본 논문은 로봇 매니퓰레이터의 엔드 이펙터(end-effector)에 부착된 스테레오 카메라를 사용하여 움직이는 물체의 초기자세나 이동에 관한 정보가 미지인 3차원 물체의 파지(grasping)를 위해서, 로봇 매니퓰레이터의 자세(위치 및 방위)제어에 관한 새로운 비주얼 서보잉(visual servoing)을 제안한다. 로봇 매니퓰레이터의 현재의 자세를 목표자세에 잘 추적하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 카메라 자세에 대한 대상물체의 자세변화와 이미지상의 특정점 변화를 기술하는 관계식인 이미지 Jacobian을 미분변환을 이용하여 구했으며, 로봇 매니퓰레이터의 제어를 위해서는 간단한 PD제어기를 사용하였다. 마지막으로 다양한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안한 수법의 유효성을 확인했다.

In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised video object extraction algorithm for individual images or image sequences with low depth of field (DOF). Low DOF is a popular photographic technique which enables the representation of the photographer's intention by giving a clear focus only on an object of interest (OOI). We first describe a fast and efficient scheme for extracting OOIs from individual low-DOF images and then extend it to deal with image sequences with low DOF in the next part. The basic algorithm unfolds into three modules. In the first module, a higher-order statistics map, which represents the spatial distribution of the high-frequency components, is obtained from an input low-DOF image. The second module locates the block-based OOI for further processing. Using the block-based OOI, the final OOI is obtained with pixel-level accuracy. We also present an algorithm to extend the extraction scheme to image sequences with low DOF. The proposed system does not require any user assistance to determine the initial OOI. This is possible due to the use of low-DOF images. The experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm can serve as an effective tool for applications, such as 2D to 3D and photo-realistic video scene generation.

본 논문에서는 영상 볼륨 데이터의 내부 3차원 객체들을 표현하기 위하여 색상 전이함수와 불투명도 전이함수를 사용하였다. 대체로 전이함수에서 경계부분이 만나는 지점의 값 설정이 모호하므로 볼륨 렌더링의 대상이 되는 시각 객체를 구분하기 위하여 영상이 가지는 특징들과 각 객체들 사이의 분할방법으로 객체 경계의 특징값 추출에 역점을 두었다. 따라서 공간상의 영상 기울기 특징 값을 추출하였으며 GPU의 효율을 증대시켜서 다차원 전이함수를 생성하였다. 그러므로 이 함수들을 그래픽 하드웨어 기반에 3차원 질감사상의 객체 경계 가시화 방법을 수행함으로써 좋은 연구결과를 얻게 되었다.

In this paper, a novel type of a visual servoing method is proposed for eye-in-hand robots by employing a self-organizing fuzzy controller. For this is there defined a new Jacobian riot to be the function of a relative position of the object but to be a function of the only image features. Instead of obtaining an analytic form of the proposed Jacobian, a self-organizing fuzzy controller is then proposed to alleviate difficulties in real-time implementation. To show the validities, the proposed method is applied to a 2-dimensional visual servoing task.

The objective of this paper is to develop a finite element structural analysis program using VB(Visual Basic) which has been recently getting popular as development tools of application program for Windows. VB provides several functions to develop an application program easily by supporting event-driven programming method and graphic object as control data type. This system is an integrated processor including preprocessor, solver and postprocessor. Automatic mesh generation is available at preprocess stage, and graphic presentation of deformation and stress is also represented at postprocess one.

Object-orientation has been proposed as a promising software process innovation to improve software productivity and quality. It has not been understood clearly, however, what factors influences the diffusion of object-oriented technology in organizations. A research model was formulated and hypotheses were generated based on the literature of information technology implementation and software process innovation. To test the research hypotheses, a questionnaire survey was conducted. The results based on 121 responses from Korean companies revealed that project characteristics, use of external experts, and number of development projects are significantly related to the diffusion of object-oriented analysis and design and object-oriented programming. Innovation champion is positively related to the diffusion of object-oriented analysis and design, whereas it is not related to the diffusion of object-oriented programming language. Only project complexity was significantly related to the diffusion of visual programming language. On the other hand, organizational size was not significantly related to any object-oriented technology in this study.

In the conventional remote monitoring system, a user in front of a computer monitor can acquire only 2 dimensional visual information in a passive way. Thus, even thoght the user finds an interesting object from the video image, helshe can hardly acquire additional information on the object such as name. 311 shape, etc. In this paper, an active monitoring system that shows additional information on the selected object is proposed. The active remote monitoring system can calculate the 3D position of the object that is selected in the video images. Then, using the 3D position of the object, other information on the object can be retrieved from the database and shown on the screen. To calculate the 3D position of the object, 2 CCD cameras that can be tilted and panned using 3 stepping motors are used. The algorithm of 3D position calculation and the result of experiments are explained.

Based on object recognition technology, we present a new global localization method for robot navigation. For doing this, we model any indoor environment using the following visual cues with a stereo camera; view-based image features for object recognition and those 3D positions for object pose estimation. Also, we use the depth information at the horizontal centerline in image where optical axis passes through, which is similar to the data of the 2D laser range finder. Therefore, we can build a hybrid local node for a topological map that is composed of an indoor environment metric map and an object location map. Based on such modeling, we suggest a coarse-to-fine strategy for estimating the global localization of a mobile robot. The coarse pose is obtained by means of object recognition and SVD based least-squares fitting, and then its refined pose is estimated with a particle filtering algorithm. With real experiments, we show that the proposed method can be an effective vision- based global localization algorithm.

Object detection is a fundamental task for many high-level computer vision applications such as image retrieval, scene understanding, activity recognition, visual surveillance and many others. Although object detection is one of the most popular problems in computer vision and various algorithms have been proposed thus far, it is also notoriously difficult, mainly due to lack of proper models for object representation, that handle large variations of object structure and appearance. In this article, we review a branch of object detection algorithms based on Support Vector Machines (SVMs), a well-known max-margin technique to minimize classification error. We introduce a few variations of SVMs-Structural SVMs and Latent SVMs-and discuss their applications to object detection and localization.

This paper describes a shape-based object recognition algorithm using multiple distance images. For the images containing dense edge points and noise, previous Hausdorff distance (HD) measures yield a high ms error for object position and many false matchings for recognition. Extended version of HD measure considering edge position and orientation simultaneously is proposed for accurate matching. Multiple distance images are used to calculate proposed matching measure efficiently. Results are presented for visual images and infrared images.
