Visual tracking of selected target objects is fundamental challenging problems in computer vision. Object tracking localize the region of target object with bounding box in the video. We propose a Siam-FPN based custom fully CNN to solve visual tracking problems by regressing the target area in an end-to-end manner. A method of preserving the feature information flow using a feature map connection structure was applied. In this way, information is preserved and emphasized across the network. To regress object region and to classify object, the region proposal network was connected with the Siamese network. The performance of the tracking algorithm was evaluated using the OTB-100 dataset. Success Plot and Precision Plot were used as evaluation matrix. As a result of the experiment, 0.621 in Success Plot and 0.838 in Precision Plot were achieved.

In this paper suggest for methods disease region feature extraction of medical image using wavelet. In the preprocessing, the shape informations of medical image are selected by performing the discrete wavelet transform(DWT) with four level coefficient matrix. In this approach, based on the characteristics of the coefficient matrix, 96 feature parameters are calculated as follows: Firstly. obtaining 32 feature parameters which have the characteristics of low frequency from the parameters according to the horizontal high frequency are calculated from the coefficient matrix of horizontal high frequency. In the third place, 16 vertical feature parameters are also calculated using the same kind of procedure with respect to the vertical high frequency. Finally, 32 feature parameters of diagonal high frequency are obtained from the coefficient matrix of diagonal high frequency. Consequently, 96 feature aprameters extracted. Using suggest algorithm in this paper will, implamentation can automatic recognition system, increasing efficiency of picture achieve communication system.

Korea has developed coastal farming industry due to the environmental characteristics that its three sides are surrounded by sea. The damage of coastal farming industry caused by Asterias Amurensis with very strong reproductive rate and predaciousness has increased sharply every year. Moreover, Asterias Amurensis preys on living fish and shellfish and so the damage of fishermen is vern greater. In this paper, a method is proposed to extract effectively the features from the image of Asterias Amurensis acquired in the water. Because the proposed method extracts convex features using 6-directional scanning, it selects a fewer number of feature candidates than the conventional one. In addition, after selecting candidate concave points using the extracted convex features and centers of region, the final concave features are extracted. Due to the features of the starfish which lives in groups, individuals of the starfish in the input image are concentrated. Thus, it is significant to minimize the number of feature candidates extracted from the input image. The experimental results indicate an improvement of the proposed feature extraction method over the conventional one as evidenced by the fact that the feature extract was 88 % of the feature candidates.

This paper presents an automatic approach to detect face and facial feature from face images based on the color information and deformable model. Skin color information has been widely used for face and facial feature diction since it is effective for object recognition and has less computational burden, In this paper, we propose how to compensates varying light condition and utilize the transformed YCbCr color model to detect candidates region of face and facial feature from color images, Moreover, the detected face facial feature areas are subsequently assigned to a initial condition of active contour model to extract optimal boundaries of face and facial feature by resolving initial boundary problem when the active contour is used, The experimental results show the efficiency of the proposed method, The face and facial feature information will be used for face recognition and facial feature descriptor.

In this paper, we proposed a method of content-based image retrieval using variable region. Content-based image retrieval uses color histogram for the most part. But the existing color histogram methods have a disadvantage that it reduces accuracy because of quantization error and absence of spatial information. In order to overcome this, we convert color information to HSV space, quantize hue factor being pure color information, and calculate histogram of the factor. On the other hand, to solve the problem of the absence of spatial information, we select object region in consideration of color feature and region correlation. It maintains the size of region in the selected object region. But non-object region is integrated in one region. After of selection variable region, we retrieve using color feature. As the result of experimentation, the proposed method improves 10$\%$ in average of precision.

In this paper, we present a content-based image retrieval method which is based on the feature extraction in the wavelet transform domain. In order to overcome the drawbacks of the feature vector making up methods which use the global wavelet coefficients in subbands, we utilize the energy value of wavelet coefficients, and the shape-based retrieval of objects is processed by moment which is invariant in translation, scaling, rotation of the objects The proposed methods reduce feature vector size, and make progress performance of classification retrieval which provides fast retrievals times. To offer the abilities of region-based image retrieval, we discussed the image segmentation method which can reduce the effect of an irregular light sources. The image segmentation method uses a region-merging, and candidate regions which are merged were selected by the energy values of high frequency bands in discrete wavelet transform. The region-based image retrieval is executed by using the segmented region information, and the images are retrieved by a color, texture, shape feature vector.

In this paper, we will present a container auto-landing system, the system use the stereo camera to measure the container depth information. And the container region can be detected by using its hough line feature. In the line feature detection algorithm, we will detect the parallel lines and perpendicular lines which compose the rectangle region. Among all the candidate regions, we can select the region with the same aspect-ratio to the container. The region will be the detected container region. After having the object on both left and right images, we can estimate the distance from camera to object and container dimension. Then all the detect dimension information and depth inform will be applied to reconstruct the virtual environment of crane which will be introduce in this paper. Through the simulation result, we can know that, the container detection rate achieve to 97% with simple background. And the estimation algorithm can get a more accuracy result with a far distance than the near distance.

Topographical images, in case of aerial or satellite images, are usually similar in colors and textures, and complex in shapes. Thus we have to use shape features of images for efficiently retrieving a query image from topographical image databases. In this paper, we propose a shape feature extraction method which is suitable for topographical images. This method, which improves the existing projection in the Cartesian coordinates, performs the projection operation in the polar coordinates. This method extracts three attributes, namely the number of region pixels, the boundary pixel length of the region from the centroid, the number of alternations between region and background, along each angular direction of the polar coordinates. It extracts the features of complex shape objects which may have holes and disconnected regions. An advantage of our method is that it is invariant to rotation/scale/translation of images. Finally we show the advantages of our method through experiments by comparing it with CSS which is one of the most successful methods in the area of shape feature extraction

In this paper, we propose a real-time face detection and recognition system by using skin color informations, geometrical feature vectors of face, and facial angle informations from color face image. The proposed algorithm improved face region extraction efficiency by using skin color informations on the HSI color coordinate and face edge information. And also, it improved face recognition efficiency by using geometrical feature vectors of face and facial angles from the extracted face region image. In the experiment, the proposed algorithm shows more improved recognition efficiency as well as face region extraction efficiency than conventional methods.
