Color therapy is a diagnostic method for treating psychological problems using unique vibration and frequency color. The color has strong subjective psychology, it can give psychological stabilization effect as a spring as a favorite color and stability become personally personal. Also, to give various influences on emotion, we can obtain information via brain wave to evaluate these emotions. In this research, before viewing two kinds of VR color images of red and blue, responding to the stress questionnaire(BEPSI-K) via a mobile terminal. At this time, we analyzed the real-time we used four emotional data measurable via brain waves and grasped the user's emotional state. In addition, the stress questionnaire was used to quantify the emotion degree, and comparative analysis was made on how the color image affects the change of emotions with 3D virtual reality.

In this paper, a new version of the ICM method(MICM, modified ICM) in which the contextual information is modelled by Markov random fields (MRF) is introduced. To extract the feature, a new local MRF model with a fitting block neighbourhood is proposed. This model selects contextual information not only from the relative intensity levels but also from the geometrically directional position of neighbouring cliques. Feature extraction depends on each block's contribution to the local variance. They discriminates it into several regions, for example context and background. Boundaries between these regions are also distinctive. The proposed algerian performs segmentation using directional block fitting procedure which confines merging to spatially adjacent elements and generates a partition such that pixels in unified cluster have a homogeneous intensity level. From experiment with ink rubbed copy images(Takbon, 拓本), this method is determined to be quite effective for feature identification. In particular, the new algorithm preserves the details of the images well without over- and under-smoothing problem occurring in general iterated conditional modes (ICM). And also, it may be noted that this method is applicable to the handwriting recognition.

This paper presents a new method for improving the quality of images corrupted by an external source that generates an attenuation and scattering of light like dust, water droplets and fog. Conventional defog methods typically encounter a distortion such that the restored image has low contrast and oversaturation of color in some regions because of the mis-estimated airlight and wrong media transmission. Therefore, in order to mitigate these problems, we propose a robust airlight selection method and local saturation evaluation method for estimating media transmission. The proposed method addresses the wrong media transmission and over-saturation problems caused by the mis-estimated airlight and thereby improves the restored image quality. The results of relevant experiments of the proposed method against conventional ones confirm the improved accuracy of atmospheric light estimation and the quality of restored images with regard to objective and subjective performance measures.

Diploic arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) or intraosseous dural AVFs are rare arteriovenous shunts. A diploic AVF is formed between a meningeal artery and an intraosseous diploic vein or the transosseous emissary vein, and the nidus is located exclusively within the bone. Currently, endovascular embolization with a transvenous approach is considered the treatment of choice for most dural AVFs. However, in the absence of an accessible venous channel, an alternate treatment approach should be considered. Herein, we report a case of a diploic AVF that was treated using embolization with transosseous direct cannulation.

The primary aim of the color constancy algorithm is to estimate illuminant chromaticity. There are various statistical-based, learning-based and combinational-based color constancy algorithms already exist. However, the statistical-based algorithms can only perform well on images that satisfy certain assumptions, learning-based methods are complex methods that require proper preprocessing and training data, and combinational-based methods depend on either pre-determined or dynamically varying weights, which are difficult to determine and prone to error. Therefore, this paper presents a new optimization based illuminant estimation method which is free from complex preprocessing and can estimate the illuminant under different environmental conditions. A strong color cast always has an odd standard deviation value in one of the RGB channels. Based on this observation, a cost function called the degree of illuminant tinge(DIT) is proposed to determine the quality of illuminant color-calibrated images. This DIT is formulated in such a way that the image scene under standard illuminant (d65) has lower DIT value compared to the same scene under different illuminant. Here, a swarm intelligence based particle swarm optimizer(PSO) is used to find the optimum illuminant of the given image that minimizes the degree of illuminant tinge. The proposed method is evaluated using real-world datasets and the experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, we propose the digital image enhancement method including local tone reproduction and preservation of the hue. In recent studies, an integrated multi-scale retinex (IMSR) has produced great naturalness in the resulting images through enhancement of visibility in dark area in input images. However, most methods, including IMSR, work in RGB color spaces. As such, this produces hue distortion from the perspective of the human visual system, that is, hue distortion in CIELAB color space. Accordingly, this paper proposes an tone reproduction and enhancement of saturation method in a device-independent color space, CIELAB, to preserve the hue and obtain a high contrast and naturalness. First, to achieve the desired objectives, the IMSR is then applied to only the $L^*$ values in CIELAB color space, normalization, and simple mapping function, thereby preserving the balance of the color components and enhancement of visibility. Then, saturation adjustment is performed by applying the ratio of the chroma variation at the sRGB gamut boundary according to the corrected luminance. In experiments, the proposed method is shown to improve the visibility in dark shadows and bright regions in the resulting images and reduce any color distortion then preference test are performed.

The still image and video of the same scene taken under various condition show different color, and the most important factor of capture condition is scene illuminant. The average color of contents is determined along the color temperature of scene illuminant, the method for conversion of scene illuminant chromaticity is needed. In this paper, the method for converting the scene illuminant chromaticity from arbitrary correlated color temperature to another arbitrary one is proposed. Conventional method only defines several set of color temperature conversion that can be evaluated as representative ones. The proposed method has the merit of calculating the conversion function directly from arbitrary color temperature to another one.

LCD 디바이스는 그 동작원리와 전기-광학적 특성에 의해 CRT와는 다른 감마곡선 특성을 갖고 있다. 대부분의 LCD디스플레이 디바이스들의 감마곡선은 CRT와는 달리 일관성을 갖지 않을 뿐 더러 흑백계조입력을 기준으로 하는 감마보정을 위해 RED, GREEN, BLUE 입력값을 세부적으로 조정할 때 각 계조입력에 대한 상관색온도가 일정한 값을 갖지 않아 LCD의 특성에 대한 모델링과 보정에 어려움이 있다. 또한, 애플사의 맥머신 그리고 실리콘 그래픽스사의 시스템과 같이 소정의 감마값을 전제로 해당 시스템의 내부참조테이블(internal look-up table)이 설계되어 각기 다른 시스템감마를 가지는 장치들에 의해 인코딩되어진 영상출력신호의 경우, 동일한 시스템을 갖추거나 시스템감마에 대한 역감마특성을 가진 디스플레이장치가 아닌 환경에서는 원본영상에 대한 왜곡은 더욱 커질 수 있다. 특히, 낮은 흑백계조입력에서의 색온도의 경우, 파장에 따라 서로 다른 감쇄성능을 가진 일반적인 컬러필터의 특성에 의한 누설광(light leakage)에 의해 결정되며, 이로 인해 색온도가 특정한 객을 띄는 현상이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 LCD디스플레이의 감마곡선을 여러 가지 시스템감마에 대응할 수 있는 감마곡선예 일치시키고, 계조선형성을 동시에 개선하기 위하여 입력 디지털값과 삼자극치간 관계를 나타내는 여러 가지 컬러모델링 방법 중에서 PLCC(Piecewise Linear Interpolation assuming Constant Chromaticity coordinates)모델을 적용하고, 목표로 하는 감마곡선과 색온도를 만족하기 위한 새로운 입력값을 구한 후 이를 컬러참조테이블(color look-up table)예 적용하는 방법과 저계조에서의 색온도를 목표색온도에 근접시키는 방법을 제안한다.
