In this paper, we propose boundary-preserving stereo matching method based on adaptive disparity adjustment using confidence region detection. To find the initial disparity map, we compute data cost using the color space (CIE Lab) combined with the gradient space and apply double cost aggregation. We perform left/right consistency checking to sort out the mismatched region. This consistency check typically fails for occluded and mismatched pixels. We mark a pixel in the left disparity map as "inconsistent", if the disparity value of its counterpart pixel differs by a value larger than one pixel. In order to distinguish errors caused by the disparity discontinuity, we first detect the confidence map using the Mean-shift segmentation in the initial disparity map. Using this confidence map, we then adjust the disparity map to reduce the errors in initial disparity map. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method produces higher quality disparity maps by successfully preserving disparity discontinuities compared to existing methods.

In this paper, we proposed the design on LNA for $3{\sim}5\;GHz$ frequency with Using $0.18{\mu}m$CMOS technology. The LNA gain is 12-15 dB, and noise figure is lower than 5 dB and Input/output matching is lower than 10 dB in frequency range from 3 GHz to 5 GHz. The topology, which common source output of cascode is reduced noise figure and improved gain. Input common gate amplifier extend LNA's bandwidth.

본 논문은 시맨틱 웹 기술이 어떻게 국가 표준(KS) 정보 검색 서비스 내 정보들을 연계시키고 사용자 접근성을 향상시키는 데 도움을 줄 수 있는지를 실증적으로 보여준다. 기존 표준 정보 검색 서비스는 용어 검색의 유연성이 부족하여 표준 정보에서 사용된 용어와 사용자 용어 간의 괴리를 해소하지 못했으며 표준, 기관, 인력 등 상호 관련성을 가진 개체 정보들을 개별적으로 서비스하였다. 이러한 상황은 사용자의 표준 정보 검색 서비스 접근성을 떨어뜨리는 요인으로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 유의어, 관련어를 중심으로 한 표준 용어 사전 구축을 통해 사용자 용어와 표준 정보 내 용어 간의 원활한 매칭을 지원하며, 표준 관련 개체들을 온톨로지와 추론을 통해 연계시키는 방안을 제시한다. 개선된 표준 정보 검색 서비스는 개선된 표준 정보 검색 서비스는 개체 중심적 통합 검색 결과 제공 방식으로 관련 정보들을 단일 웹 페이지 내에서 확인할 수 있도록 해준다. 예를 들어, 특정 KS 표준 검색 결과 페이지에서는 기존에 DB 접근이나 검색 엔진을 통해 바로 획득할 수 없었던 정부 표준들, 기관들의 해당 KS 표준 인용 현황, 해당 KS 표준 전문가들, 부합화를 위해 참조된 국제 표준들, 해당 KS 표준 전문가들, 부합화를 위해 참조된 국제 표준들, 해당 KS 표준 전문가 네트워크, 해당 KS 표준 내 표준 용어 사전 정보 등 다양한 관련 정보들을 조합하여 서비스한다. 본 연구를 위해 모델링된 온톨로지와 시맨틱 웹기반 서비스 프레임워크인 OntoFrame 상에서 추론 작업이 표준 정보 적재 시에 전방 추론 (Forward-chaining) 방식으로 수행되었으며, 표준 온톨로지 질의 언어인 SPARQL (SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language)을 이용해 일반 검색 서비스 수준의 속도로 서비스될 수 있었다.

As the importance of biotechnology has been increased as a growth engine for country, most countries get focused on securing technological competitiveness in the field of biotechnology. Under the fierce global competition, it is very important to identify technological competitiveness of Korea and our neighboring countries in order to carry out effective research and development. Expert opinion survey such as Delphi is mainly conducted to analyze the technological competitiveness, but the method based on experts' intuition may produce different results depending on survey respondents due to the strong subjective inclination. In this study, the patent registered in US was utilized to analyze the technological competitiveness based on objective data. Targeting countries were Korea, China and Japan which were leading nations in the Northeast Asia. As analytical indexes, NP(Number of Patents), CPP(Cites per Patent), PII(Patent Impact Index), TS(Technology Strength), TI(Technology Independence), PFS(Patent Family Size) were used for analysis. Moreover, the industrial linkage with biotechnology was analyzed by matching IPC code of patents with 44 industries. Based on this analysis, technological convergence and utilization were quantified. The findings can be utilized as basic data when policy is established to improve technological competitiveness in the field of biotechnology.

Recently, with the conversion towards knowledge-based economy era, the importance of the evaluation for patent valuation has been growing rapidly because technology transactions are increasing with the purpose of practically utilizing R&D outcomes such as technology commercialization and technology transfer. Nevertheless, there is a lack of research on determinants of patent valuation by analyzing technology transactions due to the difficulty of collecting data in practice. Hence, to suggest quantitative determinants for the patent valuation which could be applied to scoring methods, 15 patent valuation models domestically and overseas are analysed in order to assure the objectiveness for subjective results from qualitative methods such as expert surveys, comparison assessment, etc. Through this analysis, the important 6 common determinants are drawn and patent information is matched which can be used as proxy variables of individual determinant factors by advanced researches. In addition, to validate whether the model proposed has a statistically meaningful effect, total 517 technology transactions are collected from both public and private technology transaction offices and analysed by multiple regression analysis, which led to significant patent determinant factors in deciding its value. As a result, it is herein presented that patent connectivity(number of literature cited) and commercialization stage in market influence significantly on patent valuation. The meaning of this study is in that it suggests the significant quantitative determinants of patent valuation based on the technology transactions data in practice, and if research results by industry are systematically verified through seamless collection of transaction data and their monitoring, we would propose the customized patent valuation model by industry which is applicable for both strategic planning of patent registration and achievement assessment of research projects (with representative patents).
