최근 딥 러닝 기법의 하나인 합성곱 신경망(Convolutional Neural Network, CNN)은 영상 잡음(Noise) 제거 분야에서 전통적인 기법보다 좋은 성능을 나타내고 있지만 학습하는 과정에서 영상 내 디테일한 부분이 손실될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 웨이블릿 변환(Wavelet Transform)을 기반으로 영상 내 디테일 정보도 같이 학습하여 영상 디테일을 향상하는 잡음 제거 합성곱 신경망 네트워크를 제안한다. 제안하는 네트워크는 디테일 향상 서브 네트워크(Detail Enhancement Subnetwork)와 영상 잡음 추출 서브 네트워크(Noise Extraction Subnetwork)를 이용하게 된다. 실험을 통해 제안하는 방법은 기존 알고리듬보다 디테일 손실 문제를 효과적으로 해결할 수 있었고 객관적 품질 평가인 PSNR(Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio)와 주관적 품질 비교에서 모두 우수한 결과가 나온 것을 확인하였다.

The purpose of this study is to explore the methodology of structural planning and detail, maintaining a close connection between architect and structural engineer. Actually it is difficult to solve a detail in a special structure, without investigation of structural behavior. In such a detail, it is hard to estimate the accurate flow of force, no more than a formative presentation. I will purpose to solve the processing of desirable detail, as a point of engineer's view, under the cooperative relationship between architect and structural engineer.

For low contrast images, a histogram equalization is possible to easily identify information when the intensity is concentrated in an image. Over contrast enhancement is the problem of generating an unnatural image cognitively because the focus of existing techniques was the contrast enhancement. In order to solve this problem, CLAHE method solves unnatural problems by limiting contrast using a maximum threshold. However, this method has an extra problem that concealed detail information in an image. This paper proposes a detail-map based on the multiple layers block overlapped histogram equalization in order to avoid loss of detail information. Loss of detail information has been made to minimize as combining images with limited contrast enhancement using a detail-map in each layers.

Although the performance of cameras is gradually improving now, there are noise in the acquired digital images from the camera, which acts as an obstacle to obtaining high-resolution images. Traditionally, a filtering method has been used for denoising, and a convolutional neural network (CNN), one of the deep learning techniques, has been showing better performance than traditional methods in the field of image denoising, but the details in images could be lost during the learning process. In this paper, we present a CNN for image denoising, which improves image details by learning the details of the image based on wavelet transform. The proposed network uses two subnetworks for detail enhancement and noise extraction. The experiment was conducted through Gaussian noise and real-world noise, we confirmed that our proposed method was able to solve the detail loss problem more effectively than conventional algorithms, and we verified that both objective quality evaluation and subjective quality comparison showed excellent results.

넓은 동적 영역 (high dynamic range: HDR) 이미지는 시각적으로 우수하지만 대부분의 디스플레이는 좁은 동적 영역 (low dynamic range: LDR)만 지원이 가능하다. 이를 해결하기 위해서 톤 매핑 기법 (tone mapping operator: TMO)을 사용한 동적 영역 압축을 수행한다. 기존의 적응적 로그 매핑 (adaptive logarithmic mapping)의 경우 에지 부분에서 디테일이 손실되는 문제점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 가이디드 이미지 필터링 (guided image filtering: GIF)을 통해 베이스 레이어와 디테일 레이어로 나눠서 처리하는 알고리듬을 제안한다. 베이스 레이어는 적응적 로그 매핑을 통해 동적 영역을 압축하고 디테일 레이어와 더해 기존의 톤 매핑 과정에서 발생하는 디테일의 손실을 감소시켰다.

In this paper, we propose a multi-scale high dynamic range (HDR) tone mapping algorithm using guided image filter (GIF). The GIF is used to divide an image into a base layer and a detail layer, then the range of the detail layer is reduced with a compression function to enhance the detail information of the image. However, in most cases, an image includes the detail and edge information in different scales. That is to say, it is difficult to represent all detail features under a certain scale, and a single-scale image decomposition method is not free from artifacts around edges. To solve the problems, the multi-scale image decomposition method is proposed. It utilizes the detail layers of several scale to determine how much edge is preserved. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm has better image performance in preserving edge compared to conventional algorithm.

Humans desire the achievement a of sense of unity between themselves and place to create an identity of place as a realization of his or her sense of belonging. Humans develop ideas from their culture and environment to be expressed physically within the landscape through symbols. Symbols are formed within a place through the structure of the space and, more visually, through the details. The purpose of this paper is to examine the structure of space and the details of 'the Courtyard of the lions' in the Alhambra and to study how the details influence the formation of the identity of place. This paper also compares the structure and details in terms of the meaning of symbols, design languages, cultural, social and historical background and the experience of the place. The structure of the space in 'the Courtyard of the Lions' represents Paradise in the Islamic religion a common theme in the composition of traditional Islamic gardens. The design languages expressed within the structure are order, balance, accent and enclosure; the inherit meanings of the structure are religion, the natural environment and way of life. The details tell of the ideology of Paradise, royalty, nature, and praise of God, while their design languages include physical and visual continuity, accent, variation, the feeling of movement, rhythm, and depth perception. The details also express the historical background of the Dynasty of Nasrid and the style of Mudejar. The name 'the Courtyard of the Lions' was taken from the detail of the lim figures, details within the landscape which are important in building an identity of place. This study demonstrates that the details at 'the Courtyard of the lions' achieved a sense of unity between man and place. In conclusion, details have immense influence in building of the identity of place.

In this paper, the development of an automotive thermal imaging camera providing image information for ADAS (Advanced Driver Assist System) and autonomous vehicles is described and an improved technique to enhance the details of the image is proposed. Thermal imaging cameras are used in various fields, such as the medical, industrial and military fields, for the purpose of temperature measurement and night vision. In automobiles, they are utilized for night vision systems. For their utilization in ADAS and autonomous vehicles, appropriate image resolution and enhanced detail are required for object recognition. In this study, a $640{\times}480$ resolution thermal imaging camera that can be applied to automobiles is developed and the BDE (Block-Range Detail Enhancement) technique is applied to improve the details of the image. In order to improve the image detail obtained in various driving environments, the block-range values between the target pixel and the surrounding 8 pixels are calculated and classified into 5 levels. Then, different factors are added or subtracted to obtain images with high utilization. The improved technique distinguishes the dark part of the image by the resulting temperature difference of 130mK and shows an improvement in the fine detail in both the bright and dark parts of the image. The developed thermal imaging camera using the improved detail enhancement technique is applied to a test vehicle and the results are presented.
