In this paper, we designed an ART(Adaptive Resonance Theory) network based on LPC(Linear Prediction Coefficient) for classification of PVB (Premature Ventricular Beat: PVC, LBBB, RBBB). The procedure of proposed system consists of the error calculation, feature generation and processing of the ART network. The error is calculated after processing by linear prediction algorithm and the features of ART network or classification are obtained from the binary ata determined by threshold method. In conclusion, ART network has good performance in classification of PVB.

The methods that track and detect motion field based on image difference of successive images from camera can separate motion field and background effectively, but because of noise and background images getting proper difference images is hard to achieve. In this paper we propose a method that can improve difference image quality significantly. Three step process is used. At the first step, existence of motion field is determined, the second step is finding proper threshold value using 'Contrast Streching' technique which enables us to find proper motion field even in complex images. At last step, remaining noise is removed and motion field is determined.

최근에 차량수의 증가로 인하여 교통량이 증가하고 그로 인하여 ITS(Intelligent Transport System)에 대한 관심이 증가하게 되었다. 그 중에서도 LPR system(License Plate Recognition system)은 ITS에서 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 논문에서는 차량의 번호를 인식하기 위해 선행되어야 하는 과정인 대상 차량의 번호판 영역을 추출하고 구성 숫자들을 분리하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 알고리즘은 영상에서 차량의 번호판 영역을 찾는 부분과 번호판의 숫자를 분리하는 부분으로 구성이 되어 있다. 먼저 입력 영상에서 gradient를 구하게 된다. 구해진 gradient에서 차량의 구조와 transition의 횟수를 조사를 통해서 번호판 영역을 찾게 된다. 찾아진 번호판 영역에서 adaptive threshold를 적용하여 숫자들을 분리하게 된다. 실내 주차장 환경에서 촬영된 영상을 대상으로 실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 정리하였다.

In this paper, we study the effect of Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte (CTL) and antibody immune responses on the virus dynamics with both virus-to-cell and cell-to-cell transmissions. The infection rate is given by Holling type-II. We first show that the model is biologically acceptable by showing that the solutions of the model are nonnegative and bounded. We find the equilibria of the model and investigate their global stability analysis. We derive five threshold parameters which fully determine the existence and stability of the five equilibria of the model. The global stability of all equilibria of the model is proven using Lyapunov method and applying LaSalle's invariance principle. To support our theoretical results we have performed some numerical simulations for the model. The results show the CTL and antibody immune response can control the disease progression.

In the dental field, the 3D tooth model in which each tooth can be manipulated individually is an essential component for the simulation of orthodontic surgery and treatment. To reconstruct such a tooth model from CT slices, we need to define the accurate boundary of each tooth from CT slices. However, the global threshold method, which is commonly used in most existing 3D reconstruction systems, is not effective for the tooth segmentation in the CT image. In tooth CT slices, some teeth touch with other teeth and some are located inside of alveolar bone whose intensity is similar to that of teeth. In this paper, we propose an image segmentation algorithm based on B-spline curve fitting to produce smooth tooth regions from such CT slices. The proposed algorithm prevents the malfitting problem of the B-spline algorithm by providing accurate initial tooth boundary for the fitting process. This paper proposes an optimal threshold scheme using the intensity and shape information passed by previous slice for the initial boundary generation and an efficient B-spline fitting method based on genetic algorithm. The test result shows that the proposed method detects contour of the individual tooth successfully and can produce a smooth and accurate 3D tooth model for the simulation of orthodontic surgery and treatment.

This paper deals with the problem of double-talk (DT) detection in anacoustic echo canceller (AEC). In the DT detection algorithm with correlation coefficient, detection errors occasionally occur because it is hard to set the threshold to distinguish DT from echo path change (EPC). Adaptive filter falls into the situation that it stops updating its filter coefficients when EPC is erroneously considered as DT at the starting-point of EPC. In addition, in case of echo path changing during the DT period, the end-point detection of DT period fails so that the AEC cannot update its filter coefficients for a while even after the DT period ends. To solve these problems, in this paper, we propose a novel AEC that employs an auxiliary filter. We use the idea that though the error signal cannot be estimated using reference signal in case or DT situation but it can be in case or EPC situation. The experimental result verifies that the proposed method could solve the problems caused by DT detection error or echo path change during the DT period.

Recent prevalence of progressive scan display such as LCD TV demands the quality improvement of existing deinterlacing techniques that convert interlaced scan images including HDTV broadcasting to progressive scan images. In this paper, we proposea motion adaptive deinterlacing technique which can be used for spatial methods, temporal methods, and the spatial-temporal methods can be used for the deinterlacing techniques selectively based on the threshold values calculated by the statistics of motion in the video contents. We also propose an improved spatial deinterlacing technique that adaptively use M-ELA and DOI based on the slant of edges that are obtained by Sobel operation. The improved picture quality of the proposed algorithm is confirmed by objective and subjective quality tests on many test image sequences.

In this paper, we present an auto-range fast bilateral filter (FBF) for high-dynamic-range (HDR) images, which increases computation speed by using adaptive standard deviations for range filter (RF) of FBF in iCAM06. Many images that cover the entire dynamic range of the scene with different exposure times are fused into one High Dynamic Range (HDR) image. The representative algorithm for HDR image rendering is iCAM06, which is based on the iCAM framework, such as the local white point adaptation, chromatic adaptation, and the image processing transform (IPT) uniform color space. FBF in iCAM06 uses constant standard deviation in RF. So, it causes unnecessary FBF computation in high stimulus range with broad and low distribution. To solve this problem, the low stimulus image and high stimulus image of CIE tri-stimulus values (XYZ) divided by the threshold are respectively processed by adaptive standard deviation based on its histogram distribution. Experiment results show that the proposed method reduces computation time than the previous FBF.
