In this paper, we propose the architecture of an IPM based lane detector for autonomous vehicles to detect and control the driving route along the curved lane. In the IPM image, we divide the area into two fields, Far/Near Field, and the lane candidate region is detected using the Hough transform to perform the matching for the curved lane. In autonomous vehicles, various algorithms must be embedded in the system. To reduce the system resources, we proposed a method to minimize the number of memory accesses to the image and various parameters on the external memory. The proposed circuit has 96% lane recognition rate and occupies 16% LUT, 5.9% FF and 29% BRAM in Xilinx XC7Z020. It processes Full-HD image at a rate of 42 fps at a 100 MHz operating clock.

Recently, the direct terrestrial broadcasting reception has been reduced rapidly and not been improved even in digital broadcast environment. The distribution plan of 700MHz frequency band(Ch.52~69) will make the problem worse because the spectrum might be allocated to mobile communication use. In this paper, we investigated the efficient frequency usage for DTV signal reception improvement and next generation broadcasting. The frequency amount required for reception improvement and for next generation broadcasting service is presented. We estimated the beneficial effect when the spectrum(108MHz Frequency Width) is used for SFN transmission technology, UHDTV and Full-HD 3DTV.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the usage pattern between each academic database through social network analysis, and to support the academic database for users's needs. For this purpose, we have extracted log data to construct the academic database networks in the proxy server of K university library and have analyzed the usage pattern among each research area and among each social position. Our results indicate that the specialized academic database for the research area has more cohesion than the generalized academic database in the full-time professors' network and the doctoral students' network, and the density, degree centrality and degree centralization of the full-time professors' network and the doctoral students' network are higher than those of the other social position networks.

Organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs) have received considerable attention since they were first reported by Tang. Novel organic fluorescent materials have been reported on synthesis and application of new organic light-emitting materials. Despite of much recent progress, fabrication of full-color OLEDs still remained to be done. Many method have been proposed to full-color OLEDs displays such as using separated red, green and blue emitters, stacking separate rad, green and blue emitter, using a white emitter with individually pattered color filters, microcavity structures and using a blue emitter with individually patterned fluorescent materials. The last method has much attention because of easy fabrication of OLEDs and low-priced fabrication. This paper reports the optical and electrical characteristics of OLEDs using novel molecules containing biphenyl structure. Optical properties of biphenyl derivatives doped with poly(9-vinyl carbazole)(PVK) are measured and found Forster energy transfer process in the blends. And devices were fabricated as ITO/PEDOT/PVK doped with biphenyl derivatives/$Alq_3$/Li:Al and I-V-L characteristics and EL efficiency of devices were examined.

The exact model of impact ionization events in which has influence on device efficiency, is to be necessary element for device simulation. Recently, a modified Keldysh formula with two set of power exponent of 7.8 and 5.6 is used to simulate carrier transport. This model is, however, not suitable as impact ionization model in low energy range since this ignore direction dependent properties of impact ionization. The impact ionization rate is highly anisotropic at low energy, while it becomes isotropic at higher energy range. Note that impact ionization events frequently occur in high energy range. For calculating impart ionization rate, we use full energy band structure derived from Fermi's golden rule and empirical pseudopotential method. We compare with calculated and experimental value, and investigate direction dependent conduction energy band structure along the direction of <100>, <110> and <111>. We know that the threshold energy of impact ionization is anisotropic and impact ionization rate is very deviated from modified Keldish formula, in relatively low energy range.

In this paper, we propose a fast block matching algorithm using the lower and upper bound of mean absolute difference (MAD) which is calculated at the search region overlapped with neighbor blocks. At first, we calculate the lower bound of MAD and reduce the search point by using this lower bound. In this method, we can get good prediction error performance close to full search block matching algorithm (FSBMA), but there exists some computational complexity that has to be reduced. Therefore, we further reduce the computational complexity by using pixel subsampling besides the lower and upper bound of MAD. Experimental results show that we can remarkably reduce the computational complexity with good prediction error performance close to FSBMA.

We investigated the performance of a visible light communication (VLC) transceiver applicable to both of illumination and wireless communication. we considered the visibility of VLC, the easy connection for wireless communication and high-speed transmission and implemented VLC transceiver based on edge-emitting laser diode and silicon photodiode. The proposed VLC transceiver is designated to operate in a full duplex mode at high speed of 120 Mbit/s. The shielding method that is employed as a means to reduce the light cross coupling effect inside the VLC transceiver is proposed and its performance is experimentally measured. We also applied optical antenna to have the larger angle of field of view (FOV) to novel structure of VLC transceiver and examined and analyzed their bit error rate performance, photometric result with respect to the transmission distance, the coverage range and the tilt degree as transmission link characteristic between two transceivers without optical antenna and with optical antenna.

Subjective sentences express opinions, emotions, evaluations and other subjective ideas relevant to products or events. These expressions sometimes can be seen in only part of a sentence, thus extracting features from a full-sentence can degrade the performance of subjective-sentence-classification. This paper presents a method for improving the performance of a subjectivity classifier by combining two classifiers generated from the different representations of an input sentence. One representation is a sentimental phrase that represents an automatically identified subjective expression or objective expression and the other representation is a full-sentence. Each representation is used to extract modified n-grams that are composed of a word and its contextual words' polarity information. The best performance, 79.7% accuracy, 2.5% improvement, was obtained when the phrase-level classifier and the sentence-level classifier were merged.

The impact ionization(I.I.) is necessary to analyze carrier transport properties under the influence of high electric field. The full band I-k relation and Fermi's golden rule are used for the calculation of impact ionization rate. We have investigated the temperature- and field-dependent impact ionization coefficient for silicon using full band Monte Carlo simulation. The impact ionization coefficients calculated by our impact ionization model are agreed with experimental data at look. We know that impact ionization coefficients and electron energies are decreasing along increasing temperature due to increase of phonon scattering, especially by emission. The logarithm of impact ionization coefficients are fitted to linear function for temperature and field. The residuals of linear function are within the error bound of 5%. We know logarithmic impact ionization coefficients are linearly dependent on temperature and field.
