A custom micro-PIV optics assembly has been used to measure the flow fold inside a T-junction of a microchannel. The micro-PIV system consists of microscope objectives of various magnifications, a dichroic cube, and an 8-bit CCD camera. Fluorescent particles of diameters 620 nm have been used with a Nd:YAG laser and color filters. A programmable syringe pump with Teflon tubings were used to inject particle-seeded distilled water into the channel at flow rates of 2.0, 4.0, 6.0 mL/hr. The micro-channels are fabricated with PDMS with a silicon mold, then O$_{2}$ -ion bonded onto a slide glass. Results show differences in flow characteristics and resolution according to fluid injection rates, and magnifications, respectively. The results include PIV data with vector-to-vector distances of 2 $\mu$m with 32 pixel-square interrogation windows at 50$\%$ overlap.

본 논문에서는 내용 기반의 화상 검색 시스템을 위한 화상 특징 추출을 고속으로 수행하기 위하여 TCP/IP 프로토콜을 사용하는 LAN 환경에서 유휴(Idle) PC들을 사용한 PC 클러스터에 관해 연구하였다. 실험에 사용한 화상 특징(Image feature)으로서는 칼라의 응집도를 사용하는 CCV(Color Coherence Vector), 화상의 엔트로피를 정량화한 PIM(Picture Information Measure), Gaussian-Laplacian 에지 검출 연산을 사용한 SEV(Spatial Edge Histogram Vector)로서 이들을 추출하기 위한 Task를 Master rude에서 Slave rude들로 전송하고, 연산에 사용 될 화상 데이터를 전송한 후 연산을 수행하고 결과를 다시 Master node로 전송하는 전통적인 Task-Farming형태의 PC Cluster를 구성하였다. 연산에 참여하는 클러스터 노드의 개수를 증가시키며 Task와 화상데이터를 전송하여 이에 따른 연산시간을 측정하고 비교하였다. 실험 결과는 유휴 PC들로 구성된 PC클러스터를 이용한 효율적인 내용기반의 화상 검색 시스템을 구성하기 위해 활용이 가능하다.

Feature-based similarity retrieval become an important research issue in image database systems. The features of image data are useful to discrimination of images. In this paper, we propose the highspeed k-Nearest Neighbor search algorithm based on Self-Organizing Maps. Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) provides a mapping from high dimensional feature vectors onto a two-dimensional space. The mapping preserves the topology of the feature vectors. The map is called topological feature map. A topological feature map preserves the mutual relations (similarity) in feature spaces of input data. and clusters mutually similar feature vectors in a neighboring nodes. Each node of the topological feature map holds a node vector and similar images that is closest to each node vector. In topological feature map, there are empty nodes in which no image is classified. We experiment on the performance of our algorithm using color feature vectors extracted from images. Promising results have been obtained in experiments.

A custom micro-PIV optics assembly has been used to measure the flow field inside a T-shaped microchannel. The micro-PIV system consists of microscope objectives of various magnifications, a dichroic cube, and an 8-bit CCD camera. Fluorescent particles of diameters 620nm have been used with a Nd:YAG laser and color filters. A programmable syringe pump with Teflon tubings were used to inject particle-seeded distilled water into the channel at flow rates of $420,\;40,\;60{\mu}L/hr$. The microchannels are fabricated with PDMS with a silicon mold, then $O_2-ion$ bonded onto a slide glass. Results show differences in flow characteristics and resolution according to fluid injection rates, and magnifications, respectively. The results show PIV results with vector-to-vector distances of $2{\mu}m$ with 32 pixel-square interrogation windows at $50{\%}$ overlap.

본 논문에서는 컬러 NTGST (noise-tolerant generalized symmetry transform)를 기초로 하여 부분적인 조명 변화뿐 아니라 그림자 및 잡음이 있는 환경에서도 효과적으로 코너만을 검출할 수 있는 코너 검출자를 제안하였다. 제안한 코너 검출자는 잡음에 둔감한 NTGST를 기초로 하여 코너에 가까울수록, 두 직선 에지가 이루는 각이 작을수록 큰 값이 코너에 누적되도록 하여 코너의 정확한 위치를 검출할 수 있도록 하였다 특히 조명 변화에 둔감한 HSI 색 공간에서 색상 (hue) 성분을 강조하고 채도 (saturation) 및 휘도 (intensity) 성분을 보조적인 정보로 활용함으로써 부분적인 조명 및 그림자의 영향을 줄일 수 있도록 가중조합 벡터 미분 연산자 (weighted combination of vector gradient vector operator)를 제안 적용하여 그림자로 인한 거짓 경계선 및 거짓 코너를 제거할 수 있도록 하였다. 실험을 통하여 제안한 코너 검출 방법이 잡음 및 조명 변화에 둔감하게 효과적으로 코너를 검출함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose a method for correction of perspective distortion on a taken image. An image taken by a camera is caused perspective distortion depending on the direction of the camera when objects are projected onto the image. The proposed method in this paper is to obtain the normal vector of the plane through the depth information using a depth camera and calculate the direction of the camera based on this normal vector. Then the method corrects the perspective distortion to the view taken from the front side by performing a rotation transformation on the image according to the direction of the camera. Through the proposed method, it is possible to increase the processing speed than the conventional method such as correction of perspective distortion based on color information.

We propose 3D perspective display using elevation matrix data with 2D information overlay. This algorithm is based on ID scan-line method and we used color index of the newly developed raster map, VRRG(Vector Restored Raster Graphics). The proposed method allows the fast generation of perspective view of 3D data with 2D overlay and the fast selective display of the features of 2D overlay.

기존의 텍스트 추출을 위한 이진화 방법은 입력 이미지를 명도 이미지로 변환한 뒤 이진화 하는 방법을 사용하였다. 이러한 방법은 칼라 이미지에서는 극명히 구분되는 색이라 할지라도 명도 이미지로 변환하는 과정에서 같은 밝기를 같게 되는 경우(예를 들어, 배경은 붉은색, 텍스트는 초록색), 텍스트를 추출하는 데 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 입력 이미지를 R, G, B로 분리하고 각각을 이진화 하여 텍스트를 추출하고 다해상도 웨이블릿(Wavelet) 변환을 이용하여 텍스트의 획 특징을 추출하여 추출된 특징들을 SVM(Support Vector Machine) 분류기로 검증하여 최종 텍스트 영역을 확정한다. 제안한 방법을 적용함으로써 명도 정보만으로는 추출하기 어려웠던 텍스트 영역을 효과적으로 추출하고 텍스트와 구별하기 어려운 영역을 획수준으로 검증할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we propose a novel anchor shot detection system, named to MASD (Multi-phase Anchor Shot Detection), which is a core step of the preprocessing process for the news video analysis. The proposed system is composed of four modules and operates sequentially: 1) skin color detection module for reducing the candidate face regions; 2) face detection module for finding the key-frames with a facial data; 3) vector representation module for the key-frame images using a non-negative matrix factorization; 4) one class SVM module for determining the anchor shots using a support vector data description. Besides the qualitative analysis, our experiments validate that the proposed system shows not only the comparable accuracy to the recently developed methods, but also more faster detection rate than those of others.

As multimedia information increases sharply, In image retrieval field the method that can analyze image data quickly and exactly is required. In the case of image data, because each data includes a lot of informations, between accuracy and speed of retrieval become trade-off. To solve these problem, feature vector extracting process that use Genetic Algorithm for implementing prompt and correct image clustering system in case of retrieval of mass image data is proposed. After extracting color and texture features, the representative feature vector among these features is extracted by using Genetic Algorithm.
