A categorization for cluster is necessary when an unsupervised classfication is used for remote sensing image classification. It is desirable that this method is performed automatically, because manual categorization is a highly time consuming process. In this paper, several automatic determination methods were proposed and evaluated. They are four methods. a) maximum number method : which assigns the tharget cluster to the category which occupies the largest area of that cluster b) maximum percentage method : which assigns the target cluster to the category which shows the maximum percentage within the category in that cluster. c) minmun distance method : which assigns the target cluster to the category having minmum distance with that cluster d) element ratio matching method : which assigns local regions to the category having the most similar element ratio of that region From the results of the experiments, it was certified that the result of minimum distance method was almost the same as the result made by a human operator.

The accidential errors of horizontal angles are influenced by sighting, reading and eccentric errors etc. This paper deals with the influence of eccentric error by the formula of theory and evaluation, and actually testing measurement. The results show that the eccentric error is calculated through the sighting distance, observed angle, eccentric distance and angle. And then, three repeating method is of practical use, and also, eccentric error is able to evaluate through the sighting distance and observed angle in according to performance of each instrument.

Multi-Spectral Camera(MSC) is a payload on the KOMPSAT -2 satellite to perform the earth remote sensing. The instrument images the earth using a push-broom motion with a swath width of 15 km and a ground sample distance (GSD) of 1 m over the entire field of view (FOV) at altitude 685 Km. The instrument is designed to have an on-orbit operation duty cycle of $20\%$ over the mission lifetime of 3 years with the functions of programmable gain! offset and onboard image data compression/storage. MSC instrument has one(1) channel for panchromatic Imaging and four(4) channel for multi-spectral Imaging covering the spectral range from 450nm to 900nm using TDI CCD Focal Plane Array (FPA). In this paper, the configuration, the interface of MSC hardware and the MSC operation concept are described. And the method of the MSC calibration are described and the design of MSC calibration operation to measure the change of MSC after Launch & Early Operation(LEOP) and normal mission operations are discussed and analyzed.

The purpose of this study was to restore So-ganui(小簡儀), which is a unique astronomical instrument during Sejong period, so that its educational application can be sought. To achieve it, researcher researched the observation principle of our ancestors and the structure of So-ganui, and then restored So-ganui. The result is as following. First, So-ganui is the astronomical observation instrument which can not only measure the position of the celestial bodies in terms of function but also find out the height and distance of topography, and get the time. Second, restoration So-ganui is suitable for the students to learn as an inquiry activity of the observation information in the science curriculum and it would be used as the learning materials for the proper understanding of the science and measurement principle of our ancestors. This study would contribute to raising the level of pride in our scientific culture for the students and succeed the heritage of the science and culture.

This paper proposes a method to estimate vertical interaction force to the end of the surgical instrument by measuring reaction force at the part supporting the trocar. Relation between the force to the trocar and the interaction force is derived using the beam theory. The vertical interaction force is modeled as a function of the reaction force to the trocar and the distance between the drape plate and the trocar. Experimental results show that error is induced by the asymmetric shape of the trocar tip because contact position between the instrument and the trocar tip is changed depending on the direction of the interaction force. The theoretical relation, therefore, is compensated and reduced. Average $L_2$ relative error of the estimated force in the x-direction and the y-direction is 5.81 % and 5.99 %, respectively.

GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) is the first dedicated gravity mapping mission. Its primary measurements are the distance changes between two co-orbiting low earth satellites. GRACE is a joint development by NASA and German DLR and was launched in March 2002. GRACE improves the Earth gravity model accuracy by nearly two factor of magnitude over pre-launch models. After brief description of the GRACE primary instrument, inter-satellite ranging system, its flight status and preliminary performance evaluation is presented. Ranging system error models, which were not included in the pre-launch performance model and design specifications, are identified through analyzing the flight data. Base on this analysis, future research topics on the GRACE instrument performance analysis are discussed.

In this study, We made visual inspection system using Vision Board. It is consist of an illuminator (a fluorescent lamp), image input device (CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) camera), image processing system(Vision Board(FARAMVB-02)), image output device (video monitor, printer), and a measuring instrument(TELMN1000). Length measurement by visual inspection system make use of 100mm guage block(instead of calculating distance between a camera and a object). It measured horizontal and vertical length factor from 400mm to 650mm by increasing 50mm. In this place, measured horizontal and vertical length factor made use of length measure- ment of a injection. A measuring instrument used to ompare a measured length of a injection visual inspection system with it. In conclusion, length measurement of a injection compared a measuring instrument with visual inspecion system using length factor of 100mm gauge block. We find that maximum error of length is 0.55mm when it compar with the measuring value of two devices(FARAMVB-02, TELMN1000). Program of visual inspection system is made up Borland C++3.1.

Recently, many on-line approaches to instrument channel surveillance (drift monitoring and fault detection) have been reported worldwide. On-line monitoring (OLM) method evaluates instrument channel performance by assessing its consistency with other plant indications through parametric or non-parametric models. The heart of an OLM system is the model giving an estimate of the true process parameter value against individual measurements. This model gives process parameter estimate calculated as a function of other plant measurements which can be used to identify small sensor drifts that would require the sensor to be manually calibrated or replaced. This paper describes an improvement of auto-associative kernel regression by introducing a correlation coefficient weighting on kernel distances. The prediction performance of the developed method is compared with conventional auto-associative kernel regression.

Seeing is an intelligent act. Retina is the most important part among the components of eye which is comprised of iris, pupil, lens, optic disk, and so forth. Because retina acts like a photo receiver to detect light from every object, if damaged, animals have a severe problem to live along with themselves and sometimes they lose their sight. In the ophthalmology, doctors use special instrument to see exact retina image of object and operate the surgery by rotating focus control knob. In this study, a basic test is done to achieve the auto focus control instrument. Specially made sledge and attenuator are installed on the optic bed to change the distance and laser power between the first reflective mirror and the second one. Control panel which is compiled by Visual C t t to control stepping motors ,laser power and photodiode are implemented with ADA-board.
