This paper presents one-axis high precision scanning system and illustrates the design of modified $X-Y-{\theta}$ stage as a tracker using VCM and commercialized air bearings for it. The scanning system for 100nm resolution is composed of the 3-axis stage and one axis long stroke linear motor stage as a follower. In this study a previous proposed and presented structure of VCM for the fine stage is modified. The tracker has 3 DOF($X-Y-{\theta}$ motions by four VCM actuators which are located on the same plane. So 4 actuating forces are suggested and designed to create least pitch and roll motions. This article will show about the design especially about optimal design. The design focus of this fine stage is to have high acceleration to accomplish high throughput. The optimal design of maximizing acceleration is performed in restrained size. The most sensitive constraint of this optimal design is heat dissipation of coil. There are 5 design variables. Because the relationship between design variables and system parameters are quite complicated, it is very difficult to set design variables manually. Due to it, computer based optimal design procedure using MATLAB is used. Then, this paper also describes the procedures of selecting design variables for the optimal design and a mathematical formulation of the optimization problem. Based on the solution of the optimization problem, the final design of the stage is also presented. The results can be verified by MAXWELL. The designed stage has the acceleration of about 5 $m/s^{2}$ with 40kg total mass including wafer chuck and interferometer mirror. And the temperature of coil is increased $50^{\circ}C$. In addition, the tracker is controlled by high precision controller system with HP interferometer for it and linear scaler for the follower. At that time, the scanning system has high precision resolution about 5nm and scanning resolution about 40nm in 25mm/s constant speed

A meso-urban meteorological model (Urbanized MM5; uMM5) with urban canopy parameterization (UCP) was applied to the high-resolution simulation of meteorological fields in a complex coastal urban area and the assessment of urban impacts. Multi-scale simulations with the uMM5 in the innermost domain (1-km resolution) covering the Busan metropolitan region were performed during a typical sea breeze episode (4~8 August 2006) with detailed fine-resolution inputs (urban morphology, land-use/land-cover sub-grid distribution, and high-quality digital elevation model data sets). An additional simulation using the standard MM5 was also conducted to identify the effects of urban surface properties under urban meteorological conditions. Results showed that the uMM5 reproduced well the urban thermal and dynamic environment and captured well the observed feature of sea breeze. When comparison with simulations of the standard MM5, it was found that the uMM5 better reproduced urban impacts on temperature (especially at nighttime) and urban wind flows: roughness-induced deceleration and UHI (Urban Heat Island)-induced convergence.

For B-mode ultrasound images, we propose an image enhancement algorithm based on a multi-resolution approach, which consists of edge enhancing and noise reducing procedures. Edge enhancement processing is applied sequentially to coarse-to-fine resolution images obtained from wavelet-transformed data. In each resolution, the structural features of each pixel are examined through eigen analysis. Then, if a pixel belongs to an edge region, we perform two-step filtering: that is, directional smoothing is conducted along the tangential direction of the edge to improve continuity and directional sharpening is conducted along the normal direction to enhance the contrast. In addition, speckle noise is alleviated by proper attenuation of the wavelet coefficients of the homogeneous regions at each band. This region-based speckle-reduction scheme is differentiated from other methods that are based on the magnitude statistics of the wavelet coefficients. The proposed algorithm enhances edges regardless of changes in the resolution of an image, and the algorithm efficiently reduces speckle noise without affecting the sharpness of the edge. Hence, compared with existing algorithms, the proposed algorithm considerably improves the subjective image quality without providing any noticeable artifacts.

In this paper, we say the adaptive shading correction system supporting multi-resolution for mobile camera. The shading effect is caused by non-uniform illumination, non-uniform camera sensitivity, or even dirt and dust on glass (lens) surfaces. In general this shading effect is undesirable [1-3]. Eliminating it is frequently necessary for subsequent processing and especially when quantitative microscopy is the fine goal. The proposed system is available on thirty nine kinds of image resolutions scanned by interlaced and progressive type. Moreover, the system is using forty kinds of continuous quadratic equations instead of using the piece-wise linear curve which is composed of multiple line segments. Finally, the system could correct the shading effect without discontinuity in any image resolution. The proposed system is implemented in VLSI with cell library based on Hynix $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS technology.

Stereo matching has been grabbing the attention of researchers because it plays an important role in computer vision, remote sensing and photogrammetry. Although most methods perform well with small size images, experiments applying them to large-scale data sets under uncontrolled conditions are still lacking. In this paper, we present an empirical study on stereo matching for large-scale high-resolution satellite images. A new method is studied to solve the problem of huge size and memory requirement when dealing with large-scale high resolution satellite images. Integrating the tiling technique with the well-known dynamic programming and coarse-to-fine pyramid scheme as well as using memory wisely, the suggested method can be utilized for huge stereo satellite images. Analyzing 350 points from an image of size of 8192 x 8192, disparity results attain an acceptable accuracy with RMS error of 0.5459. Taking the trade-off between computational aspect and accuracy, our method gives an efficient stereo matching for huge satellite image files.

본 연구는 고해상도 디지털 X선 영상 검출기 적용을 위해 미세 $Gd_2O_2S$:Tb 형광체 분말을 저온 액상법을 이용하여 합성하였다. 제조된 형광체 분말을 이용하여 입자침전법을 이용하여 형광체 필름을 제작하여 발광특성을 조사하였다. 측정결과, Tb 첨가농도에 따른 상대적인 발광량 측정결과 5 wt%의 첨가농도에서 가장 높은 발광효율을 보였으며, 첨가농도가 증가할수록 소광현상에 의한 발광강도가 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 270 ${\mu}m$ 두께의 $Gd_2O_2S$:Tb에서 2945 pC/$cm^2$/mR의 발광 강도를 가졌으며, 발광 강도가 거의 포화되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 끝으로 제조된 형광체의 영상획득 성능을 평가하기 위해 상용화된 CMOS 센서를 이용하여 X선 영상을 획득하여 MTF, NPS를 측정하여 DQE 평가를 수행하였다. 측정결과, DQE(0)의 값은 37%로 다소 낮은 값을 보였다. 향후 필름 제조 공정상의 문제점을 해결한다면, DQE를 개선할 수 있을 것으며, 고해상도 의료 방사선 영상 시스템 적용에 유용하게 적용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

본 논문은 단일 영상 기반의 초해상도에서 결과의 품질을 개선하기 위해 적응형 가중치를 적용한 잔차 블록으로 구성된 다중 블록 구조를 이용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 딥러닝을 이용한 초해상도를 생성하는 과정에서 품질 향상을 위한 가장 중요한 요소는 특징 추출 및 적용이다. 해상도가 낮아 이미 손실된 세부사항을 복원하기 위해 다양한 특징을 추출하는 것이 최우선이지만 네트워크의 구조가 깊어지거나 복잡해지는 등의 문제가 발생하기 때문에 실제 적용에서 제한사항이 있다. 따라서 특징 추출 과정은 효율적으로 구성하고 적용 과정을 개선하여 품질을 개선하였다. 이를 위해 최초 특징 추출 이후 다중 블록 구조를 구성하였고 블록 내부에는 중첩된 잔차 블록을 구성한 뒤 적응형 가중치를 적용하였다. 또한 최종 고해상도 복원을 위해 다중 커널을 이용한 영상 재구성 과정을 적용함으로써 결과물의 품질을 향상시켰다. 평가를 위해 원본 영상 대비 PSNR과 SSIM 값을 구하였고 기존 알고리즘과 비교하여 제안하는 방법의 성능 향상을 확인하였다.
