Abnormal situation caused by aggressive behavior of pigs adversely affects the growth of pigs, and comes with an economic loss in intensive pigsties. Therefore, IT-based video surveillance system is needed to monitor the abnormal situations in pigsty continuously in order to minimize the economic demage. Recently, some advances have been made in pig monitoring; however, detecting each pig is still challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a new color image-based monitoring system for the detection of the individual pig using a fast region-based convolution neural network with consideration of detecting touching pigs in a crowed pigsty. The experimental results with the color images obtained from a pig farm located in Sejong city illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.

In this paper, we present a face detection algorithm which uses the features of color and Geometry of faces and hairs appeared in images. after candidate area detection using color features, background areas are removed by the deviation of luminance in each of candidate areas. And then, final face area is detected using feature of geometry between face and hair. Performance of the presented algorithm is evaluated by detection rate test. The test result showed high detection rate.

Autonomous farm operation needs to be developed for safety, labor shortage problem, health etc. In this research, an autonomous tractor for tillage was investigated using machine vision and a fuzzy logic controller(FLC). Tractor heading and offset were determined by image processing and a geomagnetic sensor. The FLC took the tractor heading and offset as inputs and generated the steering angle for tractor guidance as output. A color CCD camera was used fro the image processing . The heading and offset were obtained using Hough transform of the G-value color images. 15 fuzzy rules were used for inferencing the tractor steering angle. The tractor was tested in the file and it was proved that the tillage operation could be done autonomously within 20 cm deviation with the machine vision and the FLC.

High resolution field emission dispplay(FED) devices of 5 inch diagonal in size are fully developped for the applications of near-future flat ppanel dispplays. Under the unique gate-switching drive scheme electron trajectory pprofiles are simulated and tested by considering leakage effects of each ppixel. Uniquely-pprinted sppacer with high asppect ratio are fabricated on real ITO glass for high vacuum ppackaging. In addition new gas aging scheme of stabilizing field emitting array are extensively investigated during the sealing and exhausting pprocess in order to pprevent oxidation effects on the micro tipp. Finally fulll color images of 64 gray scale will be demonstrated.

The rapid expansion of the Internet in the past few years has rapidly increased the availability of digital data such as audio, images and videos to the public. Therefore, The need for copyright protect of digital data are increasing in the internet. In this paper, Color image(RGB model) is transformed into LUV model, it includes the characteristics of, human vision and then the U or V component is transformed into 3-level wavelet transform. we can insert watermark to several objects of an image separately The experimental results showed that the proposed watermarking algorithm was better than to other RGB watermarking algorithm.

This paper presents a two-stage approach to detect pedestrians in video sequences taken from a moving vehicle. The first stage is a preprocessing step, in which potential pedestrians are hypothesized. During the preprocessing step, a difference image is constructed using a global motion estimation, vertical and horizontal edge maps are extracted, and the color difference between the road and pedestrians are determined to create candidate regions where pedestrians may be present. The candidate regions are refined further using the vertical edge symmetry features of the pedestrians' legs. In the next stage, each hypothesis is verified using the integral channel features and an AdaBoost classifier. In this stage, a decision is made as to whether or not each candidate region contains a pedestrian. The proposed algorithm was tested on a range of dataset images and showed good performance.

Detecting marker coordinates is important in augmented reality system based on tag. If a marker is not detected, objects can't be augmented. In this paper, we propose a noise reduction method for augmented reality. Using a blue color space to HIS color transformation was performed on the binary. Erosion operator and the dilation operator of the binary images were performed. Experimental results show that proposed method produces a tag image recognizable in various light environments. And using the area of the rectangle, the labeling could be detected through the tag. Tag recognition rate is improved by removing noise.

The memory compression algorithm CCC-LCP (color-count-controlled local color palette) reduces flicker in the liquid crystal display (LCD) overdrive. Its compression ratio is 1:5.4 for 10-bit images, with a 33 dB PSNR peak signal-to-noise ratio and with five times flicker reduction compared with the block truncation coding. The authors' two-alternative forced choice subjective tests proposed two new soundness properties, the 'CMP harmlessness' and 'OD non-lost (or OD liveliness)', to clarify the functional interaction between the overdrive functionality OD and the compression functionality CMP. The tests verified that CCC-LCP is practically applicable (at a 1.2H viewing distance threshold) for 42" 37-ppi WXGA TVs.

This study demonstrates the utilization of light microscopy and Fast Fourier Transform-Peak Finding (FPF) method for microfibril angle (MFA) measurement from unstained sections of red pine (Pinus densiflora). To obtain an image with optimal contrast and resolution for MFA measurement, effects of numerical aperture (NA) of condenser lens and color filters were investigated. About 60% of NA of the maximum condenser NA produced an image with optimal contrast, but a color filter with short wavelength range (DAPI) created images with improved resolution. Manual angle measurement and the FPF method were applied to the image with optimal contrast for MFA measurement. The experimental results from the FPF method were considered to be more repeatable and less subjective than those from the manual angle measurement.
