뇌 MR 영상의 분석을 통해 질환을 자동적으로 진단하고 판별을 하기 위한 전처리 단계에서 정상인의 MR 영상 모델과 현재 고려되어지는 대상 영상과의 비교 작업이 요구된다. 이를 통해 보다 정확한 질병에 대한 근거를 제시함으로서 진단이 가능하게 된다. 이러한 비교 작업을 위해 우선적으로 해결해야 하는 것이 현재 대상 영상이 정상인의 MR 영상 시리즈 중 어느 위치의 영상과 일치하는 지를 판별해야 한다. 실질적으로 뇌 MR 시리즈는 영상의 특징에 따라 크게 몇 개의 그룹으로 분류된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 매핑을 위한 각 구성 요소의 특징을 추출해 자동으로 뇌 영상의 그룹핑을 함으로써 매핑시 고려되어지는 슬라이드의 범위를 좁혀줄 뿐만 아니라 영상의 질에 따라 부분적인 손실이 있다 하더라도 전후 관계 정보를 이용하여 유추가 가능한 방법을 제시한다. 800여개의 T2 MR 강조 영상에 대해서 실험을 행하여 비교적 정확한 그룹핑 결과를 유도할 수 있었음을 확인하였다.

For low contrast images, a histogram equalization is possible to easily identify information when the intensity is concentrated in an image. Over contrast enhancement is the problem of generating an unnatural image cognitively because the focus of existing techniques was the contrast enhancement. In order to solve this problem, CLAHE method solves unnatural problems by limiting contrast using a maximum threshold. However, this method has an extra problem that concealed detail information in an image. This paper proposes a detail-map based on the multiple layers block overlapped histogram equalization in order to avoid loss of detail information. Loss of detail information has been made to minimize as combining images with limited contrast enhancement using a detail-map in each layers.

In this paper We propose the new lossless compression method which use Huffman Coding using the preprocessing to compress the still image. The proposed methode divide into two parts according to activity of the image. If activities are high, the original Huffman Coding method was used directly. IF activities are low, the nibble run-length coding and the bit dividing method was used. The experimental results show that compression rate of the proposed method was better than the general Huffman Coding method.

Medical images are being managed more by PACS in general medical institutions. It is important to protect patients from being invaded their privacy related to the images. It is also necessary to confirm the ownership, the right of property of the medical images and notice whether the data are modified. In this paper, we propose a robust watermarking against RST attacks in medical images on the PACS. The proposed scheme modifies and improves Log-Polar Mapping and Fourier Mellin Transform in order to realize and recover serious image degradation and watermark data loss caused by the conversion between cartesian coordinate and log-polar coordinate. We used the radius and theta Look Up Table to solve the realization of the Fourier Mellin Transform, and inserted a watermark into 2D-DFT magnitudes using Spread Spectrum. Experimental results shows that this method are robust to rotation attack.

This paper proposes a new algorithm that improve color component of compensated image using Retinex method for back-light image. A back-light image has two regions, one of the region is too bright and the other one is too dark. If an back-light image is improved contrast using Retinex method, it loses color information in the part of brightness of the image. In order to make up loss information, proposed algorithm adds color components from original image. The histogram can be divided three parts that brightness, darkness, midway using K-mean (k=3) algorithm. For the brightness, it is used color information of the original image. For the darkness, it is converted using by Retinex method. The midway region is mixed between original image and Retinex result image in the ratio of histogram. The ratio is determined by distance from dark area. The proposed algorithm was tested on nature back-light images to evaluate performance, and the experimental result shows that proposed algorithm is more robust than original Retinex algorithm.

Microscopic specimen was captured by an integral imaging microscope and displayed as a three-dimensional image by an integral imaging display system. We applied the generalized relationship between pickup and display using two different lens arrays to our integral imaging microscope and display system. In order to display three-dimensional microscopic image, scaling of the captured elemental images is required. We analyzed the effect of the scaling coefficient in terms of the distortion of the displayed three-dimensional image and the loss of the captured elemental images. In our experiment, microscopic specimen is picked up by an integral imaging microscope having $125{\mu}m$ elemental lens pitch and displayed as three-dimensional image by an integral imaging display system having 1mm elemental lens pitch. The scaling coefficient was chosen to minimize the elemental image loss.

In this paper, we propose a method obtaining an improved panoramic image with forward warping transformation and bilinear interpolation in recovering information lost during the transforming process. The proposed fish-eyed image restructuring method is verified to be sufficiently effective in the experiment with various forms of fish-eyed lens images.

H.263 부호화 기법에 비해 H.263+에서의 주용 특징중 하나는 에러 강인성으로, 그중에서 계층부호화 모드는 한 개의 송신 영상에 대해서도 복호기와 전송로에 따라 여러 가지 화질의 재생 영상을 얻을 수 있는 기능, 즉 에러 및 패킷 손실 발생 가능 채널에서 비디오 정보 전송시 디코더측에서 사용 가능한 다양한 비트율, 해상도, 디스플레이 율을 허용함으로써 비디오 정보에 대한 전송을 향상시키는 기법이다. FEC(Forward Error Correction)기법에 의한 부가적인 비트 삽입에 제한적인 저 대역폭 네트워크 및 무선 통신망과 같은 네트워크 환경에서는 ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode)망에서와 같인 계층부호화된 비트 스트림의 기본 계층에 대해 무손실 전송이 어려우므로, 고급계층과 동등한 채널을 통해 전송시 기본계층 및 고급계층 모두에 대해서는 에러가 발생 할 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 저대역폭 비디오 전송을 위해 계층 부호화 모드중 SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) 계층부호화로 부호화된 비트스트림을 에러 발생가능 채널로 전송시 각 계층에 대한 에러의 영향력을 실험한다.

The oxidation states of structural Fe in minerals reflect the paleo-depositional redox conditions for the biologically or abiotically induced mineral formation. Particularly, nano-scale analysis using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) is necessary to identify evidence for the microbial role in the biomineralization. HRTEM-EELS analysis of oxidation states of structural Fe and carbon bonding structure differentiate biological factors in mineralization by mapping the distribution of Fe(II)/Fe(III) and source of organic C. HRTEM-EELS technique provides geomicrobiologists with the direct nano-scale evidence of microbe-mineral interaction.
