Satellite remote sensing images have much more information compared to a paper map. But these images are generally handled as particular image format gained from optical sensor, and must be processed and analyzed by computer with high priced digital image processing system. For the extraction of digital elevation model(DEM) from satellite image, we used the overlay image by SPOT-3 of Chuncheon area at the Kangwon province. According to the image condition, the precious geometric correction, the bundle adjustment for ortho-image generation and the stereo image mapping by several technical approaches were processed. So that we developed the methods of automatic DEM extraction and efficient stereo image map generation which can improve the digital image processing steps. Also, we applied the multiple direction birdeye view image for modeling and analysis using the remotely sensed overlay images with high resolution.

In this paper, we present morphology-based step region extraction and regularized iterative point-spread-function (PSF) estimation methods. The proposed PSF estimation method uses canny edge detector to extract the edge of the input image. We extract feasible vertical and horizontal edges using morphology analysis, such as the hit-or-miss transform. Given extracted edges we estimate the optimal step-response using flattening and normalization processes. The PSF is finally characterized by solving the equation which relates the optimal step response and the 2D isotropic PSF. We shows the restored image by the estimated PSF. The proposed algorithm can be applied a fully digital auto-focusing system without using mechanical focusing parts.

In general, the informations of the inner image that user interested in are limited to a special domain. In this paper, as using Wavelet Transform for dividing image into high frequency and low frequency, We can separate foreground including many data. After calculating object boundary of separated part, We extract special features using Color Coherence Vector. According to results of this experiment, the method of comparing data extracting foreground features is more effective than comparing data extracting features of entire image when we extract the image user interested in.

In this paper, a moving object surveillance system, which can extract moving object in real-time, using image subtraction method is described. This technique based on the novelty filter having the structure of neural network associative memory. Digital arithmetic and timing control parts were composed of hardwired controller to treat two-dimensional massive image information. SRAMS having 20 ns access time were used for the image buffer that has high speed write/read property. Image extraction algorithm is discussed and supported by simulation and experiments.

The feature points of an image play a very important role in understanding the image. Especially, when an image is composed of lines, vertices of the image offer informations about its property and structure. In this paper, a series of process for extracting feature points from actual IC image is described. This result can be used to acquire CIF ( Caltech Intermediate Form ) file.

This paper proposes an image based method for arranging ship blocks in a dockyard. The problem of appropriately arranging numerous blocks has to be carefully planned because it has close relation to the effectiveness of the whole working process. To implement the system, the block shape and feature points have to be obtained from block image. The block arrangement system can be implemented by the fusion of the block shape extraction and image matching technology.

License plate recognition system for an exclusive bus-lane is made of 5 core parts which are vehicle detection, image acquisition individual character extraction, character recognition and data transmission. Among them, the accuracy of license plate extraction can bring effect significantly to the accuracy of a whole system recognition rate also the more exact extraction of license plate is required in various weather and environment conditions. Therefore in this paper we propose a plat extraction algorithm that makes pyramid structure to reduced the extraction processing time binarizes plate's template region using adaptive thresholding extracts candidate region containing plate, and verifies a final region using plate character distribution characteristics among the candidates. Experimenal results were exactly extracted the license plate region by using proposed method to the image obtained in an exclusive bus-lane with various weather and environment conditions.

This paper describes an implementation of road network extraction algorithms for satellite images. We propose a new road network extraction algorithm which uses magnitude and direction information of edges. The results of applying the proposed algorithm to satellite images are presented and compared with those of other algorithms.

In this paper we introduce some existing preprocessing algorithm for character recognition and consider feature extraction method for the recognition of low resolution document. Image recognition of low resolution document including fax images can be frequently misclassified due to the blurring effect, slope effect, noise and so on. In order to overcome these difficulties in the character recognition we considered a mesh feature extraction and contour direction code feature. System for automatic character recognition were suggested.

This letter presents a new feature extraction method based on the private energy map (PEM) technique to utilize the energy characteristics of a facial image. Compared with a non-facial image, a facial image shows large energy congestion in special regions of discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients. The PEM is generated by energy probability of the DCT coefficients of facial images. In experiments, higher face recognition performance figures of 100% for the ORL database and 98.8% for the ETRI database have been achieved.
