This paper presents a method for detecting scene changes in video sequences, in which the $chi^{2}$-test is modified by imposing weights according to NTSC standard. To automatically determine threshold values for scene change detection, the proposed method utilizes the frame differences that are obtained by the weighted $chi^{2}$-test. In the first step, the mean and the standard deviation of the difference values are calculated, and then, we subtract the mean difference value from each difference value. In the next step, the same process is performed on the remained difference values, mean-subtracted frame differences, until the stopping criterion is satisfied. Finally, the threshold value for scene change detection is determined by the proposed automatic threshold estimation algorithm. The proposed method is tested on various video sources and, in the experimental results, it is shown that the proposed method is reliably estimates the thresholds and detects scene changes.

무선 센서망에서 이동노드의 위치를 추정하는데 센서노드의 클럭주파수 차이는 TOF 추정에 중요한 파라메타이며, 이동노드와 고정노드 간의 거리 추정에 크게 영향을 미친다. IEEE802.15.4a에서는 별도의 유선 등에 의한 망동기 공급이 없는 상태에서도 주파수 차이에 둔감한 비동기 TWR 및 SDS-TWR 거리 추정 방식을 제안하고 있다. 그러나 제안된 비동기 TWR 및 SDS-TWR 방식은 여전히 노드 쌍에 따른 주파수 차이, 프레임 처리 시간, 프레임 처리 시간 차이 등에 의한 영향을 충분히 제거하지 못하고 있다. 특히 주파수 차이가 큰 저가의 발진기 사용, 서로 다른 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어에서 동작하는 센서노드는 더 큰 위치추정 오류를 유발할 수 있다. 본 논문은 주파수 차이를 추정하는 방식을 제안하고, 기존의 TWR 및 SDS-TWR 방식에 적용하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 주파수 차이 추정을 적용한 제안된 방식은 주파수 차이의 영향을 감소시켜 TWR 및 SDS-TWR 등의 성능을 개선시켰으며, 25cm 이하의 위치오류가 발생하는 것을 확인하였다.

The Bank of Korea changed its method of GDP estimation from a fixed-weighted to a chain-weighted measure in 2009. The fixed-weighted method had had problems such as substitution bias and the rewriting of economic history. As a result of the change, annual growth rates calculated using the chain-weighted method from 1970 through 2008 turned out to be 0.8%p higher on average than the existing rates. The quarterly average chain-weighted growth rates were 0.19%p higher than the fixed-weighted ones, but they changed in the same directions. In this paper we analyze whether the differences in rates between the two calculation methods would bring about a difference in the cyclical characteristics of GDP. We conclude that although there were differences in growth rates after introduction of the chain-weighted method, there was no difference in the cyclical fluctuation.

In this paper, the effectiveness and accuracy of using the direct estimation method were investigated in determining a worker's lifting capacity or the maximum acceptable weight of lifting (MAWOL) of symmetrical fifting tasks in the workplace were investigated. Six lifting tasks involving two vertical fifting start-end points (0-80cm, 47-102cm) and three lifting frequencies (1, 2, and 4 lifts/minute) were studied. Ten young, male subjects performed the six lifting tasks to predict the MAWOL using the psychophysical method and the direct estimation method. The main results indicated that there were no significant differences between the MAWOLs determined by the two methods except for the lifting frequency of 4 lifts/minute. Analysis of variance was performed on the task rating data to check the consistency of the task rating across subjects, which revealed no significant difference.

This study aimed to test method on the accuracy of estimating the items parameters and ability, using the Three Parameter Logistic. To achieve the objectives of the study, an achievement test in chemistry was constructed for third-year secondary school students in the course of "natural sciences". A descriptive approach was employed to conduct the study. The test was applied to a sample of (507) students of the third year of secondary school in the "Natural Sciences Course". The study's results revealed that the (EAP) method showed a higher degree of accuracy in the estimation of the difficulty parameter and the abilities of persons higher than the MML method. There were no statistically significant differences in the accuracy of the parameter estimation of discrimination and guessing regarding the difference of the two methods: (MML) and (EAP).

Objective: The aim of this paper is to survey the gender differences Work-related musculoskeletal disorders among agriculture workers. Background: The number of occupational injuries has been decreasing trend in Korea, but it has been increasing in agriculture. The ratio of women worker shows steady increasing trend among the agricultural worker in Korea. Method: This study investigated through the questionnaire to 358 agricultural workers who are working for agriculture located in Gyeongnam, Gyeongbuk and Jeju. Results: The task types occurring frequently and the weight of a heavy object handled according to the sex were showed statistically significant difference. The estimation of WMSDs patients by sex appeared statistically very significant difference. Conclusion: The prevalence rate of WMSDs in female was about 21 percent higher than the prevalence rate of WMSDs in male. Application: The result of this study will help improvement of work environment and prevention of WMSDs in agricultural work.

This paper addresses a new passive target tracking problem using the range differences measured by cooperative UAVs. In order to solve the range difference based passive target tracking problem within the framework of linear robust state estimation, the uncertain linear measurement model which contains the stochastic parameter uncertainty is derived by using the noisy range difference measurements. To cope with the performance degradation due to the stochastic parameter uncertainty, the recently developed non-conservative robust Kalman filtering technique [1] is applied. For the cruciform formation flying UAVs, the relationship between the target tracking performance and the measurement errors is quantitatively analyzed. The proposed filter has practical advantages over the classical nonlinear filters because, for its recursive linear structure, it can provide satisfactory convergence properties and is suitable for real-time multiple UAVs applications. Through the simulations, the usefulness of the proposed method is demonstrated.

Purpose : This study is to know how position change in high-heels affects sacral tilt angle. 15 healthy women aged 21.87(standard deviation=3.54) were tested. Method : Lumbar and sacral tilt angle was measured by radiography barefooted, and after 15 mins of application time, they were measured in the same way in high-heels. Result : There was not notable difference in lumbar lordosis, lumbosacral angle, and sacral tilt angle. However, there was differences in change degree, which was measured by estimation data of [post-pre)/pre]${\times}$100. Conclusion : There was no notable difference in lumbar lordosis, lumbosacral angle, and sacral tilt angle, but as there were differences in change degree, research about how women's lumbar change when heel height increases is needed.

본 논문은 DID(Difference in Differences) 추정모형을 이용하여 유럽공동체 25개 회원국에 대해 2005년~2007년간 1단계 시행이 완료된 바 있는 배출권거래제도가 참여 국가들의 이산화탄소 배출량을 감소시키는 효과가 있었는지를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 이러한 배출권거래제 1단계 시행이 적용되지 않았던 17개국을 포함한 유럽 대륙 42개국에 대한 1990년~2007년까지의 패널자료를 구축하였다. 추정결과를 도출함에 있어서 계열 상관이 존재하는 경우 DID 추정에서 발생할 수 있는 통상적 표준오차의 편차 문제를 고려하여 두 가지의 강건한 표준오차 값들을 추가적으로 계산하여 제시하였다. 그 결과 배출권거래제의 시행이 이산화탄소 배출량을 감소시키는 효과가 표준오차의 계산방법에 무관하게 상당히 일관되고 강건하게 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다. 아울러 잠재에너지세율의 증가 역시 일관되게 일인당 이산화탄소 배출량을 감소시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 일인당 GDP나 인구밀도 등이 일인당 이산화탄소 배출량에 미치는 영향은 표준오차의 계산방법에 따라 일관되지 못한 결과를 나타내었다. 특히 환경쿠즈네츠가설은 강건한 표준오차를 사용하는 경우 통계적으로 뒷받침되지 못하였다.

The VSA(Video Signal Analysis) method is the time-domain approach for estimating ultrasonic attenuation which utilizes the envelop signals from backscattered rf signals. The echogenicity of backscattered ultrasonic signals, however, from deeper depths are distorted when the broadband transmit pulse is used and it degrades the estimation accuracy of attenuation coefficients. We propose the modified VSA method using adaptive bandpass filters according to the centroid shift of echo signals as a pulse propagates. The technique of dual-reference diffraction compensation is also proposed to minimize the estimation errors because the difference of attenuation properties between the reference and sample aggravates the estimation accuracy when the differences are accumulated in deeper depth. The proposed techniques minimize the distortion of relative echogenicity and maximize the signal-to-noise ratio at the given depth. Simulation results for numerical tissue-mimicking phantoms show that the Rectangular-shaped filter with the appropriate center frequency exhibits the best estimation performance and the technique of the dual-reference diffraction compensation dramatically improves accuracy for the region after the beam focus.
