  • Due to the development of camera technology, the cost of producing time-lapse video has been reduced, and time-lapse videos are being applied in many fields. Time-lapse video is created using images obtained by shooting for a long time at long intervals. In this paper, we propose a method to improve the quality of time-lapse videos monitoring the changes in plants. Considering the characteristics of time-lapse video, we propose a method of separating the desired and unnecessary objects and removing unnecessary elements. The characteristic of time-lapse videos that we have noticed is that unnecessary elements appear intermittently in the captured images. In the proposed method, noises are removed by applying a codebook background modeling algorithm to use this characteristic. Experimental results show that the proposed method is simple and accurate to find and remove unnecessary elements in time-lapse videos.

  • The ultimate goal of this study can be summed up as follows: First, the utility of Time-Lapse that observes and records people's behavior will be shown and its merits and demerits will be discussed through comparing with other data-collecting methods such as the naked- eye observation, and the specific way in which Time-Lapse can be put to use will be suggested. Second, analysis of use behavior boserved in the plaza of Chungryangri station by Time-Lapse will be made, on the basis of which suggestions will be made concerning planing, designing, layout, and management of the station plaza. Time-Lapse can observe and records the plaza of Chungryangri Staton through 6 different ways of recording in Time-Lapse: 30 seconds, every minute, every two minutes, second every five minutes, every one tenth of a second, and every one fifth of a second, and these different ways of recording were analyzed through comparison from one to each other to check their respective utilities. And also analysis of tracks of pedestrians, density, and use behavior of users were made, according to which the way in which Time-Lapse can be utilized was examined. Several useful results obtained from this study are shown as follows. First, Time-Lapse made it possible to continuously observe for a long time using minimu efforts, and a single tape which is able to cover from 12 hours up to 25 days is useful for observing variation of behavior in space with the passage of time and seasons. Second, among six ways of recording, the recording every one tenth of a second and every one fifth of a second are useful for finding the tracks of pedestrians, the number of users, the member compositions, the time spent in one place, and manner of use. And besides the moving direction and its purpose can be recognized in a short time, which makes it possile to see where crossings of moving directions occur. Third, the recording every thirty seconds, every minute, every two minutes, and every five minutes are useful for analyzing the density in space as well as for finding the number of users and frequency of facilities use. In particular the recording every thirty seconds made it possible to keep the track of pedestrians' walking, and to observe even slowly moving motions such as cleaning. But when the recording interval exceeds one minute, this was not possible. Fourth, time-lapse has advantages over the naked eye observation in several respects. Time-lapse can measure observed behavior and density in terms of number, and locate the position of users. Time-Lapse, if accompanied by other methods such as interviewing and question that can examine psychological aspects like satisfaction or the purpose of use and be a useful device for space studies.

  • Time-lapse seismic surveys make repeated seismic surveys at different stages of oil production of a hydrocarbon reservoir to monitor changes in reservoir like fluid saturation. Since the repeatable surface seismic measurements can identify fluid types and map fluid saturations, oil and gas companies can make much more informed decision during not only production but also drilling and development. If time-lapse seismic surveys compare 3D seismic surveys, the time-lapse surveys are widely called as 4D seismic. A meaningful time-lapse interpretation is based on the repeatability of seismic surveys, which mainly depends on improved positioning and reduced noise (if surveys were designed properly through a feasibility study). The time-lapse interpretation can help oil and gas companies to maximize oil and gas recovery. This paper discusses about time-lapse seismic surveys mainly focused on feasibility, repeatability, data processing and interpretation.

  • Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the relation between swing phase and airborne phase of Tkatchev motion which was successfully performed with following motion by excellent middle and high school athletes in horizontal bar. Method: The subjects for this study were 8 male middle and high school top athletes. After their Tkatchev motions were filmed by two digital highspeed camcorders setting in 90 frames/sec at the 44th National Gymnastics against Cities and Provinces, the % lapse time lapse time of each instant, inferred maximum force acting on horizontal bar, and other kinematical variables were calculated through DLT method. After the relations among the % lapse times of each instants of downswing-start, downswing-finish, whipswing-finish, release, peak-height, and lapse time of regrasp, the relation among maximum force acting on bar, % lapse time, peak height, and the relation between % lapse time and release height were examined, the biomechanical timing characteristics of Tkatchev motion were as follows. Results: Firstly, it was revealed that the whole lapse time was $1.62{\pm}.06s$ and the correlation between the % lapse time of downswing-start and % lapse time of release was .819. Secondly, it was revealed that the pattern of COG path was shifted forwardly and tilted 11 clockwise from origin. Thirdly, it was revealed that maximum force acting on bar was inferred in $2,283{\pm}425N$ ($4.7{\pm}.6BW$) and the correlation between maximum force and peak height was r = .893. Lastly, it was revealed that the horizontal and vertical component of body COG velocity was $-2.14{\pm}.29m/s$, $2.70{\pm}.43m/s$ respectively, release height was $.49{\pm}.12m$, and shoulder angle was $139{\pm}5deg$, and that the later the % lapse time of release, the higher the release height (r = .935). Conclusion: It is desired that the gymnastic athletes should delay the downswing-start near the horizontal plane on $2^{nd}$ quadrant because the later the % lapse time of downswing, the higher the release height. After all the higher release height could ensure the athletes to regrasp the bar safely, the athletes should exercise to make downswing-start delay.

  • Since seasonal changes, blooming of a flower, etc., which take place in accordance with passage of time, transpire over an extended duration of time, one performs the Time-Lapse so that one can watch them quickly by compressing time. Because such a Time-Lapse records a wide range of conditions including the place, angle of view, and time found in a natural state in accordance with a precise interval of time and in the samestate, it is also referred to as Interval recording. The Time-Lapse technique is used widely in various fields such as education, science, documentary, and the media. In terms of acquiring a Time-Lapse image, by making it possible for one to treat an image by deleting and adjusting unnecessary backgrounds excluding the main subject for photography such as the flower unlike existing methods and by making it possible for one to apply extensively the real-life recorded image as a library or image data in 2D or 3D, the present study seeks to propose a technique for the background treatment of Time-Lapse image that allows for everyone to bestow creativity to image production easily and conveniently.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Task-oriented training on the balance, lapse time and MVC(Maximum Voluntary Contraction) of CVA(cerebral vascular accident) patients. The active balance equipment was used to measure of the static balance, lapse time and task-oriented training. The EMG technique was used to record muscle activitie of affected side of gluteus medius and vastus medialis. The raw EMG data were filtered with band pass filter (60Hz) to remove artifacts and then low pass filtered (20Hz) to find the linear envelope which resemble muscle tension curve. The experiment had been conducted at the department of physical therapy in J hospital in M city during 8weeks. The thirty patients experienced the stroke were participated: training group (15), control group (15). They were ambulatory with or without an assistive device. They were assessed on central perturbation(mm) in the static balance, lapse time(s) and MVC test(mV). The data were analyzed using repeated measured ANOVA. The results were as follows: After Task-oriented training, central perturbation and lapse time was significantly differences in both groups(p<.001), and MVC in gluteus medius were no significant differences in both groups, but vastus medialis was significant differences in both groups (p<.001).

  • Chopi, Zanthaxylum piperitum DC., has been used as natural spice traditionally in the Far East countries including Korea. This study was performed with the object of providing basic data, firstly for the decision of the appropriate harvesting time for traditional use of chopi and secondly for developing a new spice satisfying the national dietary custom from chopi as raw material. Concerning the conte수 and its change of the proximate composition, the content of moisture and crude protein decreased in all sample, while the content of fiber and ash tended to increased with the lapse of harvest time. The content of mineral elements tended to increase in every sample with the lapse of harvest time, and contents of K and P were higher than that of Ca, Na and Mg. Every sample showed the highest content of 15~16 components of total amino acids at the first period and the content decreased gradually with the lapse of harvest time. On the basis of the first period, every sample showed the highest content of aspartic acid, the lowest content of methionine and the trace of cysteine. Free amino acids increased considerably with the lapse of harvest time for peels of chopi and minchopi broth, while the amount for leaves increased on the contrary.

  • The supply of DSLR cameras has increased recently. Because of its widespread use, different types of DSLR camera video techniques have also been developed. Time-lapse is an effective filming technique that helps produce a fine-quality video clip by taking pictures of multiple camera shots during certain time intervals without recording the actual video clip, as the existing technique does. Machinery equipment (dolly), which controls the speed of movement and shutter, needs to be deleted. This paper introduces a method for a designing movement system that satisfies the design conditions. In addition, this paper proved the validity of the design by performing stress analysis on the static and dynamic conditions of the final design.

  • The comparison between time-lapse seismic datasets is the most popular method in the reservoir monitoring. The method of extracting the changes only due to the change in the reservoir is the essential technique in the comparison of time-lapse seismic datasets. In the paper, the conventional cross-equalization approaches and an enhanced optimized approach have been tested and compared each other. As conventional approaches, the bandwidth equalization and phase rotation methods have been tested in frequency, time and mixed domains, respectively and their results were compared each other. In order to overcome the limit of the conventional approaches, which loses high frequency components, a new constrained optimum filtering method was proposed and experimented. The new constrained filtering method has shown the improvement in broadening the bandwidth of the components of reservoir changes by acquiring optimized match filter.
