Sumi-e is one of the art work that uses not only ink line but also color painting. This technique is well known as a representative Asian painting style and widely used in movie, advertisement poster and various effect in camera device. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that can generate result image with Sumi-e effects of example image based on computer graphics and image processing techniques. For this, we pass two steps. The first is painting expression step. We used texture transfer technique to generate result with texture effect of reference image by analyzing numerically. The second step is ink-painting effect generation step. We express ink-painting effect in outline by considering intensity variation in edge of example image. Our algorithm can express various Sumi-e style based on selected reference image. So it can be utilized to various contents generating research.

In this paper, the wavelet watermarking algorithm based on adaptive weight MASK processing as a watermark embedded-method for Copyright Protection of Digital contents is Proposed. Because watermark induce as a noise of original image, the watermark size should be limited for preventing quality losses and embedding watermark into images. Therefore, it should be preserve the best condition of the factors, robustness, capacity and visual quality. Tn order to solve this problem, we propose watermarking embedded method by applying adaptive weight MASK to the algorithm and optimize its efficiency. In that result, the watermarked images are improved about external attack. Specifically, correlation coefficient has over 0.8 on both modifications of brightness and contrast. Also, correlation coefficient of wavelet compression of embedded watermark last by over 0.65.

In this paper, we propose a super-resolution algorithm using an adaptive weighted interpolation(AWI) and discrete wavelet transform(DWT). In general, super-resolution algorithms for single-image, probability based operations have been used for searching high-frequency components. Consequently, the complexity of the algorithm is increased and it causes the increase of processing time. In the proposed algorithm, we first find high-frequency sub-bands by using DWT. Then we apply an AWI to the obtained high-frequency sub-bands to make them have the same size as the input image. Now, the interpolated high-frequency sub-bands and input image are properly combined and perform the inverse DWT. For the experiments, we use the down-sampled version of the original image($512{\times}512$) as a test image($256{\times}256$). Through experiment, we confirm the improved efficiency of the proposed algorithm comparing with interpolation algorithms and also save the processing time comparing with the probability based algorithms even with the similar performance.

A lot of fire and crime accidents are caused to a significant national loss. For example, the network and power facilities in national industry facilities, the fire risk region in large scale factories such as nuclear and thermal power plants, large-sized buildings, cultural properties, metal and steel mills, chemical plants, oil refineries. The development of a fire detection system that can detects the temperature and movement of objects as high-level quality is essential to prevent these incidents and accidents fundamentally. In this paper, the fire detection system based on infrared thermal imaging & CCD camera id designed to solve these problems.

This paper is related to an Object VR-based virtual textile wearing system carrying out textile texture mapping based on viewpoint vector estimation and intensity difference map. The proposed system is characterized as capable of virtually wearing a new textile pattern selected by the user to the clothing shape section segmented from multi-view 2D images of clothes model for Object VR(Object Virtual Reality), and three-dimensionally viewing its virtual wearing appearance at multi-view points of the object. Regardless of color or intensity of model clothes, the proposed system is possible to virtually change the textile pattern with holding the properties of the selected clothing shape section, and also to quickly and easily simulate, compare, and select multiple textile pattern combinations for individual styles or entire outfits. The proposed system can provide higher practicality and easy-to-use interface, as it makes real-time processing possible in various digital environment, and creates comparatively natural and realistic virtual wearing styles, and also makes semi-automatic processing possible to reduce the manual works.

최근의 영상 처리 분야는 딥러닝 기법들의 성능이 입증됨에 따라 다양한 분야에서 이와 같은 기법들을 활용해 영상에 대한 분류, 분석, 검출 등을 수행하려는 시도가 활발하다. 그중에서도 의료 진단 보조 역할을 할 수 있는 의료 영상 분석 소프트웨어에 대한 기대가 증가하고 있는데, 본 연구에서는 캡슐내시경 영상에 주목하였다. 캡슐내시경은 주로 소장 촬영을 목표로 하며 식도부터 대장까지 약 8~10시간 동안 촬영된다. 이로 인해 CT, MR, X-ray와 같은 다른 의료 영상과 다르게 하나의 데이터 셋이 10~15만 장의 이미지를 갖는다. 일반적으로 캡슐내시경 영상을 판독하는 순서는 위장관 교차점(Z-Line, 유문판, 회맹판)을 기준으로 위장관 랜드마크(식도, 위, 소장, 대장)를 구분한 뒤, 각 랜드마크 별로 병변 정보를 찾아내는 방식이다. 그러나 워낙 방대한 영상 데이터를 가지기 때문에 의사 혹은 의료 전문가가 영상을 판독하는데 많은 시간과 노력이 소모되고 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 캡슐내시경 영상의 판독에서 모든 환자에 대해 공통으로 수행되고, 판독하는 데 많은 시간을 차지하는 위장관 랜드마크를 찾는 것에 있다. 이를 위해, 위장관 랜드마크를 식별할 수 있는 CNN 학습 모델을 설계하였으며, 더욱 효과적인 학습을 위해 전처리 과정으로 학습에 방해가 되는 학습 노이즈 영상들을 제거하고 위장관 랜드마크 별 특징 분석을 진행하였다. 총 8명의 환자 데이터를 가지고 학습된 모델에 대해 평가 및 검증을 진행하였는데, 무작위로 환자 데이터를 샘플링하여 학습한 모델을 평가한 결과, 평균 정확도가 95% 가 확인되었으며 개별 환자별로 교차 검증 방식을 진행한 결과 평균 정확도 67% 가 확인되었다.

본 논문에서는 지역 최빈값과 가중치를 이용하여 새로운 히스토그램 평활화 방법을 제안한다. 여러 개의 평균명도값을 사용하여 히스토그램을 분할하는 기존 방식과는 달리 지역 최빈값과 전체 평균명도값을 사용하여 히스토그램을 분할한다. 지역 최빈값 산출 과정에서 지역의 범위를 조정할 수 있어 융통성 있는 히스토그램 분할 처리가 가능하다. 또한 히스토그램 분할 영역을 가중치에 기반해 새로운 영역의 히스토그램으로 분할한다. 해당 방법을 통해 발생빈도가 높은 명도의 과도한 변화 없이 화질개선 면에서 기존 히스토그램 평활화보다 좋은 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 다양한 크기와 히스토그램 분포를 가지는 영상을 대상으로 실험한 결과, 기존 히스토그램 평활화보다 광범위하게 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였고 특히 한쪽으로 치우쳐진 영상에 있어 더욱 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

The objective of this paper is to determine the conditions of road surface by utilizing the images collected from closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras installed on roadside. First, a technique was examined to detect wet surfaces at nighttime. From the literature reviews, it was revealed that image processing using polarization is one of the preferred options. However, it is hard to use the polarization characteristics of road surface images at nighttime because of irregular or no light situations. In this study, we proposes a new discriminant for detecting wet and dry road surfaces using CCTV image data at night. To detect the road surface conditions with night vision, we applied the wavelet packet transform for analyzing road surface textures. Additionally, to apply the luminance feature of night CCTV images, we set the intensity histogram based on HSI(Hue Saturation Intensity) color model. With a set of 200 images taken from the field, we constructed a detection criteria hyperplane with SVM (Support Vector Machine). We conducted field tests to verify the detection ability of the wet road surfaces and obtained reliable results. The outcome of this study is also expected to be used for monitoring road surfaces to improve safety.
