Ghost cancelers need to accurately estimate the distortions suffered by transmitted signals on their way to receivers by capturing ghost canceling reference signals in the vertical blanking interval. As ghosts become much severer, sync separation tends to malfunction, making it impossible to acquire measurement data for channel estimation. This paper presents a robust method of acquiring ghost data using their correlation properties, and evaluates its performance through computer simulation. The reference signals are inserted in such a manner that the polarity alternates from one frame to another to remove color bursts and sync signals, and to increase the signal-to-noise ratio as well. As a result, however, they are prone to timing jitters. So a simple yet effective method is proposed that can correct for even fractional time delays. The timing errors are found to be less than about 4% of the sample spacing.

The KARI(Korea Aerospace Research Institute) operates the government satellite information application consultation to cope with ever-increasing demand for satellite images in the public sector, and carries out various support projects including the generation and provision of mosaic images on the Korean Peninsula every year to enhance user convenience and promote the use of satellite images. In particular, the government has wanted to increase the utilization of mosaic images on the Korean Peninsula and seek to classify and update mosaic images so that users can use them in their businesses easily. However, it is necessary to test and verify whether the classification results of the mosaic images can be utilized in the field since the original spectral information is distorted during pan-sharpening and color balancing, and there is a limitation that only R, G, and B bands are provided. Therefore, in this study, the reliability of the classification result of the mosaic image was compared to the result of KOMPSAT-3 image. The study found that the accuracy of the classification result of KOMPSAT-3 image was between 81~86% (overall accuracy is about 85%), while the accuracy of the classification result of mosaic image was between 69~72% (overall accuracy is about 72%). This phenomenon is interpreted not only because of the distortion of the original spectral information through pan-sharpening and mosaic processes, but also because NDVI and NDWI information were extracted from KOMPSAT-3 image rather than from the mosaic image, as only three color bands(R, G, B) were provided. Although it is deemed inadequate to distribute classification results extracted from mosaic images at present, it is believed that it will be necessary to explore ways to minimize the distortion of spectral information when making mosaic images and to develop classification techniques suitable for mosaic images as well as the provision of NIR band information. In addition, it is expected that the utilization of images with limited spectral information could be increased in the future if related research continues, such as the comparative analysis of classification results by geomorphological characteristics and the development of machine learning methods for image classification by objects of interest.

This study is a study on effective stitching technique for video recorded by using a dual-lens $360^{\circ}$ camera composed of two fisheye lenses. First of all, this study located a problem in the result of stitching by using a bundled program. And the study was carried out, focusing on looking for a stitching technique more efficient and closer to perfect by comparatively analyzing the results of stitching by using Autopano Video Pro and Autopano Giga, professional stitching program. As a result, it was shown that the problems of bundled program were horizontal and vertical distortion, exposure and color mismatch and unsmooth stitching line. And it was possible to solve the problem of the horizontal and vertical by using Automatic Horizon and Verticals Tool of Autopano Video Pro and Autopano Giga, problem of exposure and color by using Levels, Color and Edit Color Anchors and problem of stitching line by using Mask function. Based on this study, it is to be hoped that $360^{\circ}$ VR video content closer to perfect can be produced by efficient stitching technique for video recorded by using dual-lens $360^{\circ}$ camera in the future.

Recently, as the prevalence of high-performance mobile devices and the application of the multimedia content are expanded, Super Resolution (SR) technique which reconstructs low resolution images to high resolution images is becoming important. And in the mobile devices, the development of the SR algorithm considering the operation quantity or memory is required because of using the restricted resources. In this paper, we propose a new single frame fast SR technique suitable for mobile devices. In order to prevent color distortion, we change RGB color domain to HSV color domain and process the brightness information V (Value) considering the characteristics of human visual perception. First, the low resolution image is enlarged by the improved fast back projection considering the noise elimination. And at the same time, the reliable edge map is extracted by using the LoG (Laplacian of Gaussian) filtering. Finally, the high definition picture is reconstructed by using the edge information and the improved back projection result. The proposed technique removes effectually the unnatural artefact which is generated during the super resolution restoration, and the edge information which can be lost is amended and emphasized. The experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm provides better performance than conventional back projection and interpolation methods.

In recent years, as the demand of high-resolution satellite images increases due to the miniaturization and constellation of satellites, various efforts to support users to utilize satellite images more conveniently are performed. Accordingly, the Korea Aerospace Research Institute produces and provides mosaic images on the Korean Peninsula every year to improve the convenience of users in the public sector and activate the use of satellite images. In order to increase the utilization of mosaic images on the Korean Peninsula, a study on satellite image segmentation and classification using mosaic images was attempted. However, since mosaic images provide only R, G, and B bands and processes such as image sharpening and color balancing are applied, there is a limitation that the spectral information of original images is distorted, so various indices were extracted and classified using R, G, and B bands to compensate for this. As a result of the study, the accuracy of image classification results using only mosaic images was about 72%, while the accuracy of image classification results using indices extracted from R, G, and B bands together was about 79%. Through this, it was confirmed that when performing image classification using mosaic images on the Korean Peninsula, the image classification results can be improved if the indices extracted from R, G, and B bands are used together. These research results are expected to be applied not only to mosaic images but also to images in which spectral information is limited or only R, G, and B bands are provided.

In this paper, we propose an automatic extraction model for unknown translations and implement an unknown translation extraction system using the proposed model. The proposed model as a phrase-alignment model is incorporated with three models: a phrase-boundary model, a language model, and a translation model. Using the proposed model we implement the system for extracting unknown translations, which consists of three parts: construction of parallel corpora, alignment of Korean and English words, extraction of unknown translations. To evaluate the performance of the proposed system, we have established the reference corpus for extracting unknown translation, which comprises of 2,220 parallel sentences including about 1,500 unknown translations. Through several experiments, we have observed that the proposed model is very useful for extracting unknown translations. In the future, researches on objective evaluation and establishment of parallel corpora with good quality should be performed and studies on improving the performance of unknown translation extraction should be kept up.

This paper proposes a method for structuring the preprocessing process of a training image when color is applied using Pix2Pix, one of the adversarial generative neural network techniques. This paper concentrate on the prediction result can be damaged according to the degree of light reflection of the training image. Therefore, image preprocesisng and parameters for model optimization were configured before model application. In order to increase the image resolution of training and prediction results, it is necessary to modify the of the model so this part is designed to be tuned with parameters. In addition, in this paper, the logic that processes only the part where the prediction result is damaged by light reflection is configured together, and the pre-processing logic that does not distort the prediction result is also configured.Therefore, in order to improve the usability, the accuracy was improved through experiments on the part that applies the light reflection tuning filter to the training image of the Pix2Pix model and the parameter configuration.

The purpose of this study is to analyze how the movie <The Book of Fish> (2021) represents Joseon, which is slowly collapsing with the Neo-Confucian order of the 19th century shaking, and to discuss its meaning. Prior to the analysis, the analysis framework of the historical drama was presented considering the narration characteristics of the historical drama. Using the analysis framework of historical dramas, we confirmed that <The Book of Fish> is representing the image of Jeong Yak-jeon and Jang Chang-dae living their lives as independent individuals between the limitations and possibilities of the times based on the plot structure of the narrative of exile. Through the central memory and surplus memory created through plot and style elements such as contrast between black and white and color images, voice-over narration, chinese poetry subtitles and music, the film asks us universal questions about what it takes to live as an independent individual.

Korea Aerospace Research Institute produces mosaic images of the Korean Peninsula every year to promote the use of satellite images and provides them to users in the public sector. However, since the pan-sharpening and color balancing methodologies are applied during the mosaic image processing, the original spectral information is distorted. In addition, there is a limit to analyze using mosaic images as mosaic images provide only Red, Green and Blue bands excluding Near Infrared (NIR) band. Therefore, in order to compensate for these limitations, this study applied the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) technique and indices extracted from R, G, B bands together for image classification and compared the classification results. As a result of the analysis, the accuracy of the mosaic image classification result was about 67.51%, while the accuracy of the image classification result using both PCA and RGB indices was about 75.86%, confirming that the accuracy of the image classification result can be improved. As a result of comparing the PCA and the RGB indices, the accuracy of the image classification result was about 64.10% and 74.05% respectively. Through this, it was confirmed that the classification accuracy using the RGB indices was higher among the two techniques, and implications were derived that it was important to use high quality reference or supplementary data. In the future, additional indices and techniques are needed to improve the classification and analysis results of mosaic images, and related research is expected to increase the utilization of images that provide only R, G, B or limited spectral information.
