A sub-field rearrangement driving method has been proposed to reduce a DFC (Dynamic False Contour) phenomenon in plasma display panels. The proposed driving method expresses 256 gray levels with 16 sub-fields, while conventional one uses only 8 sub-fields. Notwithstanding the increase in the number of sub-fields, the display time is similar to the conventional 8 sub-fields driving method by appropriate choosing selective writing and selective erasing for sub-fields.

본 논문에서는 2 차원 심초음파도의 경계선 유사 영역에 대해 베이즈 추정기를 사용하여 경계선 검출을 위한 자동문턱 결정방법을 제안하고자 한다. 경계선 유사영역은 전처리과 정에서 흐려진 영상을 명확히 하는데 사용할 열비등방성 확산 방법의 전도계수로부터 얻어진다, 이러한 경계선 유사 영역에 대해 최적 문턱치를 선택하기 위해 베이즈 추정기가 사용되었다. 이 문턱치를 사용하여 영상을 이진화함으로서 심초음파도의 경계선을 자동 적으로 검출하게 된다. 마지막으로 본래의 심초음파도에 위에서 얻어진 경계선을 덧씌움으로써 경계선이 강조된 심초음파도를 얻을 수 있게 된다.

In this paper, we propose a robust real-time myocardial border tracking algorithm for echocardiography. Commonly, after an initial contour of LV border is traced at one or two frame from the entire cardiac cycle, LV contour tracking is performed over the remaining frames. Among a variety of tracking techniques, optical flow method is the most widely used for motion estimation of moving objects. However, when echocardiography data is heavily corrupted in some local regions, the errors bring the tracking point out of the endocardial border, resulting in distorted LV contours. This shape distortion often occurs in practice since the data acquisition is affected by ultrasound artifacts, dropout or shadowing phenomena of cardiac walls. The proposed method deals with this shape distortion problem and reflects the motion realistic LV shape by applying global deformation modeled as affine transform partitively to the contour. We partition the tracking points on the contour into a few groups and determine each affine transform governing the motion of the partitioned contour points. To compute the coefficients of each affine transform, we use the least squares method with equality constraints that are given by the relationship between the coefficients and a few contour points showing good tracking results. Many real experiments show that the proposed method supports better performance than existing methods.

본 논문에서는 4 방향 윤곽선 추적 알고리즘(contour tracking algorithm)과 개선된 ART1을 이용한 영문 명함인식 방법을 제안한다. 영문 명함 영상에서 문자열 추출은 영상을 3배로 축소하여 수평 스미어링 기법(smearing method)과 4방향 윤곽선 추적 방법을 적용하여 문자열 후보 영역을 추출하고 수평 및 수직의 비율과 면적을 이용하여 문자열 영역과 비문자열 영역을 구분하였다. 추출된 문자열 영역에서 개별 문자 추출은 수평 스미링 기법과 윤곽선 추적 알고리즘을 이용하여 추출하였고 개별 문자들의 인식은 ART1 알고리즘을 개선하여 인식에 적용하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 ARTI 알고리즘은 퍼지 합 접속 연산자를 이용하여 유사도를 동적으로 조정함으로써 기존의 ART1을 개선하였다. 추출 및 인식 실험 결과, 제안된 추출 및 인식 방법이 영문 명함 인식에서 효율적인 것을 확인하였다.

In order to improve automobile maneuverability and tire durability, it is very important for one to determine a suitable sidewall contour producing the ideal tension and strain-energy distributions. In order to determine such a sidewall contour, one must apply multi-objective optimization technique. The optimization problem of tire carcass contour involves several objective functions. Hence, we execute the tire contour optimization for improving the maneuverability and the tire durability using satisficing trade-off method. And, the tire optimization also requires long cup time for the sensitivity analysis. In order to resolve this numerical difficulty, we apply neural network algorithm.

The contour method which was originally designed for $2{\times}2{\times}2$ contingency table is studied for $2{\times}2{\times}K$ and $2{\times}3{\times}K$ tables. Whereas a contour plot for a $2{\times}2{\times}K$ table is represented on unit squared two dimensional plane, a contour plot of a $2{\times}3{\times}K$ table can be expressed with a regular hexahedron on three dimensional space. Based on contour plots for categorical data fitted to all possible three dimensional log-linear models, one might identify whether $2{\times}2{\times}k$ or $2{\times}3{\times}K$ tables are collapsible over the third variable.

In this paper, a new adaptive cross-coupling control (CCC) algorithm with an improved contour error model is proposed to maintain contouring precision in high-speed nonlinear contour machining. The proposed method utilizes variable controller gains based on the instantaneous curvature of a contour and the feedrate command. The proposed method is evaluated and compared with the conventional CCC for nonlinear contouring motion through computer simulations. The simulation results show that the proposed CCC improves the contouring accuracy more effectively than the existing method.

An algorithm has been proposed for the automatic detection of optimal epiand endocardial left ventricular borders from 2-D short axis echocardiogram which is degraded by noise and echo drop out. For the implementation of the algorithm, we modified Ballard's Generalized Hough Transform which can be applicable only for deterministic object border, and newly proposed Fuzzy Hough Transform method. The algorithm presented here allows detection of object whose exact shapes are unknown. The algorithm only requires an approximate model of target object based on anatomical data. To detect the approximate epicardial contour of left ventricle, Fuzzy Hough Transform was applied to the echocardiogram. The optimal epicardial contour was founded by using graph searching method which contains cost function analysis process. Using this optimal epicardial contour and average thickness imformation of left ventricular wall, the approximate endocardial line was founded, and graph searching method was also used to detect optimal endocardial contour.

We described a method resonant mode identification in dielectric-disc loaded cylindrical cavity resonators. The characteristic equation is solved by using the ContourPlot graph of Mathematica. Contour graph method uses graphical method. It is comparable with numerical method. The numerical method is very difficult a mode identification. The analysis based on the approximated electromagnetic representation. This kinds of studies only concentrated on the calculation of resonant frequencies, and a mode identification of resonant frequencies have not been covered. But, the contour graph method to analyze the characteristic equations is simple and all parts of resonant frequency graph can be easily drawn, it is possible to calculate precise resonant frequencies and to identify the mode of resonant frequencies.
