  • We have studied an efficient threshold level for desired target detection in radar system in the paper. A desired target searching detection method detects desired target according to changing for false alarm probability. This time, false alarm probability is close relation to threshold level. Low threshold level can improve detection for desired target, but detect noise signal. Therefor, This method is not good one. In this paper, we propose efficient threshold level method in order to estimation for desired target. Through simulation, we are analysis and performance to compare general method with proposal method. We show that proposed method is more good proof than general method.

  • Applications of thresholding technique are based on the assumption that object and background pixels in a digital image can be distinguished by their gray level values. For the segmentation of more complex images, it is necessary to resort to multiple threshold selection techniques. This paper describes a new method for multiple threshold selection of gray level images which are not clearly distinguishable from the background. The proposed method consists of three main stages. In the first stage, a probability distribution function for a gray level histogram of an image is derived. Cluster points are defined according to the probability distribution function. In the second stage, fuzzy partition matrix of the probability distribution function is generated through the fuzzy clustering process. Finally, elements of the fuzzy partition matrix are classified as clusters according to gray level values by using max-membership method. Boundary values of classified clusters are selected as multiple threshold. In order to verify the performance of the developed algorithm, automatic inspection process of ball grid array is presented.

  • To estimate the severity of streamflow drought, this study introduced the concept of streamflow drought index based on threshold level method and Seomjingang Dam inflow was applied. Threshold levels used in this study are fixed, monthly and daily threshold, The $1^{st}{\sim}3^{rd}$ analysis results of annual drought, the severe hydrological droughts were occurred in 1984, 1988 and 1995 and the drought lasted for a long time. Annual compared to extreme values of total water deficit and duration, the drought occurred in 1984, 1988, 1995 and 2001 was serious level. In the results of study, because a fixed threshold level is not reflect seasonal variability, at least the threshold under seasonal level was required. Threshold levels determined by the monthly and daily were appropriate. The proposed methodology in this study can be used to forecast low-flow and determine reservoirs capacity.

  • The Heat Anisotropic Diffusion Method has shown very effective for the contour detection of 2-D echocardiogram. To implement this algorithm, we have to choose the parameter C, K, and the threshold level. The choice of C and K are not very sensitive for the good edge detection of the echocardiogram, however the choice of the threshold level is very critical. Until now the threshold level is chosen by the trial and error method. In this paper, we present an automatic threshold decision method from the histogram of the gradient of boundary-like pixels.

  • Inference for discrete event simulations usually relies on either independent replications or, if each simulation run is expensive, the method of batch means applied to a single replications. We present a new method, threshold bootstrap, which equals or exceeds the performance of independent replications or batch means. The method works by resampling runs of data created when a stationary time series crosses a threshold level, such as the sample mean of series. Computational results show that the threshold bootstrap matches or exceeds the performance of these alternative methods in estimating the standard deviation of the sample mean and producing valid confidence intervals.

  • We propose an adaptive threshold detector algorithm for multi-level holographic data storage based on the expectation-maximization (EM) method. In this paper, the signal intensities that are passed through the four-level holographic channel are modeled as a four Gaussian mixture with unknown DC offsets and the threshold levels are estimated based on the maximum likelihood criterion. We compare the bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed algorithm with the non-adaptive threshold detection algorithm for various levels of DC offset and misalignments. Our proposed algorithm shows consistently acceptable performance when the DC offset variance is fixed or the misalignments are lower than 20%. When the DC offset varies with each page, the BER of the proposed method is acceptable when the misalignments are lower than 10% and DC offset variance is 0.001.

  • Enormous methods have been proposed for the detection and segmentation of blur and non-blur regions of the images. Due to the limited available information about the blur type, scenario and the level of blurriness, detection and segmentation is a challenging task. Hence, the performance of the blur measure operators is an essential factor and needs improvement to attain perfection. In this paper, we propose an effective blur measure based on the local binary pattern (LBP) with the adaptive threshold for blur detection. The sharpness metric developed based on LBP uses a fixed threshold irrespective of the blur type and level which may not be suitable for images with large variations in imaging conditions and blur type and level. Contradictory, the proposed measure uses an adaptive threshold for each image based on the image and the blur properties to generate an improved sharpness metric. The adaptive threshold is computed based on the model learned through the support vector machine (SVM). The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using a well-known dataset and compared with five state-of-the-art methods. The comparative analysis reveals that the proposed method performs significantly better qualitatively and quantitatively against all the methods.

  • The submarine's intercept pulse detection detects pulses radiated from enemy surface ships, submarines, and torpedoes, and performs an important function of providing maneuverability and survivability of submarine. Whether or not the intercept pulse is detected is determined by comparing the size of the received pulse with the threshold value by the operator. In the case of intercept pulses, the intensity of the pulses is frequently reduced under the influence of various environmental factors. In the situation, if detection is performed with a fixed threshold, a non-detection problem occurs and persists until the operator sets a low threshold. In this paper, we proposed method for automatically adjusting threshold to reduce the non-detection problem caused by a fixed threshold. Simulation were preformed on 4 cases with different pulse level fluctuation widths, and it was confirmed that the detection performance was improved by increasing the number of detections when a method for automatically adjusting threshold was applied to all cases. Through the proposed method, it is expected that the intercept pulse detection performance will be improved in the marine environment the large fluctuations in pulse level in the future.
