SLSV (single loop single vector) method is to solve the excessive computational cost problem in RBDO (reliability-based design optimization) by decoupling the nested iteration loops. However, the practical use of SLSV method to RBDO case is limited by the instability or inaccuracy of the method since it often diverges or converges to a wrong solution. Thus, in this paper, a new modified SLSV method is proposed. This method improves its convergence capability effectively by utilizing Inactive Design and Active MPP Design together with modified HMV (hybrid mean value) method. The usefulness of the proposed method is also verified through numerical examples.

Unsupervised spectral angle classification (USAC) is the algorithm that can extract ground object information with the minimum 'Spectral Angle' operation on behalf of 'Spectral Euclidian Distance' in the clustering process. In this study, our algorithm uses the unit vector instead of the spectral distance to compute the mean of cluster in the unsupervised classification. The proposed algorithm (MUSAC) is applied to the Hyperion and ETM+ data and the results are compared with K-Meails and former USAC algorithm (FUSAC). USAC is capable of clearly classifying water and dark forest area and produces more accurate results than K-Means. Atmospheric correction for more accurate results was adapted on the Hyperion data (Hyperion-FLAASH) but the results did not have any effect on the accuracy. Thus we anticipate that the 'Spectral Angle' can be one of the most accurate classifiers of not only multispectral images but also hyperspectral images. Furthermore the cluster unit vector can be an efficient technique for determination of each cluster mean in the USAC.

Satellite operating agencies are constantly monitoring conjunctions between satellites and space objects. Two line element (TLE) data, published by the Joint Space Operations Center of the United States Strategic Command, are available as raw data for a preliminary analysis of initial conjunction with a space object without any orbital information. However, there exist several sorts of uncertainties in the TLE data. In this paper, we suggest and analyze a method for estimating the uncertainties in the TLE data through mean, standard deviation of state vector residuals and covariance matrix. Also the estimation results are compared with actual results of orbit determination to validate the estimation method. Characteristics of the state vector residuals depending on the orbital elements are examined by applying the analysis to several satellites in various orbits. Main source of difference between the covariance matrices are also analyzed by comparing the matrices. Particularly, for the Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-2, we examine the characteristics of the residual variation of state vector and covariance matrix depending on the orbital elements. It is confirmed that a realistic consideration on the space situation of space objects is possible using information from the analysis of mean, standard deviation of the state vector residuals of TLE and covariance matrix.

The purposes of this paper are to present a selection method of neighboring pixels whose local statistics are similar to the center pixel and combine the selection result with mean curvature diffusion filter to reduce noises in remote sensed imagery. The order of selection of neighboring pixels is critical, especially for finding a pixel belonging to the homogeneous region, since the statistics of the homogeneous region vary according to the selection order. An effective strategy for selecting neighboring pixels, which uses rank-order differences vector obtained by computing the intensity differences between the center pixel and neighboring pixels and arranging them in ascending order, is proposed in this paper. By using region growing method, we divide the elements of the rank-ordered differences vector into two groups, homogeneous rank-ordered differences vector and outlier rank-ordered differences vector. The mean curvature diffusion filter is combined with a line process, which chooses selectively diffusion coefficient of the neighboring pixels belonging into homogeneous rank-ordered differences vector. Experimental results using an aerial image and a TerraSAR-X satellite image showed that the proposed method reduced more efficiently noises than some conventional adaptive filters using all neighboring pixels in updating the center pixel.

SVDD의 scale prob1em을 해결하기 위하여, 학습 데이터를 sub-groupings하여 group 단위로 SVDD를 통해 학습함으로써 학습 시간을 줄이는, K-means clustering을 이용한 SVDD 방범(KMSVDD)이 제안되었다. 하지만 KMSVDD는 K-means clustering 알고리즘의 본질상 최적의 K값을 정하기 힘들다는 문제와, 동일한 데이터를 학습할지라도 clustered group이 램덤하게 형성되기 때문에 매번 학습의 결과가 달라지는 문제점이 있었다. 또한 데이터의 분포 상태와 관계없이 무조건 타원(dlliptic) 형태의 K개의 cluster로 나누기 때문에 각각의 나눠진 cluster들은 데이터 분포에 대한 특징을 나타내기 힘들게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 데이터 분포에서 mode를 먼저 찾은 후 이 mode를 기준으로 clustering하는 Mean Shift clustering 방법을 이용한 SVDD를 제안하고자 한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 KMSVDD와 비교해 데이터 학습 속도에서는 큰 차이가 없으면서도 데이터의 분포 상태를 고려한 형태로 clustering 한 sub-group을 학습하므로 학습의 정확도가 일정하게 되며, 각각의 cluster는 데이터 분표의 특징을 포함하는 효과가 있다. 또한 Mean Shift Kernel의 bandwidth의 결정은 K-Means의 K와는 달리 어느 정도 여유를 갖고 결정되어도 학습 결과에는 차이가 없다. 다양한 데이터들을 이용한 모의실험을 통하여 위의 내용들을 검증하도록 한다.

This paper develops a decomposition method for stochastic programming with a block diagonal structure. Here we assume that the right-hand side random vector of each subproblem is differente each other. We first, transform this problem into a master problem, and subproblems in a similar way to Dantizig-Wolfe's Decomposition Princeple, and then solve this master problem by solving subproblems. When we solve a subproblem, we first transform this subproblem to a Deterministic Equivalent Programming (DEF). The form of DEF depends on the type of the random vector of the subproblem. We found the subproblem with finite discrete random vector can be transformed into alinear programming, that with continuous random vector into a convex quadratic programming, and that with random vector of unknown distribution and known mean and variance into a convex nonlinear programming, but the master problem is always a linear programming.

this paper suggest a new space vector PWM modulation method with short processing time which does not need idenfication of nearest three vectors(NTV) and duty calculation for each vector. The suggested PWM method makes mean value of phase voltage to be same as reference during every modulation period by use of a triangle in small hexagon on multi-level vector space. This paper described the suggested modulation method can be successfully applied to the space vector modulation use of multi-level inverter by computer simulations and experiments.

In this paper, a new pixel decimation algorithm for the estimation of motion vector is proposed. In traditional methods, the computational cost can be reduced since only part of the pixels are used for motion vector calculation. But these methods limits the accuracy ofmotion vector because of the same reason. We derive a selection criteria of subsampled pixels that can reduce the probablity of false motion vector detection based on stochastic point of view. By using this criteria, a new pixel decimation algorithm that can reduce the prediction error with similar computational cost is presented. The simulation results applied to standard images haveshown that the proposed algorithm has less mean absolute prediction error than conventional pixel decimation algorithm.

Recently, there has been an increasing demand of high data rates services, where several multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) techniques were introduced to meet these demands. Among these techniques, vector perturbation combined with linear precoding techniques, such as zero-forcing and minimum mean-square error, have been proven to be efficient in reducing the transmit power and hence, perform close to the optimum algorithm. In this paper, we review several fixed-complexity vector perturbation techniques and investigate their performance under both perfect and imperfect channel knowledge at the transmitter. Also, we investigate the combination of block diagonalization with vector perturbation outline its merits.

The local wind systems in the Pohang region were categorized into wind sectors. Still, thorough knowledge of wind resource assessment, wind environment analysis, and atmospheric environmental impact assessment was required since the region has outstanding wind resources, it is located on the path of typhoon, and it has large-scale atmospheric pollution sources. To overcome the resolution limitation of meteorological dataset and problems of categorization criteria of the preceding studies, the high-resolution wind resource map of the Korea Institute of Energy Research was used as time-series meteorological data; the 2-step method of determining the clustering coefficient through hierarchical clustering analysis and subsequently categorizing the wind sectors through non-hierarchical K-means clustering analysis was adopted. The similarity of normalized time-series wind vector was proposed as the Euclidean distance. The meteor-statistical characteristics of the mean vector wind distribution and meteorological variables of each wind sector were compared. The comparison confirmed significant differences among wind sectors according to the terrain elevation, mean wind speed, Weibull shape parameter, etc.
