In general, a color of an image is represented by using red, green, and blue channels in a RGB camera system. However, only information of three channels are limited to estimate a spectral reflectance of a real scene. Because of this, the RGB camera system can not accurately represent the color. To overcome this limitation and represent an accurate color, researches to estimate the spectral reflectance by using a multi-channel camera system are being actively proceeded. Recently, a reflectance estimation method adaptively constructing a similar training set from a traditional training set according to a camera response by using a spectral similarity was introduced. However, in this method, an accuracy of the similar training set is reduced because the spectral similarity based on an average and a maximum distances was applied. In this paper, a reflectance estimation method applied a spectral similarity based on a correlation coefficient is proposed to improve the accuracy of the similar training set. Firstly, the correlation coefficient between the similar training set and the spectral reflectance obtained by Wiener estimation method is calculated. Secondly, the similar training set is constructed from the traditional training set according to the correlation coefficient. Finally, Wiener estimation method applied the similar training set is performed to estimate the spectral reflectance. To evaluate a performance of the proposed method with previous methods, experimental results are compared. As a result, the proposed method showed the best performance.

This paper presents a novel approach for representing the spatio-temporal topology of the camera network with overlapping and non-overlapping fields of view (FOVs) in Ubiquitous Smart Space (USS). The topology is determined by tracking moving objects and establishing object correspondence across multiple cameras. To track people successfully in multiple camera views, we used the Merge-Split (MS) approach for object occlusion in a single camera and the grid-based approach for extracting the accurate object feature. In addition, we considered the appearance of people and the transition time between entry and exit zones for tracking objects across blind regions of multiple cameras with non-overlapping FOVs. The main contribution of this paper is to estimate transition times between various entry and exit zones, and to graphically represent the camera topology as an undirected weighted graph using the transition probabilities.

In this paper, a real-time monocular vision based navigation system is developed for the disabled people, where online background learning and vector field histogram are used for identifying obstacles and recognizing avoidable paths. The proposed system is performed by three steps: obstacle classification, occupancy grid map generation and VFH-based path recommendation. Firstly, the obstacles are discriminated from images by subtracting with background model which is learned in real time. Thereafter, based on the classification results, an occupancy map sized at $32{\times}24$ is produced, each cell of which represents its own risk by 10 gray levels. Finally, the polar histogram is drawn from the occupancy map, then the sectors corresponding to the valley are chosen as safe paths. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed system, it was tested with a variety of obstacles at indoors and outdoors, then it showed the a'ccuracy of 88%. Moreover, it showed the superior performance when comparing with sensor based navigation systems, which proved the feasibility of the proposed system in using assistive devices of disabled people.

Gas leak detection system is a key to minimize the loss of life due to the explosiveness and toxicity of gas. Most of the leak detection systems detect by gas sensors or thermal imaging cameras. To improve the performance of gas leak detection system using single-modal methods, the paper propose multimodal approach to gas sensor data and thermal camera data in developing a gas type identification model. MultimodalGasData, a multimodal open-dataset, is used to compare the performance of the four models developed through multimodal approach to gas sensors and thermal cameras with existing models. As a result, 1D CNN and GasNet models show the highest performance of 96.3% and 96.4%. The performance of the combined early fusion model of 1D CNN and GasNet reached 99.3%, 3.3% higher than the existing model. We hoped that further damage caused by gas leaks can be minimized through the gas leak detection system proposed in the study.

In general, an ordinary CCTV camera has equipped with 24 frames per second. This camera is not capable of capturing an image of bullet trace which has speed about 1km per second. In spite of these difficulties, by means of the stereographical projection, a long distance trace is able to be contained in one image. Currently, to capture a series of image of an object with high speed, it is usual to use one of the complicated camera with high shutter speed or computerized devices with capability of controlling shutter timing with slightly different capture time. This paper proposed a monitoring tracer bullet single camera system equipped convex mirror trying to see whether or not a normal set of camera and convex mirror is capable of shooting on target located in as far as 250m.

Zoom lens camera calibration is an important and difficult problem for two reason at least. First, the intrinsic parameters of such a camera change over time, it is difficult to calibration them on-line. Secondly, the pin-hole model for single lens system can not be applied directly to a zoom lens system. In this paper, We address some aspects of this problem.

다양한 센서 및 영상 카메라를 이용한 교통, 보안 및 안전 감시 시스템에 있어 처리해야 하는 영상 데이터의 양은 점점 커져가고 있다. 또한 단일 카메라가 아닌 많은 수의 카메라를 이용할 경우 운영자가 모든 영상 데이터를 확인하고 이에 대한 응답을 즉시 하기가 힘이 든다. 따라서 영상 데이터를 이용하기 위한 시스템에서 소프트웨어적인 처리는 필수이며 물체를 정확하게 추적하기 위해서는 물체를 인식하고 물체의 움직임을 예측하고 움직임을 보정하는 단계가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 물체의 움직임을 정확히 추적하기 위하여 이동 물체를 추적할 때에 적절한 Kalman 필터를 이용하여 고속 물체 추적 시스템을 구현하였다.

본 논문에서는 다양한 정보 획득을 목적으로 설계되는 카메라의 핵심 부품인 영상센서의 종류별 동작 특성에 대해 분석하였다. 카메라의 영상센서는 기본적으로 카메라 광학계 설계에 영향을 받으며, 운용의 편이성, 획득 영상의 품질 및 사용되는 환경에 따라 적당한 영상센서가 선택되어 사용된다. 용도에 따라 탑재체에 할당된 무게 및 크기가 제한되므로, 적당한 광학계의 크기와 목표 영상 획득을 위해 센서의 화소면 크기가 결정된다. 가시광선 영역에서는 CCD(Charge Coupled Device), CMOS(complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) 및 NMOS 등의 종류별 영상센서가 사용될 수 있으며, 충분한 광량 확보를 위해서는 넓은 크기의 화소를 보유한 센서가 필요하지만, 이 경우 광학계의 크기와 무게가 증가하여 한정된 자원이 허락된 탑재체 설계에 부담이 된다. 제어단 설계시 빛의 수광 능력이 좋은 CCD 영상 센서를 사용할 경우 좀 더 복잡하고 비교적 높은 소비전력이 요구되는 전자부가 설계되며, 상대적으로 간단한 제어단이 요구되는 CMOS 센서의 경우, 빛의 수광 능력이 CCD에 비해 떨어진다는 단점이 있다. 이 논문에서는 두 가지 영상 센서의 특성 분석을 통해 영상 시스템 설계시 영상 센서 선택에 필요한 고려 사항에 대해 분석하였고, 효율적인 영상 시스템 설계 방안에 대해 서술하였다.

광섬유를 이용한 광스위치 연결작업에 있어서 페룰(Ferrule)면의 가공정도는 광커넥터 작업의 성패를 자우하는 매우 중요한 요소이다. 종래의 방법에서는 페룰면을 육안 검사나 현미경을 통한 확대 검사등의 방법을 사용하였고 자동화 검사의 경우도 절대적인 평탄도나 진원도를 나타내는 절대적인 값을 제시하고 있지 못한 단점이 있다. 이를 보완하기 위하여 카메라 입력단에 사각형의 기하 구조를 설치하고 이를 기준으로 영상을 전면에서 본 영상으로 변환하여 페룰면의 가공정도를 나타내주는 변수를 추출하는 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 또한 실제 구현을 통하여 알고리즘의 강인성을 증명하였다.
