Is golden proportion, which has been classical beauty among aesthetic rules and orders, avaiable in the present \ulcorner or Does ${\surd}$rectangle proportion replace the classical proportion \ulcorner It is a main theme in this thesis to answer the above questions. This study is basically about favorite proportion in the field of fine art, architecture and design. For this study, 2oo students participate in the answering to the questionnaire. The conclusions which result from the above surveys are as follows ; The results of the first survey is the preference of ${\surd}$2 rectangle to other ${\surd}$rectangles. The second result is the preference of golden proportion as 1 : 1.618 to ${\surd}$2 rectangle as 1 : 1.414. This survey proves that ${\surd}$rectangle proportion as modern proportion does not substitute the golden proportion with the classic proportion.

The aim of this paper is to extract features from each news scenes for example, symbol icon which can be distinct each broadcasting corp, icon and caption which are has feature and important information for the scene in respectively, In this paper, we propose extraction methods of caption that has important prohlem of news videos and it can be classified in three steps, First of al!, we converted that input images from video frame to YIQ color vector in first stage. And then, we divide input image into regions in clear hy using equalized color histogram of input image, In last, we extracts caption using edge histogram based on vertical and horizontal line, We also propose the method which can extract news icon in selected key frames by the difference of inter-histogram and can divide each scene by the extracted icon. In this paper, we used comparison method of edge histogram instead of complex methcxls based on color histogram or wavelet or moving objects, so we shorten computation through using simpler algorithm. and we shown good result of feature's extraction.

This paper proposes a method to detect vanishing points of an indoor scene using line segment classification. Two-stage vanishing points detection is carried out to detect vanishing point in indoor scene efficiently. In the first stage, the method examines whether the image composition is a one-point perspective projection or a two-point one. If it is a two-point perspective projection, a horizontal line through the detected vanishing point is found for line segment classification. In the second stage, the method detects two vanishing points exactly using line segment classification. The method is evaluated by synthetic images and an image DB. In the synthetic image which some noise is added in, vanishing point detection error is under 16 pixels until the percent of the noise to the image becomes 60%. Vanishing points detection ratio by A.Quattoni and A.Torralba's image DB is over 87%.

In this paper, a new intermediate view reconstruction method employing a stereo image rectification algorithm by which an uncalibrated input stereo image can be transformed into the calibrated one is suggested and its performance is analyzed. In the proposed method, feature point are extracted from the stereo image pair though detection of the corners and similarities between each pixel of the stereo image. And then, using these detected feature points, the moving vectors between stereo image and the epipolar line is extracted. Finally, the input stereo image is rectified by matching the extracted epipolar line between the stereo image in the horizontal direction and intermediate views are reconstructed by using these rectified stereo images. From some experiments on synthesis of the intermediate views by using three kinds of stereo image; a CCETT's stereo image of 'Man' and two stereo images of 'Face' ＆ 'Car' captured by real camera, it is analyzed that PSNRs of the intermediate views reconstructed from the calibrated image by using the proposed rectification algorithm are improved by 2.5㏈ for 'Man', 4.26㏈ for 'Pace' and 3.85㏈ for 'Car' than !hose of the uncalibrated ones. This good experimental result suggests a possibility of practical application of the unposed stereo image rectification algorithm-based intermediate view reconstruction view to the uncalibrated stereo images.

This study was intended to inquire into Check Pattern. The purpose of this study attempted to make a systematic investigation of the characteristic of the Check Pattern, the checker using vertical and horizontal lines which was the universal plastic element and inquire into it in terms of era, designers and combined work. By doing so, this study attempted to Investigate the phase of the Check Pattern in world fashion and further forecast the future of checker design applicable to the 21th century fashion. The result can be summarized as follows : 1. Mondrim's neo-plasticism has not only had a great influence on Op Art and Minimalism work but is deeply related to fashion and textile design. Mondrian used vertical and horizontal line ad the dualistic element. 2. The checker is estimated to have been used since the Etruian times, though uncertain. and largely divided into the Madras check and Scotland Check. Though the origin of the tartan representation of the Scotland check can not be accurately found out, it began to emerge in around the 13th century. 3. Check Pattern has began to be widely used with the development of the textile industry since 1826 and been used in every typical Sihoutto appearing in each era up to the present. And Check Pattern is used most designer in the world, who represent their own personality in their works. This study could find out that the checker is the element of Infinite applicability in the future. It is expected that the sophisticated and beautiful design using the chocker will be presented by many korean designer though the overall and systematic study of the checker.

In this paper we analyzed the localization error of near-field detection algorithm in the sea. The near-field detection algorithms using triangulation and wavefront curvature basically assume a signal in two dimension of bearing and range. But the assumption causes localization error because there is three dimension of bearing, range, and depth in the sea. Even through three dimensional effect is considered, the localization error is occurred if multipath propagation in the sea is ignored. To analyze the localization error in the sea, we simulate the near-field localization using acoustic propagation model and focused beamforming considering wavefront curvature. The simulation results indicate that localization error always occurs in the sea and the error varied with sound velocity profile, water depth, bottom slope, source range, etc.

We should extract lines and data which consist of the table in order to classify the table region and analyze its structure in document image. But it is difficult to extract lines and data exactly because the lines are cut and their lengths are changed, or characters or noises are merged to the table lines. These problems result from the error of image input device or image reduction. In this paper, we propose the better method of extracting lines and data for table region classification and structure analysis than the previous ones including commercial softwares. The prposed method extracts horizontal and vertical lines which consist of the table by the use of one dimensional median filter. This filter not only eliminates the noises which attach to the line and the lines which are orthogonal to the filtering direction, but also connects the cut line of which the gap is shorter than the length of the filter tap in the process of extracting lines to the filtering direction. Furthermore, texts attached to the line are separated in the process of extracting vertical lines. This is an example of ABSTRACT format.

The purpose of the article is to compare the impacts of energy efficiency and economic growth for energy demand through production frontier approach in OECD countries. We compared the traditional energy intensity with energy efficiencies of production frontier approach, slack efficiency on the frontier, and estimated elasticity of energy demand for GDP growth. First, the energy intensity has a low relationship with energy efficiency by radial approach, but has constant correlations with slack energy efficiency, slack-adjusted efficiency by non-radial approach, and energy efficiency by horizon approach. If we measure energy efficiency only with energy elasticity, it may make a mistake. Especially the energy efficiency by radial approach has a tendency to overestimate most OECD countries. Second, as many countries have excess energy consumption of 17.3% even on the points of the frontier, reduction of energy consumption is necessary in addition. Third, the average energy elasticity of OECD countries is 1.1 close to elasticity 1. There exists the difference of elasticity among countries and the energy demands are also high in countries with high elasticity.

Background: Patients with pyogenic lung abscess who do not respond to medical therapy are usually candidates for thoracotomy with pulmonary resection. Percutaneous tube drainage, used routinely and with good results before the antibiotic era, has nearly been forgotten. Methods: We treated 8 patients who had poor cadidates for a lobectomy and didn't respond to medical management. A pig-tail catheter (6 to 10 Fr.) was inserted into the abscess under the fluoroscopic guidance. Results: All patients brought about dramatic clinical responses with prompt closure of cavity and radiographic improvement. Conclusion: Percutaneous pig-tail catheter drainage provides excellent clnical results with ease and safety, and avoids unnecessary loss of functioning lung parenchyma. But lobectomy should be considered in patients who major life-threatening bleeding or massive pulmonary necrosis.

본 논문에서는 출입국자 관리의 효율성과 제계적인 출입국 관리를 위하여 여권 코드를 자동으로 인식하고 위조 여권을 판별할 수 있는 여권 인식 및 얼굴 인증 방법을 제안한다. 여권 이미지가 기울어진 상태로 스캔되어 획득되어질 경우 개별 코드 인식과 얼굴 인증에 많은 영향을 미칠 수도 있으므로 기울기 보정은 문자 분할 및 인식, 얼굴 인증에 있어 매우 중요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 여권 영상을 스미어링한 후, 추출된 문자열 중에서 가장 긴 문자열을 선택하고 이 문자열의 좌측과 우측 부분의 두께 중심을 연결하는 직선과 수평선과의 기울기를 이용하여 여권 영상에 대한 각도 보정을 수행한다. 여권 모드 추출은 소벨 연산자와 수평 스미어링, 8 방향 윤곽선 추적 알고리즘을 적용하여 여권 코드의 문자열 영역을 추출하고, 추출된 여권 코드 문자열 영역에 대해 반복 이지화 방법을 적용하여 코드의 문자열 영역을 이진화한다. 이진화된 문자열 영역에 대해 CDM 마스크를 적용하여 문자열의 코드들을 복원하고 8 방향 윤곽선 추적 알고리즘을 적용하여 개별 코드를 추출한다. 추출된 개별 코드 인식은 개선된 RBF 네트워크를 제안하여 적용한다. 제안된 RBF 네트워크는 퍼지 논리 접속 연산자를 이용하여 경계변수를 통적으로 조정하는 개선된 퍼지 ART 알고리즘을 제안하여 RBF 네트워크의 중간층으로 적용한다. 얼굴 인증을 위해서는 얼굴 인증에 가장 보편적으로 사용되는 PCA 알고리즘을 적용한다. PCA 알고리즘은 고차원의 벡터를 저 차원의 벡터로 감량하여 전체 입력 영상들의 직교적인 공분산행렬을 계산한 후 그것의 고유 값에 따라 각 영상의 고유벡터를 구하므로 PCA 알고리즘을 적용하여 얼굴의 고유 벡터를 구한 후 특징 벡터를 추출한다. 따라서 여권 영상에서 획득되어진 얼굴 영상의 특징벡터와 데이터베이스에 있는 얼굴 영상의 특징벡터와의 거리 값을 계산하여 사진 위조 여부를 판별한다. 제안된 여권 인식 및 얼굴 인증 방법의 성능을 평가를 위하여 원본 여권에서 얼굴 부분을 위조한 여권과 기울어진 여권 영상을 대상으로 실험한 결과, 제안된 방법이 여권의 코드 인식 및 얼굴 인증에 있어서 우수한 성능이 있음을 확인하였다.
