In this paper, we propose an algorithm to extract rectangular object area such 3s Data Matrix two-dimensional barcode using edge tracing-based linear feature detection. Hough transform is usually employed to detect lines of edge map. However, it requires parametric image space, and does not find the location of end points of the detected lines. Our algorithm detects end points of the detected lines using edge tracing and extracts object area using its shape information.

Success of semiconductor/LCD industry depends on its yield and quality of product. For the purpose, FDC (Fault Detection and Classification) system is used to diagnose fault state in main manufacturing processes by monitoring time series data collected by equipment sensors which represent various conditions of the equipment. The data set is segmented at the start and end of each product lot processing by a trigger event module. However, in practice, segmented sensor data usually have the features of data asynchronization such as different start points, end points, and data lengths. Due to the asynchronization problem, false alarm (type I error) and missed alarm (type II error) occur frequently. In this paper, we propose a robust process fault detection system by integrating a process event detection method and a similarity measuring method based on dynamic time warping algorithm. An experiment shows that the proposed system is able to recognize abnormal condition correctly under the asynchronous data situation.

In this paper, we first studied the factors affecting the motor current (MC) signal, which was strongly affected by the systematic hardware noises depending on polishing such as pad conditioning and arm oscillation of platen and recipe, head motor. Next, we studied the end point detection (EPD) for the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process of shallow trench isolation (STI) with reverse moat structure. The MC signal showed a high amplitude peak in the fore part caused by the reverse meal. pattern. We also found that the EP could not be detected properly and reproducibly due to the pad conditioning effect, especially when conventional low selectivity slurry was used. Even when there was no pad conditioning effect, the EPD method could not be applied, since the measured end points were always the same due to the characteristics of the reverse moat structure with an open nitride layer.

A Method for detection of saturation of a current transformer(CT) is proposed. The algorithm is initiated when the end point of a saturation period is detected. This detection is achieved by checking the time interval between the adjacent zero-crossing points of the second derivative of the secondary current. Once the end point of the saturation period is detected, the beginning point of the corresponding saturation period is determined by backward examination of the sum of the secondary current from the end point. The performance of the algorithm was evaluated for a-g faults on a 345 kV 100km overhead transmission line. The Electromagnetic Transient Program(EMTP) was used to generate fault current signals for different fault inception angles and different remanent fluxes. The performance evaluation shows that the proposed algorithm successfully detects the saturation period even in the presence of a remanent flux.

가속도계 신호를 대상으로 패턴 인식을 행하는 연구에서 공통적으로 사용될 수 있는 끝점 검출 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 연구 결과물은 추가적인 단추 등을 부착하여 수동으로 구분하거나, 고성능 고주파 대역 필터 등의 사용으로 알고리즘 상에서 필히 시간 지연이 발생하며 또한 알고리즘 구현상 여러 매개 변수 및 이를 위한 문턱값이 존재하였다. 본 논문에서는 가속도의 일계도 미분의 시퀀스를 입력 벡터로 사용하여, 시계열 데이터 예측과 유사한 형태로 focused Time Lagged Feedforward Network(TLFN)을 설계, 이를 학습시키는 방법을 제안 하였다. 제안한 방법을 글자 궤적에 대해 적용하여 신뢰도 있는 끝점 검출 성능과 실시간 응답 특성을 확인하였다.

When a current transformer (CT) is saturated, the wave-shape of the secondary current is distorted and contains points of inflection, which correspond to the start or end of each saturation period. Discontinuity in the first-difference function of the current arises at points of inflection, where the second and third differences convert into pulses that can be used to detect saturation. This paper describes the design and evaluation of a CT saturation detection technique using the third-difference function and includes the countermeasure for a spike signal. Test results clearly demonstrate that the algorithm successfully detects the start and end of each saturation period irrespective of the remanent flux and magnetization inductance in the saturated region. This paper concludes by describing the results of hardware implementation of the algorithm using a DSP.

EPD(End Point Detection) is used to decide etching degree of layer which must be removed at wafer etching process in plasma etching process which is one of the most important process in semiconductor manufacturing. In this thesis, the method which detects malfunction of etching process in real-time will be discussed. Several EPD signal traces are collected in normal plasma etching condition and used as reference EPD signal traces. Critical points can be detected by applying differentiation and zero-crossing techniques to reference EPD signal. Mean and standard deviation of critical parameters which is memorized from reference EPD signal are calculated and these determine the lower and higher limit of control chart. And by applying statical control chart to EPD signals which are collected in real etching process malfunctions of process are detected in real-time. By means of applying this method to the real etching process we prove our method can accurately detect the malfunction of etching process and can compensate disadvantage of current industrial method.

Corner positioning templates are proposed in order to detect the accurate positions of corners that are extracted using 4-directional edge labeling. Top-down and bottom-up directional labeling are used to label the edge segments with four kinds of labels according to their directions. The points whose labels have changed are then determined as corners. The exact positions of the missing corners due to the disconnected edges are detected through the corner positioning templates that are determined according to the labels of start-points and end-points after the two-pass edge labeling. Experiment results show that the proposed method can detect the exact positions of the real corners.

본 논문에서는 반향이 큰 로봇 환경에 강인한 음성 끝점 검출 방법을 제안한다. 양방향 대화 로봇과 같이 반향대 신호 비가 -5 dB 이하인 반향환경에서는, 반향제거기의 성능이 저하되어 사용자 음성 에너지와 비슷한 크기의 에너지를 갖는 잔여반향이 생긴다. 잡음에 강인한 기존의 음성 끝점검출 방법이라도, 사용자 음성과 비슷한 수준의 에너지를 갖는 잔여반향은 음성으로 오검출하기 때문에 정확한 음성 끝점검출이 어렵다. 반향 환경에 강인한 끝점검출을 위해, 본 논문에서는 음성/반향 구간 판별에 좋은 성능을 보이는 동시통화검출의 결과를 기존의 음성끝점검출 방법과 AND 연산하여 음성끝점검출기를 구성하였다. 제안하는 방법의 평가를 위해 반향이 큰 환경에서 고립단어 인식을 실험하였고, 다양한 실험환경에서 기존 음성 끝점검출 방법보다 평균 30 % 이상의 인식 성능 향상을 확인할 수 있었다.

The time instants, at which QRS complexes are detected, are used in the electrocardioyam rhythm analysis. Hence, it is necessary that all QRS complexes are detected and that no other waves or artifacts are wrongly labeled as such. These time instants are also used in other tasks as an indication of the location of significant events in the ECG. For example, the QRS typification algorithm uses these points to define the region of interest for complex comparison and alignment. When waveform recognition is drone for each complex, these points are used to define search intervals in which the onset and the end of the QRS nmplex have to be found This paper proposes the method for the detection of QRS complexes and decision rule for the classification scheme. The efficiency of the detection is demonstrated with the aid of an internationally validated CSE(Common Standard for Quantitative Electrocardioyaph) data set 3 and 4.
