On mobile devices, image sequences are widely used for multimedia applications such as computer vision, video enhancement, and augmented reality. However, the real-time processing of mobile devices is still a challenge because of constraints and demands for higher resolution images. Recently, heterogeneous computing methods that utilize both a central processing unit (CPU) and a graphics processing unit (GPU) have been researched to accelerate the image sequence processing. This paper deals with various optimizing techniques such as parallel processing by the CPU and GPU, distributed processing on the CPU, frame buffer object, and double buffering for parallel and/or distributed tasks. Using the optimizing techniques both individually and combined, several heterogeneous computing structures were implemented and their effectiveness were analyzed. The experimental results show that the heterogeneous computing facilitates executions up to 3.5 times faster than CPU-only processing.

The digital video cassette recorder(DVCR) is considered as next generation VCR due to its performance breakthrough in various aspects, such as digital recording and various digital image processing techniques. The purpose of our study is to understand the standardized specifications of the DVCR system, evaluate the performance of the system, and improve the quality of the reconstructed DVCR image. More specifically, in order to enhance the DVCR Image we consider a series of discrete cosine transform(DCT), quantization, inverse DCT, and Inverse quantization as a degradation process of the Imaging system, and propose a fast adaptive image restoration algorithm for reducing blocking artifacts.

본 논문에서는 러닝 콘텐츠의 생산성을 높이기 위해 초보자도 쉽게 사용 할 수 있는 UCC동영상 저작도구의 개선방안을 제시한다. 분석 방법으로 첫째, 초보자들이 사용하는 UCC동영상 저작도구와 고급동영상 저작 도구를 사용자 인터페이스 측면, 기능적 측면으로 분석 요소를 한정하여 분석하고, 러닝콘텐츠의 특성인 학습활동을 목적으로 한 학습 관련자원의 활용 정도를 UCC동영상 저작도구와 러닝저작도구를 분석 대상으로 하여 비교 분석 하였다. 이 두 분석결과를 종합하여 인터페이스 측면, 기능적 측면에서 개선방안을 제시 하였다. 인터페이스 측면에서는 복합타임라인을 통해 타임라인, 스토리보드, 블록기능을 하나의 메뉴로 구성하여 러닝콘텐츠 제작 시 혼동을 줄여 주며 기능적 측면에서는 자동 스토리보드 블록, 기능 편집, 클릭제작 3가지의 개선사항을 도출하여 초보자도 쉽게 러닝 콘텐츠를 제작할 수 있도록 제안하였다. UCC동영상 저작도구의 사용성 개선을 바탕으로 향후 UCC동영상 중심의 러닝콘텐츠가 활성화 될 것으로 기대한다.

The paper describes synchronization schemes for scalable video coding signals over the DVB-S2 network. The MPEG-4 SVC signals include a base layer signal and an enhancement layer signal. They are packetized into MPEG-2 transport streams and transmitted on separate RF channels through the DVB-S2 system. The DVB-S2 receiver is required to synchronize each layer signal together to recover the full pictures. Some new schemes to synchronize two. layered SVC signals in MPEG-4 SVC decoder are proposed and analyzed.

Eastman Kodak Co. has announced the concept of photo CD System in September, 1990 With Photo CD System technology, Kodak Co. Furnishes a convinent way to view, use and store photographic images. The heart of this system is a format provides progressively higher levels of image quality to meet the demands of NTSC, PAL and HDTV video displays as well as hard copy output. Also, image professionals are instrested in the capability of Photo CD, such as a way to store image at low cost in a high-resolution digital format that can be played back on different computer platforms. Many editors wish to use Photo CD images in the printing and publishing industry. However, Photo CD images were not processed detail enhancement and some others to use in the lithographic offset printing. Therefore, in this paper discribes a method to improve the sharpness of Photo CD images.

In this paper, we present a tracking accuracy enhancement method by compensating the time delay of the video tracker in an EOTS. The proposed method has two functional parts, which can cope with the time delay of LOS and maneuvering target informations by Smith predictor and Kalman filter. So it can dramatically reduce the tracking error over conventional PI control or Smith predictor control. To verify the proposed method, various and extensive simulation and experimental results are given.

The image noise improvement algorithm proposed in this paper extracts the boundary line by using the window of the binarized image to detect the gesture motion. Boundary line blurring is prevented by improving Gaussian noise generated during video output. To improve gesture recognition in low-light environments, an image noise enhancement algorithm has been designed to provide an output image close to the base image. Analyzing the experimental results, we found almost 10% improvement in the results compared to the results of the existing Median filter.

The rate control is very important to solve the difficulties arising from bit-rate on transmission through channel and to improve video quality. It is very important to point out that the amount of output bit obtained the encoding process using rate controller brings many problems on the transmission of channels and furthermore output bitstream decoded affects directly on the visual quality of displayed subject. In this paper, the effective rate control algorithm by rate-distortion modeling using MPEG-4 encoder is proposed. The proposed rate control has applied different weighting by VOP prediction type and even in the same VOP prediction type, the predicted reference allocates more bit. Through these bit allocation the minimization of distortion can be achieved preventing propagation of quantization error The amount of saved bitstream obtained by the proposed algorithm in this thesis is allocated to I-VOP using region of interest(ROI) selective enhancement on the next GOV encoding process and this process brought the improvement of visual quality.
