Due to the different camera properties of the multi-view camera system, the color properties of captured images can be inconsistent. This inconsistency makes post-processing such as depth estimation, view synthesis and compression difficult. In this paper, the method to correct the different color properties of multi-view images is proposed. We utilize a gray gradient bar on a display device to extract the color sensitivity property of the camera and calculate a look-up table based on the sensitivity property. The colors in the target image are converted by mapping technique referring to the look-up table. Proposed algorithm shows the good subjective results and reduces the mean absolute error among the color values of multi-view images by 72% on average in experimental results.

Global localization is one of the essential issues for mobile robot navigation. In this study, an indoor global localization method is proposed which uses a Kinect sensor and a monocular upward-looking camera. The proposed method generates an environment map which consists of a grid map, a ceiling feature map from the upward-looking camera, and a spatial feature map obtained from the Kinect sensor. The method selects robot pose candidates using the spatial feature map and updates sample poses by particle filter based on the grid map. Localization success is determined by calculating the matching error from the ceiling feature map. In various experiments, the proposed method achieved a position accuracy of 0.12m and a position update speed of 10.4s, which is robust enough for real-world applications.

It is very important to inspect color of printed texture in the textile process. To distinguish the color of the printed texture, RGB color values obtained from a scanner must be transformed to the standard colorimetric system used in the textile industry. It is XYZ color system that is defined by CIE(Commission Internationale do 1Eclairage). The mapping from RGB to XYZ color values is not simple and the scanner has even a positional deviation of RGB colors. In this paper an automatic color inspection method using a general scanning machine is presented. We used a U(neural network) model to map RGB to XYZ and compensate the positional error. In the real experiments, this inspection system shows to get very exact XYZ values from the traditional scanner regardless of the measuring position.

Many kinds of map projection have been used, since this cannot be done without a distortion and seemless representation of the globe. To overcome the continues representation of large digital terrain information by the global coordinate system , to find out the sources of projection error and optimizing method, and to increase the map accuracy, specific map projection researches are needed. In this study, improvements of map projections are suggested for small scale mapping which covering entire Korean peninsula based on theoretical evaluation and limits of current map projection. Furthermore, distortion factors, positional errors, and accuracy increasing method are evaluated.

소축척 수치지도 및 지형도 제작을 위한 자동화 처리 과정에서는 기하학적 및 논리적인 오류가 발생하고 있고, 기하학적 오류는 많은 부분에서 자동화 처리가 가능하나 논리적 오류는 논리적으로 자동 판단이 곤란한 경우가 많기 때문에 대부분 수작업으로 이루어 지고 있는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 논리적 오류문제를 해결하기 위하여 폴리곤 겹침에 대해서 도로와 건물 폴리곤간의 겹침위치를 탐색하고, 이를 처리하기 위해 유전자알고리즘을 이용하여 프로그램을 개발하였다. 그 결과 지도제작 과정에서의 논리적 오류에 대한 자동화가 가능하도록 하였고, 그로 인한 지도제작 오류를 최소화할 수 있었다.

A method to produce a desired current pattern in a multiple-source EIT system using voltage sources is presented. Application of current patterns to a body is known to be superior to the application of voltage patterns in terms of high spatial frequency noise suppression, resulting in high accuracy in conductivity and permittivity images. Since current sources are difficult and expensive to build, the use of voltage sources to apply the current pattern is desirable. An iterative algorithm presented in this paper generates the necessary voltage pattern that will produce the desired current pattern. The convergence of the algorithm is shown under the condition that the estimation error of the linear mapping matrix from voltage to current is small. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the convergence of the output current.

In GMA welding processes, bead contour and penetration patterns are criterion to estimate weld quality. Bead geometry is commonly defined with width, height and depth. When weaving is taken into account, selection of welding conditions is known to be difficult. Thus, empirical or trial-and-error method are usually introduced. This study examined the correlation of welding process variables including weaving parameters with bead geometry using srtificial neural networks(ANN). The main task of the Ann estimator is to realize the mapping characteristics from the sampled welding process variables to the actual bead geometry through training. After the neural network model is constructed, welding process variables for desired bead geometry is selected by inverse model. Experimental varification of the inverse model is conducted through actual welding.

In this paper, it is called nonlinear-symbol CPFSK(NCPFSK) which is modulated by the nonlinear function of information carrying phase function within all symbol interval produce time invariant trellis structure. In general, the bit error probability performance of CPFSK modultion scheme within given signal constellation is determined from the number of memory elementsof continuous phase encoder, i.e. number of state. In this paper the number of state of analyticall designed NCPFSK is time invariant. And the nonlinear symbol mapping function of the proposed moudlation produces the nonlinear symbol andthe phase state of the modulation for updating the phase function of NCPFSK.

In this paper, we present a new inter-carrier interference (ICI) self-cancellation scheme - namely, ISC scheme - for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing systems to reduce the ICI generated from phase noise (PHN) and residual frequency offset (RFO). The proposed scheme comprises a new ICI cancellation mapping (ICM) scheme at the transmitter and an appropriate method of combining the received signals at the receiver. In the proposed scheme, the transmitted signal is transformed into a real signal through the new ICM using the real property of the transmitted signal; the fast-varying PHN and RFO are estimated and compensated. Therefore, the ICI caused by fast-varying PHN and RFO is significantly suppressed. We also derive the carrier-to-interference power ratio (CIR) of the proposed scheme by using the symmetric conjugate property of the ICI weighting function and then compare it with those of conventional schemes. Through simulation results, we show that the proposed ISC scheme has a higher CIR and better bit error rate performance than the conventional schemes.

The p-version of the finite element method is a new approach to finite element analysis in which the partition of the domain is held fixed while the degree p of approximating piecewise polynomials is increased. In this paper, the focus is on computer implementation of a new hierarchic p-convergence shell model based on blend mapping functions. Its rigid-body modes, round-off error, and convergence characteristics are investigated.
