In this study, we measured the natural frequencies of aluminum honeycomb sandwich beams using digital image correlation technique. The vibration images were captured using two high speed digital cameras and the images were converted to displacements by the digital image correlation technique. Displacement data in time domain were tranformed to frequency domain data by fast Fourier transform software. To reduce noise invoked by random exitation, a spectrum averaging technique and Savitsky-Golay digital filter were adopted. A conventional vibration measurement using an accelerometer and a finite element analysis were performed to compare the results by high speed digital camera measurement method. In conclusion, new method using high speed digital cameras and digital image correlation technique can measure the vibration of beam structures and can be applied to bio-structures where sensors cannot be attached.

일반적으로 디지털 영상에 대한 기존 워터마킹 기법은 기하학적인 왜곡에 허약하다. 본 논문에서는 기하학적인 왜곡에 강건한 워터마킹 기법을 제안한다. 워터마킹 기법은 워터마크의 생성단계 워터마크 삽입단계, 워터마크 추출 단계로 구성된다. 워터마크 생성단계에서는 시각적으로 구별이 가능한 그레이 영상을 워터마크로 사용하며, 워터마크 삽입 단계에서는 원 영상을 콤플렉스 웨이블릿 변환하여 위상 정보에 워터마크를 삽입한다. 그리고 워터마크 추출 단계에서는 워터마크된 영상으로부터 계층적으로 워터마크를 추출하여 자기 상관관계 비교에 의해 워터마크를 추출한다. 실험 결과를 통하여 이동, 크기 변환, 회전과 같은 기하학적인 변형에도 워터마크가 추출되는 것을 볼 수 있다.

The existing watermarking techniques for copyright protection of a digital image are fragile in geometric distortion and it is hard to detect whether it was manipulated artificially. In this paper, we proposed the new copyright protection system that can authorize a digital mage and :an embed or extract a robust watermark in a artificial manipulation in order to solve these problems. In a watermarking part, the proposed a watermarking technique embeds a watermark in a phase component after a Complex Wavelet Transform (CWT) with an original image, and a watermark is extracted from an watermarked image by stages. A copyright about an image can be insisted on than a threshold after comparing a correlation of an original watermark with an extracted watermark if large. In an authentication part of a digital image, EZW (Embedded Zerotree Wavelet) is used, and an authentication cord of an watermarked image is generated. An authentication code of an image to have been distribute to is compared with a generated authentication cord, and artificial operation isn´t than a threshold if large. The proposed copyright protection system through performance evaluation display that it was robust in geometric distortion and a artificial operation was able to be detected.

In this paper, the reconstruction scheme of lost block in the transmission of block coded image is proposed. Due to differential coding of dc coefficient in JPEG images when JPEG image are transmitted over wireless communications, the effect of errors can destroy entire blocks of the image. Therefore, we aim to reconstruct the lost information using correlation between the lost block and its neighbor blocks. In order to evaluate the performance of this scheme, we inserted some intentional block error into the test images. And we obtained good results objectively and subjectively by experiments.

In this study the applicability of a Digital Image Correlation (DIC) method was investigated by measuring the displacement and vibration of rock pillar due to underground mining blasting. When combined with a high speed photography technology, the DIC method provides an excellent photographic image processing ability that can be used to convert the evolving full-field surface properties of structures to 2D or 3D set of coordinate values. The measured coordinate sets are then used to calculate the displacement, strain, and velocity of the target structure. This technique is widely used in science and engineering, and continuously finds its new application areas. In this study, the DIC system and the conventional seismograph were compared for their ability to measure the displacement and vibration produced by blasting. In the field test both methods showed similar results. Thus, it is concluded that the DIC method is feasible to measure the ground displacements and vibrations from blasting.

Images play the most important role in human perception. In order to send the image information by the digital type, the compression is essential. Recently, a lot of studies on encoding algorithms for image by wavelet transform are going on. In this paper, a quadtree-based method of image compression applied to the images decomposed by wavelet transform by using the correlations between pixels and '0' data grouping is proposed. For the proposed method, the experimental gray image with $256{\times}256$ size and 8[bit], is used. And, the performance of proposed method is evaluated to compare with DCT compression method.

디지털 영상압축 방법인 ITU-T H.263++ 부호화기법 중에는 계층 모드(scalability mode)를 지원한다. 계층 모드는 한 개의 송신 영상에 대해서도 복호기와 전송로에 따라서 여러 가지 화질의 재생 영상을 얻을 수 있게 한다. 계층 모드는 시간적, 공간적, SNR(signal-to-noise ratio)로 나누어진다. 그 중에서 SNR 계층 모드는 고급계층에 따라서 다양한 해상도를 가질 수 있다. 계층부호화에는 크게 기본계층과 고급계층으로 나누어지는데, 기본계층은 QoS를 보장하여, 화질은 떨어지나 에러 없이 영상을 전송하고, 고급계층에서는 기본계층에 해상도 에러에 대한 나머지 정보를 전송한다. 고급계층으로 전송되는 정보는QoS가 보장되지 않으므로 비트에러나, 팻킷 에러가 발생 할 수 있다. 따라서 고급계층에 에러가 발생하게 되고, 에러 전파 현상이 일어난다. 본 논문에서는 단일계층부호화와 2 Layer 계층부호화에서 발생되는 에러의 차이점을 알아보고, 데이터 손실 없는 기본계층과 에러가 발생하는 고급계층에 상관관계를 분석하여, SNR계층부호화에서 맞는 고급계층 에러은닉 기법을 제안한다.

The field of medical images has been digitalized as the development of computer and the digitalization of the medical instruments. As a result it causes a lot of problems such as an illegal copy related to medical images and property right of the medical images. Therefore, digital watermarking is used for discrimination whether the data are modified or not. It is also used to protect both the property right of medical images and the private life of many patients. The proposed theories, the Non-blind and the Blind method, have two problems. One is needed an original image and the other is using a gaussian watermarking. This paper proposes the new Blind Watermarking using binary images in order to easily recognize the results of watermark. This algorithm is described that an watermark of a binary image is wavelet-transformed, and then a transformed watermark is inserted in medium-band of frequency domains of original image by the Circular Input method. The propose method presented the good performance of over 0.97 in NC.

This paper proposes a new Digital Watermarking based on Wavelet Transform for Color Images. To ensure the security of the watermark, enlarged watermark by applying linear bit expansion is inserted in a given intensity to a low frequency subband of the color image Y band which is Wavelet transformed after the Arnold Transformation. When detecting the presence of watermark, F norm function is applied unlike the existing methods. The experiment results verify that the proposed watermarking technique has outstanding quality in regards to fidelity and robustness.
