampling)을 기반으로 초해상도 영상처리에 맞도록 적용한다. 실험결과를 통해 일반적으로 적용되는 0-삽입(zero-padding) 업샘플링 방식과 쌍일차 보간법(bilinear interpolation) 등을 적용할 때의 효과를 살펴보고, 제안하는 방식이 일반적인 방식을 사용하는 것에 비해 정량적, 정성적으로 고해상도 정보를 더 정확히 생성해내는 것을 확인한다.

In order to analyze the mechanical phenomena of three dimensional elato-plastic behavior caused by welding of thick plate, it is necessary to solve exactly the three dimensional unstationary heat conduction problem considering the moving effect of heat source and the temperature-dependence of material properties. In this paper, the three-dimensional unstationary heat conduction problem is formulated by using an isoparametric finite element method. Thereafter, the transient temperature distributions, according to time, of thick plate during welding are defined from the results calculated by the developed computer program.

As the Seoul metropolitan city has the largest numbers of population and vehicles, the citizens can be exposed to hazardous air pollutants(HAPs) mainly from the vehicular exhaust and human activities. In this study, we proposed a systematic method for the selection of priority monitoring areas for HAPs using Geographic Information System (GIS). First, emission parameters(emission data, vehicle registration, monitoring data, and so on) and population parameters (population and population density) were plotted using the inverse distance weighted (IDW) interpolation. Then, the interpolation data for individual parameters, which were normalized between 1 and 5 points, were compiled for 270 grids with a resolution of $2km{\times}2km$. The total score of each grid was calculated using weights(1~5) for the individual parameters. The final ranking of each grid was assigned by four scenarios with varying fractions of the emission and population parameters from 50 : 50 to 80 : 20. Consequently, nine grids were suggested as priority monitoring areas, and all of them are located in the southwestern part of Seoul.

A CMOS folding ADC with transistor differential pair folding circuit for low power consumption and high speed operation is presented in this paper. This paper explains the theory of transistor differential pair folding technique and many advantages compared with conventional folding and interpolation circuits. A ADC based on transistor differential pair folding circuit uses 16 fine comparators and 32 interpolation resistors. So it is possible to achieve low power consumption, high speed operation and small chip size. Design technology is based on fully standard 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ double poly 2 metal n-well CMOS process. A power consumption is 45mW at 2.5V applied voltage and 250MHz sampling frequency. The INL and DNL are within $\pm$0.15LSB and $\pm$0.15LSB respectively. The SNDR is approximately 50dB at 10MHz input frequency.

In this paper, level instrument is implemented using beat frequency for distance measurement which means the difference between Tx and Rx signal frequency from FMCW Radar Level Transmitter. Beat frequency is analyzed through Fast Fourier Transform of which frequency precision can be improved by applying Zoom FFT. Distance precision is improved from 146.5[mm] to 5[mm] using the advantage of Zoom FFT which can raise the frequency precision without changing the sampling frequency or FFT point number to be fixed in the beginning of designing signal processing. Also, measurement error can be reduced within 2[mm] by incresing the FFT points using the method of Spline interpolation. For verifying the effectiveness of this Zoom FFT to FMCW Radar Level Transmitter, test bench is made to measure the distance for every 1[mm] between 700[mm] and 2000[mm] and measurement error can be checked in the range of ${\pm}2$[mm].

In this paper, we present a color interpolation algorithm that uses novel edge direction estimator and region classifier. The proposed edge direction estimator accurately determines the edge direction based on the correlation between the images obtained by the channel separated and down-sampled Bayer color filter array(CFA) pattern. The correlation is defined based on the similarity between the edge direction in the local region of the image and the shifting direction of the images. Also, the region of an image is defined as the flat, the edge, and the pattern-edge regions, where the edges are appeared repeatedly. When all the pixels in the image are classified into the three different regions, each pixel is interpolated horizontally or vertically according to the estimated direction. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the conventional edge-directed methods on objective and subjective criteria.

Most harmonic synthesis methods using phase information employ a quadratic or cubic phase interpolation. The methods are computationally expensive to implement because every component sinewave must be synthesized on a per sample basis. In this paper, we propose a fast harmonic synthesis method for sinusoidal speech/audio coding based on the quadratic and cubic phase function to overcome the complexity problem. To derive the fast harmonic synthesis method, we define the over-sampling function and phase modulation function by constraining the parameter of phase function to be independent for harmonic index and derive the fast synthesis method using IFFT. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly reduce the complexity of conventional cosine synthesis method while maintaining the performance.
