  • In this paper, we propose lane detection and trackinB algerian using B-Snake as robust algorithm. One of chief virtues of Lane detection algorithm using B-Snake is that it is possible to specify a wider range of lane structure because B-Spline conform an arbitrary shape by control point set and that it doesn't use any camera parameter. Using a robust algorithm called CHVEP, we find the vanishing point, width of lane and mid-line of lane because of the perspective parallel line and then we can detect the both side of lane mark using B-snake. To demonstrate that this algorithm is robust against noise, shadow and illumination variations in road image, we tested this algorithm about various image divided by weather-fine, rainy and cloudy day. The percentage of correct lane detection is over 95$\%$.

  • This paper presents localization algorithm for mobile robot in outdoor environment. Outdoor environment includes the uncertainty on the ground. Magnetic sensor or IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit) has been used to estimate robot's heading angle. Two sensor is unavailable because mobile robot is electric car affected by magnetic field. Heading angle estimation algorithm for mobile robot is implemented using gyro sensor module consisting of 1-axis gyro sensors. Localization algorithm applied Extended Kalman filter that utilized GPS and encoder, gyro sensor module. Experiment results show that proposed localization algorithm improve considerably localization performance of mobile robots.

  • This article reviews the current Public Records Management Act which revised in October 2006 and put in force in April 2007. Since Public Records Management Act has been enacted in 1999, the external development of record management is significant. The Road Map for Record Management Reform in 2005 and the Information Strategy Project in 2006 are prime examples. However, our legal system concerning record management is still posing a number of problems, ranging from issues about objects and definitions of record management to issues of access. These issues have been subject to serious critics from various stakeholders, including civil organizations and academics. The article analyses a legal status of the National Archives of Korea and issues concerning access to current and archival records. As a result of the discussion, the article provides alternative plans.

  • It will be necessary to make proper management plans to preserve the air quality in good level for the public. In order to make these plans, source information and detail emission inventories of the city and near industrial areas should be given. However, lack of the source measurements data makes us more difficult to complete the source inventory. VOC source Inventory could be utilized for the feasibility study to estimate the contribution of VOC sources presenting to the receptor such as residential area. It may give policy maker an idea how to control the air quality, and improve their social environment in the area. This study shows data that measured VOCs concentrations from the local industrial areas in Jeonju during from May 2005 to January 2006. The samples were collected from the near sources in 7 major factories in the industrial park as well as 5 general sources in near city Jeonju area to elucidate the abundances of speciated VOCs and their spacial and temporal distributions depending on source bases. Industrial sources are as follows; chemical, food, paper, wood, metal, non-metal (glass), and painting (coating) industries. The 5 general sources are sampled from tunnel, gasoline gas station, dry cleaning shop, printing (copy) shop, and road pavement working place in urban area. To understand the near source effect at receptor, samples from the 2 receptor sites (one is at center of the industrial complex and the other site is at distance residential area downwind from the center) were collected and analyzed for the comparison to source concentration. The mass contributions of the speciated VOC to total mass of VOCs measured from the different sources and ambient (2 receptors) were presented and discussed.

  • This paper describes an algorithm for detecting vehicles detection in real time. The proposed algorithm has the technique based on computer vision and image processing. In real, complex environment such as one with road traffic, many algorithms have great difficulty such as low detection rate and increasing computational time due to complex backgrounds and rapid changes. To overcome this problem in this paper, the proposed algorithm consists of the following methods. First, to effectively separate the candidate regions, we use vertical and horizontal edge information, and shadow values from input image sequences. Second, we extracts features by using HOG from the selected candidate regions. Finally, this paper uses the OS fuzzy-ELM based on SLFN to classify the extracted features. The experimental results show that the proposed method perform well for detecting vehicles and improves the accuracy and the computational time of detecting.

  • The co-channel interference is a primary factor of loss in multimedia mobile communications. In this paper, we present a performance of the frequency reuse partitioning to refrain the co-channel interference and maximize system performance. First, we analyze the co-channel interference using the frequency reuse partitioning through the statistical modeling. From this results, we decide on the frequency reuse partitioning for the system throughput which is maximized. Finally, analysis and simulation results show that the frequency reuse partitioning based cellular system can mitigate the co-channel interference and maximize the system throughput. The experimental results show that system throughput is maximized from 0.7 to 0.8 according to traffic road. We can maximize the system throughput using the results with cellular system design parameter.

  • Recently, followed by rapid growth of robotics field, multi-linkage mechanism which can even pass by rough road is getting lots of attention. In this paper, I focused on Jansen mechanism. It's a kinematics object which is named after Dutch artist Theo jansen. Jansen mechanism embraces structure and mechanism which creates locomotion with the combination of the power and simple structure. Theo jansen suggests a 'Holy number'. It's an ideal ratio of leg components length. However, if there's desired gait locomotion, you have to adjust the ratio and the length. But even slight change of the length could cause a big change at the end-point. To solve this problem, I suggest a reverse engineering method to get a ratio of each links by nonlinear optimization with pre-set desired trajectory. First, we converted a movement of the joint of Jansen mechanism to vectors by kinematics analysis of multi-linkage structure. And we showed the trajectory at the end-point. After that, we set desired trajectory which we found most ideal. Then we got the length of the leg components which draws a trajectory as same as trajectory we set, using Multi-objective genetic algorithm toolbox in MATLAB. Result is verified by Edison designer and mSketch. And we analyzed if it could pass through the obstruction which is set dynamically.

  • The importance of urban and regional natural park increases because of the needs for preserving the natural resources and providing with natural recreation space in nature. This planning of natural park management should be established based on the research of the various natural resources in the park. But for the lack of effective data synthesizing methods and concepts, only some restricted factors for zoning plan are considered even though GIS computer system for large complex simulation is used. Therefore, in this study three ecological zoning models such as Basic Factor Model (BFM), Visual Landscape Model (VLM) and Comprehensive Ecological Model (CEM) are proposed and applied to Byounsan Peninsula Nature Park(BPNP) for comparison with the current natural park zoning. The BFM has three components -elevation, slope and vegetation. The VLM has applied with six components -elevation, slope, vegetation, road type, and the visual distance. Finally the CEM's modelling factors have included all of BFM, VLM components are added with the land use type, nature and historic resource factors. The zoning concept of BPNP was based on "Minimization" focused on the specific factors. But introduced modelling concept is "Optimization" based on the total ecological environment. So the result of the modelling has larger area for preservation and development zoning compared with the current zoning whose characteristics are ambiguous which allows the environmental destruction. The future study issues will be the determination of the weighting factor, component reconsideration based on the ground truth data and the agriculture residential area zoning.

  • Recently, due to various environmental problems such as global warming, increasing of international oil prices and exhaustion of resource, a paradigm of world automobile market is rapidly changing from vehicles using internal combustion engine to eco-friendly vehicles using electric power such as EV (Electric Vehicle), HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicle), PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid electric Vehicle) and FCEV (Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle). There are many driving cycles for performance evaluation of conventional vehicles. However there is a lack of researches on driving cycle for EV. This study is composed of part 1 and part 2. In this paper part 1, in order to develop urban driving cycle for performance evaluation of electric vehicles, Gwacheon-city patrol route of police patrol car was selected. Actual driving test was performed using EV. The driving data such as velocity, time, GPS information etc. were recorded. GUDC-EV (Gwacheon-city Urban Driving Cycle for Electric Vehicles) including road gradient was developed through the results of analyzing recorded data. Reliability of the driving cycle development method was substantiated through comparison of electricity performance. In the second part of this study, the developed driving cycle was compared to simulation result of the existing urban driving cycle. Verification of the developed driving cycle for EV performance evaluation was described.
