This paper presents a new method for building detection and reconstruction from aerial images. In our approach, we extract useful building location information from the generated disparity map to segment the interested objects and consequently reduce unnecessary line segments extracted in the low level feature extraction step. Hypothesis selection is carried out by using an undirected graph, in which close cycles represent complete rooftops hypotheses. We test the proposed method with the synthetic images generated from Avenches dataset of Ascona aerial images. The experiment result shows that the extracted 3D line segments of the reconstructed buildings have an average error of 1.69m and our method can be efficiently used for the task of building detection and reconstruction from aerial images.

Phytochemicals have been considered as alternatives for synthetic fungicides because of their biodegradability and low toxicity. In this study, we found that the methanolic extract of Corydalis ternata suppressed the development of plant diseases caused by Puccinia triticina and Colletotrichum coccodes. As the antifungal substance, three isoquinoline alkaloids (dehydrocorydaline, stylopine, and corydaline) were isolated from C. ternata. These active compounds also exhibited in vivo antifungal activity against P. triticina and C. coccodes. Taken together, our results suggest that C. ternata and its active compounds can be used to control plant diseases.

The M&S community needs an environmental data representation and interchange mechanism which not only satisfies the requirements of today's systems, but can be extended to meet future data sharing needs. This mechanism must allow for the standard representation of, and access to data. It must support databases containing integrated terrain, ocean, atmosphere, and space data. The SEDRIS provides environment data users and producers with a clearly defined interchange specification. In this paper I present the method to extract the data attributes contained in synthetic environment domain using SEDRIS technology and API.

This paper presents a new method for building detection and reconstruction from aerial images. In our approach, we extract the useful building location information from the generated disparity map to obtain the segmentation of interested objects and thus reduce significantly unnecessary line segment extracted in low level feature extraction step. Hypothesis selection is carried out by using undirected graph in which close cycles represent complete rooftops hypotheses, and hypothesis are finally tested to contruct building model. We test the proposed method with synthetic images generated from Avenches dataset of Ascona aerial images. The experiment result shows that the extracted 3D line segments of the buildings can be efficiently used for the task of building detection and reconstruction from aerial images.

This paper treats the DIS (Digital Image Stabilization) problem subject to base motions such as translation, rotation and zoom. For the local motion estimation from a raw image, the Harris corner detection algorithm is exploited to extract feature points, and comparing those of consecutive images, the zoom ratio (scale factor) is computed. For the global motion estimation, an equivalent model is derived to account for a 3-dimensional composite motion from which the center point and Euler angle can be determined. Finally, the motion compensation follows. To show the effectiveness of the present DIS scheme, experimental results for synthetic images are illustrated.

This study confirmed that white rot fungus Irpex lacteus was able to metabolize 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) with two different initial transformations. In one metabolic pathway of TNT a nitro group was removed from the aromatic ring of TNT. Hydride-Meisenheimer complexes of TNT (H/sup -/-TNT), colored dark redo were confirmed as the intermediate in this transformation by comparison with the synthetic compounds. 2,4-Dinitrotoluene as a following metabolic product was detected, and nitrite produced by denitration of $H^-$-TNT supported this transformation. In the other TNT pathway, nitro groups in TNT were successively reduced to amino groups via hydroxylamines. Hydroxylamino-dinitrotoluenes and amino-dinitrotoluenes were identified as the intermediates. The activity of a membrane-associated aromatic nitroreductase was detected in the cell-free extract of I. lacteus. This enzyme catalyzed the nitro group reduction of TNT with NADPH as a cofactor, Enzyme activity was not observed in the presence of molecular oxygen.

This paper describes a new algorithm for the extraction of target-like objects. In order to extract target-like objects, a given image is transformed into two-valued image by thresholding, and then a double gate is applied to the two-valued image. With the synthetic-image data, we have shown the good performance of the new algorithm.

인공위성영상을 이용한 해양정보 추출을 위하여 SAR 위성영상을 이용한 해수유통 정보 추출을 연구하였다. SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) 위성영상의 도플러 쉬프트 정보를 이용한 해수유동 정보 추출은 적용기술의 근본적 한계로 인하여 실제 유속이 아니라 위성궤도의 법선방향에 대한 유속강도만을 제시하는 문제가 있다. 이러한 한계 및 문제점을 극복하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 위성영상 촬영과 통일한 시간에 동일한 해역에서 해수유통을 관측하고, 관측된 해수유통 정보를 이용하여 위성영상에서 추출된 해수유동 정보를 보완 검증 하였다. 위성영상 추출 해수유통정보의 위성궤도 법선방향 유속강도는 관측된 해수유통 유향분포도에 근거하여 실제 해수유동 유향에 맞게 보정될 수 있었으며, 보정된 해수유통 정보는 실제 해수유동 분포를 잘 반영할 수 있었다.

The cultured mycelia of Ganoderma lucidum were extracted and the extract was separated into six fractions by organic solvent fractionation. The antihepatotoxic activity of all the fractions was evaluated by measuring activities of glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) and glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT). Among the fractions tested, the high-polarity fractions such as aqueous and n-butanol fractions significantly reduced activities of GPT and GOT in CCl4- and galactosamine-intoxicated rat primary hepatocytes. When intracellular synthetic activities were measured by pulsing the rate primary cultured hepatocytes with [3H]-uridine and [3H]-leucine, activities of DNA, RNA and protein. When direct toxicities of the fractions were measured against human hepatoma(SK-Hep-1), the non-polarity fractions such as n-butanol and ethyl acetate fractions showed potent direct cytotoxicities even at the concentration of 1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml. These data showed that Ganoderma lucidum has hepatoprotective and hepatotoxic recovery principles in its mycelia.

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a technique used in science and industry to evaluate the properties of a material without causing damage. In this paper we propose a method for segmenting radiographic images of welding in order to extract the welding defects which may occur during the welding process. We study different methods of level set and choose the model adapted to our application. The methods presented here take the property of local segmentation geodesic active contours and have the ability to change the topology automatically. The computation time is considerably reduced after taking into account a new level set function which eliminates the re-initialization procedure. Satisfactory results are obtained after applying this algorithm both on synthetic and real images.
