Window image is displayed through a monitor screen when we execute the application programs on the computer. This includes webpage, video player and a number of applications. The webpage delivers a variety of information by various types in comparison with other application. Unlike a natural image captured from a camera, the window image like a webpage includes diverse components such as text, logo, icon, subimage and so on. Each component delivers various types of information to users. However, the components with different characteristic need to be divided locally, because text and image are served by various type. In this paper, we divide window images into many sub blocks, and classify each divided region into background, text and subimage. The detected subimages can be applied into 2D-to-3D conversion, image retrieval, image browsing and so forth. There are many subimage classification methods. In this paper, we utilize AdaBoost for verifying that the machine learning-based algorithm can be efficient for subimage detection. In the experiment, we showed that the subimage detection ratio is 93.4 % and false alarm is 13 %.

This paper suggests the method to shorten the search area by using edge detection and subimage partition. For the purpose reduce encoding time, The Domain areas are reduced 1/64 by partitioning original image to subimage, and classified them into edge area and shade area so that detect only the area in the same class. for achieving an encoding with good fidelity, tried to differ the search method as the threshold value of edge which is included in subimage, and compared the compression rate and fidelity when set the size of range block as $4{\times}4$ and $8{\times}8$.

In this paper we detect edges using stutistical methods of the change-point problem. For this, we perform the hypothesis testing for differences in gray levels to see whether any $n\timesn$ subimage contains edge segments. The proposed method based on the twosample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is introduced and the likelihood ratio test and the \VolfeSchechtman test for change-point problem arc also applied for edge detection. \Ve perform the experimental study to assess the performance of these methods in both noisy and uncontaminated sample noises.

In this paper, we realize the panoramic infrared warning system to detect the small threaten object and propose the infrared image enhancement method to improve the warning ability of this system. This system composes of the sense head unit, the signal processing unit, and so on. In the proposed system, the sense head unit acquires the panoramic IR image with 360 degree field of view(FOV) by rotating the thermal sensor. The signal processing unit divides panoramic image into four sub-images with 90 degree FOV and computes the adaptive plateau value by using statistical characteristics of each subimage. Then the histogram equalization is performed for each subimage by using the adaptive plateau value. We realize the signal Processing unit by using the DSP and FPGA to perform the proposed method in real time. Experimental results show that the proposed method has better discrimination and lower false alarm rate than the conventional methods in this warning system.

This paper proposes an improved image steganalysis scheme to raise the detection rate of stego images out of cover images. To improve the detection rate of stego image in the steganalysis, tiny variation caused by data hiding should be amplified. For this, we extract feature vectors of cover image and stego image by two steps. First, we separate image into upper 4 bit subimage and lower 4 bit subimage. As a result, stego noise is expanded more than two times. We decompose separated subimages into twelve subbands by applying 3-level Haar wavelet transform and calculate co-occurrence probabilities of two different subbands in the same scale. Since co-occurrence probability of the two wavelet subbands is affected by data hiding, it can be used as a feature to differentiate cover images and stego images. The extracted feature vectors are used as the input to the multilayer perceptron(MLP) classifier to distinguish between cover and stego images. We test the performance of the proposed scheme over various embedding rates by the LSB, S-tool, COX's SS, and F5 embedding method. The proposed scheme outperforms the previous schemes in detection rate to existence of hidden message as well as exactness of discrimination.
