초록

호모몰픽 필터링은 푸리에 변환에 기초를 둔 기법으로 주파수 영역에서 저주파 신호는 약화시키고 고주파 신호는 강화하여 영상의 대비 차를 강화시키는 처리기법이다. 호모몰픽 필터링을 위한 응용 프로그램을 개발하여 인공위성영상과 지구물리 자력탐사 자료를 이미지화한 영상에 시험적으로 적용하여 그 결과를 분석하였다. 영상평활화 기법이나 커널 마스크 처리 등과 같은 영상강화 기법에서는 추출 가능한 경계부의 위치를 변화시키거나 영상의 화소값이 전체 영상을 대상으로 변화시키는 반면에 호모몰픽 필터링은 세부적인 영상 정보의 내용을 선택적으로 강조할 수 있다. 호모몰픽 필터링은 인공위성 영상에서 복잡한 지형지물의 특성을 추출하거나 분리하는 데 효과적인 방법으로 나타났으며 지구물리 영상자료에서 이상대를 조사하는 경우에도 유용하게 적용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Homomorphic filtering improves image by enhancing high components and reducing low components in the Sequency domain based on FFT, as one of useful digital image processing techniques. In this study, the application program f3r homomorphic filtering was developed. Using this program, satellite imageries and geophysical image such as magnetic image data were processed and their results were analyzed. In case of applying to other techniques suck as histogram equalization and kernel-based masking f3r the same purpose. they often cause the slight distortion of boundary or overall change of brightness values on the whole image. Whereas. homomorphic filtering has ability to enhance selectively detailed components in a target image. Therefore. this technique can be effectively used for extraction or separation of complex types of characteristics contained in the satellite imagery. In addition, this technique would be applicable to investigate anomalous zone in various geophysical image data.
