This paper proposes a new approach to eliminate the reflectance component for the detection of text in color images. Color images, printed by color printing technology, normally have an illumination component as well as a reflectance component. It is well known that a reflectance component usually obstructs the task of detecting and recognizing objects like texts in the scene, since it blurs out an overall image. We have developed an approach that efficiently removes reflectance components while preserving illumination components. We decided whether an input image hits Normal or Polarized for determining the light environment, using the histogram which consisted of a red component. We were able to go ahead through the ability to extract by reducing the blur phenomenon of text by light because reflection component by an illumination change and removed it and extracted text. The experimental results have shown a superior performance even when an image has a complex background. Text detection and recognition performance is influenced by changing the illumination condition. Our method is robust to the images with different illumination conditions.

Object tracking algorithms can reduce computational cost by avoiding computation over the whole image through the selection of region of interests based on object detection. So, accurate object detection is an important task for object tracking. The background subtraction algorithm has been widely used in moving object detection using a stationary camera. However, it has the problem of object detection error due to incorrect background modeling, whereas the method of background modeling has been improved by many researches. This paper proposes a new moving object detection algorithm to overcome the drawback of the conventional background subtraction algorithm by combining the background subtraction algorithm with the motion history image algorithm that is usually used in gesture detection. Although the proposed algorithm demands more processing time because of time taken for combining two algorithms, it meet the real-time processing requirement. Moreover, experimental results show that it has higher accuracy compared with the previous two algorithms.

본 논문에서는 입력 영상을 카메라의 자세 정보에 따라 적절히 와핑한 후 이들을 심(Seam)을 따라 이어붙인 360VR 에서 갑작스런 객체 출현에 의해 중첩 영역에서 발생하는 왜곡 문제를 해결할 방법을 제안한다. 임의의 객체가 나타났을 때, 객체의 윤곽선을 반영하여 심(Seam)을 재설정함으로써 객체가 우그러지거나, 잘려나가는 등의 왜곡 문제를 해결한다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 가우시안(Gaussian) 혼합 모델 기반 전경/배경분리에 의한 움직이는 객체 추출, 객체 윤곽선 검출, 윤곽선에 기반한 심(Seam) 조정, 새로운 심(Seam) 기반 스티칭으로 왜곡을 없애는 방법을 제안하였다. 그리고 이를 실제 촬영 영상에 적용하여 왜곡 개선 효과를 보였다.

최근 스마트 폰을 비롯한 휴대용 IT 기기의 급속한 보급으로 사용자에게 유익한 서비스를 제공하는 다양한 응용 프로그램에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 특히, 이러한 기기들에 기본적으로 장착되는 카메라를 통해 입력된 영상에 존재하는 객체를 효과적으로 인식할 수 있다면, 사용자에게 더욱 다양하고 유용한 서비스를 제공하는 것이 가능하다. 하지만 휴대용 기기의 경우 아직까지 성능의 제약으로 인해, 기존에 나와있는 다양한 객체 인식 방법을 그대로 적용하기에는 무리가 있다. 본 논문에서는 영상에 존재하는 객체들의 대표 지역 특징 표현자를 검출하여, 완전히 일치하는 객체뿐 아니라 유사한 객체의 경우에도 인식이 가능한 효과적인 다중 객체 인식 알고리즘을 제안하고 프로토타입 시스템을 통하여 그 성능을 평가한다.

This paper is proposed the wavelet morphology algorithm with the spatial auto-object segmentation concept and the clustering concept. When it is segmented the color face by using the proposed algorithm, it is made to the simple image. Also, it is used the spatial quality in order to segment and detect the image as a real time without the user's manufacturing. This removed a small part that is regarded as a noise in image by HSV color model and applied the wavelet morphology to remove a part excepting for the face image. In this paper, it is made a comparison between the wavelet morphology algorithm and the morphology algorithm. And It is showed to accurately detect the face object parts in the image appled to HSV color space model.

Identifying and searching for characters appearing in scenes during multimedia video editing is an arduous and time-consuming process. Applying artificial intelligence to labor-intensive media editing tasks can greatly reduce media production time, improving the creative process efficiency. In this paper, a method is proposed which combines existing artificial intelligence based techniques to automate character recognition and search tasks for video editing. Object detection, face detection, and pose estimation are used for character localization and face recognition and color space analysis are used to extract unique representation information.

Recently, the utilization of the object tracking algorithm based on the deep learning model is increasing. A system for tracking multiple objects in an image is typically composed of a chain form of an object detection algorithm and an object tracking algorithm. However, chain-type systems composed of several modules require a high performance computing environment and have limitations in their application to actual applications. In this paper, we propose a method that enables real-time operation in low-performance computing environment by adjusting the computational process of object detection module in the object detection-tracking chain type system.

This paper proposes an object-based image retrieval technique based on the dominant color pair information. Most of existing methods for content based retrieval extract the features from an image as a whole, instead of an object of interest. As a result, the retrieval performance tends to degrade due to the background colors. This paper proposes an object based retrieval scheme, in which an object of interest is used as a query and the similarity is measured on candidate regions of DB images where the object may exist. From the segmented image, the dominant color pair information between adjacent regions is used for selecting candidate regions. The similarity between the query image and DB image is measured by using the color correlogram technique. The dominant color pair information is robust against translation, rotation, and scaling. Experimental results show that the performance of the proposed method has been improved by reducing the errors caused by background colors.

폐쇄된 터널 내부에서는 사고가 일어날 경우 외부에서는 터널 내 상황을 알 수가 없어 경미한 사고라 하더라도 대형 후속 2차 사고로 이어질 가능성이 크다. 또한영상탐지로사고 상황의 오검출을 줄이기 위해서, 본 연구에서는기존의 많은 CNN 모델 중 보유한 데이터에 가장 적합한 모델을 선택하는 과정에서 가장 좋은 성능을 보인 VGG16 모델을 전이학습 시키고 fully connected layer의 일부 layer에 Dropout을 적용시켜 Overfitting을일부방지하는 CNN 모델을 생성한 뒤Yolo를 이용한 영상 내 객체인식, OpenCV를 이용한 영상 프레임 내에서 객체의ROI를 추출하고이를 CNN 모델과 비교하여오검출을 줄이면서 사고를 검출하는 시스템을 제안하였다.

폐쇄회로 TV는 우리의 생활에 밀접하게 접근할 수 있는 수준에 다다르게 되었다. 따라서 중요한 작업은 영상에서 우리가 원하는 개체를 검출해내는 것이라 할 수 있다. 그 중에서 사람의 모습을 촬영해서 사람의 특징을 추출하는 연구가 많이 진행되었고 이를 이용해서 실제 CCTV 영상을 토대로 개체를 검출해내는 시스템에 대해 고찰하였다. 여러 가지 개체 검출 알고리즘 중에서 오픈소스로 제공이 되며, 다중 개체를 검출하기 위해서 Haar-like feature를 이용한 개체 추출 알고리즘을 이용하여 CCTV 다중대체 검출에 대해 실험을 진행하였다. 정지영상에서는 정면을 응시하는 얼굴영역 검출에서는 높은 성능을 보이며 다른 각도에서는 차이가 있지만 무난한 성능을 보이지만 실시간에서는 보정 작업이 필요하게 되었다.
