Generally, cartoon images are simple and involve a small number of colors and often include large homogeneous regions with same color or gradient. In this paper, effective compression method for complementary quadtree was suggested for cartoon images, by using those properties. And with progressive transmission, this method involves a progressive increase in the image resolution at the receiver from a lower to a higher resolution during the transmission of data. This is an effective way of using a limited transmission channel, because, after estimating the value of the data in the early transmission period, a decision can be made whether or not to proceed with the transmission of the remaining part. Since the proposed method is lossless and involves progressive transmission, it was compared with progressive PNG and progressive GIF, which had same functions.

The properties of sea water in deep-sea are still quite poorly understood, even though those of the surface water have been sufficiently investigated. In this study, the specific conductance of sea water was measured under the circumstances : pressure of 1 to 2,000 bars and temperature 10 to $35^{\circ}C$ as well as over the concentration of 6.228 to 19.372 per mil chloronity. The specific conductance gave the linearity with the given pressure. The initial slope, ${\triangle}k/{\triangle}P$ of the specific conductance n versus the pressure P over the pressure 1 to 1,000 bars showed a large positive value, but the second slope over the pressure 1,000 to 2,000 bars was relatively less positive value. And our equations were comparable with the empirical formular obtained by Horns et al. (1963).

This research was designed to investigate the possibility to teach function concept and graph representation of functions in explicit manner toward at elementary level. Eight class-hours instruction was given to four Grade 5(age 11) students, and dynamic geometry software GSP was partially used in the class. Results indicate that the students could conceptualize the function relation, interpret linear function graphs, recognize the meaning of their slopes, and discuss the relationships among linear graphs and real life situation. Results also indicate that GSP helped students to recognize the relation between dots and the linear graph clearly and that GSP-line graph did decisive role for children to understand the meaning of graph representation of function.

In this paper, we implement a real-time textile dimension inspection system. It can detect various types of real defects which determine the quality of fabric product, defect positions of textile, classify the distortion angel of moving textile and the density. In the implemented system, we measure the density of textile using zone-crossing method with optical lens to solve the noise and real-time problems. And we compensate distortion angel of textile with the classification of distortion types using gaussian gradient and mean gradient features. And also, it detecs real defects of textile and its positions using gray level co-occurrence matrix features. The implemented texile demension inspection systemcan inspect textile dimensions such as density, distortion angle, defect of textile and defect position at real-time. In the implemented proposed texitile dimension inspection system, It is possible to calculate density and detect default of textile at real-time dimension inspection system, it is possible to calculate density and detect default of textile at textile states throughout at all the significant working process such as dyeing, manufacturing, and other texitle processing.

비점오염원은 강우시 토지이용형태에 따라 유출특성이 다양하게 나타나며, 특히 강우 초기에 고농도의 유출수가 수계로 유입하게 된다. 또한 강우량, 강우강도, 선행건기일수 등은 비점오염물질의 농도에 영향을 미치며, 특히 선행건기일수가 길고 강우강도가 강한 강우사상일 경우 고농도의 오염물질이 배출되는 것으로 나타나고 있다(안태웅 등, 2012). 이에 본 연구에서는 3년간(2010년 ~ 2012년)의 모니터링을 통해 고랭지 밭에서 발생하는 비점오염물질의 초기세척효과를 분석하고자 하였다. 초기세척효과의 판단은 Geiger(1987)이 제시한 누적오염부하량과 누적유출량과의 그래프를 비교하여 기울기가 45도 기울기보다 상향하여 분포하였을 경우 양분선과 최대로 벌어진 부분의 시간까지에서 초기세척효과가 발생한다고 판단하였다. 연구결과, 고랭지 밭 지역의 경우 뚜렷한 초기세척효과 현상이 나타나지 않았다. 하지만 CODCr의 경우 3차 강우사상에서 초기세척 효과가 나타난 것으로 분석되었다. 3차 강우사상은 선행건기일수가 0.9일로 매우 짧고 발생강우량이 27.3 mm로 연구기간 동안 가장 적은 강우량이 관측되었지만, 유출발생시점 전후 3시간 동안 강우강도가 4.0 ~ 6.2 mm/hr로 높게 나타났기 때문에 유출초기에 고농도의 오염물질이 발생된 것으로 판단된다. 그동안 선행된 초기세척효과에 대한 연구를 살펴본 결과 이병수 등(2008)은 경안천 유역 농업지역에 대해 초기세척효과를 분석한 결과 일부 강우에서는 초기세척현상이 나타나지만 대부분의 강우에서는 초기세척현상이 나타나지 않아 농촌지역의 경우 초기세척현상의 접근방법은 적절치 않다고 보고하고 있다. 정성민 등(2009)은 고랭지 농업지역에서 SS와 TP는 뚜렷한 초기세척현상이 나타나는 반면, TN과 DOC는 경향을 보이지 않는다고 하였다. 하지만 윤영삼 등(2011)은 강우시 포도밭에서 초기세척효과를 분석한 결과 모든 수질항목에서 약한 초기세척효과가 나타났고 특히 SS의 경우 초기세척효과가 강하게 나타났다고 보고하고 있다. 이처럼 투수지역에서의 초기세척효과에 대한 판단은 연구자에 따라 차이를 보이는데 이러한 이유는 투수지역의 토양의 특성, 강우조건, 지형적 특징 등이 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다.

For an effective pre-treatment process of a face input image, it is necessary to detect each of face components, calculate the face area, and estimate the rotary angle of the face. A proposed method of this study can estimate an robust result under such renditions as some different levels of illumination, variable fate sizes, fate rotation angels, and background color similar to skin color of the face. The first step of the proposed method detects the estimated face area that can be calculated by both adapted skin color Information of the band-wide HSV color coordinate converted from RGB coordinate, and skin color Information using histogram. Using the results of the former processes, we can detect a lip area within an estimated face area. After estimating a rotary angle slope of the lip area along the X axis, the method determines the face shape based on face information. After detecting eyes in face area by matching a partial template which is made with both eyes, we can estimate Y axis rotary angle by calculating the eye´s locations in three dimensional space in the reference of the face area. As a result of the experiment on various face images, the effectuality of proposed algorithm was verified.

In this paper, we propose a method for accurately and rapidly detecting defects in wire harnesses by utilizing computer vision to calculate six crucial measurement values: the length of crimped terminals, the dimensions (width) of terminal ends, and the width of crimped sections (wire and core portions). We employ Harris corner detection to locate object positions from two types of data. Additionally, we generate reference points for extracting measurement values by utilizing features specific to each measurement area and exploiting the contrast in shading between the background and objects, thus reflecting the slope of each sample. Subsequently, we introduce a method using the Euclidean distance and correction coefficients to predict values, allowing for the prediction of measurements regardless of changes in the wire's position. We achieve high accuracy for each measurement type, 99.1%, 98.7%, 92.6%, 92.5%, 99.9%, and 99.7%, achieving outstanding overall average accuracy of 97% across all measurements. This inspection method not only addresses the limitations of conventional visual inspections but also yields excellent results with a small amount of data. Moreover, relying solely on image processing, it is expected to be more cost-effective and applicable with less data compared to deep learning methods.

Dynamic stability (DS) in the wheel tracking (WT) test is used as a basic index of rut-resistance for asphalt mixtures. In general, the deeper rut depth is obtained from the weaker mixture, resulting in the lower DS value. On the other hand, the shallower rut depth is obtained from the stronger mixture, resulting in the higher DS. However, it is not always the case when the DS is calculated by the existing method because the DS is simply determined based on the slope at the final stage of the rut depth-cycle curve. Specifically, in the case of the depth-cycle curve showing a steeper slope in the early part but flatter slope in last part, the DS is calculated to be higher than the curve showing a ever-increasing slope throughout the test. As long as the last part of slope is flatter, the deeper final rut depth is evaluated to show a higher DS than the little final rut depth. Therefore, a reasonable method for DS evaluation need to be established. Several new methods were suggested by considering the early, middle and final parts of rut depth to determine a reasonable DS. The results have shown that those new methods have demonstrated a significant improvement in distinguishing similarly performing mixtures. The result also showed that $DS_2$ had better correlation with SD than any other methods , representing the rutting resistance of asphalt mixture very well. The new DS calculation method is relatively simple and easy to follow. More validatin study is required for practical application.

The purpose of this study was to comparatively analyze the stress distribution according to the inclinations of abutments and angulations of the implant fixtures under occlusal loading force. Three study models with straight and $15^{\circ}$ and $25^{\circ}$-angled abutments were prepared following the insertion of Implants parallel to the long axis of the tooth. Additional two experimental models were fabricated with $15^{\circ}$ and $25^{\circ}$ fixture inclinations. Using ANSYS 11, a finite element analysis program, the magnitudes of stress distribution were analyzed. The magnitude of stress under loading was lowest when the load was applied vertically onto the axis of implant. And the magnitude of stress under compound(vertical+oblique) loading was increased as the inclination of implant abutment and fixture was increase. But, the distribution of stress was different as the loading conditions, because of the horizontal offset. As the offset between the axis of loading and the central axis of the implant increased, the stress was increased.

The purpose of this work was to examine the factors affecting the identities of the voiceless plosives, i.e. English [p, t, k] and Korean [p^h, t^h, k^h], from the spontaneous speech corpora. The factors were automatically extracted by a Praat script and the percent correctness of the discriminant analyses was incrementally assessed by increasing the number of factors used in predicting the identities of the plosives. The factors included the spectral moments and tilts of the plosive release bursts, the post-burst aspirations and the vowel onsets, the durations such as the closure durations and the voice onset times (VOTs), the locations within words and utterances and the identities of the following vowels. The results showed that as the number of factors increased up to five, so did the percent correctness of the analyses, resulting in 74.6% for English and 66.4% for Korean. However, the optimal number of factors for the maximum percent correctness was four, i.e. the spectral moments and tilts of the release bursts and the following vowels, the closure durations and the VOTs. This suggests that the identities of the voiceless plosives are mostly determined by their internal and vowel onset cues.
