Caption texts frequently inserted in a manufactured video image for helping an understanding of the TV audience. In the movies. replacement of the caption texts can be achieved without any loss of an original image, because the caption texts have their own track in the films. To replace the caption texts in early methods. the new texts have been inserted the caption area in the video images, which is filled a certain color for removing established caption texts. However, the use of these methods could be lost the original images in the caption area, so it is a Problematic method to the TV audience. In this Paper, we propose a new method for replacing the caption text after recovering original image in the caption area. In the experiments. the results in the complex images show some distortion after recovering original images, but most results show a good caption text with the recovered image. As such, this new method is effectively demonstrated to replace the caption texts in video images.

In this paper, we studied resolution to the FBP(Filtered Back-Propagation) tomographic image reconstruction algorithms. In order to analyze the resolution to the tomographic images, we derived ambiguity function to this algorithm which can be reconstructed from the improved FBP image reconstruction algorithm by using fixed coordinate system practically. Through simulation using this function, we determined the lateral and depth resolution quantitively and then analyzed respectively. Simulation results show that the lateral and depth resolution to the improved FBP image reconstruction algerian was determined $0.27\lambda\;and\;0.70\lambda$ at the 3dB, and also $0.89\lambda\;and\;0.96\lambda$ at the 6dB respectively. This results proved that improved FBP reconstruction algorithms for diffraction tomography of incident planar wave is useful to developed the tomographic image system, analyze the resolution to the tomographic images, we derived ambiguity function to this algerian which can be reconstructed from the improved FBP image reconstruction algorithm by using fixed coordinate system.

In this paper a method of reconstructing a desired image through the geometrical transformation and the interpolation techniques is presented by comparing different interpolation schemes. Several different interpolation schemes are compared with respect to the amount of error that is the difference between the original and the reverse-projective transformed images. Higher ordered B-spline interpolation turned to be superior to other techniques in reconstructing the image which is desired to be close to the unskewed image as much as possible. In the results, this paper demonstrates that the reverse projection using the higher ordered B-spline interpolation is superior to those conventional interpolation methods, linear, cubic spline for reconstructing image. In experiments, the error decreases as the order of B-spline increases. The proposed technique is useful for various practical and theoretical applications in the area of satellite, medical, and commercial image processing.

In this paper, we propose an image watermark method using multiple decoding keys. The advantages of this method are that the multiple original images are reconstructed by using multiple decoding keys in the same watermark image, and that the quality of reconstructed images is clearly enhanced based on the idea of Walsh code without any side lobe components in the decoding process. The zero-padded original images, multiplied with random-phase pattern to each other, are Fourier transformed. Encoded images are then obtained by taking the real-valued data from these Fourier transformed images. The embedding images are obtained by the product of independent Walsh codes, and these spreaded phase-encoded images which are multiplied with new random-phase images. Also we obtain the decoding keys by multiplying these random-phase images with the same Walsh code images used in the embedding images. A watermark image is then made from the linear superposition of the weighted embedding images and a cover image, which is multiplied with a new independent Walsh code. The original image is simply reconstructed by the inverse-Fourier transform of the despreaded image of the multiplication between the watermark image and the decoding key. Computer simulations demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed watermark method with multiple decoding keys and a good robustness to the external attacks such as cropping and compression.

This paper presents a stereo-based image compression and transmission system for 3D realistic television. In the proposed system, a disparity map is extracted from an input stereo image pair and the extracted disparity map and one of two input images are transmitted or stored at a local or remote site. However, correspondences can not be determined in occlusion areas. Thus, it is not easy to recover 3D information in such regions. In this paper, a reconstruction image compensation algorithm based on error block concealment and in-loop filtering is proposed to minimize the reconstruction error in generating stereo image pair. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is shown in term of objective accuracy of reconstruction image with several real stereo image pairs.

본 논문에서는 스마트폰을 이용한 3 차원 인체 복원 시스템을 제안한다. 모바일에서의 인체 복원은 디바이스상의 한계로 인해 기기와 서버 간에 인체 모델링 과정을 분할하여 처리한다. 분할된 인체모델링 과정은 복원 과정과 출력 과정으로 나뉘게 되며 안드로이드 기반의 스마트폰을 사용하여 취득한 영상을 서버로 전송하고 3 차원 인체 복원을 수행하게 된다. 3 차원 복원 알고리즘은 인체 변형 모델을 기반으로 3 차원 모델로부터 2 차원 영상으로의 투영을 통해 최적의 자세 및 체형 매개변수를 추정하고 복원된 결과는 모바일로 전송되어 복원된 모델링 결과를 출력한다.

SAII (synthetic aperture integral imaging) is a useful technique to record many multi view images of 3D objects by using a moving camera and to reconstruct 3D depth images from the recorded multiviews. This is largely composed of two processes. A pickup process provides elemental images of 3D objects and a reconstruction process generates 3D depth images computationally. In this paper, a signal model for SAII is presented. We defined the granular noise and analyzed its characteristics. Our signal model revealed that we could reduce the noise in the reconstructed images and increase the computational speed by reducing the shifting distance of a single camera.

홍채 인식은 동공과 흰자위 사이에 존재하는 도넛 모양의 홍채 패턴(Iris pattern)을 이용하여 자신인지 타인인지 판별하는 매우 신뢰도가 높은 생체인식기술 가운데 하나이다. 홍채 인식은 홍채 영상의 홍채 패턴으로부터 홍채 코드(Iris code)를 추출하여 인식하기 때문에 좋은 질의 홍채영상을 취득하는 것은 정확한 홍채 인식을 위해서 매우 중요하다. 이러한 홍채 영상의 질을 결정하는 중요한 요소 가운데 하나가 초점(focus)이다. 초점이 맞지 않아 흐려진(blurring) 영상은 홍채 인식에서 자신임에도 불구하고 타인으로 인식하는 FRR(false reject error)를 증가시킨다. 홍채 인식 시스템의 카메라는 고정 초점 방식과 가변 초점 방식이 있다. 고정 초점 방식은 초점렌즈가 고정되어 있어서 초점이 맞지 않는 영상을 취득할 경우 사용자에게 다시 요구하여 입력받도록 한다. 이는 사용자에게 불편을 초래한다. 가변 초점 방식은 사용자와의 거리를 측정하여 초점렌즈를 움직여서 초점이 잘 맞은 선명한 영상을 얻는다. 하지만, 초점렌즈를 움직이기 위해서 사용자와의 거리를 측정하는 센서와 초점렌즈를 움직이는 모터등과 같은 부가 장비가 필요하다. 따라서 카메라의 부피가 커지고, 가격이 상승하게 되는 문제점이 있다. 그리므로 본 논문은 고정 초점 카메라를 사용하여 부가 장비 없이 홍채 영상 복원 알고리즘을 사용하여 소프트웨어적으로 초점이 맞지 않아 흐려진 영상을 처리하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문은 초점값을 이용하여 열화(degradation)의 정도를 판단하였으며, 초점값(focus value)에 따라 점확산함수(point spread function)를 설계하여 홍채영상을 복원하였다.

초해상도 영상 복원은 저해상도 이미지를 고해상도 이미지로 변환하는 기술이다. 저해상도를 고해상도로 변환 시 정보가 없는 화소에 대한 정확한 화소값을 예측하는 보간법을 이용하게 되며 영상의 스케일링에 따른 앨리어싱 (aliasing) 이 발생하는 문제를 해결해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 Sobel 연산자를 통해 구한 에지 성분의 크기와 방향성을 이용하여, 초해상도 영상의 앨리어싱과 블러링(blurring) 을 줄이는 기법을 제안한다.
