With the rapid increase of vehicles, various traffic problems, e.g., car crashes, traffic congestions, etc, frequently occur in the road environment of the urban area. To overcome such traffic problems, intelligent transportation systems have been developed with a traffic flow analysis. The traffic flow, which can be estimated by the vehicle counting scheme, plays an important role to manage and control the urban traffic. In this paper, we propose a novel vehicle counting method based on predicted centers of each lane. Specifically, the centers of each lane are detected by using the accumulated movement of vehicles and its filtered responses. The number of vehicles, which pass through extracted centers, is counted by checking the closest trajectories of the corresponding vehicles. Various experimental results on road CCTV videos demonstrate that the proposed method is effective for vehicle counting.

1922년 R. L. Parshall이 고안한 파샬플륨은 현재 사용되고 있는 개수로 유량계로서는 가장 많은 실험자료를 보유하고 있다. 위어에 비해 설치가 어렵고 경제성이 떨어지는 단점도 있지만 설치 후에는 상대적으로 다른 시설보다 토사이동이 원활하다는 장점이 있어 하수 및 폐수 등의 유량측정에 많이 적용되고 있다. 용담저수지의 주요 지천인 금강본류와 구량천 2곳에는 국가가 관리하는 수위관측소가 있다. 설치지점의 지명을 따 동향수위관측소와 천천수위관측소로 운용되고 있으며, 동향수위관측소 약 170 m 하류와 천천수위관측소 약 2.5 km 상류 2곳에 갈수기 유량조사를 위한 파샬플륨이 설치되었다. 동향파샬프륨과 천천파샬플륨은 갈수기 유량을 고려하여 Iso 9826의 파샬플륨 번호 10(Parshall flume No. 10)과 유사한 규격(설치당시 목부(Throat)폭 5ft))으로 설계되었으며, 플륨으로 흐름을 유도하는 유입부(Entrance section) 좌 우 횡단방향에 보를 연결하여 상대적으로 하폭이 넓은 자연하천에 적용하였다. 수년간의 현장운용 결과, 파샬플륨의 가장 큰 장점이었던 원활한 토사이동이 보로 인해 차단되고, 누적된 토사가 흐름을 왜곡시킴으로서 플륨내 수위로부터 환산한 유량값에 비교적 큰 오차를 발생시 킬 수 있음을 알게 되었다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제의 원인이 상류에 누적된 토사에 있음을 규명하고 대처방안을 제시하기위해 동향파샬플륨을 대상으로 수행되었다. 플륨을 통한 유량자료의 신뢰도는 (1) 플륨내 정밀유량측정, (2) 50 m 하류에서의 도섭법에 의한 유량측정 그리고 (3) 130 m 하류에서의 도섭법에 의한 유량측정을 통하여 비교 및 검증하였다. 조사결과 플륨내 수위는 상류에 퇴적된 토사로 인해 일정하지 않으며 이로 인해 유량에 오차가 발생하고 있음이 확인되었다. 또한 본 연구에서는 자연하천에서의 파샬플륨 적용을 위해 토사이동을 고려한 설비의 구조개량을 병행하였다. 새로운 형태의 파샬플륨은 '에코플륨'이라 명명하였으며 원활한 토사이동과 인공구조물에 의한 자연경관 훼손을 방지할 수 있는 두 가지의 효과가 기대된다. 현재 실물모형의 제작이 완료되어 실내실험을 수행하고 있으며, 머지않은 장래에 현장설치가 가능하다고 판단된다.

In this paper, an enhanced initial ranging algorithm for large-cell coverage fixed wireless communication system is proposed. In typical wireless communication system such as WiBro, because a round-trip delay between a transmitter and a receiver is within one OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) symbol duration, a frequency-domain differential correlation method is generally used. However, the conventional method cannot be applied due to an increase of a maximum time delay in large-cell system. In case of an accumulative differential method, estimation errors can occur because of frequent sign transitions. In this paper, therefore, we propose an algorithm which can estimate a total timing offset in a ranging channel structure for 15 km cell. The proposed method can improve performance by sign comparison based sign error correction rule between the estimated values and using a weighting scheme based on channel correlation, the number of accumulations, and the noise reduction effect in normalization process. Also, it can estimate the integer timing offset of symbol duration by comparing peak-powers after compensating for the fractional timing offset of symbol duration.

Onions are grown in a few specific regions of Korea that depend on the climate and the regional characteristic of the production area. Therefore, when onion yields are to be estimated, it is reasonable to use a statistical model in which both the climate and the region are considered simultaneously. In this paper, using a spatial panel regression model, we predicted onion yields with the different weather conditions of the regions. We used the spatial auto regressive (SAR) model that reflects the spatial lag, and panel data of several climate variables for 13 main onion production areas from 2006 to 2015. The spatial weight matrix was considered for the model by the threshold value method and the nearest neighbor method, respectively. Autocorrelation was detected to be significant for the best fitted model using the nearest neighbor method. The random effects model was chosen by the Hausman test, and the significant climate variables of the model were the cumulative duration time of sunshine (January), the average relative humidity (April), the average minimum temperature (June), and the cumulative precipitation (November).

The growing possibility of the disaster due to severe weather calls for disaster prevention and water management measures in South Korea. In order to prevent a localized heavy rain from occurring, the rainfall must be observed and predicted quantitatively. In this study, we developed an adjustment algorithm to estimate the radar precipitation applying to the local gauge correction (LGC) method which uses geostatistical effective radius of errors of the radar precipitation. The effective radius was determined from the errors of radar rainfall using geostatistical method, and we adjusted radar precipitation for four heavy rainfall events based on the LGC method. Errors were decreased by about 40% and 60% in adjusted hourly rainfall accumulation and adjusted total rainfall accumulation for four heavy rainfall events, respectively. To estimate radar precipitation for localized heavy rain events in summer, therefore, we believe that it was appropriate for this study to use an adjustment algorithm, developed herein.

This paper analyzes the long-run brand Bacchus's TV advertisement narrative, which copes actively with changes in social and cultural circumstances. The paper focuses on the types of narrative and the consequent semantic effects used in the television advertisement of Bacchus. Through this, we aim to investigate the processes of brand strategies and transitions taken by the brand that made it a solid one. In conclusion, the summaries of distinctive meaning and value of long-run brand by examining the narrative of Bacchus in TV ads are as follows. Firstly, the narrative should be reflected in consumer's demands closely associated with changes in social and cultural circumstances. Secondly, a strong brand identity can be built by consistent management of brand image and through the cultivated effects. Lastly, it forms a bond of relationship between socio-cultural context and consumers, and functions as a communication message.

Long-haul transmission of multiple transmission signals, such as wavelength division multiplexed (WDM), has became possible, because the signal distortion caused by chromatic dispersion and nonlinearity can be compensated by applying dispersion management, optical phase conjugation and combination of the two methods into the transmission link. The biggest obstacle to applying optical phase conjugation to an optical link is that the optical phase conjugator (OPC) must be located only in the middle of the entire transmission line. This paper shows that the location constraints of OPC can be overcome through the application of an asymmetric dispersion map. The location of the OPC considered in this paper exists between the 8th and 9th fiber spans out of a total of 48 fiber spans. Additionally, the dispersion map has an asymmetric cumulative dispersion profile with respect to the OPC. As a result of the simulation, it was confirmed that the distortion compensation effect of the WDM channel can be increased compared to the link to which the traditional dispersion map is applied, depending on the overall shape of the cumulative dispersion profile distribution of the proposed asymmetric dispersion map and the selection of the profile slope.

This study was aimed to determine the effect of high molecular weight chitosan treatment on the decay incidence and fruit quality in strawberries. Preharvest spray of chitosan (0.2%) effectively reduced the incidence of grey mould and increased fruit firmness. Chitosan application was also effective on remaining of surface gloss. This is probably due to coating effect. Physiological disorders were not found in treatment of 4 sprays. Internal quality such as soluble solid content and acidity seemed not to be affected by chitosan application. The effect of chitosan on keeping freshness was clear in fruit without physical damage at harvest, but much less effective in injured fruit. Postharvest application of chitosan did not affect fruit quality. Above results indicated that chitosan is an alternative to keep strawberry quality through delaying decay and keeping firmness.

Comparative insecticidal efficiency between compounded pyrethroids and its preparations cooperated with several synergists was studied. As main components, Group A contained Permethrine.Phthalthrine, Group B contained Permethrine.Furameth rine and Group C contained Phthalthrine.Dichlorvos. As synergists Piperonyl Butoxide (P.B.O.), N-Octylbicycloheptene dicarboximide (MGK-264), Octachlorodipropylether (8-421) was cooperated in each group. These preparations was treated to either Blattella G. or Musca D. for comparing about insecticidal efficiency[Knock-down rate ($KT_{50},\;KT_{90}$) and cumulative mortaility(percent/hrs)]. When the synergists was added to each Group, the insecticidal efficiency was improved. The most potent synergists was P.B.O. and the potency was decreased in the rank order of S-421>MGK-264. The more the concentration of synergists was increased, the more the insecticidal efficiency was improved. The rank order was $1:5{\geq}1:4>1.3$ in all three groups. The mortality (percent) according to time was similar to either $KT_{50}\;or\;KT_{90}$. Knock-down rate was appropriate parameter for the indicator about potency.

This study analyzed the effects of M&A announcement before and after the 1998 amendments of 'Securities and Exchange Act' through the event study. The M&A firms turned out to gain the abnormal returns during the entire periods. The cumulative average abnormal returns of M&A firms was 1.38%(market adjusted model) or 5.37%(industry-adjusted model) higher after the 1998 amendments than before. The differences of performance of M&A were significant also in case of the related M&A, vertical or horizontal M&A, M&A in booms. In regression analysis, the 1998 amendments of Act was the significant factor to explain the cumulative abnormal returns.
