Canny edge detection of the image is composed of four kinds of Gaussian filter, gradient calculation, Non-maximum suppression, and Hypothesis Thresholding. Feature is the ratio between the vehicle body, the windows, and the wheels obtained from the edge image. Features that make the proportion of these vehicles are different for each respective model. We have identified by application of this algorithm where only a small vehicle.

지금까지 영상 콘텐츠 제작 기술의 발전은 SD(Standard Definition)에서 시작하여 HD(High Definition)와 FHD(Full High Definition)를 거쳐, UHD(Ultra High Definition)에 이르기까지 화질을 중심으로 이루어져 왔다. UHD 에 이르며 육안으로는 그 이상의 해상도로 제작된 콘텐츠와 구분하는 것이 힘들어졌으며, 이에 영상 콘텐츠 제작은 화질이 아닌 제한된 촬영 장비들로부터 촬영 방법, 영상 화각의 개선 작업 등으로 그 방향을 전환하고 있다. 이의 연장선 상에서 360 도 영상에 대한 기술개발이 활발히 이루어 지고 있다. 방송 분야에서는 360 도 영상의 실시간 스트리밍 적용 가능성이 모색되고 있는데, 이것이 가능 하려면 대량의 동영상 데이터를 실시간으로 스티칭하여 전달하는 기술이 필요하다. 따라서 고속 이미지 스티칭이 가능해질 경우 실시간 동영상 스티칭을 통해 방송 통신 분야에서의 서비스 향상에 기여할 것으로 보인다. 본 논문은 이미지의 edge 정보를 방향성을 가진 데이터로 분할하여 특징점을 추출하고, 이후 가중치를 통한 특징점 매칭으로 기존의 이미지 스티칭 방법 보다 빠른 속도의 알고리즘을 제안한다.

In the process of transmitting images, there are several different underlying causes of degradation that have been occuring. The main underlying cause of the degradation has been attributed to the noise. The most representive method of removal noise of image, which is caused by impulse noise, is using the SM filter. At edge the filter has a special feature which has a tendency to decrease. As a result, this paper we proposed the nonlinear filter using the form of mask and the probability of the impulse noise to restore the image considering edge quality in the impulse noise environment. And through the simulation, we compared with the existing methods and capabilties.

The image interpolation is one of an image preprocessing process to heighten a resolution. The conventional image interpolation used much to concept that it put in other pixel to select the nearest value in a pixel simply, and use much the temporal object interpolation techniques to do the image interpolation by detecting motion in a moving picture presently. In this paper, it is proposed the image interpolation techniques using the fuzzy wavelet base function. This is applied to embody a correct edge image and a natural image when expand part of the still image by applying the fuzzy wavelet base function coefficient to the conventional B-spline function. And the proposal algorithm in this paper is confirmed to improve about 1.2831 than the image applying the conventional B-spline function through the computer simulation.

To complement inaccurate edge information and detect correctly the boundary of a vehicle in an image, an extended edge analysis technique is presented in this paper. The vehicle is detected using the bottom boundary generated by a vehicle and the road surface and the left and right side boundaries of the vehicle. The proposed extended edge analysis method extracts the horizontal edge by merging or dividing the nearby edges inside the region of interest set beforehand because various noises deteriorates the horizontal edge which can be a bottom boundary. The horizontal edge is considered as the bottom boundary and the vertical edges as the side boundaries of a vehicle if the extracted horizontal edge intersects with two vertical edges which satisfy the vehicle width condition at the height of the horizontal edge. This proposed algorithm is more efficient than the other existing methods when the road surface is complex. It is proved by the experiments executed on the roads having various backgrounds.

In this paper, we propose an edge directed color demosaicing algorithm considering color channel correlation. The proposed method consists of local region classification step and edge directional interpolation step. In the first step, each region of a given Bayer image is classified as normal edge, pattern edge, and flat regions by using intra channel and inter channel gradients. Especially, two criteria and verification process for the normal edge and pattern edge classification are used to reduce edge direction estimation error, respectively. In the second step, edge directional interpolation process is performed according to characteristics of the classified regions. For horizontal and vertical directional interpolations, missing color components are obtained from interpolation equations based on intra channel and inter channel correlations in order to improve the performance of the directional interpolations. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms conventional approaches in both objective and subjective terms.

Mid-wave infrared (MWIR) imagery, due to its ability to capture the temperature of land cover and objects, serves as a crucial data source in various fields including environmental monitoring and defense. The KOMPSAT-3A satellite acquires MWIR imagery with high spatial resolution compared to other satellites. However, the limited spatial resolution of MWIR imagery, in comparison to electro-optical (EO) imagery, constrains the optimal utilization of the KOMPSAT-3A data. This study aims to create a highly visible MWIR fusion image by leveraging the edge information from the KOMPSAT-3A panchromatic (PAN) image. Preprocessing is implemented to mitigate the relative geometric errors between the PAN and MWIR images. Subsequently, we employ a pre-trained pixel difference network (PiDiNet), a deep learning-based edge information extraction technique, to extract the boundaries of objects from the preprocessed PAN images. The MWIR fusion imagery is then generated by emphasizing the brightness value corresponding to the edge information of the PAN image. To evaluate the proposed method, the MWIR fusion images were generated in three different sites. As a result, the boundaries of terrain and objects in the MWIR fusion images were emphasized to provide detailed thermal information of the interest area. Especially, the MWIR fusion image provided the thermal information of objects such as airplanes and ships which are hard to detect in the original MWIR images. This study demonstrated that the proposed method could generate a single image that combines visible details from an EO image and thermal information from an MWIR image, which contributes to increasing the usage of MWIR imagery.
