3D integral imaging technique with an active mask is capable of displaying real 3D images with high resolution in space. In this paper, we present a novel 3D/2D convertible integral imaging display system using an active mask. For the proposed method, the principles of 3D, 2D, and 3D/2D composed operations are explained according to the displayed images through two LCD panels. In 3D mode, the elemental images and the mask images are displayed in two display panels. On the other hand, the light source image and 2D image are displayed in 2D mode. In addition, 3D/2D mode is obtained using the spatial separation for 3D and 2D modes. To show the feasibility of the proposed method, we carry out the preliminary experiments and present the optical results.

In ROI processing of JPEG2000, a region of large image indicated by the user must be processed preferentially, because it takes a considerable amount of time to display the full image. When the user indicates a region of the outlined image, then the browser masks the region and sends the mask information to the server that transmitted the outlined image. The server that receives the mask information preferentially sends the corresponding code blocks. Here, a quick generation of mask information is important. In this paper, we use 48 predefined mask patterns, which are defined according to the distribution shape of ROI and background to reduce the computing time. As a result, compared to other methods that precisely handles the ROI and background, the processing time of the method is remarkably reduced, but the quality is short of the existing methods just a little bit.

In this paper, we apply DCM(Dilation of Color and Motion information) mask and Active Contour Models(Snakes) to extract facial outline in moving pictures with complex background. First, we propose DCM mask which is made by applying morphology dilation and AND operation to combine facial color and motion information, and use this mask to detect facial region without complex background and to remove noise in image energy. Also, initial curves are automatically set according to rotational degree estimated with geometric ratio of facial elements to overcome the demerit of Active Contour Models which is sensitive to initial curves. And edge intensity and brightness are both used as image energy of snakes to extract contour at parts with weak edges. For experiments, we acquired total 480 frames with various head-poses of sixteen persons with both eyes shown by taking pictures in inner space and also by capturing broadcasting images. As a result, it showed that more elaborate facial contour is extracted at average processing time of 0.28 seconds when using interpolated initial curves according to facial rotation degree and using combined image energy of edge intensity and brightness.

We report a new method for highly controllable local patterning of a hydrogel on microfabricated cantilevers and fabrication of all hydrogel microcantilevers. We constructed a dynamic mask based photolithography setup using a commercial beam projector, a 3-axis microstage and other optical components. Dynamic masks generated from the beam projector controlled the shape, size, and position of hydrogel patterns while the 3-axis microstage mainly controlled the thickness of hydrogel patterns and hydrogel microcantilevers. Using the constructed setup, polyethyleneglycol diacrylate (PEGDA) was patterned on microfabricated cantilevers in a highly controlled manner. Currently, the smallest PEGDA patternable is a 5-${\mu}m$-diameter circle with a thickness of ~$10{\mu}m$. To confirm thicknesses of patterned PEGDAs on silicon microcantilevers, resonance frequencies of microcantilevers were measured before and after each PEGDA patterning. Thicknesses extracted from resonance measurements showed good agreement with measurements using an optical microscope. In addition, PEGDA microcantilevers with various dimensions and thicknesses were fabricated on glass and silicon substrates. Surfaces of fabricated all hydrogel microcantilevers were flat enough to facilitate other post processing and to be used for various sensing applications.

To support dynamic Region-of-Interest(ROI) in JPEG2000, a fast ROI mask generation is needed. In the existing methods of ROI coding, after scanning all the pixels in order and discriminating ROI, an ROI mask has been generated. Our method scans 4 pixels of the corners in one code block, and then based on those informations, scans the edges from the corners to get the boundaries of ROI and background. These informations are consisted of a distributed information of ROI and two coordinates of the pixels, which are the points the edges and the boundaries meet. These informations are transmitted to encoder and supported for fast ROI mask generation. There were no great differences between the proposed method and the existing methods in quality, but the proposed method showed superiority in speed.

Facial masks have become indispensable in daily life to prevent infection and spread through respiratory droplets in the era of the corona pandemic. To understand how effective two different types of masks (i.e., KF-94 mask and dental mask) are in blocking respiratory droplets, i) we preferentially analyze wettability characteristics (e.g., contact angle and contact angle hysteresis) of filters consisting of each mask, and ii) subsequently observe the dynamic behaviors of microdroplets impacting at high velocities on the filter surfaces. Different wetting properties (i.e., hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity) are found to exhibit depending on the constituent materials and pore sizes of each filter. In addition, the pneumatic conditions for stably and uniformly dispensing microdroplets with a certain volume and impacting behaviors associated with the impacting velocity and filter type change are systematically explored. Three distinctive dynamics (i.e., no penetration, capture, and penetration) after droplet impacting are observed depending on the type of filter constituting the masks and droplet impact velocity. The present experimental results not only provide very useful information in designing of face masks for prevention of transmission of infectious respiratory diseases, but also are helpful for academic researches on droplet impacts on various porous surfaces.

In this paper, we propose a sequence of method which extrats ROIs(Region of Interests) rapidly from the parcel image of large size. In the proposed method, original image is spilt into the small masks, and the meaningful masks, the ROIs, are extracted by two criterions sequentially The first criterion is difference of pixel value between Inner points, and the second is deviation of it. After processing, some informational ROIs-the areas of bar code, characters, label and the outline of object-are acquired. Using diagonal axis of each ROI and the feature of various 2D bar code, the area of 2D bar code can be extracted from the ROIs. From an experiment using above methods, various ROIs are extracted less than 200msec from large-size parcel image, and 2D bar code region is selected by the accuracy of 100％.

본 논문에서는 텍스처 합성을 할 때 CNN을 사용하여 효율성을 높이고 방향을 고려하여 동적인 결과로 품질을 개선시킬 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 자유로운 회전 각도로 방향성을 고려하여 동적인 결과물을 생성할 수 있도록 하였으며, 기존 접근법인 사각형 형태의 마스크 블록이 아닌 다양한 회전 각도를 고려하여 학습을 했기 때문에 텍스처 합성 과정에서 방향성 특징을 좀 더 잘 표현할 수 있다.

In this paper, Dynamic Fault Tree algorithm(DFT algorithm) is presented. This algorithm provides a concise representation of dynamic fault tolerance system including fault recovery techniques with fault detection, mask and switching function. And this algorithm define FDEP, CSP, SEQ, PAG gate which captures the dynamic characteristics of system. It show that this algorithm solved the constraints to satisfy the dynamic characteristics of system which there are in Markov and also this is able to satisfy the dynamic characteristics of system which there are in Markov and also this is able to covered the disadvantage of Fault tree methods. To show the key advantage of this algorithm, a traditional method, that is, Markov and Fault Tree, applies to TMR and Dual-Duplex systems with the dynamic characteristic and a presented method applies to those. He results proved that the DFT algorithm for solving the problems of the system is more effective than the Markov and Fault tree analysis model..

In this study, we propose a revised dynamic ROI (Region-of-Interest) coding method in which the focused ROI is automatically extracted without help from users during the recovery process of low DOF (Depth-of-Field) JPEG2000 image. The proposed method creates edge mask information using high frequency sub-band data on a specific level in DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform), and then identifies the edge code block for a high-speed ROI extraction. The algorithm scans the edge mask data in four directions by the unit of code block and identifies the edge code block simply and fastly using a edge threshold. As the results of experimentation applying for Implicit method, the proposed method showed the superiority in the side of speed and quality comparing to the existing methods.
