Fixed-point optimization utility software that can aid scaling and wordlength determination of digital signal processign algorithms written in C or C$\^$++/ language is developed. This utility consists of two programs: the range estimator and the fixed-point simulator. The former estimates the ranges of floating-point variables for automatic scaling purpose, and the latter translates floating-point programs into fixed-point equivalents for evaluating te fixed-point performance by simulation. By exploiting the operator overloading characteristics of C$\^$++/ language, the range estimation and the fixed-point simulation can be conducted just by modifying the variable declaration of the original program. This utility is easily applicable to nearly all types of digital signal processing programs including non-linear, time-varying, multi-rate, and multi-dimensional signal processing algorithms. In addition, this software can be used for comparing the fixed-point characteristics of different implementation architectures.

Laser processing workmen should select the working condition for laser cutting of new materials by the preparatory experiments for that material or from the past experiences in cutting of other similar materials. This paper proposes a criterion to determine how much a material is similar to other materials by using the Sugeno fuzzy integral. With the proposed criterion the laser processing workman can objectify the considered material for his decision. The expert system programmer can give the system a high flexibility by experimenting with some materials in a large range of similarity and can support the laser processing workman by offering the similarity between materials.

RFID 미들웨어에서 처리하는 데이터는 스트림 데이터로써 질의색인 기법을 사용하면 효과적이다. 질의색인에서는 RFID 미들웨어의 표준 질의 인터페이스인 ECSpec 이 데이터가 되고, 리더가 태그를 인식하면서 발생하는 태그 이벤트는 질의 색인의 점 칠의가 된다. 질의색인의 데이터인 EXSpec 은 태그 및 리더에 대한 수집 조건과 결과집합의 보고 주기를 포함한다. 이때, 태그 이벤트가 발생할 때마다 점 질의를 즉시 수행하는 것보다 보고 주기까지 지연하고 수집된 질의 집합에서 연속되는 태그 이벤트를 영역 질의로 수행하면 질의 수행 횟수를 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 일정기간 동안의 연속된 태그 이벤트를 영역 연속 질의(a range continuous query)로 처리하기 위한 큐의 구성 방안과 태그 이벤트 집합으로부터 영역질의를 구성하기 위한 자료구조 및 알고리즘을 제안한다.

In this paper, a fractal image coding based on discrete wavelet transform is proposed to improve PSNR at low bit rates and reduce computational complexity of encoding process. The proposed method takes the absolute value of discrete wavelet transform coefficients, and then constructs significant coefficients trees, which indicate the positions and signs of the significant coefficients. This method improves PSNR and reduces computational complexity of mapping contracted domain pool onto range block, by matching only the significant coefficients of range block to coefficients of contracted domain block. Also, this paper proposes a classification scheme which minimizes the number of contracted domain blocks compared with range block. This scheme significantly reduces the number of range and contracted domain block comparison.

Many automated welding equipment are used in the industry. However, there are some problems to get quality welds because of the geometric error, thermal distortion, and incorrect joint fit-up. These factors can make the gap between base plates in case of a thick plate welding. The welding product with the quality welds can not be obtained without consideration of the gap. In this paper, the robot path and welding conditions are modified to get the quality weld by detecting the position and size of the gap. In this work, a low-priced laser range sensor is used. The 3-dimensional information is obtained using the motion of a robot, which holds a laser range sensor. The position and size of the gap is calculated using signal processing of the measured 3-dimensional information of joint profile geometry. The data measured by a laser range sensor is segmented by an iterative end point method. The segmented data is optimized by the least square method. The existence of gap is detected by comparing the data with the segmented shape of template. The effects of robot measuring speed and gap size are also tested. The recognizability fo the gap is verified as good by comparing the real joint profile and the calculated joint profile using the signal processing.

The hot deformation characteristics of pure molybdenum was investigated in the temperature range of $600{\sim}1200^{\circ}C$ and strain rate range of $0.01{\sim}10.0/s$ using a Gleeble test machine. The power dissipation map for hot working was developed on the basis of the Dynamic Materials Model. According to the map, dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurs in the temperature range of $1000{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$ and the strain rate range of $0.01{\sim}10.0/s$, which are the optimum conditions for hot working of this material. The average grain size after DRX is $5{\mu}m$. The material undergoes flow instabilities at temperatures of $900{\sim}1200^{\circ}C$ and the strain rates of $0.01{\sim}10.0/s$, as calculated by the continuum instability criterion.

Camera calibration is an important part of machine vision and close-range photogrammetry. Since current calibration methods fail to obtain ideal internal and external camera parameters with limited computing resources on mobile terminals efficiently, this paper proposes an improved fast camera calibration method for mobile terminals. Based on traditional camera calibration method, the new method introduces two-order radial distortion and tangential distortion models to establish the camera model with nonlinear distortion items. Meanwhile, the nonlinear least square L-M algorithm is used to optimize parameters iteration, the new method can quickly obtain high-precise internal and external camera parameters. The experimental results show that the new method improves the efficiency and precision of camera calibration. Terminals simulation experiment on PC indicates that the time consuming of parameter iteration reduced from 0.220 seconds to 0.063 seconds (0.234 seconds on mobile terminals) and the average reprojection error reduced from 0.25 pixel to 0.15 pixel. Therefore, the new method is an ideal mobile terminals camera calibration method which can expand the application range of 3D reconstruction and close-range photogrammetry technology on mobile terminals.

This work demonstrates the design and evaluation of Aqua-Aware, a lightweight miniaturized light emitting diode (LED) based underwater compact sensor node which is used to obtain different characteristics of the underwater environment. Two optical sensor nodes have been designed, developed, and evaluated for a short and medium link range called as Aqua-Aware short range (AASR) and Aqua-Aware medium range (AAMR), respectively. The hardware and software implementation of proposed sensor node, algorithms, and trade-offs have been discussed in this paper. The underwater environment is emulated by introducing different turbulence effects such as air bubbles, waves and turbidity in a 4-m water tank. In clear water, the Aqua-Aware achieved a data rate of 0.2 Mbps at communication link up to 2-m. The Aqua-Aware was able to achieve 0.2 Mbps in a turbid water of 64 NTU in the presence of moderate water waves and air bubbles within the communication link range of 1.7-m. We have evaluated the luminous intensity, packet success rate and bit error rate performance of the proposed system obtained by varying the various medium characteristics.

The Image sensor of digital still camera has a limited dynamic range. In high dynamic range scenes, a picture often turns out to be underexposed or overexposed. Retinex algorithm based on the theory of the human visual perception is known to be effective contrast enhancement technique. However, it happens the unbalanced contrast enhancement which is the global contrast increased, and the local contrast decreased in the high dynamic range scenes. In this paper, to enhance the both global and local contrast, we propose the weight mapping retinex algorithm. Weight map is composed of the edge and exposure data which are extracted in the each retinex image, and merged with the retinex images in the fusion processing. According to the output picture comparing and numerical analysis, the proposed algorithm gives the better output image with the increased global and local contrast.
