Two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy can probe the fast structural evolution of molecules under thermal equilibrium. Vibrational frequency fluctuation caused by structural evolution produced the time-dependent line shape change in 2D-IR spectrum. A variety of methods has been used to connect the evolution of 2D-IR spectrum with Frequency-Frequency Correlation Function (FFCF), which connects the experimental observables to a molecular level description. Here, a new method to extract FFCF from 2D-IR spectra is described. The experimental observable is the time-dependent frequency shift of maximum peak position in the slice spectrum of 2D-IR, which is taken along the excitation frequency axis. The direct relation between the 2D-IR peak shift and FFCF is proved analytically. Observing the 2D-IR peak shift does not need the full 2D-IR spectrum which covers 0-1 and 1-2 bands. Thus data collection time to determine FFCF can be reduced significantly, which helps the detection of transient species.

A problem formulation and solution methodology for design optimization of laminated thin-walled composite beams of generic section is presented. Objective functions and constraint equations are given in the form of beam stiffness. For two different problems one for open section and the other for closed section, the objective function considered is bending stiffness about x-axis. Depending upon the case, one can consider bending, torsional and axial stiffnesses. The different search and optimization algorithm, known as Evolution Strategies (ES) has been applied to find the optimal fibre orientation of composite laminates. A multi-level optimization approach is also implemented by narrowing down the size of search space for individual design variables in each successive level of optimization process. The numerical results presented demonstrate the computational advantage of the proposed method "Evolution strategies" which become pronounced to solve optimization of thin-walled composite beams of generic section.

In this paper, we approach the problem of image filter design automation using a kind of intrinsic evolvable hardware architecture. For the purpose of implementing the intrinsic evolution process in a common FPGA chip and evolving a complicated digital circuit system-image filter, the design automation system employs the reconfigurable circuit architecture as the reconfigurable component of the EHW. The reconfigurable circuit architecture is inspired by the Cartesian Genetic Programming and the functional level evolution. To increase the speed of the hardware evolution, the whole evolvable hardware system which consists of evolution algorithm unit, fitness value calculation unit and reconfigurable unit are implemented by a commercial FPGA chip. The Celoxica RC1000 card which is fitted with a Xilinx Virtex xcv2000E FPGA chip is employed as the experiment platform. As the result, we conclude the terms of the synthesis report of the image filter design automation system and hardware evolution speed in the Celoxica RC1000 card. The evolved image filter is also compared with the conventional image filter form the point of filtered image quality.

기존의 레벨셋을 이용한 이미지 분할 방법은 화소값의 기울기를 이용하기 때문에 지역적 형태에 좌우되는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 본 논문에서는 평활한 구동력을 위하여 레벨 셋 함수와 새로운 보상 평활화 함수를 결합시키는 하이브리드 방법을 이용한 방법이 소개된다. 대부분의 경우에 3 교점을 가지고 있지 않다는 가정하에 보상함수를 얻는 방법을 대안으로 고려하였다. 보상함수의 주요 역할은 원보상 함수와 평균 보상함수의 차가 새로운 레벨셋 함수의 합리적인 구동력으로 소개될 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 하이브리드 방법은 기존 레벨셋을 이용한 방법의 단점을 최소화시키는 방법이다.

This paper reviews and compares three different methods for modeling incompressible and immiscible ternary fluid flows: the immersed boundary, level set, and phase-field methods. The immersed boundary method represents the moving interface by tracking the Lagrangian particles. In the level set method, an interface is defined implicitly by using the signed distance function, and its evolution is governed by a transport equation. In the phase-field method, the advective Cahn-Hilliard equation is used as the evolution equation, and its order parameter also implicitly defines an interface. Each method has its merits and demerits. We perform the several simulations under different conditions to examine the merits and demerits of each method. Based on the results, we determine the most suitable method depending on the specific modeling needs of different situations.

This paper presents a new variational framework for detecting and tracking moving objects in image sequence. Motion detection is performed using Level Set Model. The original frame is used to provide th moving object boundaries Then, the detection and the tracking problem are addressed in a common framework that employs a inward-outward curve evolution function. This function is minimized using a gradient decent method.

We have employed SNANA supernova analysis package to make YONSEI Supernova Catalogue 1, which contains distance modulus, light-curve shape parameters, and color or extinction values of each supernova. This database is used to study the dependence of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) luminosities on the host-galaxy morphologies. The redshift range of this catalogue is 0.010 < z < 1.555, and we use three light-curve fitters: SALT2, MLCS2k2 (Rv = 3.1), and MLCS2k2 (Rv = 1.7). We find a systematic difference in the Hubble residual (HR) of $0.1{\pm}0.031$ mag between E-S0 and Scd/Sd/Irr host-galaxies, and of $0.16{\pm}0.044$ mag between passive and star-burst host-galaxies. This difference is significant over the $3{\sigma}$ level. Considering the significant difference in the mean age of stellar population between these morphological types, the difference in the HR reported here suggests that the evolution effect of SNe Ia luminosity should be considered in the cosmological application of SNe Ia data.

Level set method is used for extracting a shape within an image. This method is based on the ideas developed by osher and sethian to model propagating solid/liquid interfaces moving with curvature-dependent speeds. In this paper, we propose the new generalized formulation and stopping function of evolution for more accurate extraction of shape. Our method shows good results in some cases compared with the conventional ones.

객체분할은 영상처리와 컴퓨터비전분야의 상당히 어려운 연구대상이다. 그레이스케일 영상에 대한 영상분할은 매우 많은 방법이 발표되었으며 다양한 영상특징과 처리방법이 제시되었다. 이러한 방법들은 대개 자연상태의 칼라 영상에 적용되기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 기하학적인 Active Contour 모델의 수정된 형태, 즉 거리정규화레벨셋(distance regularized level set evolution: DRLSE)을 이용한 방법을 제시하여 스피드 함수가 이러한 칼라요소를 반영하도록 하였으며 실험결과 정확성과 시간효율성에 있어서 우수한 결과를 보여주었다.

In the present work, topology optimization method using adaptive inner-front level set method is presented. In the conventional level set based topology optimization method, there exists an incapability for inner-front creation during optimization process. In this regard, as a new attempt to avoid and to overcome the limitation, an inner-front creation algorithm is proposed. In the inner-front creation algorithm, the strain energy density of a structure along with volume constraint is considered. Especially, to facilitate the inner-front creation process during the optimization process, the inner-front creation map which corresponds to the discrete valued function of strain energy density is constructed. In the evolution of the level set function during the optimization process, the least-squares finite element method (LSFEM) is employed. As an application to shell structures, the lightweight design of doubly curved shell and segmented mirror is carried out.
