A robotically assisted field material handling system designed for loading and unloading of a planar pallet with a forklift in unstructured field environment is presented. The system uses combined acoustic/visual sensing data to define the position/orientation of the pallet and to determine the specific locations of the two slots of the pallet, so that the forklift can move close to the slot and engage it for transport. In order to reduce the complexity of the material handling operation, we have developed a method based on the integration of 2-D range data of Poraloid ultrasonic sensor along with 2-D visual data of an optical camera. Data obtained from the two separate sources complements each other and is used in an efficient algorithm to control this robotically assisted field material handling system . Range data obtained from two linear scannings is used to determine the pan and tilt angles of a pallet using least mean square method. Then 2-D visual data is used to determine the swing angle and engagement location of a pallet by using edge detection and Hough transform techniques. The limitations of the pan and tilt orientation to be determined arc discussed. The system developed is evaluated through the hardware and software implementation. The experimental results are presented.

In this paper, we propose a new CL-OSTBC (Closed Loop Orthogonal Space-Time Block Code) scheme for four transmit antennas and compare the scheme with existing closed loop schemes on the performance of BER (Bit Error Rate). In the proposed scheme, a transmitter receives channel feedback information and combines modulated symbols by the symbol combiner, and transmits the symbols encoded by the space-time block encoder. As a result, the proposed scheme achieves full-rate and maximal channel gains by more efficient utilization of the channel feedback information. Moreover, the scheme can reduce computation complexity by using a linear detector. Simulation results on the BER performance show that the proposed CL-OSTBC scheme outperforms existing CL-OSTBC schemes.

Because output of multi-code CDMA system adapted high speed data transmission becoming multi-level system use linear amplifier in output stage and complex output signal. Therefore, Multi-Code CDMA system has shortcoming of high price, high complexity etc.. Binary CDMA technology that allow fetters in existing CDMA technology to supplement this shortcoming proposed. In binary CDMA system When correlator process high speed data, bottle-neck phenomenon is happened on synchronization acquisition process, it is very important parameter. Because existent correlator must there be advantage that power consumption is small but flow addition of several stages to receive correlation's value, the processing speed has disadvantage because the operation amount is much. Therefore in this paper, proposed correlator has characteristic such as data is able to high speed processing, chip area is independent and power consumption is constant in structure in binary CDMA system.

An intuitive understanding of the dynamic pattern generation in asymmetric networks may be considered an essential component in developing models for the dynamic information processing. It has been reported that the neural network with cyclic connections generates multiple limit cycles. The dynamics of discrete time network with cyclic connections has been investigated intensively. However, the dynamics of a cyclic connection neural network in continuous-time has not been well-known due to the considerable complexity involved in its calculation. In this paper, the dynamic behavior of a continuous-time cyclic connection neural network, in which each neuron is connected only to its nearest neurons with binary synaptic weights of ${\pm}1$, has been investigated. Furthermore, the dynamics and stability of the network have been analyzed using a piece-wise linear approximation.

In the network coding, throughput can be increased by allowing the transformation of the received data at the intermediate nodes. However, the adversary can obtain more information at the intermediate nodes and make troubles for decoding of transmitted data at the sink nodes by modifying transmitted data at the compromised nodes. In order to resist the adversary activities, various information theoretic or cryptographic secure network coding schemes are proposed. Recently, a secure network coding based on the cryptographic hash function can be used at the random network coding. However, because of the computational resource requirement for cryptographic hash functions, networks with limited computational resources such as sensor nodes have difficulties to use the cryptographic solution. In this paper, we propose a new secure network coding scheme which uses linear transformations and table lookup and safely transmits n-1 packets at the random network coding under the assumption that the adversary can eavesdrop at most n-1 nodes. It is shown that the proposed scheme is an all-or-nothing transform (AONT) and weakly secure network coding in the information theory.

In spite of many studies on statistical model for pattern identifications (PIs), little attention has been paid to the complexity of pattern diagnosis processed by oriental physicians. The aim of this study is to develop a statistical diagnostic model which discriminates four PIs using multiple indicators in stroke. Clinical data were collected from 981 stroke patients and 516 data of which PIs were agreed by two independent physicians were included. Discriminant analysis was carried out using clinical indicators such as symptoms and signs which referred to pattern diagnosis, and applied to validation samples which contained all symptoms and signs manifested. Four Fischer's linear discriminant models were derived and their accuracy and prediction rates were 93.2% and 80.43%, respectively. It is important to consider the pattern diagnosis processed by oriental physicians in developing statistical model for PIs. The discriminant model developed in this study using multiple indicators is valid, and can be used in the clinical fields.

The underwater transients signals contain the characteristics of complexity, time varying, nonlinear, and short duration. So it is very hard to model for these signals with reference patterns. In this paper we separate the whole length of signals into some short duration of constant length with overlapping frame by frame. The 20th LPC(Linear Predictive Coding) coefficients are extracted from the original signals using Durbin algorithm and applied to neural network. The 65% of whole signals were learned and 35% of the signals were tested in the neural network with two hidden layers. The types of the whales for sound classification are Blue whale, Dulsae whale, Gray whale, Humpback whale, Minke whale, and Northern Right whale. Finally, we could obtain more than 83% of classification rate from the test signals.

The purpose of this study is to identify the composition elements and processes of the rock cycle that pre-service teachers in earth science field understand. Second-year students majoring in earth science were selected as research objects, all of whom attended teacher's university located in the southern region. The methods of arranging the composition elements of the rock cycle in a structured way and displaying the cycle direction through the arrow and describing the cycle processes in detail were applied. Pre-service teachers recognized 5 composition elements: magma, igneous rocks, sediments, sedimentary rocks, metamorphic rocks of the rock cycle and cycle processes was represented into 20 branches. The cycle type was analyzed by four criteria: linear, triangular, circular, complex, some pre-teachers did not complete the loop of the cycle or some showed incomplete understanding of the cycle structure simply displayed in one direction. The rock cycle is an important theme of the earth system education characterized by dynamism and complexity.

Given a video frame in terms of its 8${\times}$8 block-DCT coefncients, we wish to obtain a downsized or upsized version of this Dame also in terms of 8${\times}$8 block DCT coefficients. The DCT being a linear unitary transform is distributive over matrix multiplication. This fact has been used for downsampling video frames in the DCT domains in Dugad's, Mukherjee's, and Park's methods. The downsampling and upsampling schemes combined together preserve all the low-frequency DCT coefficients of the original image. This implies tremendous savings for coding the difference between the original frame (unsampled image) and its prediction (the upsampled image).This is desirable for many applications based on scalable encoding of video. In this paper, we extend the earlier works to various DCT sizes, when we downsample and then upsample of an image by a factor of two. Through experiment, we could improve the PSM values whenever we increase the DCT block size. However, because the complexity will be also increase, we can say there is a tradeoff. The experiment result would provide important data for developing fast algorithms of compressed-domain image/video resizing.
