A Hoffman 3D Brain Phantom was used to evaluate two PET/CT scanners, BIO_40 and D_690, according to the radiation dose of CT (low, medium and high) at a fixed kilo-voltage-peak (kVp) with the tube current(mA) varied in 17~20 stages(Bio_40 PET/CT scanner: the tube voltage was fixed to 120 kVp, the effective tube current(mAs) was increased from 33 mAs to 190 mAs in 10 mAs increments, D_690 PET/CT scanner: the tube voltage was fixed to 140 kVp, tube current(mA) was increased from 10 mAs to 200 mAs in 10 mAs increments). After obtaining the PET image, an attenuation correction was conducted based on the attenuation map, which led to an analysis of the difference in the image. First, the ratio of white to gray matter for each scanner was examined by comparing the coefficient of variation (CV) depending on the average ratio. In addition, a blind test was carried out to evaluate the image. According to the study results, the BIO_40 and D_690 scanners showed a <1% change in CV value due to the tube current conversion. The change in the coefficients of white and gray matter showed that the Z value was negative for both scanners, indicating that the coefficient of gray matter was higher than that of white matter. Moreover, no difference was observed when the images were compared in a blind test.

In this paper, we propose an edge detection scheme for noisy images based on the co-occurrence matrix. In the proposed scheme based on the step edge model, the gray level information is simply converted into a bit-map, i.e., the uniform and boundary regions of an image are transformed into a binary pattern by using the local mean. In this binary bit-map pattern, 0 and 1 densely distributed near the boundary region while they are randomly distributed in the uniform region. To detect the boundary region, the co-occurrence matrix on the bit-map is introduced. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is shown via a quantitative performance comparison to the conventional edge detection methods and the simulation results for noisy images are also presented.

Conventional noise reduction filtering schemes realize limited improvements of the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) in the low-level noisy images. The flatness degree and the edge information are effectively used to estimate the noise volume. We propose a noise estimator for reducing noise in the AWGN (additive white gaussian noise) corrupted images using three intermediate image maps (FGM(flatness gray map), FIM(flatness index map), NEM(noise estimate map)). The proposed noise estimator is fed into the conventional noise reduction filters as a pre-processor. The performance of noise reduction is tested in the various AWGN corrupted images.

전광 그레이코드(gray code) 이진코드(binary code) 변환기를 상용화 전산모사 프로그램(VPI)을 이용하여 처음으로 구현하였다. 전자회로 디자인 방법을 상호 이득변조를 이용한 전광 논리회로에 적합하도록 변형하여, 이상적이지 않은 전광 논리게이트에 의한 신호 왜곡이 최소화 되도록 하였다. 2.5 Gbps의 20 dB 소광비를 가지는 입력 신호에 대해, 신호재생기 없이 가장 많이 왜곡된 출력 신호에 (최하위 비트-LSB) 대해 약 4 이상의 Q값을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 그레이 코드 이진코드 변환기를 디자인하면서, 이단 단순화 방법을 (two-level simplification method) 변형하여, 그레이코드 이진코드 변환기뿐 아니라 일반적인 전광 회로에 적용할 할 수 있는 일반적 방법을(일단 단순화 방법: one-level simplification method) 얻을 수 있었다.

Let $R_{u{^2},v^2,w^2,p}$ be a finite non chain ring ${\mathbb{F}}_p[u,v,w]{\langle}u^2,\;v^2,\;w^2,\;uv-vu,\;vw-wv,\;uw-wu{\rangle}$, where p is a prime number. This ring is a part of family of Frobenius rings. In this paper, we explore the structures of cyclic codes over the ring $R_{u{^2},v^2,w^2,p}$ of arbitrary length. We obtain a unique set of generators for these codes and also characterize free cyclic codes. We show that Gray images of cyclic codes are 8-quasicyclic binary linear codes of length 8n over ${\mathbb{F}}_p$. We also determine the rank and the Hamming distance for these codes. At last, we have given some examples.

본 논문에서는 3D-Video에서 가상시점 영상을 생성하는데 필요한 깊이정보 맵의 효율적인 부호화 방법을 제안한다. 가상시점 영상은 실사 영상의 깊이정보 맵을 이용한 시점보간(View Interpolation) 방법으로 생성된다. 일반적으로 깊이정보 맵의 부호화에는 H.264 등의 자연영상에 대한 동영상 부호화 방법을 그대로 적용하고 있는데, 이러한 부호화 방법은 깊이정보 맵의 특성을 고려하지 않은 방법이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 깊이정보 맵의 영상특성을 고려하여, 맵 정보를 그레이 코드로 변환한 후 비트평면 단위로 부호화하는 방법과, H.264 부호화 방법을 블록단위로 적응적으로 선택하여 부호화하는 방법을 제안하였다. 실험결과로서 제안하는 방법의 성능은 H.264 부호화 방법에 비하여, BD-PSNR이 평균 0.5dB 향상되고, BD-rate는 평균 7.43% 감소되어 부호화효율이 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 복원된 깊이정보 맵을 이용하여 생성된 가상시점 영상 간의 비교에서 제안하는 방법이 H.264 부호화 방법에 비해 주관적 화질이 크게 향상된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Painting, as an artistic creation with aesthetic characteristics, is inseparable from "shape". "Modeling" is a subjective way of expressing objects, and "black shape" is not only a way of expression, but also a way of composition. "Black shape" is a way of expressing the overall picture of the creator, and "black shape" extracted from the pattern analysis of black and white gray structure is a powerful means to deeply explore the emotions and thoughts of the painter. How to create the expression of subjective intention in the creation of artificial figure painting and to explore the beauty of picture form and the presentation of formal language in multiple dimensions is always sought by painters. Tang Dynasty political stability, economic and cultural development of unprecedented prosperity, "Toujian Diu" as a representative painting of Tang Dynasty, the figure is plump and realistic, colorful but elegant. It not only represents the aesthetic taste of the Tang Dynasty, but also reflects the overall style of the Tang Dynasty's artificial figure painting. The aim of this paper is to explore the value of "black shape" in "Toughen Diagram" and analyze its multi-component form in depth.

In this paper, we present a robust region segmentation method based on the watershed transformation of a pseudo-distance map (PDM). A usual approach for the segmentation of a gray-scale image with the watershed algorithm is to apply it to a gradient magnitude image or the Euclidean distance map (EDM) of an edge image. However, it is well known that this approach suffers from the oversegmentation of the given image due to noisy gradients or spurious edges caused by a thresholding operation. In this paper we show thor applying the watershed algorithm to the EDM, which is a regularized version of the EDM and is directly computed form the edgestrength function (ESF) of the input image, significantly reduces the oversegmentation, and the final segmentation results obtained by a simple region-merging process are more reliable and less noisy than those of the gradient-or EDM-based methods. We also propose a simple and efficient region-merging criterion considering both boundary strengths and inner intensities of regions to be merged. The robustness of our method is proven by testing it with a variety of synthetic and real images.

Urban forests provide great ecosystem services to population in metropolitan areas even though they occupy little green space in a huge gray landscape. Unfortunately, urbanization inherently results in threatening the green infrastructure, and the recent urbanization trends drew great attention of scientists and policy makers on how to preserve or restore green infrastructure in metropolitan area. For this reason, mapping the spatial distribution of the green infrastructure is important in urban environments since the resulting map helps us identify hot green spots and set up long term plan on how to preserve or restore green infrastructure in urban environments. As a preliminary step for mapping green infrastructure utilizing multi-source remote sensing data in urban environments, the objective of this study is to map vegetation volume by fusing LiDAR and multispectral data in urban environments. Multispectral imageries are used to identify the two dimensional distribution of green infrastructure, while LiDAR data are utilized to characterize the vertical structure of the identified green structure. Vegetation volume was calculated over the metropolitan Chicago city area, and the vegetation volume was summarized over 16 NLCD classes. The experimental results indicated that vegetation volume varies greatly even in the same land cover class, and traditional land cover map based above ground biomass estimation approach may introduce bias in the estimation results.
