A hardware implementation of MOD(moving object detection) algorithm using EGML(effective Gaussian mixture learning)- based background subtraction to detect moving objects in video is described. Some approximations of EGML calculations are applied to reduce hardware complexity, and pipelining technique is adopted to improve operating speed. The MOD processor designed in Verilog-HDL has been verified by FPGA-in-the-loop verification using MATLAB/Simulink. The MOD processor has 2,218 slices on the Virtex5-XC5VSX95T FPGA device and its throughput is 102 MSamples/s at 102 MHz clock frequency. Evaluation results of the MOD processor for 12 images in the IEEE CDW-2012 dataset show that the average recall value is 0.7631, the average precision value is 0.7778 and the average F-measure value is 0.7535.

The contents of reef container face a risk of being damaged if the interior temperature and certain maintenance conditions for the shipments cannot be met. Currently, the temperature and other conditions within a reefer container is checked manually and periodically by someone in charge of it. Since it means that there is no real-time checking of the conditions, if something goes wrong, there is no immediate means of correcting the problem. This paper introduces reefer container monitoring system, that checks interior temperature of container on real-time by sensor nodes attaching reefer container using wireless sensor network. It senses the temperature, amount of light, motion and the change in speed of the objects that distributes sensors throughout the desired places and sends the data wirelessly to anyone interested. Because the prosed technique can check the temperature and other conditions within a reefer container on real-time basis, it enables efficient and effective maintenance of temperature and other conditions

Recently, image processing technology for autonomous driving by recognizing objects and lanes through camera images to realize autonomous vehicles is being studied. Haze reduces the visibility of images captured by the camera and causes malfunctions of autonomous vehicles. To solve this, it is necessary to apply the haze removal function that can be processed in real time to the camera. Therefore, in this paper, the fog removal method of Sim with excellent performance is implemented with hardware capable of real-time processing. The proposed hardware was designed using Verilog HDL, and FPGA was implemented by setting Xilinx's xc7z045-2ffg900 as the target device. As a result of logic synthesis using Xilinx Vivado program, it has a maximum operating frequency of 276.932MHz and a maximum processing speed of 31.279fps in a 4K (4096×2160) high-resolution environment, thus satisfying the real-time processing standard.

A particle system is defined as a collection of primitive particles that together represent irregular and ever-changing objects such as smoke, clouds, waterfalls, and explosions. A particle system can be a powerful tool for modeling a deformable object's motion and change of form since it has dynamic properties with time. As an object becomes more complicated and shows more chaotic behavior, however, we need much more parameters for describing its characteristics completely. Consequently, the conventional particle system leads to difficulty in managing all of the parameters properly since one parameter can affect the others. Moreover, motion equations for representing particles' behavior are usually approximated to gain speed-ups. The inevitable errors in calculating the equations can cause an unexpected outcome. In this paper, we present a new approach of applying fuzzy contol to mage particles' motion and attributes changes over time. We also give an implementation result of a fuzzy particle system to show the feasibility of the proposed method. Applications of the system to explosions, nebulae, volcanos, and grass are presented.

The human voice is a convenient method of information transfer between different objects such as between men, men and machine, between machines. The development of information and communication technology, the voice has been able to transfer farther than before. The way to communicate, it is to convert the voice to another form, transmit it, and then reconvert it back to sound. In such a communication process, a vocoder is a method of converting and re-converting a voice and sound. The CELP (Code-Excited Linear Prediction) type vocoder, one of the voice codecs, is adapted as a standard codec since it provides high quality sound even though its transmission speed is relatively low. The EVRC (Enhanced Variable Rate CODEC) and QCELP (Qualcomm Code-Excited Linear Prediction), variable bit rate vocoders, are used for mobile phones in 3G environment. For the real-time implementation of a vocoder, the reduction of sound quality is a typical problem. To improve the sound quality, that is important to know the size and shape of noise. In the existing sound quality improvement method, the voice activated is detected or used, or statistical methods are used by the large mount of data. However, there is a disadvantage in that no noise can be detected, when there is a continuous signal or when a change in noise is large.This paper focused on finding a better way to decrease the reduction of sound quality in lower bit transmission environments. Based on simulation results, this study proposed a preprocessor application that estimates the SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) using the spectral SNR estimation method. The SNR estimation method adopted the IMBE (Improved Multi-Band Excitation) instead of using the SNR, which is a continuous speech signal. Finally, this application improves the quality of the vocoder by enhancing sound quality adaptively.

CenterNet, a novel object detection algorithm without anchor based on key points, regards the object as a single center point for prediction and directly regresses the object's height and width. However, because the objects have different sizes, directly regressing their height and width will make the model difficult to converge and lose the intrinsic relationship between object's width and height, thereby reducing the stability of the model and the consistency of prediction accuracy. For this problem, we proposed an algorithm based on the regression of the diagonal half-length and the center angle, which significantly compresses the solution space of the regression components and enhances the intrinsic relationship between the decoded components. First, encode the object's width and height into the diagonal half-length and the center angle, where the center angle is the angle between the diagonal and the vertical centreline. Secondly, the predicted diagonal half-length and center angle are decoded into two length components. Finally, the position of the object bounding box can be accurately obtained by combining the corresponding center point coordinates. Experiments show that, when using CenterNet as the improved baseline and resnet50 as the Backbone, the improved model achieved 81.6% and 79.7% mAP on the VOC 2007 and 2012 test sets, respectively. When using Hourglass-104 as the Backbone, the improved model achieved 43.3% mAP on the COCO 2017 test sets. Compared with CenterNet, the improved model has a faster convergence rate and significantly improved the stability and prediction accuracy.

Interest in and study on 3 dimensional pictures has been continued since visual media showing moving images was invented. From simple anaglyph wearing glasses to hologram making perfect 3 dimensional objects by recording phase data of reflected light, as well as amplitude and wave, speed and scope of technical development are quicker and wider, respectively. However, despite such development of technology, there is still lack of study on aesthetical, industrial and contents developing area, except for technology of 3 dimensional images. Unlike the interest in 3 dimensional images, even a theoretical frame for the approach to theoretical areas of 3 dimensional images has not been established. Especially, few experiment and study on directing aesthetics have been conducted, with exception of areas in entertainment documentaries for 3 dimensional feeling or some latest 3D animations. As a result, this study will try to find alternatives to directing aesthetics of realistic 3 dimensional movies to be developed in future by studying directing grammar and aesthetics of digital 3 dimensional movies and finding and analyzing difference between 3 dimensional images and 2 dimensional images drawn on the plane.

The feedback interference channels are those made through the multipaths that are built by moving and stationary objects around transmit and receive antennas mounted at the same point. This paper describes the method to measure the feedback interference channels in the rural regions and sides of highways and the analysis on channel characteristic parameters. Using the measured samples, we estimated scattering functions, delay power spectra, and Doppler power spectra, and we analyzed the channels using eight parameters including coherence bandwidth, coherence time, maximum excess delay, average excess delay, rms delay spread, Doppler shift, Doppler spread, and spread factor, and delay and Doppler cumulative distributions. Even though many observations are made, note that the feedback signals of high Doppler frequencies and large energy are observed in the sides of highways due to high speed vehicles while low Doppler frequencies occurred in the rural region due to rare traffic.

This study suggests a method of detecting the still object, which becomes a cause of danger within the crossroad. The Inverse Perspective Transform was performed in order to make the object size consistent by being inputted the real-time image from CCTV that is installed within the crossroad. It established the detection area in the image with the perspective transform and generated the adaptative background image with the use of the moving information on object. The detection of the stop object was detected the candidate region of the stop object by using the background-image differential method. To grasp the appearance of truth on the detected candidate region, a method is proposed that uses the gradient information on image and EHD(Edge Histogram Descriptor). To examine performance of the suggested algorithm, it experimented by storing the images in the commuting time and the daytime through DVR, which is installed on the cross street. As a result of experiment, it could efficiently detect the stop vehicle within the detection region inside the crossroad. The processing speed is shown in 13~18 frame per second according to the area of the detection region, thereby being judged to likely have no problem about the real-time processing.
