This paper proposes two new image contrast enhancement methods, RSWHE (Recursively Separated and Weighted Histogram Equalization) and RSWHS (Recursively Separated and Weighted Histogram Specification). RSWHE is a histogram equalization method based on histogram decomposition and weighting, whereas RSWHS is a histogram specification method based on histogram decomposition and weighting. The two proposed methods work as follows: 1) decompose an input histogram based on the image's mean brightness, 2) compute the probability for the area corresponding to each sub-histogram, 3) modify the sub-histogram by weighting it with the computed probability value, 4) lastly, perform histogram equalization (in the case of RSWHE) or histogram specification (in the case of RSWHS) on the modified sub-histograms independently. Experimental results show that RSWHE and RSWHS outperform other methods in terms of contrast enhancement and mean brightness preservation as well.

KITSAT-3, the third satellite of KITSAT series which has been developed for the last four and half years with purely Korean design and implementation technology, was launched successfully at last. All subsystems were tested and validated during the initial operation of the satellite. During the initaial operation phase, the Earth imaging camera on board KITSAT-3 acquisited several tens of scenes all over the world and transmitted the image data to ground station. The quality of images and the reliability of data transmission-reception system were tested qualititively and quantititively, respectively. In this paper, we summarize the camera, data handling, on-board memory, and image data transmission system of KITSAT-3 as well as the image receiving and archiving system in ground station. The error rate of image data transmission and reception was tested during the initial operation phase. The average data transmission error rate satisfied the initial requirement of less than 1%. The error rate will be reduced through the continuous work of test and stabilization of the ground system hardware.

3세대 이후의 이동통신시스템에서는 고속 및 대용량 전송을 통해 동영상, 영화, 방송 등 은 종류의 멀티미디어 서비스들이 제공될 것으로 전망된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 서비스들의 제공이 가능한 3세대 이후 시스템으로 개발되고 있는 High-Speed Mobile Multimedia (HMm) 시스템을 매체접근제어 (MAC) 프로토콜을 중심으로 소개한다. HMm MAC 프로토콜은 광대역 무선 환경 하에서 고속의 그리고 효과적인 멀티미디어 전송을 목표로 설계되었다. 이러한 HMm MAC 프로토콜은 기지국 MAC과 단말 MAC의 두 서브시스템으로 나뉘며, 각 서브시스템은 상태관리, 전송제어, 버퍼관리, 임의 접근제어, 패킷 스케줄링 등의 기능을 수행한다.

In this paper, we present a document image compression system based on segmentation, Quincunx downsampling, (5/3) wavelet lifting and subband-oriented SPIHT coding. We reduced the coding time by the adaptation of subband-oriented SPIHT coding and Quincunx downsampling. And to increase compression rate further, we applied arithmetic coding to the bitstream of SPIHT coding output. Finally, we present the reconstructed images for visual comparison and also present the compression rates and PSNR values under various scalar quantization methods.

Multimedia documents can be transferred quickly and easily across the Internet, and has attracted considerable interest in multimedia security and multimedia copyright protection. This paper proposes an animage watermarking scheme embedding a binary watermark image using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) coefficients. The original image is transformed to the wavelet domain and decomposed in subbands. The binary watermark image, as a sequence of bits, is embedded into the middle frequency subbands. The original image is not needed to detect the watermark image. The proposed method detected fewer watermark bits but produced an approximately 10dB higher PSNR than the max/min method.

This paper reports the geolocation accuracy of KOMPSAT-3 imagery. KOMPSAT-3 was launched successfully on May 18, 2012 and has been released last March. In this paper, we have checked the geolocation accuracy of initial sensor model, precise sensor model and stereo-and multi-image model using four KOMPSAT-3 images covering the same area. The KOMPSAT-3 images without GCPs provided the geolocation accuracy of about 30m and the geocorrected KOMPSAT-3 images provided the geolocation accuracy of about 1m or less. KOMPSAT-3 stereo- and multi-images models yield threedimensional points with sub-meter accuracy in horizontal and vertical direction. Overall, KOMPSAT-3 showed much improved performance in terms of the geolocation accuracy over KOMPSAT-2. KOMPSAT-3 is expected to be able to replace foreign satellite data with sub-meter accuracy level for achieving accurate geometric information.

Image enhancement algorithm aims to improve the visual quality of low contrast image through eliminating the noise and blurring, increasing contrast, and raising detail. This paper proposes adaptive dynamic range linear stretching(ADRLS) algorithm based on advantages of existing methods. ADRLS method is focused on generating sub-histograms of the majority through partitioning the histogram of input image and applying adaptive scale factor. Generated sub-histograms are finally applied by linear stretching(LS) algorithm. In order to validate proposed method, it is compared with LS and histogram equalization(HE) algorithm generally used. As the result, the proposed method show to improve contrast of input image and to preserve distinct characteristics of histogram by controlling excessive change of brightness.

This study examines the forms and current status of online performance content production in the field of the performing arts through diversified video media platforms. For this, it studied the leading case of Cirque du Soleil Entertainment and analyzed the unique brand value innovation elements of Cirque du Soleil, the background and current status of the digital hub platform of "Cirque Connect", and its various sub-contents that have diversified original contents. Digital platform applications and sub-content production in the field of the performing arts require an understanding of the needs of the public, who are familiar with media content appreciation, and strategic planning that takes into consideration everything from the initial stages of performance planning to the creation of varied sub-contents. This will promote the improvement of sub-content quality and increase the product value of digital contents in the performing arts through distinctions made from other various forms of cultural and artistic contents. environments in which information from various perspectives related to performance works can easily be accessed through online platforms will enhance the popularity of the performing arts field and allow the performing arts industry to expand its base in rapidly changing cultural enjoyment methods. For the performing arts field to be competitive within cultural trends that are being diversified, the most important tasks to be completed are gaining brand value innovation that enhances the artistic and cultural value of performance works and based on this, producing various sub-contents.

본 논문에서는 디지털 컨텐츠 저작권 보호를 위해 강인성과 비가시성의 유지를 위한 보다 효과적인 방법으로 웨이브릿 변환에서 적응적 워터마크 삽입강도를 갖는 지각적 데이터 은닉 모델을 제안한다. 먼저 영상을 9/7 쌍직교 웨이브릿 필터를 사용해 4레벨로 다해상도 분해한다. 다음으로 연속부대역 양자화(successive subband quantization)를 통한 시각적 중요계수(perceptually significant coefficient: PSC)들을 선정하여 선택된 계수들에 대해서만 워터마크 정보를 삽입한다. 지각 모델은 정상상태의 일반화 가우시안 모델(generalized gaussian model)로 추정된 NVF(noise visibility function)로 에지와 텍스쳐영역 그리고 평탄영역에 따라 각각 적응적으로 삽입되게 한다. 이는 각 서브밴드 내의 분산과 형상계수(shape parameter)에 의해 결정된다. 적응적 워터마크의 삽입강도를 갖기 위해 에지와 텍스쳐영역의 삽입강도는 각 서브밴드의 주파수 감도(frequency sensitivity)로 결정되고, 평탄영역의 삽입강도는 영상의 국부적 특성에 근거한 통계적 가중치를 사용한다. 삽입되는 워터마크는 랜덤시퀀스로 N(0,1)이다. 여러 가지 공격에 대한 실험으로 제안한 방법의 비가시성과 강인성을 확인한다.
