본 논문에서는 중복되지 않는 서로 다른 카메라의 영상을 활용한 동일 객체 판단 및 추적 기술에 대하여 소개한다. 영상분석에서 색상 정보는 가장 기본이 되는 중요한 정보라 할 수 있다. 특히 색상 정보를 이용하는 히스토그램은 일반적으로 추적, 인식 등에 많이 사용되고 있으나 이동 객체나 조도 변화 등에 따라 성능에 차이를 보인다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 본 연구에서는 동일 객체 판단을 위해 대표적으로 사용되는 히스토그램 정합의 두 알고리즘(HSV 공간에서의 Histogram matching 방법과 RGB 공간에서의MCSHR 알고리즘) 결합을 통해 분할 히스토그램은 객체를 3조각으로 나누어 전체와 각각의 히스토그램을 구하며 MCSHR을 RGB공간이 아니 Hue 공간 히스토그램으로 변경하여 유사도를 도출 하였으며 조도 변화에 강인한 모델을 만들기 위해 Controlled equalization기법을 사용하여 원 영상의 히스토그램의 확률과 평활화한 히스토그램의 확률 융합을 시도 하였다. 해당 실험의 비교 결과 기존 HSV공간에서 Histogram matching을 통한 유사도 비교보다 12.9% 향상된 정합율의 결과를 보였다. 또한 영상 정보와 스마트 기기를 통한 인식 방법의 융합을 통해 영상 내에서 동일 객체 판단에 대한 추가 정보 제공에 대해 방법론 적인 부분을 제안 하였다.

This paper proposes the shifted histogram method (SHM), for histogram-based image retrieval based on the dominant colors in images. The histogram-based method is very suitable for color image retrieval because retrievals are unaffected by geometrical changes in images, such as translation and rotation. Images with the same visual information, but with shifted color intensity, may significantly degrade if the conventional histogram intersection method (HIM) is used. To solve this problem, we use the shifted histogram method (SHM). Our experimental results show that the shifted histogram method has significant higher retrieval performance than the standard histogram method.

The color measuring/matching expert system is implemented with a new color measuring method that combines intelligent algorithms with image processing techniques. Color measuring part of the proposed system preprocesses the scanned original color input images to eliminate their distorted components by means of the image histogram technique of image pixels, and then extracts RGB(Red, Green, Blue)data among color information from preprocessed color input images. If the extracted RGB color data does not exist on the matching recipe databases, we can measure the colors for the user who want to implement the model that can search the rules for the color mixing information, using the intelligent modeling techniques such as fuzzy inference system and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system. Color matching part can easily choose images close to the original color for the user by comparing information of preprocessed color real input images with data-based measuring recipe information of the expert, from the viewpoint of the delta Eformula used in practical process.

Content-based video copy detection is a complementary approach to watermarking. As opposed to watermarking, which relies on inserting a distinct pattern into the video stream, video copy detection techniques match content-based signatures to detect copies of video. Existing typical content-based copy detection schemes have relied on image matching which is based on key frame detection. This paper proposes a motion directional histogram, which is quantized and accumulated the direction of motion, for video copy detection. The video clip is represented by a motion directional histogram as a 1-dimensional graph. This method is suitable for real time indexing and counting the TV CF verification that is high motion video clips.

In this paper, we presents a signatures verification by using the nonlinear quantization histogram of polar coordinate based on multi-dimensional adjacent pixel intensity difference. The multi-dimensional adjacent pixel intensity difference is calculated from an intensity difference between a pair of pixels in a horizontal, vertical, diagonal, and opposite diagonal directions centering around the reference pixel. The polar coordinate is converted from the rectangular coordinate by making a pair of horizontal and vertical difference, and diagonal and opposite diagonal difference, respectively. The nonlinear quantization histogram is also calculated from nonuniformly quantizing the polar coordinate value by using the Lloyd algorithm, which is the recursive method. The polar coordinate histogram of 4-directional intensity difference is applied not only for more considering the corelation between pixels but also for reducing the calculation load by decreasing the number of histogram. The nonlinear quantization is also applied not only to still more reflect an attribute of intensity variations between pixels but also to obtain the low level histogram. The proposed method has been applied to verified 90(3 persons * 30 signatures/person) images of 256*256 pixels based on a matching measures of city-block, Euclidean, ordinal value, and normalized cross-correlation coefficient. The experimental results show that the proposed method has a superior to the linear quantization histogram, and Euclidean distance is also the optimal matching measure.

A text-dependent speaker recognition system using a robust matching process is studied. The feature histogram of LPC cepstral coefficients for matching is used. The matching process uses mixture network with penalty scores. Using probability and shape comparison of two feature histograms, similarity values are obtained. The experiment results will be shown to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In abrupt fire disturbances, high quality images suitable for wildfire damage assessment can be difficult to acquire. Quantifying wildfire burn area and severity are essential measures for quick short-term disaster response and efficient long-term disaster restoration. Planetscope (PS) imagery offers 3 m spatial and daily temporal resolution, which can overcome the spatio-temporal resolution tradeoff of conventional satellites, albeit at the cost of spectral resolution. This study investigated the potential of augmenting PS imagery by integrating the spectral information from Sentinel-2 (S2) differenced Normalized Burn Ratio (dNBR) to PS differenced Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (dNDVI) using histogram matching,specifically for wildfire burn area and severity assessment of the Okgye wildfire which occurred on April 4th, 2019. Due to the difficulty in acquiring reference data, the results of the study were compared to the wildfire burn area reported by Ministry of the Interior and Safety. The burn area estimates from this study demonstrated that the histogram-matched (HM) PS dNDVI image produced more accurate burn area estimates and more descriptive burn severity intervals in contrast to conventional methods using S2. The HM PS dNDVI image returned an error of only 0.691% whereas the S2 dNDVI and dNBR images overestimated the wildfire burn area by 5.32% and 106%, respectively. These improvements using PS were largely due to the higher spatial resolution, allowing for the detection of sparsely distributed patches of land and narrow roads, which were indistinguishable using S2 dNBR. In addition, the integration of spectral information from S2 in the PS image resolved saturation effects in areas of low and high burn severity.

A method of restoring the occluded area was proposed by referring to images taken with the same types of sensors on high-resolution optical satellite images through deep learning. For the natural continuity of the simulated image with the occlusion region and the surrounding image while maintaining the pixel distribution of the original image as much as possible in the patch segmentation image, CycleGAN (Cycle Generative Adversarial Network) method with ConvNeXt block applied was used to analyze three experimental regions. In addition, We compared the experimental results of a training patch size of 512*512 pixels and a 1024*1024 pixel size that was doubled. As a result of experimenting with three regions with different characteristics,the ConvNeXt CycleGAN methodology showed an improved R² value compared to the existing CycleGAN-applied image and histogram matching image. For the experiment by patch size used for training, an R² value of about 0.98 was generated for a patch of 1024*1024 pixels. Furthermore, As a result of comparing the pixel distribution for each image band, the simulation result trained with a large patch size showed a more similar histogram distribution to the original image. Therefore, by using ConvNeXt CycleGAN, which is more advanced than the image applied with the existing CycleGAN method and the histogram-matching image, it is possible to derive simulation results similar to the original image and perform a successful simulation.

In this paper, we propose a system for multiple people tracking using fragment based histogram matching. Appearance model is based on IHLS color histogram which can be calculated efficiently using integral histogram representation. Since histograms will loss all spatial information, we define a fragment based region representation which retain spatial information, robust against occlusion and scale issue by using disparity information. Multiple people labeling is maintained by creating online appearance representation for each people detected in scene and calculating fragment vote map. Initialization is performed automatically from background segmentation step.

This paper presents a method for hand segmentation using depth information, and adaptive threshold by means of histogram analysis and color clustering in HSV color model. We consider hand area as a nearer object to the camera than background on depth information. And the threshold of hand color is adaptively determined by clustering using the matching of color values on the input image with one of the regions of hue histogram. Experimental results demonstrate 95% accuracy rate. Thus, we confirmed that the proposed method is effective for hand segmentation in variations of hand color, scale, rotation, pose, different lightning conditions and any colored background.
