Additional high resolution satellite images, other period or site, are essential for efficient city modeling and analysis. However, the same ground objects have a radiometric inconsistency in different satellite images and it debase the quality of image processing and analysis. Moreover, in an urban area, buildings, trees, bridges, and other artificial objects cause shadow effects, which lower the performance of relative radiometric normalization. Therefore, in this study, we exclude shadow areas and suggest the selective histogram matching methods for image based application without supplementary digital elevation model or geometric informations of sun and sensor. We extract the shadow objects first using adjacency informations with the building edge buffer and spatial and spectral attributes derived from the image segmentation. And, Outlier objects like a asphalt roads are removed. Finally, selective histogram matching is performed from the shadow masked multi-temporal Quickbird-2 images.

본 논문에서는 투영된 모션과 히스토그램 인터섹션을 이용한 노이즈에 강건한 물체추적 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 방법은 템플릿 매칭, 물체의 경계선 재 검출, 물체의 움직임 정보 등을 사용하여 물체추적을 하였으나, 템플릿 매칭의 경우 많은 계산 시간을 요구하며 경계선을 재 검출하는 경우 윤곽선이 잘못 설정되는 경우가 있고 물체의 움직임 정보를 사용하는 경우에는 움직이는 카메라에서 움직이는 물체만을 추적하기가 쉽지 않은 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 투영된 모션과 질의 영상의 템플릿 마스크를 사용하여 물체의 이동, 회전과 스케일을 고려한 노이즈에 강건한 물체추적 기법을 제안한다. 질의영상은 영상분할 후 영역선택을 통하여 구성하고 물체의 인식은 색상을 이용한 히스토그램 인터섹션 기법을 사용한다. 물체의 이동은 가로 및 세로의 밝기 값을 1차원 신호로 투영하여 개략적인 움직임을 감지하고 이동에 대한 에러를 보정하며 회전과 스케일의 변화는 질의 영상의 템플릿 마스크를 이동하여 회전과 스케일에 맞게 변경하여 감지한다

Existing methods of object tracking use template matching, re-detection of object boundaries or motion information. The template matching method requires very long computation time. The re-detection of object boundaries may produce false edges. The method using motion information shows poor tracking performance in moving camera. In this paper, a robust object tracking algorithm is proposed, using projected motion and histogram intersection. The initial object image is constructed by selecting the regions of interest after image segmentation. From the selected object, the approximate displacement of the object is computed by using 1-dimensional intensity projection in horizontal and vortical direction. Based on the estimated displacement, various template masks are constructed for possible orientations and scales of the object. The best template is selected by using the modified histogram intersection method. The robustness of the proposed tracking algorithm has been verified by experimental results.

Pattern recognition is the study of how machines can observe the environment, learn to distinguish patterns of interest from their background, and make sound and reasonable decisions about the categories of the patterns. Color image consists of various color patterns. And most pattern recognition methods use the information of color which has been trained and extract the feature of the color. This thesis extracts adaptively specific color feature from images with several limited colors. Because the number of the color patterns is limited, the distribution of the color in the image is similar. But, when there are some noises and distortions in the image, its distribution can be various. Therefore we cannot extract specific color regions in the standard image that is well expressed in special color patterns to extract, and special color regions of the image to test. We suggest new method to reduce the error of recognition by extracting the specific color feature adaptively for images with the low distortion, and six test images with some degree of noises and distortion. We consequently found that proposed method shouws more accurate results than those of statistical pattern recognition.
