  • Symmetry is one of the important structural properties of shapes both in perceptual psychology and in computer vision. Recently, a number of automatic symmetry finding algorithms have been reported. Among them, the algorithm based on the use of principal axes of objects is the most general and practical. It is, however, of no use when shapes concerned have some asymmetry. Asymmetric shapes which make us associate with certain kinds of symmetry are practically important and they are called shapes with potential symmetry in this paper. The algorithm we have already proposed can cope with those shapes having potential axial symmetry. The algorithm employs a reflected image of the original and a certain evaluation function. In the former paper, areal minimization was employed for the evaluation function and it yielded satisfactory experimental results. However, it could not cope with those shapes which have larger asymmetry. In this paper, we propose the employment of variance as an alternative evaluation index with respect to the difference image between the reflected and the original shape. The technique is examined its performance by real video images as well as synthetic data. Experimental results are shown and discussion is given.

  • Spinal deformity is a serious disease especially for teenagers and it is desirable for school children to be checked possible spinal deformity by moire photographic inspection method. The moire images of children's backs are visually inspected by doctors, which may cause misjudge because of a large amount of data they have to examine. A technique is proposed in this paper for automating this inspection by computer. Two characteristic axes, a potential symmetry axis approximating the human middle line and a principal axis representing the direction of a moire pattern are employed. Two principal axes are extracted locally on a back and their gradients against the potential symmetry axis are calculated. These gradients compose a 2D feature space and a linear discriminant function (LDF) is defined there which separates normal cases from suspicious cases. The LDF defined by 40 training, data was employed in the experiment to examine 40 test data and 77.5% of them were classified correctly. This amounts to 88.8% if the training data is included.

  • 이 연구는 아마존 열대우림 지역에서 획득된 ALOS PALSAR 자료로부터 HH-편파 와 HV-편파 및 VV-편파와 VH-편파 간의 상관계수를 구하였으며, 이로부터 다중편파 SAR의 반사대칭(Reflection Symmetry) 가정에 대한 분석결과를 보고한다. 반사대칭 가정은 다중편파 SAR의 균질한 자연 산란체에서 HH-편파와 HV-편파 및 VV-편파와 VH-편파는 서로 완전 독립적이며 0의 상관계수를 갖는다는 것으로, 이는 다중편파 SAR의 필수적인 cross-talk 보정 계수 획득과정뿐만 아니라 다중편파 SAR 신호의 3-성분 분석법 등의 활용과정에서 흔히 적용되는 가정이다. 특히 아마존 열대우림 지역은 다중편파 SAR의 반사대칭성 보정에 대표적으로 활용되고 있는 국제적 기준분석 지역이다. 분석결과 가정과는 달리 반사대칭 쌍들 간의 상관계수는 0.018에서 0.097의 범위를 나타냈으며, 이는 동종편파와 이종편파 신호 간에 완전 독립적이지 못하며 무시할 수 없을 정도의 상관관계가 존재한다는 것을 지시하였다. 따라서 이와 같은 0이 아닌 상관계수는 향후 국내 다중편파 SAR 검 보정 계수 결정 및 SAR 다중편파 활용과정에서 오차로 작용할 수 있다는 점이 고려되어야 한다.

  • This paper presents an algorithm capable of detecting leading vehicles using a forward-looking camera. In fact, the accurate measurements of the contact locations of vehicles with road surface are prerequisites for the intelligent vehicle technologies based on a monocular vision. Relying on multistage processing of relevant edge features to the hypothesis generation of a vehicle, the proposed algorithm creates candidate positions being the left and right boundaries of vehicles, and searches for pairs to be vehicle boundaries from the potential positions by evaluating horizontal symmetry. The proposed algorithm is proven to be successful by experiments performed on images acquired by a moving vehicle.

  • We show the existence of ground state and orbital stability of standing waves of nonlinear $Schr{\ddot{o}}dinger$ equations with singular linear potential and essentially mass-subcritical power type nonlinearity. For this purpose we establish the existence of ground state in $H^1$. We do not assume symmetry or monotonicity. We also consider local and global well-posedness of Strichartz solutions of energy-subcritical equations. We improve the range of inhomogeneous coefficient in [5, 12] slightly in 3 dimensions.

  • The Smoluchowski equation with a step potential is solved in one-dimensional case and three-dimensional case with spherical symmetry. Exact analytic expressions for the solution and the remaining probability are obtained in one-dimensional case for the reflecting boundary condition and the long time behavior of the remaining probability is compared with the earlier work. In three-dimensional case, only the long time behavior is evaluated. More general case with the radiation boundary condition is also investigated and the results are shown to approach correct limits of the reflecting boundary condition.

  • $Li^+$ ion complex of azacrown ether with restricted motion of freedom and pseudo-bilateral symmetry was studied by infrared spectroscopy, which has shown simplified and broadened vibrational features. The C=O and N-H stretching bands, in particular, shows anomalous broadening nearly ${\sim}50\;cm^{-1}$. The density functional calculation at the level of BP86/6-31+$G^{**}$ shows that $Li^+$ ion is trapped and rather free to move around inside the cavity, as much as about $0.70\;{\AA}$. Through the relocation of $Li^+$ ion inside the cavity, the conformational changes would occur rapidly in its symmetry $C_1\;{\rightleftarrows}\;C_2\;{\rightleftarrows}\;C_1$$. The potential barrier was obtained to be merely ~2.2 kJ/mol for $C_1\;{\rightarrow}\;C_2$. During this conformational alteration, the amide backbone twists concurrently its dihedral angle side to side about up to ${\pm}3$ degree. Selected vibrational modes were interpreted in terms of the force constant variations of local symmetry coordinates between conformations in the framework of $C_1\;{\rightleftarrows}\;C_2\;{\rightleftarrows}\;C_1$.

  • In this paper, we present a two-stage vision-based approach to detect multi views of pedestrian in road scene images. The first stage is HG (Hypothesis Generation), in which potential pedestrian are hypothesized. During the hypothesis generation step, we use a vertical, horizontal edge map, and different colors between road background and pedestrian's clothes to determine the leg position of pedestrian, then a novel symmetry peaks processing is performed to define how many pedestrians is covered in one potential candidate region. Finally, the real candidate region where pedestrian exists will be constructed. The second stage is HV (Hypothesis Verification). In this stage, all hypotheses are verified by Support Vector Machine for classification, which is robust for multi views of pedestrian detection and recognition problems.

  • We present evolutionary models of rotating self-gravitating systems (e.g. globular clusters, galaxy cores). These models are characterized by the presence of an initial axi-symmetry due to rotation. Central black hole seeds are included in our models, and black hole growth due to the consumption of stellar matter is simulated until the central potential dominates the kinematics of the core. Our goal is to study the long-term evolution (Gyr) of relaxed dense stellar systems which deviate from spherical symmetry, and their morphology and final kinematics. With this purpose in mind, we developed a 2D Fokker-Planck analytical code, and confirmed its results using detailed N-Body simulations, applying a high performance code developed for GPU machines. We conclude that the initial rotation significantly modifies the shape and lifetime of these systems, and cannot be neglected in the study of the evolution of globular clusters, and the galaxy itself. Our models give a constraint for the final intermediate black hole masses expected to be present in globular clusters.

  • Utilizing the three-dimensional Snyder-Mitchell model with a PT-symmetric potential, we study the influence of PT symmetry on beam propagation in strongly nonlocal nonlinear media. The complex Coulomb potential is used as the PT-symmetric potential. A localized spatiotemporal accessible soliton solution of the model is obtained. Specific values of the modulation depth for different soliton parameters are discussed. Our results reveal that in these media the localized solitons can exist in various shapes, such as single-layer and multi-layer disk-shaped structures, as well as vortex-ring and necklace patterns.
