A layer channel, which can express effects on 3D image, is inserted to use it on application rendering effectively. The current method of effect rendering requires individual sources in storage and image processing, because it uses individual and mixed management of images and effects. However, we can save costs and improve results in images processing by processing both image and layer channels together. By changing image format to insert a layer channel in image and adding a hide function to conceal the layer channel and control to make it possible to approach image and layer channels simultaneously during loading image and techniques hiding the layer channel by changing image format with simple techniques, like alpha blending, etc., it is developed to improve reusability and be able to be used in all programs by combining the layer channel and image together, so that images in changed format can be viewed in general image viewers. With the configuration, we can improve processing speed by introducing image and layer channels simultaneously during loading images, and reduce the size of source storage space for layer channel images by inserting a layer channel in 3D images. Also, it allows managing images in 3D image and layer channels simultaneously, enabling effective expressions, and we can expect to use it effectively in multimedia image used in practical applications.

기존의 초해상도 딥러닝 기법은 모델의 깊이가 깊어지면서, 좋은 성능을 내지만 점점 더 복잡해지고 있고, 실제로 사용하는데 있어 많은 시간을 요구한다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 우리는 딥러닝 모델의 가중치를 양자화 하여 추론시간을 줄이고자 한다. 초해상도 모델은 feature extraction, non-linear mapping, reconstruction 세 부분으로 나누어져 있으며, 레이어 사이에 많은 skip-connection 이 존재하는 특징이 있다. 따라서 양자화 시 최종 성능 하락에 미치는 영향력이 레이어 별로 다르며, 이를 감안하여 강화학습으로 레이어 별 최적 bit 를 찾아 성능 하락을 최소화한다. 본 논문에서는 Skip-connection 이 많이 존재하는 MSRN 을 사용하였으며, 결과에서 feature extraction, reconstruction 부분과 블록 내 특정 위치의 레이어가 항상 높은 bit 를 가짐을 알 수 있다. 기존에 영상 분류에 한정되어 사용되었던 혼합 bit 양자화를 사용하여 초해상도 딥러닝 기법의 모델 사이즈를 줄인 최초의 논문이며, 제안 방법은 모바일 등 제한된 환경에 적용 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

An image coding based on MRC model, a kind of multi-layer image model, first segments a screen image into foreground, mask, and background layers, and then compresses each layer using a codec that is suitable to the layer. The mask layer defines the position of foreground regions such as textual and graphical contents. The colour signal of the foreground (background) region is saved in the foreground (background) layer. The mask layer which contains the segmentation result of foreground and background regions is of importance since its accuracy directly affects the overall coding performance of the codec. This paper proposes a new layer segmentation algorithm for the MRC based image coding. The proposed method extracts text pixels from the background using morphological top hat filtering. The application of white or black top hat transformation to local blocks is controlled by the information of relative brightness of text compared to the background. In the proposed method, the boundary information of text that is extracted from the edge map of the block is used for the robust decision on the relative brightness of text. Simulation results show that the proposed method is superior to the conventional methods.

This paper considers a cooperative communication system with a single relay node, where two-layer superposition coding and successive decoding is employed to reduce the expected distortion of a Gaussian source delivered. For the system, we propose a relay scheme which forwards an appropriate relay signal at the relay node, based on the local decoding result of layers and the decoding result of layers at the destination node fed back to the relay node. In the scheme, the relay signal is designed not only by applying decode-and-forward but also by applying amplify-and-forward to reduce the outage probability in final decoding of each layer. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated numerically in terms of the expected distortion at various relay locations using outage probabilities derived. The results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional schemes in most cases of the relay location and the gain gets larger when the relay node is closer to the source node in particular.

This paper presents a GIS vector map data compression scheme based on hybrid polyline simplification method and SEC(spatial energy compaction). The proposed method extracts all layers which contain polylines in the GIS vector map and compress all polylines in extracted layers by the hybrid polyline simplification and SEC based on MAE(minimum area error) for each segment in the line. The proposed simplification and SEC increase the compression ratio while preserving the shape quality. We analyze the visual aspects and compression efficiency between the original GIS vector map and the compressed map. From experimental results, we verify that our method has the higher compression efficiency and visual quality than conventional methods.

Recently, the interest in the safety of autonomous vehicles has globally been increasing. Also, there is controversy over the reliability and safety about autonomous vehicle. In Korea, the K-City which is a test-bed for testing autonomous vehicles has been constructing. There is a need for test scenarios for autonomous vehicle test in terms of safety. The purpose of this study is to develop the evaluation scenario for autonomous vehicle at community roads in K-City by using crash data collected by the Korea National Police Agency and a text-mining technique. As a result, 24 scenarios were developed in order to test autonomous vehicle in community roads. Finally, the logical and concrete scenario forms were derived based on the Pegasus 5-layer format.

In the existing text sentiment analysis models, the entire text is usually directly modeled as a whole, and the hierarchical relationship between text contents is less considered. However, in the practice of sentiment analysis, many texts are mixed with multiple emotions. If the semantic modeling of the whole is directly performed, it may increase the difficulty of the sentiment analysis model to judge the sentiment, making the model difficult to apply to the classification of mixed-sentiment sentences. Therefore, this paper proposes a sentiment analysis model BHGCN that considers the text hierarchy. In this model, the output of hidden states of each layer of BERT is used as a node, and a directed connection is made between the upper and lower layers to construct a graph network with a semantic hierarchy. The model not only pays attention to layer-by-layer semantics, but also pays attention to hierarchical relationships. Suitable for handling mixed sentiment classification tasks. The comparative experimental results show that the BHGCN model exhibits obvious competitive advantages.

본 논문에서는 3D 게임이나 가상현실, 인터렉티브 아트 등의 실시간 환경의 컨텐츠 제작에 활용가능한 수묵담채화풍의 렌더링 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 기존의 3차원 수묵화 렌더링 연구에서는 다루지 않았던, 색채표현법과 그 합성법을 중심으로 연구되었다. 색채표현법의 경우, 일반적으로 삼색을 단계적으로 겹쳐서 표현하는 수묵담채화의 특성에 따라, 실제 그림을 그릴 때에 적용되는 삼색의 혼합방법과 순서가 자동으로 적용될 수 있는 삼색기반 구조를 통해 농담과 질감효과를 표현했으며, 또한 이러한 삼색레이어의 합성을 위해서는 안료의 광학적 성질을 반영하여 실제 회화매체에 가까운 색상을 재현할 수 있는 Kubelka-Munk(KM)모델을 적용한다. 기존의 KM모델은 비사실적 렌더링 연구 분야에서 수채화, 유화 등 서양화를 대상으로 한 색채 합성에 적용되어 왔기 때문에 기존의 연구에서 제시한 방법만으로는 삼색레이어가 겹쳐질 때 나타나는 수묵담채화의 특징과 천연 재료를 사용하는 동양 안료의 색상을 정확히 반영할 수 없었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 실제 수묵담채화에 이용되는 전통안료의 색상 분석을 통해 KM모델에 적용할 파라미터들을 추출하고, 앞에서 설계한 삼색 기반 구조에 따라 색상을 합성하는 방법을 제시한다.

In this paper, we propose a new pre-processing algorithm applied to depth map to improve the coding efficiency. Now, 3DV/FTV group in the MPEG is working for standard of 3DVC(3D video coding), but compression method for depth map images are not confirmed yet. In the proposed algorithm, after dividing the histogram distribution of a given depth map by EM clustering method based on GMM, we classify the depth map into several layered images. Then, we apply different mean shift filter to each classified image according to the existence of background or foreground in it. In other words, we try to maximize the coding efficiency while keeping the boundary of each object and taking average operation toward inner field of the boundary. The experiments are performed with many test images and the results show that the proposed algorithm achieves bits reduction of 19% ~ 20% and computation time is also reduced.

In this paper a hybrid grid generation program for general 2-D region is introduced. The program is developed by using JAVA programming language, and it can be used either as an application program on a local computer or as an applet in the network environment. The hybrid grid system for a 2-D problem means a combination of triangular cells and quadrilateral cells, and it can offer both of the high flexibility of triangular cells and the high accuracy and efficiency of structured-type quadrilateral cells. To accommodate a quadrilateral-cell region and a triangular-cell region into one computational domain, it is importance to take good care of the interface between two different regions so that overall good grid quality can be maintained. In this research advancing layer method(ALM) augmented by elliptic smoothing method is used for the quadrilateral-cell region and advancing front method(AFM) is used for the triangular-cell region. A special treatment technique for the interface between those two regions is also developed. The interface treatment technique is basically to prevent the propagation of small cell size due to ALM method into the triangular region and maintain the smooth transition of cell-size scale between two different regions. By applying current technique high-quality hybrid grids for general 2-D regions can be easily generated, and typical grid generation results and flow solutions are demonstrated.
