Recently, Fire watching and dangerous substances monitoring system has been being developed to enhance various fire related security. It is generally assumed that fire flame extraction plays a very important role on this monitoring system. In this study, we propose the fire flame extraction method of Non-Residential Facilities based on core object extraction in image. A core object is defined as a comparatively large object at center of the image. First of all, an input image and its decreased resolution image are segmented. Segmented regions are classified as the outer or the inner region. The outer region is adjacent to boundaries of the image and the rest is not. Then core object regions and core background regions are selected from the inner region and the outer region, respectively. Core object regions are the representative regions for the object and are selected by using the information about the region size and location. Each inner region is classified into foreground or background region by comparing its values of a color histogram intersection of the inner region against the core object region and the core background region. Finally, the extracted core object region is determined as fire flame object in the image. Through experiments, we find that to provide a basic measures can respond effectively and quickly to fire in non-residential facilities.

The color of objects varies with changes in illuminant color and viewing conditions. As a consequence, color boundaries are influenced by a large variety of imaging variables such as shadows, highlights, illumination, and material changes. Therefore, invariant color models are useful for a large number of applications such as object recognitions, detections, and segmentations. In this paper, we propose invariant color models. These color models are independent of the object geometry, object pose, and illumination. From these color models, color invariant edges are derived. To show the validity of the proposed invariant color models, some examples are given.

In this paper, we introduced design of intelligent surveillance camera system and typical event processing scenario for urban transit. To analyze video, we studied events that frequently occur in surveillance camera system. Event processing scenario is designed for seven representative situations(designated area intrusion, object abandon, object removal in designated area, object tracking, loitering and congestion measurement) in urban transit. Our system is optimized for low hardware complexity, real time processing and scenario dependent solution.

We studied about dosimetry according to the X-ray tube voltage, radiation field object thickness and obtained results as follow. 1. Secondary ray involing rate in the penetrated radiation increased proportion to the tube voltage, but its rate is more larger at the small radiation fields. than large fields. 2. Secondary ray involving rate in the penetrated radiation increased at thick object and large exposure fields. But saturated phenomenon appeared at limited field. 3. Secondary involving rate of acryl phantom is more top place than water, paraffin and aluminum phantom.

This paper presents a new feature extraction technique, correlation coefficient and Manhattan distance (MD) based method for recognition of rotated object in an image. This paper also represented a new concept of intensity invariant. We extracted global features of an image and converts a large size image into a one-dimensional vector called circular feature vector's (CFVs). An especial advantage of the proposed technique is that the extracted features are same even if original image is rotated with rotation angles 1 to 360 or rotated. The proposed technique is based on fuzzy sets and finally we have recognized the object by using histogram matching, correlation coefficient and manhattan distance of the objects. The proposed approach is very easy in implementation and it has implemented in Matlab7 on Windows XP. The experimental results have demonstrated that the proposed approach performs successfully on a variety of small as well as large scale rotated images.

This paper introduces robust tracking algorithm for fast and erratic moving object. CAMSHIFT algorithm has less computation and efficient performance for object tracking. However, the method fails to track a object if it moves out of search window by fast velocity and/or large movement. The size of the search window in CAMSHIFT algorithm should be selected manually also. To solve these problems, we propose an efficient prediction technique for fast movement of object using Kalman Filter with automatic initial setting and variable configuration technique for search window. The proposed method is compared to the traditional CAMSHIFT algorithm for searching and tracking performance of objects on test image frames.

In this paper, we propose a new object tracking algorithm using deformed template and Level-Set theory, which is robust against background variation, object flexibility and occlusion. The proposed tracking algorithm consists of two steps. The first step is an estimation of object shape and location, on the assumption that the transformation of object can be approximately modeled by the affine transform. The second step is a refinement of the object shape to fit into the real object accurately, by using the potential energy map and the modified Level Set speed function. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can track non-rigid objects with large variation in the backgrounds.

Object-oriented analysis-synthesis coding subdivides each image of a sequence into moving objects and compensates the motion of each object. Thus it can reconstruct real motion better than conventional motion-compensated coding techniques at very-low-bit-rates. It uses a mapping parameter technique for estimating motion information of each object. Since a mapping parameter technique uses gradient operators it is sensitive to redundant details and noise. To accurately determine mapping parameters, we propose a new analysis method using integral projections for estimation of gradient values. Also to reconstruct correctly the local motion the proposed algorithm divides an image into segmented objects each of which having uniform motion information while the conventional one assumes a large object having the same motion information. Computer simulation results with several test sequences show that the proposed image analysis method in object-oriented analysis-synthesis coding shows better performance than the conventional one.

Unification of neural network with a hierarchical pattern recognition is presented for recognizing large set of objects. A two-step identification procedure is developed for pattern recognition: coarse and fine identification. The coarse identification is designed for finding a class of object while the fine identification procedure is to identify a specific object. During the training phase a course neural network is trained for clustering larger set of reference objects into a number of groups. For training a fine neural network, expert neural network is also trained to identify a specific object within a group. The presented idea can be interpreted as two step identification. Experimental results are given to verify the proposed methodology.

Depth extraction using the structured illumination method is popularly applied since it has the benefit of measuring the object without contact. With multiple spatial frequencies and phase-shifting techniques, it is possible to extract the depth of objects with large discontinuity. For applications such as 3D (Three Dimensional) displays, 3D information of the object is required and is useful if corresponding to each view of the display. For this purpose, hypercentric optics is appropriate to measure the depth information of an object with a large field of view that is applicable for a 3D display. By experiment, we present the feasibility for phase-shifting profilometry using hypercentric optics to obtain the depth information of an object with the field of view appropriate for a 3D display.
