In this paper, we propose a preprocessing technique to solve the problems of action recognition with Equirectangular Projection (ERP) video. The preprocessing technique proposed in this paper assumes the person object as the subject of action, that is, the Object of Interest (OOI), and the surrounding area of the OOI as the ROI. The preprocessing technique consists of three modules. I) Recognize person object in the image with object recognition model. II) Create a saliency map from the input image. III) Select subject of action using recognized person object and saliency map. The subject boundary box of the selected action is input to the action recognition model in order to improve the action recognition performance. When comparing the performance of the proposed preprocessing method to the action recognition model and the performance of the original ERP image input method, the performance is improved up to 99.6%, and the action is obtained when only the OOI is detected. It can also see the effects of related video summaries.

Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) identifies patients' anatomical structures from MR or CT data sets. Recently, it becomes possible to generate MIP images with interactive speed by exploiting Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) even in large volume data sets. Generally, volume boundary plane is obliquely crossed with view-aligned texture plane in hardware-texture based volume rendering. Since the ray sampling distance is not increased at volume boundary in volume rendering, the aliasing problem occurs due to data loss. In this paper, we propose an efficient method to overcome this problem by Re-rendering volume boundary planes. Our method improves image quality to make dense distances between samples near volume boundary which is a high frequency area. Since it is only 6 clipping planes are additionally needed for Re-rendering, high quality rendering can be performed without sacrificing computational efficiency. Furthermore, our method couldbe applied to Minimum Intensity Projection (MinIP) volume rendering.

As the use of virtual environment for decision-making interior or architectural design has been increasingly broaden, the choice of media form-physical, objective properties of a display medium-became and important issue to take into consideration. This research deals with the effects and differences between two types of media for a virtual environment; wall projection screen(120") and PC monitor(17"). In addition, efficient adoption of the two media forms was also proposed in this research. A total of 90 subjects participated in pre-designed three experimental groups(A group: experiment with a wall projection screen, B group: experiment with PC monitor, C group: both) and answer the seating preferences, the presence inventory, and the decision confidence using a simulated virtual restaurant environment. The results are as follows: (1) seating preferences for the tables located in frequent traffic area and near other spaces such as restroom and th kitchen are significantly different by the media form. While there is no significant difference found in seating preferences for most tables except high traffic areas near entrances between the two media. This result demonstrates the effects of media type or screen size on user perception for the areas near structural or interior design elements. (2) The presence measure in this research consist of in this research consist of four factors: 'spatial presence,' 'object presence,' 'positive effects,' and 'the factor of negative effects. 'The mean values of the items involving engagement or interaction in the spatial presence factor and the object presence factor are significantly different by the media form. A higher sense of presence of presence was observed in the wall projection screen. (3) PC monitor condition was shown to provide a higher level of decision confidence. Based on the research finding, conclusions and implications are discussed.

Digital Elevation Model (DEM) generation from remotely sensed imagery is crucial for a variety of mapping applications such as ortho-photo generation, city modeling. High resolution imaging satellites such as SPOT-5, IKONOS, QUICK-BIRD, ORBVIEW constitute an excellent source for efficient and economic generation of DEM data. However, prerequisite knowledge in the areas of sensor modeling, epipolar resampling, and image matching is required to generate DEM from these high resolution satellite imagery. From the above requirements, epipolar resampling emerges as the most important factors. Research attempts in this area are still in high demand and short supply. Another cause that adds to the complication of the problem is that most studies of DEM generation from IKONOS scenes have been based on rational function model. In this paper, we proposed a new methodology for DEM generation from satellite scenes using parallel projection model which is sensor independent, makes it possible for sensor modeling and epipolar resampling by only few control points. The performance and feasibility of the developed methodology is evaluated through real dataset captured by IKONOS.

This study investigated the accuracy of magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and computed tomography angiography (CTA) in terms of reflecting the actual vascular length. Three-dimensional time of flight (3D TOF) MRA, 3D contrast-enhanced (CE) MRA, volume-rendering after CTA and maximum intensity projection were investigated using a flow model phantom with a diameter of 2.11 mm and area of $0.26cm^2$. 1.5 and 3.0 Tesla devices were used for 3D TOF MRA and 3D CE MRA. CTA was investigated using 16 and 64 channel CT scanners, and the images were transmitted and reconstructed by volume-rendering and maximum intensity projection, followed by conduit length measurement as described above. The smallest 3D TOF MRA measure was $2.51{\pm}0.12mm$ with a flow velocity of 40 cm/s using the 3.0 Tesla apparatus, and $2.57{\pm}0.07mm$ with a velocity of 71.5 cm/s using the 1.5 Tesla apparatus; both images were magnified from the actual measurement of 2.11 mm. The measurement with the 16 channel CT scanner was smaller ($3.83{\pm}0.37mm$) than the reconstructed image on maximum intensity projection. The images from CTA from examination apparatus and reconstruction technique were all larger than the actual measurement.

The national geodetic reference frame of Korea switched to the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF) in 2003. In order to study the land area changes, we calculated the entire land area of Korea using the administrative boundaries of census data provided by Statistics Korea. The standard transformation procedure by the National Geographic Information Institute (NGII) was followed. The Transverse Mercator (TM) projected coordinates were transformed into the GRS80-based world geodetic reference frame, and the ellipsoidal and the projected areas were calculated. The provinces that range over two projection origins were divided into two polygons and projected using appropriate origins. After the transformation, all boundaries were shifted in the northwestern direction, resulting in a decreased area of $1.36km^2$ (about 0.0013%) on the projected plane. Moving the boundaries into a high latitude area cancels out the effect of the enlarged ellipsoid. In addition, the rate of change shows that a higher-latitude province is more sensitive to the shift of the boundaries. The data by Statistics Korea is significantly different from those of the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs (MLTM), thus it is urgently recommended that the data are integrated and unified.

In this research mass of a plane strain two dimensional elastic concrete dam under gravitational and hydrostatic loads is minimized, through shape optimization of the dam cross section. Cross sectional area of the dam is taken as cost function of the optimization problem while constraints on the principal stress distribution and dam thickness are imposed. Shape of the boundary of the model is chosen as design variable. Variational formulation of the optimization problem, the material derivative idea of continuum mechanics, and an adjoint variable method are employed for the shape design sensitivity calculation. Then the gradient projection algorithm is utilized to obtain an optimum design iteratively. Research results fully demonstrate that the theory and procedure adopted are quite efficient and can be applicable to a wide class of practical elastic structural design problems.

In this paper, we present a method for obtaining a high-quality 3D depth. The advantages of active pattern projection and passive stereo matching are combined and a system is established. A diffractive optical element (DOE) is developed to project the active pattern. Cross guidance (CG) and auto guidance (AG) are proposed to perform the passive stereo matching in a stereo image in which a DOE pattern is projected. When obtaining the image, the CG emits a DOE pattern periodically and consecutively receives the original and pattern images. In addition, stereo matching is performed using these images. The AG projects the DOE pattern continuously. It conducts cost aggregation, and the image is restored through the process of removing the pattern from the pattern image. The ground truth is generated to estimate the optimal parameter among various stereo matching algorithms. Using the ground truth, the optimal parameter is estimated and the cost computation and aggregation algorithm are selected. The depth is calculated and bad-pixel errors make up 4.45% of the non-occlusion area.
