관심 객체의 인식 및 추적은 컴퓨터 비전 분야의 중요한 영역이다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 Mean-Shift 알고리즘의 고질적인 문제인 유사 히스토그램 분포를 가지는 객체 간 혼동 현상을 해결하는 방법을 제안한다. 피부색 필터링, 얼굴 인식, Mean-Shift 순으로 진행되는 처리 과정에서 각각의 알고리즘 블럭은 다음 진행 알고리즘의 성능을 높이는데 기여한다. 연산 오버헤드가 발생하지 않도록 추적 영역과 유사한 히스토그램 분포를 가지는 영역이 겹쳐질 때에만 화이트 픽셀의 수를 고려해 Viola-Jones 알고리즘을 실행하여 간단한 산술 연산을 통해 Mean-Shift의 수렴성을 높인다. 실험 결과 화이트 픽셀 수가 Mean-Shift의 탐색 반경에서 78%이상이 되면 Viola-Jones 알고리즘이 수행되도록 설정하였을 때 얼굴 영역 인식이 되는 경우에 한해서 객체 추적은 100% 성공하였다.

Interleaving techniques are widely used to reduce input/output ripples and to increase the power capacity of boost converters operating in critical conduction mode. Two types of phase-shift control schemes are studied in this paper, the turn-on time shifting method and the turn-off time shifting method. It is found that although the turn-off time shifting method exhibits better performance, it suffers from sub-harmonic oscillations at high input voltages. To solve this problem, an intensive quantitative analysis of the sub-harmonic oscillation phenomenon is made in this paper. Based upon that, a novel modified turn off time shifting control scheme for interleaved boost converters operating in critical conduction mode is proposed. An important advantage of this scheme is that both the master phase and the slave phase can operate stably in critical conduction mode without any oscillations in the full input voltage range. This method is implemented with a FPGA based digital PWM control platform, and tests were carried out on a two-phase interleaved boost PFC converter prototype. Experimental results demonstrated the feasibility and performance of the proposed phase-shift control scheme.

The brightness of the Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display is controlled by thin-film transistors (TFTs). Regardless of the materials and the structures of TFTs, an OLED suffers from the instable threshold voltage (V_th) of a TFT during operation. When designing an OLED pixel with circuit simulation tool such as SPICE, a designer needs to take V_th shift into account to improve the reliability of the circuit and various compensation methods have been proposed. In this paper, the effect of the compensation circuits from two typical OLED pixel circuits proposed in the literature are studied by the transient simulation with a SPICE tool in which the stretched-exponential time dependent V_th shift function is implemented. The simulation results show that the compensation circuits improve the reliability at the beginning of each frame, but V_th shifts from all TFTs in a pixel need to be considered to improve long-time reliability.

Interdiffusion process at interfaces of chemically identical polymers (e.g., deuterated-nondeuterated pairs) with different molecular weights or polymers with similar physical properties, is studied here by varying the diffusion time. Considering the vacancy flux ($J_v$) and adopting the Cahn-Hilliard interracial energy in describing this system, we can see that the variation of the interfacial composition profile with time is asymetric and the interface moves towards the polymer with the lower molecular weight as interdiffusion progresses. Furthermore, interface shift $\Delta\chi$, which characterizes the interdiffusion between polymers, agrees well with the behaviors of the existing experimental data. We can also obtain the interface shift factor C, which can be converted into values of $D_s$ (self-diffusion coefficient of the smaller molecules), from the slopes of the linear fits to the data of the interface shift.

An arc sensor system to compensate positional errors was developed on the foundation of sensor interface system to make use of the on-line shift function of industrial welding robot. Investigating the on-line shift function, we examine the quantitative relationship between the deviation from programmed path and the correction data transferred from personal computer to robot controller. The number of input parameters for weld seam tracking can be reduced by making the relationship between the deviation and the correction data during half weaving be the function of only cross time. With the results of weld seam tracking for the butt joint with V-groove and fillet joint of sheet metal, good performance was implemented. By developing the sensor interface system to compensate the positional errors, industrial welding robot can be expected to contribute to the promotion of welding automation.

In the seas around the Korean Peninsula, the seasonal cycle of zooplankton related to North Pacific regime shifts was investigated to understand the reaction of the ecosystem to climate change using long-term data on zooplankton biomass (1965-2000) and the abundance of four major zooplankton groups: copepods, amphipods, chaetognaths, and euphausiids (1978-2000). In general, the zooplankton biomass showed a large peak in spring and a small peak in autumnin Korean waters, but there was a slight difference in the peak time depending on the location and the period before and after the North Pacific regime shift. The zooplankton biomass showed conspicuous seasonal peaks in R-III (1990-2000) compared to R-I (1965-1976) and R-II (1977-1988), and the seasonal peak shifted from the autumn in R-II to the spring in R-III. The peak of copepods and euphausiids in abundance was from April to June, while chaetognaths peaked from August to October. We postulate that the time lag between the peaks for copepods and chaetognaths results from the predator-prey relationship. The regime shift in 1989 did not alter the seasonal cycle of the four major zooplankton groups, although it enhanced their production. The seasonal peaks of the four major zooplankton groups did not shift, while the seasonal peaks of the zooplankton biomass did shift. This was not only becausethe zooplankton biomass included other mesozooplankton groups but also because the abundance of the four major zooplankton groups increased significantly in spring.

This paper describes as Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry system which has been designed for measuring vibration patterns and quantitative measurement of vibration amplitude fields by using the time average method on a object. Visbility of fringe patterns is more improved by using the phase stepping and frame average method to reduce speckle and electric noise. And a bias vibration is introduced into the reference beam to shift the $\frac{2}{0}$ fringes so that fringe shift algorithms can be used to determine vibration amplitude. The experimental results are compared to those of the FFT analyzer and the FEM model analysis.

In this paper, we propose an efficient architecture for 2D IWT using an existing 1D IWT. Lifting based IWT is the architecture of which a multiplier is replaced by adders and shift registers. The structure is relatively simple and modular. The proposed architecture to process an image size with 256x256 pixels consists of 16 adders, 8 shift registers, and some memories. By processing two rows at the same time, 2D sub-band coefficients can be calculated immediately after 1D sub-band coefficients have been processed. The architecture is designed so that each image can be inputted consecutively. The number of adders and shift registers is increased by twice comparing the existing architecture, but the memory size and the execution time are decreased by half. The proposed architecture is implemented using Verilog-HDL and simulated using iSim. It is synthesized and demonstrated at ISE for xc5vlx330 in RPS3K board.

In order to control thermal deformation of machine origin of machine tools due to internal and external heat sources, the real-time compensation system has been developed. First, GMDH models were constructed to estimate thermal deformation of machine origin for a vertical machining center through the measurement of deformation data and temperature data of specific points on the machine tool. Thermocouples and gap sensors are used respectively for measurement. These models are nonlinear equations with high-order polynomials and implemented in a multilayered perceptron type network structure. Secondly, work origin shift method were developed by implementing digital I/O interface board between CNC controller and IBM-PC. The work origin shift method is to shift the work origin by the compensation amounts which is calculated by pre-established GMDH model. From the experimental result, thermal deformation of machine origin was reduced to below $\pm$5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

An automated guided vehicle (AGV) system is a group of collaborating unmanned vehicles which is commonly used for transporting materials within manufacturing, warehousing, or distribution systems. The performance of an AGV system depends on the dispatching rules used to assign vehicles to pickup requests, the vehicle routing protocols, and the home location of idle vehicles, which are called dwell points. In manufacturing and distribution environments which emphasize just-in-time principles, performance measures for material handling are based on response times for pickup requests and equipment utilization. In an AGV system, the response time for a pickup request is the time that it takes for the vehicle to travel from its dwell point to the pickup station. In this article, an exact dynamic programming algorithm for selecting dwell points in a tandem-loop multiple-vehicle AGV system is presented. The objective of the model is to minimize the maximum response time for all pickup requests in a given shift. The recursive algorithm considers time restrictions on the availability of vehicles during the shift.
