In this paper, we present a robust global registration algorithm for multi-frame image mosaics. When we perform a pair-wise registration recovering a projective transformation between two consecutive frames, severe mis-registration among multiple frames, which are not consecutive, can be detected. It is because the concatenation of those pair-wise transformations leads to global alignment errors. To overcome those mis-registrations, we propose a new algorithm using multiple frames for constructing image mosaics. We use a graph to represent the temporal and spatial connectivity and show that global registration can be obtained through the search for an optimal path in the constructed graph. The definition of an adequate objective function characterizing the global registration provides a direct manipulation of the graph. In the presence of moving objects, especially large ones compared with low texture backgrounds, by using the likelihood ratio as the objective function, we can deal with some of the most challenging videos like basketball or soccer Moreover, the algorithm can be parallelized so it can be more efficiently implemented. Finally, we give some experimental results from real videos.

Recently, developments of large scale and high density cell culture methods have been the objects of many researches, because the demand of various pharmaceutical products produced by animal cell culture has been rapidly increasing. The cell culture equipment should have the requirements such as sufficient oxygen transfer and mixing, low shear stress and surface tension, and small foaming. In order to develop a proper bioreactor meeting these requirements simultaneously, a perfluorocarbon having high solubility of oxygen was sprayed into the medium as an oxygen carrier instead of air. Also, a new impeller was developed and combined together with the perfluorocarbon spraying system so as to design a new bioreartor for cell cultivation. The new impeller had better characteristics of mixing and oxygen transfer than the paddle and cell-lift impellers based on the same, shear rate. But, it was observed that the volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient of the new bioreactor decreased with increasing cell density during E. coli fermentation.

Image segmentation is to divide an image into similar parts or objects. This paper presents a segmentation system which consists of a fuzzy neural network and a set of image processing filters. The fuzzy neural network does not need initialization of weights. Therefore it does not have the underutilization problem. This fuzzy neural network controls the size and number of clusters by the vigilance parameter instead of fixing the number of clusters at the initial stage. This fuzzy neural network does not require large amount of memory as in Fuzzy c-Means algorithm. Two satellite images were segmented using the proposed system. The segmented results show that the proposed system is better on segmenting images.

In comparison to normal photography, oblique photography has large coverage area and is easily applicable to objects which are difficult to approach. But it has its deficiency of having to go through complex procedures of rectification. Oblique photographs are first analytically rectified, in this paper, then the coordinates of facilities are analysed.

This paper addresses the development of VP curing equipment for the substitution of autoclave which has several limits in application. This equipment adopt vacuuming and pressurizing processes similarly to the autoclave, but has flexible pressurizing and movable system. The experiments were pursued to determine and to compare specific properties of the specimens produced by three kinds of processes; autoclave, hotpress, and VP. The results show that the VP curing equipment can produce the useful composite material with a little inferior quality to the autoclave, but better than the hotpress. Considering the movability of VP curing equipment, it can be expanded its application to the areas of composite patch-repaired structure in large objects.

3D-based information is needed increasingly as well as 2D Information as cities grow and buildings become large and complex, and use of 3D-models is getting attention to handle such problems. However, there are limitations in using 3D-models because most applications and research efforts using them have been for visual analysis. This study presents a method to find optimal paths in indoor spaces as an illustration for using 3D-models in spatial analysis. We modeled rooms, paths and other facilities in a building as individual 3D objects. We made it possible to find paths based on network structure by integrating the vector-based networks of 2D-GIS and 3D-model.

DNA microarray becomes a major tool for the investigation of global gene expression in all aspects of cancer and biomedical research. DNA microarray experiment generates enormous amounts of data and they are meaningful only in the context of a detailed description of microarrays, biomaterials, and conditions under which they were generated. MicroArray Gene Expression Data (MGED) society has established microarray standard for structured management of these diverse and large amount data. MGED MAGE-OM (MicroArray Gene Expression Object Model) is an object oriented data model, which attempts to define standard objects for gene expression. To assess the relevance of DNA microarray analysis of cancer research it is required to combine clinical and genomics data. MAGE-OM, however, does not have an appropriate structure to describe clinical information of cancer. For systematic integration of gene expression and clinical data, we create a new model, Cancer Genomics Object Model.

Conventional measurement methods for non-destructive testing(NDT) in nuclear power plants other industrial plants have been performed as the methods of contact with objects to be inspect, but those methods have been taken relatively much time to be inspected. Holographic interferometry which is a non-contact optical measurement method using a coherent light can overcome these demerit, and also has an advantage that the quantitative measurement of small deformation for large areas can be accomplished at a time with high precision. In this paper the comparisons of the experimental results from holographic interferometry with those form the finite element method(FEM) and the analytical solutions of elastic equation are discussed.

We propose a novel hierarchical clustering for distribution valued dissimilarities. Analysis of large and complex data has attracted significant interest. Symbolic Data Analysis (SDA) was proposed by Diday in 1980's, which provides a new framework for statistical analysis. In SDA, we analyze an object with internal variation, including an interval, a histogram and a distribution, called a symbolic object. In the study, we focus on a cluster analysis for distribution valued dissimilarities, one of the symbolic objects. A hierarchical clustering has two steps in general: find out step and update step. In the find out step, we find the nearest pair of clusters. We extend it for distribution valued dissimilarities, introducing a measure on their order relations. In the update step, dissimilarities between clusters are redefined by mixture of distributions with a mixing ratio. We show an actual example of the proposed method and a simulation study.

Coordinated motion control of two arms of a dual-arm robot has been studied by many researchers, because of it's potential application in assembly as well as the handling of large and heavy objects beyond the capacity of single arm. This paper derives dynamic equation of a dual-arm robot, and describes some constrains to pick up a simply shaped object at prespecified position on it. This paper concludes with describing both PD and self-tunning control algorithm for the above task.
