  • This paper presents a novel method to speed up neural network (NN) based face detection systems. NN-based face detection can be viewed as a classification and search problem. The proposed method formulates the search problem as an integer nonlinear optimization problem (INLP) and expands the basic particle swarm optimization (PSO) to solve it. PSO works with a population of particles, each representing a subwindow in an input image. The subwindows are evaluated by how well they match a NN-based face filter. A face is indicated when the filter response of the best particle is above a given threshold. To achieve better performance, the influence of PSO parameter settings on the search performance was investigated. Experiments show that with fine-adjusted parameters, the proposed method leads to a speedup of 94 on 320${\times}$240 images compared to the traditional exhaustive search method.

  • The resonance structure of the preionization spectrum of $H_2$ in the region immediately above its ionization threshold, ($^2{\sum}_{g}^{+}$, $\nu^+=0$, $N^+=0$) converging toward its rotationally excited ($\nu^+=0$, $N^+=2$) limit, is complicated due to perturbation by the vibrationally excited levels $7_{p\pi}\;v=1$ and $57_{p\pi}\;v=2$. The spectra of interlopers are separated from the rotationally preionizing Rydberg series to allow analysis of this complex resonance structure. Although only two vibrationally excited levels perturb the rotational preionization spectrum, at least 6 interloper Rydberg series participate in the complex spectrum over most of its energy range and more interloper series participate at a narrow range around $124500cm^{-1}$ in the spectrum. To allow handling of an arbitrary number of interloper series, MATLAB$^{(R)}$'s symbolic operation is used to perform on-the-fly formulation.

  • We obtain the general formulation which can handle the rotational preionization spectrum of $H_2$ in the region above its ${H_2}^+$ ionization threshold, ($^2{\sum}_g^+$, ${\nu}^+=0$, $N^+=0$) converging toward its rotationally excited (${\nu}^+=0$, $N^+=2$) limit and perturbed by the vibrationally excited levels $7p{\pi}$ ${\nu}=1$ and $5p{\pi}$ ${\nu}^=2$. The formulation is based on phase-shifted multichannel quantum-defect theory. With this formulation, resonance structures are analyzed in detail.

  • The technology of LOCOS(LOCal Oxidation of Silicon) was used to form the island of SOI film. After this, the SOI film was recrystallized by CO$_2$ laser and metal gate nMOSFETs were fabricated on this SOI film and their electrical characteristics were measured. The kink effect was not nearly observed and edge channel effect was found in the SOI nMOSFETs. The threshold voltage was about 0.5V, the electron mobility was about 340cm$^2$V$\cdot$S and an ON/OFF ratio above 10$^{5}$ was obtained at V_{DS}$=4V. The electrical characteristics were improved by laser recrystallization.

  • We present a power gating turn-on mechanism that digitally suppresses ground-bounce noise in ultra-deep submicron technology. Initially, a portion of the sleep transistors are switched on in a pseudo-random manner and then they are all turned on fully when VVDD is above a certain reference voltage. Experimental results from a realistic test circuit designed in 65nm bulk CMOS technology show the potential of our approach.

  • In this study. object transport method based on ultrasonic flexural vibration is presented. Ultrasonic vibration generates ultrasonic traveling waves on the surface of elastic medium. Objects are transported through the interaction with traveling waves propagating in medium. Two types of transport methods are studied: frictional drive and acoustic levitation. With frictional drive, objects are transported in contact with the beam in the opposite direction of wave propagation whereas with acoustic levitation, objects are acoustically levitated above the beam surface and transported in the wave propagation direction. Transport characteristics are experimentally investigated using objects of different shapes and sizes. The transition from acoustic levitation mode to frictional drive mode is also examined. and it is found to occur when the ratio of mass to area of an object exceeds the threshold ratio of mass to area. It is envisaged that this feasibility study will serve as a stepping-stone for ultrasonic vibration to become an effective industrial material handling device in the future.

  • We report on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of poly[2,7-(9-9-dioctylfluorene)] (PF) thin film under strong optical pumping using a streak camera system. When the excitation energy density increases above $72{\mu}J{\cdot}cm^{-2}$, the emission spectrum becomes narrower and PL decay curve comes to be faster simultaneously. These behaviors are clear evidence of Amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE) due to a waveguided Stimulated Emission in slab structure of thin film. ASE threshold of $72{\mu}J{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ is comparable with previous reports and PF is attractive as a gain medium for plastic lasers.

  • This paper presents an acoustic emission(AE) technique using ultrasonic sensors to diagonize power transformers. Conventional methods detect and measure the electrical signal of the partial discharge(PD) of transformers in operation. The proposed techniques measures the acoustic signal generated by the partial discharge, and counts the number of the waveforms above a threshold to diagonize transformers. Experiments showed that the proposed method improved diagonosis capability over the conventional PD method.

  • Electro-osmotic flow (EOF) instability in a microchannel has been experimentally investigated using a micro-PIV system. The micro-PIV system consisting of a two-head Nd:Yag laser and cooled CCD camera was used to measure instantaneous velocity fields and vorticity contours of the EOF instability in a T-shape glass microchannel. The electrokinetic flow instability occurs in the presence of electric conductivity gradients. Charge accumulation at the interface of conductivity gradients leads to electric body forces, driving the coupled flow and electric field into an unstable dynamics. The threshold electric field above which the flow becomes unstable and rapid mixing occurs is about 1000V/cm. As the electric field increases, the flow pattern becomes unstable and vortical motion is enhanced. This kind of instability is a key factor limiting the robust performance of complex electrokinetic bio-analytical devices, but can also be used for rapid mixing and effective flow control fer micro-scale bio-chips.

  • In this paper, dynamic properties of fiber reinforced soils were investigated at shearing strains between $10^{-4}%\;and\;10^{-1}%$ using resonant column test. Resonant column test has been widely used as a primary laboratory testing technique in investigating dynamic soil properties expressed in term of shear modulus and material damping. At strains above elastic threshold, the variations of shear modulus(G) and damping ratio(D) were investigated. Based on test results, the small strain shear modulus($G_{max}$) and damping ratio($D_{min}$) were determined and the effects of confinement on $G_{max}$ and $D_{min}$ were characterized.
