Vehicle license plate recognition identifies vehicle as a unique, and have many applications in traffic monitoring field. In this paper, a vertical edge based algorithm to extract license plate within input gray-scale image is proposed. A size-and-shape filter based on seed-filling algorithm is applied to remove the edges that are impossible to be the vertical edges of license plate. Then the remaining edges are matched with each other according to some restricted conditions so as to locate license plate in input image. After license plate is extracted. normalized and segmented, the characters on it are recognized by template matching method. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can deal with license plates in normal shape effectively, as well as the license plates that are out of shape due to the angle of view.

본 논문은 손등의 정맥패턴을 이용한 개인식별을 위해 개발된 3가지의 알고리즘에 관해 각각의 성능을 비교한 결과를 제시한다. 세가지 방법은 각각 Unsharp Masking을 이용한 이치화 후 정맥과 손등 배경의 면적을 이용한 가중치를 적용한 원형정합 알고리즘[1]과 Kolmogorov Smirnov(KS) statistic[2]을 이용한 매칭 알고리즘을 개선한 방식, 그리고 정맥의 세선화 처리 후 분기점의 좌표, 정맥의 길이, 정맥 가지 사이의 분기각도 등의 특징벡터를 이용한 방법 등이다. 본 연구에서는 전처리 과정에 있어서, 원시영상의 혈관부위와 배경부위의 gray scale 분포가 겹친 상태에서 Unsharp Masking 필터링을 적용한 결과가 기타 다른 전처리 방식보다 우수하게 영상을 강화시킬 수 있음을 확인하였고, 가중치를 이용한 매칭방식이 다른 매칭방식보다 우수함을 확인하였다.

We propose a dual in-plane parallel electrode structure of a vertical configuration of a helix-deformed ferroelectric liquid crystal (HDFLC) mode for better brightness than a single in-plain electrode case. This structure provides high brightness in addition to the analog gray scale capability, fast response, and wide-viewing characteristics. In contrast to a conventional HDFLC in a planar geometry, smectic layers arrange themselves parallel to the substrates and thus extremely uniform alignment of molecules in a large area is naturally achieved in our new configuration.

To measure the thickness of liquid films from 10 to 60 ${\mu}m$, we used photochromic dye activation. And we used silicone oil with 10 centi-Stokes and commercial photochromic dyes. To make films with exact and known thicknesses, we used two glass wafers. A film formed between two wafers after placing a drop of liquid of known volume on one wafer and covering the other. The film thickness could be estimated from the diameter of wafer and the dropped liquid volume. To quantitatively evaluate the result, captured the images using digital camera then analyzed the images using the image tool. The gray scale intensity using the captured images of activated dye with these thicknesses showed the repeatability below ${\pm}$ 1.0% when measured with a silicone oil solution containing 0.1% SO and SO-ANTH dyes. And we showed that photochromic dye activation method could be used to measure our liquid film thickness ranges.

In this paper an efficient morphologica algorithm for reducing gaussian and impulse noise in gray-scale image is presented. Based on the edge information the input image is partitioned into a flat region and an edge region, then different algorithms are selectively applied to each region. in case of impulse noise, MGR (morphologica grayscale reconstruction) algorithm with directional SE (structuring element) is applied to the flat region. For theedge region opening-closing (closing-opening) is used instead of dialation (erosion), so that the remaining noise around large objects can be removed. In case of gaussian noise, 5*5 OCCO(opening closing closing opening) and 3*3 DMF(directional morphological filter ) are used for the flat region and the edgeregion, respectively. In order to remove discontinuity at the edge boundary, the algorithm uses 3*3 OCCO around the edge region to reconstruct the final image. Experimetnal results have shown that the proposed algorithm achieves a high performance in terms of noise removal, detail preservation, and NMSE.

The present experimental study is aimed to investigate the flow characteristics of the high-speed flow field within hot-water pump by PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry). As multi-point simultaneous velocity acquisition, 2-D PIV system based upon the two-frame gray-level cross correlation method is adopted using PC frame-grabber and simple video system. Gated image intensifier CCD Camera to cope with illumination problem is arranged for accurate PIV measurement of high-speed complex flow. The velocity vector distribution, velocity profile, and kinetic energy are represented quantitatively at the full-scale region for the deeper understanding of the unsteady flow characteristics in a pump.

본 연구는 시트 커버지로 선호하는 직물의 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 직물디자인의 평가 요소 중 pattern에 초점을 맞추었으며 부수적으로 색상에 대한 선호도 평가를 수행하였다. 직물 pattern 디자인은 PP(Primitive pattern)와 RPU(Repeated pattern unit)의 세부항목에 대한 평가를 통해 전체 직물패턴에 대한 평가가 가능하다. Pattern 특징 평가를 위한 1차 설문에서 소재와 색상의 요인들의 영향을 최소화하기 위해 sample 직물을 gray-scale image로 제시하여 세부항목을 평가하였다. 1차 설문결과로써 pattern 특성을 대표하는 4개의 직물샘플을 선정하였다. 2차 설문에서 4개의 대표 sample을 열차용 시트에 rendering 하여 선호도 평가를 수행하였으며, 색상 선호도 평가는 5가지 색상 군집에 대한 선호를 평가하였다. 선호도 평가 결과 시트 커버지로 선호하는 직물의 특징은 PP의 특징에 상관없이 RPU의 돌출성이 적은 pattern이었다 또한 색상은 초록색과 파랑색을 선호하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 추후 이러한 결과를 통한 시트 커버 직물의 디자인 및 선택이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

In the resent years, the Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display(TFT-LCD) have trend toward larger panel sizes and higher spatial and/or gray-scale resolution. In this trend, Because of its low field effect mobility, a-Si TFT is change to poly-Si TFT. In this paper, both effective-medium model of poly-Si TFTs and empirical capacitance model are applied to Pixel Design Array Simulation Tool (PDAST) and the pixel characteristics of TFT-LCD array were simulated, which were compared with the results calculated by Aim-Spice.

We have studied the viewing angle control using a twist nematic liquid crystal display (TN-LCDs). These TK-LCDs have the characteristics, of which is not good image quality, for examples low Contrast ratio and gray scale inversion problems at upper and down viewing direction. TN-LCDs have the function of switching between the wide viewing mode and narrow viewing angle mode using two tilted LC layers. Tilt angles of the two LC layers, $14^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ were required in both wide viewing angle and narrow viewing angle modes, respectively. Consequently, this device is compatible with two image performances of which the wide viewing angle mode and Narrow viewing angle mode.
