In this paper, we desire to design real time image processing system to change a various chromaticity in HDTV that has 1344*806 resolution and requires a high-speed 65MHz operation. In order to change the image chromaticity, it is necessary to calculate the color temperature of the image. Conventional way of calculating the temperature uses 2-D algorithm [1] that requires bulky hardware. This paper propose a one-dimensional color-temperature conversion that reduces the hardware complexity while keeping the performance of the 2-D algorithm. The proposed method is realized by using the Xilinx Virtex FPGA XCV 2000E-6BG560.

This paper presents a sound into color signal conversion using a colored-hearing synesthesia. The aim of the present paper is to implement a real-time conversion system which focuses on both hearing and sight which account for a great part of bodily senses. The proposed method of the real-time conversion of color into sound, in this paper, was simple and intuitive where scale, octave and velocity were extracted from MIDI input signals, which were converted into hue, intensity and saturation, respectively, as basic elements of HSI color model. In experiments, we implemented both the hardware system for delivering MIDI signals to PC and the VC++ based software system for monitoring both input and output signals, so we made certain that the conversion was correctly performed by the proposed method.

The color correction is the important process of influencing on the picture quality of the 3D stereoscopic images. Existing colorcorrecting methods handle the processing intensifying a correspondence among a left and right image using a histogram based on any one side. In case of color correction based on a histogram, it is difficult to correct tone of image, because the color temperature is not converted enough. And in this paper, the color temperature correction and color consistency correction is proposed without using histogram. The proposed color correction method by color temperature gives 3 in CIE-${\Delta}E$ for each pixel on the images captured with same illuminants and the conventional gives similar results. For color consistency, the proposed gives 9 in CIE-${\Delta}E$ on the images captured with different illuminants while the conventional gives 18. The proposed method shows better results than the conventional in color consistency processing.

The iCAM06 has been used as an image appearance model for HDR image rendering. The iCAM06 goes through the color space conversions and scale conversions of the several steps to present HDR images. The dynamic range of an HDR image needs to be mapped on the range of output devices, which is called the tone mapping. However, tone compression process of the iCAM06 causes color distortion because of color-clipping and cross-stimulus. Therefore, we proposed that a color correction method in IPT space which compensates the color distortion in tone compression process. Through the experimental results, we conformed that proposed color correction method had better performance than the iCAM06 and enhanced models.

Spatial joins find pairs of objects that overlap with each other. In spatial joins using indexes, original-space indexes such as the R-tree are widely used. An original-space index is the one that indexes objects as represented in the original space. Since original-space indexes deal with sizes of objects, it is difficult to develop a formal algorithm without relying on heuristics. On the other hand, transform-space indexes, which transform objects in the original space into points in the transform space and index them, deal only with points but no sites. Thus, spatial join algorithms using these indexes are relatively simple and can be formally developed. However, the disadvantage of transform-space join algorithms is that they cannot be applied to original-space indexes such as the R-tree containing original-space objects. In this paper, we present a novel mechanism for achieving the best of these two types of algorithms. Specifically, we propose a new notion of the transform-space view and present the transform-space view join algorithm(TSVJ). A transform-space view is a virtual transform-space index based on an original-space index. It allows us to interpret on-the-fly a pre-built original-space index as a transform-space index without incurring any overhead and without actually modifying the structure of the original-space index or changing object representation. The experimental result shows that, compared to existing spatial join algorithms that use R-trees in the original space, the TSVJ improves the number of disk accesses by up to 43.1% The most important contribution of this paper is to show that we can use original-space indexes, such as the R-tree, in the transform space by interpreting them through the notion of the transform-space view. We believe that this new notion provides a framework for developing various new spatial query processing algorithms in the transform space.

기존의 무손실 컬러 이미지 압축 연구에는 하나의 색상 채널을 압축한 뒤에 이를 이용하여 나머지 색상 채널의 값을 예측하여 압축을 수행하는 방법이 많다. 또한, 각각의 채널을 독립적으로 압축하는 경우, 무손실 색상 변환(reversible color transform을 먼저 수행하는 것이 유리하다는 연구 결과도 있다. 본 논문에서는 무손실 컬러 이미지 압축을 위한 새로운 색상변환 방법을 제안한다. 새롭게 제안하는 색상 변환은 R, G, B 색공간에서 표현된 이미지를 YCuCv 색공간으로 변환하는데, 기존의 방법에 비해 채널 간 상관관계를 효과적으로 제거한다. 실험 결과, 제안하는 방법은 기존의 무손실 색상 변환 방법에 비해 평균 2.6% 엔트로피를 감소시키는 성능 향상을 보인다.

본 논문에서는 허프변환 및 HSV 색변환을 이용한 효율적인 차선검출의 최적화 알고리즘을 제안한다. 차선 검출의 고속화를 위해 차선과 카메라의 위치를 감안하여 고정된 관심영역(ROI_LB)을 정하고 검출 영역을 감소시킨다. 정해진 관심영역 내에서 허프변환을 적용해 차선을 검출하고 이를 위해 Sobel Mask와 Threshold를 사용한다. 또한, HSV 색 공간을 이용하여 황색 선과 백색 선을 구별해내며 차선 이동 시에 "MOVEMENT"이라는 문자열을, 중앙선을 넘어가면 "DANGEROUS"이라는 문자열을 출력한다. 제안하는 방법의 실험 결과는 복잡한 도로 동영상에서 효과적으로 차선을 인식하고 색 구별을 하였으며 제안 방법의 유효성을 검증하기 위해 다양한 실제 차선 패턴을 대상으로 한 실험결과를 제시한다.

다양해지는 디지털 이미지의 응용과 입력 장치의 보편화로 인해 정확한 컬러 표현의 필요성이 날로 높아지고 있다. 그러나 출력 장치인 모니터를 통해 디스플레이 되는 이미지들은 입력 및 출력장치들의 장치 의존적 컬러 신호의 차이와 입력 신호값에 대한 출력 신호 값의 비선형적인 변환으로 인해 원고와 최종 출력물의컬러에 색상의 차이가 발생한다. 정확한 색재현을 위해서는 올바른 색변환이 이뤄져야 하며 이를 위해서는 필요한 CMS의 도입이 무엇보다 중요하다. 그러나 현재 이에 대한 활용도는 매우 저조한 실정이다. 이에 본지에서는 얼마전 국내 최초 여성인쇄공학박사로 탄생된 조가람씨의 학위논문을 통해 입.출력 장치의 색변환 방법과 장치의 특성에 대해 살펴보는 자리를 마련했다. 다음은 조가람 씨가 박사학위 논문으로 제출한 '전자출판에서 입.출력 장치의 컬러 관리에 관한 연구'를 요약, 정리한 것으로 이번이 두번째이다.

The proposed method is demonstrated experimentally for color temperatures in the range of 3,000OK to 25,000OK with the Xilinx Virtex-E FPGA XCV2000E-6BG560.

This paper proposes a driving current control method for a back light unit (BLU), consisting of red, green, and blue (RGB) light-emitting diodes (LEDs), whereby an RGB optical sensor is used to check the output color stimulus variation to enable a time-stable color stimulus for light emission by the RGB LED BLU. First, to obtain the present color stimulus information of the RGB LED BLU, an RGB to XYZ transform matrix is derived to enable CIEXYZ values to be calculated for the RGB LED BLU from the output values of an RGB optical sensor. The elements of the RGB to XYZ transform matrix are polynomial coefficients resulting from a polynomial regression. Next, to obtain the proper duty control values for the current supplied to the RGB LEDs, an XYZ to Duty transform matrix is derived to calculate the duty control values for the RGB LEDs from the target CIEXYZ values. The data used to derive the XYZ to Duty transform matrix are the CIEXYZ values for the RGB LED BLU estimated from the output values of the RGB optical sensor and corresponding duty control values applied to the RGB LEDs for the present, first preceding, and second preceding sequential check points. With every fixed-interval check of the color stimulus of the RGB LED BLU, the XYZ to Duty transform matrix changes adaptively according to the present lighting condition of the RGB LED BLU, thereby allowing the RGB LED BLU to emit the target color stimulus in a time-stable format regardless of changes in the lighting condition of the RGB LEDs.
