A two-dimensional numerical method for inviscid two-fluid flows with evolution of density interface is developed, and an initially stationary two-dimensional fluid sheet surrounded by another fluid is studied. The Interface between two fluids is modeled as a vertex sheet, and the flow field u÷th the evolution of interface is solved by using vortex-in-cell/front-tracking method. The edge of the sheet Is pulled back into the sheet due to surface tension and a blob is formed at the edge. This blob and fluid sheet are connected by a thin neck. In the inviscid limit, such process of the blob and neck formation is examined in detail and their kinematic characteristics are summarized with dimensionless parameters. The edge recedes at $V=1.06({\sigma}/{\rho}h)^{0.5}$ and the capillary wave Propagating into the fluid sheet must be considered for bettor understanding of the edge receding.

Object tracking is a common vision task to detect and trace objects between consecutive frames. It is also important for a variety of applications such as surveillance, video based traffic monitoring system, and so on. An efficient moving vehicle clustering and tracking algorithm suitable for traffic monitoring system is proposed in this paper. First, automatic background extraction method is used to get a reliable background as a reference. The moving blob(object) is then separated from the background by mean shift method. Second, the scale invariant feature based method extracts the salient features from the clustered foreground blob. It is robust to change the illumination, scale, and affine shape. The simulation results on various road situations demonstrate good performance achieved by proposed method.

This paper proposes a low-cost method for counting people based on blob detection and blob tracking. Here background subtraction is used to detected blob and then the blob is classified with its width and height to specify that the blob is a person. In this system we first define the area of entry and exit point in the video frame. The counting of people starts when midpoint of the people blob crosses the defined point. Finally, total number of people entry and exit from the place is displayed. Experiment result of this proposed system has high accuracy in real-time performance.

영상 검지기를 통한 차량 탐지 방법은 날씨와 같은 환경에 민감하게 반응하여 차량의 미탐지 및 오탐지가 발생하게 된다. 이를 해결하기 위해 다양한 일기조건하에서 차량 추적 방법에 대해 제안한다. 다양한 일기 조건하에서의 차량 추적은 눈, 비, 안개 환경에서 각 날씨의 특징을 분석, 반영하여 차량을 탐지하고 추적한다. 눈이 내리는 환경에서는 눈이 카메라 가까이에서 차량 blob으로 잘못 탐지되는 blob을 제거하기 위해 카메라와의 거리에 따른 실제 크기를 구하는 size filtering 방법을 사용한다. 비, 안개 환경에서는 흐릿해진 영상 때문에 차량이 교통신호등에 의해 차량 정체시 여러 차량이 하나의 blob으로 탐지되는 문제점을 해결하기 위해 이전 영상에서의 차량 위치 정보를 이용한 재 blob화 방법을 사용한다.

In detection of moving objects from video sequences, an essential process for intelligent visual surveillance, the cast shadows accompanying moving objects are different from background so that they may be easily extracted as foreground object blobs, which causes errors in localization, segmentation, tracking and classification of objects. Most of the previous research results about moving cast shadow detection and removal usually utilize color information about objects and scenes. In this paper, we proposes a novel cast shadow removal method of moving objects in gray level video data for visual surveillance application. The proposed method utilizes observations about edge patterns in the shadow region in the current frame and the corresponding region in the background scene, and applies Laplacian edge detector to the blob regions in the current frame and the corresponding regions in the background scene. Then, the product of the outcomes of application determines moving object blob pixels from the blob pixels in the foreground mask. The minimal rectangle regions containing all blob pixles classified as moving object pixels are extracted. The proposed method is simple but turns out practically very effective for Adative Gaussian Mixture Model-based object detection of intelligent visual surveillance applications, which is verified through experiments.

비디오에서의 물체 추적은 컴퓨터비젼(computer vision)의 주요 연구 분야로 지능형 로봇, 무인 감시 체제 등의 영역의 핵심 기술로 여겨지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 다중물체추적을 통해 카메라로 부터 입력된 동영상에서 특정 장소를 지나가는 사람들을 추적함으로서, 그 지역에서의 인구의 이동 패턴을 추출하고 자 한다. 물체 추적은 블롭 추적(blob tracking) 방식을 이용하며, 이를 위해 정확한 전경물체 추출, 추출된 이미지 블롭(blob)과 기존 트랙과의 연결, 새로운 물체(사람)의 등장과 퇴장등의 작업을 수행한다. 추적된 물체들이 궤적을 통해, 시간의 변화에 따른 그 지역에서의 인구의 밀도, 주 이동 경로, 방향 등의 변화를 추출한다. 이러한 통계치는 해당 지역의 개발 정책 수립 및 시장성 조사를 위한 2차 데이타로 활용할 수 있다.

In this paper particle filter is used as an underlying algorithm to track multiple objects, which are soccer players. Multi-object tracking becomes difficult when two or more players get close to and overlap each other because particles of the filters tend to move to a region of higher posterior probability. To resolve this problem, a blob assignation algorithm which identifies the separated image blobs after occlusion, based on the predicted states according to the dynamic model is suggested. This method performed well on the sequences under general camera work.

In the field of image processing to track the fingertip much research has been done. The most common way to calculate the fingertip first, to extract color information. Then, it uses Blob Coloring algorithms which are expressed in blob functions the skin contour and calculates. The algorithm from contour decides the highest location with the fingertip. But this method when measuring it location from the finger condition which bents is not the actual fingertip and has the problem which detects the location which goes wrong. This paper proposes the color space correction algorithm to tracks the fingertip which bents. The method which proposes when tracking the fingertip from the finger condition which bents solves the problem which measures the location which goes wrong. Aim of this paper in compliance with the propensity of the users forecasts a problem in advance and corrects with improvement at the time of height boil an efficiency. Ultimately, this paper suggests empirical application to verify the adequacy and the validity with the proposed method. Accordingly, the satisfaction and the quality of services will be improved the image recognition.

In this paper, we propose a method that can detect and trace the end point of real - time reinforcement steel to various environmental conditions of industrial field by using Median flow and Depth information. We proposed a method to derive two steel end points by using Median filter, Binarization, Morphology, and Blob algorithm on image depth information. The coordinates of the final position were determined by comparing the coordinates of the reinforcement steel endpoints detected in the Depth image and the position tracking coordinates of the reinforcement steel using Median Flow. As a result, when the existing Median Flow method was used, the success rate of the final position determination of reinforcement steel of 75% was increased to 95% when the Depth of reinforcement steel was used.
