In the field of content-based image retrieval, many numerical features have been proposed for representing visual image content such as color, torture, and shape. Because the features are assumed to be independent, each of them is extracted without ny consideration of the others. In this paper, we consider the relationship between color and texture and propose a new feature called CCE(channel color energy). Simulation results with natural images show that the proposed method outperforms the conventional regular weighted comparison method and SCFT(sequential chromatic Fourier transform)-based color torture method.

Iris recognition is a biometric technology which can identify a person using the iris pattern. Recently, using iris information is used in many fields such as access control and information security. But Perform complex operations to extract features of the iris. because High-end hardware for real-time iris recognition is required. This paper is appropriate for the embedded environment using local gradient histogram embedded system using iris feature extraction methods have implement. Experimental results show that the performance of proposed method is comparable to existing methods using Gabor transform noticeably improves recognition performance and it is noted that the processing time of the local gradient histogram transform is much faster than that of the existing method and rotation was also a strong attribute.

본 논문에서는 수정된 CNN(Convolutional Neural Network) 모델과 다중 필터가 상호 결합된 형태의 얼굴 패턴 검출 기법을 소개 한다. 이는 로봇 시각의 응용문제에서 실내영상의 실시간 인식문제를 대상으로 한다. 검출 과정의 효율성 향상을 위하여 도입된 다중 필터는 후보 영역의 개수와 범위를 줄일 수 있게 한다. 제안된 모델에서 CNN 신경망은 가보변환(Gabor Transform)계층을 두어 검출 과정의 첫 단계에서 영상 내의 기본 특징 지도를 생성 하도록 하였다. 보다 강인한 검출기능을 위하여 조명보정 기법이 시스템의 전처리 단계로 구현 된다. 실제 영상을 통한 실험 결과로부터 제안된 이론의 타당성을 고찰 한다.

생체 인식에 있어서 가장 높은 성능을 가진 것으로 알려진 홍채인식 시스템은 고도의 보안성을 요구하는 시스템에 적합하지만 높은 하드웨어 비용 때문에 널리 보급되고 있지는 못하고 있는 실정이다. 한편, 단초점 CMOS센서는 높은 하드웨어 비용을 보완할 수 있고 개인을 식별하기에 충분한 해상도를 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 단초점 센서를 사용하여 하드웨어 비용을 줄이고 홍채패턴의 코드화는 상용화된 제품에 사용되어 이미 안정적이라 평가받은 John G. Daugman 의 Gabor Wavelet Transform 을 기반으로 하여 홍채인식 시스템을 구현하고 이를 실생활에 적용할 수 있는 근태관리 시스템을 개발하였다.

본 논문에서는 지문과 얼굴정보를 이용한 다중 바이오인식 기술(Multi-modal Biometric Technology)을 이용한 운전면허학원 근태관리 시스템 구현에 대해 논한다. 지문인식은 Neurotechnology사의 Free Fingerprint Verification SDK를 사용하였으며, 얼굴인식은 얼굴검출 단계에 Adaboost, 특징추출 단계에 Gabor Wavelet Transform을 이용하였다. 마지막 단계인 인식단계는 두 특징벡터 간의 유클리디언 거리를 이용한다. 두 바이오정보를 통한 인증(Verification)의 결정여부는 AND규칙을 이용하여 두 가지의 바이오정보 인증과정을 모두 통과하여야만 최종 인증확인이 되도록 구현하였다. 성능테스트는 10명의 적은 테스트 집합을 이용하였으며 지문과 얼굴정보를 각각 이용하였을 때보다 두 정보를 결합하였을 때 더 나은 인식률을 보였다.

In this parer, face recognition method which can be applied to ITCS (interactive TV control system) is proposed. We extracted ULBP(uniform local binary pattern) histogram feature from infra-red images, and we detected left-right eyes and face region by using SVM classifier. Then, We implemented face recognition system which is using Gabor transform and ULBP histogram feature and applied to personal verification for ITCS.

As multimedia information is spread over cyber networks, problems such as protection of legal rights and original proof of an information owner raise recently. Various image transformations of DCT, DFT and DWT have been used to embed a watermark as a token of ownership. Recently, SVD being used in the field of numerical analysis is additionally applied to the watermarking methods. A watermarking method is proposed in this paper using Gabor cosine and sine transform as well as SVD for embedding and extraction of watermarks for digital images. After delivering attacks such as noise addition, space transformation, filtering and compression on watermarked images, watermark extraction algorithm is performed using the proposed GCST-SVD method. Normalized correlation values are calculated to measure the similarity between embedded watermark and extracted one as the index of watermark performance. Also visual inspection for the extracted watermark images has been done. Watermark images are inserted into the lowest vertical ac frequency band. From the experimental results, the proposed watermarking method using the singular vectors of SVD shows large correlation values of 0.9 or more and visual features of an embedded watermark for various attacks.

As rock bolts become one of the main support systems in tunnels and underground structures, the integrity of the rock bolts affects the safety of these types of structures. The purpose of this study is the evaluation of rock bolt integrity using Fourier and wavelet transforms of the guided ultrasonic waves. After five rock bolt specimens with various defect ratios are embedded into a large scale concrete block, guided waves are generated by a PZT (lead zirconate titanate) element and measured by an acoustic emission (AE) sensor. The captured signals are analyzed in the frequency domain using the Fourier transform, and in the time-frequency domain using the wavelet transform based on a Gabor wavelet. The spectrum obtained from the Fourier transform shows that a portion of high frequency contents increases with increase in the defect ratio. Peak values in the time-frequency domain represent the interval of travel time of each echo. The energy velocities of the guided waves increase with the defect ratio. This study shows that the spectrum ratio and the energy velocity may be indicators fur the evaluation of rock bolt integrity.

A time-frequency analysis method was developed to analyze the dispersive waves caused by impact loads in structural members such as beams and plates. Stress waves generated by ball drop and pencil lead break were recorded by ultrasonic transducers and acoustic emission (AE) sensors. Wavelet transform (WT) using Gabor function was employed to analyze the dispersive waves in the time-frequency domain, and then to find the arrival time of the waves as a function of frequency. The measured group velocities in the beam and the plate were compared with the predictions based on the Timoshenko beam theory and Rayleigh-Lamb frequency equations, respectively. The agreements were found to be very good.

Frequency spectrum using the conventional Fourier analysis gives adequate information about the dynamic characteristics of the slider air bearing for the linear and stationary cases. The intermittent contacts for the extremely low flying height, however, generate nonlinear and nonstationary vibration at the instant of contact. Nonlinear dynamic model should be developed to simulate the impulse response of the air bearing during slider-disk contact. Time-frequency analysis is widely used to investigate the nonstationary signal. Several time-frequency analysis methods are employed and compared for the slider vibration signal caused by the impact against an artificially induced scratch on the disk. The representative Wigner-Ville distribution leads to the severe interference problem by cross terms even though it gives good resolution both in time and frequency. The smoothing process improves the interference problem at the expense of resolution. In order to get the results with good resolution and little interference, the reassignment method is proposed. Among others the reassigned Gabor spectrogram shows the best resolution and readability with negligible interference.
