  • Although 3D-complex fractionated atrial electrogram (CFAE) mapping is useful in radiofrequency catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), the directions and configuration of the bipolar electrodes may affect the electrogram. This study aimed to compare the spatial reproducibility of CFAE by changing the catheter orientations and electrode distance in an in -silico left atrium (LA). We conducted this study by importing the heart CT image of a patient with AF into a 3D-homogeneous human LA model. Electrogram morphology, CFAE-cycle lengths (CLs) were compared for 16 different orientations of a virtual bipolar conventional catheter (conv-cath: size 3.5 mm, inter-electrode distance 4.75 mm). Additionally, the spatial correlations of CFAE-CLs and the percentage of consistent sites with CFAE-CL<120 ms were analyzed. The results from the conv-cath were compared with that obtained using a mini catheter (mini-cath: size 1 mm, inter-electrode distance 2.5 mm). Depending on the catheter orientation, the electrogram morphology and CFAE-CLs varied (conv-cath: $11.5{\pm}0.7%$ variation, mini-cath: $7.1{\pm}1.2%$ variation), however the mini-cath produced less variation of CFAE-CL than conv-cath (p<0.001). There were moderate spatial correlations among CFAE-CL measured at 16 orientations (conv-cath: $r=0.3055{\pm}0.2194$ vs. mini-cath: $0.6074{\pm}0.0733$, p<0.001). Additionally, the ratio of consistent CFAE sites was higher for mini catheter than conventional one ($38.3{\pm}4.6%$ vs. $22.3{\pm}1.4%$, p<0.05). Electrograms and CFAE distribution are affected by catheter orientation and electrode configuration in the in-silico LA model. However, there was moderate spatial consistency of CFAE areas, and narrowly spaced bipolar catheters were less influenced by catheter direction than conventional catheters.

  • 간판은 보행자의 안전과 도심의 재난 예방을 위해 국가법령에 따라 간판의 규격이 정해져 있다. 간판은 규격에 따라 설치되어야 하지만 오랜 기간 동안 설치되어온 다수의 간판과 빈번하게 변화하는 점포로 인해 간판을 체계적으로 관리하기가 수월하지 않다. 이에 본 연구에서는 규격에 어긋나는 간판을 판별하는 방법론을 제안하였다. 이를 위해, 스테레오 카메라를 이용하여 간판을 촬영한 후 영상에서 간판의 3차원 좌표를 결정하여 간판의 가로와 세로 크기를 계산하여 간판의 규격을 판별하였다. 스테레오 카메라의 내부표정요소와 상호표정요소를 결정하기 위해서 실외의 3차원 건물을 검정장으로 사용하였다. 그리고 나서 약 15m ~ 22m 거리에서 촬영한 간판 영상에서 딥러닝을 이용하여 간판의 네 꼭지점에 대한 영상좌표를 추출하였다. 스테레오 카메라의 내부표정요소와 상호표정요소 그리고 간판의 네 꼭지점에 대한 영상좌표를 이용하여 간판의 3차원 좌표를 결정한 후 간판의 가로 및 세로 크기를 계산한 결과 평균적으로 약 2.7cm의 오차가 있었다. 10개의 판류형 간판에 대한 규격을 살펴본 결과 가로 크기는 모두 규격을 준수하였으나, 세로 크기는 평균적으로 약 36.5cm를 초과하였다. 이를 통해 판류형 간판의 정비가 필요한 것을 알 수 있었다.

  • 인간이 인지하는 디스플레이 화질은 디스플레이 및 시각계의 시간적·공간적 특성에 의해 결정되어진다고 한다. 이때, 시각계의 공간 특성은 공간적 콘트라스트 감도 함수(Spatial Contrast Sensitivity Function, 공간적 CSF, 이하 CSF로 표기)로 나타낼 수 있다. 일반적으로 디스플레이를 이용한 휘도 격자의 CSF는 휘도 및 시청 거리(디스플레이와 피험자간 거리)에 의한 영향을 받는다. 본 논문의 목적은 이러한 CSF의 기본 특성에 대해 검토하고, 향후 이를 디스플레이의 화질평가 척도에 이용하는 것에 있다.

  • A simple method for real-time monitoring the molecular orientation in a polymeric film was suggested. This method was examined in the polarization holograms by two recording beams on a poly(malonic ester) containing disperse red 1. The spatial distributions of the photo-induced alignment were measured and analyzed at various polarization states of two recording beams. As the result, the directions of molecular alignments could be identified easily by our method.

  • LBP기반 특징점 기술자를 이용한 얼굴검출은 얼굴의 형태정보 및 눈, 코, 입과 같은 얼굴 요소들 간 공간정보를 표현할 수 없는 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 선행 연구들은 얼굴 영상을 다수개의 사각형 부분영역들로 분할하였다. 하지만, 연구마다 서로 다른 개수와 크기로 부분 영역을 분할하였기 때문에 실험에 사용하는 데이터베이스에 적합한 부분 영역의 분할 기준이 모호하며, 부분 영역의 수에 비례하여 LBP 히스토그램 차원이 증가되고, 부분 영역의 개수가 증가함에 따라 얼굴의 방향 회전에 대한 민감도가 크게 증가한다. 본 논문은 LBP기반 특징점 기술자의 방향 회전 문제와 특징점 차원의 수 문제를 해결할 수 있는 새로운 부분 영역 분할 방법을 제안한다. 실험 결과, 제안하는 방법은 방향 회전된 단일 얼굴 영상에서 99.0278%의 검출 정확도를 보였다.

  • In the mid 90's, the U.S. government released images acquired by the first generation of photo reconnaissance satellite missions between 1960 and 1972. The Declassified Intelligent Satellite Photographs (DISP) from the Corona mission are of high quality with an astounding ground resolution of about 2 m. The KH-4A panoramic camera system employed a scan angle of $70^{\circ}$ that produces film strips with a dimension of $55\;mm\;{\times}\;757\;mm$. Since GPS/INS did not exist at the time of data acquisition, the exterior orientation must be established in the traditional way by using control information and the interior orientation of the camera. Detailed information about the camera is not available, however. For reconstructing points in object space from DISP imagery to an accuracy that is comparable to high resolution (a few meters), a precise camera model is essential. This paper is concerned with the derivation of a rigorous mathematical model for the KH-4A/B panoramic camera. The proposed model is compared with generic sensor models, such as affine transformation and rational functions. The paper concludes with experimental results concerning the precision of reconstructed points in object space. The rigorous mathematical panoramic camera model for the KH-4A camera system is based on extended collinearity equations assuming that the satellite trajectory during one scan is smooth and the attitude remains unchanged. As a result, the collinearity equations express the perspective center as a function of the scan time. With the known satellite velocity this will translate into a shift along-track. Therefore, the exterior orientation contains seven parameters to be estimated. The reconstruction of object points can now be performed with the exterior orientation parameters, either by intersecting bundle rays with a known surface or by using the stereoscopic KH-4A arrangement with fore and aft cameras mounted an angle of $30^{\circ}$.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of applying the planning characteristics of Neowa houses to contemporary residential structures. Contrary to the popular assumption that traditional Korean houses have decentralized plans, local building traditions observed in Neowa houses show that the diversity among hanoks allows the incorporation of traditional spatial organization into the contemporary residences. By analyzing the spatial organization of Neowa houses, three advantageous planning characteristics were found. First, the presence of indoor wooden floors (maru or daechung) as well as outdoor wooden floors in Neowa houses is practical for Korea's weather marked by humid summers and icy winters. Secondly, the internal orientation of space in Neowa houses is more appropriate in the contemporary context of a highly urbanized society emphasizing family privacy. Thirdly, the flexibility and interchangeability of interior elements can be applied to improve efficiency. By applying the aforementioned characteristics, this study suggests ways to adopt traditional features to improve contemporary residences.

  • The relationship between innovation policies and locational competitiveness has emerged as an important area in the analysis of economic development, reflecting both the centralisation and decentralisation of globalising economic activities. The underlying spatial and institutional components are subject to a pattern of cumulative causation in which strategic interventions of policy actors exercise a decisive role in shaping competitive advantages, while promoting interactions with local and foreign partners both from the private and public sectors. The Singaporean development experience illustrated these strategic interdependencies of innovation policies and locational competitiveness. Based on her role as a manufacturing and service hub, Singapore is viewed as an infrastructural nodal point which is interconnected to global production networks. Paralleling efforts in the domain of technological innovation, Singapore's policies for locational competitiveness aim at an adaptive harmonisation of the needs of international investors with local developmental objectives. This orientation characterises also current efforts in promoting Singapore as a knowledge agglomeration with a distinct science base, expanding R&D operations and an innovation-driven pattern of economic development. In conclusion, the locational rationale of Singapore's innovation policies provides lessons for dealing with the spatial and institutional implications of technological globalisation.

  • Large-scaled apartment housing complex at outskirts of downtown which has direct influence on urban view concentrated on improving the space outside the complex like spatial composition of individual plan design, but neglected the contribution of urban view. However, as people's orientation toward urban areas was changed to quality from quantity, concerns on urban view have been gradually increased and planning of apartment housing has been extended to complex with view contributing to urban people as a factor composing the city in resident centered spatial composition. This study is therefore to examine the characteristics of view components of 13 apartment housing complexes at Sangmu District in Gwangju Metropolitan City and their influences on evaluating view image.
