본 논문에서는 실시간 처리에 적합한 효율적인 동영상 객체 분할 알고리즘을 제시한다. 제안된 동영상 객체 분할 알고리즘은 임계치 적용과 지역적 워터쉐드 알고리즘을 복합적으로 적용하였다. 첫째로 임계치 분할방법을 사용하여 초기 객체 마스크를 구성하였고 이러한 초기객체 마스크는 현재영상에서의 영역분할을 위한 입력으로 들어가게 된다. 최종적으로 지역적인 워터쉐드 분할방법을 초기 객체영역의 불명확한 지역에서만 다시 수행하여 최종적인 객체영역을 획득하여 기존 방식에 비해 분할시간을 줄였으며 분할성능을 높였다. 본 논문에서는 잡음환경에서 객체를 추출하기위해 복합적인 분할방식에 초점을 두었다. 이러한 복합적인 분할방법을 사용함으로써 객체 마스크 추출성능의 향상과 수행시간절약을 가져올 수 있었다.

Edge detection is a technique that obtains the particular information of the image using the brightness variation of pixel values and utilized for preprocessing in various image processing sectors. The conventional edge detection methods such as Sobel, Prewitt and Roberts are processed by applying the same weighted value to the entire pixels regardless of pixel distribution and provides somewhat insufficient edge detection results. Therefore, this paper has proposed an edge detection algorithm considering the direction and size of pixels by applying a modified directional mask.

Character recognition is an image processing technique for obtaining the character information such as documents and automobile license plate and for this edge detection methods are commonly used. The previous edge detection methods are mostly applying the weighted value mask on the image and because it applies the same mask to the entire areas of the image, the processing results are somewhat insufficient. Therefore, this paper has proposed an edge detection algorithm by applying the weighted value mask considering the distribution and location of pixels to be suitable for the character recognition.

Thanks to the 4th industrial revolution and the development of various communication media, technologies such as artificial intelligence and automation are being grafted into industrial sites in various fields, and accordingly, the importance of data processing is increasing. Image noise removal is a pre-processing process for image processing, and is mainly used in fields requiring high-level image processing technology. Various studies have been conducted to remove noise, but various problems arise in the process of noise removal, such as image detail preservation, texture restoration, and noise removal in a special area. In this paper, we propose a switching mask filter based on the noise intensity to preserve the detailed image information during the impulse noise removal process. The proposed filter algorithm obtains the final output by switching to the extended mask when it is determined that the density is higher than the reference value when noise is determined in the area designated as the filtering mask. Simulation was conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, and the performance was analyzed compared to the existing method.

인쇄회로기판에 솔더 페이스트를 인쇄하기 위하여 스테인리스 스틸 (Stainless steel, (i.e., SUS)) 재질의 솔더 페이스트 인쇄용 스텐실 마스크가 사용되고 있다. 하지만, 솔더 페이스트가 스텐실 마스크에 쉽게 달라붙기 때문에 솔더 페이스트에 의한 오염으로 인하여 생산성이 떨어지며, 스텐실 마스크 수명이 짧아지는 문제점이 발생되고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 스텐실 마스크 표면에 소수성을 가진 고분자 코팅을 함으로써 솔더 페이스트가 쉽게 붙는 것을 억제하고자 하였다. 더욱 중요하게 스텐실 마스크에 전해연마 및 플라즈마 처리를 통한 표면 개질을 부여함으로써 고분자 코팅의 내구성을 향상시키고자 하였다.

This study was to investigate whether there are differences in subjective bad breath-related characteristics and psychological characteristics of sports masks printed with natural minerals compared with quarantine masks and cotton masks. The study subjects were divided into 30 people in the Sports Mask Group, 30 people in the KF Mask Group (KMG), and 30 people in the cotton mask group (CMG), and a total of 90 subjects participated in the study. It was randomly sent to use 1 mask per day and 3 masks for 3 days. The study period was conducted from October 15, 2020 to October 30, 2020. As a result of the study, there was no difference in the use of masks between the three groups in terms of bad breath health and dry mouth. However, the sports mask was superior to other masks in oral respiration and bad breath angle. As a result of analyzing psychological factors, there was no difference between the 3 groups for depression. However, in the stress factor, sports masks were superior to other masks in stress. The results of this study are valuable as suggesting the direction of use of functional masks, and we hope that they will be used as basic data for functional mask research to be studied in the future.

In modern society the image processing has been applied to various digital devices such as smartphone, digital camera, and digital TV. In the field of image processing the edge detection is one of the important parts in the image processing procedure. The image edge means point that the pixel value is changed between background and object rapidly, and includes the important information such as magnitude, location, and orientation. The performance of the existing edge detection method is insufficient for the image degraded by AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise) because it detects edges by using small weighted masks. Therefore, in this paper, to detect edge in AWGN environment effectively, we proposed an algorithm that detects edge as calculated gradient of sorting vector which is transformed by estimated mask from new pixel according to each region.

In this paper, a novel technique is presented for automatic brain region segmentation in single channel MR image data sets for 3D visualization and analysis. The method detects brain contours in 2D and 3D processing of four steps. The first and the second make a head mask and an initial brain mask by automatic thresholding using a curve fitting technique. The stage 3 reconstructs 3D volume of the initial brain mask by cubic interpolation and generates an intermediate brain mask using morphological operation and labeling of connected components. In the final step, the brain mask is refined by automatic thresholding using curve fitting. This algorithm is useful for fully automatic brain region segmentation of T1-weighted, T2-weighted, PD-weighted, SPGR MRI data sets without considering slice direction and covering a whole volume of a brain. In the experiments, the algorithm was applied to 20 sets of MR images and showed over 0.97 in comparison with manual drawing in similarity index.

As the digital image devices are widely used, interests in the software- and the hardware-related image processing become higher and the image processing techniques are applied in various fields such as object recognition, object detection, fingerprint recognition, and etc. For the edge detections Sobel, Prewitt, Laplacian, Roberts and Canny detectors are used and these existing methods can excellently detect the edges of the images without noise. However, in the images corrupted by the impulse noise, these methods are insufficent in noise elimination characteristics, showing unsatisfactory edge detection. Therefore in this paper, in order to obtain excellent edge detection characteristics in the corrupted image by the impulse noise, an detection algorithm is porposed, which uses the central pixel of mask divided by four regions along the axis, calculates the estimated mask according to the representing pixel values in each regions, and detects the final edges by applying the estimates mask and the new directional one.
