유역 내 수자원 계획을 효율적으로 수립하기 위해서는 장기간에 걸친 수문 모델링 뿐만 아니라 미래 기후 시나리오에 따른 수문학적 기후변화 영향 분석도 중요하다. 이를 위해서는 관측 값에 기반한 고품질 및 고해상도 격자형 기상자료 생산이 필수적이다. 하지만, 우리나라는 종관기상관측시스템(ASOS)과 방재기상관측시스템(AWS)으로 이루어진 고밀도 관측 네트워크가 2000년 이후부터 이용 가능했기에 장기간 격자형 기상자료가 부족하다. 이를 보완하고자 본 연구는 가정적인 상황에 기반하여 만약 2000년 이전에도 현재와 동일한 고밀도 관측 네트워크가 존재했다면 산출 가능했을 장기간 일 단위 고해상도 격자형 기상자료를 생산하는 것을 목표로 한다. 구체적으로, 2000년을 기준으로 최근과 과거 기간의 격자형 기상자료를 딥러닝 알고리즘으로 모델링하여 과거 기간을 대상으로 기상자료(일 단위 기온, 강수량)의 공간적 변동성 및 특성을 재구성한다. 격자형 기상자료의 생산을 위해 우리나라의 고도에 기반하여 기상 인자들의 영향을 정량화 하는 보간법인 K-PRISM을 적용하여 고밀도 및 저밀도 관측 네트워크로 두 가지 격자형 기상자료를 생산한다. 생산한 격자형 기상자료 중 저밀도 관측 네트워크의 자료를 입력 자료로, 고밀도 관측 네트워크의 자료를 출력 자료로 선정하여 각 격자점에 대해 Long-Short Term Memory(LSTM) 알고리즘을 개발한다. 이 때, 멀티 그래픽 처리장치(GPU)에 기반한 병렬 처리를 통해 비용 효율적인 계산이 가능하도록 한다. 최종적으로 1973년부터 1999년까지의 저밀도 관측 네트워크의 격자형 기상자료를 입력 자료로 하여 해당 기간에 대한 고밀도 관측 네트워크의 격자형 기상자료를 생산한다. 개발된 대부분의 예측 모델 결과가 0.9 이상의 NSE 값을 나타낸다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 개발된 모델은 고품질의 장기간 기상자료를 효율적으로 정확도 높게 산출하며, 이는 향후 장기간 기후 추세 및 변동 분석에 중요 자료로 활용 가능하다.

In wireless sensor networks, a moving object tracking scheme is one of core technologies for real applications such as environment monitering and enemy moving tracking in military areas. However, no works have been carried out on processing the failure of object tracking in sparse sensor networks with holes. Therefore, the energy consumption in the existing schemes significantly increases due to plenty of failures of moving object tracking. To overcome this problem, we propose a novel moving object tracking scheme based on polynomial regression prediction in sparse sensor networks. The proposed scheme activates the minimum sensor nodes by predicting the trajectory of an object based on polynomial regression analysis. Moreover, in the case of the failure of moving object tracking, it just activates only the boundary nodes of a hole for failure recovery. By doing so, the proposed scheme reduces the energy consumption and ensures the high accuracy for object tracking in the sensor network with holes. To show the superiority of our proposed scheme, we compare it with the existing scheme. Our experimental results show that our proposed scheme reduces about 47% energy consumption for object tracking over the existing scheme and achieves about 91% accuracy of object tracking even in sensor networks with holes.

Each sensor node can know its location in several ways, if the node process the information based on its geographical position in sensor networks. In the localization scheme using GPS, there could be nodes that don't know their locations because the scheme requires line of sight to radio wave. Moreover, this scheme is high costly and consumes a lot of power. The localization scheme without GPS uses a sophisticated mathematical algorithm estimating location of sensor nodes that may be inaccurate. AHLoS(Ad Hoc Localization System) is a hybrid scheme using both GPS and location estimation algorithm. In AHLoS, the GPS node, which can receive its location from GPS, broadcasts its location to adjacent normal nodes which are not GPS devices. Normal nodes can estimate their location by using iterative triangulation algorithms if they receive at least three beacons which contain the position informations of neighbor nodes. But, there are some cases that a normal node receives less than two beacons by geographical conditions, network density, movements of nodes in sensor networks. We propose an indirect localization scheme for low-density sensor nodes which are difficult to receive directly at least three beacons from GPS nodes in wireless network.

Users tend to check in and post their statuses in location-based social networks (LBSNs) to describe that their interests are related to a point-of-interest (POI). While previous studies on discovering area-of-interests (AOIs) were conducted mostly on the basis of density-based clustering methods with the collection of geo-tagged photos from LBSNs, we focus on estimating a POI boundary, which corresponds to only one cluster containing its POI center. Using geo-tagged tweets recorded from Twitter users, this paper introduces a density-based low-complexity two-phase method to estimate a POI boundary by finding a suitable radius reachable from the POI center. We estimate a boundary of the POI as the convex hull of selected geo-tags through our two-phase density-based estimation, where each phase proceeds with different sizes of radius increment. It is shown that our method outperforms the conventional density-based clustering method in terms of computational complexity.

In the present study, a high-strength polyethylene terephthalate (PET) sheet was fabricated through a densification process of low melting PET fiber (LMF) combined PET sheet. During the thermal heat treatment process of the combined LMF, individual PET fiber was connected, which in turn leads to the improvement of the interfacial bonding force between the fibers. Also, the densification of the PET sheet leads to reduce macrospore density and in return could enhance the binding force between the overlapped PET networks. Consequently, the asprepared LMF-PET sheet showed about 410% improved tensile strength and the same elongation compared to before compression. Besides, the enhanced bonding force can prevent the shrinkage of the PET fiber network and exhibited excellent dimensional stability.

This paper descWireless Sensor Network consisting of a number of small sensors with transceiver and data processor is an effective means for gathering data in a variety of environments. The data collected by each sensor is transmitted to a processing center that use all reported data to estimate characteristics of the environment or detect an event. This process must be designed to conserve the limited energy resources of the sensor since neighboring sensors generally have the data of similar information. Therefore, clustering scheme which sends aggregated information to the processing center may save energy. Existing multi-hop cluster energy consumption modeling scheme can not estimate exact energy consumption of an individual sensor. In this paper, we propose a new cluster energy consumption model which modified existing problem. We can estimate more accurate total energy consumption according to the number of clusterheads by using Voronoi tessellation. Thus, we can realize an energy efficient cluster formation. Our modeling has an accuracy over $90\%$ when compared with simulation and has considerably superior than existing modeling scheme about $60\%.$ We also confirmed that energy consumption of the proposed modeling scheme is more accurate when the sensor density is increased.

Localization is the most important feature in the sensor network environment because it is a basic element enabling people and things to aware the circumference environment. Existing localization methods can be categorized as either range-based or range-free. While range-based is known to be not suitable because of the irregularity of radio propagation and the additional device requirement. range-free is much appropriated for the resource constrained sensor network because it can actively locate by means of the communication radio. But its location accuracy is just depended on the density of circumference nodes; it is very low in low-density sensor network environment. This paper proposes a mobile object tracking method, named DRTS(Distributed Range-hybrid Tracking Scheme), with combining range-based and range-free. It is optimally making use of the location, communication range, and received signal strength from circumference nodes. Especially, it can greatly improve the mobile tracking accuracy by adapting a new prediction method, named EGP(Estimative Gird Points) into the proposed location estimation method. The simulation results show that our method outperforms the other localization and tracking methods in the tracking accuracy point of view.

This paper addresses the efficient facility placements to adopt a super WiFi network, taking significant considerations as the next generation 'information highway'. Since the super WiFi has a wider geographic coverage by utilizing the white spaces of TV broadcasting which are empty and available frequencies for the wireless communications, it would play an important role in releasing digital divide of the internet access for low populated or mountainous areas. The purpose of this paper is to explore systematic and efficient spatial plans for the super WiFi. For doing this, we applied optimal location covering models to Gurye-gun, Jeonlanamdo. From the application, we presented optimal locations for super WiFi facilities and significant analytical results, such as the tradeoff between the number of facilities and coverage and marginal coverage for establishing super WiFi network. The results of this research would be usefully utilized for decision makers who wish to adopt a super WiFi, to extend wireless networks in a city or build a regional infrastructure of wireless facilities.

Along with economic growth and industrial development, there is an increasing demand for various electronic components and device production of semiconductor, SMT component, and electrical battery products. However, these products may contain foreign substances coming from manufacturing process such as iron, aluminum, plastic and so on, which could lead to serious problems or malfunctioning of the product, and fire on the electric vehicle. To solve these problems, it is necessary to determine whether there are foreign materials inside the product, and may tests have been done by means of non-destructive testing methodology such as ultrasound ot X-ray. Nevertheless, there are technical challenges and limitation in acquiring X-ray images and determining the presence of foreign materials. In particular Small-sized or low-density foreign materials may not be visible even when X-ray equipment is used, and noise can also make it difficult to detect foreign objects. Moreover, in order to meet the manufacturing speed requirement, the x-ray acquisition time should be reduced, which can result in the very low signal- to-noise ratio(SNR) lowering the foreign material detection accuracy. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a five-step approach to overcome the limitations of low resolution, which make it challenging to detect foreign substances. Firstly, global contrast of X-ray images are increased through histogram stretching methodology. Second, to strengthen the high frequency signal and local contrast, we applied local contrast enhancement technique. Third, to improve the edge clearness, Unsharp masking is applied to enhance edges, making objects more visible. Forth, the super-resolution method of the Residual Dense Block (RDB) is used for noise reduction and image enhancement. Last, the Yolov5 algorithm is employed to train and detect foreign objects after learning. Using the proposed method in this study, experimental results show an improvement of more than 10% in performance metrics such as precision compared to low-density images.
