In this paper, we propose an effective compression method for electrocardiogram(ECG) signals. 1-D ECG signals are reconstructed to 2-D ECG data by period and complexity sorting schemes with image compression techniques to Increase inter and intra-beat correlation. The proposed method added block division and mean-period normalization techniques on top of conventional 2-D data ECG compression methods. JPEG 2000 is chosen for compression of 2-D ECG data. Standard MIT-BIH arrhythmia database is used for evaluation and experiment. The results show that the proposed method outperforms compared to the most recent literature especially in case of high compression rate.

In this paper, we propose a lossless compression algorithm using adaptive DPCM(Differential Pulse Coded Modulation) for enhancing the compression ratio. To improve the compression efficiency, various DPCM modification algorithms have been proposed. Proposed algorithm presents 16 DPCM methods and adaptively selects the DPCM method for each block. The experimental results show that proposed DPCM algorithm has better performance on compression ratio than JPEG standard.

Nowadays, zerotrees based digital watermarking techniques are considered to be an efficient watermarking technique used for multimedia data in a compressed form. This paper presents a technique for watermarking an image, by employing zerotrees derived from the wavelet packet coefficients of the transformed image to carry the watermark signal. By setting a proper threshold in zerotrees determining process, the watermark signal can be recovered without the need of original image. With our proposed technique, more amount of watermark signal can be embedded within the image, compared to ordinary wavelet transform based techniques. The experimental results show the improved performance in both qualities of the resultant watermarked image and robustness of the embedded watermark signal against common signal processing such as brightness/contrast enhancement, high-pass filtering, Gaussian noise adding and JPEG compression scheme

This paper presents a wavelet-based digital watermarking scheme for color images. We insert watermarks in the DWI domain using spread-spectrum correlation-based watermarking in luminance component of the color image. The watermark, two pseudorandom patterns, is inserted by modifying the wavelet coefficients at subband HL2, LH2, HH2 according to message bits. To detect watermark, we calculate the correlation between the watermarked image and pseudorandom patterns. As compared with correlations, the watermark detector determines embedding message. Experimental results show that the scheme is not only invisible but also robust to various attacks such as JPEG compression, noise addition and so on.

Current paper introduces the additional multimedia module for digital TV. The module is developed for displaying the image captured by digital still camera, camcorder, or PC in the digital TV. For these purpose, the module has the interface circuit for accessing five media type of memory cards. It decodes JPEG, BMP, or TIFF image data saved in the memory card and converts the image data to analog RGB signal. It also supports three types of output image size from HD to WXGA resolution. So the introduced module could be adopted In the most of digital TV.

This paper describes CAD tools for the construction of image database in IC chip analysis CAD system. For IC chip analysis by high-resolution microscopy, the image database is essential to manage more than several thousand images. But manual database construction is error-prone and time-consuming. In order to solve this problem, we develop a set of CAD toos that include image grabber to capture chip images, image editor to make the whole chip image database from the grabbed images, and image divider to reconstruct the database that consists of evenly overlapped images for efficient region search. we also develop an interactive pattern matching method for user-friendly image editing, and a heuristic region search method for fast image division. The tools are developed with a high-performance graphic hardware with JPEG image comparession chip to process the huge color image data. The tools are under the field test and experimental resutls show that the database construction time can be redcued in 1/3 compared to manual database construction.

본 논문에서는 급부상하고 있는 가상현실 기술에서의 저작권 보호를 위해 VR영상을 타겟으로 하는 워터마킹 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 VR영상의 합성에 널리 사용되는 SIFT 알고리즘을 통해 조건에 만족하는 점을 찾고, 그 점을 중심으로 한 주변 영역에 이산 웨이블릿 변환을 수행하여 워터마크를 삽입하는 방법이다. 또한 추출할 때에는 기존에 삽입한 워터마크와의 NCC값을 비교하여 일정 임계값 이상의 데이터들을 추출하고, 통계적 방법으로 최종 워터마크를 확정하게 된다. 이에 대해 가우시안 필터. 가우시안 노이즈, Sharpening, 회전변환, JPEG 압축 등의 공격을 가하고, 공격 후 추출되는 워터마크의 NCC, BER 값을 비교하여 워터마크의 강인성(robustness)을 확인한다.

This paper's purpose is to obtain 3-Dimension information by using a monocular camera. This system embodies to obtain the height of object by using trigonometry method between a reference point of circumstance and an object. It is possible to build up system regardless of operating system, and then set it up. An comfortable USB port camera is used everywhere without the capture board. The internet can be used by using the applet and JMF everywhere. We regard the camera as a fixed. And we have developed a Real-Time JPEG/RTP Network Camera system using UDP/IP on Ethernet.

In this paper, we implement the internet-based remote control system for intelligent robot. For remote control of the robot, it uses the socket communication of the TCP/IP. It consists of the user interface and the robot control interface. Robot control interface transmits the navigation and environmental informations of the robot into the user interface. In order to transmit the large environmental images, a JPEG compression algorithm is used. User interface displays the navigation status of the robot and transmits the navigation order into the robot control interface. Also, we propose the design method of the fuzzy controller using navigation data acquired by expert's knowledge or experience. To do this, we use virus-evolutionary genetic algorithm(VEGA). Finally, we have shown the proposed system can be operated through the real world experimentations.

A conventional image coder, such as JPEG, requires not only DCT and quantization but also additional pre-filtering under noisy environment. Since the pre-filtering removes camera noise and improves coding efficiency dramatically, its efficient implementation has been an important issue. Based on well-known noise removal techniques in image processing fields, this paper introduces an efficient scheme by adapting a noise removal procedure to block-based image coders. By using two-dimensional DCT factorization, the proposed image coder has only a modified DCT and a VLC, and performs pre-filtering and quantization simultaneously in the modified DCT operation.
