A theory of natural observation methods was originally formulated for two complementary systems: neighboring type and equilibrium type. This paper introduces a new system, normal-type system, that is different from the forementioned two types. One characteristic feature of the normal-type natural observation method is its ability to reconstruct an original waveform from the sum of a finite number of observation values. The natural observation theory of a normal type evolves naturally under the condition that a waveform and its power component can be expressed in the sum form. These meanings are discussed by comparing a frequency response of the normal-type natural observation transform with that of a conventional filter bank. Furthermore, a criterion for determining observation parameters in order to realize the natural observation of normal type under a given tolerance of error is described. It is believed that the proposed theory offers new insights into systematization of the natural observation theory.

A syntax-oriented method for a map-aided analysis of structures in aerial images is proposed. First the map must be analysed in order to obtain a suitable representation of its knowledge content. A special kind of graph, a so-called image-description graph, is the result of this map analysis. The knowledge of the map, represented on different description levels, is used to control the search process during the image analysis. Based on this knowledge, expectations for attribute values of image objects are defined. Generated objects are assessed relative to the expectations of the map and the object model. A set-oriented selection method is applied to deduce the processing priority using these two assessments. Expected objects are preferably processed for building up more complex objects. Thus the map-aided analysis can be used to reduce the processing time for a verification task.

The design and realization of a videoconference system based on international recommendation are introduced in this paper, and the hardware implementation of video codec based on ITU-T H. 261 is briefly discussed. Furthermore, the buffer control method and the adaptive control strategy for quantization are proposed, which are adaptive and robust. This system can be operated under the transmission rate ranging from 128kb/s to 2Mb/s. With these strategies for the videoconference system, the high quality image is obtained. The time delay of the system is about half a second.

The relationship between the recognition rate of handwritten numerals and the normality of the distribution of their features has been investigated experimentally with a large amount of data in various combinations of quantized orientations and regions. The recognition method is based on the histogram of local orientation of contours of each numeral. To obtain a more accurate orientation quantization, the effectiveness of the orientation quantization using the gray-scale gradient has also been investigated. The results show that: (1) to increase the dimensionality of features, it is better to increase the number of quantized orientations, keeping the number of regions small (e.g., 4 x 4 or 5 x 5);(2) in the same dimensionality, the better the normality of a feature distribution, the higher the recognition rate;(3) a quantization of orientations using gray scales is effective for normalizing a feature distribution;and (4) the filter processing in reduction of the number of quantization scales improves the normality and recognition rate. The recognition of handwritten numerals collected from actual posts were carried out by using the gray-scale local-orientation histogram (400 dimensions). A correct recognition rate of 99.18 percent (mean value) has been obtained.

A method of object recognition is proposed based on Dempster-Shafer theory (DS theory), which can treat the ambiguity of image data. A model based object recognition technique based on an aspect imaging method will also be proposed. The aspect imaging method recognizes a similar aspect object by comparing an input image with an aspect image of the model database. Our proposed method calculates the degree of similarity based on the DS theory instead of Bayes theory, represents an uncertainty factor of similarity as a basic probability of DS theory, and assigns a basic probability of information to be decided. The experimental results show that the proposed method is both more robust and more reliable.

During the past few years, there has been a series of papers published on the theory of the natural observation method. As one of the important applications of this theory, the problems of acceptance and generation of a general waveform are discussed here. The case of polynomial waveforms and its corresponding theory was published previously. A great extension of that theory which covers general waveforms is presented here and its full picture is clarified.

In this article a multimedia computer-assisted learning (MCAL) system is presented. The major objective of this work was to investigate the potential of using such systems as tools for transferring instructional course information through various types of computer media as opposed to the classic CAL systems. The philosophy and techniques employed to design the system are investigated. Usage of the implemented system and its merits have been illustrated through its application to teach engineering students and technicians the theory and concepts of marine radar. System design, implementation, test, and revision phases are presented and discussed.
