In this paper, we analyzed the navigation error of TERCOM (TErrain COntour Matching), which is TRN (Terrain Referenced Navigation) batch processing, caused by scale factor error of radar altimeter and proved the possibility of false position fix when we use the TERCOM's feature matching algorithm. Based on these, we proposed the new TRN batch processing algorithm using the slope measurements of terrain. The proposed technique measures on periodic changes in the slope of the terrain elevation profile, and these measurements are used in the feature matching algorithm. By using the slope of terrain data, the impact of scale factor errors can be compensated. By simulation, we verified improved outcome using this approach compared to the result using the conventional method.

Quantum RF impedance of SIS (superconductor insulator superconductor) junction has been analyzed by using through on tucker's quantum mixer theory in the frequency range form 80 GHz to 120 GHz. The embedding impedance of waveguide-type mixer mount and its equivalent circuit have been evaluated. From these evaluated results, the impedance matching efficiency between mixer mount embedding impedance and mixer port impedance of upper-side band and IF which were determined by augmented admittance matrix with given backshort position has been discussed in detail. It is found that the mixer with fixed backshort mount ahs a impedance matching efficiency about 80% at each port of mixer within 85GHz to 115GHz, which implys a conversion los of mixer would be good enough to be operated such a wide band frequency range. Therefore, the theoretical evaluated results show that our method can be used ot design the mixer mount without any mechanical tuning elements such a backshort or an E-plane tunners for wide band operation.

본 논문에서는 다양한 조명하에서의 단일 얼굴 영상에 대해 유전자 알고리즘과 형판 정합을 이용하여 빠르게 눈동자를 검출하는 방법을 제안한다. 유전 알고리즘을 이용한 기존의 눈동자 검출 방법은 초기 개체군의 위치에 민감하여 낮은 눈 검출율을 보이며, 도한 그 결과가 일관적이지 않은 문제점을 갖는다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결화기 위해 얼굴영상에서 지역적 최소치를 추출하고 형판과 가장 높은 적합도를 가지는 개체들로 초기 개체군을 생성 하였다. 각각의 개체는 형판의 기하학적 변환 정보로 구성되며, 형판 정합에 의해 눈동자가 검출된다. 실험을 통하여 본 논문에서 제안한 눈 후보 검출을 통하여 단일 영상에서도 눈 검출의 정확도와 높은 검출률을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 비냉각방식 적외선 스테레오 카메라 시스템을 이용하여 고속으로 이동하는 고온의 소형 물체의 3차원 위치를 추정함에 있어서 무작위로 추정되는 그 위치를 확률 모델로 표현하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 확률적 위치 모델은 디지털 영상으로 인한 픽셀위치의 오차(pixel position error)와 비냉각식 적외선 카메라에서 영상을 취득하는 순간의 차이에 의한 지터오차(jitter error)로부터 유도되는데, 두 가지 오차를 결합한 통합 오차확률모델을 수학적으로 제시하고 실험을 통하여 그 효용성을 보여준다. 우선 본 논문에서 고안한 적외선 카메라의 지터 측정기를 이용하여 적외선 카메라에서 발생하는 타이밍 지터를 통계적으로 관찰하여 확률모델을 설정한다. 또한 디지털 영상의 스테레오 정합 과정에서 발생하는 픽셀 오차에 의하여 정확도가 떨어지는 측정거리를 확률모델로 정의한다. 실험 측정 결과, 지터는 가우시안 확률분포로 모델링하는 것이 가능하며, 픽셀오차는 균일 확률분포로 모델링된다. 이 두 가지 확률분포를 갖는 오차는 상호 독립으로서 선형 결합되는데, 전체 오차에 대한 확률분포는 지터오차 변수의 확률분포와 픽셀위치오차 변수의 확률분포를 컨볼루션함으로써 유도된다. 실제 고속 이동체에 대하여 정밀한 3차원 궤적측정기와 자체 구현한 적외선 스테레오 카메라 시스템을 이용하여 제안한 확률모델을 3차원 위치추적 실험에 적용한 결과 95% 신뢰도 구간에서 물체의 위치를 추정하는 것을 확인하였다. 즉, 물체의 위치를 정확하게 측정하는 것은 이론적으로는 불가능하며, 확률모델을 통하여 물체의 위치를 표현하는 것이 타당함을 확인할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 확률모델은 적외선 스테레오 카메라를 이용한 거리측정에서 부정확함을 확률적으로 모델링하여 위치정보에 대한 불확실성을 보정해주며, 특히 적외선 스테레오 카메라를 이용한 고속 물체의 위치추적 및 거리측정에서 이론적, 실험적 토대를 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, we propose predictive motion estimatin algorithm which can predict motion without additional side information considering spatio-tempral correlatio of motion vector. This method performs motion prediction of current block using correlation of the motion vector for two spatially adjacent blocks and a temporally adjacent block. Form predicted motion, the position of searhc area is determined. Then in this searhc area, we estimate motion vector of current block using block matching algoirthm. Considering spatial an temporal correlation of motion vector, the proposed method can predict motion precisely much more. Especially when the motion of objects is rapid, this method can estimate motion more precisely without reducing block size or increasing search area. Futhrmore, the proposed method has computation time the same as conventional block matching algorithm. And as it predicts motion from adjacent blocks, it does not require additional side information for adjacent block. Computer simulation results show that motion estimation of proposed method is more precise than that of conventioanl method.

This paper presents a new algorithm for the self-localization of a mobile robot using one degree perspective Invariant(Cross Ratio). Most of conventional model-based self-localization methods have some problems that data structure building, map updating and matching processes are very complex. Use of a simple cross ratio can be effective to the above problems. The algorithm is based on two basic assumptions that the ground plane is flat and two locally parallel sloe-lines are available. Also it is assumed that an environmental map is available for matching between the scene and the model. To extract an accurate steering angle for a mobile robot, we take advantage of geometric features such as vanishing points. Feature points for cross ratio are extracted robustly using a vanishing point and intersection points between two locally parallel side-lines and vertical lines. Also the local position estimation problem has been treated when feature points exist less than 4points in the viewed scene. The robustness and feasibility of our algorithms have been demonstrated through real world experiments In Indoor environments using an indoor mobile robot, KASIRI-II(KAist Simple Roving Intelligence).

The occurrence of a single bit error in transmission bitstream leads to serious temporal and spatial errors. Because moving picture coding as MPEG-2 based on block coding algorithm uses variable length coding and motion compensation coding algorithm. In this paper, we propose algorithm to conceal occurred error of I-frames in transmission channel using data of the neighboring blocks in decoder. We divide a damaged macroblock of I-frame into four sub blocks and compose new macroblock using the neighboring blocks for each sub block. We estimate the block with minimum difference value through block matching with previous frame for new macroblocks and replace each estimated block with damaged sub block in the same position. Through simulation results, the proposed algorithm will be applied to a characteristic of moving with effect and shows better performance than conventional error concealment algorithms from visual and PSNR of view.

Grey-level statistical models have been widely used in many applications for object location and identification. However, conventional models yield some problems in model refinement when training images are not properly aligned, and have difficulties for real-time recognition of arbitrarily rotated models. This paper presents improved grey-level statistical models that align training images using image or feature matching to overcome problems in model refinement of conventional models, and that enable real-time recognition of arbitrarily rotated objects using efficient hierarchical search methods. Edges or features extracted from a mean training image are used for accurate alignment of models in the search image. On the aligned position and orientation, fitness measure based on grey-level statistical models is computed for object recognition. It is demonstrated in various experiments in PCB inspection that proposed methods are superior to conventional methods in recognition accuracy and speed.

Often an INS has to be aligned in navigation. In these cases it is necessary to obtain some reference information on the state of the aligned INS(Slave) such as its position, its velocity of its angular rate. Usually the reference information is velocity which is supplied by another reference INS. In the alignment state the velocity computed by the reference INS(Master) is compared with that computed by the slave INS and the difference which is indicative of the slave misalignment with respect to the master, is processed by a Kalman filter which estimates misalignment as well as the slave gyro and accelerometer error states. The operation of aligning a slave INS with a master INS comparing quantities computed by both INS is known as transfer alignment. The delivery vehicle performs error these maneuvers enable the TA Kalman filter to separate between the tilt errors and the accelerometer biases which otherwise are unobservable. The basic objective this paper is to study the observability enhancement by ship's maneuvering and matching methods during transfer alignment at sea.
