Multi-detector row CT (MDCT) provides faster speed, longer coverage in conjunction with thin slices, improved spatial resolution, and ability to produce high quality muliplanar and three-dimensional (3D) images. MDCT has revolutionized the non-invasive evaluation of the central airways. Simultaneous display of axial, multiplanar, and 3D images raises precision and accuracy of the radiologic diagnosis of central airway disease. This article introduces central airway imaging with MDCT emphasizing on the emerging role of multiplanar and 3D reconstruction.

In this study, the method to improve positioning accuracy under the multi-DGPS coverage is suggested. the linearly interpolated PRC regenerating algorithm was applied to improve the DGPS positioning accuracy at user's position by using the various PRC information obtained from multi-DGPS reference stations. To test the performance of the suggested method, the RTK-GPS result was used as the reference and the quantitative analysis results of the performance of the developed navigation algorithm are presented.

China has deployed BDS along with the service of SBAS by 2020. Currently, the correction information for testing BDSBAS is provided through the BDS B1I signal. Many research on SBAS other than BDSBAS has been conducted in Korea. However, studies on BDSBAS are insufficient although Korea is included in both the coverage area of MSAS and BDSBAS. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously analyze the performance of MSAS and BDSBAS. In this paper, the performance of MSAS and BDSBAS in Korea, China, and Japan is analyzed in the aspect of positioning accuracy using the GNSS RINEX data provided by IGS. A Software platform is designed to analyze the performance of GPS-only, BDS-only, GPS/MSAS and BDS/BDSBAS. From the result, it can be concluded that the accuracy enhancement can be hardly seen when using the correction information of MSAS and BDSBAS in Korea

The test transimissionof DGPS correction data has been carried out since early 1996. The data has been sent from marine radiobeacon station at Changgi Gap Ligthouse. It was the first test brosdcast of DGPS correction data based on midium frequency of marine radiobeacon where transmission power and rate are 300W and 100bps respectively. However, there has not been any scientific study on the characteristic of the accuracy of a marine DGPS/radiobeacon. Accordingly. this paper investigates the accuracy of the system, which is currently operating in 310KHz. As a result , planned 8 reference station and coverage verified that the differential positioning accuray using themarine radiobeacon is sufficient to ensure the safetyof marine activities around the coast of Korea(position error of distance 107NM at reference station was about10m(drms)).

This paper investigates optimization-based base station (BS) placement. An optimization model is defined and the BS placement problem is transformed to a lexicographical stratified programming (LSP) model for a given trajectory, according to different accuracy requirements. The feasible region for BS deployment is obtained from the positioning system requirement, which is also solved with signal coverage problem in BS placement. The LSP mathematical model is formulated with the average geometric dilution of precision (GDOP) as the criterion. To achieve an optimization solution, a tolerant factor based complete stratified series approach and grid searching method are utilized to obtain the possible optimal BS placement. Because of the LSP model utilization, the proposed algorithm has wider application scenarios with different accuracy requirements over different trajectory segments. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has better BS placement result than existing approaches for a given trajectory.

Case studies are made to investigate the relationship between the accuracy of energy production estimation and project feasibility indicators such as rate of return on equity (ROE) and debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) for three wind farm projects. It is found out that 1% improvement in the accuracy of energy production estimation may enhance the ROE by more than 0.5% in the case of P95, thanks to improved financing terms. AHP survey shows that MCP correlation of measured in situ wind data with long term wind speed distribution and hands-on experiences of flow analysis are more important than other factors for more precise annual energy production estimation.

Precise Point Positioning-Real Time Kinematic (PPP-RTK) is a high accuracy positioning method that combines RTK and PPP to overcome the limitations on service coverage of RTK and convergence time of PPP. PPP-RTK provides correction data in the form of State Space Representation (SSR), unlike RTK, which provides measurement-based Observation Space Representation (OSR). Due to this, PPP-RTK has an advantage that it can transmit less data than RTK. So, recently, several techniques for PPP-RTK have been proposed. However, in order to utilize PPP-RTK techniques, performance analysis of these in a real environment is essential. In this paper, we implement the local network PPP-RTK and analyze the positioning performance according to the distance within 100 km from the reference station in Korea. As results of experiment, the horizontal and vertical 95% errors of local network PPP-RTK were 6.25 cm and 5.86 cm or less, respectively.

Wide-Area Differential Global Positioning System (WADGPS) is a system that operates a number of reference stations to provide correction information to improve the accuracy of GPS users, and it is available to service users within the area where the wide-area reference stations are installed. Recently, as positioning information has been used in various applications, the need for WADGPS for precise navigation in long-distance spaced areas where the wide-area reference stations cannot be installed has been raised. This paper tested the user navigation performance outside the wide-area reference stations of the WADGPS system, which serves both GPS Precise Positioning Service (PPS) and Standard Positioning Service (SPS) users. Static and dynamic tests were conducted using vehicles, and as a result, position accuracy improvement through WADGPS was confirmed even at points hundreds of kilometers outside the network area of the wide-area reference stations. Through this, the performance of the PPS/SPS correction system and the possibility of expanding the service area were confirmed.

Long sentence analysis has been a critical problem in machine translation because of high complexity. The methods of intra-sentence segmentation have been proposed to reduce parsing complexity. This paper presents the intra-sentence segmentation method based on maximum entropy probability model to increase the coverage and accuracy of the segmentation. We construct the rules for choosing candidate segmentation positions by a teaming method using the lexical context of the words tagged as segmentation position. We also generate the model that gives probability value to each candidate segmentation positions. The lexical contexts are extracted from the corpus tagged with segmentation positions and are incorporated into the probability model. We construct training data using the sentences from Wall Street Journal and experiment the intra-sentence segmentation on the sentences from four different domains. The experiments show about $88\%$ accuracy and about $98\%$ coverage of the segmentation. Also, the proposed method results in parsing efficiency improvement by 4.8 times in speed and 3.6 times in space.
