In this paper, we proposed extracting modified Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) features using background removal when tracking pedestrians in real time. HOG feature extraction has a problem of slow processing speed due to large computation amount. Background removal has been studied to improve computation reductions and tracking rate. Area removal was carried out using S and V channels in HSV color space to reduce feature extraction in unnecessary areas. The average S and V channels of the video were removed and the input video was totally dark, so that the object tracking may fail. Histogram equalization was performed to prevent this case. HOG features extracted from the removed region are reduced, and processing speed and tracking rates were improved by extracting clear HOG features. In this experiment, we experimented with videos with a large number of pedestrians or one pedestrian, complicated videos with backgrounds, and videos with severe tremors. Compared with the existing HOG-SVM method, the proposed method improved the processing speed by 41.84% and the error rate was reduced by 52.29%.

In this paper, we present an image retrieval system using shape features. The preprocessing to gain shape feature includes edge extraction using chain code. The shape features consist of center of mass, standard deviation, ratio of major axis and minor axis length. The similarity is estimated as comparing the features of query image with the features of images in database. Thus, the candidates of images are retrieved according to the order of similarity. The result of an experimentation is dullness for scale, rotation and translation. We evaluate the performance of shape features for image retrieval on a database with over 170 images. The Recall and the Precision is each 0.72 and 0.83 in the result of average experiment. So the proposed method is presented useful method.

In this paper, a new saliency map generation method is discussed which extracts objects effectively using extracted Salient Region. Feature map is constructed first using four features of edge, hue of HSV color model, focus and entropy and then conspicuity map is generated from Center Surround Differences using the feature map. Final saliency map is constructed by the combination of conspicuity maps. Saliency map generated using this procedure is compared to the conventional technique and confirmed that new technique has better results.

In the past, there have been many theory and algorithms for vehicle tracking. But the time complexity of many feature point matching methods for vehicle tracking are exponential. Also, object segmentation and detection algorithms presented for vehicle tracking are exhaustive and time consuming. Therefore, we present the fast and efficient two stages method that can efficiently track the many moving vehicles on the road. The first detects the vehicle plate regions and extracts the feature points of vehicle plates. The second associates the feature points between frames using dynamic programming.

본 연구에서는 내용기반 영상 데이터 검색을 위하여 변환 영역에서 위치 정보와 주파수 정보를 가지는 웨이블릿 성질을 이용하여 영상을 압축한 후에 저주파 성분에 의한 객체들의 특징을 추출하는 방안으로 Vector Quantization 을 이용한 class 별 영상 검색을 제시한다 내용기반 영상 검색의 주요특징들은 색상, 질감, 그리고 영상의 공간적인 특징을 고려한 특징 값 둥이 사용된다. 먼저 검색의 효율성을 높이기 위해 영상을 구성하는 특징 치 중에서 가장 빈도가 많은 class 부터 영상의 유사도를 검색한 후에 다음으로 영상을 구성하는 빈도가 큰 순서대로 DB 내에 저장되어 있는 영상과 비교를 하게 된다. DB내 영상 검색은 빈도수가 우선인 5개의 class를 기준으로 유사도를 측정해서 검색을 이룬다. 이러한 영상의 특징들을 어떻게 결합하고 특징 추출을 하느냐에 따라 검색의 효율성에 영향을 준다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 영상의 위치 정보와 주파수 정보를 가지는 웨이블릿 변환 후 얻어지는 저대역 부밴드에서의 공간적인 특성을 고려한 특징 값을 이용하여 Vector Quantization 알고리즘에 의해 정지영상의 객체 대표 특징들을 마르게 검색하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 Haar Wavelet과 Vector Quantization 에서 색상과 질감의 가중치를 적용한 후 DB 에 저장된 영상과 유사도를 검색하는 방법을 취하고자 한다.

In this paper, we propose a loitering detection using trajectory probability distribution and local direction descriptor for intelligent surveillance system. We use a background modeling method for detecting moving object and extract the motion features from each moving object for making feature vectors. After that, we detect the loitering behavior person using K-Nearest Neighbor classifier. We test the proposed method in real world environment and it can achieve real time and robust detection results.

LiDAR(Light Detection and Ranging) data acquired from ALS(Airborne Laser Scanner) has been intensively utilized to reconstruct object models. Especially, researches for 3D modeling from LiDAR data have been performed to establish high quality spatial information such as precise 3D city models and true orthoimages efficiently. To reconstruct object models from irregularly distributed LiDAR point clouds, sensor calibration, noise removal, filtering to separate objects from ground surfaces are required as pre-processing. Classification and segmentation based on geometric homogeneity of the features, grouping and representation of the segmented surfaces, topological analysis of the surface patches for modeling, and accuracy assessment are accompanied by modeling procedure. While many modeling methods are based on the segmentation process, this paper proposed to extract key points directly for building modeling without segmentation. The method was applied to simulated and real data sets with various roof shapes. The results demonstrate feasibility of the proposed method through the accuracy analysis.

본 논문에서는 실내 또는 실외 환경에서의 비전 감시 시스템에 응용할 객체의 이벤트 인식 방법을 정의한다. 객체의 이벤트를 실시간으로 적용하기 위해서는 연산 시간이 적어야하며 이벤트 인식 정확률 또한 높아야 한다. 기존의 규칙 또는 확률 기반 이벤트 인식 방법은 객체의 움직임 이벤트에 대해 한정적이거나 객체의 특징 벡터 추출이 규칙에 어긋나는 경우 오류가 발생하여 이벤트 인식의 정확도가 떨어지는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 시간의 흐름에 따른 독립 객체의 특징 벡터와 확률 정보를 통해 정해진 규칙에 가장 가까운 상황에 대해 계속적으로 이루어지는 이벤트 인식 방법을 제안한다.

We propose a method that automatically classifies the images into the object and non-object images. An object image is the image with object(s). An object in an image is defined as a set of regions that lie around center of the image and have significant color distribution against the other surround (or background) regions. We define four measures based on the characteristics of an object to classify the images. The center significance is calculated from the difference in color distribution between the center area and its surrounding region. Second measure is the variance of significantly correlated colors in the image plane. Significantly correlated colors are first defined as the colors of two adjacent pixels that appear more frequently around center of an image rather than at the background of the image. Third one is edge strength at the boundary of candidate for the object. By the way, it is computationally expensive to extract third value because central objects are extracted. So, we define fourth measure which is similar with third measure in characteristic. Fourth one can be calculated more fast but show less accuracy than third one. To classify the images we combine each measure by training the neural network and SYM. We compare classification accuracies of these two classifiers.

본 논문은 컬러영상내 움직이는 객체의 효과적인 검출을 위해 색상과 위치정보를 적용시킨 K-means 클러스터링 알고리즘을 이용하여 움직이는 객체들을 추출한 방법을 제안하고 있다. 최종 클러스터링된 중심픽셀(prototype)이 갖고있는 RGB 값을 사용해 프레임을 비교해 객체와 배경의 분리를 가능하게 했고 마지막으로 후처리를 이용해 남아있는 배경잡음을 제거하였다. 본 연구의 실험은 여러 교통장면을 포함한 다양한 영상에서 이루어졌으며 실험결과 제안된 알고리즘은 기존의 픽셀이나 블록기반의 방법에 비해 보다 정확한 객체 검출이 가능했으며 한 가지 특징 정보를 사용한 클러스터링에 비해 보다 높은 정확도를 보였다.
