The author has studied maxillo-facial anatomical landmarks using Status X with two methods. The one has performed by application of contrast media on the human dry skull, the other has performed on living human skull as control group. Comparing the panagraphs taken by two methods, the author has drawn following results: 1. The panagraphs revealed the undistorted, highly sharp panoramic shadows of each jaw on a film. 2. Diminishing the inserted anode tube overlapping-free representation of the anterior teeth was taken. 3. Alternating the head position of the objects, direction of anode tube and film placing, the shadows of temporo-mandibular joint and zygomatic arch were taken without overlapping the other bone tissues. 4. In the panagraphs applied various shaped contrast media to each anatomical landmark, a radio-anatomical atlas which is necessary to interpret various bone tissues was taken. 5. In order to interpret panagraphic shadows easily, the author has tried this study by comparing the films of the living human skull with the films of the human dry skull applied contrast media.

In this paper, we present localization and autonomous navigation method using GPU(Graphics Processing Unit)-based SIFT(Scale-Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm and virtual force method for mobile robots. To do this, at first, we propose the localization method to recognize the landmark using the GPU-based SIFT algorithm and to update the position using extended Kalman filter. And then, we propose the A-star algorithm for path planning and the virtual force method for autonomous navigation of the mobile robot. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed method through some experiments using the mobile robot with OPRoS(Open Platform for Robotic Services).

In this paper, a foggy-degraded image restoration technique with a physics-based degradation model is proposed for the measurement system. When the degradation model is used for the image restoration, its parameters and a distance from the spreader to the camera have to be previously known. In the proposed image restoration technique, the parameters are estimated from variances and averages of intensities on two foggy-degraded landmark images taken at different distances. Foggy-degraded images can be restored with the estimated parameters and the distance measured by the measurement system. On the basis of the experimental results, the performance of the proposed foggy-degraded image restoration technique was verified.

This paper propose a localization system of indoor mobile robots. The localization system includes camera and artificial landmarks for global positioning, and encoders and gyro sensors for local positioning. The Kalman filter is applied to take into account the stochastic errors of all sensors. Also we develop a dead reckoning system to estimate the global position when the robot moves the blind spots where it cannot see artificial landmarks, The learning engine using modular networks is designed to improve the performance of the dead reckoning system. Experimental results are then presented to verify the usefulness of the proposed localization system.

This paper presents an algorithm in which a feature map is built and localization of a mobile robot is carried out for indoor environments. The algorithm proposes an approach which extracts scale-invariant features of natural landmarks from a pair of stereo images. The feature map is built using these features and updated by merging new landmarks into the map and removing transient landmarks over time. And the position of the robot in the map is estimated by comparing with the map in a database by means of an Extended Kalman filter. This algorithm is implemented and tested using a Pioneer 2-DXE and preliminary results are presented in this paper.

증강현실 시스템을 구축하는데 있어 실시간 가상객체 위치 추적은 실세계와 가상객체를 정확하고 깊이감 있게 정합하고, 실세계 움직임에 따른 가상객체 위치변화 추적에 중요하다. 따라서 실시간 카메라 입력영상으로부터 가상객체의 위치를 추적하는데 있어 정확성과 함께 빠른 수행시간이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 HMD(Head Mounted Display)장비에 장착된 두 개의 카메라로부터 관찰자의 시점 이동에 따른 가상객체 정합위치 정보를 입력받아 그 위치를 정확하게 인식하고 빠르게 추적하기 위하여 인위적인 랜드마크 형태를 정의하였으며, 실시간 입력영상으로부터 랜드마크 중심점 위치를 실시간으로 추적하기 위해 일정시간 간격마다 입력받은 첫 영상으로부터 얻은 랜드마크 영역 정보를 이용하여 중심점의 위치를 추적함으로써 수행시간을 줄이고자 하였다.

Localization is one of the key problems in the navigation of autonomous mobile robots. The probabilistic Markov localization approaches offer a good mathematical framework to deal with the uncertainty of environment and sensor readings but their use for realtime applications is limited by their computational complexity. This paper aims to reduce the high computational cost associated with the probabilistic Markov localization algorithm. We propose a hybrid landmark-based localization method combining triangulation and probabilistic approaches, which can efficiently update position probability grid, while the probabilistic framework allows to make use of any available sensor data to refine robot´s belief about its current location. The simulation results show the effectiveness and robustness of the method.

In the ground environment, mobile robot research uses sensors such as GPS and optical cameras to localize surrounding landmarks and to estimate the position of the robot. However, an underwater environment restricts the use of sensors such as optical cameras and GPS. Also, unlike the ground environment, it is difficult to make a continuous observation of landmarks for location estimation. So, in underwater research, artificial markers are installed to generate a strong and lasting landmark. When artificial markers are acquired with an underwater sonar sensor, different types of noise are caused in the underwater sonar image. This noise is one of the factors that reduces object detection performance. This paper aims to improve object detection performance through distortion and rotation augmentation of training data. Object detection is detected using a Faster R-CNN.

본 연구에서는 휴대용 초음파 피부 미용기 사용시 집속 초음파의 조사 위치를 증강현실 (Augmented Reality: AR) 기법을 통해 사용자에게 보여주어 안전하게 셀프시술을 하도록 하는 안드로이드 앱을 개발하고 시험을 통해 유용성을 보인다. 사용자가 초음파 미용기로 얼굴 부위를 시술하는 동안에 스마트폰 카메라를 통해 사용자의 얼굴과 얼굴위의 초음파 조사 위치를 실시간 검지한 후, 얼굴 영상위에 조사 위치를 표시하여 사용자에게 보여줌으로서, 초음파가 동일한 부위에 과도하게 중복되어 조사되지 않도록 한다. 이를 위해 ML-Kit를 이용하여 사용자 얼굴의 랜드마크(landmark)들을 실시간 검지하고 얼굴형상 기준 모델과 비교하여 얼굴의 회전과 이동 등의 자세를 추정한다. 미용기의 초음파 조사부위에 LED를 장착하고 조사 중에 작동시킨 후, LED의 불빛의 위치를 탐색하여 스마트폰 화면상의 초음파 조사 위치를 알아내고, 추정된 자세정보를 토대로 얼굴 영상위에 조사 위치를 정합시켜 표시한다. 앱에서 수행되는 각 작업들을 스레드와 타이머를 통해 구현하여 전체 작업이 75ms 이내에서 실행된다. 시험 결과, 120개의 초음파 조사 위치를 정합하고 표시하는 데 걸린 시간은 25ms 이하이고, 얼굴이 크게 회전하지 않는 경우 표시 정확도는 20mm 이내 임을 알 수 있다.

PURPOSE. This study aimed to predict the positional coordinates of incisor points from the scan data of conventional complete dentures and verify their accuracy. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The standard triangulated language (STL) data of the scanned 100 pairs of complete upper and lower dentures were imported into the computer-aided design software from which the position coordinates of the points corresponding to each landmark of the jaw were obtained. The x, y, and z coordinates of the incisor point (X_P, Y_P, and Z_P) were obtained from the maxillary and mandibular landmark coordinates using regression or calculation formulas, and the accuracy was verified to determine the deviation between the measured and predicted coordinate values. Y_P was obtained in two ways using the hamularincisive-papilla plane (HIP) and facial measurements. Multiple regression analysis was used to predict Z_P. The root mean squared error (RMSE) values were used to verify the accuracy of the X_P and Y_P. The RMSE value was obtained after crossvalidation using the remaining 30 cases of denture STL data to verify the accuracy of Z_P. RESULTS. The RMSE was 2.22 for predicting X_P. When predicting Y_P, the RMSE of the method using the HIP plane and facial measurements was 3.18 and 0.73, respectively. Cross-validation revealed the RMSE to be 1.53. CONCLUSION. Y_P and Z_P could be predicted from anatomical landmarks of the maxillary and mandibular edentulous jaw, suggesting that Y_P could be predicted with better accuracy with the addition of the position of the lower border of the upper lip.
