In this paper, we propose a fast and accurate method of extracting lens array lattice in integral imaging by using an appropriate calibration pattern image and fast median filtering. In order to extract the lattice of a lens array, vertical and horizontal edge images are required. To extract edge images, the well-known previous method used separable median filters. However, this method is slow and difficult to determine the median filter size. In order to overcome this problem, we try to improve speed by calculating median value through binary counting method. In addition, we propose a calibration pattern image that detects edges well and improves the accuracy. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method is superior to the existing method in extracting the lattice of a lens array in integral imaging.

본 논문에서는 집적 영상에서 렌즈 배열의 격자를 정확하게 검출하기 위한 캘리브레이션 패턴 영상을 제안한다. 렌즈 배열의 격자를 검출하기 위해서 수직, 수평 방향의 에지 영상이 필요하다. 입력 영상의 에지를 잘 검출하지 못하면, 렌즈 배열의 요소 영상 크기를 결정할 때 오류가 발생할 수 있다. 이를 위해, 본 논문에서는 에지를 잘 검출할 수 있는 캘리브레이션 패턴 영상을 제안하여 정확도를 향상 시킨다. 본 논문에서는 실험을 통하여 제안하는 방법이 기존의 방법보다 집적 영상에서 렌즈 배열의 격자를 검출할 때 우수하게 적용될 수 있음을 보여주었다.

In this paper, we proposed a new detection method of pH image to effectively measure a 2-dimensional pH distribution of test materials by irradiating an frequency modulated light to LAPS using a reticle. It could measure simultaneously signals in one line by applying a modulated light having difference frequency for each pixel using a frequency modulating reticle, and calculating an amplitude with respect to a frequency component by the light source. To experiment the proposed method, we designed and implemented a reticle considering of a LAPS's characteristic, and reconstructed an image by frequency analysis using the implemented reticle and test pattern image. As a result, we verified that the proposed method using the reticle was able to detect 30 times faster for a $30{\times}30$ pixels pH image having a PSNR of 22-24 [dB] than conventional method.

In this paper, a new technique for image enhancement using weighted cross-shaped median filter with edge-detection algorithm is proposed. It consists of simple hypothesis test for edge-detection, and makes use of the cross-shaped moving window. This method is applied to noise corrupted image and its results are compared with those of median filters. As for the experimental result, method of weighted cross-shaped median filter is superior to other median filters.

This study aim to investigate image characteristics due to focus-grid and head phantom decentering from the armorphos silicon thin film transistor detector the fixed focus-grid is applied, wish to propose right use method of digital medical equipment. Acquired image according to focus-grid and head phantom position decentering using head phantom on armorphos silicon thin film transistor detector the fixed focus-grid is applied. acquired image evaluate pixel value, histogram, plot profile, surface plot using NIB (Image J) image analysis program and compared decentering image with standard image. Mean value and standard deviation value of focus-grid lateral decentering and duplex decentering of focus-grid and head phantom decreased by ratio, consequently increase of horizontality, diagonal decentering. also, deteriorated contrast of image because frequency of high pixel value decreases fairly. according increases decentering, image distortion phenomenon was increase, by next time, pixel mean value of head phantom decentering was no big change but horizontality, diagonal, mean value and standard deviation value of pixel decreased by ratio. Even if increase pixel noise of image because wide latitude and post processing ability of digital detector, radiotechnologist can not recognize. Therefore, radiotechnologist must recognize correctly the photographing factors which increases pixel noise on the grid system installation digital detector and should exam.

This paper presents an image segmentation algorithm to obtain the 3D body shape data that the grid pattern and the body contour lute in the background image are extracted using the new proposed hybrid method. The body contour line is extracted based on maximum biased anisotropic recognition(MaxBAR) algorithm which recognizes the most strong and robust edges in the image since the normal derivative at the edges is large, while the tangential derivatives can be small. The grid patterns within body contour lines are extracted by grid pattern detection (GPD). The body contour lilies and the grid patterns are combined. The consecutive run test based on heuristic method is used to link the disconnected line and reduce noise line. This proposed segmentation method is more effective than the conventional method which uses a gradient and a laplacian operator, verified with application two conventional method.

In this paper, we focus on how to calibrate multi-cameras easily and how to efficiently detect quad-copters with small-numbered particles. Each particle is a six dimensional vector that is composed of 3D position and 3D orientation of a quad-copter in the space. Due to curse of dimensionality, that leads to explosive computational costs with a large amount of high-dimensioned particles. To detect efficiently, we need to put more particles in very promising spaces and few particles in other spaces. Though computational cost is lowered by minimizing particles, in order to track a quad-copter with multiple cameras in real-time, multiple images from the cameras should be synchronized and analyzed. Therefore, lots of the computations still need to be done. Because of this, GPGPU(General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units) is implemented for parallel computing. This method has been successfully tested and gives accurate results in practical situations.

We have proposed and experimentally demonstrated a novel fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing interrogation method using bidirectional modulation of a Mach-Zehnder electro-optical modulator (MZ-EOM). The proposed structure consists mainly of a broadband light source (BBS), FBG, MZ-EOM, chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG), and photodetector (PD). We have obtained the transfer functions of the proposed structure and calculated the time delay from the change in the free spectral range (FSR) for ten wavelengths over the frequency range of 505 MHz to 525 MHz. The results show that the time delay and the wavelength variation have a good linear relationship with a gradient of 12.9 ps/0.2 nm, which can be usefully applied to FBG strain or temperature sensors and other multiplexed sensor applications.
