The spectral color resolution of an image is very important in color image analysis. Two factors influencing the spectral color resolution of an image are illumination intensity and lens aperture for a selected vision system. An optimal combination of illumination intensity and lens aperture for color image analysis was determined in the study. The method was based on a model of dynamic range defined as the absolute difference between digital values of selected foreground and background color in the image. The role of illumination intensity in machine vision was also described and a computer program for simulating the optimal combination of two factors was implemented for verifying the related algorithm. It was possible to estimate the non-saturating range of the illumination intensity (input voltage in the study) and the lens aperture by using a model of dynamic range. The method provided an optimal combination of the illumination intensity and the lens aperture, maximizing the color resolution between colors of interest in color analysis, and the estimated color resolution at the combination for a given vision system configuration.

In this paper, we propose a background segmentation method in low resolution color image. A segmentation algorithm is based on color and edge information. In edge image, adaptive and local thresholds are applied to suppress paint boundaries. Through our experiments, the proposed algorithm efficiently segments background from objects.

In this paper, we present a new texture image retrieval method which combines color and texture features extracted from images by a set of multi-resolution multi-direction (MRMD) filters. The MRMD filter set chosen is simple and can be separable to low and high frequency information, and provides efficient multi-resolution and multi-direction analysis. The color space used is HSV color space separable to hue, saturation, and value components, which are easily analyzed as showing characteristics similar to the human visual system. This experiment is conducted by comparing precision vs. recall of retrieval and feature vector dimensions. Images for experiments include Corel DB and VisTex DB; Corel_MR DB and VisTex_MR DB, which are transformed from the aforementioned two DBs to have multi-resolution images; and Corel_MD DB and VisTex_MD DB, transformed from the two DBs to have multi-direction images. According to the experimental results, the proposed method improves upon the existing methods in aspects of precision and recall of retrieval, and also reduces feature vector dimensions.

In this paper, we propose a post-processing technique developed for the subjective improvement of color resolution in DCT-coded color images. The high frequency components caused by complex object parts are compressed and impaired through DCT-based image processing, so color distortions such as blurs in high saturated regions are observed. It's mainly due to the severe loss of color data as Cb and Cr. Generally, the activities of chroma elements in DCT domain correlate strongly with that of luminance as spatial frequency gets higher, and based on the relations between chroma and luma AC activities, we compensate destructed Cb, Cr coefficients using modifications from Y coefficients. Simulation results show that the proposed method enhances color resolution in high saturated region, and improves the visual quality.

This paper presents a new image cache algorithm for real-time implementation of high-resolution color image warping. The cache memory is divided into four cache memory modules for simultaneous readout of four input image pixels in consideration of the color filter array (CFA) pattern of an image sensor and CFA image warping. In addition, a pipeline structure from the cache memory to an interpolator is shown to guarantee the generation of an output image pixel at each system clock cycle. The proposed image cache algorithm is applied to an FPGA-based real-time color image warping, and experimental results are presented to show the validity of the proposed method.

본 논문에서는 기존에 PC 모니터와 프린터 사이의 색 재현성 향상을 위해서 사용되던 색역폭 매핑 방법을 디스플레이 장치에 적용하기 위한 실시간 색역폭 매핑 방법을 제시하였다. 다양한 디스플레이 장치가 개발됨에 따라서 각 디스플레이 별로 색 재현성의 차이가 발생하고 있으며 기존의 색역폭 매핑 방법을 디지털 TV의 디스플레이 장치에 적용하기 위해서는 수 나노초 단위의 처리 속도가 필요하다. 이를 위하여 본 논문에서는 절감 3차원 룩업 테이블(three-dimensional reduced resolution look-up table)의 하드웨어 구조를 제안하고 이를 이용하여 색역폭 매핑을 실시간으로 수행하는 방법을 제공한다. 제안된 하드웨어 구조는 먼저 simulation을 통하여 타당성을 검증하였으며 이후 FPGA와 ASIC으로 구현되어 디지털 TV의 디스플레이 장치의 화질 개선에 성공적으로 적용되었다.

현재까지 단일 영상센서를 사용하는 디지털 이미징 장치들을 위해 다양한 보간 기법들이 제안되어 왔다. 그러나 기존 보간 기법들은 주기적 샘플링을 사용하는 영상센서의 출력 해상도 모드를 고려하지 않았다. 따라서 출력 영상에서 해상도 화질 열화 및 color artifacts(color moire, zipper)현상들이 문제점으로 나타난다. 본 논문은 영상센서의 출력 해상도 모드를 고려한 색상 보간 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 보간 알고리즘은 효과적으로 에지 예측을 보상하는 초기단계와 해상도 모드를 고려하여 최소한의 방향성을 이용한 화질 개선단계로 구성되었다. 기존 기법들과 제안하는 알고리즘 결과를 분석 하기위해 주관적 화질비교와 PSNR(Peak Signal to Noise Ratio)을 통한 객관적 화질평가를 비교하였다. 객관적인 수치와 시각적인 부분에서 기존 기법 대비 color artifacts를 효과적으로 개선하였다.

The key point of this design can offer good picture resolution and a high-speed color STN decode. We maximize a combination processing of the color signal. Therefore, there is a color implementation at the natural. The age of the multimedia comes, so the color is considered important and wide. To be necessary a color implementation have become the importance which picture resolution is clean and low price of the liquid display TFT occupied greater part of the liquid display. But TFT could not consist low price realization. This research is a color implementation of STN at low price, design good picture resolution decode for optimum an limit of upside with frequency range maximizing and can reply in the high-speed by multidivision method. As a result, we design optimum of the STN decode.
