Common-path interferometers are widely used for endoscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT) because an arbitrary arm length can be chosen for the endoscopic imaging probe. However, the scheme suffers from the limited range of the sample position distance from the end of the imaging probe because the position between the reference reflector and the sample is limited by the optical path-length difference (OPD) to induce an interference signal. In this study, we developed a novel method for compensating the arbitrary sample position in common-path swept-source OCT by adding an extra Mach-Zehnder interferometer in the post-path of the interfered optical signal. Theoretical analysis and an experimental demonstration of imaging depth tuning for the flexible sample position of an endoscopic OCT image are discussed. After post-tuning of sample position distance, the positioning limitation between the reference reflector and the sample can be solved for various sample positions over a range of 26 mm for the cross-sectional images of a fish eye sample.

PURPOSES : This investigational survey is to observe a proper spatial aggregation method for path travel time estimation using the hi-pass DSRC system. METHODS : The links which connect the nodes of section detectors location are used for path travel time estimation traditionally. It makes some problem such as increasing accumulation errors and processing times. In this background, the new links composition methods for spatial aggregation are considered by using some types of nodes as IC, JC, RSE combination. Path travel times estimated by new aggregation methods are compared with PBM travel times by MAE, MAPE and statistical hypothesis tests. RESULTS : The results of minimum sample size and missing rate for 5 minutes aggregation interval are satisfied except for JC link path travel time in Seoul TG~Kuemho JC. Thus, it was additionally observed for minimum sample size satisfaction. In 15, 30 minutes and 1 hour aggregation intervals, all conditions are satisfied by the minimum sample size criteria. For accuracy test and statistical hypothesis test, it has been proved that RSE, Conzone, IC, JC links have equivalent errors and statistical characteristics. CONCLUSIONS : There are some errors between the PBM and the LBM methods that come from dropping vehicles by rest areas. Consequently, this survey result means each of links compositions are available for the estimation of path travel time when PBM vehicles are missed.

This paper presents a method to model the path loss characteristics in microwave urban line-of-sight (LOS) propagation. We propose new upper- and lower-bound models for the LOS path loss using fuzzy linear regression (FLR). The spread of upper- and lower-bound of FLR depends on max and min value of a sample path loss data while the conventional upper- and lower-bound models, the spread of the bound intervals are fixed and do not depend on the sample path loss data. Comparison of our models to conventional upper- and lower-bound models indicate that improvements in accuracy over the conventional models are achieved.

Nesting and cutting path optimization have a great effect on the improvement of productivity in many industries such as shipbuilding, automotive, clothing, and so on. However, few researches have been carried out for the optimization of a cutting path algorithm. This study proposed a new method for cutting optimization using gravity center of cutting pieces and a genetic algorithm. The proposed method was tested for a sample plate including many different shapes of cutting pieces and compared to 2 other conventional methods. The test results showed that the new method had the shortest cutting path and the best effectiveness among the 3 methods.

This paper explores a new approach for modeling of decision-making problems that involve uncertain, time-dependent and sequence-dependent processes which can be applied to semiconductor industry. In the proposed approach, which is based on probability theory, approximate sample paths are required to be specified by probability and statistic characteristics. Completely specified sample paths are seen to be elementary and fundamental outcomes of the related experiment. The proposed approach is suitable for modeling real processes more accurately. A case study is applied to a single item production planning problem with continuous and uncertain demand and the solution obtained by the approximate path specification method shows less computational efforts and practically desirable features. The application possibility and general plan of the proposed approach in semiconductor manufacturing process is also described in the paper.

The motion of organelles inside a cell is an important intrinsic indicator for assessing cell physiology and tissue viability. Dynamic contrast full-field optical coherence tomography (D-FFOCT) is a promising imaging technology that can visualize intracellular movements using the variance of temporal interference signals caused by biological motions. However, double-path interferometry in D-FFOCT can be highly vulnerable to surrounding noise, which may cause turbulence in the interference signals, contaminating the sample dynamics. Therefore, we propose a method for stabilized D-FFOCT imaging in noisy environments by using common-path interferometry in D-FFOCT. A comparative study shows that D-FFOCT with the proposed method achieves stable dynamic contrast imaging of a scattering phantom in motion that is over tenfold more noise-insensitive compared to the conventional one, and thus this imaging capability can provide cleaner motion contrast images. With the proposed approach, the intracellular dynamics of biological samples are imaged and monitored.

DSRC의 원래 목적은 통행료 수집이었으나, 최근 한국도로공사는 DSRC 기반의 하이패스시스템을 교통정보체계에 응용하여 노변기지국간의 링크통행시간과 기 종점의 경로통행시간을 수집하는데 활용하고 있다. 기 종점을 통과한 차량을 통해 경로통행시간을 추정하는 경로기반방식(PBM: Path-based Method)은 수집표본수가 적고, 통과차량이 없을 경우 경로통행시간을 산출할 수 없는 문제점이 있는바, 링크기반방식(LBM: Link-based Method)을 제시하였다. 이는 실제 차량 궤적과 상이할 수 있는 문제점이 있으나 본 연구에서는 하이패스 DSRC 자료의 특성을 고려한 고속도로 경로통행시간 추정 모형 개발을 목적으로 개발되었다. LBM과 PBM의 경로통행시간 비교를 시도하였고, 그 결과 MAPE가 3% 이내로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때 LBM을 통해 신뢰성 있는 경로통행시간을 추정할 수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 약간의 한계와 장래연구항목에 대해서도 제시하였다.

Digital holographic microscopy allows optical path difference measurement. Optical path difference depends on the both refractive index and morphology of sample. We developed a dual-wavelength in-line digital holographic microscope that can measure simultaneously the refractive index and morphology of a sample, providing highly precise three-dimensional information. Here we propose theoretical and experimental methods for dual-wavelength in-line digital holographic microscopy. The measured data were reasonable, although there was data error. By improving the experimental method, we could measure the refractive index more precisely and obtain more accurate three-dimensional information on samples.

디지털 홀로그래피 현미경은 기준광과 시료의 굴절률과 두께에 의한 광경로 차이를 간섭 방법을 이용하여 측정하여 3차원 형상을 측정하는 방법이다. 그리고 광 경로차는 시료의 두께와 시료와 시료 주변의 굴절률 차이에 의존한다. 시료 형상 기울기가 매우 큰 경우에는 광 경로차가 커져 일반적인 간섭 방법으로는 측정이 어렵다. 이런 경우 시료를 액체에 담그어 측정하면 광 경로차가 매우 작아져서 일반적인 간섭 방법을 이용하여 측정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 디지털 홀로그램 현미경과 액체를 이용하여 기울기가 큰 비구면 렌즈의 형상을 측정하는 연구를 하였다. 시료의 굴절률과 비슷한 액체를 선택함으로서 비구면 렌즈의 정밀한 3차원 측정이 가능하였다.

홉필드 네트웍은 패턴 매칭과 더불어 최적화 문제를 푸는 도구로 사용될 수 있다. 특히 Zhang과 Ali는 홉필드 네트웍의 노드를 2차원으로 확장하여 최적화 문제를 해결하였다. 잠재적 브랜치의 총합인 노드의 제곱만큼 뉴런이 필요한 Ali 알고리즘은 탐색 네트워크가 커지면 많은 시간이 소요되는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Ali의 방식을 개선하여 계산량을 대폭 줄이고 효과적으로 최적 경로를 탐색할 수 있는 방식을 제안한다. 효과적인 최적 경로 탐색을 위하여 2단계로 구분하여 진행된다. 1단계에는 홉필드 네트웍을 2단계에는 eSPN 알고리즘을 사용하여 최적 경로를 탐색할 수 있다. 제안된 방식은 샘플 네트웍을 통하여 최적 경로 탐색이 확인되었으며, Ali 알고리즘보다 빠르고 간단하여 실제 최적화에 적용하기기 용이하다. 특히, 네트웍의 브랜치 비용이 변화할 경우에도 홉필드 네트웍의 연결 시냅스가 아닌 입력 바이어스를 조정하므로 동적으로 변화하는 네트웍의 최적 경로 탐색에도 유용하다.
