As the number of digital images available to users is exponentially growing due to the rapid development of digital technology, content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has been one of the most active research areas. A variety of image retrieval methods have been proposed, where, given an input query image, the images that are similar to the input are retrieved from an image database based on low-level features such as colors and textures. However, most of the existing retrieval methods did not consider the case when an input query image is a part of a whole image in the database due to the high complexity involved in partial matching. In this paper, we present an efficient method for partial image matching by using the histogram distribution relationships between query image and whole image. The proposed approach consists of two steps: the first step prunes the search space and the second step performs block-based retrieval using partial image matching to rank images in candidate set. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed algorithm after assuming that the response tune of the system is very high while retrieving only by using partial image matching without Pruning the search space.

In recent years, the interests and needs of the Pedestrian Protection System (PPS), which is mounted on the vehicle for the purpose of traffic safety improvement is increasing. In this paper, we propose a pedestrian candidate window extraction and unit cell histogram based HOG descriptor calculation methods. At pedestrian detection candidate windows extraction stage, the bright ratio of pedestrian and its circumference region, vertical edge projection, edge factor, and PCA reconstruction image are used. Dalal's HOG requires pixel based histogram calculation by Gaussian weights and trilinear interpolation on overlapping blocks, But our method performs Gaussian down-weight and computes histogram on a per-cell basis, and then the histogram is combined with the adjacent cell, so our method can be calculated faster than Dalal's method. Our PCA reconstruction error based pedestrian detection candidate window extraction method efficiently classifies background based on the difference between pedestrian's head and shoulder area. The proposed method improves detection speed compared to the conventional HOG just using image without any prior information from camera calibration or depth map obtained from stereo cameras.

ATCoP(Abnormal traffic controller based on prediction) is presented to securely support reliable Internet service and to guarantee network survivability, which is deployed in Internet access point. ATCoP is a method to control abnormal traffic that is entering into the network When unknown attack generates excessive traffic, service survivability is guaranteed by giving the priority to normal traffic than abnormal traffic, that is reserving some channels for normal traffic. If the reserved channel number increases, abnormal traffic has lower quality service by ATCoP system and then its service survivability becomes worse. As an analytic result, the proposed scheme maintains the blocking probability of normal traffic on the predefined level in the specific interval of input traffic.

자연재해의 예방에 대한 인식이 화두가 되면서 최근 재해 경보 시스템을 다루는 새로운 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 제안하는 알고리듬은 영상을 통해 얻은 정보를 이용하여 산사태를 초기에 검출하는 방법이다. 기존의 검출 방법은 사람이 직접 모니터링을 해야 하기 때문에 많은 인력과 시간을 필요로 하고 접근성이나 비용문제 등의 각종 제약이 따른다. 따라서 효율적인 산사태 감지를 위해 산사태 발생 가능 지역에 비디오 기반의 감지 시스템을 통해서 자동으로 검출하는 시스템이 필요하다. 감지 시스템에서는 신뢰성 있는 재난영역의 검출이 매우 중요하다고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구는 산사태를 검출하기 위하여 먼저 블록단위의 영역 움직임 검출을 하여, 움직임 맵을 만들고 일정한 시간 간격으로 반복적으로 변하는 영역의 움직임 맵을 기록한다. 또한 움직임 방향뿐만 아니라 발생 순서를 기록하여 더욱더 정확한 움직임을 판단할 수 있다. 제안된 알고리듬은 비디오영상 실험을 통해 탐지영역의 산사태 검출이 잘 이루어짐을 확인하였다.

In the paper, we propose an algorithm that significantly reduces unnecessary computations, while keeping prediction quality almost similar to that of the full search. In the proposed algorithm, we can reduces only unnecessary computations efficiently by taking different search patterns and error criteria of block matching according to distribution probability of motion vectors. Our algorithm takes only 20~30% in computational amount and has decreased prediction quality about 0~0.02dB compared with the fast full search of the H.264 reference software. Our algorithm will be useful to real-time video coding applications using MPEG-2/4 AVC standards.

In this paper, two-way amplify-and-forward relay methods are investigated where two terminals and one relay node are equipped with multiple antennas. In two-way relay channels, it is assumed that one terminal can eliminate its own self-interference but the other cannot. For this channel, we first maximize the sum-rate performance by employing an iterative gradient descent (GD) algorithm. Then, a simple singular value decomposition (SVD) based block triangularization is developed to null the self-interference. Simulation results show the proposed methods outperform the conventional schemes for various environments.

The wavelet transform providing both of the frequency and spatial information of an image is proved to be very much effective for the compression of images, and recently lot of studies on coding algorithms for images decomposed by the wavelet transform together with the multi-resolution theory are going on. This paper proposes a quadtree decomposition method of image compression applied to the images decomposed by wavelet transform by using the correlations between pixels and '0'data grouping. Since the coefficients obtained by the wavelet transform have high correlations between scales and high concentrations, the quadtree method can reduce the data quantity effectively. the experimental infrared image with 256${\times}$256 size and 8〔bit〕, was used to compare the performances of the existing and the proposed compression methods.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to detect and track the human face with a GPU-based high speed. Basically the detection algorithm uses the existing Adaboost algorithm but the search area is dramatically reduced by detecting movement and skin color region. Differently from detection process, tracking algorithm uses only depth information. Basically it uses a template matching method such that it searches a matched block to the template. Also, In order to fast track the face, it was computed in parallel using GPU about the template matching. Experimental results show that the GPU speed when compared with the CPU has been increased to up to 49 times.

본 논문에서는 동영상 화질을 최대한 유지하면서 압축 비트량 절감을 효율적으로 이루기 위해 복수개의 영상처리 필터를 영상의 블록에 따라 선택적으로 적용하고, 영상처리 필터의 선택을 위한 MSSIM 및 KL Divergence 기반의 영상 처리 평가 함수를 제안한다. 영상압축의 경우, 영상 내 특징에 따라 화질과 비트량 절감의 특성이 다르며, 이에 따라 단일 목적을 가진 영상처리 필터로서는 화질을 유지하면서, 비트량 절감이라는 목적을 동시에 만족 시키기 어렵다. 이에 따라, 주관적 화질을 최대한 유지하면서, 비트량을 절감시키기 위해 주관적 화질 측도로서 MSSSIM(Multi-scale Structural Similarity)를 사용하고 비트량 측도를 위하여 KL Divergence 를 사용함과 동시에 두 가지 척도를 하나의 척도로 결합시키기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 아울러 제안한 측도를 사용하여 서로 다른 특성을 가진 영상처리 필터를 전처리 필터로 사용할 경우, 주관적 화질을 최대한 유지하면서 비트량 절감을 유지할 수 있도록 동영상 압축이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

Teaching and learning research is essential to prepare for the era of the 4th industrial revolution. We must strengthen the creative educational capabilities of prospective teachers by improving the curriculum and teaching-learning model of teacher training colleges. Future education should foster creative thinking based on communication and collaboration. In this study, we improved the future teaching and learning model and applied it to actual classes. In addition, we verified the effectiveness by conducting pre- and post-surveys on the capabilities of future creative teachers. The survey consists of common satisfaction questions and questions about future creative teacher capabilities. As a result of the analysis, we confirmed that the capacity of future creative teachers increased.
