Daily time series of longshore wind at 8 stations, sea surface temperature (SST) at 11 stations in the eastern coast of the Korean peninsula during $1983\~1997$ and the NOAA/AVHRR satellite data during $1990\~1998$ were used in order to study the temporal and spatial variations of the upwelling cold water which occurred in the summer season. The cold water occurred frequently in the eastern coastal waters of Korea such as Soimal, Kijang, Ulgi, Kampo, Pohang, Youngduk, Chukbyun, Chumunjin and Sokcho, During the upwelling cold water phenomenon, SST came down more than $-5^{\circ}C$ in a day. The maximum of the averaged RMS amplitude of daily SST was $5.8^{\circ}C$ along the eastern coast of Korea on Julian day 212 from $1983\~1997$. The cross correlation coefficients were higher than 0.5 between Sokcho and Chumunjin in the northern part of the East Sea, and along Soimal, Kijang, Ulgi, Kampo and Pohang in the southern part of the East Sea. In late July, 1995 the cold water occurred at Ulgi coastal area and extended to Ullung island which is located 250 km off the Ulgi coast. Even though the distance between Soimal and the Ulgi coast area is more than 120 km, the cross correlation coefficient related to the anomalies of SST due to upwelling cold water was the highest (0.7) in the southeastern coastal area of the Korean peninsula. This connection may be due to the cyclonic circulation of the Tsushima Current in this area and the topography of the ocean rather than the local south wind which induced the coastal upwelling.

H.264/AVC 비디오 압축 표준은 압축 효율을 높이기 위해 다양한 크기의 블록을 사용하여 화면 사이의 움직임 예측을 수행한다. 세밀한 움직임 예측으로 인해 기존의 동영상 표준보다 압축 효율을 높일 수 있었지만, 복잡도도 증가하는 단점이 있다. 따라서, H.264/AVC의 고속 움직임 추정 기법은 필수적이다. H.264/AVC에서 사용하는 움직임 예측 방법은 고정된 탐색 영역 안에서 모든 정수 화소 단위로 최적의 움직임 벡터를 계산한다. 불필요한 정수 화소까지 움직임을 예측하므로 계산양이 증가한다. 본 논문에서는 움직임 벡터의 시간적 상관도와 공간적 상관도를 이용하여 가변적으로 탐색 영역의 크기를 조절하는 방법과 적응적인 초기 시작점 결정 방법을 제안했다. 현재 매크로블록과 참조 화면 사이의 거리를 고려하여 시간적 상관도와 공간적 상관도의 탐색 영역 비중을 가변적으로 조절했다. 또한 참조 화면과 현재 매크로블록 사이의 거리가 멀어질수록 초기 시작점의 정확도를 높이기 위해 초기 시작점을 예측 움직임 벡터와 이전 참조 화면에서 결정된 최적의 움직임 벡터의 평균으로 결정했다. 제안하는 방법은 기존의 전 영역 탐색 방법과 유사한 부호화 성능을 보이면서 움직임 예측 시간이 평균 53.98% 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

Recently various prediction structures have been proposed to exploit inter-view correlation among multi-view video sequences. In this paper, we propose a QP(quantization parameter) selection method for the B frame inserted in the first frames of each GOP(group of pictures), where we change QP for the B frame adaptively to achieve uniform picture quality and overall coding gain. Each B frame is coded with reference to two frames in its adjacent views. We calculate QP for the B frame based on the correlation between the two reference frames, calculated using their rate-distortion costs. By applying the proposed method to the MVC reference prediction structure, we have improved the coding gain by 0.09$\sim$0.16 dB.

Daily time series of longshore sea surface temperature (SST) data at 3 stations, sea surface SST data at 58 stations in the eastern coast of the Korean Peninsular from 2001 to 2005 were used in order to study the temporal and spatial variations of the upwelling coastal cold water occurred in summer season. When the cold water occurred, SST has been decreased more than $-5^{\circ}C$ in a day. The cold water occurred frequently in the eastern coastal areas of Korea such as Ulgi, Kampo, Jukbyun. Daily variations of cold water temperature were quantified using remote control buoy system at Kijang in the southeastern coastal water from July to August in 2004. Hourly variations of SST occurred around $\pm3^{\circ}C$ when cold water disappeared at Kijang. There were close relationship between the strength of East Korean Warm Current, North Korean Cold Water and the scale of spatio-temporal cold water variations in summer season.

Exact estimation of evapotranspiration is important to understand natural phenomena and social issues associated with the climate such as irrigation scheme, reservoir water management, and many other meteorological and climatological problems. To overcome limits of point measurement of evapotranspiration, several models have been developed through the techniques of remote sensing and Geographical Information System. SEBAL model is one of them, based on the energy balance equation, and it has a lot of advantages such as that it requires relatively small empirical relations. In this study, the SEBAL model has been calibrated and validated in Geumgang upper basin, Bochung-stream basin, Korea with 5 satellite images Landsat 5 TM. In validation, the results of SEBAL model were compared with those by Merton method. After validation, the spatial and temporal characteristics of the distribution of evapotranspiration within the basin were analyzed with 3 factors, the aspect of slope, the angle of slope, and the land cover.

This paper proposes an improved design of an interleaved motion vector coding scheme with flexibility in predictive motion vector component by exploiting motion characteristics. It can use component-wise adaptive motion vector predictor based on the utility of spatial and temporal motion field without any signaling bit for indicating decoder of the selected predictive motion vector component. Experiment with test video data shows about 1.99% (max 8.71%) bit rate reduction compared to the conventional H.264/AVC method.

This paper proposes the effective shape descriptor for 3D foot pose estimation. To reduce processing time, silhouette-based foot image database is built and meta information which involves the 3D pose of the foot is appended to the database. And we proposed a modified Centroid Contour Distance whose size of the feature space is small and performance of pose estimation is better than the others. In order to analyze performance of the descriptor, we evaluate time and spatial complexity with retrieval accuracy, and then compare with the previous methods. Experimental results show that the proposed descriptor is more effective than the previous methods on feature extraction time and pose estimation accuracy.

Text information in a digital video provides crucial information to acquire semantic information of the video. In the proposed method. text candidate regions are extracted from input sequence by using characteristics of stroke and text candidate regions are localized by using projection to produce text bounding boxes. Bounding boxes containing text regions are verified geometrically and each bounding box existing same location is tracked by calculating matching measure. which is defined as the mean of absolute difference between bounding boxes in the current frame and previous frames. Finally. text regions are enhanced using temporal redundancy of bounding boxes to produce final results. Experimental results for various videos show the validity of the proposed method.

지구온난화에 따른 우리나라 주변 환경의 변화와 최근 중국 불법어선의 연근해 어업자원의 고갈 등으로 인해 우리나라 연근해 어족자원을 보호할 필요성이 증대되고 있으며, 지속 가능한 어업을 위해서는 어획물의 종류와 양을 정확히 파악하고 불법 어업에 대한 철저한 감시 및 관리가 필요하다. 시공간적으로 다양하게 변하는 생태 및 어장 환경 정보와 선박에 대한 정보를 통해 해양관측과 위성 원격탐사를 동시에 이용함으로써 근해와 원양 생물자원 실태를 관측하는 것이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 야간 불빛 위성 Suomi-NPP (Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership) 및 후속위성인 NOAA-20의 VIIRS (Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite) DNB (Day & Night Band) 영상을 이용하여 야간 불빛을 활용하고자 한다. 이 불빛 위성 자료를 이용하여 야간에 조업하는 어선 선단의 공간 분포를 분석할 수 있다. 또한 이 불빛 위성 자료와 AIS 자료를 상호 비교하여, 불빛 위성 자료를 통해 실제 선박의 위치 정보를 검색하는 것이 가능함을 검증하고자 한다.

Ocean salinity affects ocean circulation on a global scale and low salinity water around coastal areas often has an impact on aquaculture and fisheries. Microwave satellite sensors (e.g., Soil Moisture Active Passive [SMAP]) have provided sea surface salinity (SSS) based on the dielectric characteristics of water associated with SSS and sea surface temperature (SST). In this study, a Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LGBM)-based model for generating high resolution SSS from Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) data was proposed, having machine learning-based improved SMAP SSS by Jang et al. (2022) as reference data (SMAP SSS (Jang)). Three schemes with different input variables were tested, and scheme 3 with all variables including Multi-scale Ultra-high Resolution SST yielded the best performance (coefficient of determination = 0.60, root mean square error = 0.91 psu). The proposed LGBM-based GOCI SSS had a similar spatiotemporal pattern with SMAP SSS (Jang), with much higher spatial resolution even in coastal areas, where SMAP SSS (Jang) was not available. In addition, when tested for the great flood occurred in Southern China in August 2020, GOCI SSS well simulated the spatial and temporal change of Changjiang Diluted Water. This research provided a potential that optical satellite data can be used to generate high resolution SSS associated with the improved microwave-based SSS especially in coastal areas.
