  • A theory of binary wavelets has been recently proposed by using two-band perfect reconstruction filter banks over binary field . Binary wavelet transform (BWT) of binary images can be used as an alternative to the real-valued wavelet transform of binary images in image processing applications such as compression, edge detection, and recognition. The BWT, however, requires large amount of computations since its operation is accomplished by matrix multiplication. In this paper, a fast BWT algorithm which utilizes filtering operation instead or matrix multiplication is presented . It is shown that the proposed algorithm can significantly reduce the computational complexity of the BWT. For the decomposition and reconstruction or an N ${\times}$ N image, the proposed algorithm requires only 2LN$^2$ multiplications and 2(L-1)N$^2$addtions when the filter length is L, while the BWT needs 2N$^3$multiplications and 2N(N-1)$^2$additions.

  • 이미지의 한가지 특징(feature)만을 고려한 내용 기반 이미지 검색(content-based image retrieval)은 두가지 이상의 특징 정보를 사용했을 경우와 비교하여 정확도(precision)가 떨어져 성능을 저하시킬 수 있다 따라서 대부분의 검색 시스템에서는 색상(color)이나 형태(shape), 질감(texture) 등과 같은 이미지의 다양한 특징들을 결합하여 검색에 이용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이미지의 색상 및 형태 정보를 이용하여 사용자의 질의와 유사한 이미지를 제공하고, 고 차원화된 이미지의 특징들을 클러스터링(clustering) 방법을 이용하여 빠르게 검색할 수 있도록 하였으며, 또한 검색시 그룹 경계 보정 방법을 이용하여 전체 검색을 하지 않고도 전체검색 결과와 동일한 결과를 얻을 수 있는 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 실험에 사용된 데이터는 2022개의 자연 영상이였으며, HSI 색상 정보와 이미지의 에지(edge) 정보를 특징 벡터로 삼았다. 실험 결과, 색상 정보 하나만을 사용한 경우보다 정확도와 재현율면에서 사용자가 원하는 이미지와 보다 유사한 결과를 검출할 수 있었을 뿐만 아니라 클러스터링을 사용함으로써 보다 빠르고, 전체검색 결과와 동일한 검색이 가능하다는 것을 입증하였다.

  • Automobile sunroof buffeting is the tonal noise of low frequency around 20Hz. It occurs due to the acoustic feedback process between the shear layer detached from the leading edge of sunroof opening and the Helmholtz resonator-like property of a car cabin. In this paper, PIV visualization technique is applied to the unsteady flow field around sunroof opening of an SUV in the full-scale automotive wind tunnel in order to find out buffeting mechanism. A phase-marking PIV measurement method, in which image and sound pressure are recorded simultaneously, and a phase-rearrangement post-processing program were developed for capturing noise-related velocity fields without expensive synchronization systems. Through this study, some characteristics of the real-car sunroof shear layers under various deflector conditions were identified and these results can provide insights into the noise reduction mechanism of the tube-type deflector.

  • In virtual reality, there are increasing qualitative development in service technologies for realtime interaction system development, 3- dimensional contents, 3D TV and augment reality services. These services experience difficulties to generate depth value that is essential to recover 3D space to form solidity on existing contents. Hence, research for the generation of effective depth-map using 2D is necessary. This thesis will describe a shortcoming of an existing depth-map generation for the recovery of 3D space using 2D image and will propose an enhanced depth-map generation algorithm that complements a shortcoming of existing algorithms and utilizes the definition of depth direction based on the vanishing point within image.

  • In this paper, we propose a new scheme of motion tracking based on fuzzy inference (Fl) and wavelet transform (WT) from image sequences. First, we present a WT to segment a feature extraction of dynamic image . The coefficient matrix for 2-level DWT tent to be clustered around the location of Important features in the images, such as edge discontinuities, peaks, and corners. But these features are time varying owing to the environment conditions. Second, to reduce the spatio-temperal error, We develop a fuzzy inference algorithm. Some experiments are performed 0 testify the validity and applicability of the proposed system As a result, proposed method is relatively simple compared with the traditional space domain method. It is also well suited for motion tracking under the conditions of variation of illumination.

  • Nano manipulator is used to manufacture Carbon NanoTube(CNT) tips. Using nano manipulator, operator attaches a CNT at the apex of Atomic Force Microscope(AFM) tip, which requires a mastery of mechanics and long manufacture time. Nano manipulator is installed inside a Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) chamber to observe the operation. This paper presents a control scheme for horizontal axes of nano manipulator via processing SEM image. Edges of AFM tip and CNT are first detected, and the position information so obtained is fed to control horizontal axes of nano manipulator. That is, a visual servoing loop is realized to control the axes more precisely in nano scale.

  • The key points of the CTP board is as follows: Film, brightness, plate exposure is eliminated, the reduction of personal expenses, and the reduction of time consumption. But above all, the accurate reappearance of the highlighting and shadow portion as well as self modification of the dust edge portion stands out as the most impressive improvements. In this paper, using a digital test from 4.0 and a Thermal CTP color printing control, the two parts of the Thermal CTP utilized a 1%-99% dot reappearance. Also, using an opposite line target, the results of the CTP plates and printing were compared. Finally, research was made on the printing quality on the slur development of the plate and the result when there was a lack of weave connection.

  • This paper is proposed a watermarking technique for copyright protection of multimedia contents. We proposed adaptive watermark detection algorithm using stochastic perceptual model and statistical decision method in DMWT(discrete multi wavelet transform) domain. The stochastic perceptual model calculates NVF(noise visibility function) based on statistical characteristic in the DMWT. Watermark detection algorithm used the likelihood ratio depend on Bayes' decision theory by reliable detection measure and Neyman-Pearson criterion. To reduce visual artifact of image, in this paper, adaptively decide the embedding number of watermark based on DMWT, and then the watermark embedding strength differently at edge and texture region and flat region embedded when watermark embedding minimize distortion of image. In experiment results, the proposed statistical decision method based on multiwavelet domain could decide watermark detection.

  • This paper presents the implementation of an automatic road sign recognizer for an intelligent transport system. In this system, lists of road signs are processed with actions such as line segmentation, single sign segmentation, and storing an artificial sign in the database. The process of taking the video stream and extracting the road sign and storing in the database is called the road sign recognition. This paper presents a study on recognizing traffic sign patterns using a segmentation technique for the efficiency and the speed of the system. The image is converted from one scale to another scale such as RGB to grayscale or grayscale to binary. The images are pre-processed with several image processing techniques, such as threshold techniques, Gaussian filters, Canny edge detection, and the contour technique.

  • Mongolian historical and cultural monuments on settlement areas of stone inscriptions, stone images, rock-drawings, remains of cities, architecture are still telling us their stories. These monuments depict the understanding of the word, philosophical and artistic outlook, beliefs, religion, national art, language, culture and traditions of Mongols [1]. Nowadays computer science, especially computer vision is applying in the other science fields. The main problem is how to apply and which algorithm can detect and classify the objects correctly. In this paper, we propose a method to detect object from Mongolian nomadic environment images. This work proposes a method for object detection that is the combination of the binary operations in the edge detection results. We found out the best method and parameters of state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms. In experimental result, we evaluate our results with 10-fold cross validation and split 66% strategies.
