This paper proposes a high performance reversible watermarking (RW) scheme based on a novel compensation strategy. RW embeds data into a host image by modifying its pixel values slightly. It is found that certain modified pixels can be compensated to their original values during the proposed embedding procedure. The compensation effect in the RW scheme can improve the marked image quality significantly. By incorporating the pixel selection method, a higher quality image is obtained, which is verified by extensive experiments.

This paper proposes an image processing algorithm for detecting obstacles on road-lane using DLI(disparity of lane-related information) that is generated by stereo images acquired from dual cameras mounted on a moving vehicle. The DLI is a disparity that is acquired using single lane information from road lane detection. For the purpose to reduce processing time, we use small blocks obtained by edge-histogram based blocking logic. This algorithm detects moving objects such as preceding vehicles and obstacles. The proposed algorithm has been implemented in a personal computer with the road image data of a typical highway. We successfully performed experiments under a wide variety of road conditions without changing parameter values or adding human intervention. Experimental results also showed that the proposed DLI is quite successful.

The video device is used to gain lots of informations in indoor environment. The one of informations is the information to identify the moving object. The methods to identify the moving object are to recognize the face, the gait and to analyze the hue histogram of the clothes. The hue data is effective at the environment of multi-video. In this paper, we describe the existing research about to identify the moving object in the environment of multi-video and find its problems. finally, we present the enhanced methods to solve its problems. In the future, the method will be use for recognizing the location of object in ubiquitous home.

무손실 정보은닉은 추출과정에서 원본 영상으로의 완벽한 복원이 가능하도록 정보를 삽입하는 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 영상에서의 회복적인 무손실 정보은닉 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 히스토그램 수정을 Haar 웨이블릿 계수차분에 적용한 방법으로, 두 단계 삽입과정으로 나누어진다. 1차 삽입과정에서 웨이블릿 계수차분 히스토그램의 수정으로 인해 발생하는 왜곡은 2차 삽입과정을 통해 보상된다. 이러한 회복적인 특성은 실험을 통해 영상의 왜곡을 줄여주는 동시에 높은 삽입용량으로 나타난다.

Dense local image descriptors like SIFT are fruitful for capturing salient information about image, shown to be successful in various image-related tasks when formed in bag-of-words representation (i.e., histograms). In this paper we consider to utilize these dense local descriptors in the object tracking problem. A notable aspect of our tracker is that instead of adopting a point estimate for the target model, we account for uncertainty in data noise and model incompleteness by maintaining a distribution over plausible candidate models within the Bayesian framework. The target model is also updated adaptively by the principled Bayesian posterior inference, which admits a closed form within our Dirichlet prior modeling. With empirical evaluations on some video datasets, the proposed method is shown to yield more accurate tracking than baseline histogram-based trackers with the same types of features, often being superior to the appearance-based (visual) trackers.

Constrained Bayesian estimates overcome the over shrinkness toward the mean which usual Bayes and empirical Bayes estimates produce by matching first and second empirical moments; subsequently, a constrained Bayes estimate is recommended to use in case the research objective is to produce a histogram of the estimates considering the location and dispersion. The well-known squared error loss function exclusively emphasizes the precision of estimation and may lead to biased estimators. Thus, the balanced loss function is suggested to reflect both goodness of fit and precision of estimation. In insurance pricing, the accurate location estimates of risk and also dispersion estimates of each risk group should be considered under proper loss function. In this paper, by applying these two ideas, the benefit of the constrained Bayes estimates and balanced loss function will be discussed; in addition, application effectiveness will be proved through an analysis of real insurance accident data.

히스토그램은 원본 데이타를 효과적으로 요약하는 기법중의 하나 이며, 선택도 측정과 근사 질의 처리 등에 널리 사용되고 있다. 기존의 히스토그램 구축 알고리즘들은 하나의 값으로 표현되는 점 데이타에 대하여 적용 가능한 알고리즘 이었다. 그러나 일상생활에서는 하루 동안의 온도, 주식 가격과 같은 구간 데이타들도 점 데이타만큼 흔하게 접할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 Max 에러에 대한 히스토그램 구축 알고리을 구간 데이터에 대하여 확장한다. 합성 데이타를 사용한 실험을 통하여 기존의 점 데이타에 대한 히스토그램을 초보적으로 확장하는 방법보다 본 논문에서 제시된 알고리즘의 성능이 좋다는 것을 보였다.

Moving object extraction is one of key research topics for various video services. In this study, a new moving object extraction algorithm is introduced to extract objects using block motion vectors in video data. To do this, 1) a maximum a posteriori probability and Gibbs random field are used to obtain real block motion vectors,2) a 2-D histogram technique is used to determine a global motion, 3) additionally, a block segmentation is fellowed. In the computer simulation results, the proposed technique shows a good performance.

This study was intended to develop more reliable fruit sorting algorithm regardless of the feeding positions of fruits by using the neural network in which various information could be included as input data. Specific objectives of this study were to select proper input units in the neural network by investigating the features of input image, to analyze the sorting accuracy of the algorithm depending on the feeding positions of Fuji apple and to evaluate the performance of the algorithm for practical usage. the average value in color grading accuracy was 90%. Based on the computing time required for color grading, the maximum sorting capacity was estimated to approximately 10, 800 apples per hours. Finally, it is concluded that the neuro-net based color sorting algorithm developed in this study has feasibility for practical usage.

본 논문에서는 특이값 분해(Singular Value Decomposition)을 이용하여 이미지의 주파수 영역 내에 정보를 은닉하는 방법을 제시한다. 이미지를 주파수 영역으로 변환하기 위하여 블록 단위로 이산 코사인 변환(Discrete Cosine Transform)을 수행한다. 이후 인접한 네 블록의 DC 값들로 구성된 행렬의 특이값을 은닉하고자 하는 정보에 따라 변환한다. 원래의 DC 값은 정보에 따라 변환된 DC 값으로 대체되고 역 이산 코사인 변환(Inverse Discrete Cosine Transform)을 수행하여 정보가 은닉된 이미지를 얻는다. 제안하는 알고리즘의 성능을 분석하기 위해 JPEG(Joint Photographic Coding Experts Group), 선명화(Sharpening), 히스토그램 등화(Histogram Equalization)와 같이 다양한 이미지 변화를 거친 후, 은닉된 정보의 신뢰도를 비교한다.
