  • The purpose of the present paper is to study generic submanifolds of a Sasakian space form with nonvanishing parallel mean curvature vector field such that the shape operator in the direction of the mean curvature vector field commutes with the structure tensor field induced on the submanifold. In .cint. 1 we state general formulas on generic submanifolds of a Sasakian manifold, especially those of a Sasakian space form. .cint.2 is devoted to the study a generic submanifold of a Sasakian manifold, which is not tangent to the structure vector. In .cint.3 we investigate generic submanifolds, not tangent to the structure vector, of a Sasakian space form with nonvanishing parallel mean curvature vactor field. In .cint.4 we discuss generic submanifolds tangent to the structure vector of a Sasakian space form and compute the restricted Laplacian for the shape operator in the direction of the mean curvature vector field. As a applications of these, in the last .cint.5 we prove our main results.

  • Fall-related injuries are the most common cause of accidental death for the elderly and the most frequent work-related injuries in construction sites. Due to the growing popularity of smartphones, there has been a number of research work related to the use of sensors embedded in the smartphone for fall detection. Falls can be detected easily by measuring the magnitude and direction of acceleration vectors. In general, the direction of the acceleration vector does not show the object movement, but the velocity vector directly indicates the tangential direction in which the object is moving. In this paper, we proposed a new method for computing the fall direction based on the characteristics of the velocity vector extracted from the accelerometer.

  • The manufacture of an impeller typically requires the 5-axis CNC machining, since the impeller is usually under working conditions such as high speed, high temperature, and high pressure. Thus, this study contributes to development of an exclusive CAM system for effective 5-axis CNC machining of a ruled surface type impeller. In this study, the sampled impeller is made of blades and a body and the blade consists of ruled surfaces between hub curve and shroud curve. In the post processing for 5-axis NC part program, the cutter axis direction vector is the straighten vector on ruled surface. The position of ball center in ball end mill cutter is decided on the interference check between the cutter and body surface of impeller using with the modified z-map method that z-axis is the same of cutter axis direction vector. The exclusive CAM system for an impeller developed in this study was very effective for designs and 50-axis machining of a ruled surface type impeller.

  • Finding intersection point between a surface and a line is one of major problem in CAD/CAM. The intersection point could be found in an exact form or with numerical method. In this paper, the exact solution of the intersection point between a ruled surface which is generated by the movement of an endmill and the z-direction vector is presented. The cutter swept surface which is a ruled surface and the Z-direction vector are represented with parametric equations. With the nature of parametric equations, the geometric properties at the intersection point are easily acquired.

  • In this paper we introduce a discrete tangent vector of a polygon defined on each vertex by a linear combination of forward difference and backward difference, and show that if the polygon is originated from a smooth curve then direction of the discrete tangent vector is a second order approximation of the direction of the tangent vector of the original curve. Using this discrete tangent vector, we also introduced the geometric cubic Hermite interpolation of a polygon with controlled initial and terminal speed of the curve segments proportional to the edge length. In this case the whole interpolation is $C^1$. Experiments suggest that about $90\%$ of the edge length is the best fit for the initial and terminal speeds.

  • Recently, Direction Finding(DF) System is using switching DF algorithm to reduce system-weight by eliminating RF cable as much as possible. Also, Correlation Vector Direction Finding(CVDF) algorithms is being used for Fast Direction finding in tactical environment. In this paper, I will give you burst error elimination algorithms and compare the performance in case we use switching CVDF algorithm. Although antenna array is not working, we will successfully perform direction finding when we use this burst error elimination algorithms. Also, we will be completely capable of DF mission despite of meeting the unwanted situation that the monitoring signal disappear in case we use Switching Direction Finding algorithms. That situation frequently occurs under the Frequency Hopping signal circumstances.

  • In this paper, frame rate up conversion (FRUC) algorithm considering the direction and magnitude of identical motion vectors is proposed. extended bilateral motion estimation (EBME) has higher complexity than bilateral motion estimation (BME). By using average magnitude of motion vector with x and y direction respectively, dynamic frame and static frame are decided. We reduce complexity to decide EBME. also, After we compare the direction and magnitude of identical motion vectors, We reduce complexity to decide motion vector smoothing(MVS). Experimental results show that this proposed algorithm has fast computation and better peak singnal to noise ratio(PSNR) results compared with EBME.

  • A new intra field deinterlacing algorithm with edge map in the image block is introduced. Conventional deinterlacing methods usually employ edge-based line average algorithm within pixel-by-pixel approach. However, it is sensitive to variation of intensity. To reduce this shortcoming, we proposed edge direction vector computed by edge map, and also its interpolation technique. We first introduce an edge direction vector, which is computed by Sobel mask, so that finer resolution of the edge direction can be acquired. The proposed edge direction vector oriented deinterlacer operates by identifying small pixel variations in five orientations, while weighted averaging to estimate missing pixel. According to the edge direction of the direction vector, we calculate weights on each edge direction. These weight values multiplied by the candidate deinterlaced pixels in order to successively build approximations of the deinterlaced sequence.

  • This paper suggests a new retrieval method using weighted vector sum to resolve a problem of traditional location-based retrieval method, nearest neighbor (NN) query, and NN query using direction. The proposed method filters out data with the radius, and then the remained retrieval area is filtered by a direction information compounded of a user's moving direction, a pre-fixed interesting direction, and a pre-fixed retrieval angle. The moving direction is computed from a vector or a weighted vector sum of several vectors using a weight to adopt several cases. The retrieval angle can be set from traditional $360^{\circ}$ to any degree you want. The retrieval data for this method can be a still and moving image recorded shooting location, and also several type of media like text, web, picture offering to customer with location of company or resort. The suggested method guarantees more accurate retrieval than traditional location-based retrieval methods because that the method selects data within the radius and then removes data of useless areas like passed areas or an area of different direction. Moreover, this method is more flexible and includes the direction based NN.

  • Adaptive arrays can minimize contributions from interferences incident onto an sensor array while preserving a signal the direction vector of which corresponds to the array steering vector to within a scalar factor. If there exist errors in the steering vector, severe performance degradation can be caused since the desired signal is misunderstood as an interference by the array. This paper presents an adaptive beamforming method which is robust against steering vector errors, exploiting a range of the desired signal direction. In the presented method, an correlation matrix of array response vectors is obtained through integration over the direction range and a minimization problem is formulated using some eigenvectors of the correlation matrix such that a more accurate steering vector than initially given one can be found. The minimization problem is transformed into a relaxed SDP (semidefinite program) problem, which can be effectively solved since it is a sort of convex optimization. Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms existing ones such as ORM (outside-range-based method) and USM (uncertainty-based method).
