The application fields of the image processing get gradually diversified as the society develops to the highly leveled digital information era and is highlighted as an important field. Especially, many studies on image restoration, a key technology in the image processing have been carried out. This paper proposed a filter which applies the directivity and spatial weighting based on the degraded pixels in order to restore the image degraded in the high density salt and pepper noise environment. In addition, this paper compared this filter with the current methods for objective judgment using PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) as a criterion of judgment.

금속을 용해 응고시킬 때 생성되는 소위, 주조 결함이나 소결금속 내의 기공은 재료의 성능이나강도를 현저하게 낮추는 결함으로서 예전부터 기피되어 왔다. 또한, 재료공정에있어서도 여하의 기공이나 기포가 없는 치밀한 고강도 및 고기능성 재료를 개발하는 것에 최대한의 주의와 관심을 기울여 왔다. 그렇지만, 우리가 자연계의 천연물이나 인공물을 둘러보면 그 대부분이다공질임을 쉽게 눈치챌 수 있다. 예를 들어 목재, 지엽등의 생물을 시작해서 콘크리트 등의 인공물, 우리 체내의 뼈도 전형적인 다공질구조로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 구조로부터 재료의 재질제어 이외에 구조제어라는 새로운 어프로치를 고려할 수 있고, 최근 들어, 금속재료에 있어서도 이러한 다공질구조에 관한 연구가활성화되어 충격흡수재, 생체재료, 베어링재료 등의 다양한응용이 전개되고 있다. 특히, 원주상의 방향성 기공을 갖는 로터스금속은 기존의 복잡한구조의 다공질금속보다 뛰어난 기계적 성질을 갖는다. 이러한 다공질금속은 일방향응고할 때 생성하는 과포화가스원자를 석출시켜 기공을 일방향으로 성장시킨다. 즉, 융점에서의 고상과 액상의 가스 용해도 차를 이용하는 것으로서 응고시에 고용할 수 없는 가스원자가 기공을 형성한다. 이와같이 제조한 방향성 다공질금속은 BT (인플란트, 생체적합성, 저탄성, 경량), ST (초음속기엔진부품, 경량), IT (고성능수냉모듈), ET(고온촉매, 필터)의 분야로의 응용이 기대된다. 본 강연에서는 방향성 다공질금속의 제조법, 특성 및 응용을 포함하여그 동안의 연구성과 및 앞으로의 과제 등을 소개하고자 한다.

As a society has Progressed rapidly toward a highly advanced digital information age, a multimedia communication service for acquisition, transmission and storage of image data as well as voice has being commercialized externally and internally. However, in the process of digitalization or transmission of data, noise is generated by several causes, and researches for eliminating those noises have been continued until now. The mean filter is useful method to remove AWGN (additive white gaussian noise) from degraded image and has excellent low-frequency properties. However, it brings about degradation of high-frequency properties in image. So in this paper we removed noise with mean filters added directional information and minimized degradation of high-frequency properties.

본 연구는 협업 기반 필터링을 이용하여 반려동물 동반 가능 장소를 추천해주는 시스템을 제안한다. 반려동물 양육 인구가 늘고 있는 현재에 반해 반려동물을 대상으로 하는 추천 시스템은 발전이 더딘 상황이다. 반려동물은 다양한 크기와 종류를 갖고 있기 때문에 기존의 인간 기준의 추천 시스템과는 다르게 접근해야 할 필요성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 반려동물의 다양한 특성을 고려한 장소를 추천해주기 위해 협업 기반 필터링을 활용하였다. 사용자 데이터의 수가 늘어나면 결과의 정확도를 높여주지만, 사용자 간의 유사도를 구하는 비용이 증가한다. 이러한 장단점을 고려하여 '아이템 기반 협업 필터링' 과 '사용자 기반 협업 필터링' 방법을 적절히 사용하는 방향을 제안한다.

Road identification is the important task for extracting a road region from the high-resolution satellite images, when the road candidates is extracted by the pre-processing tasks using a binarization, noise removal, and color processing. Therefore, we propose a noble approach for identifying a road using the orientation-selective spatial filters, which is motivated by a computational model of neuron cells found in the primary visual cortex. In our approach, after the neuron cell typed spatial filters is applied to the isolated connected-labeling road candidate regions, proposed method identifies the region of perceiving the strong orientation feature with the real road region. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, the accuracy&error ratio in the confusion matrix was measured from road candidates including road and non-road class. As a result, the proposed method shows the more than 92% accuracy.

An NPC grouping method is proposed for various 3D games depending on their characteristics. Immovable objects tend to have particular orientation features in their Gabor filtering results whereas the movable objects controlled by AI appearing as a human or an animal do not. First of all, We analyzed directional and frequency domain features in the NPC object and configured them as 24 Gabor filter banks. Then, 24-dimensional feature vectors according to the scale and direction of the filter are calculated. Each extracted vector represents the energy of a certain direction. This energy indicates the particular direction strength of the object texture. Thus, using this property, NPCs could be grouped as artificial objects and natural objects effectively and it draws the game more speed and strategic actions as a result.

These days, many image processing techniques have been studied for effective image compression. Among those, The 2D image filtering is widely used for 2D image processing. The 2D image filtering can be implemented by performing the 1D linear filter separately in the horizontal and vertical direction. Efficiency of image compression depends on what filtering method is used. Generally, circular convolution is widely used in 2D image filtering for image processing. However it doesn't consider correlations at the boundary region of image, therefore effective filtering can not be performed. To solve this problem. I proposed new convolution technique using loop convolution which satisfies the 'alias-free' and 'error-free' requirement in the reconstructed image. This method could provide more effective compression performance than former methods because it used highly-correlated data when performed at the boundary region. In this paper, Sub-band Coding(SBC) was adopted to analyze efficiency of proposed filtering technique, and the simulator developed by Java-based language was used to examine the performance of proposed method.

We propose a technique to protect digital images using the magnitude and orientation of their edges. The proposed technique uses the content-associated copyright message generated by combining the original copyright message with the magnitude and orientation of some edges of a digital image. It enables the distribution of the original copyright message without any distortion of original digital images by avoiding embedment of the original copyright message into images. In addition to the advantage in the image quality, it also has a relatively low computational complexity by using simple operations to generate the content-associated copyright message. To verify the proposed technique, we performed experiments on its robustness to the external attacks such as histogram equalization, median filtering, rotation, and cropping. Experimental results on restoring the copyright message from images distorted by attacks show that more than 90%, on the average, can be recovered.

In this paper, we propose a novel method for eye detection using two texture filters considering textural and structural characteristics of eye regions. The human eyes have two characteristics: 1) the eyes are horizontally long and 2) the pupas are of circular shapes. By considering these two characteristics of human eyes, two texture filters are utilized for the eye detection. One is Gabor filter for detecting eye shapes in horizontal direction. The other is ART descriptor for detecting pupils of circular shape. In order to effectively detect eye regions, the proposed method consists of four steps. The first step is to extract facial regions using AdaBoost method. The second step is to normalize the illumination by considering local information. The third step is to estimate candidate regions for eyes, by merging the results from two texture filters. The final step is to locate exact eye regions by using geometric information of the face. As experimental results, the performance of the proposed method has been improved by 2.9~4.4%, compared to the existing methods.
