In this paper, we present a novel method for local image descriptor called exact order based descriptor (EOD) which is robust to illumination changes and Gaussian noise. Exact orders of image patch is induced by changing discrete intensity value into k-dimensional continuous vector to resolve the ambiguity of ordering for same intensity pixel value. EOD is generated from overall distribution of exact orders in the patch. The proposed local descriptor is compared with several state-of-the-art descriptors over a number of images. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms many state-of-the-art descriptors in the presence of illumination changes, blur and viewpoint change. Also, the proposed method can be used for many computer vision applications such as face recognition, texture recognition and image analysis.

In this paper, we introduce a modified interference cancellation scheme to overcome MAI in DS-CDMA. Among ICs(Interference Cancellers), PIC(Parallel IC) requires the more complexity, and SIC(Successive IC) faces the problems of the long delay time. Most of all, the adaptive detector achieves the good BER performance using the adaptive Inter conducted iteration algorithm. So it requires many iterations. To resolve the problems of them, we propose an improved adaptive detector that the received signal removed MAI through the sorting scheme and the cancellation method are fed into the adaptive filter. Because the improved input signal is fed into the adaptive filter, it has the same BER performance only using smaller iterations than the conventional adaptive detector, and the proposed detector having adaptive filter requires less complexity than the other detectors.

In this study, the accuracy of three dimensional location was improved by self calibration bundle method with additional parameter, which is to correct systematic error through detection and elimination of the gross error from updated reference variance for observation values in photogram-metry. In this study, with the result of comparing accuracy of each method, correcting systematic error is more effective after gross error detection and when observation values are contained more than two gross error the point with maximum correlation value is detected by masking effect of least square adjustment.

We improve the performance of cardiac disorder classification by adding new temporal features extracted from continuous heart sound signals. We add three kinds of novel temporal features to a conventional feature based on mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC): Heart sound envelope, murmur probabilities, and murmur amplitude variation. In cardiac disorder classification and detection experiments, we evaluate the contribution of the proposed features to classification accuracy and select proper temporal features using the sequential feature selection method. The selected features are shown to improve classification accuracy significantly and consistently for neural network-based pattern classifiers such as multi-layer perceptron (MLP), support vector machine (SVM), and extreme learning machine (ELM).

This paper introduces a multi-cell search method for heterogeneous networks (HetNet), in which user equipments need to search multiple cells in its vicinity simultaneously. Due to the difficulty of acquiring channel informations for multiple cells, a non-coherent approach is preferred. In this paper, a non-coherent single-cell search scheme using a weighted vector is proposed, and the successive interference cancellation based multi-cell search algorithm is devised. In order to improve cell search performance, the weighted vector is designed in a way to exploit the general characteristic of wireless channel. Based on the fact that the performance of the proposed single-cell search scheme deviates slowly from the one using the optimal weighted vector, a universal weighted vector is also proposed, which shows the performance close to the optimal ones for various channel environments and signal-to-noise ratio regimes. Simulation results confirm that the proposed multi-cell search algorithm is capable of identifying cells more accurately with the help of the proposed single-cell search scheme, and can detect the remaining cells more effectively by removing the signals of the identified cells from the received signal.

The importance of protection for data and information is increasing by the rapid development of information communication and network. And concern of the private-information protection is increasing for the requested user's demand. Analysis of unknown signal characteristics is importance for the safe system maintenance from hacker and cracker. Detected target of unknown signals is virus, inner invader and outer invader, etc. Because existed unknown signal detection method exist individually for the virus, inner invader and outer invader system performance is very lower and system cost is very much. Therefore, in this paper proposed merging IDS system performs detection for virus, inner intrusion and outer intrusion method. Design of the proposed system is used Synopsys Ver. 1999.10 and VHDL coding. The proposed IDS system is practical in the system performance and cost for the individually existed IDS, and proposed IDS system utilized a part of system resources.

In this paper, we propose the Real-time Dead-Pixel Detection and Compensation System for mobile camera and its hardware architecture. The CMOS image sensors as image input devices are becoming popular due to the demand for miniaturized, low-power and cost-effective imaging systems. However a conventional Dead-Pixel Detection Algorithm is disable to detect neighboring dead pixels and it degrades image quality by wrong detection and compensation. To detect dead pixels the proposed system is classifying dead pixels into Hot pixel and Cold pixel. Also, the proposed algorithm is processing line-detector and $5{\times}5$ window-detector consecutively. The line-detector and window-detector can search dead pixels by using one-dimensional(only horizontal) method in low frequency area and two-dimensional(vertical and diagonal) method in high frequency area, respectively. The experimental result shows that it can detect 99% of dead pixels. It was designed in Verilog hardware description language and total gate count is 23K using TSMC 0.25um ASIC library.

HID(High Intensity Discharge) search lamp for shipment requires a high open circuit and output current compare than vehicle. This paper presents a soft-start open circuit voltage and constant current sequence control method for 2.5[kW] HID search lamp. The proposed method controls the opal circuit voltage and discharge current of HID lamp according to ignition signal with a simple 8-bit micro-processor and PWM device. For the stable control of lamp, micro-processor checks the output voltage and current. And the checked signals are compared with ignition signal and changes the control mode for stable operation. An ignition signal and micro-processor change the control mode from open circuit voltage contort to constant current control. The proposed control scheme is verified from experimental tests of 2.5[kW] HID search lamp for shipment.

We propose a continuously varying contact pressure(CVCP)-adaptive feature extraction algorithm for pulse diagnostic analysis. The CVCP method measures the pulse waveform with continuously increasing contact pressure(CP). This method offer a high resolution signal of the pulse waveform amplitude(PWA) as a function of the contact pressure. Therefore it enables us to overcome the limitation of commercially available pulse-taking devices whose analysis rely on a few number of PWA-CP pairs. We show that an efficient feature extraction algorithm which covers the features of the CVCP-method can be developed by sequentially applying Fast Fourier Transform, peak detection by center-to-edges method, baseline drift removal, detection of the percussion wave upstroke by intersecting tangent method and detection of the analysis region. Finally, by a clinical study with 30 subjects, we show that our CVCP-adaptive feature extraction algorithm detected the upstroke with accuracy of 99.46% and sensitivity of 99.51%, which were about 4.82% and 2.46% increases respectively, compared to a conventional feature extraction method. The proposed CVCP method and the CVCP-adaptive feature extraction algorithm are expected to improve the accuracy in the pulse diagnostic algorithms such as floating/sunken pulse qualities and deficient/excess pulse qualities.
