Prediction is an important step in high-performance lossless data compression. In this paper, we propose a novel lossless image coding algorithm to increase prediction accuracy which can display low-resolution images quickly with a multi-resolution image technique. At each resolution, we use pixels of the previous resolution image to estimate current pixel values. For each pixel, we determine its estimated value by considering horizontal, vertical, diagonal edge information and average, weighted-average information obtained from its neighborhood pixels. In the experiment, we show that our method obtains better prediction than JPEG-LS or HINT.

고해상도 위성영상을 이용하여 수치지도를 제작함에 있어 가장 큰 문제점은 레스터 자료인 위성영상에서 경계검출을 통해 벡터자료의 형태로 제작하는 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 경계검출을 통하여 위성영상에서 지형의 경계를 검출해내고, 이를 스크린 디지 타이징 기법을 적용하여 벡터라이징 한 후 나타난 결과를 국토지리정보원의 수치지도와 비교하여 정확도를 비교ㆍ평가하였다. 대상 범위는 대전광역시 유성구 가정동 일부지역을 IKONOS로 촬영된 공간해상도 1m의 위성영상을 사용하였다. 위성영상의 전처리는 기하보정과 정사보정을 거친 후 영상강조를 하였고, 여러 가지의 필터링을 적용하여 경계검출을 수행하였다. 경계검출 방법 중에 하나인 Sobel 연산자를 적용한 후 축척 1:5,000 수치지도와의 중첩을 통하여 표준편차(Root Mean Square Error : RMSE)를 산출하여 비교ㆍ분석하였다. 그리고 스크린 디지타이징 기법을 적용하여 추출한 벡터자료를 건물, 도로 및 임야로 분류하여 수치지도와 중첩하여 정확도를 분석하였다. 그 결과 건물과 도로의 경우에는 공공측량 작업규정에서 정하고 있는 축척 1:5,000의 평면위치 허용오차 기준을 만족하고 있지만, 임야의 경우는 축척 1:10,000 이상의 허용오차기준에 만족되고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

There is growing interest in ultra-high-resolution content that gives a more realistic sense of presence than existing broadcast content. However, in order to provide ultra-high-resolution contents in existing broadcast services, there are limitations in view angle and resolution of the image acquisition device. In order to solve this problem, many researches on stitching, which is an image synthesis method using a plurality of input devices, have been conducted. In this paper, we propose method of dynamic object based video stitching using minimal error seam in order to overcome the temporal invariance degradation of moving objects in the stitching process of horizontally oriented videos.

The computational efficiency of flow simulations with Multi-resolution analysis (MRA) was enhanced via the boundary treatment of the computational domain. In MRA, an adaptive dataset to a solution is constructed through data decomposition with interpolating polynomial and thresholding. During the decomposition process, the basis points of interpolation should exceed the boundary of the computational domain. In order to resolve this problem, the weight coefficients of interpolating polynomial were adjusted near the boundaries. By this boundary treatment, the computational efficiency of MRA was enhanced while the numerical accuracy of a solution was unchanged. This modified MRA was applied to two-dimensional steady Euler equations and the enhancement of computational efficiency and the maintenance of numerical accuracy were assessed.

3차원 영상 제작을 위해서는 장면의 색상 영상과 함께 깊이 정보가 필요하다. 일반적으로 깊이를 측정하는 TOF 카메라에 의해 획득된 깊이 영상은 컬러 영상에 비해 매우 작은 해상도의 영상을 갖게 되는 문제가 있다. 따라서 색상 영상과 함께 3차원 영상 제작에 깊이 영상을 사용하기 위해서는 저해상도 깊이 영상의 업샘플링 방법이 필요하다. 특히 컬러 영상에서 사물 간의 경계에 해당하는 부분에서 색상 차이를 인지하지 못하여 깊이 맵을 부적절하게 처리하게 되는 경우가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 색상 영상에서 경계부분에 해당하는 영역을 이용하여 저해상도 깊이 영상을 업샘플링 하는 방법을 제안한다. 깊이 영상을 업샘플링 할 때 중요하게 다루어야 할 경계 부분을, 고해상도 색상 영상과 저해상도 깊이 영상을 이용하여 찾아낸다. 색상 경계 부분을 고려하여 깊이 영상 업샘플링을 위한 에너지 함수를 MRF를 이용하여 모델링하고, 신뢰 확산(belief propagation)방법을 이용하여 에너지 함수 최적화를 수행한다. 제안한 방법은 기존의 다른 에너지 함수나 필터 기반 업샘플링 방법보다 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.

Depth maps have distance information of objects. They play an important role in organizing 3D information. Color and depth images are often simultaneously obtained. However, depth images have lower resolution than color images due to limitation in hardware technology. Therefore, it is useful to upsample depth maps to have the same resolution as color images. In this paper, we propose a novel method to upsample depth map by shifting the pixel position instead of compensating pixel value. This approach moves the position of the pixel around the edge to the center of the edge, and this process is carried out in several steps to restore blurred depth map. The experimental results show that the proposed method improves both quantitative and visual quality compared to the existing methods.

The opening status of Saemangeum sluice gate is an important factor to the coastal water qualities near Saemangeum dikes. The sluice gate opening information is important in analysing current velocity and water quality data measured at the Saemanguem observation tower as well as in determining boundary conditions of numerical simulation for coastal environment outside Saemangeum dikes. This study establishes unmanned camera monitoring system on Saemangeum observation tower using mini notebook and digital camera, and extracts information on the opening status from images automatically. Images are analysed using variance difference of images together with edge detection techniques in order to get correct information.

This paper presents an efficient method for automatically detecting objects in a given image. The GHT is a robust template matching algorithm for automatic object detection in order to find objects of various shapes. Many different templates are applied by the GHT in order to find objects of various shapes and size. Every boundary detected by the GHT scan be used as an initial outline for more precise contour-finding techniques. The main weakness of the GHT is the excessive time and memory requirements. In order to overcome this drawback, the proposed algorithm uses a multiresolution search by scaling down the original image to half-sized and quarter-sized images. Using the information from the first iterative GHT on a quarter-sized image, the range of nuclear sizes is determined to limit the parameter space of the half-sized image. After the second iterative GHT on the half-sized image, nuclei are detected by the fine search and segmented with edge information which helps determine the exact boundary. The experimental results show that this method gives reduction in computation time and memory usage without loss of accuracy.

This study evaluates the wind speed forecast near the surface layer using the Weather Research Forecasting with Large Eddy Simulation (WRF-LES) model in order to compare the planetary boundary layer (PBL) parameterization with the LES model in terms of different spatial resolution. A numerical simulation is conducted with 1-km and 333-m horizontal resolution over the Gangwon Province including complex mountains and coastal region. The numerical experiments with 1-km and 333-m horizontal resolution employ PBL parameterization and LES, respectively. The wind speed forecast in mountainous region shows a better forecast performance in 333-m experiment than in 1-km, while wind speed in coastal region is similar to the observation in 1-km spatial resolution experiment. Therefore, LES experiment, which directly simulates the turbulence process near the surface layer, contributes to more accurate forecast of surface wind speed in mountainous regions.
