The sintering and renitridation behaviors of ultrafine Si3N4 powder compacts, which were heavily oxidized and/or free-Si rich, were investigated with particular attentiion to microstructures. The specimens were heated without restoring to additives and pressure by controlling heating process attained a Xe image apparatus. The effect of particle size, free-Si contents, decomposition and renitridation, were investigated. When fired to 1$650^{\circ}C$ within 15 sec and then immediately held at 135$0^{\circ}C$ for 10min N2 atmosphere, significant densification took place in the limited region, in addition to decreasing oxygen contents to less than 0.3wt%. On the other hand, specimens decomposed due to overheating at the initial stage were rapidly renitridated at the relatively lower temperature of the holding stage. And, then, the activation energy for the renitridation was calculated to be 49kcal/mole.

본 논문에서는 특이값 분해(Singular Value Decomposition)을 이용하여 이미지의 주파수 영역 내에 정보를 은닉하는 방법을 제시한다. 이미지를 주파수 영역으로 변환하기 위하여 블록 단위로 이산 코사인 변환(Discrete Cosine Transform)을 수행한다. 이후 인접한 네 블록의 DC 값들로 구성된 행렬의 특이값을 은닉하고자 하는 정보에 따라 변환한다. 원래의 DC 값은 정보에 따라 변환된 DC 값으로 대체되고 역 이산 코사인 변환(Inverse Discrete Cosine Transform)을 수행하여 정보가 은닉된 이미지를 얻는다. 제안하는 알고리즘의 성능을 분석하기 위해 JPEG(Joint Photographic Coding Experts Group), 선명화(Sharpening), 히스토그램 등화(Histogram Equalization)와 같이 다양한 이미지 변화를 거친 후, 은닉된 정보의 신뢰도를 비교한다.

This article describes 3 dimensional (3D) face recognition system using histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) based on face curvature. The surface curvatures in the face contain the most important personal feature information. In this paper, 3D face images are recognized by the face components: cheek, eyes, mouth, and nose. For the proposed approach, the first step uses the face curvatures which present the facial features for 3D face images, after normalization using the singular value decomposition (SVD). Fisherface method is then applied to each component curvature face. The reason for adapting the Fisherface method maintains the surface attribute for the face curvature, even though it can generate reduced image dimension. And histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) descriptor is one of the state-of-art methods which have been shown to significantly outperform the existing feature set for several objects detection and recognition. In the last step, the linear discriminant analysis is explained for each component. The experimental results showed that the proposed approach leads to higher detection accuracy rate than other methods.

Tensor with missing or incomplete values is a ubiquitous problem in various fields such as biomedical signal processing, image processing, and social network analysis. In this paper, we considered how to reconstruct a dataset with missing values by using tensor form which is called tensor completion process. We applied Tucker factorization to solve tensor completion which was built base on optimization problem. We formulated the optimization objective function using components of Tucker model after decomposing. The weighted least square matric contained only known values of the tensor with low rank in its modes. A first order optimization method, namely Nonlinear Conjugated Gradient, was applied to solve the optimization problem. We demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method in EEG signals with about 70% missing entries compared to other algorithms. The relative error was proposed to compare the difference between original tensor and the process output.

본 연구는 전정색(panchromatic) 고해상도 위성영상을 이용하여 산화피해림과 비산화림을 대상으로 수종별로 구분하여 조사하였다. 제안된 방법은 회색단계 공발생 행렬(Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix, GLCM)을 통하여 생성된 질감 영상(textural images)과 웨이블릿 분해 영상(wavelet decomposition images)의 융합을 실시하여 질감 영상에서 추출될 수 있는 정보와 웨이블릿 분해를 통해 얻을 수 있는 정보를 획득하고자 하였다. 그 결과로 동일 수종을 형성하는 임반이나 산화피해 정도가 유사한 산림의 경우 영상의 밝기값의 분포가 일정한 범위 내에서 형성되어 수종 분류 및 산화피해 등급의 구분이 가능했으나, 영상 내 경계효과(edge effect) 현상은 일부 영상에서 나타났다.

A motion picture compression scheme using subband coding with motion compensation is presneted in this paper. A hierarchical subband decomposition is used to split the image signal into 10 subbands with a 3-layer pyramid structure and motion compensation is used in each band. However, in this case, motion vector information is drastically increased; therefore, initial motion vectors are estimated in the highest pyramid and motion vectors are refined using the reconsructed subband signal in each layer. Simulation results show that the proposed method compares favorably in terms of prediction error energy and side informatio with methods requiring additional information. Images recostructed from the proposed method show good quality compared to those reconstructed using blockwise DCT.

This paper deals with face detection and recognition using ellipsodal information and wavelet packet analysis. We proposed two methods. First, Face detection method uses general ellipsodal information of human face contour and we find eye position on wavelet transformed face images A novel method for recognition of views of human faces under roughly constant illumination is presented. Second, The proposed Face recognition scheme is based on the analysis of a wavelet packet decomposition of the face images. Each face image is first located and then, described by a subset of band filtered images containing wavelet coefficients. From these wavelet coefficients, which characterize the face texture, the Euclidian distance can be used in order to classify the face feature vectors into person classes. Experimental results are presented using images from the FERET and the MIT FACES databases. The efficiency of the proposed approach is analyzed according to the FERET evaluation procedure and by comparing our results with those obtained using the well-known Eigenfaces method. The proposed system achieved an rate of 97％(MIT data), 95.8％(FERET databace)

The wavelet analysis technique is applied in the spectral domain to efficiently represent the multi-scale features of the impedance matrices. In this scheme, the 2-D quadtree decomposition (applying the wavelet transform to only the part of the matrix) method often used in image processing area is applied for a sparse moment matrix. CG(Conjugate-Gradient) method is also applied for saving memory and computation time of wavelet transformed moment matrix. Numerical examples show that for rectangular cylinder case the non-zero elements of the transformed moment matrix grows only as O($N^{1.6}$).

최근에 텍스트 압축에 뛰어난 성능을 가지는 블록 정렬 알고리즘인 BW변환 (Burrows-Wheeler Transform)이 소개되었다. 그러나 영상 압축에 BW변환을 직접 적용하면 영상과 텍스트가 갖는 상관성이 서로 다르기 때문에 만족할 만한 압축효과를 기대할 수 없게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 가역의 L-SSKF(Lossless Symmetric Short Kernel Filter)를 사용한 계층적 대역분할로 영상화소 사이의 상관성을 줄인 후 BW변환을 하는 방법과 GAP(Gradient Adjusted Prediction)를 사용하여 LL 대역에 많이 분포된 상관성을 줄인 후 BW변환을 하는 방법을 제안한다. 실험결과 제안한 방법이 기존의 무손실 JPEG 표준안과 LZ 기반의 압축방법(PKZIP) 등에 비해 압축성능이 개선됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

We present the detailed image decomposition of Hubble Space Telescope archival images for 235 nearby (z < 0.35) unobscured type 1 AGNs. It allows us to perform robust measurements of host galaxy properties and AGN luminosity contribution. We examine how the host properties correlate with AGN properties. Broad line type 1 and radio-loud AGNs are hosted preferentially by early type galaxies. Narrow line type 1 AGNs show a low fraction of tidal interaction, that might suggest the secular evolution may play an important role for triggering AGN activity, while the fraction of merging hosts is rather higher in luminous AGNs. We compare the nucleus luminosity and bulge luminosity and find that either our sample might have a smaller zero point in the M(BH)-L(bulge) relation (i.e. less massive black hole at a given bulge luminosity) relation compared to the normal galaxies or Eddington ratio of our sample could be systematically overestimated.
