In this paper, we propose a new scheme of motion tracking based on fuzzy inference (FI)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-temporal error, We develop a fuzzy inference algorithm. Some experiments are peformed to 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.

The system realization for printimage enhancement of electrothermal printer using thermal historic management is presented. The thermal historic control technique reduces the blur that the high density thermal print head(TPH) and high speed printing in the 300dpi high is increased edge blur of printed image. The experiment result is that the system enhance the quality of print image.

To get a good result of the feature-based stereo matching, contour of buildings must be extracted exactly. In this paper, an algorithm that extracts contour of flat top buildings exactly is proposed. The Algorithm is composed of three steps. One is to find corner points of 4 types in whole image and another is to extract exact lines between coners by edge following technique, the third is to extract exact contour of buildings using binding structures. We have a good result in extracting contour of buildings.

This paper presents a new technique to implement the real-time recognition for shapes and model number of parts based on an active vision approach. The main focus of this paper is to apply a technique of 3D object recognition for non-contacting inspection of the shape and the external form state of precision parts based on the pattern recognition. In the field of computer vision, there have been many kinds of object recognition approaches. And most of these approaches focus on a method of recognition using a given input image (passive vision). It is, however, hard to recognize an object from model objects that have similar aspects each other. Recently, it has been perceived that an active vision is one of hopeful approaches to realize a robust object recognition system. The performance is illustrated by experiment for several parts and models.

This paper proposes a method of detecting the license plates of vehicles. The proposed technology applicable to different formats of license plates detects the numbers by standardizing the images at edge points. Specifically, in accordance with the format of each license plate, the technology captures the image in the character segment, and compares it against the sample model to derive their similarity and identify the numbers. Characters with high similarities are used to form a group of candidates and to extract the final characters. Analyzing the experimental results found the similarity of the extracted characters exceeded 90%, whereas that of less identifiable numbers was markedly lower. Still, the accuracy of the extracted characters with the highest similarity was over 80%. The proposed technology is applicable to extracting the character patterns of certain formats in diverse and useful ways.

The standard definition of computational vision is a set of inverse problems of recovering surfaces from images. Thus the common characteristics of the most early vision problems are ill-posed. The main idea for solving ill-posed problems is to restrict the class of admissible solutions by introducing suitable a priori knowledge. Standard regurarization methods lead to satisfactory solutions of early vision problems but cannot deal effectively and directly with a few general problems, such as discontinuity and fusion of information from multiple modules. In this paper, we discuss limitations of standard regularization theory and present new stochastic method. We will outline a rigorous approach to overcome part of ill-posedness of image restoration, edge detection, and stereo vision problems, based on Bayes estimation and MRF(Markov random field) model, that effectively deals with the problems. This result makes one hope that this framework could be useful in the solution of other vision problems.

An effective algorithm for implementation of unmanned surveillance system which detects moving object from image sequences, predicts the direction of it, and drives the camera in real time is proposed. Outputs of proposed algorithm are coordinates of location of moving object, and they are converted to the values according to camera model. As a pre- processing, extraction of moving object and shape discrimination are performed. Existence of the moving object or scene change is detected by computing the temporal derivatives of consecutive two or more images in a sequence, and this result of derivatives is combined with the edge map from one original gray level image to obtain the position of moving object. Shape discri-mination(Target identification) is performed by analysis of distribution of projection profiles in x and y directions. To reduce the prediction error due to the fact that the motion cha- racteristic of walking man may have an abrupt change of moving direction, an order adaptive lattice structured linear predictor is proposed.

This paper presents face features detection and a new physiological neuro-fuzzy learning method by using two-dimensional variances based on variation of gray level and by learning for a statistical distribution of the detected face features. This paper reports a method to learn by not using partial face image but using global face image. Face detection process of this method is performed by describing differences of variance change between edge region and stationary region by gray-scale variation of global face having featured regions including nose, mouse, and couple of eyes. To process the learning stage, we use the input layer obtained by statistical distribution of the featured regions for performing the new physiological neuro-fuzzy algorithm.

동영상 내에서 이동하는 객체를 추적하기 위해서는 우수한 객체 검출 방법이 필요하다. 이를 위하여, 본 논문에서는 연속된 영상에서의 인접한 프레임들을 이용하여 객체의 형태를 검출하고자 한다. 인접한 프레임들의 합성과 차를 이용하여 움직이는 객체의 대략적인 형태를 알아내고, 대략적인 형태를 이진화시킨 영상과 현재 프레임의 에지 영상과의 AND 연산을 통하여 객체의 형태를 알아 낼 수 있다. 그리고, 이 과정에서 생성되는 노이즈를 채움 연산과 영역화 연산을 통하여 제거할 수 있으며, 얻어진 객체의 크기 비율을 고려한 수직 투영을 통하여 다중 객체를 잘 분리해 낼 수 있었다.

A new approach, to seam tracking for robotic are welding is proposed. In this approach, the weld model is a snapshot image and the acquired image is analyzed and compared to the welding database which contains CAD data, weld positions, weld parameters, etc. This paper presents a fast and robust algorithm for the Hough Transform. This modified Hough Transform(MHT) algorithm uses the least-squares regression analysis method in order to approximate the edge lines more precisely, and leads to a significant reduction in both computation and storage. In comparison with the conventional seam tracking methods, this new approach has the advantages of low cost, continuous welding, and various type welding.
