Title: Defense Modeling and Simulation

Publisher: Hanti Media

Publish Date: 03.02.2018

 

Introduction:

Defense Modeling and Simulation (M&S) technology is a convergence technology that encompasses M&S theory, defense domain knowledge, and ICT technology, and is used for defense system/war game analysis, military training/exercises and weapons system development. This book deals with the entire life cycle of defense M&S based on the M&S theory that the author has been studying for over 30 years and the practical experience gained from the past 20 years of defense M&S research and development tasks.

The features of this book are slides and explanations of concepts related to defense M&S technology. The slides are a selection of 120 technical seminars held over the last 20 years in the military, academia, and academy, as well as those developed in KAIST industry-academy cooperative open lectures over the last 8 years (Lecture: Defense M&Tech I, II, III). All the case studies presented in this book were developed using Defense Model (DEVSimHLA) developed by our laboratory (System Modeling Simulation Laboratory: SMS Lab) which were deployed to the Navy/Air Force/Marine Corps, and the simulation results of these models.

The contents of the book deal with the method of modeling the defense system divided into the weapon system(engineering class), the tactical method/doctrine of the weapon system(engagement class), and the military mission according to the level of abstraction, and how to simulate them together. We also introduced a method to utilize Big Data/AI, which is a recent issue, for defense system modeling.

Summary:

 In this book, we provide a comprehensive overview of the background and related technologies, challenges and applications of cloud broker system, which is the middleware between the user and the resource provider by providing resource allocation service for satisfying users’ requirements. . Especially, we present detailed implementation of cloud broker system to address the great challenges for providing an optimal resource reservation capacity control management: 1) different objective of user-centric Service Level Agreement (SLA), 2) complexity of resource allocation for workflow jobs, 3) uncertainty of the resource demands, 4) difficulty on data scheduling in geographically distributed cloud applications, 5) different resource types and the leasing costs, and 6) different payment plans and leasing duration. Specifically, cloud broker system plays a critical role as an intermediate negotiator between the user and the service provider, which orchestrates the application policy on the user’s side and the resource policy on the service provider’s side. The broker functions to bridge the user with the service provider while hiding many workflow mapping details so that the user can utilize the vast resource pool within the internet in a transparent and easy way. Moreover, the broker can offer different service levels in according with different users’ requirements and provide corresponding Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees respectively. The broker has both the functionalities of workflow management and the resource management.

Summary:

This book describes how to build a rigorous end-to-end mathematical framework for deep neural networks. The authors provide tools to represent and describe neural networks, casting previous results in the field in a more natural light. In particular, the authors derive gradient descent algorithms in a unified way for several neural network structures, including multilayer perceptrons, convolutional neural networks, deep autoencoders and recurrent neural networks. Furthermore, the authors developed framework is both more concise and mathematically intuitive than previous representations of neural networks.

This book is one-step towards unlocking the black box of Deep Learning. The authors believe that this framework will help catalyze further discoveries regarding the mathematical properties of neural networks. This book is accessible not only to researchers, professionals and students working and studying in the field of deep learning, but also to those outside of the neutral network community.

Ph.D Candidate Yongmin Jeon developed OLED Wearable Light therapy Patch!

Professor Kyung Cheol Choi and Ph.D candidate Yongmin Jeon have successfully developed OLED Wearable Light therapy Patch with Professor Kyoung-Chan Park and Hye-Ryung Choi from Department of Dermatology, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital (SNUBH).

Phototherapy is a treatment that promotes the biochemical reaction of the human body by irradiating light. It is widely used to heal wounds through LED or laser devices installed in hospitals. However, conventional phototherapy equipments are not flexible, also it is difficult to uniformly irradiate light, and there is a problem that heat is generated. For these reasons, even if patients wanted to increase the effectiveness of the treatment, there was a limit that can not be attached to the human body.

The phototherapy patch developed by Professor Kyung Cheol Choi’s team is light and flexible, allowing you to maintain high-efficiency treatment while adhering to your skin in daily life. The components OLED, battery, heat sink and patch are designed in the form of thin film, less than 1mm thick and less than 1g in weight. It also operates for a long period of more than 300 hours and can be driven in a bend radius of 20 mm, so it can be attached to various body parts. It operates at less than 42°C, eliminates the risk of low-temperature burns, and it has been verified to be safe by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards, and has an excellent healing effect that improves cell proliferation by 58% and cell migration by 46%.

This research was supported by the Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Information and Communication / Korea Research Foundation Basic Research Project (ERC : Attachable Photo Therapeutics Center for e-Healthcare)

Published in the International Journal of Advanced Materials Technologies (March 8). More information can be found in the following papers and press releases.

-Title of Paper: A study on frame rate improvement using hierarchical convolution neural network

-Authors: Sung-Jun Yoon, Yongwoo Kim, Munchurl Kim

Introduction:

In this paper, we propose a frame rate enhancement method using hierarchical convolution neural network. The convolutional neural network is constructed hierarchically, and the convolution operation is performed at the optimal position adaptively, so that the performance is robust against the interpolation of the fast moving object.

As a result, compared with the existing ICCV 2017 “Video Frame Interpolation via Adaptive Separable Convolution” algorithm, the improvement was 0.41dB in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR)
