Two subjects, an expert and a novice, were carefully selected based upon their foot speed. Three dimensional videography was used in the assessment of roundhouse kicking of the Tae-kwon-Do. The local reference frames were imbedded at the trunk, pelvis, thigh and shank. Anatomical angular displacement at the joints were measured by projecting the upper segment's local axes to the lower segment's local reference planes. The local axes again projected to the global reference frames and absolved each segment's movement. The peaks of the anatomical angular displacement curve assessed as the countermovements and the angular movements of the segments in the global space absolved in light of the occurrence of the countermovements. The expert showed larger and more countermovements than the novice at the all segments. The counterrnovement occured more clearly at the trunk than the hip and knee joint and during the preparative movement phase. These countermovements occurrence were due to either by turning upper or lower segments and controlled by the turning direction and sequence of the two nearby segments. It was revealed that the countermovements of the trunk during the preparative movement phase was the important factor of the power kicking.

The necessity of using rapid prototyping(RP) for short-run manufacturing is continuously driving a development of a cost-effective technique that will produce completely-finished quality parts in a very short time. To meet these demands, the improvements in production speed, accuracy, materials, aid cost are crucial. Thus, a new hybrid-RP system performing both deposition and machining in a station is proposed. For the new hybrid RP process to maintain the same degree of process automation as in currently available processes like SLA or FDNI, a sophisticated process planning system is developed. In the process planner, CAD models(STEP AP203) are partitioned into 3D manufacturable volumes called 'Ueposition feature segment"(DFS) after machining features called "machining feature segmenf'(MFS) are extracted from the initial CAD model. Once MFS and DFS are identified, the process planner arranges them into a chain of processes and automatically generates machining information for each DFS and MFS. The goal of this paper is to present a framework for a process planning system for hybrid RP processes and to outline the geometric algorithms involved in developing such an environment.

In this paper, we discuss the characteristics of Segmental-Feature HMM and summarize previous studies of SFHMM. There are several approaches to reduce the number of parameters in the previous studies. However, if the number of parameters decreased, the performance of systems also fell. Therefore, we consider the fast computation approach with preserving the same number of parameters. In this paper, we present the new segment comparison method to speed up the computation of SFHMM without loss of performance. The proposed method uses the three-frame calculation rather than the full(five) frames in the given segment. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed system is better than that of the previous studies.

In a speed coding system using excitation source of voiced and unvoiced, it would be involved a distortion of speech quality in case coexist with a voiced and an unvoiced consonants in a frame. So, I propose TSIUVC(Transition Segment Including UnVoiced Consonant) searching, extraction ad approximation-synthesis method in order to uncoexistent with a voiced and unvoiced consonants in a frame. This method based on a zerocrossing rate and pitch detector using FIR-STREAK Digital Filter. As a result, the extraction rates of TSIUVC are 84.8% (plosive), 94.9%(fricative), 92.3%(affricative) in female voice, and 88%(plosive), 94.9%(fricative), 92.3%(affricative) in male voice respectively, Also, I obain a high quality approximation-synthesis waveforms within TSIUVC by using frequency information of 0.547kHz below and 2.813kHz above. This method has the capability of being applied to speech coding of low bit rate, speech analysis and speech synthesis.

The purpose of this study was to investigate kinematic coordination and control of lower segments in skill process. For the investigation, we examined the difference of resultant linear velocity of segments and angle vs angle graph. Novice subjects were 9 male middle school students who has never been experienced a taekwondo and expert subjects were 7 university taekwondo players. We analyzed kinematic variables of Dollyochagi motion through videographical analysis and the conclusion were as follows. 1. Examining the graph of novice subjects' maximal resultant linear velocity of the thigh, shank, and foot segment, as it gets closer to the end of the training, the maximal resultant linear velocity in each segment increased. Statistical analysis showed the following results; thigh segment caused the increase of speed, using the trunk segment's momentum in the latter term of learning, while the shank segment utilized the momentum of the adjacent proximal segment at the beginning of learning, and the foot segment in the middle of learning. 2. Until the point where the knee joint angle is minimum, as the novice group learn the skill, the flexion of knee and hip joints has changed into the form of coordination pattern in phase. On the other hand, the expert group showed continual coordination pattern in phase that the movement sequences were smooth. From the knee joint maximal flexion to impact timing, all novice and expert groups showed coordination pattern out of phase. 3. From the knee joint maximal flexion to impact timing, the ankle joint was fixed and the knee joint was extended to all the novice stages and expert subjects.

As the layers of artificial neural network deepens, and the dimension of data used as an input increases, there is a problem of high arithmetic operation requiring a lot of arithmetic operation at a high speed in the learning and recognition of the neural network (NN). Thus, this study proposes a data dimensionality reduction method to reduce the dimension of the input data in the NN. The proposed Line-segment Feature Analysis (LFA) algorithm applies a gradient-based edge detection algorithm using median filters to analyze the line-segment features of the objects existing in an image. Concerning the extracted edge image, the eigenvalues corresponding to eight kinds of line-segment are calculated, using 3×3 or 5×5-sized detection filters consisting of the coefficient values, including [0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, and 128]. Two one-dimensional 256-sized data are produced, accumulating the same response values from the eigenvalue calculated with each detection filter, and the two data elements are added up. Two LFA256 data are merged to produce 512-sized LAF512 data. For the performance evaluation of the proposed LFA algorithm to reduce the data dimension for the recognition of handwritten numbers, as a result of a comparative experiment, using the PCA technique and AlexNet model, LFA256 and LFA512 showed a recognition performance respectively of 98.7% and 99%.

Stitching algorithm obtain a descriptor of the feature points extracted from multiple images, and create a single image through the matching process between the each of the feature points. In this paper, a feature extraction and matching techniques for the creation of a high-speed panorama using video input is proposed. Features from Accelerated Segment Test(FAST) is used for the feature extraction at high speed. A new feature point matching process, different from the conventional method is proposed. In the matching process, by tracking region containing the feature point through the Mean shift vector required for matching is obtained. Obtained vector is used to match the extracted feature points. In order to remove the outlier, the RANdom Sample Consensus(RANSAC) method is used. By obtaining a homography transformation matrix of the two input images, a single panoramic image is generated. Through experimental results, we show that the proposed algorithm improve of speed panoramic image generation compared to than the existing method.

In this paper, a novel design algorithm of speed controller for an Induction motor with the inertia variation is proposed. The main contribution of our work is a very robust, reliable and stable procedure for setting of the PI gains against the specified range of the inertia variation of an induction motor using Kharitonovs robust control theory. Therefore, the basic segment of controller design, the variation of induction motor inertia is estimated by the RLS (Recursive least square) method. PI based speed controller is widely used in industrial application for its simple structure and reliable performance. In addition the Kharitonov robust control theory is used for verification stability of closed-loop transfer function. The performance of this proposed design method is proved by digital simulation and experimentation with high performance DSP based induction motor driving system.

An image data compression method for a digital VCR must satisfy special requirements such as high speed playback. various edting capabilities and error concealment to provide immunity to tape dropouts. Taking these requirements requirements into consideration, this paper proposes a new interframe subband coding algorithm for a digital VCR. In the proposed method, continuous input images are fist partitioned into four frequency bands. The lowest frequency subband is coded with 3-D block adaptive quantization that removes the level redundancy within each level. The other higher frequency subbands are coded by an intraframe coding method using the property of the human visual system. To keep reasonable image quality in high speed palyback, a segment forming method in the frequency domaing is also proposed Computer simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has the potential of achieving virtually lossless compression in normal play and produces an image with less mosaic errors in high speed play.

Vehicle localization is one of the core technologies for autonomous driving. Image-based localization provides location information efficiently, and various related studies have been conducted. However, the image-based localization methods using feature points or lane information has a limitation that positioning accuracy may be greatly affected by road and driving environments. In this study, we propose a line segment matching framework for accurate vehicle localization. The proposed framework consists of four steps: line segment extraction, merging, overlap area detection, and MSLD-based segment matching. The proposed framework stably performed line segment matching at a sufficient level for vehicle positioning regardless of vehicle speed, driving method, and surrounding environment.
