An extensive data base of HRTFs (Head Related Transfer Functions) has been established in order to work with high qualifies of 3D acoustic appliances. The basic specifications of the measurement presented are that a spatial resolution of 10$^{\circ}$ in elevation angles (ranging from -40$^{\circ}$ to 90$^{\circ}$) and uniform spatial resolution of 5$^{\circ}$ in azimuth angles. The distance from the measurement sources to the centre of the dummy head is 2m and the sampling frequency is 48 kHz and the quantisation depth is 24-bits. The data is presented for three arrangements of pinna models (large, small and no pinna) which were combined with the open and blocked ear canal cases to give a total of 6 sets of measurements. The data base may contribute to show promise of providing useful applications of 3D sound.

The use of computed tomography for dental procedures has increased recently. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems have been designed for imaging hard tissues of the dentomaxillofacial region. CBCT is capable of providing high resolution in images of high diagnostic quality. This technology allows for 3-dimensional representation of the dentomaxillofacial skeleton with minimal distortion, but at lower equipment cost, simpler image acquisition and lower patient dose. Because this technology produces images with isotropic sub-millimeter spatial resolution, it is ideally suited for dedicated dentomaxillofacial imaging. In this paper, we provide a brief overview of cone beam scanning technology and compare it with the fan beam scanning used in conventional CT and the basic principles of currently available CBCT systems.

본 연구에서는 가변적 공간 단위의 문제를 고려한 시공간 자료 분석 방법을 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 기존의 시계열 연구에서는 행정 구역 신설이나 경계 변동같은 공간 단위(areal unit)의 가변성을 제대로 반영하지 못했기 때문에 속성 자료와 공간 자료의 불부합 현상이 있었다. 지역의 공간적 특성과 시공간적 변화를 지가 변동분석을 통하여 살펴보기 위해서는 분석 공간 단위의 가변성에 영향을 받지 않도록 개별적인 정보를 유지할 수 있는 시공간 데이터베이스를 구축하는 것이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 기본 격자로 공간 단위를 구성함으로써 분석 기준 시점의 속성 자료와 공간자료를 일치시킬 수 있었기 때문에 ‘가변적 공간 단위의 문제’를 보완할 수 있었다.

High resolution panchromatic satellite images collected by sensors such as IRS-1C/D and KOMPSAT-1 have a spatial resolution of approximately 6 ${\times}$ 6 ㎡, making them very attractive for urban applications. However, the spectral information present in these images is very limited. In order to overcome this limitation, an object-oriented classification approach is used to identify basic land cover types in urban areas. Before an image can be classified it is segmented at different aggregation levels using a multiresolution segmentation approach. In the course of this segmentation various statistical as well as topological information is collected for each segment. Based on this information it is possible to classify image objects and to arrive at much better results than by looking only at single pixels. Using an image recorded by KOMPSAT-1 over the City of Vienna a land cover classification was carried out for two areas. One was used to set up the rules for the different land cover types. The second subset was classified based on these rules, only adjusting some of the functions governing the classification process.

As a new standard for performance measurement, NEMA NU2-2001 was presented recently. In this study, I investigated the spatial resolution, sensitivity, scatter fraction, and noise equivalent count ratio (NECR) in order to know the information of physical characteristics and system performance of GE discovery ST using this new standard. Bismuth germinate crystals ($6{\times}6$ array, $6.3mm{\times}6.3mm{\times}30mm$) were used in discovery ST (energy window:375-650 keV, coincidence window:11.7 nsec). To measure the sensitivity, five aluminum sleeves (Data Spectrum Corp., Chapel Hill, NC., USA, thickness:1.25 mm)-NEMA sensitivity phantom- filled with F-18 solution were used. Successive measurements in 2D and 3D acquisition mode were made with a line source at the center of transaxial field of view and 10 cm off from the center until the count was over 500,000. Spatial resolution was estimated using a point source (F-18, 0.1 mCi) at different locations in the FOV. Scatter fraction and NECR was tested using a NEMA scatter phantom. Dynamic data were acquired for 7 half-lives using F-18 solution. And true to background ratio was averaged at last three frames when the random rate was as small as ignorable for the calculation of scatter fraction. We anticipate this overall evaluated results could be used for the quality assurance and optimized image acquisition for clinical research.

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a promising technology for monitoring physical phenomena at fine-grained spatial and temporal resolution. However, the typical approach of sending each sensed measurement out of the network for detailed spatial analysis of transient physical phenomena may not be an efficient or scalable solution. This paper focuses on in-network physical phenomena detection schemes, particularly the distributed computation of the boundary of physical phenomena (i.e. event), to support energy efficient spatial analysis in wireless sensor networks. In-network processing approach reduces the amount of network traffic and thus achieves network scalability and lifetime longevity. This study investigates the recent advances in distributed event detection based on in-network processing and includes a concise comparison of various existing schemes. These boundary detection schemes identify not only those sensor nodes that lie on the boundary of the physical phenomena but also the interior nodes. This constitutes an event geometry which is a basic building block of many spatial queries. In this paper, we introduce the challenges and opportunities for research in the field of in-network distributed event geometry boundary detection as well as illustrate the current status of research in this field. We also present new areas where the event geometry boundary detection can be of significant importance.

건설, 의료, 컴퓨터 그래픽스, 도시공간 관리 등 다양한 분야에서 3차원 공간정보 모델이 이용되고 있다. 특히 측량 및 공간정보 분야에서는 최근 고품질의 3차원 공간정보와 실내공간정보에 대한 수요가 폭발적으로 증가하고 있으나, 현재 공간정보 데이터가 다양한 형식과 저장구조로 구성되어 관리되고 있어 저비용 고효율의 3차원 공간정보 서비스가 어려운 상황이다. 실제로 활용도 높은 3차원 모델을 구축하기 위한 기술은 관측과 처리에 고액의 비용이 발생하지만, 대부분의 수요처에서는 이러한 고비용의 공간정보 구축에 어려움을 느끼는 경우가 대부분이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 저비용의 3D 공간정보 모델을 구축하기 위한 효율적인 방안을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 현재의 3D 모델의 구축 방법 중 가장 효율적인 방법으로는 기존에 구축되어 있는 Point Cloud, UAV 관측영상 등의 원시데이터를 활용하여 비용을 절감시키는 방법이 있지만, 이는 관리하는 기관이 분리되어 있고 사용하기 위해 요청하는 절차가 복잡하여 활용에 제한이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 이를 해결하기 위해서 도로대장 관리 분야를 대상으로 3D 구축에 필요한 기반데이터를 통합하여 연계하고 관리 할 수 있는 통합관리 시스템 개발을 수행하였으며, 다양한 형태의 원시자료를 Point Cloud 형식으로 구성하여 도로대장 관리에 적용할 경우 6개의 주요 관리항목을 효과적 구축 및 관리할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

The histogram specification is to change the histogram shape of the image into the already defined shape. This technique can be applied usefully in various image processing fields which include a machine vision. However, the histogram specification technique has its basic limits. For example, the histogram does not have location information of pixel within the image and receives the digital image, which is stored through a quantization process, as an input. Namely, the accuracy of specification falls in the high-resolution image because the larger the resolution of image is becoming, the more the pixels having similar value are becoming. Therefore, we proposed the multiresolution histogram specification method for improving the accuracy of specification. Consequently, we can know that if the histogram specification is accomplished by using the proposed algorithm, destination image and source image were changed almost similarly.
