본 연구에서는 개선된 영역기반의 패턴매칭 기법을 사용하여 이동물체의 탐색과 검출을 수행하였다. 시간에 따라 변화하는 이동물체의 안정된 추적을 위해 매 영상 프레임마다 이동물체의 윤곽선을 탐지하여 다음 영상에서의 템플릿으로 사용하기 위해 갱신하였으며, 패턴매칭의 연산속도 향상을 위해 패턴 정합률에 따라 영상을 다른 비율로 압축하여 추적하는 방법을 제안하였다. 기존의 영상파일을 사용하여 시뮬레이션 한 결과 이동물체의 검출과 추적에 양호한 동작을 보여주었으며 제안된 방법의 실시간 동작 가능성을 조사하였다.

컴퓨터 비전을 이용한 이진 영상 데이터 처리는 사용자가 원하는 객체를 배경과 분리하여 추출하는 데에 유용하며 객체 위치 검출에는 테두리 검출(edge detection), 센트로이드 검출 (centroid detection) 등 다양한 기법들이 사용되어 왔다. 연속해서 움직이는 객체의 위치를 테두리 검출 기법을 이용하여 추종 시, 조명과 환경 잡음에 민감한 영상 데이터의 특성상 객체의 테두리 부분은 매 프레임마다 조금씩 차이가 있어 위치를 검출하는 데에 오차가 발생하기 쉽다. 그러나 센트로이드 기법으로 구할 경우 많은 픽셀의 무게중심을 구하는 것이므로 그 오차를 줄여 빠르고 정확한 위치 검출에 유용하다. 본 논문에서는 LabVIEW를 이용하여 진자운동 하는 물체의 센트로이드 점을 구하여 실시간 위치 검출을 구현한다.

Recently entered into an aging socity as the number of elderly drivers is increasing. Traffic accidents of elderly drivers are caused by driver inattentions such as poor vehicle control due to aging, visual information retrieval problems caused by presbyopia, and objects identifying problems caused by low contrast sensitivity. In this paper, detection method of ROIs on the road is proposed. The proposed method creates the saliency map to detect the candidate ROIs from the input image. And, the input image is segmented to obtain the ROIs boundary. Finally, selective visual attention regions are detected according to the presence or absence of a segmented region with saliency pixels. Experimental results from a variety of outdoor environmental conditions, the proposed method presented a fast object detection and a high detection rate.

Video based surveillance systems based on an active camera require a fast algorithm for real time detection and tracking of local motion in the presence of global motion. This paper presents a new fast and efficient motion detection and tracking algorithm using the displaced frame difference (DFD). In the Proposed algorithm, first, a Previous frame is adaptively selected according to the magnitude of object motion, and the global motion is estimated by using only a few confident matching blocks for a fast and accurate result. Then, a DFD is obtained between the current frame and the selected previous frame displaced by the global motion. Finally, a moving object is extracted from the noisy DFD by utilizing the correlation between the DFD and current frame. We implement this algorithm into an active camera system including a pan-tilt unit and a standard PC equipped with an AMD 800MHz processor. The system can perform the exhaustive search for a search range of 120, and achieve the processing speed of about 50 frames/sec for video sequences of 320$\times$240. Thereby, it provides satisfactory tracking results.

In this paper, the interesting moving objects tracking algorithm using color information on Multi-Video camera against variance of intensity, shape and background is proposed. Moving objects are detected by using difference image method and integral projection method to background image and objects image only with hue area, after converting RGB color coordination of image which is input from multi-video camera into HSI color coordination. Hue information of the detected moving area are segmented to 24 levels from $0^{\circ}$ to $360^{\circ}$. It is used to the feature parameter of the moving objects that are three segmented hue levels with the highest distribution and difference among three segmented hue levels. To examine propriety of the proposed method, human images with variance of intensity and shape and human images with variance of intensity, shape and background are targeted for moving objects. As surveillance results of the interesting human, hue distribution level variation of the detected interesting human at each camera is under 2 level, and it is confirmed that the interesting human is tracked and surveilled by using feature parameters at cameras, automatically.

A high speed context-free marker-controlled and minima imposition-free watershed transform is proposed for efficient multi-object detection and segmentation from a complex background. The context-free markers are extracted from a complex backgrounded multi-object image using a noise tolerant attention operator. These make marker-controlled watershed possible for the over-segmentation reduction without region merging. The proposed method presents a marker-constrained labeling that can speed up the segmentation of a marker-controlled watershed transform by eliminating the necessity of the minima imposition. Simulation results show that the proposed method can efficiently detects and segments multiple objects from a complex background while reducing over- segmentation and the computation time.

The detection of foreground objects in a projection display using color information can be hard due to changing lighting conditions and complex backgrounds. Accordingly, the current paper proposes a foreground object detection method using color information that is obtained from the input image to the Projector and an image captured by a camera above the projection display. After pixel correspondences between the two images are found by calibrating the geometry distortion and color distortion, the natural color variations are estimated for the projection display. Then, any pixel that has another variation not resulting from natural geometry or color distortion is considered a part of foreground objects, because a foreground object in a projection display changes the values of pixels. As shown by experimental results, the proposed foreground detection method is applicable to an interactive projection display system such as the DigitalDesk

An image edge has been utilized as preprocessing procedure in various field such as object detection, object recognition. there are Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, Laplacian as conventional edge detection methods. existing methods are implement is simple, but edge detection characteristics is insufficient in impulse noise area. Therefore, to compensate the defect of conventional methods, in this paper, an edge detection algorithm using modified mask is proposed.

In this paper, a decimation-in-time search direction algorithm for displacement prediction of moving object is proposed. The initialization of the proposed algorithm for moving direction prediction is performed by detecting moving objects at sequential frames and by obtaining a moving angle and a moving distance. A moving direction of the moving object at current frame is obtained by applying the decimation-in-time search direction mask. The decimation-in-tine search direction mask is that the moving object is detected by thinning out frames among the sequential frames, and the moving direction of the moving object is predicted by the search mask which is decided by obtaining the moving angle of the moving object in the 8 directions. to examine the propriety of the proposed algorithm, velocities of a driving car are measured and tracked, and to evaluate the efficiency, the proposed algorithm is compared to the full search algorithm. The evaluated results show that the number of displacement search times is reduced up to 91.8$\%$ on the average in the proposed algorithm, and the processing time of the tracking is 32.1ms on the average.
