In this paper we propose new image coding using wavelet transform. The new method constructs hierarchical bit plane and progressively transports each bit plane. The proposed algorithms not only supports multi-resolution, dividing original image into special band and various resolution but also reduces blocking effects that come int JPEG. In encoding time this algorithm considers each band characters and priority of transport order, and applies to fast search of image.

대표적인 수면장애로 수면 무호흡증과 코골이가 있는데 수면다원검사를 통해 진단할 수 있다. 그러나 수면다원검사는 비용적, 공간적, 시간적 제약이 수반되기 때문에 이를 해결하려는 연구가 대두되고 있다. 수면장애와 그 요인을 검출하기 위해 가속도센서, 소음센서, 온도센서, 습도센서로 구성된 측정 장치에서 획득한 데이터와 건강, 운동, 생활습관 데이터를 활용하여 어떤 요인에 의해 수면장애의 정도가 악화되고 개선되는지를 사용자에게 제공하는 의사결정 지원시스템을 설계한다. 또한 홈 게이트웨이와 뷰어 역할에 스마트 폰을 사용하여 일반인이 보다 쉽게 측정하고 측정결과와 추론결과를 지속적으로 확인할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다.

In this paper we propose a new pre-processing algorithm applied to multi-view video coding using color compensation algorithm based on image features. Multi-view images have a difference between neighboring frames according to illumination and different camera characteristics. To compensate this color difference, first we model the characteristics of cameras based on frame's feature from each camera and then correct the color difference. To extract corresponding features from each frame, we use Harris corner detection algorithm and characteristic coefficients used in the model is estimated by using Gauss-Newton algorithm. In this algorithm, we compensate RGB components of target images, separately from the reference image. The experimental results with many test images show that the proposed algorithm peformed better than the histogram based algorithm as much as 14 % of bit reduction and 0.5 dB ~ 0.8dB of PSNR enhancement.

In this paper, we proposed the compression technique of the video data using SPIHT(set partitioning in hierarchical trees) based on wavelet and the multi-stream delivery method for best-effort service as fully utilizing the clients bandwidth over the current Internet. The experiment shows that the proposed method provides about 1.5dB better picture quality without block effects than DCT(discrete consine transform) based coding schemes at the same bit rates because of using the wavelet video coder. In addition, this technique implements the multi-stream transmission based on TCP(transmission control protocol). Thus, it is provided with the best-efforts service which is robust to the network jitter problem, and maximally utilizes the bandwidth of the client's.

An important issue of supporting multi-users with diverse quality-of-service (QoS) requirements over wireless networks is how to optimize the systematic scheduling by intelligently utilizing the available network resource while, at the same time, to meet each communication service QoS requirement. In this work, we study the problem of a variety of communication services over multi-media heterogeneous cognitive OFDM system. We first divide the communication services into two parts. Multimedia applications such as broadband voice transmission and real-time video streaming are very delay-sensitive (DS) and need guaranteed throughput. On the other side, services like file transmission and email service are relatively delay tolerant (DT) so varying-rate transmission is acceptable. Then, we formulate the scheduling as a convex optimization problem, and propose low complexity distributed solutions by jointly considering channel assignment, bit allocation, and power allocation. Unlike prior works that do not care computational complexity. Furthermore, we propose the FAASA (Fairness Assured Adaptive Sub-carrier Allocation) algorithm for both DS and DT users, which is a dynamic sub-carrier allocation algorithm in order to maximize throughput while taking into account fairness. We provide extensive simulation results which demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed schemes.

In a speech coding system using excitation source of voiced and unvoiced, it would be a distortion of speech waveform in case of exist a voiced and an unvoiced consonants in a frame. To solve this problem, this paper present a method of LMS-MPC uses individual pitch and LMS(Least Mean Square). I evaluate the MPC and LMS-MPC using LMS. As a result, SNRseg of LMS-MPC was improved 1.5dB for female voice and 1.3dB for male voice respectively. Compared to the MPC, SNRseg of LMS-MPC has been improved that I was able to control the distortion of the speech waveform finally. And so, I expect to be able to this method for cellular phone and smart phone using excitation source of low bit rate.

A network processor (NP) is an application-specific instruction-set processor for fast and efficient packet processing. There are many issues in compiler's code generation and optimization due to NP's hardware constraints and special hardware support. In this paper, we describe in detail how to resolve the issues. Our compiler was developed on LLVM 3.0 and the NP target was our in-house network processor which consists of 32 64-bit RISC processors and supports multi-context with special hardware structures. Our compiler incurs only 9.36% code size overhead over hand-written code while satisfying QoS, and the generated code was tested on a real packet processing hardware, called S20 for code verification and performance evaluation.

The DSD(Direct Stream Digital) encoder, which is a standard for SACD(Super Audio Compact Disc) proposed by Sony and philips, use 1 bit representation with a sampling frequency of 2.8224 MHz (64 $\times$ 44.1 kHz). For multi-rate PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) input like as 48/96/192 kHz, a external sample-rate converter is necessary to the DSD encoder. This paper has been proposed a digital filter structure composed of sample-rate converter and interpolation filter for the DSD encoder with multi-rate (48/96/192 kHz) PCM input. without a external sample-rate converter.

This paper presents a design experience of a control language for coordination of a multi-robot system. To effectively program job commands, a Petrinet-type Graphical Robot Language(PGRL) is proposed, where some functions, such as concurrency and synchronization, for coordination among tasks can be easily programmed.In our system, the proposed task commands of PGRL are implemented by employing formal model languages, which are composed of three modules, sensory, data handling, and action module. It is expected that by using our proposed PGRL and formal languages, one can easily describe a job or task, and hence can effectively operate a complex real-time and concurrent system. The control system is being implemented by using VME-based 32-bit microprocessor boards for supervisory, each module controller(arm, hand, leg, sensor data processing module) and a real time multi-tasking operating system(VxWorks).
