This study was done to evaluate the reliability of the digital color analysis system (ShadeScan, CYNOVAD, Montreal. Canada) for dentistry. Sixteen tooth models were made by injecting the A2 shade chemical cured resin for temporary crown into the impression acquired from 16 adults. Surfaces of the model teeth were polished with resin polishing cloth. The window of the ShadeScan handpiece was placed on the labial surface of tooth and tooth images were captured, and each tooth shade was analyzed with the ShadeScan software. Captured images were selected in groups, and compared one another. Two models were selected to evaluate repeatability of ShadeScan, and shade analysis was performed 10 times for each tooth. And, to ascertain the color difference of same shade code analyzed by ShadeScan, CIE $L^*a^*b^*$values of shade guide of Gradia Direct (GC, Tokyo, Japan) were measured on the white and black background using the Spectrolino (GretagMacbeth, USA), and Shade map of each shade guide was captured using the ShadeScan. There were no teeth that were analyzed as A2 shade and unique shade. And shade mapping analyses of the same tooth revealed similar shade and distribution except incisal third. Color difference (${\Delta}E^*$) among the Shade map which analyzed as same shade by ShadeScan were above 3. Within the limits of this study, digital color analysis instrument for dentistry has relatively high repeatability, but has controversial in accuracy.

The visual characteristics of the World Cup emblem play an important role in conveying culture and identity, highlighting the key elements of the Games, and strengthening the brand image. This study first investigated the visual elements and theoretical background of the emblem through previous studies. Second, the selection of symbolism, shape, and color was the subject of the study. Third, based on the shape-related theory based on the '100 National Cultural Symbols', the analysis was performed using the 'IRI Color Matching Image Scale' as a tool, and a final conclusion was drawn. The World Cup emblem uses a lot of ethnic and living symbols, and the living and ethnic symbols are expressed in a combination. In the beginning, there were many symmetric shapes, but after that it changed to an asymmetric shape. The curved expression form is more used than the straight expression form. And most of the color arrangement image scale distribution shows light, dynamic and modern color arrangement characteristics. In the future, the World Cup emblem design will continue to use national and living symbols. The shape of the emblem should use curves and asymmetric designs, be intuitive, and directly reflect the theme of the competition. In addition, the national flag color should be used as the main color, and other colors should be used as secondary colors. The combination of colors must match the light, dynamic and modern color characteristics of the IRI color scheme image scale.

본 논문에서는 곡물이나 광석 등의 원료들 중에서 양품 및 불량품을 검출하기 위해, Color CCD 카메라로 촬영한 원료영상에서 Mean-Shift 클러스터링 알고리즘과 단계별 병합 방법을 제안하고 있다. 먼저 원료 학습 영상에서 배경을 제거하고 영상 색 분포정도를 기준으로 모폴로지를 이용하여 영상의 전경맵을 얻는다. 전경맵 영상에 대해서 Mean-Shift 군집화 알고리즘을 적용하여 영상을 N개의 군집으로 나누고, 단계별로 위치 근접성, 색상대푯값 유사성을 비교하여 비슷한 군집끼리 통합한다. 이렇게 통합된 원료 객체는 영상채널마다의 연관관계를 반영할 수 있도록 RG/GB/BR의 2차원 컬러분포도로 표현한다. 원료 객체별로 변환된 2차원 컬러 분포도에서 분포의 주성분의 기울기와 타원들을 생성한다. 객체별 분포 타원은 테스트 원료 영상데이터에서 양품과 불량품을 검출하는 임계값이 된다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법으로 다양한 원료영상에 실험한 결과, 기존 선별방식에 비해 사용자의 인위적 조작이 적고 정확한 원료 선별 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

투명 박막 태양전지는 건물과 일체화 된 building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) 시스템에 적용되어 건물의 외장재로서 외관의 심미적 가치를 높일 수 있다. 현재 BIPV 모듈은 glass 타입의 형태가 시장을 주도할 것으로 예상되며[1], 건물의 외부 미관을 고려하여 투명 박막 태양전지에 색을 구현하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 투명 박막 태양전지에 적용하기 위한 목적으로 본 연구에서는 스핀코팅을 이용하여 표면 플라즈몬 효과가 큰 Cu 나노입자를 Si 웨이퍼와 유리기판 위에 각각 분포 시킨 후, 광학적 특성을 분석하였다. 스핀코팅의 속도(rpm)를 다양하게 변화 시킨 후 나노 입자의 분포를 관찰하였으며, 속도가 증가할수록 나노입자의 수는 감소함을 확인하였다. 또한 속도가 증가할수록 입자 사이의 거리는 멀어졌으며, 최저 속도 100 rpm에 비해 4000 rpm에서 스핀코팅 한 입자들은 응집이 상대적으로 되지 않았음을 관찰하였다. 속도가 증가할수록 입자가 기판 위에 적게 잔재하기 때문에 반사율과 투과율이 가시광선 영역에서 증가하였으며, 유리 기판에 구현한 색깔이 점차 옅어짐을 관찰하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 스핀코팅의 속도를 변화시킴으로써 나노입자의 분포 양상과 이에 따른 색상의 변화를 유발 할 수 있다는 사실을 확인하였다.

칼라가 물체 인식에 아주 효율적인 단서를 제공하지만 칼라 분포는 시청 조건과 카메라의 위치에 아주 큰 영향을 받는다. 생김새와 모양의 변화에 의한 칼라 분포 변화 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 밝기 값의 변화에 영향을 받지 않고, 색상(hue) 성분에 민감한 칼라 벡터각(color vector angle)을 이용하여 칼라 에지를 추출한 후, 영상의 화소들을 평탄 화소와 에지 화소로 구분하여 칼라 특징 값을 추출하였다. 에지 화소의 경우에는 에지 주위 칼라 쌍의 전체 분포를 HLS 색좌표계의 비균일 양자화를 통해 칼라 인접 히스토그램(color adjacency histogram)으로 표현하고, 평탄 화소의 경우에는 HLS 색좌표계의 비균일 양자화와 칼라 벡터각 균일 양자화를 통해 칼라 벡터각 히스토그램(color vector angle histogram)을 구성하여 공간적인 칼라분포를 표현하였다. 제안한 칼라 히스토그램을 이용하여 영상 검색에 적용하여 성능을 실험한 결과, 작은 빈의 수를 가지는 제안한 방법이 기존의 방법들보다 훨씬 효율적이고, 생김새와 모양의 변화에 아주 강건한 영상 검색이 가능하였고, 기존의 칼라 히스토그램 역투사 방법보다 훨씬 정확한 물체 위치 추정이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper is a study on an object extraction method which using color features of an object and background in the image. A human recognizes an object through the color difference of object and background in the image. So we must to emphasize the color's difference that apply to extraction result in this image. Therefore, we have converted to HSV color images which similar to human visual system from original RGB images, and have created two each other images that applied Median Filter and we merged two Median filtered images. And we have applied the Mean Shift algorithm which a data clustering method for clustering color features. Finally, we have normalized 3 image channels to 1 image channel for binarization process. And we have created object map through the binarization which using average value of whole pixels as a threshold. Then, have extracted major object from original image use that object map.

In order to effectively communicate the fragrances of commercial perfumes to consumers, it is important to apply congruent colors to their bottles and packaging. This research investigated the cross-modal associations between colors and fragrances through two experiments. In the first experiment, bottle colors of more than 200 popular perfumes in the market were analyzed. Distinguishable color design patterns of the bottles were revealed in accordance with their fragrance types. The second experiment expanded the use of color-odor matching task to a test population of Korean participants. Participants selected colors evoked by fragrances of three test perfumes in a blind setting. These three perfumes had characteristic hues and their associated hues were similar with the real colors of their bottles. In addition, there were significant variations in color tone across fragrance notes, viz. the top notes, middle notes, and base notes. The results of the two experiments suggest the existence of robust cross-modal associations between particular colors and fragrances in commercial perfumery.

The development of multimedia devices with built-in cameras such as smart devices and various studies using video-related multimedia data such as images and video obtained from the devices have been actively conducted. These studies deal with image data. An image can be defined as a set of color information obtained from a digital sensor called a pixel. Images contain various cognitive information such as color, lighting, objects and so on. In order to extract or process such information, it is necessary to clearly understand the composition of colors. In this paper, we introduce 3-dimensional information visualization method which can effectively express the results of image processing together with color distribution. This study visualizes the characteristics of image related multimedia data as well as the characteristics of various analytical data derived from it, so that researchers can transmit the image information more clearly and effectively.

A GUI (graphical user interface) has been a dominant platform for HCI (human computer interaction). A GUI - based interaction has made computers simpler and easier to use. The GUI - based interaction, however, does not easily support the range of interaction necessary to meet users' needs that are natural. intuitive, and adaptive. In this paper, the modified BMA (block matching algorithm) is proposed to track a hand in a sequence of an image and to recognize it in each video frame in order to replace a mouse with a pointing device for a virtual reality. The HCI system with 30 frames per second is realized in this paper. The modified BMA is proposed to estimate a position of the hand and segmentation with an orientation of motion and a color distribution of the hand region for real - time processing. The experimental result shows that the modified BMA with the YCbCr (luminance Y, component blue, component red) color coordinate guarantees the real - time processing and the recognition rate. The hand tracking by the modified BMA can be applied to a virtual reclity or a game or an HCI system for the disable.
