A new simple relation for the estimation of modal correlation coefficients is presented. It is obtained from the decomposition of covariances of modal responses into background and resonant contributions, as it is commonly done for the variances. Thanks to appropriate assumptions, the modal correlation coefficients are estimated as weighted sums of two limit values, corresponding to the background and resonant responses respectively. The weighting coefficients are expressed as functions of the background-to-resonant ratios, which makes the proposed formulation convenient and easily accessible. The simplicity of the mathematical formulation facilitates the physical interpretation. It is for example proved that modal correlation coefficients can be non negligable even in case of well separated natural frequencies, which is sometimes unclear in the litterature. The new relation is mainly efficient in case of large finite element models. It is applied and validated on a finite element buffeting analysis of the Viaduct of Millau, the highest bridge deck ever built so far.

In order to solve the problem of uncovered background region due to the region-due to the region-based motion estimation, this paper presents a new method which generates the uncovered region memory using motion estimation and shows the application of the algorithm for very low bit rate video coding. The proposed algorithm can be briefly described as follows it detects the changed region by using the information of FD(frame difference) and segmentation, and then as for only that region the backward motion estimation without transmission of shape information is done. Therefore, from only motion information the uncovered background region memory is generated and updated. The contents stored in the uncovered background region memory are referred whenever the uncovered region comes into existence. The regions with large prediction error are transformed and coded by using DCT. As results of simulation, the proposed algorithm shows the superior improvement in the subjective and objective image quality due to the remarkable reduction of transmission bits for prediction error.

Reverse engineering of reliefs aims to turn an existing relief superimposed on an underlying surface into a geometric model which may be applied to a different base surface. Steps in this process include segmenting the relief from the background, and describing it as an offset height field relative to the underlying surface. We have previously considered relief segmentation using a geometric snake. Here, we show how to use this initial segmentation to estimate the background surface lying under the relief, which can be used (i) to refine the segmentation and (ii) to express the relief as an offset field. Our approach fits a B-spline surface patch to the measured background data surrounding the relief, while tension terms ensure this background surface smoothly continues underneath the relief where there are no measured background data points to fit. After making an initial estimate of relief offset height everywhere within the patch, we use a support vector machine to refine the segmentation. Tests demonstrate that this approach can accurately model the background surface where it underlies the relief, providing more accurate segmentation, as well as relief height field estimation. In particular, this approach provides significant improvements for relief concavities with narrow mouths and can segment reliefs with small internal holes.

입력영상에 대하여 전처리과정으로 배경을 분리하는 것이 영상처리 및 인식 성능에 중요한 영향을 준다. 본 논문에서는 화재검출을 위한 영상인식 전처리로 활용하는 다양한 배경추정 알고리즘에 대하여 계산량과 배경추정 성능 분석하였다. 비교하는 배경추정알고리즘은 Gaussian Running Average 추정기법, Mixture of Gaussian 모델, 그리고 KDE (kernel density estimate) 알고리즘에 대한 성능을 평가하였다. 입력영상에 대하여 배경영상차로부터 연기를 검출하는데 있어 KDE 알고리즘이 배경추정 성능은 우수한 것을 확인하였다.

In the actual situation of measuring the environmental noise, it is very often that only the resultant phenomenon fluctuation contaminated by the additional noise of arbitrary distribution type can be observed. Furthermore, the observed data is usually given in a sound level form the purpose of estimating only the undisturbed objective output response, some estimation method is necessary to reasonably remove the effect of the above additional noise. In this paper, first, a mathematical model of arbitrary sound insulation systems is introduced in the form of a linear system on intensity scale, by using the well-known additive property of energy quantities. Next, some estimation method of the output response under the existence of background noise is derived. Then, based on the expression of the above estimation method, a new prediction method of only the output response probability function form for arbitrary sound insulation systems without. a background noise is proposed by use of observed data contaminated by a background noise. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed experimentally too by applying it to the actual various type sound wall systems.

본 논문에서는 급성 알코올성 간 손상과 만성 에탄올성 간섬유증이 유도된 마우스로부터 획득한 라만 스펙트럼에서 배경 잡음을 제거하기 위한 기준선 추정 방법을 조사하였다. 기준선을 추정하기 위해 일차 미분, 선형계획법, rolling ball을 이용한 방법을 적용하였다. 각 방법의 적절한 압력 파라미터를 MAP(maximum a posteriori probability)의 훈련율에 의해 결정하였다. 실험 절과에 따르면 rolling ball 알고리즘을 이용한 기준선 추정 방법이 급성 알코올성 간 손상과 만성 에탄올성 간섬유증의 MAP 분류에서 평균 89.4%로 가장 좋은 결과를 나타냈다. 이 결과로부터 라만 스펙트럼의 기준선 추정에 적절한 방법과 파라미터를 결정하는 것이 분류 성능에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다.

The power spectrum of background EEG is estimated by the Plsarenko Harmonic Decomposition with the stochastic process whlch consists of the nonhamonic sinus Bid and the white nosie. The estimation results are examined and compared with the results from the maximum entropy spectral extimation, and the optimal order of this from the maximum entropy spectral extimation, and the optimal order of this model can be determined from the eigen value's fluctuation of autocorrelation of background EEG. From the comparing results, this method is possible to estimate the power spectrum of background EEG.

Detecting remote targets is important to active protection system (APS) or infrared search and track (IRST) applications. In normal situation, the well-known constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detector works properly. However, decoys in APS or closely spaced targets in IRST degrade the detection capability by increasing background noise level in the CFAR detector. This paper presents a context aware CFAR detector by the intensity sorting and selection of background region to reduce the effect of neighboring targets that lead to incorrect estimation of background statistics. The existence of neighboring targets can be recognized by intensity sorting where neighboring targets usually show highest ranks. The proposed background statistics (mean, standard deviation) estimation method from median local pixels can be aware of the background context and reduce the effects of the neighboring targets, which increase the signal-to-clutter ratio. The experimental results on the synthetic APS sequence, real adjacent target sequence, and remote pedestrian sequence validated that the proposed method produced an enhanced detection rate with the same false alarm rate compared with the hysteresis-CFAR (H-CFAR) detection.
