In this paper, we propose an adaptive histogram projection technique for dynamic range compression and an efficient detail enhancement method which is enhancing strong edge while reducing noise. First, The high dynamic range image is divided into low-pass component and high-pass component by applying 'guided image filtering'. After applying 'guided filter' to high dynamic range image, second, the low-pass component of the image is compressed into 8-bit with the adaptive histogram projection technique which is using global standard deviation value of whole image. Third, the high-pass component of the image adaptively reduces noise and intensifies the strong edges using standard deviation value in local path of the guided filter. Lastly, the monitor display image is summed up with the compressed low-pass component and the edge-intensified high-pass component. At the end of this paper, the experimental result show that the suggested technique can be applied properly to the IR images of various scenes.

Consider a p-variate normal distribution ($p-q{\geq}3$, q = rank($P_V$) with a projection matrix $P_V$). Using a simple property of noncentral chi square distribution, the generalized Bayes estimators dominating the James-Stein estimator shrinking towards projection vectors under quadratic loss are given based on the methods of Brown, Brewster and Zidek for estimating a normal variance. This result can be extended the cases where covariance matrix is completely unknown or ${\sum}={\sigma}^2I$ for an unknown scalar ${\sigma}^2$.

본 논문에서는 도로 위 숫자 및 기호인식에 적합한 Calibration Model에 대하여 연구하였다. 기존에 제시된 Geometric Transform, Fisheye Projection, Caltech Toolbox 기반 방법으로 얻은 Calibration Model의 성능을 비교하였다. Geometric Transform은 Fisheye Distortion Correction에 부적합한 결과를 얻었고, Fisheye Projection은 성능은 좋으나 시스템에 사용할 Camera Lens의 Specification을 모르기 때문에 이를 예측해야 하는 단점이 있다. 마지막으로 Caltech Tool box 기반 방법은 Calibration을 위한 Keypoint를 수동으로 지정하다 보니까 이로 인한 오차가 존재하게 된다. Calibration을 시도 할 때마다 결과에 차이가 있었으며, Calibration 결과의 측면에서 Fisheye Projection이 가시적으로 가장 좋은 결과를 나타냈다.

Consistent and realistic error covariance information is important for position estimation, error analysis, fault detection, and integer ambiguity resolution for differential GNSS. In designing a position domain carrier-smoothed-code filter where incremental carrier phases are used for time-propagation, formulation of consistent error covariance information is not easy due to being bounded and temporal correlation of propagation noises. To provide consistent and correct error covariance information, this paper proposes two recursive filter algorithms based on carrier-smoothed-code techniques: (a) the stepwise optimal position projection filter and (b) the stepwise unbiased position projection filter. A Monte-Carlo simulation result shows that the proposed filter algorithms actually generate consistent error covariance information and the neglection of carrier phase noise induces optimistic error covariance information. It is also shown that the stepwise unbiased position projection filter is attractive since its performance is good and its computational burden is moderate.

We propose a rolled fingerprint merging algorithm that effectively merges plain fingerprints in consecutive frame units that are fed through rolling and detects more fingerprint minutiae in order to increase the fingerprint recognition rate. The proposed rolled fingerprint merging algorithm uses a adaptive projection mask; it contains a detector that separates plain fingerprints from the background and a projection mask generator that sequentially projects the detect ed images. In addition, in the merging unit, the pyramid-shaped projection method is used to detect merged rolled fingerprints from the generated variable projective mask, starting from the main images. Simulations show that the extracted minutia e are 46.79% more than those from plain fingerprints, and the proposed algorithm exhibits excellent performance by detecting 52.0% more good fingerprint minutiae that are needed for matching.

In this paper, we proposed a novel algorithm to detect the center of pupil in frontal view face. This algorithm, at first, extract an eye region from the face image using integral projection function and variance projection function. In an eye region, detect the center of pupil positions using circular hough transform with sobel edge mask. The experimental results show good performance in detecting pupil center from FERET face image.

Recently, we were able to get thinner projection supplied by multi detector CT. Not only 'axial projection' is used to decode the examination but asks resctructured projections in various directions. MPR technique is capable of drawing flexible curves to produce projection reenactment which enables describing details of a part that is desired but it has a disadvantage that curvy blood vessels like 'willis circle artery' distorting. This essay suggested Curved MPR method based on different disorders which was improved using distinction of HU value along with existing MPR method. After reconstructing the projection using the suggested method, the projection was transmitted by using PACS and it confirmed its usefulness of decoder's efficiency diagnosis.

Enhanced analysis is performed to design a wedge projection system with a slab structure that increases the projected image size. The specification values of the system such as the length of the slab structure and the imaging region are calculated and investigated using an optical simulation tool. We also propose a split imaging region method to represent a large tiled scene using the thin wedge waveguide structure. Experiments are performed to verify the feasibility of the proposed method.

In this paper, we propose a face region extraction algorithm using color information and projection. After the extraction of face candidate image using adaptive color information, we project it into vertical direction to estimate the width of the face. Then the redundant parts of the face are efficiently removed by using the estimated face width. And the width information of the face is used at the horizontal projection step to extract the height of the face, and non-face region such as the neck and some background regions, which are represented as the similar skin color, effectively eliminated. From the experiment results for the various images, the proposed algorithm shows more accurate results than the conventional algorithm.

Recently, mobile video communication is getting more and more popular. Visual quality and computational complexity are primary factors affecting performance of video communication. Frame rate up-conversion (FRC) is necessary for achieving high visual quality in mobile projection displays. In this paper, a FRC method using motion compensation based on block matching algorithm (BMA) with adaptive block size is proposed. In order to improve the accuracy of the estimated motion vectors, the motion vector refinement technique is proposed. Experiment results indicate that the proposed technique exhibits better performance with lower hardware complexity compared to the conventional methods.
