In this paper, we propose an adaptive wavelet method for car interior noise cancellation. For this purpose, we use a node dependent threshold which minimizes the Bayesian risk. We propose a noise estimation method based on spectral entropy using histogram of intensity and a candidate best basis instead of Donoho's best bases. And we modify the hard threshold function. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is more efficient, especially to heavy noisy signal than conventional one.

This paper describes some results of change detection in Tokyo metropolitan area, Japan , using the Landsat TM data, and methods to quantify the ground cover classes. The changes are analyzed using the measures of not only conventional spectral classes but also a set of landscape indices to describe spatial properties of ground cove types using fractal dimension of objects, entropy in the specific windows defining the neighbors of focusing locations. In order eliminate the seasonal radiometric effects on TM data, an automated class labeling method is also attempted. Urban areas are also delineated automatically by defining the boundaries of the urban area. These procedures for urban change detection were implemented by the unified image computing methods proposed by the author, they can be automated in coherent and systematic ways, and it is anticipated to automate the whole procedures. The results of this analysis suggest that Tokyo metropolitan area was extended to the suburban areas along the new transportation networks and the high density area of Tokyo were also very much extended during the period between 1985 and 1995.

Replication protein A (RPA) is an essential single-stranded DNA binding protein in DNA processing. It is known that N terminal domain of RPA70 (RPA70N) recruits various protein partners including damage-response proteins such as p53, ATRIP, Rad9, and MRE11. Although the common binding residues of RPA70N were revealed, dynamic properties of the protein are not studied yet. In this study, we measured $^{15}N$ relaxation parameters ($T_1,\;T_2$ and heteronuclear NOE) of human RPA70N and analyzed them using model-free analysis. Our data showed that the two loops near the binding site experience fast time scale motion while the binding site does not. It suggests that the protein binding surface of RPA70N is mostly rigid for minimizing entropy cost of binding and the loops can experience conformational changes.

Image segmentation techniques becoming increasingly important in the field of remote sensing image analysis in areas such as object oriented image classification. This paper presents a new method for image segmentation in High Resolution Remote Sensing Image based on Seeded Region Growing (SRG) and Edge Information. Firstly, multi-spectral edge detection was done using an entropy operator in pan-sharpened QuickBird imagery. Then, the initial seeds were automatically selected from the obtained edge map. After automatic selection of significant seeds, an initial segmentation was achieved by applying SRG. Finally the region merging process, using region adjacency graph (RAG), was carried out to get the final segmentation result. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method has good potential for application in the segmentation of high resolution satellite images.

음성통신 및 음성인식에 있어서 잡음이 섞인 음성으로부터 음성의 활성화 구간의 검출은 대단히 중요한 과정으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 잡음음성으로부터 음성의 활성화 구간을 검출하기 위하여 스펙트럴 엔트로피와 복합으로 구성하는 특징 파라미터를 제안하고 에너지를 기반으로 음성 활성화 구간을 검출하는 방식과 성능 비교 실험을 행하였다. 실험결과, 노이즈 환경에서 다른 파라미터에 비하여 제안한 파라미터에 의한 음성 활성화 구간 검출의 성능이 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다.

Voice activity detection (VAD) is important in many areas of speech processing technology. Speech/nonspeech discrimination in noisy environments is a difficult task because the feature parameters used for the VAD are sensitive to the surrounding environments. Thus the VAD performance is severely degraded at low signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). In this paper, a new VAD algorithm is proposed based on the degree of voicing and Quantile SNR (QSNR). These two feature parameters are more robust than other features such as energy and spectral entropy in noisy environments. The effectiveness of proposed algorithm is evaluated under the diverse noisy environments in the Aurora2 DB. According to out experiment, the proposed VAD outperforms the ETSI Advanced Frontend VAD.

To find the best way to distinguish sand dunes from urban building and rural patches, textural analysis has been performed in Kimnyeong sand dune, Jeju. An aerial photo was re-sampled into one-meter. Homomorphic filters were applied to the original sub-scene and then high-pass filtered one. The entropy filtered one proves to be the best extraction method after high pass filtered-homomorphic filters in urban areas. The spectral values of sand dune area were similar to open land in rural area. In contrast, the texture values of sand dune area are more homogeneous than those of open land in rural area.

With the wide application of hyperspectral images, it becomes more and more important to compress hyperspectral images. Conventional recursive least squares (CRLS) algorithm has great potentiality in lossless compression for hyperspectral images. The prediction accuracy of CRLS is closely related to the correlations between the reference bands and the current band, and the similarity between pixels in prediction context. According to this characteristic, we present an improved CRLS with adaptive band selection and adaptive predictor selection (CRLS-ABS-APS). Firstly, a spectral vector correlation coefficient-based k-means clustering algorithm is employed to generate clustering map. Afterwards, an adaptive band selection strategy based on inter-spectral correlation coefficient is adopted to select the reference bands for each band. Then, an adaptive predictor selection strategy based on clustering map is adopted to select the optimal CRLS predictor for each pixel. In addition, a double snake scan mode is used to further improve the similarity of prediction context, and a recursive average estimation method is used to accelerate the local average calculation. Finally, the prediction residuals are entropy encoded by arithmetic encoder. Experiments on the Airborne Visible Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) 2006 data set show that the CRLS-ABS-APS achieves average bit rates of 3.28 bpp, 5.55 bpp and 2.39 bpp on the three subsets, respectively. The results indicate that the CRLS-ABS-APS effectively improves the compression effect with lower computation complexity, and outperforms to the current state-of-the-art methods.

본 연구의 목적은 질감을 분광정보와 함께 사용했을 때의 분류정확도의 향상을 평가하는데 있다. 먼저 부산지역의 SPOT HRV 영상에 최대우도분류를 적용하여 토지피복도를 작성하였다. 그리고 3번 파장에서 다양한 질감을 추출한 다음, 이 질감을 신파장의 형태로 분광정보에 통합하여 분류하여 질감의 사용이 분류의 정확도에 미치는 영향을 질감별로 평가하였다. 정확도 평가는 전체적인 정확도와 토지피복별 정확도로 구분하였다. 연구결과 전체적인 정확도 향상을 관측할 수 있었는데, 특히 엔트로피의 개선 효과가 우수하였다. 그리고 창의 크기는 $5{\times}5$와 $7{\times}7$이 적절한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 질감에 따라서는 전체적인 정확도는 향상되지 않더라도 일부 토지피복의 정확도는 개선되는 것으로 나타났다. 토지피복별로는 저층건물지역, 아파트 단지. 고층건물지역, 공업지역 등 도시지역의 개선효과가 높은 것으로 나타났다.

In the present study, our aim is to investigate whether responses to the head-up tilt (HUT) on nonlinear properties of heart rate variability (HRV) in young and elderly subjects are different or not. Thirteen young-healthy subjects ($24.5{\pm}3.7$ years) and 18 old-aged healthy subjects ($74.5{\pm}7.4$ years) participated in this study. An electrocardiogram (ECG) in the supine posture, at $0^{\circ}$, and in the standing posture, at $70^{\circ}$ of head-up tilt, was recorded. Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) and approximate entropy (ApEn), measures of short-/long-term correlation properties and overall complexity of heart rate (HR) respectively, along with spectral components of HR variability (HRV) were analyzed for both the supine and HUT postures. We observed that the short-term fractal exponent ${\alpha}_1$ increased during HUT posture (F(1, 29) = 39.79, P = 0.000), especially, the young subjects showed a significantly higher values compared to the elderly subjects. ApEn significantly decreased (F(1, 29) = 8.61, P = 0.006) during HUT posture. HUT posture decreased the complexity in HR dynamics and increased short-term fractal exponent values in young subjects but not in elderly subjects. These results imply that there are differences of response to HUT on nonlinear properties between young and elderly subjects.
