To increase road safety at blackspots, it is needed to develop a new method that can process before accident occurrence. Accident situation could result from traffic conflict. Traffic conflict decision technique has an advantage that can acquire and analyze data in time and confined space that is less through investigation. Therefore, traffic conflict technique is highly expected to be used in many application of road safety. This study developed traffic conflict decision program that can analyze and process from signalized intersection image. Program consists of the following functional modules: an image input module that acquires images from the CCTV camera, a Save-to-Buffer module which stores the entered images by differentiating them into background images, current images, difference images, segmentation images, and a conflict detection module which displays the processed results. The program was developed using LabVIEW 8.5 (a graphic language) and the VISION module library.

This paper proposes a tree-based hierarchical image mosaicing system using camera and object parameters for efficient video database construction. Gray level histogram difference and average intensity difference are proposed for scene change detection of input video. Camera parameter measured by utilizing least sum of square difference and affine model, and difference image is used for similarity measure of two input images. Also, dynamic objects are searched by through macro block setting and extracted by using region splitting and 4-split detection methods. Dynamic trajectory evaluation function is used for expression of dynamic objects, and blurring is performed for construction of soft and slow mosaic image.

In this study, we propose facial image recognition based on wavelet transform and neural network. This algorithm is proposed by following processes. First, two gray level images is captured in constant illumination and, after removing input image noise using a gaussian filter, differential image is obtained between background and face input image, and this image has a process of erosion and dilation. Second, a mask is made from dilation image and background and facial image is divided by projecting the mask into face input image Then, characteristic area of square shape that consists of eyes, a nose, a mouth, eyebrows and cheeks is detected by searching the edge of divided face image. Finally, after characteristic vectors are extracted from performing discrete wavelet transform(DWT) of this characteristic area and is normalized, normalized vectors become neural network input vectors. And recognition processing is performed based on neural network learning. Simulation results show recognition rate of 100 % about learned image and 92% about unlearned image.

폐 기관지는 외부의 공기를 폐까지 전달해주는 역할을 하고 있다. 이는 병리학적, 해부학적으로 중요한 역할을 하고 있으며, 의사들에게는 기관지의 상태를 시각적으로 쉽게 판독을 할 수 있다면 폐에서 발생하는 기관지염(bronchitis), 기관지 확장증(bronchiectasis), 폐기종(pulmonary emphysema), 결핵(tuberculosis), 기흉(pneumothorax)등 여러 가지 병명을 쉽게 판독이 가능하다. 지금까지 폐 기관지에 대한 연구가 지속적으로 진행 되었으며, 2D CT 영상에서의 주변의 밀도차가 유사한 폐실 질에서의 폐기관지를 추출해 내는 것은 어려움을 Gray-scale Reconstruction과 임계치를 이용하여 추출하였다. 이는 3D 구성을 위한 전 단계로 인체 내부의 장기를 가상의 영상을 실제와 가까운 영상으로 구현하는데 쓰인다.

We proposed a numerical calculation of the proportion of necrotic cells in pulmonary segmentation, pulmonary vessel segmentation lung disease site for diagnosis of lung disease from chest CT images. The first step is to separate the lungs and bronchi by applying a three-dimensional labeling technique from a chest CT image and a three-dimensional region growing method. The second step is to divide the pulmonary vessels by applying the rate of change using the first order polynomial regression, perform noise reduction, and divide the final pulmonary vessels. The third step is to find a disease prediction factor in a two-step image and calculate the proportion of necrotic cells.

In this paper, we propose an automatic segmentation of the meniscus based on active shape model using interpolated shape information in MR images. First, the statistical shape model of meniscus is constructed to reflect the shape variation in the training set. Second, the generation technique of interpolated shape information by using the weight according to shape similarity is proposed to robustly segment the meniscus with large variation. Finally, the automatic meniscus segmentation is performed through the active shape model fitting. For the evaluation of our method, we performed the visual inspection, accuracy measure and processing time. For accuracy evaluation, the average distance difference between automatic segmentation and semi-automatic segmentation are calculated and visualized by color-coded mapping. Experimental results show that the average distance difference was $0.54{\pm}0.16mm$ in medial meniscus and $0.73{\pm}0.39mm$ in lateral meniscus. The total processing time was 4.87 seconds on average.

현대 사회에서 가스 산업은 기반 기순 산업으로 영향력이 매우 커지고 있으며, 동시에 위험요소를 내포하고 있다. 본 논문은 가스밸브의 연결부분에서 폭발성 발화물질인 오일성분에 의한 안전사고를 방지하고자 유지분 검출시스템을 개발하였다. 용기 밸브의 영상을 $200{\times}200$ 크기의 흑백 이미지로 획득하고, 제안한 유지분 검출 알고리즘을 적용한다. 먼저, 영상에 소벨(Sobel) 연산자를 이용하여 에지(Edge)를 검출하고 오일이 존재하는 영상과 오일이 존재하지 않는 영상을 영상프로파일(image profile) 분석과 영상 감법 둥의 검출방법으로 비교 분석하였다. 첫 번째 방법은 영상프로파일기법으로 3가지 영역인 부분영역, 하위영역, 전체영역으로 오일을 삽입한 후 다항식 근사로 오일의 존재여부를 판별하였고, 두 번째는 영상감법으로 밸브의 특정한 위치에 위치조정표시를 한 후 두 영상의 차를 구하였다. 실험에서는 제안한 검출방법의 실용화 가능성을 확인하였다.

장면 전환 검출을 위한 기존의 주요 방법은 대부분 화소값 차이, 통계적 차이, 그리고 일반적으로 가장 많이 사용하는 히스토그램 비교법등이었다. 이러한 방법에서는 각 비디오 프레임내에 포함되어 있는 영상의 내용 변화에 의한 장면 전환을 검출하기가 어렵고 히스토그램이 비슷한 경우 장면 전환 검출을 할 수 없었다. 본 논문에서는 비디오 시퀀스로부터 빠른 움직임을 포함하는 장면의 변화를 검출하는 객체의 중심점을 이용한 영역분할기법을 제안하였다. 제안하는 방법은 두 개의 프레임간 차영상을 이용해서 명암차를 추출한 후 화소값과 객체 영역의 중심점을 구한 후 사등분 분할하여 영역객체의 평균 및 분산값을 이용해서 내용에 의한 장면 전환도 검출하였다. 실험결과 제안된 방법에 의한 장면 전환 검출은 기존의 다른 방법에 비해 더 나은 성능을 얻었다.

Suncheon Bay is a very important natural resource and various efforts have been made to protect it from the environmental pollution. Although the project to monitor the environmental changes in periodically by observing the creatures in tidal flats is processing, it is being done inefficiently by people directly observing it. In this paper, we propose an object segmentation method that can be applied to the method to automatically monitor the living creatures in the tidal flats. In the proposed method, a foreground map representing the location of objects is obtained by using a temporal difference method, and a superpixel method is applied to detect the detailed boundary of an image. Finally the region of crab is extracted by combining the foreground map and the superpixel information. Experimental results show that the proposed method separates crab regions from a tidal flat image easily and accurately.
