영상을 텍스처와 같은 성질의 영역으로 세그멘트 함으로써 새로운 very low bit rate 세그멘테이션 영상코딩 기술을 제안한다. 영역은 Human Visual System(HVS) 과 프락탈 특성을 이용하여 3 가지의 다른 텍스처 크래스(인간이 인지한 상 인텐셔티 (크라스 I), 부드러운 텍스처 (크라스 II) 및 거칠은 텍스처 (크리스 III) 중 1 가지로 구분한다. Very low bit rate 영상코더를 설계하기 위해 각각의 텍스처 크라스에 대해 nonoverlap과 overlap 세그멘테이션 방법을 결정하는 것이 중요하다. 좋은 화질을 갖는 재생영상은 여러 종류의 영상에 대해서 약 0.10에서 0.21비트/피셀에서 얻는다.

Objective image quality assessment (IQA) models have been developed by effective features to imitate the characteristics of human visual system (HVS). Actually, HVS is extremely sensitive to color degradation and complex texture changes. In this paper, we firstly reveal that many existing full reference image quality assessment (FR-IQA) methods can hardly measure the image quality with contrast and masking texture changes. To solve this problem, considering texture masking effect, we proposed a novel FR-IQA method, called Texture and Color Quality Index (TCQI). The proposed method considers both in the masking effect texture and color visual perceptual threshold, which adopts three kinds of features to reflect masking texture, color difference and structural information. Furthermore, random forest (RF) is used to address the drawbacks of existing pooling technologies. Compared with other traditional learning-based tools (support vector regression and neural network), RF can achieve the better prediction performance. Experiments conducted on five large-scale databases demonstrate that our approach is highly consistent with subjective perception, outperforms twelve the state-of-the-art IQA models in terms of prediction accuracy and keeps a moderate computational complexity. The cross database validation also validates our approach achieves the ability to maintain high robustness.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify visual perception of and satisfaction with the orange peel effect of surface. The orange peel effect is a type of finish on painted or coated surface. Background: Gloss paint sprayed on a smooth surface (such as car body, smart phone, and electric home appliances, etc.) should also dry into a smooth surface. Then, a surface resembling the texture of an orange peel can be caused by some factors. The orange peel effect can degrade user's satisfaction with a product. Method: Visual perception and emotional satisfaction were subjectively evaluated using Likert scale. The significance of orange peel effect on visual perception and satisfaction were then analyzed by the analysis of variance. The correlation between visual perception and satisfaction was also analyzed. Results: Surface roughness significantly influenced visual perception and emotional satisfaction. The level of visual perception increased and emotional satisfaction decreased with the increase of orange peel effect. Emotional satisfaction decreased with the increase of visual perception level. Conclusion: It was identified that orange peel phenomenon on surface was a very important factor for emotional satisfaction. The orange peel effect on the surface of a product should be minimized to improve the emotional satisfaction of the product. Application: The result of this study can be applied to the texture design of the body of a car, smart phones, and electric home appliances, etc.

Regarding global and local factors of a set of features, a given single image or multiple images is a common approach in image processing. This paper introduces an application of an adaptive version of non-local filter whose original version searches non-local similarity for removing noise. Since most images involve texture partner in both foreground and background, extraction of signified regions with texture is a challenging task. Aiming to the detection of visual attention regions for images with texture, we present the contrast analysis of image patches located in a whole image but not nearby with assistance of the adaptive filter for estimation of non-local divergence. The method allows extraction of signified regions with texture of images of wild life. Experimental results for a benchmark demonstrate the ability of the proposed method to deal with the mentioned challenge.

surface texture denotes set of tiny repetitive geometric features on an object surface. 3D Printing can readily create a surface of controlled macro-textures of high geometric complexity. Designing surface textures for 3D Printing, however, is difficult due to complex macro-structure of the tiny texture geometry since it needs to be compatible with the non-traditioal manufacturing method. In this paper we propose a visual simulation technique involving development of a virtual model-an intermediate geometric model-of the surface texture design prior to fabricating the physical model. Careful examination of the virtual model before the actual fabrication can help minimize unwanted design iterations. The proposed technique demonstrated visualization capability by comparing the virtual model with the physical model for several test cases.

Human Visual System(HVS)의 특성과 image의 textural regions의 roughness을 이용하여 image segmentation을 행하여 high compression에서도 고화질을 나타내는 새로운 image coder를 이 논문에서 논한다. 제안된 image coder는 constant segments를 가진 segmentation-based image coding technique의 문제들을 다음과 같은 방법론을 제안함으로써 해결하였다. Image를 HVS으로 보았을 때 degree of roughness에 관하여 textually homogeneous regions으로 segmentation하였다. Fractal dimension을 roughness of textural regions을 측정하기 위하여 사용하였다. Segmentation은 fractal dimension을 thresholding하여 textural regions이 three texture classes로 분류하였다(perceived constant intensity, smooth texture, and rough texture). High compression을 가지는 고질화의 image coder는 각각의 segment boundary와 각각의 texture class에 효율적인 coding technique를 적용 함으로 얻었다.

With the development of VR technology, the visual immersion of VR games has been greatly enhanced nowadays. There has been an issue that has been troubling players in previous VR games, which is motion sickness. Therefore, VR games have been limited in terms of game mechanics, game duration, and game scale, greatly reducing the immersive experience of visual immersion. However, <Half-Life: Alyx> is different from previous VR games in that players can actually perform spatial displacement in the game scene, rather than being fixed in one place for 360-degree observation and interaction. At the same time, compared to traditional games, VR games no longer need to rely on screens, and the complete visual immersion enhances the fun and playability of the game. This research focuses on the VR game <Half-Life: Alyx> to explore its immersive factors in terms of visual perception. Through in-depth analysis of elements such as color, texture mapping, lighting, etc. in VR games, it was found that the game creates a strong sense of visual immersion in these aspects. Through analysis, it is helpful to gain a deeper understanding of the factors that contribute to visual immersion in VR games, which has certain reference value for game developers and related professionals.

로우 폴리곤(Low-Polygon) 모델에 사용되는 텍스쳐 매핑은 3D게임그래픽 표현에 있어서 중요도가 높은 작업과정의 하나이다. 그 과정에서 손맵(hand painted texture)은 모델링 표면에 단 한 장의 텍스쳐를 사용하여 재질의 색상 및 시각적 촉각을 표현한다. 3D게임그래픽에서 돌출, 함몰과 같은 시각적 촉각 표현이 매우 중요하다. 평면을 입체적 양감으로 인지하는 것은 게슈탈트 법칙(Gestalt Law)의 경험적 시지각으로 해석할 수 있다. 또한 촉각을 인지하고 지각하는데 있어서 필요한 것이 어포던스(Affordance)라는 개념이다. 이는 학습과정에서 그 관계성을 시각적으로 지각하는 것을 의미한다. 본 논문에서는 3D게임그래픽 제작자들을 대상으로 한 손맵에 대한 설문조사 분석결과를 통하여 손맵이라는 텍스쳐 맵 제작 시 중요한 특징들을 제시하고 한다.

3D 영상을 시청하면서 느끼는 고유한 피로를 입체 시각 피로라고 부른다. 이 현상을 유발시키는 주된 요인으로 꼽히는 것은 화면시차, 상 흐림, 크로스톡 (crosstalk)의 세 가지 요인으로 알려져 있다. 이 중 화면 시차와 상 흐림은 영상 콘텐츠에 의하여 결정되며, 사용하는 디스플레이 종류에 관계없이 직접 조작할 수 있다. 그러나 크로스톡 요인은 다른 요인과는 다르게 3D 디스플레이의 물리적인 특성에 의하여 결정되는 요인이며 따라서 손쉽게 감소시키거나 제거하는 것이 불가능하다. 그러나 크로스톡이 입체 시각 피로에 미치는 영향은 자극 특성에 의하여 달라지며, 이러한 자극 특성은 조작 가능하다. 따라서 크로스톡이 입체 시각 피로에 미치는 영향을 확인하려면 크로스톡 지각에 영향을 미치는 자극 특성의 효과를 확인하여야 한다. 이런 목적을 달성하기 위하여 상대적 깊이 판단 과제를 사용하여 자극 특성 (자극과 배경의 대비, 배경 텍스쳐 밀도, 자극의 화면 시차)이 크로스톡 지각에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. 그 결과 영상에 배경이 존재하고 자극의 화면시차가 적을 때 지각되는 크로스톡이 감소함을 시사하는 결과를 얻었다.
