본 논문은 움직임 벡터 재 산출 방법에 있어서 제한된 영역 내의 움직임 벡터 재 탐색 과정을 보다 효율적으로 운용함으로써 기존의 방법보다 빠르게 동작하는 크기조절 트랜스코딩 방법을 제안한다 기존의 크기조절 비디오 트랜스코딩은 크기 조절된 비디오의 정형화된 재 산출 과정을 통해 움직임 벡터를 구하고, 화질 열화의 최소화를 위해 재 산출된 움직임 벡터를 제한된 탐색 영역 내재 탐색을 통해 좀더 정확한 움직임 벡터를 구하는 방법을 사용한다 그러나 움직임 벡터 재 탐색과정은 않은 계산이 요구되어 속도 저하의 원인이 되며, 비디오의 특성에 따라 움직임 벡터 재 탐색 과정이 불필요한 경우가 발생한다. 따라서, 움직임이 없는 비디오에 대해서는 움직임 벡터 재탐색 과정을 수행하지 않음으로써 트랜스코딩 과정의 수행 속도를 개선하고, 움직임이 많은 프레임에 대해서는 움직임 벡터 재 탐색을 수행하여 화질 열화를 최소화하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법을 적용하였을 때. 움직임이 적은 비디오일수록 화질 열화 없이 트랜스코딩 속도가 약 15%의 향상된 성능을 얻었다.

In this paper, we proposed an extended edge-based line averaging method for deinterlacing with restricted search range. Conversion from interlaced signal to non-interlaced signal is one of important issues. Conventional deinterlacing algorithms usually utilize edge-based line average algorithm(ELA) within pixel-by-pixel approach. However, it is very sensitive to noise and variation of intensity. To reduce the sensitivity, the proposed method adopts a block-by-block approach and provides reliable direction of edge. Simulation results show that it provides a better performance than other pixel-by-pixel ELA-based methods.

This paper presents a new fast motion estimation method where search ranges are determined by the probabilities of motion vector differences (MVDs), which is an adaptive/dynamic search range (ASR) method. The MVDs' distribution is investigated and its parameter is estimated by the maximum likelihood estimator. With the estimated distribution, we show that the search ranges can be efficiently restricted by a prefixed probability for MVDs. Experimental results showed that the performance of the proposed method is very similar to that of the full search algorithm in PSNR but it enables significant reduction in the computational complexity. In addition, they revealed that the proposed method determine the search ranges much more efficiently than the conventional ASR methods.

과속차량 단속카메라에 촬영된 차량 전면 영상은 차량번호를 인식하여 과속차량에 과금하는 용도로 사용되나 범죄 용의자 차량을 추적하기 위한 용도로도 사용되어진다. 본 연구에서는 국소특징점의 정합을 이용하여 차량 모델을 찾는 방법을 넘어서 실시간으로 차량 모델을 찾기 위한 알고리즘을 제안한다. 입력된 영상에 대하여 차량의 모델을 특징지을 수 있는 헤드라이트를 포함한 차량의 그릴 영역을 관심영역으로 제한하고 관심영역에서 추출된 특징점들을 모델 특징벡터 데이터베이스의 자료와 비교하는 방법 을 사용하였다. 입력 영상의 크기 변화와 조명 변화에 강인한 SURF 국소특징점을 이용한 매칭 방법은 차량 모델을 찾는데 적합하나 선형적으로 탐색하는데 시간이 오래걸린다. 따라서 블러를 사용하여 차량 이미지에서 추출되는 특징점들의 수를 매칭이 가능한 수준으로 낮추는 방법으로 모델 자료로부터 탐색에 필요한 시간을 단축시켰다. 또한 모델 자료를 구조화하여 탐색시간을 줄이는 방법들을 비교하여 LSH 를 사용한 결과 차량 모델을 탐색하는데 필요한 시간이 단축됨을 보였다.

In this paper, we propose an efficient inter and intra prediction algorithms for fast encoding of H.264/AVC. First, inter prediction mode decision method decides early using temporal/spatial correlation information and pixel direction information. Second, intra prediction mode decision method selects block size judging smoothness degree with inner/outer pixel value variation and decides prediction mode using representative pixel and reference pixel. Lastly, adaptive motion search region restriction sets search region using mode information of neighboring block and predicted motion vector. The experimental results show that proposed method can achieve about 18~53% reduction compared with the existing JM 14.1 in the encoding time. In RD performance, the proposed method does not cause significant PSNR value losses while increasing bitrates slightly.

The conventional fractal decoding was required a vast amount computational complexity, since every range blocks was implemented to IFS(iterated function system). In order to improve this, it has been suggested that each range block was classified to iterated and non-iterated regions. Non-iterated regions is called data dependency region, and if data dependency region extended, IFS regions are contractive. In this paper, a searched region of the domain is limited to the range regions that is similar with the domain blocks, and the domain region is more overlapped. As a result, data dependency region has maximum region, that is IFS regions can be minimum region. The minimizing method of domain region is defined to minimum domain(MD) which is minimum IFS region. Using the minimizing method of domain region, there is not influence PSNR(peak signal-to-noise ratio). And it can be performed a fast decoding by reducing the computational complexity for IFS in fractal image decoding.

In this paper, we propose a fast fractal image coding algorithm to shorten long time to take on fractal image encoding. For its performance evaluation, the algorithm compares with other traditional fractal coding methods. In the traditional fractal image coding methods, an original image is contracted by a factor in order to make the corresponding image to be compared with. Then, the whole area of the contracted image is searched in order to find the fixed point of contractive transformation of the original image corresponding to the contracted image. It needs a lot of searching time on encoding. However, the proposed algorithm considerably reduces encoding time by using scaling method and limited search area method. On comparison of the proposed algorithm with Jacquin's method, the proposed algorithm is dozens of times as fast as that of Jacquin's method on encoding time with a little degradation of the decoded image quality and a little increase of the compression rate. Therefore, it is found that the proposed algorithm largely improves the performance in the aspect of encoding time when compared with other fractal image coding methods.

This Paper proposes a novel fractal image method for image communication to shorten time to take on fractal encoding by using limited search area method and scaling method First, the original image is contracted respectively by half and by quarter with the scaling method. And then, the corresponding domain block of the quarter-sized image which is most similar with one range block of the half-sized image is searched within the limited area in order to reduce the encoding time extremely As the result of the evaluation, the proposed algorithm provided much shorter encoding time and better compression ratio with a little degradation of the decoded image quality than Jacquin's method.
