In OFDM systems, mobile channel degrades the system performance seriously. Therefore, channel estimation technique is required to compensate for the degradation from the channel effects. However, conventional channel estimations in frequency domain induce ICI which is induced from Doppler frequency. In addition, a linear interpolation method causes inaccurate channel estimation. In order to minimize the effect of the interference and interpolation error, the proposed method combines LS method and Kalman filtering algorithm. Channel impulse response is adaptively tracked by Kalman filtering based on the information from LS estimator. Simulation results are presented to verify the performance of the proposed channel estimation over mobile channel environment. Simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively compensate for channel degradation.

This paper describes a signal processing technique for identifying signals from defects by using an electromagnetic-ultrasonic guided waves method based on a magnetostrictive sensor that generates a torsional mode (T(0, 1)). Because this technique is based on the digital filtering, the filtered signals provide information on the relationship between the cutoff frequency of band-pass filter and the characteristic of defect signals in heat exchange tubes. To verify the performance of the technique, artificial defects with various thickness reduction ration and shape were machined in titanium tubes, and digital filtering results are reported. The results show that digital filtering provides information to the identify shape of defects and the contact condition between the tube and support ring. Therefore, the proposed technique has good potential as a tool for evaluating the integrity of heat exchange tubes.

A filtering power divider based on air-filled substrate-integrated waveguide (AFSIW) technology is proposed in this study. The AFSIW structure is used in the proposed filtering power divider for substantially reducing the transmission losses. This structure occupies a large area because of the use of air as a dielectric instead of typical dielectric materials. A filtering power divider provides power division and frequency selectivity simultaneously in a single device. The proposed filtering power divider comprises three AFSIW cavities. The filtering function is achieved using symmetrical inductive posts. The input and output ports of the proposed circuit are realized by directly connecting coaxial lines to the AFSIW cavities. This transition from the coaxial line to the AFSIW cavity eliminates the additional transitions, such as AFSIW-SIW and SIW-conductor-backed coplanar waveguide, applied in existing AFSIW circuits. The proposed power divider with a second-order bandpass filtering response is fabricated and measured at 5.5 GHz. The measurement results show that this circuit has a minimum insertion loss of 1 dB, 3-dB fractional bandwidth of 11.2%, and return loss exceeding 11 dB.

웹 상에서 사용자들 간의 관계(Relation)를 통해 인적 네트워크를 형성할 수 있게 해주는 온라인 서비스를 SNS(Social Networking Services)라고 한다. 최근에는 GPS가 내장된 디지털장치(스마트 폰, 태블릿 PC 등)를 통해 획득한 위치 정보를 SNS에 추가한 LBSNS(Location-Based SNS) 서비스에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 사용자가 원하는 관심지역의 정보만을 구독하는 LBSNS 서비스를 구현하기 위해서는 공간필터링 기법이 요구된다. 공간필터링을 위해서는 트윗에 위치정보를 포함해야 한다. 위치정보는 사용자의 이동에 따라 함께 변하는 동적정보로 표현되거나 최초위치에서 고정되는 정적정보로 표현될 수 있다. 동적 위치정보를 사용할 경우 사용자의 이동에 따라 연속적으로 공간 필터링 질의가 발생하므로 서버에 많은 부하를 줄 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 동적 위치정보로 인해 대량으로 발생하는 연속질의 문제를 해결하기 위해서 가상그리드 기법을 이용한 공간필터링 알고리즘을 제안한다. 성능평가 결과 가상그리드 기법을 활용한 경우 질의 발생빈도 측면에서 최고 93%성능이 개선되었다.

본 연구에서는 흉부 CR 영상에 대하여 다양한 디지털 영상처리 기법을 가하여 영상의 질을 개선시키고 화질 평가를 수행하였다. 또한 흉부 CR 영상의 선예도를 개선하기 위해서 고주파 강조 필터링과 히스토그램 평활화를 MATLAB으로 구현하여 시뮬레이션 한 결과 고주파 강조 필터링과 히스토그램 평활화를 통해서 원영상의 대조도가 개선되었다. 디지털영상처리에 의해 화질의 개선된 정도를 평가하기 위해서 영상의 관찰에 의한 주관적 평가기법을 이용하였다. 신호 또는 병소가 있는 영상에서 신호 또는 병소를 발견할 확률로 감도를 계산하였다. 고주파 강조 필터링과 히스토그램 평활화가 수행된 영상의 감도는 원영상보다 개선되었고, 의료영상에서 수행된 디지털 영상처리는 영상의 질을 향상시켰다.

To solve the problems of the low image contrast, fuzzy edge details and edge details missing in noisy image fusion, this study proposes a noisy infrared and visible light image fusion algorithm based on non-subsample contourlet transform (NSCT) and an improved bilateral filter, which uses NSCT to decompose an image into a low-frequency component and high-frequency component. High-frequency noise and edge information are mainly distributed in the high-frequency component, and the improved bilateral filtering method is used to process the high-frequency component of two images, filtering the noise of the images and calculating the image detail of the infrared image's high-frequency component. It can extract the edge details of the infrared image and visible image as much as possible by superimposing the high-frequency component of infrared image and visible image. At the same time, edge information is enhanced and the visual effect is clearer. For the fusion rule of low-frequency coefficient, the local area standard variance coefficient method is adopted. At last, we decompose the high- and low-frequency coefficient to obtain the fusion image according to the inverse transformation of NSCT. The fusion results show that the edge, contour, texture and other details are maintained and enhanced while the noise is filtered, and the fusion image with a clear edge is obtained. The algorithm could better filter noise and obtain clear fused images in noisy infrared and visible light image fusion.

A new data-driven method for the design of a blind modulation frequency filter that suppresses the slow-varying noise components is proposed. The proposed method is based on the temporal local decorrelation of the feature vector sequence, and is done on an utterance-by-utterance basis. Although the conventional modulation frequency filtering approaches the same form regardless of the task and environment conditions, the proposed method can provide an adaptive modulation frequency filter that outperforms conventional methods for each utterance. In addition, the method ultimately performs channel normalization in a feature domain with applications to log-spectral parameters. The performance was evaluated by speaker-independent isolated-word recognition experiments under additive noise environments. The proposed method achieved outstanding improvement for speech recognition in environments with significant noise and was also effective in a range of feature representations.

본 논문에서, Gaussian noise를 제거할 때 발생하는 over blurring 현상을 감소시키는 network를 구현하였다. 기존 filtering 방식은 원 영상을 blurring하여 noise를 제거함으로써, edge나 corner 같은 high frequency 성분도 함께 지워지는 것을 확인할 수 있다. CNN (Convolutional Neural Network)기반 denoiser의 경우도 사소한 edge, keypoint를 noise로 인식하여 이러한 정보를 잃게 된다. 우리는 CNN을 기반으로 denoising된 high frequency 성분만을 획득하여 기존 denoiser에 추가함으로써 denoising 성능을 유지하면서 over blurring을 완화하는 network 제안한다.

A simple and effective filtering method to control the member size of an optimized structure is proposed for topology optimization. In the present approach, the original objective sensitivities are replaced with their relative values evaluated within a filtering area. By adjusting the size of the filtering area, the member size of an optimized structure or the level of its topological complexity can be controlled even within a given finite element mesh. In contrast to the checkerboard-free filter, the present filter focuses on high-frequency components of the sensitivities. Since the present filtering method does not add a penalty term to the objective function nor require additional constraints, it is not only efficient but also simple to implement. Mean compliance minimization and eigenfrequency maximization problems are considered to verify the effectiveness of the present approach.

협업필터링은 사용자들이 평가한 항목들의 유사성을 기반으로 평가되지 않은 항목을 효과적으로 추천해주는 기법이다. 기존에는 사용자가 평가하지 않은 항목 중 상위 N개 항목의 추천 정확도를 높이기 위하여 사용자의 항목의 대한 상대적 선호도를 반영하는 쌍 기반 선호도(pair-wise preference)와 목록 기반 선호도(list-wise preference)가 제안되었다. 하지만 이러한 방법들은 사용자가 평가한 항목 간의 상대적인 선호도를 표현하는데 한계가 있으며, 각각의 항목들의 중요도를 반영할 수 없는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 유사도 및 순위 값을 계산할 때 평점 선호도 표현 방법과 역 사용자 빈도수(inverse user frequency)를 이용하여 사용자의 잠재된 선호도를 표현하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 제안 방법을 메모리 기반 협업필터링에 적용하여 비교한 결과 기존 방법보다 최대 2배 이상 정확도가 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
