본 논문은 영상복원을 역확산 과정으로 해석하여 복원된 영상을 역확산 방정식의 해로 구하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 역확산 과정은 물리적으로 불량위치(ill-posed)과정이기 때문에, 이를 정규화 해주어야 하는데 이를 위해서 역확산 과정을 고유함수(eigenfunction)들의 전개로 나타낸 후에 고유함수들의 계수들을 조작하였다. 본 논문에서는 계수들을 조작할 때 영상이 가지고 있는 주파수 특성을 고려하여 한계주파수(cut-off frequency)를 넘은 경우에 계수들을 시간과 주파수의 감소함수로 나타내어 불량위치문제를 해결하였다. 계수를 주파수에 대한 감소함수로 나타낸 것은 영상에 저주파 성분이 많고, 고주파 성분이 영상의 형성에 끼치는 영향이 상대적으로 적다는 영상의 특성을 고려한 것이다. 이러한 감소함수를 사용하였을 때 불량위치 문제를 해결할 수 있다는 것을 증명하였고, 실험적으로 양질의 영상을 산출함을 보였다.

본 논문에서는 영상기반 모델링에서 3차원의 기하학적 제약을 이용한 모델링을 다루고 있다. 기존에 이러한 연구가 많이 진행되어져 왔으나, 여기에서는 새로운 방법에 의한 모델링을 시도하였다. 이러한 접근방법은 이해하기가 쉽고, 편리하며, 간단한 모델링에 적용이 용이하다. 또한, 영상평면 정보와 3차원의 정보를 가지고 있기 때문에 기존의 3차원 복원 이론과 혼합하여 적용할 수 있다. 영상기반 모델링(IBM, Image Based Modeling)의 핵심은 2차원 영상에서 사라진 깊이 정보를 어떻게 찾는가에 있다. 기존에는 3차원 복원을 위하여 투영된 영상평면의 점을 이용하거나, 이미지 상에서의 소실점을 찾거나, 2차원의 벡터와 3차원의 공간 좌표의 특정한 평면에 놓여있는 벡터와의 관계를 이용하여 깊이 정보를 복원하였다. 이러한 접근 방법은 사용자가 선택한 2차원 좌표로부터 3차원 좌표를 구하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 방법과 다르게 3차원 원시 기하모델의 제약을 이용하여 사용자가 3차원 원시 기하모델을 2차원 영상에 투영하고, 그 정보를 이용하여 영상의 3차원 정보를 찾아 나가는 방법을 소개한다. 또한, 선형적인 최적화 기능을 넣어 관사 모델을 구하였다.

Researches of image-based 3D reconstruction have recently produced a number of good results, but they assumed that the accurate foreground to be reconstructed is already extracted from each input image. This paper proposes a novel approach to extract more accurate foregrounds by iteratively performing foreground extraction and 3D reconstruction in a manner similar to an EM algorithm on regions segmented in an initial stage, called segments. Here, the segments should preserve foreground boundaries to compensate for the boundary errors generated by visual hull, simple 3D reconstruction to minimize the computational time, and should also be composed of the small number of sets to minimize the user input. Therefore, we utilize image segmentation using the graph-cuts method, which minimizes energy function composed of data and smoothness terms, and the two methods are iteratively performed until the energy function is optimized. In the experiments, more accurate results of the foreground, especially in boundaries, were obtained, although the proposed method used a simple 3D reconstruction method.

Sparse view CT has been widely used to reduce radiation dose to patient in radiation therapy. In this work, we performed sinogram restoration from sparse sampling data by using inpainting method for simulation and experiment. Sinogram restoration was performed in accordance with sampling angle and restoration method, and their results were validated with root mean square error (RMSE) and image profiles. Simulation and experiment are designed to fan beam scan for various projection angles. Sparse data in sinogram were restored by using linear interpolation and inpainting method. Then, the restored sinogram was reconstructed with filtered backprojection (FBP) algorithm. The results showed that RMSE and image profiles were depended on the projection angles and restoration method. Based on the simulation and experiment, we found that inpainting method could be improved for sinogram restoration in comparison to linear interpolation method for estimating RMSE and image profiles.

A new approach is proposed for restoration of corrupted regions and segmentation in natural text images. The challenge is to fill in the corrupted regions on the basis of color feature analysis by second order symmetric stick tensor. It is show how feature analysis can benefit from analyzing features using tensor voting with chromatic and achromatic components. The proposed method is applied to text images corrupted by manifold types of various noises. Firstly, we decompose an image into chromatic and achromatic components to analyze images. Secondly, selected feature vectors are analyzed by second-order symmetric stick tensor. And tensors are redefined by voting information with neighbor voters, while restore the corrupted regions. Lastly, mode estimation and segmentation are performed by adaptive mean shift and separated clustering method respectively. This approach is automatically done, thereby allowing to easily fill-in corrupted regions containing completely different structures and surrounding backgrounds. Applications of proposed method include the restoration of damaged text images; removal of superimposed noises or streaks. We so can see that proposed approach is efficient and robust in terms of restoring and segmenting text images corrupted.

High resolution Pan-sharpening technique is becoming increasingly important in the field of remote sensing image analysis as an essential image processing to improve the spatial resolution of original multispectral image. The general scheme of pan-sharpening technique consists of upsampling process of multispectral image and high-pass detail injection process using the panchromatic image. The upsampling process, however, brings about image blurring, and this lead to spectral distortion in the pan-sharpening process. In order to solve this problem, this paper presents a new method that adopts image restoration techniques based on optimization theory in the pan-sharpening process, and evaluates its efficiency and application possibility. In order to evaluate the effect of image restoration techniques on the pansharpening process, the result obtained using the existing method that used bicubic interpolation were compared visually and quantitatively with the results obtained using image restoration techniques. The quantitative comparison was done using some spectral distortion measures for use to evaluate the quality of pan-sharpened image.

Lots of changes in Weolmido have occurred in the historical and cultural aspects owing w the geographical features. This study aims at restoring Weolmido to the past shape three-dimensionally and analyzing its changes. For achieving this goal, I made use of paper maps made in 1918, 1928, and 1969, a digital map produced in 2008, and aerial photos photographed in 1954. And I attempted to grasp the architectural shape and the topographical limn by using photos in those times and put them to practical use for restitution. Image restitution was carried out under the method of mapping and photogrammetry. As the result of restitution, I could restore each shape of Weolmido for those past times to the original condition three-dimensionally and catch its changes according to the difference of times.

Electrical impedance tomography is an imaging modality for determining the electrical properties inside a domain. Small currents are injected and the resulting voltages are measured through the electrodes. The internal electrical properties are reconstructed based on these voltage and current data. In this paper, a novel on-line Landweber algorithm was developed to fast estimate the resistivity distribution in the inverse calculation. Additionally, to enhance the reconstruction performance, a step-length was computed from the eigenvalue of the weighting matrix. The numerical experiments have been performed to evaluate the reconstruction performance of the proposed method.

In this paper, It propose a new restoration algorithm of high resolution, which is reconstructed to high resolution image using low resolution image informations. The proposed algorithm is constructed based on super resolution theory, it is consisted of progressive steps of the integration and construction. It reduced a lot of data-processing capacity and noise with integration through sub-pixel movement and wavelet basis through a higher resolution. As a result, it is shown that the main information is maintained and the error rate is improved. Using expansion fuzzy wavelet B-spline interpolation in stage of construction, it is confirmed that we can achieve smoothing image and good resolution without blur and block.
