In this paper, a nonlinear matrix inequality problem and a nonlinear optimization problem are proposed for obtaining a structured static output feedback controller. The proposed nonlinear optimization problem has LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality) constraints and a nonlinear objective function. Using the conditional gradient method, the nonlinear optimization problem can be solved. A numerical example shows the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Laser flash technique was applied to measure thermal properties of FGM made by a CVD method. System stability and reproducibility of this measuring system were proved and calibrated with glassy carbon used as reference material. Specimens was prepared by cutting FGM diagonally. Measurements were performed for a wide range of temperatures up to 1500K. Relative heat capacity of the FGM specimen was scattered with in $\pm$13% at room temperature and at high temperature above 1200K, and $\pm$3% at medium temperature range. On the other hand, thermal diffusivity data showed excellent reproducibility and stability through the whole temperature range. In conclusion, the multi-target radiometer can be applied to measure the thermal properties of non homogeneous materials like FGM.

변수의 어떤 값들에 대해 도함수를 가질 수 없는 함수를 최적화해야 하는 등. OR 에서는 여러 상황이 존재한다. 이것은 Convex Analysis〔12〕서 이론적인 differential calculus를 근저로 하는 Non-differentiable Optimization 또는 Non-smooth Optimization 을 취급하는 것이 된다. 이러한 종류의 미분이 가능하지 않은 최적화문제는 연속함수를 위한 종래의 최적화법으로는 그 해법자체가 갖고 있는 연속성의 한계를 극복할 수 없다. 따라서, 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 Demyanov〔4〕가 제시한 quasi-differental function의 정의와 이들 함수에 따른 몇가지 주요정리들을 언급하고, 그것들을 토대로 Non-differentiable optimization problem의 수치적인 방법을 수행하기 위해 일종의 modified gradient 법을 제시한다. 이를 이용해서 numerical experiment를 위한 방법을 구체화하여, unrestricted non-differentable optimization problem에 적응하여, 그 수치해 결과를 보여서 그 타당성음 검토하였다.

In this paper, an efficient predictor for entropy coding is proposed. It adaptively selects one of two prediction errors obtained by MED(median edge detector) or GAP(gradient adaptive prediction). The reduced error is encoded by existing entropy coding method. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can compress higher than existing predictive methods.

중재적 시술을 위한 자기공명영상(MRI)용 주자석은 수직 자계를 가지는 경우가 대부분인데 본 논문에서는 수직 자계를 발생하는 주자석에 장착할 수 있는 볼록형 경사자계코일을 소개하였다. 중재적 시술에 필요한 고속 촬영을 하기 위해서는 강한 경사자계 및 낮은 코일 인덕턱스가 필요한데 본 논문에서는 이를 효율적으로 실현하기 위해 경사자계코일을 볼록 곡면 위에 실현하였다. 기존 방법에서처럼 평면 위에 경사자계코일을 실현하지 않고 볼록 곡면 위에 실현함으로써 경사자계코일의 자계 강도 특성 및 코일 인덕턱스 특성을 향상시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 중재적 시술을 위한 경사자계코일 내 공간을 충분히 확보할 수 있다. Prolate spheroid 좌표계에서 표현되는 경사자계코일 면을 정의하였고, 유한요소법을 이용한 볼록형 경사자계코일 설계 방법을 기술하였다. 또한 경사자계코일 면의 곡률에 따라 경사자계코일의 성능이 어떻게 변화하는지에 대한 결과를 제시하였다.

방사형 그라디언트 페인트(radial gradient paint)는 벡터 그래픽스(vector graphics)에서 적은 정보로 다양한 효과를 적용시킬 수 있는 방법이다. 기본적으로 이 방법은 곱하기, 나누기, 제곱근 등의 복잡한 연산이 필요하기 때문에 모바일 같은 저성능 환경에 적합하지 않았다. 하지만 최근 모바일 기기들은 SIMD 연산 지원 및 고성능의 GPU 탑재 등으로 성능이 향상됨에 따라 이러한 문제를 해결할 수 있게 되었다. 본 논문은 ARM의 SIMD연산인 NEON을 이용하여 최대 2.6배의 성능을 가속시켰으며 GPU의 쉐이더를 이용하여 4.9배의 성능을 가속하였다.

In this paper, a new preprocessing method is proposed to speedup the watershed-based image segmentation In the proposed method, the gradient correction values of ramp edges are calculated from the positions and width of the ramp edges using Laplacian operator, and then, unlike the conventional method in which the monoscale or multi scale gradient image is directly used as a reference iImage, the reference image is obtained by adding the threshold value to each position of the ramp edges in the monoscale gradient image And the marker image is reconstructed on the reference image by erosion By preprocessing the image for the watershed transformation in such a manner, we can reduce the oversegmentations far more than those of applying the conventional morphological filter to the simple monoscale or multiscale gradient-based reference image Thus, we can reduce the total image segmentation time by reducing the time of postprocessing of region merging, which consumes most of the processing time In the watershed-based image segmentation, Experimental results indicate that the proposed method can speedup the total image segmentation about twice than those of the conventional methods, without the loss of ramp edges and principal edges around the dense-edge region.

The central goal of Gamma Knife radiosurgery(GKRS) is to maximize the conformity of the prescription isodose surface, and to minimize the radiation effect of the normal tissue surrounding the target volume. There are the various kinds of indices related with the quality of treatment plans such as conformity index, coverage, selectivity, beam-on time, gradient index(GI), and conformity/gradient index(CGI). As the best treatment plan evaluation tool, we must check by all means conformity index, GI, and CGI among them. Specially, GI and CGI related with complication of healthy normal tissue is more indispensible than conformity index. Then author calculated and statistically analysed CGI, the newly defined conformity/gradient index as well as GI being applied widely using the treatment planning system Leksell GammaPlan(LGP) and the verification method Variable Ellipsoid Modeling Technique(VEMT). In the study 10 patients with intracranial lesion treated by GKRS were included. Author computed the indices from LGP and VEMT requiring only four parameters: the prescribed isodose volume, the volume with dose > 30%, the target volume, and the volume of half the prescription isodose. All data were analyzed by paired t-test, which is statistical method used to compare two different measurement techniques. No statistical significance in GI at 10 cases was observed between LGP and VEMT. Differences in GI ranged from -0.14 to 0.01. The newly defined gradient index calculated by two methods LGP and VEMT was not statistically significant either. Author did not find out the statistical difference for the prescribed isodose volume between LGP and VEMT. CGI as the evaluation index for determining the best treatment plan is not significant statistically also. Differences in CGI ranged from -4 to 3. Similarly newly defined Conformity/Gradient index for GKRS was also estimated as the metric for the evaluation of the treatment plans through statistical analysis. Statistical analyses demonstrated that VEMT was in excellent agreement with LGP when considering GI, new gradient index, CGI, and new CGI for evaluating the best plans of GKRS. Due to the application of the fast and easy evaluation tool through LGP and VEMT author hopes CGI and newly defined CGI as well as gradient indices will be widely used.

Purpose: This study was to investigate that near gradient AC/A ratio could be used to prescribe a patient with distance exophoria, we compared the difference between distance gradient AC/A ratio and near gradient AC/A ratio. Also, this thesis was to understand the relationship between calculated AC/A ratio and gradient AC/A ratio. Methods: Objective and subjective refractive error were corrected and we used Howell (3 m) chart for distance phoria tests and Howell-Kim (40 cm) chart for near phoria tests. The near gradient AC/A ratio and calculated AC/A ratio were used by Howell-Kim (40 cm) combined with +1.00 D, -1.00 D, +2.00 D and -2.00 D. Results: The average value of distance exophoria was 1.17${\pm}$1.17 $\Delta$, and the average value of near exophoria was 3.71${\pm}$2.80 $\Delta$ (t-test. p<0.001). The correlation of distance phoria with near phoria was little higher (r = 0.59, p < 0.001). Gradient AC/A ratios depending on measuring distance and stimulus were higher (r = 0.11~0.53. P < 0.001), when distance was shorter and stimulus to accommodation was more. Also, stimulus to accommodation by plus lens was higher than stimulus to accommodation by minus lens (paired t-test. p < 0.001). There was negative correlation between calculated AC/A ratio and gradient AC/A ratio. As the calculated AC/A ratio was higher, gradient AC/A ratio was lesser. Near gradient AC/A ratio was slightly higher than distance gradient AC/A ratio. Distance and near gradient AC/A ratio taken through the subjective -1.00 D were 1.30 $\Delta$/D and 1.68 $\Delta$/D(t-test. t=1.67, p < 0.001). Conclusions: There is negative correlation between calculated AC/A ratio and gradient AC/A ratio. Also, there is subtle difference between near gradient AC/A ratio and distance gradient AC/A ratio. Therefore, we need to measure distance gradient AC/A ratio when a practitioner prescribe glasses for a patient with distance exophoria.
