Recently, the spread of deep learning environments has increased the importance of dataset generation. Therefore, data is being augmented using GAN for efficient data set generation. However, several problems have been found in data generated using GAN, such as problems that occur in the early stages of learning and pixel breakage occurring in the generated image. In this paper, we intend to implement an image data selection algorithm to solve various problems arising from the existing GAN. The broken image screening algorithm was implemented to analyze the histogram distribution in the image and determine whether to store the generated image according to whether the result value satisfies the specified threshold value.

A land cover map provides basic information to help understand the current state of a region, but its utilization in the ecological research field has deteriorated due to limited temporal and spatial resolutions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of using a land cover map with data based on high resolution images acquired by UAV. Using the UAV, 10.5 cm orthoimages were obtained from the $2.5km^2$ study area, and land cover maps were obtained from object-based and pixel-based classification for comparison and analysis. From accuracy verification, classification accuracy was shown to be high, with a Kappa of 0.77 for the pixel-based classification and a Kappa of 0.82 for the object-based classification. The overall area ratios were similar, and good classification results were found in grasslands and wetlands. The optimal image segmentation weights for object-based classification were Scale=150, Shape=0.5, Compactness=0.5, and Color=1. Scale was the most influential factor in the weight selection process. Compared with the pixel-based classification, the object-based classification provides results that are easy to read because there is a clear boundary between objects. Compared with the land cover map from the Ministry of Environment (subdivision), it was effective for natural areas (forests, grasslands, wetlands, etc.) but not developed areas (roads, buildings, etc.). The application of an object-based classification method for land cover using UAV images can contribute to the field of ecological research with its advantages of rapidly updated data, good accuracy, and economical efficiency.

The massive green tide occurred every summer in the Yellow Sea since 2008, and many studies are being actively conducted to estimate the coverage of green tide through analysis of satellite imagery. However, there is no satellite images selection criterion for accurate coverage calculation of green tide. Therefore, this study aimed to find a suitable satellite image from for the comparison of the green tide coverage according to the spatial resolution of satellite image. In this study, Landsat ETM+, MODIS and GOCI images were used to coverage estimation and its spatial resolution is 30, 250 and 500 m, respectively. Green tide pixels were classified based on the NDVI algorithm, the difference of the green tide coverage was compared with threshold value. In addition, we estimate the proportion of the green tide in one pixel through the Linear Spectral Unmixing (LSU) method, and the effect of the difference of green tide ratio on the coverage calculation were evaluated. The result of green tide coverage from the calculation of the NDVI value, coverage of green tide usually overestimate with decreasing spatial resolution, maximum difference shows 1.5 times. In addition, most of the pixels were included in the group with less than 0.1 (10%) LSU value, and above 0.5 (50%) LSU value accounted for about 2% in all of three images. Even though classified as green tide from the NDVI result, it is considered to be overestimated because it is regarded as the same coverage even if green tide is not 100% filled in one pixel. Mixed-pixel problem seems to be more severe with spatial resolution decreases.

Fractional values resulted from the spectral mixture analysis could be used to classify not only urban area with various materials but also forest area in more detailed spatial scale. Especially South Korea is largely consist of mixed forest, so the spectral mixture analysis is suitable as a classification method. For the successful classification using spectral mixture analysis, extraction of optimal endmembers is prerequisite process. Though geometric endmember selection has been widely used, it is barely suitable for forest area. Therefore, in this study, we modified Iterative Error Analysis (IEA), one of the most famous algorithms of image endmember selection which extracts pure pixel directly from the image. The endmembers which represent deciduous and coniferous trees are automatically extracted. The experiments were implemented on two sites of Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) and classified forest area into two types. Accuracies of each classification results were 86% and 90%, which mean proposed algorithm effectively extracted proper endmembers. For the more accurate classification, another substances like forest gap should be considered.

This paper presents the results of three-dimensional face point cloud smoothing based on a modified anisotropic diffusion method. The focus of this research was to obtain a 3D face point cloud with a smooth texture and number of vertices equal to the number of vertices input during the smoothing process. Different from other methods, such as using a template D face model, modified anisotropic diffusion only uses basic concepts of convolution and filtering which do not require a complex process. In this research, we used 6D point cloud face data where the first 3D point cloud contained data pertaining to noisy x-, y-, and z-coordinate information, and the other 3D point cloud contained data regarding the red, green, and blue pixel layers as an input system. We used vertex selection to modify the original anisotropic diffusion. The results show that our method has improved performance relative to the original anisotropic diffusion method.

선형혼합분광분석(LSU, Linear Spectral Unmixing) 모델은 위성 영상의 한 화소 값이 공간 내에 포함된 다양한 지표 대상물의 반사에너지가 혼합된 결과로 나타난다는 가정을 통해 화소이하(Sub-Pixel) 단위의 영상 분석을 수행하는 알고리즘의 한 형태이다. 분석의 결과는 한 화소에 존재하는 순수 대상물(Endmember)의 비율로 나타나며, 최소제곱법을 이용하여 결과를 도출하는 것이 일반적인 방법으로 알려져 있다. 하지만, 최소제곱법을 이용한 선형혼합분광분석모델은 기본적인 가정을 만족시키지 못하며, Endmember를 사용자가 임의로 지정해야 하기 때문에 영상 분석에 많은 어려움이 있다. 이런 단점을 극복하기 위해 무감독으로 추출된 Endmember를 이용한 제약선형분광혼합분석(Constrained Linear Spectral Unmixing) 모델을 본 연구를 통해 제안하고자 한다. 결과를 통해, 무감독 제약선형분광혼합분석 모델은 선형분광혼합분석 모델에 비해 각각의 Endmember에 대하여 제약조건을 만족하는 점유비율(Abundance) 정보를 제공하였으나, 비슷한 Endmember를 중복 추출할 수 있는 가능성도 지니고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we propose a new binocular stereo correspondence method by maximizing a fitness formulated by integrating two constraints of edge similarity and disparity smoothness simultaneously. The proposed stereopsis focusing to measure distances to leading vehicles on roads uses intensity gradients as matching attribute. In contrast to the previous work of area-based stereo matching, in which matching unit is a pixel, the matching unit of the proposed method becomes an area itself which is obtained by selecting a series of pixels enclosed by two pixels on the left and right boundaries of an object. This approach allows us to cope with real-time processing and to avoid window size selection problems arising from conventional area-based stereo.

채색화 기법은 일부 픽셀의 색상 정보를 이용하여 흑백의 이미지에 색상 정보를 추가하는 기법이다. 이러한 채색화 기법을 기반으로한 색상 이미지 압축기법들이 연구되고 있다. 색상 평면에서 대표적인 픽셀들을 소스 픽셀로 자동적으로 선택하고, 이 소스 픽셀들의 위치와 색상 정보만을 디코더에 압축하여 전송한다. 본 논문에서는 밝기 변화량을 이용하여 소스 픽셀의 위치를 결정함으로써, 디코더에서도 동일한 작업으로 소스 픽셀의 위치를 결정할 수 있다. 따라서 소스 픽셀에 대한 위치정보를 전송하기 위한 비트량을 줄임으로써 압축 효율을 높였다. 제안알고리듬은 디코더에서 색상정보의 복원에 이용하는 채색화 기법의 특성에 맞추어서 밝기가 평평하고 넓은 영역에서 먼저 소스픽셀을 선택하여, 이웃의 비슷한 밝기를 가지는 픽셀에 대한 색상 정보를 효율적으로 압축한다.

Motivation of this study is based on these two aspects: geologic uses of ASTER and application scheme of Spectral Mixture Analysis. This study aims at geologic mapping for mineral exploration using ASTER and LANDSAT 7 ETM+ at Mongolian plateau region by SMA. After basic pre-processing such as the normalization, geometric corrections and calibration of reflectance, related to endmembers selection and spectral signature deviation, both methods using spectral library and using PPI(Pixel Purity Index) are performed and compared on a given task. Based on these schemes, SMA is performed using LANDSAT 7 ETM+ and ASTER image. As the results, fraction map showing geologic rock types are enough to meet purposes such as geologic mapping and mineral potential mapping in the case of both uses of these different types of remotely sensed images. It concluded that this approach based on SMA with LANDSAT and ASTER is regarded as one of effective schemes for geologic remote sensing.

For the large-sized and post-ultra definition TFT-LCD, improved drivability is prerequisite not only for the integration of driving circuit on glass but also for the chargeability of each pixel. In order to meet required drivability, currently adopted process architecture and materials are modified for the RC delay reduction, including the drastic increase of gate bus thickness and its related solution for step coverage. We present new process architecture and material selection for the next generation TFT-LCD devices.
