주행 로봇 환경에서 비전 기반의 물체 인식은 물체의 주변 요소와 동적인 환경에 대한 다양한 영상처리 문제를 포함한다. SURF(Speeded Up Robust Features)는 영상의 크기와 회전변화에 강인하게 물체를 인식하는 알고리즘으로 많은 연구자에 의해 사용되고 있다. 하지만 SURF 기반의 영상처리 방법은 고차원의 벡터 성분을 사용하기 때문에 연산 과정에서 많은 시간을 소비하며, 그로 인해 실시간 시스템에서 수행의 어려움을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서, 연산량이 많은 SURF 처리 과정을 GPU(Graphics Processing Unit)에서 수행하도록 하여, 보다 빠른 영상 인식을 구현하고자 한다. NVIDIA의 CUDA 라이브러리를 이용하여 GPU 상의 수행 프로그램을 구현하고, 실험을 통해 이동 로봇의 속도와 영상의 크기변화에 따른 표식의 인식률 및 수행시간에 대해서 CPU와 성능을 비교한다.

Vision-based robot localization is challenging due to the vast amount of visual information available, requiring extensive storage and processing time. To deal with these challenges, we propose the use of features extracted from omni-directional panoramic images and present a method for localization of a mobile robot equipped with an omni-directional camera. The core of the proposed scheme may be summarized as follows : First, we utilize an omni-directional camera which can capture instantaneous $360^{\circ}$ panoramic images around a robot. Second, Nodes around the robot are extracted by the correlation coefficients of Circular Horizontal Line between the landmark and the current captured image. Third, the robot position is determined from the locations by the proposed correlation-based landmark image matching. To accelerate computations, we have assigned the node candidates using color information and the correlation values are calculated based on Fast Fourier Transforms. Experiments show that the proposed method is effective in global localization of mobile robots and robust to lighting variations.

Biophilic design gives human beings positive and valuable experiences in nature. The experience in nature in the architectural environment is mainly symbolic and metaphorical, and is based on visual sensations such as color, form, and image. Recently, modern people living in a modern and simple style indoor space have a desire to pursue visual stimuli for interest or pleasure. This desire can be satisfied through color, lighting, and finishing plan. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose a biophilic design color palette based on the empirical characteristics and properties of biophilic design. The methods used in this study are as follows. First, the biophilic design factors and natural landscape preference criteria are examined. Second, based on the review results, natural landscape images are selected and color information for each biophilic design element is extracted according to the vertical and horizontal directions. Third, color information is converted to NCS color code and palette range and hue range are derived through the analysis of ratio and average values. Finally, based on the analysis results, biophilic design color palette is proposed for each element. The results of this study might be useful as basic data in establishing biophilic design strategies and applying them to architecture and interior construction.

최근 들어 영상처리는 여러 분야에서 사용되어지고 있다. 영상처리에서 많이 연구되어지고 있는 기술은 실시간으로 객체를 추적하는 기술이다. 객체를 추적하는 방법은 보행자를 추적하는 HOG(Histogram of Oriented Gradients), 전경과 배경 분리 방법을 사용하는 Codebook 같은 방법 들이 많이 알려져 있다. 그러나 객체가 움직이거나 동적인 배경, 조명변화가 심할 경우 객체 추출이 어려워진다. 본 논문에서는 ROI(Region of Interest)기반 깊이영상과 컬러영상의 특징을 이용해 객체를 추출하는 방법을 제안한다. 첫 번째, 깊이 영상에서 배경분리를 통해 객체의 위치를 찾아 ROI로 설정해준다. 두 번째, 컬러영상을 이용하여 영상의 특징점을 찾는다. 세 번째, 특징점과 객체의 볼록헐(convex hull) 구성점들을 이용하여 새로운 윤곽을 만들어 더 정확한 객체를 추출하도록 한다. 마지막으로 본 논문에서 제안한 방법과 기존 방법과의 비교를 통해 제안한 방법의 결과가 좀 더 정확한 객체를 추출하고 있음을 검증하였다.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate two major feature extraction techniques based on generic modular face recognition system. Detailed algorithms are described for principal component analysis (PCA) and independent component analysis (ICA). PCA and ICA ate statistical techniques for feature extraction and their incorporation into a face recognition system requires numerous design decisions. We explicitly state the design decisions by introducing a modular-based face recognition system since some of these decision are not documented in the literature. We explored different implementations of each module, and evaluate the statistical feature extraction algorithms based on the FERET performance evaluation protocol (the de facto standard method for evaluating face recognition algorithms). In this paper, we perform two experiments. In the first experiment, we report performance results on the FERET database based on PCA. In the second experiment, we examine performance variations based on ICA feature extraction algorithm. The experimental results are reported using four different categories of image sets including front, lighting, and duplicate images.

This paper proposes the methodology in image processing algorithm that estimates the pose of the pipe crawling robot. The pipe crawling robots are usually equipped with a lighting device and a camera on its head for monitoring and inspection purpose. The proposed methodology is using these devices without introducing the extra sensors and is based on the fact that the position and the intensity of the reflected light varies with the robot posture. The algorithm is divided into two parts, estimating the translation and rotation angle of the camera, followed by the actual pose estimation of the robot. To investigate the performance of the algorithm, the algorithm is applied to a sewage maintenance robot.

The cross-section of the polyester filament yarn has been modified to have a variety of shape for aesthetic, added functions and sensitivities, and other purposes. Transparent polyester filament of trilobal cross-section has unique optical properties with high anisotropic reflectivity and transmissivity. The monofilament yarns may be utilized to impart to the fabrics lustrous appearance along with unique color change in case differently dyed yarns are woven together. The color changes of the fabric specimens according to the changes in observation and lighting conditions were analyzed using a CCD camera and an image analysis software. The changes of color/luster of the fabric specimens were measured and analyzed based on RGB, $L^*a^*b^*,\;L^*C^*h,$ and the color distribution within a three-dimensional color space.

A new digital image processing method for measuring of the flank wear of cutting tool is presented. The method is based on computer vision technology in which the tool is illuminated by two halogen lamps and the wear zone is visualized using a CCD camera. The image is converted into digital pixel and processed to detect the wearland width. As a conclusion, it has been proved that the average wearland area and mzximum peak values of the flank wear width can monitored effectively to a measuring resolution of 0.01mm.

First, the concept of character consistency is explained, including the consistency of appearance, actions, and lighting, and its importance in continuous creation and storytelling is analyzed. Next, the study examines current mainstream AI drawing tools such as MidJourney and Stable Diffusion-based WebUI and ComfyUI, evaluating their strengths and limitations in maintaining character consistency. Finally, methods to improve AI drawing technology were proposed to enhance character consistency, aiming to achieve a higher level of consistency in AI art creation.
