Seg fog removal is an important issue concerned by both computer vision and image processing. Sea fog or haze removal is widely used in lots of fields, such as automatic control system, CCTV, and image recognition. Color image dehazing techniques have been extensively studied, and expecially the dark channel prior(DCP) technique has been widely used. This paper propose a fast and efficient image prior - dark channel prior to remove seg-fog from a single digital image based on the GPU. We implement the basic parallel program and then optimize it to obtain performance acceleration with more than 250 times. While paralleling and the optimizing the algorithm, we improve some parts of the original serial program or basic parallel program according to the characteristics of several steps. The proposed GPU programming algorithm and implementation results may be used with advantages as pre-processing in many systems, such as safe navigation for ship, topographical survey, intelligent vehicles, etc.

This paper presents a problem of existing encryption methods using pseudo-random numbers based on MLCA or complemented MLCA and proposes a method to resolve this problem. The existing encryption methods have a problem which the edge of original image appear on encrypted image because the image have color similarity of adjacent pixels. In this proposed method, we transform the value and spatial coordinates of all pixels by using pseudo-random numbers based on MLCA. This method can resolve the problem of existing methods and improve the level of encryption by encrypting pixel coordinates and pixel values of original image. The effectiveness of the proposed method is proved by conducting histogram and key space analysis.

In the present paper routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) in optical WDM networks is considered. Previous techniques based on the combination of integer linear programming and graph coloring are complex and require extensive use of heuristics. Such methods are mostly slow and sometimes impossible to get results due to infeasibility. An alternative approach applied to RWA employs on the greedy algorithm for obtaining the maximum edge disjoint paths. Even though this approach is fast, it produces a solution for any connection request, which is very far from the optimal utilization of wavelengths. We propose a novel algorithm, which is based on the maximum flow technique to obtain the maximum quantity of edge, disjoint paths. Here we compare the offered method with previous maximum edge disjoint paths algorithms ap plied to the RWA.

This study is interested in manufacturing the self-cleaning silicate concrete surface impregnant including tetra ethyl ortho silicate, lithium silicate for the repair of the exposed concrete surface and the color concrete requiring the advanced function in view of the concrete appearance. The concrete surface layer change and static contact angel was tested for the review of application. The result of this study shows that the effective silicate is tetra ethyl ortho silicate and lithium silicate. The adhesion in tension is satisfied with performance requirement of KS standard but the reinforcement of concrete substrate is slight. So, The self-cleaning silicate concrete impregnant of this study is more desirable for the improvement of durability rather than the reinforcement.

Emotion intelligence computing is able to processing of human emotion through it's studying and adaptation. Also, Be able more efficient to interaction of human and computer. As sight and hearing, music & image is constitute of short time and continue for long. Cause to success marketing, understand-translate of humanity emotion. In this paper, Be design of check system that matched music and image by user emotion keyword(irritability, gloom, calmness, joy). Suggested system is definition by 4 stage situations. Then, Using music & image and emotion ontology to retrieval normalized music & image. Also, A sampling of image peculiarity information and similarity measurement is able to get wanted result. At the same time, Matched on one space through pared correspondence analysis and factor analysis for classify image emotion recognition information. Experimentation findings, Suggest system was show 82.4% matching rate about 4 stage emotion condition.

In this paper, we proposed image processing technique for automatic real-time fire and smoke detection in tunnel environment. To avoid the large scale of damage of fire occurred in variety environments, it is purposeful to propose many studies to minimize and to discover the incident as fast as possible. But we need new specific algorithm because tunnel environment is quite different and it is difficult to apply previous fire detection algorithm to tunnel environment. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed specific algorithm which can be applied in tunnel environment. To minimize false detection in tunnel we used color and motion information. And it is possible to detect exact position in early stage with detection, test, verification procedures. In addition, by comparing properties of each algorithm throughout experiment, we have proved the validity and efficiency of proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we propose car license plate recognition using morphological information and an enhanced neural network. Morphological information on horizontal and vertical edges was used to extract the license plate from a car image. We used a contour tracking algorithm combined with the method of histogram and location information to extract individual characters in the extracted plate. The enhanced neural network is proposed for recognizing them, which has the method of combining the ART-1 and the supervised teaming method. The proposed method has applied to real world car images. The experimental results show that the proposed method has better the extraction rates than the methods with information of the thresholding, the RGB and the HSI, respectively. And the proposed neural network has better recognition performance than the conventional neural networks.

In this paper, we proposed a method to analyze kind of clouds using a fuzzy reasoning method. In the proposed method, we used the clues that G channel value is dominant from RGB color values in land areas and B channel value is dominant in the sea areas discovered by the analyses of both visible images and infrared images. By these information, R and B channel values are applied to land areas and R and G channel values are applied to the sea areas. Noise areas(areas except cloud areas) are removed from a visible image and an infrared image by a threshold value, and then land areas and the sea areas are discriminated from the noise removed image. Cloud areas are extracted from discriminated areas using R, G, B channel values and a fuzzy reasoning method, and finally kind of clouds is decided by combining same cloud areas included in both the visible image and the infrared image. In comparison with a conventional quantization method, we verified that the performance of cloud analysis by the proposed method is more efficient through experiments.

Node of USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network) environments uses radio based communication mechanism for a delivering message. Thus the multiple hop flooding is necessary for considering limited power and communicating unknown node long-range. However if there are many unknown nodes located in users' vision, the flooding of the radio base is insufficient alternative. Thus as a flash may be used to find a key in a darkness, a more direct and short range communication system is required. This study shall resolve such question through 2 different steps. First a Two kind of code method that convert Text message to color code shall be suggested. Second a hardware module, which may deliver various LED(light-emitting diode) color signal, shall be developed. The experiment may take place by fixing the entry angle of light and distance by setting a specific element as a standard mean.

In optical networks, traffic demands often demonstrate periodic nature for which time-overlapping property can be utilized in routing and wavelength assignment (RWA). A RWA problem for scheduled lightpath demands (SLDs) has been solved by combinatorial optimal solution (COS) and graph coloring, or heuristic sequential RWA (sRWA). Such methods are very complex and incurs large computational overhead. In this paper, we propose an efficient RWA algorithm to utilize the time disjoint property as well as space disjoint property through fast grouping of SLDs. The computer simulation shows that our proposed algorithm indeed achieves up to $54\%$ faster computation with similar number of wavelengths than the existing heuristic sRWA algorithm.
