In this paper, a novel watermarking technique is proposed to authenticate the owner-ship of copyright for the digital contents. Using the 2-level DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform) we divide a specific frequency band into detailed blocks and apply PIM(picture information measure). After the complexity is calculated, the watermark is embedded in only on high complexity areas. Conventional watermarking technique damages to the original image, because it does not consider the feature of the whole area or a specific frequency band. Easily affected by noise and compression, it is difficult to extract the watermark. However, the proposed watermarking technique, considering the complexity of input image, does not damage to the original image Simulation result show that the proposed technique has the robustness of JPEG compression, noise and filtering such as a general signal processing

This paper discusses the feasibility of Ultrasonic Nondestructive Evaluation (UNDE) technique for sport weld quality. Ultrasonic c-scan image assisted by image processing technique was used for Nondestructive Evaluation(NDE) of spot weld quality. Ultrasonic testing results obtained were confirmed and compared by Optical Microscope and SAM(Scanning Acoustic Mircroscope) observation of the spot-weld cross section, The results show that the nugget dinameter can be successfully measured with the accuracy of 0.5mm. It was ascertained that ultrasonic c-scan technique is very effective method for the sake of the approach to the quantitative measurement of nugget diameter and the discrimination of the corona bond from nugget. Additional support for the above conclusions is provided by the results for galvanized steel. The ultrasonic results for galvanized welds generally correspond to the results for uncoated steel. Finally, it was found that the above-mentioned technique can be sufficiently applied to NDE method for securing the Quality Assurance(QA) of spot welded products in production line.

The flow field around four cylinders for various angles was investigated utilizing particle image velocimetry(PIV) technique. Flow field was recorded by video camera first. Then application of PIV technique was done to the flow field. The results turned out to be useful to analyze complex flow field around multiple cylinders.

In spite of advances in image resolution and film contrast, check screen/film mammography remains one of diagnostic imaging modality where the image interpretation is very difficult. For the enhancement of film mammography, in this paper, dyadic wavelet transform is introduced. An unsharp masking technique is proposed and performed in wavelet domain. In addition, simple nonlinear enhancement and a denosing stage that preserves edges using wavelet shrinkage are computed into this technique. In this paper. we propose a new method for the gain setting of nonlinear enhancement and show result and comparison.

The histogram specification is to change the histogram shape of the image into the already defined shape. This technique can be applied usefully in various image processing fields which include a machine vision. However, the histogram specification technique has its basic limits. For example, the histogram does not have location information of pixel within the image and receives the digital image, which is stored through a quantization process, as an input. Namely, the accuracy of specification falls in the high-resolution image because the larger the resolution of image is becoming, the more the pixels having similar value are becoming. Therefore, we proposed the multiresolution histogram specification method for improving the accuracy of specification. Consequently, we can know that if the histogram specification is accomplished by using the proposed algorithm, destination image and source image were changed almost similarly.

This paper proposes a method to improve the image quality by designing Unsharp Mask Filter (UMF) based on Retinex theory which controls the frequency pass characteristics adaptively. Conventional unsharp masking technique uses blurring image to emphasize sharpness of image. Unsharp Masking(UM) adjusts the original image and sigma to obtain a high frequency component to be emphasized by the difference between the blurred image and the high frequency component to the original image, thereby improving the contrast ratio of the image. In this paper, we design a Unsharp Mask Filter(UMF) that can process the contrast ratio improvement method of Unsharp Masking(UM) technique with one filtering. We adaptively process the contrast ratio improvement using Unsharp Mask Filter(UMF). We propose a method based on Retinex theory for adaptive processing. For adaptive filtering, we control the weights of Unsharp Mask Filter(UMF) based on the human visual system and output more effective results.

본 논문은 저대비 영상을 처리하여 보다 향상된 영상을 얻고자 펴지 함소와 개선된 IAFC 모델을 적용한 영상 대비 향상 기법을 제안한다. 저대비에 의한 영상 정보의 불확실성이 무작위성보다 명암도의 모호성과 퍼지성에 근거한다는 점에서 퍼지 집합이론을 영상 향상 기법을 개발하는데 적용한다. 영상 향상의 단계를 퍼지화, 대비 강화 연산, 비퍼지화 단계로 나눠볼 수 있으며, 퍼지화 및 비퍼지화 과정에서 적절한 교차점 선택이 요구되고 이때 개선된 IAFC 모델을 적용하여 최적의 교차점을 선택한다. 데이터 대한 정신없이 임계 파라미터를 조정함으로써 클러스터링을 할 수 있는 개선된 IAFC 모델로 두 클래스만을 형성하도록 하여 명암도의 애매성이 최대가 되는 교차점을 찾아 대비를 강화시킨다. 대비 향상의 정략적 측정을 위해 퍼지성 지수를 사용하며 히스토그램 균등화 기법을 사용한 대비 향상 결과와 비교한다. 저대비 영상에 대해 최적의 교차점의 위치를 정하는 제안한 기법의 결과가 많은 실험영상을 통해 우수함을 보여주고 있다.

본 논문에서는 DCT 영역에서 스크램블된 이진 위상 컴퓨터형성홀로그램을 이용한 디지털 영상 워터마킹 기술을 제안하였다. 워터마크 삽입과정은 워터마크로 사용되는 은닉영상 대신 은닉영상을 손실 없이 재생할 수 있는 이진 위상 컴퓨터홀로그램을 생성하고 이를 스크램블기법으로 암호화 하여 워터마크로 사용한다. 그리고 암호화된 워터마크에 가중치 함수를 곱하고 호스트영상의 DCT 영역에서 DC성분에 삽입한 후 IDCT를 수행한다. 워터마크의 추출은 워터마킹된 영상과 원래의 호스트영상의 DCT계수 차이를 구하고, 삽입시 적용한 가중치 함수를 나눈 후 디스크램블링 하여 복호화 한다 그리고 복호화된 워터마크를 역푸리에 변환하여 은닉영상을 재생한다 마지막으로 원래의 은닉영상과 복호화된 은닉영상과의 상관을 통해 워터마크의 존재여부를 결정한다. 제안된 워터마킹 기술은 이진 값으로 구성된 은닉영상의 홀로그램정보를 이용하고 스크램블링 암호화 기법을 활용하였음으로 기존의 어떠한 워터마킹 기술보다 압축, 잡음 및 절단과 같은 다양한 외부공격에 안전하고 견실한 특징을 가지고 있음을 컴퓨터시뮬레이션을 통해 그 장점들을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we contructed extended Kalman filter for the image navigation systems. The conventional extended Kalman filter methode are simulated for nonlinear measurement systems. In addition, we designed a maneuvering target tracking filter using Singer's model technique and input estimation technique by Chan. Simulation results show that Chan's input estimation technique has performed better than Singer's technique.

In the analysis of the mass distribution and SMD(Sauter Mean Diameter), planar laser imaging technique is a convenient and useful one when compared to the mechanical pattemator or PDPA (Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer). But recorded signals at cameras and intensity of laser are distorted by attenuation. Using experimental datum and assumptions, we study measurement errors due to attenuation in plannar image technique.
