최근, 이미지 검색기법에서는 객체추출 방법이나 관심영역 추출방법에 관한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 그러나, 컬러 이미지의 경우 색상을 고려한 관심영역 특징추출 방법이나 인덱스 기법은 많이 연구되지 못하고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 컬러 이미지의 색상을 기반으로 하는 사분트리 분할 인덱스 기법을 제안한다. 사분트리 분할 인덱스 구조는 컬러 이미지의 공간 영역을 계층적인 영역으로 분할하여 각 공간 영역의 평균 색상 갓을 데이터베이스에 저장한다 저장되어진 각 영역의 평균 색상은 검색의 효율성을 높이기 위해 사분트리 인스턴스(Quad-tree distance)를 퍼지 값으로 계산하여 인덱스를 생성한다. 생성된 사분트리 분할 인덱스는 컬러 이미지의 관심영역(Region of Interest)의 색상을 검색할 때 유용하게 사용되며. 검색속도의 향상에 도움을 준다.

Face feature detection plays an important role in application such as automatic speechreading, human computer interface, face recognition, and face image database management. We proposed a automatic speechreading feature detection algorithm for color image using color information. Face feature pixels is represented for various value because of the luminance and chrominance in various color space. Face features are detected by amplifying, reducing the value and make a comparison between the represented image. The eye and nose position, inner boundary of lips and the outer line of the tooth is detected and show very encouraging result.

In this paper, after similarity of color information in above toro and geometry position analysis of important characteristic information in face and abstraction object that is inputted detects face area using comparison, describe about method to do user certification using ratio information and hair spring degree. Face abstraction algorithm that use color information has comparative advantages than face abstraction algorithm that use form information because have advantage that is not influenced facial degree or site etc. that tip. Because is based on color information, change of lighting or to keep correct performance because is sensitive about color such as background similar to complexion is difficult. Therefore, can be used more efficiently than method to use color information as that detect characteristic information of eye and lips etc. that is facial importance characteristic element except color information and similarity for each object achieves comparison. This paper proposes system that eye and mouth's similarity that calculate characteristic that is ratio red of each individual after divide face by each individual and is segmentalized giving weight in specification calculation recognize user confirming similarity through search. Could experiment method to propose and know that the awareness rate through analysis with the wave rises.

Emotion recognition is defined as that machines automatically recognize human emotions. Because the human emotions is very subjective, it is impossible to measure objectively. Therefore, the goal of emotion recognition is to obtain a measure that is agreed by as many people as possible. Emotion recognition in a image is implemented as the method that matches human emotions to the various features of the image. In the paper, we propose an emotion recognition system using color features of clothing image based on the Kobayashi's image scale. The proposed system stores colors of image scale into a database. And extracted major colors from a input clothing image are compared with those in the database. The proposed system can obtain three emotions maximally. In order to evaluate the system performance 70 observers are tested. The test results shows that recognized emotions of the proposed system are very similar to the observers emotions.

In this paper, we proposed a method of content-based image retrieval using variable region. Content-based image retrieval uses color histogram for the most part. But the existing color histogram methods have a disadvantage that it reduces accuracy because of quantization error and absence of spatial information. In order to overcome this, we convert color information to HSV space, quantize hue factor being pure color information, and calculate histogram of the factor. On the other hand, to solve the problem of the absence of spatial information, we select object region in consideration of color feature and region correlation. It maintains the size of region in the selected object region. But non-object region is integrated in one region. After of selection variable region, we retrieve using color feature. As the result of experimentation, the proposed method improves 10$\%$ in average of precision.

As interest on intelligent search engines increases, various studies have been conducted to extract and utilize the features related to products intelligencely. In particular, when users search for goods in e-commerce search engines, the 'color' of a product is an important feature that describes the product. Therefore, it is necessary to deal with the synonyms of color terms in order to produce accurate results to user's color-related queries. Previous studies have suggested dictionary-based approach to process synonyms for color features. However, the dictionary-based approach has a limitation that it cannot handle unregistered color-related terms in user queries. In order to overcome the limitation of the conventional methods, this research proposes a model which extracts RGB values from an internet search engine in real time, and outputs similar color names based on designated color information. At first, a color term dictionary was constructed which includes color names and R, G, B values of each color from Korean color standard digital palette program and the Wikipedia color list for the basic color search. The dictionary has been made more robust by adding 138 color names converted from English color names to foreign words in Korean, and with corresponding RGB values. Therefore, the fininal color dictionary includes a total of 671 color names and corresponding RGB values. The method proposed in this research starts by searching for a specific color which a user searched for. Then, the presence of the searched color in the built-in color dictionary is checked. If there exists the color in the dictionary, the RGB values of the color in the dictioanry are used as reference values of the retrieved color. If the searched color does not exist in the dictionary, the top-5 Google image search results of the searched color are crawled and average RGB values are extracted in certain middle area of each image. To extract the RGB values in images, a variety of different ways was attempted since there are limits to simply obtain the average of the RGB values of the center area of images. As a result, clustering RGB values in image's certain area and making average value of the cluster with the highest density as the reference values showed the best performance. Based on the reference RGB values of the searched color, the RGB values of all the colors in the color dictionary constructed aforetime are compared. Then a color list is created with colors within the range of ${\pm}50$ for each R value, G value, and B value. Finally, using the Euclidean distance between the above results and the reference RGB values of the searched color, the color with the highest similarity from up to five colors becomes the final outcome. In order to evaluate the usefulness of the proposed method, we performed an experiment. In the experiment, 300 color names and corresponding color RGB values by the questionnaires were obtained. They are used to compare the RGB values obtained from four different methods including the proposed method. The average euclidean distance of CIE-Lab using our method was about 13.85, which showed a relatively low distance compared to 3088 for the case using synonym dictionary only and 30.38 for the case using the dictionary with Korean synonym website WordNet. The case which didn't use clustering method of the proposed method showed 13.88 of average euclidean distance, which implies the DBSCAN clustering of the proposed method can reduce the Euclidean distance. This research suggests a new color synonym processing method based on RGB values that combines the dictionary method with the real time synonym processing method for new color names. This method enables to get rid of the limit of the dictionary-based approach which is a conventional synonym processing method. This research can contribute to improve the intelligence of e-commerce search systems especially on the color searching feature.

본 논문에서는 MFL(Magnetic flux leckage) 피그(PIG : Pipeline Inspection Gauge)에서 획득된 센서데이터의 분석을 위한 가시화 기법의 구현을 소개한다. MFL피그는 배관 내부에 삽입되어 배관의 결함이나 특징정보를 파악하기 위해 사용되는 장비로, 다양한 종류의 센서를 지니고 있으며, 각 센서에서 나온 값들은 피그에 탑재된 저장장치에 빠른 샘플링 속도로 저장된다. 분석가는 피그에 저장된 데이터를 가시화 도구를 사용하여, 피그에 샘플링 된 데이터를 통해 배관의 용접부위나 결함과 같은 특징정보를 찾아야 하고, 특징정보인 부분과 그렇지 않은 부분을 쉽게 구별 할 수 있어야 한다. 하지만 센서의 값에 따라 색상에 맵핑하여 보여주는 2차원 가시화 기법만으로는 효율적인 분석이 어렵다. 본 논문은 이를 극복하기 위하여, 센서 값에 맵핑되는 색상 스펙트럼 편집 및 기본 값 조정 기능을 제안한다.
