Recently, Fire-proof performance of buildings becomes important to ensure safety. As a result, fire-proof paint is required for 3 hours. However, Experiments are only performed by standard KS F 2271 for estimation of fire-proof paint. Because there is no domestic estimation standard for performance of fire-proof paint as well. So estimation standard of fire-proof paint is needed to guarantee their performance for establishing quality system and to assure same performance for safety of people in the building from unpredicted fire accident. Owing to these reasons, we studied comparative estimation for quality performance of two kinds of fire-proof paint and bond performance.

This paper considers a nonparametric estimation of lifetime distribution for ramp stress tests with stress bound under intermittent inspection. The test items are inspected only at specified time points an⊂1 so the collected observations are grouped data. Under the cumulative exposure model, two nonparametric estimation methods of estimating the lifetime distribution at use condition stress are proposed for the situation which the time transformation function relating stress to lifetime is a type of the inverse power law. Each of items is initially put on test under ramp stress and then survivors are put on test under constant stress, where all failures in the Inspection interval are assumed to occur at the midi)oint or the endpoint of that interval. Two proposed estimators of quantile from grouped data consisting of the number of items failed in each inspection interval are numerically compared with the maximum likelihood estimator(MLE) based on Weibull distribution.

Motion estimation is a core part of most video compression systems since it directly affects the output video quality and the encoding time. The full search (FS) technique gives the highest visual quality but has the problem of a significant computational load. To solve this problem, we present in this paper a modified median (MMED) operation and advanced search strategies for fast motion estimation. The proposed MMED operation includes a temporally co-located motion vector (MV) to select an appropriate initial candidate. Moreover, we introduce a search procedure that reduces the number of thresholds and simplifies the early termination conditions for the determination of a final MV. The experimental results show that the proposed approach achieves substantial speedup compared with the conventional methods including the motion vector field adaptive search technique (MVFAST) and predictive MVFAST (PMVFAST). The proposed algorithm also improves the PSNR values by increasing the correlation between the MVs, compared with the FS method.

Effective traffic matrix estimation is the basis of efficient traffic engineering, and therefore, quality of service provision support in IP networks. In this study, traffic matrix estimation is investigated in IP networks and an Elman neural network-based traffic matrix inference (ENNTMI) method is proposed. In ENNTMI, the conventional Elman neural network is modified to capture the spatio-temporal correlations and the time-varying property, and certain side information is introduced to help estimate traffic matrix in a network accurately. The regular parameter is further introduced into the optimal equation. Thus, the highly ill-posed nature of traffic matrix estimation is overcome effectively and efficiently.

Motion estimation (ME) algorithms supporting quarter-pixel accuracy have been recently introduced to retain detailed motion information for high quality of video in the state-of-the-art video compression standard of H.264/AVC. Conventional sub-pixel ME algorithms in the spatial domain are faced with a common problem of computational complexity because of embedded interpolation schemes. This paper proposes a low-complexity sub-pixel motion estimation algorithm in the transform domain utilizing shifting matrix. Simulations are performed to compare the performances of spatial-domain ME algorithms and transform-domain ME algorithms in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and the number of bits per frame. Simulation results confirm that the transform-domain approach not only improves the video quality and the compression efficiency, but also remarkably alleviates the computational complexity, compared to the spatial-domain approach.

소프트웨어 프로젝트 관리과정의 활동에서 프로젝트 관리자의 중요한 임무는 소프트웨어의 크기와 인적 노력 등을 추정하는 것이다. 최근 소프트웨어 개발에 주로 사용되는 제 4세대 언어(4GL)와 데이터베이스 환경에서 개발되는 응용시스템에 대한 크기를 예측하는 모델은 불행하게도 연구가 미비한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 4GL로 개발되는 프로젝트 개발 초기 단계에서 수집한 메트릭스를 이용하여 소프트웨어 크기를 예측하는 추정 모델을 제안 한다. 제안된 방법은 상대오차(MRE)를 최소화시키는 방법으로 개발 초기과정에서 얻어지는 측도들의 이상치에 덜 민감한 특성을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서 제안된 모델에 대하여 적합도와 예측력의 성능을 테스트하기 위하여 데이터 셀을 I과 II 2개로 나누어 실험하였다. 실험결과, 추정된 모델의 적합도와 예측력은 데이터 셀 I과 II 모두에서 제안된 MRE 추정방법이 전통적인 방법 LS, RLS보다 우수하게 나타났다.

비디오 부호화 기법에서 압축률 및 화질을 결정하는 중요한 부분인 움직임 예측 및 보상(motion estimation and compensation)의 성능을 개선하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 가장 기본적인 움직임 예측 기법인 전역 탐색 방법은 가장 좋은 화질을 보이지만, 현재 프레임의 각 블록과 가장 유사한 블록을 찾기 위하여 탐색영역(search area)내의 모든 점에 대해 탐색을 수행하므로 그 계산량이 매우 많게 된다. 따라서 좋은 화질을 유지하면서 계산량을 낮추기 위한 많은 고속 알고리즘이 제안되었는데, MPEG-4 표준에 채택된 PMVFAST는 움직임 벡터 간의 상관도를 이용하여 계산량을 낮추면서도 전역 탐색 기법에 근접한 화질을 보인다. 본 논문에서는 움직임 벡터의 예측을 위하여 중간값(median) 계산법에 의한 새로운 방법을 제안하고, 이를 이용하여 움직임 예측의 계산량을 획기적으로 줄일 수 있음을 보인다. 실험결과 제안한 알고리즘은 PMVFAST보다 빠르면서도 전역 탐색 기법보다 높은 평균 PNSR을 보인다.

Direct writing technology on the silicon wafer surface is used to reduce the size of the chip as the miniature trend in electronic circuit. In order to improve the productivity and efficiency, the real time quality estimation is very important in each semiconductor process. In laser marking, marking quality is determined by readability which is dependant on the contrast of surface, the line width, and the melting depth. Many researchers have tried to find theoretical and numerical estimation models fur groove geometry. However, these models are limited to be applied to the real system. In this study, the estimation system for the line width during the laser marking was proposed by process monitoring method. The light intensity emitted by plasma which is produced when irradiating the laser to the silicon wafer was measured using the optical sensor. Because the laser marking is too fast to measure with external sensor, we build up the coaxial monitoring system. Analysis for the correlation between the acquired signals and the line width according to the change of laser power was carried out. Also, we developed the models enabling the estimation of line width of the laser marking through the statistical regression models and may see that their estimating performances were excellent.

In the laser surface hardening process the geometrical parameters, especially the depth, of the hardened layer are utilized to assess the integrity of the hardening layer quality. Monitoring of this geometrical parameter ofr on-line process control as well as for on-line quality evaluation, however, is an extremely difficult problem because the hardening layer is formed beneath a material surface. Moreover, the uncertainties in monitoring the depth can be raised by the inevitable use of a surface coating to enhance the processing efficiency and the insufficient knowledge on the effects of coating materials and its thicknesses. The paper describes the extimation results using neural network to estimate the hardening layer depth from measured surface temperanture and process variables (laser beam power and feeding velocity) under various situations. To evaluate the effec- tiveness of the measured temperature in estimating the harding layer depth, estimation was performed with or without temperature informations. Also to investigate the effects of coating thickness variations in the real industry situations, in which the coating thickness cannot be controlled uniform with good precision, estimation was done over only uniformly coated specimen or various thickness-coated specimens. A series of hardening experiments were performed to find the relationships between the hardening layer depth, temperature and process variables. The estimation results show the temperature informations greatly improve the estimation accuracy over various thickness-coated specimens.

In resistance spot welding process, size of molten nuggest have been utilized to assess the integrity of the weld quality. However real-time monitoring of the nugget size is an extremely difficult problem. This paper describes the design of an artificial neural networks(ANN) estimator to predict the nugget size for on-line use of weld quality monitoring. The main task of the ANN estimator is to realize the mapping characteristics from the sampled dynamic resistance signal to the actual negget size through training. The structure of the ANN estimator including the number of hidden layers and nodes in a layer is determined by an estimation error analysis. A series of welding experiments are performed to assess the performance of the ANN estimator. The results are quite promissing in that real-time estimation of the invisible nugget size can be achieved by analyzing the dynamic resistance signal without any conventional destructive testing of welds.
