차선 마킹 검출은 지능형 운송 시스템(ITS, intelligent transportation systems), 운전자 보조 시스템(DAS, driver assistant systems) 등에 필수적인 요소이다. 이 논문에서는 스케일 공간 기법을 이용하여 기존의 기법들에 비해 견고한 차선 마킹 검출기법을 제안한다. 차선 마킹 검출에 많이 사용되고 있는 지역 통계 기반 가변적 문턱처리 기법은 밝기 특성이 두드러진 객체의 검출에 유리하므로 차선 마킹 검출에 효과적일 수 있다. 그러나 통계적 특징만으로는 무관한 영역도 함께 검출되므로, 이 논문에서는 가변적 문턱처리 결과와 함께 수평 1D LoG 필터링 스케일 공간을 합성하여 차선 마킹 후보 영역을 축소하는 기법을 제안한다. 실제 영상에 대해 가변적 문턱처리뿐만 아니라 차선 마킹 검출을 위한 또 다른 대표적인 기법인 하프 변환을 사용하는 기법과도 비교한 결과, 뚜렷한 차선 마킹 후보 영역 축소를 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper presents a multistage adaptive thresholding method and circular Hough transform for pupil detection. Multistage adaptive thresholding is a thresholding method that applies local image statistic within a neighborhood variable and the global thresholds. Therefore, the method can adopt the benefit of local thresholding and prevent an over segmentation at the same time because of the global image information. To detect a pupil, a circular Hough transform is applied to it in which the pupil pattern is considered as a circle shape. The experimental results show the reliability of our proposed method in detecting pupil properly.

The orientation space representation is constructed by treating the orientation parameters, which Gabor filters can be turned, as a continuous variable. The problem of multiple orientation line segmentation is dealt with by thresholding 3D images of the orientation space and then detecting the connected components therein. In this way, X-junctions and T-junctions are able to be separated effectively. Experimental results are presented using synthesized image.

Variable selection algorithm for principal component analysis using penalized likelihood method is proposed. We will adopt a probabilistic principal component idea to utilize likelihood function for the problem and use HARD penalty function to force coefficients of any irrelevant variables for each component to zero. Consistency and sparsity of coefficient estimates will be provided with results of small simulated and illustrative real examples.

Signal averaging technique to improve signal-to-noise ratio has widely been used in various fields, especially in electrophysiology. Estimation of the EP(evoked potential) signal using the conventional averaging method fails to correctly reconstruct the original signal under EEG(electroencephalogram) noise especial]y when the latency times of the evoked potential are not identical. Therefore, a technique based on the bispectrum averaging was proposed for recovering signal waveform from a set o noisy signals with variable signal dalay. In this paper an improved bispectrum estimation technique of the RP signal is proposed using a confidence thresholding of the EP signal in frequency domain in which energy distribution of the EP signal is usually not uniform. The suggested technique is coupled with the conventional bispectrum estimation technique such as least square method and recursive method. Some results with simulated data and real EP signal are shown.

In this article, we propose nonconcave penalties on a reduced-rank regression model to select variables and estimate coefficients simultaneously. We apply HARD (hard thresholding) and SCAD (smoothly clipped absolute deviation) symmetric penalty functions with singularities at the origin, and bounded by a constant to reduce bias. In our simulation study and real data analysis, the new method is compared with an existing variable selection method using $L_1$ penalty that exhibits competitive performance in prediction and variable selection. Instead of using only one type of penalty function, we use two or three penalty functions simultaneously and take advantages of various types of penalty functions together to select relevant predictors and estimation to improve the overall performance of model fitting.

Recently, 8 kb/s CS-ACELP coder of G.729 is atandardized by ITU-T SG15 and it has been reported that the speech quality of G729 is better than or equal to that of 32kb/s ADPCM. However G.729 is the fixed rate speech coder, and it does not consider the property of voice activity in mutual conversation. If we use the voice activity, we can reduce the average bit rate in half without any degradations of the speech quality. In this paper, we propose an efficient variable rate algorithm for G.729. The variable rate algorithm consists of two main subjects, the rate determination algorithm and algorithm, we combine the energy-thresholding method, the phonetic segmentation method by integration of various feature parameters obtained through the analysis procedure, and the variable hangover period method. Through the analysis of noise features, the 1 kb/s sub rate coder is designed for coding the background noise signal. So, we design the 4 kb/s sub rate coder for the unvoiced parts. The performance of the variable rate algorithm is evaluated by the comparison of speed quality and average bit rate with G.729. Subjective quality test is also done by MOS test. Conclusively, it is verified that the proposed variable rate CS-ACELP coder produced the same speech quality as G.729, at the average bit rate of 4.4 kb/s.

In this paper we propose a new approach to the variable selection problem for a primary resolution and wavelet basis functions in wavelet regression. Most wavelet shrinkage methods focus on thresholding the wavelet coefficients, given a primary resolution which is usually determined by the sample size. However, both a primary resolution and the basis functions are affected by the shape of an unknown function rather than the sample size. Unlike existing methods, our method does not depend on the sample size and also takes into account the shape of the unknown function.

This paper describes a new automatic bi-level image segmentation algorithm which determines local thresholds by applying a locally adaptive edge detection technique to a variable threshold selection method. Computer simulations show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is more robust than those of automatic global thresholding methods.

Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) 기반의 디콘볼루션 방식은 CT 관류 영상 해석에서 가장 널리 사용되는 기법이다. 이 방식에서는 잡음의 영향을 줄이기 위해 SVD 계수를 임계화하는 과정이 사용된다. 이 때 임계화 경계치로 고정된 값을 사용하거나 미리 정해진 진동 지수(Oscillation Index)에 따른 경계치가 사용된다. 이들 두 임계화 방식은 계산량과 정확도 측면에서 서로 장단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 두 임계화 방식의 정확도를 비교하기 위한 몬테 칼로 모의 실험 방식을 제안한다. 또한 관류 해석시 사용하는 평활화 과정이 알고리즘의 정확도에 미치는 영향을 측정하기 위해 이 실험 방식을 확장하였다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 성능 비교를 위한 모의 실험 방식을 제시하고, 모의 데이터와 실제 CT 영상에 대한 실험 결과를 소개한다.
