The flow of electrical current through a microscopic actual contact spot between two conductors is influenced by the flow through adjacent contact spots. A smoothed version of this interaction effect is developed and used to predict the contact resistance when the statistical size and spatial distribution of contact spots is known. To illustrate the use of the method, an idealized fractal rough surface is defined using the random midpoint displacement algorithm and the size distribution of contact spots is assumed to be given by the intersection of this surface with a constant height plane. With these assumptions, it is shown that including finer scale detail in the fractal surface, equivalent to reducing the sampling length in the measurement of the surface, causes the predicted resistance to approach the perfect contact limit.

Spatiotemporal statistical models are used for analyzing space-time data in many fields, such as environmental sciences, meteorology, geology, epidemiology, forestry, hydrology, fishery, and so on. It is well known that classical spatiotemporal process modeling requires the estimation of space-time variogram or covariance functions. In practice, the estimation of such variogram or covariance functions are computationally difficult and highly sensitive to data structures. We investigate a Bayesian hierarchical model which allows the specification of a more realistic series of conditional distributions instead of computationally difficult and less realistic joint covariance functions. The spatiotemporal model investigated in this study allows both spatial component and autoregressive temporal component. These two features overcome the inability of pure time series models to adequately predict changes in trends in individual sites.

The distribution of physicochemical environmental factors and microbiological factors was studied at 6 sampling sites in Kyeongge Bay of Yellow Sea from October 1989 to October 1990. The total bacterial number, saprophytic bacterial number, petroleum-degrading bacterial number, bacterial biomass, and bacterial secondary production were measured in the range of 0.09~1.24*10$^{7}$ cells/ml, 7~60000 CFUs/ml, 0~240 cells/ml, 14.16~301 .$\mu$g-C/l, and 0.13~11.82 mg-C/m$^{3}$/hr, respectively. The turnover times of $^{3}$H-glucose and $^{3}$H-acetate were in range of 6.5~6984 and 41~24897 hours, respectively. The spatial distribution of heterotrophic bacterial communities were hightly affected by influx of organic pollutants from the coastal area and the seawater exchange with offshore.

멀티미디어 장치와 사용자의 욕구가 다양해짐에 따라 이를 충족시키기 위하여 이미지 크기는 장치에서 지원하는 해상도나 사용자의 욕구에 맞게 조정되어야 한다. 이미지 업샘플링 방법은 크게 공간 도메인과 주파수 도메인에서 수행될 수 있다. 일반적으로 공간 도메인에서의 업샘플링 방법은 주파수 도메인의 업샘플링에 비해 상대적으로 주관적인 화질 측면에서 좋은 성능을 나타내지만 객관적인 성능이 낮다. 반대로 주파수 도메인에서의 업샘플링 방법은 객관적인 화질이 좋고 주관적인 화질 측면에서 상대적으로 성능이 낮게 나타난다. 본 논문에서는 공간 도메인과 주파수 도메인에서의 업샘플링 방법을 블록의 특성에 따라 적응적으로 업샘플링 방법을 선택하는 알고리듬을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 객관적 성능 뿐 아니라 주관적 성능까지도 향상 시킬 수 있다. 실험 결과를 통해 제안하는 알고리듬이 기존의 알고리듬에 비해 PSNR 측면에서 0.87dB~1.15dB 증가하고, 주관적 화질도 향상됨을 알 수 있다.

This paper describes the development and evaluation of an innovative TDR distributed moisture sensor. This sensor features advantages of being responsive to the spatial variations of the soil moisture content. The geometry design of the sensor makes it rugged for field installation. Good linear calibration is obtained between the sensor measured dielectric constant and soil physical properties. Simulations by the finite element method (FEM) are conducted to assist the design of this sensor and to determine the effective sampling range. Compared with conventional types of moisture sensor, which only makes point measurement, this sensor possesses distributed moisture sensing capability. This new sensor is not only easy to install, but also measures moisture distribution with much lower cost. This new sensor holds promise to significantly improve the current field instruments. It will be a useful tool to help study the influence of a variety of moisture-related phenomena on infrastructure performance.

최근 각광을 받고 있는 데이터 마이닝 분야에서 데이터 마이닝 툴과 시스템의 등장으로 상호적이고 사용하기 쉬운 GUI 환경의 강력한 데이터 마이닝 질의 언어가 필요하게 되었다. 공간 데이터 마이닝은 공간 데이터에서 유용한 지식을 발견하기 위한 데이터 마이닝의 한 부문이며 공간 데이터는 점, 선, 사각형, 다각형 등으로 이루어져 있다. 공간 데이터 마이닝은 지리정보시스템(GIS)과 더불어 최근에 많은 관심과 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 한편, 공간 데이터 마이닝을 위한 질의 언어와 그 언어에 기반한 공간 데이터 마이닝 질의 처리 및 최적화에 대한 연구가 중요하게 대두되고 있다. 공간 데이터에 대한 마이닝은 일반 관계형 데이터베이스에서의 질의 언어로는 표현이 불가능하다. 본 연구에서는 먼저 공간 데이터 마이닝 질의언어를 정의, 설계하고 질의 언어에 결과 표현 방식과 결과 데이터 집합의 저장을 명시하여 질의 표현의 효율을 높이는 방식을 제시하였다. 또한 공간 데이터 마이닝을 위한 질의 처리 및 최적화 과정을 질의에 기반한 공간 실체화 뷰의 생성과 유지, 인덱스 활용을 통한 질의 재사용, sampling 마이닝 질의 option 등의 방법론을 이용하여 제시하였다.

This paper introduces an approach to detect motion areas of stationary objects when the camera slightly moves in the scene by computing optical flow. The flow field is computed by two pyramidal architectures of 5 levels which are built by down-sampling the size of the images by half at each level. Two pyramids of images are built and then optical flow is computed at each level. A warping process combines the information and generates a final flow field after applying edge smoothness and outliers reduction steps. Moreover, we convert the flow vectors in order of magnitude and angle to a color map using a pseudo-color palette. Experimental results in the Middlebury optical flow dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of our method compared to other approaches.

Sampling rates become inconsistent when spatial data in spherical coordinate are re-sampled with respect latitudinal or longitudinal degree for mathematical processes such as Fourier Transfrom, and this results in the distrtions of the processed data in the wavenmber domain. This distortions are more evident in the polar regions. An example is presented to show such distortions during the recovery process of free-air gravity anomalies from ERSI radar atimeter data in Russian Arctic Barents Sea, and a method is present to minimize the distortion using Lambect Conformal Conic map projection.

Spatial distribution of phytoplankton was investigated in the southwestern sea of Korea in May 2000 in terms of phytohydrography. The sampling was done at the 0m, 30m, 50m of 15 selected stations, and permanent slides of each samples were prepared by QPS method for quantitative and qualitative analyses. Phytoplankton standing crops ranged from 3.23${\times}$10$\^$-4/ to 1.09${\times}$10$\^$-7/ cellsㆍ$\ell$$\^$-1/ in the study area. Dominant species comprised of 9 diatoms and 2 phytoflagellates, showing higher dominance of diatom and most predominance of Skeletonema costatum in all layers of most stations. Phytohydrographic results indicate that the study area might be divided into 4 categories, that is, I area is designated as neritic area where occurrence of terrestrial and coastal species is frequent, II area as intermediate area, III area as offshore area where oceanic species dominate, and IV area as other's. Especially in the II area, Skeletonema costatum was most predominant at both surface and 30m layer in most stations and represent an characteristic of northward expansion with spring massive bloom.

Sampling rates become inconsistent when spatial data in the spherical coordinate are resampled with respect to latitudinal or longitudinal degree for mathematical processes such as Fourier Transform, and this results in distortions of the processed data in the wavenumber domain. These distortions are more evident in the polar regions. An example is presented to show such distortions during the recovery process of free-air gravity anomalies from ERS-1 satellite radar altimeter data from the Barents Sea in the Russian Arctic, and a method is presented to minimize the distortion using the Lambert Conformal Conic map projection. This approach was found to enhance the free-air gravity anomalies in both data and wavenumber domains.
