In this paper, we propose method of generation of depth map using vanishing line and texture. vanishing line is generated by parallel lines in image. For generate vanishing line, show boundary of particular angle through Gabor Filter and extract line through Hough Transform. Initial Depth Map is estimated based on vanisihng line and combine Relative Depth map that generated using Texture Cue. The proposed algorithm advanced due to combine Initial Depth Map and Relative Depth Map.

본 논문에서는 2D-to-3D 변환을 위한 기하구조 기반 깊이 추정에 적합한 소실점 검출 기법을 제안한다. 3D 공간에서 평행한 직선들은 2D 공간으로의 투시영상에서 시점에서 멀어질수록 간격이 좁아지고, 결국에는 한 점으로 수렴하게 된다. 수렴된 점을 소실점(vanishing point)이라 하고, 소실점을 거쳐 지나는 직선들을 소실선(vanishing lines)이라고 한다. 일반적으로, 인간은 소실선과 소실점을 추정한 2D 영상에서 소실점이 관찰자 시점으로부터 제일 먼 지점이라는 인식을 이용하여 깊이 정보를 인지할 수 있다. 전경영역과 배경영역 간의 경계에서는 수직성분을 가진 선들이 생성되어 올바른 소실점을 검출하는데 방해가 될 수 있다. 그렇기 때문에 본 논문에서는 수직성분을 가진 선들을 제거하여 소실점을 탐색하는 기법을 제안한다.

In this paper, we proposes method of vanishing point detection using orthogonality of vanishing point, under the "Manhattan World" assumption that the structure of the city is mostly grid and vanishing point are orthogonal to each other. The feature that the vanishing point are orthogonal to each other can be useful for inferring the missing point that are not detected among the three vanishing point, and prevent the vanishing point detected close to the other vanishing point. In this paper, we detect Vertical vanishing point through statistical approach and detect Horizontal and Front vanishing point through structural approach. Experimental results show that the proposed method improves the detection accuracy of the vanishing point compared with the existing method.

Conventional Augmented Reality has used data gloves or markers for smooth interaction between objects and background. This causes inconvenience of use and lower immersion. To build up immersion in Augmented Reality, additional input devices must be removed. This paper proposes a method to create virtual space coordinates for interaction without wearing additional input devices so as to improve immersion in Augmented Reality. The acquired image was projected to a two-dimensional space and vanishing lines were extracted to calculate the virtual space coordinates. Then the sizes of the inserted objects were varied in accordance with the size of the virtual coordinates area based on the image projected onto the two-dimensional coordinates. This resulted in improved immersion. This method can increase the efficiency of object creation by excluding the use of a 3D modeler for creation of three-dimensional objects.

This paper proposes an efficient method that helps a visually impaired person to detect a pavement borderline. A pedestrian is equipped with a camera so that the front view of a natural scene is captured. Our approach analyzes the captured image and detects the borderline of a pavement in a very robust manner. Our approach performs the task in two steps. In a first step, our approach detects a vanishing point and vanishing lines by applying an edge operator. The edge operator is designed to take a threshold value adaptively so that it can handle a dynamic environment robustly. The second step is to determine the borderlines of a pavement based on vanishing lines detected in the first step. It analyzes the vanishing lines to form VRays that confines the pavement only. The VRays segments out the pavement region in a radial manner. We compared our approach against Canny edge detector. Experimental results show that our approach detects borderlines of a pavement very accurately in various situations.

본 논문에서는 보안 시스템에서 사람 인식을 위한 중요한 단서 중의 하나인 사람의 키를 측정하는 알고리즘으로, 이미지 시퀀스에서 사람의 영역을 추출하고 기하학적 정보를 이용해 추출된 사람의 키를 측정하고자 한다. 이를 위해 단일 이동 물체 사람을 대상으로 하여 시퀀스 이미지에서 사람의 움직임 정보를 추출하고, 추출된 영역에서 수직 히스토그램 투영을 하여 사람의 중심선을 찾아 머리와 발의 좌표점을 추출한다. 추출된 좌표점들은 소실점과 소실선의 기하학적 해석과 미리 입력한 다른 물체의 기준높이를 가지고 실세계에서의 사람의 키를 측정하게 된다.

This paper proposes a method to detect vanishing points of an indoor scene using line segment classification. Two-stage vanishing points detection is carried out to detect vanishing point in indoor scene efficiently. In the first stage, the method examines whether the image composition is a one-point perspective projection or a two-point one. If it is a two-point perspective projection, a horizontal line through the detected vanishing point is found for line segment classification. In the second stage, the method detects two vanishing points exactly using line segment classification. The method is evaluated by synthetic images and an image DB. In the synthetic image which some noise is added in, vanishing point detection error is under 16 pixels until the percent of the noise to the image becomes 60%. Vanishing points detection ratio by A.Quattoni and A.Torralba's image DB is over 87%.

In monocular images that are used to determine the depth of the vanishing point, the buildings, roads and buildings, such as outdoor video or hallway with room inside for the interior structure, such as the vanishing point in the video is a very strong depth cue. Depth map using the vanishing point in the three-dimensional space, the two-dimensional imaging is used to restore the structure. But if there is a vanishing point vanishing point in the video also depends on the location of the relative depth of different ways to express that need. In this paper we present images of a vanishing point with respect to the improved depth-map was created. Proposed an area where the loss of seven points and areas defined as areas along the proposed direction of different depth.

The effects of both hyperthermia alone and X-ray irradiation combined with hyperthermia on rat testis have been investigated. The histological changes were observed on 15 and 30 days after treatment. There was no histological change of rat testis by hyperthermia alone. The earliest change by X-ray irradiation was the degeneration of the spermatogonia of the seminiferous tubule, which was appeared in 2 Gy group. Necrosis of the spermatogonia was severe in 6 Gy group and complete atrophy was developed in 8 Gy group. With increased dose of radiation, the degree of changes of tubules was increased. In combined group of X-ray irradiation and hyperthermia, the histological change of the seminiferous tubule was more severe than X-ray alone group. Necrosis and atrophy of the spermatogonia were appeared in 2 Gy and complete atrophy of spermatogonia was seen in 6 Gy group. Thermal enhancement ratio (calculated at the complete atrophy of the spermatogonia) was 1.3 in this experiment. There was no difference in observation time inverval between 15 and 30 days after each treatment in all groups.
