In this paper we implement moving picture transfer system using bluetooth Development Kit (DK). To reduce the size of the image data, we use M-JPEG compression. We use bluetooth Synchronous Connection-Oriented (SCO) link to transfer voice data. Server receive image data from camera and compress the image data in M-JPEG format, and then transmit the image data to client using bluetooth Asynchronous connection-less (ACL) link. Client receive image data from bluetooth ACL link and decode the compressed image and then display the image to screen. Sever and Client can transmit and receive voice data simultaneously using bluetooth SCO link. In this paper bluetooth HCI commands and events generated by host controller to return the results of HCI commands are explained and the flow of bluetooth connection procedure is presented.

We propose ROI(region of interest) image coding application to still image using PSBS(partial significant bitplane shift)method combined with human face region detecting system. PSBS is an encoding algorithm for ROI image coding in JPEG2000, and takes advantages of both generic scaling based method and maximum shift method defined in JPEG2000. The Powerful advantages of PSBS are able to adjusting image quality in ROI and background flexibly, and support arbitrarily shaped ROI coding without coding the shape. In this letter, we show how to compress an image for human face region using PSBS method combined with human face region detecting system, and propose its application.

Digital watermarking has been recently proposed as the means of intellectual property right protection of multimedia data. We present a novel watermarking scheme to hide a copyright information in a digital image. The method Is based on the 2D DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform) and image statistics. Gaussian and Laplacian noises as the watermarks are added to the large wavelet coefficients at the high and middle frequency bands in the wavelet domain. Experimental results show that the proposed Laplacian watermark is stronger to several common image distortions, such as noises, JPEG coding as different qualities, Gaussian blurring, and edge enhancement.

A wavelet based multiresolution watermarking method using the human visual system (HVS) is proposed, in which a different number of watermarks, in proportion to the energy contained in each band, are embedded into each band. Experiments with various test images show that the proposed three-level wavelet based method is robust to various attacks such as joint photographic experts group (JPEG) compression, smoothing, cropping, collusion, multiple watermarking, and so on.

An efficient texture compression method is proposed based on a block matching process between the current block and the previously encoded blocks. Texture mapping is widely used to improve the quality of rendering results in real-time applications. For fast texture mapping, it is important to find an optimal trade-off between compression efficiency and computational complexity. Low-complexity methods (e.g., ETC1 and DXT1) have often been adopted in real-time rendering applications because conventional compression methods (e.g., JPEG) achieve a high compression ratio at the cost of high complexity. We propose a block matching-based compression method that can achieve a higher compression ratio than ETC1 and DXT1 while maintaining computational complexity lower than that of JPEG. Through a comparison between the proposed method and existing compression methods, we confirm our expectations on the performance of the proposed method.

In this paper, We proposed a robust blind digital watermarking algorithm using variance and DCT domain. The proposed method embedded watermark signals into DC components of $8{\times}8$ block DCT using valiance, texture regions and smooth regions. In the digital watermarking algorithms using DCT domain, more robustness can be achieved if watermarks are embedded in DC components since DC components have much larger perceptual capacity than AC components. Experiment showed that robustness of the proposed method better than that of the conventional methods in JPEG quality and scaling attack.

The full-field digital mammography (FFDM), which has been known as a digital breast imaging system, carries out more outstanding performance than the screen-film mammography in overall image quality, skin & nipple, description of pectoral muscle and expression of micro-calcification. Thus, in this thesis, I perform experiments for both the enhancement of image quality and accurate estimation of the result in question, when detecting the very tiny-sized lesions in mammography. The image of digital breast X-rays is the important diagnostic tool for detecting early breast cancer and micro calcification lesion. The experiment of how much compression rate has an effect on the result of diagnosis in the case of microcalcification lesion, with JPEG2000 40:1 compression and over 50% enlargement led to obscure or definitely unacceptable diagnostic results is performed. And in another study of assessment of PSNR degree. I recognized the importance of standardized management system in mammography, where not to mention the accurate reading of the image has the most crucial role in diagnosis

디지털 핑거프린팅(Digital Fingerprinting)은 기 밀 정보를 디지털 콘텐츠에 삽입하는 측면에서는 디지털 워터마킹과 동일 하다고 볼 수 있으나 저작권자나 판매자의 정보가 아닌 콘텐츠를 구매한 사용자의 정보를 삽입함으로써 콘텐츠 불법 배포자를 추적할 수 있도록 한다는 점에서 워터마킹과 차별화된 기술이다. 이러한 핑거프린팅 기술은 소유권에 대한 인증뿐만 아니라 개인 식별 기능까지 제공해야 하므로 기존의 워터마킹이 갖추어야 할 요구사항인 비가시성, 견고성, 유일성과 더불어 공모허용, 비대칭성, 익명성, 조건부 추적성 등이 부가적으로 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 행렬의 한 열을 선택 후 쉬프팅 기법을 사용 하서 사용자 정보로 조합하여 핑거프린트를 생성하였다. 이렇게 생성된 핑거프린트 정보를 2레벨 웨이블릿 변환 영역 중 LH2, HL2, HH2 부대역에 삽입하였다. 쉬프팅 정보와 도메인 개념을 사용하여 보다 많은 사용자에게 핑거프린트 정보를 삽입할 수 있으며, 공모공격과 JPEG 압축에서도 최소한 1명 이상의 공모자를 검출할 수 있는 핑거프린팅의 기본 조건을 만족하였다.

본 논문에서는 기존의 비디오와 오디오 중심의 멀티미디어 스트리밍 방법과는 달리 정지 영상의 스케줄 정보도 고려하여 전체 스트리밍의 QoS (Quality of Service)를 높이는 스트리밍 방법을 제안한다. MP4 콘텐츠의 분량이 커지고 내용이 복잡해질수록 비디오와 오디오 이 외의 데이터들을 더 이상 무시할 수 없게 된다. MP4의 장면 구성 정보를 알면 임의의 시점에서 재생되는 화면과 소리를 알 수가 있고, 이 정보, 즉 스케줄 정보를, 고려하여 정지영상 객체를 전송한다면 보다 효율적인 스트리밍이 가능하다 또한, 비디오와 오디오에 스케일러블 부호화를 적용하면 QoS를 높일 수 있듯이, 정지영상의 경우 Progressive JPEG을 이용하면 스케일러블한 전송이 가능하다. 이에 제안된 스트리밍 서버에서는 정지 영상 스케줄 정보와 정지 영상 객체를 Progressive JPEG으로 변환하여 스트리밍 서비스를 제공하고 있다.
