In this paper, an image detection technique is proposed to extract image features in a mobile terminal environment. To detect objects, the HSI color model of the image is used. The object's corner points are detected using the Harris corner detection method. Finally we detect the object of interest using region growing The experiment results show that the proposed method improves detection performance and reduces the amount of computation.

Interactive Typography is a process where a user communicates by interacting with text and a moving factor. This research covers interactive typography using real-time response to a user's gesture. In order to form a language-independent system, preprocessing of entered text data presents image data. This preprocessing is followed by recognizing the image data and the setting interaction points. This is done using computer vision technology such as the Harris corner detector and contour detection. User interaction is achieved using skeleton information tracked by a depth camera. By synchronizing the user's skeleton information acquired by Kinect (a depth camera,) and the typography components (interaction points), all user gestures are linked with the typography in real time. An experiment was conducted, in both English and Korean, where users showed an 81% satisfaction level using an interactive typography system where text components showed discrete movements in accordance with the users' gestures. Through this experiment, it was possible to ascertain that sensibility varied depending on the size and the speed of the text and interactive alteration. The results show that interactive typography can potentially be an accurate communication tool, and not merely a uniform text transmission system.

최근 모바일 장치의 영상 데이터 처리 능력 확대와 더불어 사용자가 요구하는 다양한 영상 데이터의 효율적인 인식 기술 연구가 요구되어지고 있다. 모바일 환경은 고성능 PC 환경과 달리 저사양의 CPU와 메모리를 탑재하고 있어, 영상에서 원하는 객체를 인식하기 위한 기존의 방법론으로는 사용자 요구를 실시간으로 충족하기 어려운 부분이 존재한다. 이에 모바일 환경에 맞는 객체 인식 방법론의 개발이 요구된다. 모바일 환경에서 실시간으로 객체 인식을 하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 객체 코너 정보를 이용한 Harris corner detector[1]로부터 객체의 특징점을 추출하고, 이를 바탕으로 하여 영상내의 객체 정보 인식 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법에 의해, 입력 영상에서 객체의 코너 정보를 빠르게 추출, 기존 특징점과의 비교를 통하여 영상 내부의 객체 인식을 진행한다. 일반적으로, 회전된 특징점 객체의 정보는 객체의 회전 정도에 따라 코너 픽셀 색상 정보의 변화가 발생하게 된다. 특징점의 색상값은 객체의 회전 정도에 영향을 받아 주변의 픽셀값과 혼합되는 특성이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 회전 변경된 픽셀 색상값의 영향을 분석하여, 회전된 객체의 특징점 추출 및 객체 검출에 반영하도록 하여, 영상 내부의 회전된 객체 검출의 수행에 효과적으로 이용될 수 있도록 한다. 특징점의 코너 정보를 이용하여 객체를 인식하는 것은, 객체의 인식률은 다소 감소하더라도 모바일 환경에서 계산량의 감소를 통한 실시간 활용이 가능하도록 한다. 이러한 특성은 저성능 CPU와 메모리에서도 회전된 객체의 인식을 수행할 수 있게 하는데 상당히 효과적이다.

This paper addresses the way to compose paronamic images from images taken the same objects. With the spread of digital camera, the panoramic image has been studied to generate with its interest. In this paper, we propose a panoramic image generation method using scaling and rotation invariant features. First, feature points are extracted from input images and matched with a RANSAC algorithm. Then, after the perspective model is estimated, the input image is registered with this model. Since the SURF feature extraction algorithm is adapted, the proposed method is robust against geometric distortions such as scaling and rotation. Also, the improvement of computational cost is achieved. In the experiment, the SURF feature in the proposed method is compared with features from Harris corner detector or the SIFT algorithm. The proposed method is tested by generating panoramic images using $640{\times}480$ images. Results show that it takes 0.4 second in average for computation and is more efficient than other schemes.

This paper proposes a Haar Wavelet Feature Detector (HWFD) based on the Haar wavelet transform and average box filter. By decomposing the original image using the Haar wavelet transform, the proposed detector obtains the variance information of the image, making it possible to extract more distinctive features from the original image. For detection of interest points that represent the regions whose variance is the highest among their neighbor regions, we apply the average box filter to evaluate the local variance information and use the integral image technique for fast computation. Due to utilization of the Haar wavelet transform and the average box filter, the proposed detector is robust to illumination change, scale change, and rotation of the image. Experimental results show that even though the proposed method detects fewer interest points, it achieves higher repeatability, higher efficiency and higher matching accuracy compared with the DoG detector and Harris corner detector.

Harris corner detector is commonly used to detect feature points for recognizing 2-D or 3-D objects. However, the feature points calculated from both of query and target objects need to be same positions to guarantee accurate recognitions. In order to check the positions of calculated feature points, we generate a Huffman tree which is based on adjacent feature values as inputs. However, the structures of two Huffman trees will be same as long as both of a query and targets have same feature values no matter how different their positions are. In this paper, we sort feature values and calculate the Euclidean distances of coordinates between two adjacent feature values. The Huffman Tree is generated with these Euclidean distances. As a result, the information of point locations can be included in the generated Huffman tree. This is the main strategy for accurate recognitions. We call this system as the HRM(Hybrid Retrieval Machine). This system works very well even when artificial random noises are added to original data. HRM can be used to recognize biological data such as proteins, and it will curtail the costs which are required to biological experiments.

Protein molecules are combined with another ones which have similar shapes at pocket positions. The pocket positions can be good references to describe the shapes of protein molecules. Harris corner detector is commonly used to detect feature points of 2 or 3D objects. Feature points can be found on the pocket areas and the points which have high derivatives. Generally speaking, the densities of feature points are relatively high at pocket areas because the shapes of pockets are concave. The pocket areas can be decided by the subdivision of voxel cubes which include feature points. The Euclidean distances between feature points and the central coordinate of the decided pocket area are calculated and sorted. The graph of sorted distances describes the shape of a protein molecule and the distribution of feature points. Therefore, it can be used to classify protein molecules by their shapes. Even though the shapes of protein molecules have been distorted with noises, they can be recognized with the accuracy more than 95 %. The accurate shape recognition provides the information to predict the binding properties of protein molecules.

Generally, moving object tracking used Lucas-Kanade feature tracking method which is strong in movement, rotation and size. But this method is very weak of occlusion by background or another object and so on. In this case, this method tracks backgrounds or another objects instead a moving object, or a tracking is finished. In order to solve this problem, we proposes Lucas-Kanade feature tracking method which introduce a destimation function and prediction function.
