  • The latitudinal variation of sunspots appearing during the period from 1874 to 2009 has been studied in terms of centerof-latitude (COL). The butterfly diagram has been used to study the evolution of the magnetic field and the dynamics at the bottom of the solar convection zone. Short-term periodicities have been of particular interest, in that they are somehow related to the structure and dynamics of the solar interior. We thus have focused our investigation on shortterm periodicities. We first calculated COL by averaging the latitude of sunspots with the weight function in area. Then, we analyzed the time series of COL using the wavelet transform technique. We found that a periodicity of ~5 years is the most dominant feature in the time series of COL, with the exception of the ~11 year solar cycle itself. This periodicity can be easily understood by considering small humps between the minima in the area-weighted butterfly diagram. However, we find that periodicities of ~1.3 (0.064), ~1.5 (0.056), or ~1.8 (0.046) years ($\frac{1}{month}$), month ), which have been previously suggested as evidence of links between the changing structure of the sunspot zone and the tachocline rotation rate oscillations, are insignificant and inconsistent. We therefore conclude that the only existing short-term periodicity is of ~5 years, and that periodicities of ~1.3, ~1.5, or ~1.8 years are likely to be artifacts due to random noise of small sunspots.

  • We have carried out all-sky imaging of OH Meinel, $O_2$ atmospheric and OI 557.7 nm airglow layers in the period from July of 2001 through September of 2005 at Mt. Bohyun, Korea ($36.2^{\circ}$ N, $128.9^{\circ}$ E, Alt = 1,124 m). We analyzed the images observed during a total of 153 clear moonless nights and found 97 events of band-type waves. The characteristics of the observed waves (wavelengths, periods, and phase speeds) are consistent with internal gravity waves. The wave occurrence shows an approximately semi-annual variation, with maxima near solstices and minima near equinoxes, which is consistent with other studies of airglow wave observations, but not with those of mesospheric radar/lidar observations. The observed waves tended to propagate westward during fall and winter, and eastward during spring and summer. Our ray tracing study of the observed waves shows that majority of the observed waves seemed to originate from mesospheric altitudes. The preferential directions and the apparent source altitudes can be explained if the observed waves are secondary waves generated from primary waves that have been selected by the filtering process and break up at the mesospheric altitudes.

  • We present six-degree-of-freedom (6DoF) haptic rendering algorithms using translational ($PD_t$) and generalized penetration depth ($PD_g$). Our rendering algorithm can handle any type of object/object haptic interaction using penalty-based response and makes no assumption about the underlying geometry and topology. Moreover, our rendering algorithm can effectively deal with multiple contacts. Our penetration depth algorithms for $PD_t$ and $PD_g$ are based on a contact-space projection technique combined with iterative, local optimization on the contact-space. We circumvent the local minima problem, imposed by the local optimization, using motion coherence present in the haptic simulation. Our experimental results show that our methods can produce high-fidelity force feedback for general polygonal models consisting of tens of thousands of triangles at near-haptic rates, and are successfully integrated into an off-the-shelf 6DoF haptic device. We also discuss the benefits of using different formulations of penetration depth in the context of 6DoF haptics.

  • 소백산 천문대에서 1997년 2월부터 1998년 3월까지 총 3일 밤 동안 VRI 필터를 가지고 AK Her에 대한 CCD 측광관측을 수행하여 얻은 관측점의 수는 V는 236점, R은 198점, I는 197점이다. 관측 기간 동안 주극심과 부극심 시각을 각각 1개씩 관측하였으며, 우리의 관측자료를 가지고 VRI 광도곡선과 (O-C)도를 만들었다. Wilson-Devinney 방법으로 우리의 광도곡선을 분석한 결과 AK Her는 접촉형 (모드 3)의 경우는 해를 구할 수 없었고, 나머지(모드2, 4, 5)에 대해서는 접촉형에 가까운 분리형 또는 반분리형이라고 할 수 있었다. 우리의 최근자료를 가지고 만든 (O-C)도에서 AK Her 공전주기는 Borkovits & Hegedus의 예상과는 다르게 1990년도 이후 증가하는 변화가 나타났다.

  • 접촉 식쌍성 WZ Cep를 CCD 측광관측하여 BVR 광도곡선을 얻고, 5개의 극심 시각을 결정하였다. 새로운 3색의 광도곡선을 Wilson-Devinney 프로그램에 적용하여 측광학적인 해를 구하고, 광도곡선의 장주기 변화를 검증하였다. 우리 광도곡선의 형태는 전형적인 W UMa형의 대칭적인 것으로 나타나는 반면에 Hoffimann(1984)의 광도곡선은 매우 심한 O'Connell 효과를 보이는 비대칭으로 나타난다. WZ Cep의 대칭적인 광도곡선은 Djurasevic et al.(1998)의 광도곡선에서도 확인되었다.

  • 최근 수리형태학적 접근 방법을 이용하여 영상을 분할하고자 하는 연구가 계속되고 있다. 그 중에서도 분수경계 알고리듬은 기존의 에지 기반의 영상 분할 방법과 영역기반의 영상분할 방법의 장점을 모두 가지고 있는 효과적인 영상 분할 기법 중에 하나이다. 분수경계 알고리듬의 기본적인 개념은 지형학적 해석에 기반을 두고 있으며 항상 영역의 외곽에 폐곡선을 형성한다. 그러나 잡영에 매우 민감하게 반응하여 수많은 영역으로 분할되는 과분할 현상을 초래한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 중요하지 많은 국부 최소점과 국부 최대점을 모두 제거함으로써 과분할 현상을 줄이는 제한적 워터폴 알고리듬을 제안한다. 실험결과 제안한 제한적 워터폴 방법이 다른 과분할 억제 방법보다 평균분할 영역수와 외곽선 소실 측면에서 효과적으로 영상을 분할할 수 있었다.

  • It is becoming apparent that stereo matching algorithms need much information from high level cognitive processes. Otherwise, conventional algorithms based on bottom-up control alone are susceptible to local minima. We introduce a system that consists of two levels. A lower level, using a usual matching method, is based upon the local neighborhood and a second level, that can integrate the partial information, is aimed at contextual matching. Conceptually, the introduction of bottom-up and top-down feedback loop to the usual matching algorithm improves the overall performance. For this purpose, we model the image attributes using a Markov random field (MRF) and thereupon derive a maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate. The energy equation, corresponding to the estimate, efficiently represents the natural constraints such as occlusion and the partial informations from the other levels. In addition to recognition, we derive a training method that can determine the system informations from the other levels. In addition to recognition, we derive a training method that can determine the system parameters automatically. As an experiment, we test the algorithms using random dot stereograms (RDS) as well as natural scenes. It is proven that the overall recognition error is drastically reduced by the introduction of contextual matching.

  • For any pattern matching based algorithm in WLAN environment, the characteristics of signal to noise ratio(SNR) to multiple access points(APs) are utilized to establish database in the training phase, and in the estimation phase, the actual two dimensional coordinates of mobile unit(MU) are estimated based on the comparison between the new recorded SNR and fingerprints stored in database. The system that uses the artificial neural network(ANN) falls in a local minima when it learns many nonlinear data, and its classification accuracy ratio becomes low. To make up for this risk, the SVM/ANN hybrid algorithm is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm is the method that ANN learns selectively after clustering the SNR data by SVM, then more improved performance estimation can be obtained than using ANN only and The proposed algorithm can make the higher classification accuracy by decreasing the nonlinearity of the massive data during the training procedure. Experimental results indicate that the proposed SVM/ANN hybrid algorithm generally outperforms ANN algorithm.

  • In this paper, we propose an on-line recognition system of chinese characters using an adaptive resonance theory-1(ART-1) neural network. Strokes, primitive components of chinese characters are usually warped into a cursive form and classifying them is very difficult. To deal with such cursive strokes, we use an ART-1 neural network that has the following advantages: (1) it automatically assembles similar patterns together to form classes in a self-organized manner: (2) it directly accesses the recognition codes corresponding to binary input patterns after self-stabilizing; (3) it doesn't tends to get trapped in local minima, or globally incorrect solutions. A database for character recognition also dynamically constructed with generalized character lists, and a new character can be included simply by adding a new sequence to the list. Character recognition is achieved by traversing the chinese datbase with a sequence of recognized strokes and positional relations between the strokes. To verify the performance of the system. We tested it for 1800 daily-used basic chinese second per character. This results suggest that the proposed system is pertinent to be put into practical use.
