Predictive watershed transform is a popular object segmentation algorithm which achieves a speed-up by identifying image regions that are different from the previous frame and performing object segmentation only for those regions. However, incorrect segmentation is often generated by the predictive watershed transform which uses only local information in merge-split decision on boundary regions. This paper improves the predictive watershed transform to increase the accuracy of segmentation results by using the additional information about the root of boundary regions. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is processed in a block-based manner such that an image frame is decomposed into blocks and each block is processed independently of the other blocks. The block-based approach makes it easy to implement the algorithm in hardware and also permits an extension for parallel execution. Experimental results show that the proposed watershed transform produces more accurate segmentation results than the predictive watershed transform.

This paper proposes a security platform, called SCAP(Security platform for CORBA based APplication), to cope with potential threats in a distributed object system. SCAP supports CORBA security specification announced by OMG. SCAP is comprised of four functional blocks, which co-work with ORB to provide security services: Authentication Block, Association Block, Access Control Block, and Security Information Management Block. It is designed to support Common Secure Interoperability Functionality Level 2, which is useful for large-scale intra-, or inter-network based applications. Actual security services, which are dependent on supporting security technology, will be provided as external security service for replace ability. Implementation issues such as how to simulate an interceptor mechanism using a commercial ORB product without source code, and how to extend Current object required for security services are also described. At the end of the paper, the SCAP applied to the web environment is described to show its practical utilization.

휴대용 무선 단말기에서 사용할 수 있으며, 기존 워터마크 방법이 가지고 있는 화질 저하의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 왜곡이 없는 이미지 인증을 위한 블록 기반 정보 은닉 기법을 제안하였다. 콘텐츠에 관련된 디지털 서명을 기존 영상의 하단에 동일한 화소 값을 가지는 $8{\times}8$ 블록단위의 영상으로 변환하여 추가하고 압축한 다음, 저장할 때 JPEG 파일 스트림의 영상 사이즈 부분을 카메라에 설정된 화소수로 바꿔줌으로써 삽입된 영상서명을 은닉한다. 실험결과, 제안한 방법은 영상서명 은닉을 위해 추가되는 비트가 0.1% 이하로 미세함을 검증하였으며, 화질저하 없이 영상인증이 가능한 방법임을 확인할 수 있었다. 나아가 제안방식은 의료영상, 스마트폰 및 DSLR 등 카메라를 사용하는 다양한 임베디드 시스템에 활용할 수 있다.

IAs smart device penetration rate is more than 90%, mobile transaction ratio using smart device is increasing. Smart contracts are used in various areas of real life including smart trading. By applying smart contracts to the platform for smart transactions through block-chain technology, the threat of hacking or forgery can be reduced. However, various threats to devices in smart transactions can pose a threat to the use of block chain Etherium, an important element in privilege and personal information management. Smart contract used in block chain Ethereum includes important information or transaction details of users. Therefore, in case of an attack of privilege elevation, it is very likely to exploit transaction details or forge or tamper with personal information inquiry. In this paper, we propose a detection and countermeasure method for privilege escalation attack, which is especially important for block chain for secure smart transaction using block chain Ethereum. When comparing the results of this study with the results of similar applications and researches, we showed about 12~13% improvement in performance and suggested the future countermeasures through packet analysis.

Data hiding technology hides secret information into the carrier, so that when the carrier is transmitted over network, it will not attract any malicious attention. Using data compression, it is possible to reduce the data size into a small compressed code, which can effectively reduce the time when transmitting compressed code on the network. In this paper, the main objective is to effectively combine these two technologies. We designed a data hiding scheme based on two techniques which are turtle-shell information hiding scheme and absolute moment block truncation coding. The experimental results showed that the proposed scheme provided higher embedding capacity and better image quality than other hiding schemes which were based on absolute moment block truncation coding.

본고에서는 움직임 추정 성능을 개선하고 과도한 연산량과 전송 부담을 경감시키기 위해 HBMA에 기반한 가변 움직임 추정 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 크게 다음과 같이 네 단계로 구성된다. 우선, 연속된 두 프레임 간의 차영상 윤곡 정보에서 정의한 블록 활동도를 평균하여 현재 영상의 평균 블록 활동도를 산출한다. 두 번째로, 이렇게 산출한 평균 블록 활동도를 통해 카메라 패닝의 유무를 검출한 후, 웨이블렛 변환에 의해 구성한 피라미드 계층 구조상에서 카메라 패닝 벡터를 추정하여 보상한다. 다음으로, 카메라 패닝 보상 후에 정의한 블록 활동도를 토대로 각 블록을 움직임 블록, 준 움직임 블록, 비 움직임 블록 중 어느 하나로 분류한 검색 테이블을 작성한다. 마지막으로, 제안된 가변 HBMA는 검색 테이블을 참조하여 블록 크기를 가변시키고 초기 탐색 계층 및 탐색 영역을 적응적으로 선정함으로써 피라미드 계층 구조상에서 효율적인 고속 움직임 추정을 수행할 수 있다. 이상에서 설명한 각 단계에서 요구되는 비용함수는 차영상 윤곽정보를 통해 획득한 블록 활동도를 공통적으로 이용한다.

In this paper, we propose an error concealment technique using directional interpolation in block-based image compression. In the proposed method the edge direction is determined by finding the maximum correlation coefficients of boundary pixels of blocks neighboring the errored block in spatial domain. Then the errored block is interpolated linearly or bilinearly along the determined edge direction. The proposed method can conceal the block error, the macro block error, and the slice error adaptively. Also, the parameters for the directional interpolation are represented by closed forms. When applied to compressed images, the proposed method shows superior subjective and objective quality to conventional error concealment methods.

Subband/DCT coding has been introduced in order to transmit images of various resultions using one given image-codec, for nowadays there are various grades of quality in visual communication services. However, subband/DCT results in the increawse of multiplication number and memory size. In order to resolve this problem, we propose block-based subband/DCT coding in this paper. In block-based subband/DCT, the number of multiplications is not only reduced because we combine subband decomposistion with DCT, but the size of memory is also reduced because images can be parallel-processed block by block. We show that the number of multiplications is reduced, by analyzing the property ofblock-based subband/DCT matrix mathematically, and examine the performance of proposed coder, which adopts JPEG as backhand-coder after block-based subband/DCT.
