In this study, a visual sensor system for weld seam tracking the I-butt weld joints in GMA welding was constructed. The sensor system consists of a CCD camera, a diode laser with a cylindrical lens and a band-pass-filter to overcome the degrading of image due to spatters and arc light. In order to obtain the enhanced image, quantitative relationship between laser intensity and iris number was investigated. Throughout the repeated experiments, the shutter speed was set at 1-milisecond for minimizing the effect of spatters on the image, and therefore most of the spatter trace in the image have been found to be reduced. Region of interest was defined from the entire image and gray level of searched laser line was compared to that of weld line. The differences between these gray levels lead to spot the position of weld joint using central difference method. The results showed that, as long as weld line was within $^\pm$15$^\circ$from the longitudinal straight fine, the system constructed in this study could track the weld line successful1y. Since the processing time reduced to 0.05 sec, it is expected that the developed method could be adopted to high speed welding such as laser welding.

In this paper, proposes the monitoring system it will be able to trace the executed of each threads in OpenMP based a parallel program. The monitoring system of existing in uses each threads label information and the analysis technique which uses the access-history was most. This has the problem which raises the time and space complexity which is caused by with massive information creation. In this paper, only the thread which includes interest information it creates tracking information with the target. And it provides information which is intuitive to the user it provides the visualization system for to a same time. The visualization model is composed the images-information of a base. This does to be it will be able to understandable a program execute situation using an image processing technique. Therefore, this paper provides the parallel program an effective debugging environment.

In this paper, we present an user interface which can show some 3D objects at various angles using tracked 3d head position and orientation. In implemented user interface, First, when user's head moves left/right (X-Axis) and up/down(Y-Axis), displayed objects are moved towards user's eyes using 3d head position. Second, when user's head rotate upon an X-Axis(pitch) or an Y-Axis(yaw), displayed objects are rotated by the same value as user's. The results of experiment from a variety of user's position and orientation show good accuracy and reactivity for 3d visualization.

인간의 안구는 색과 모양을 식별하는 데에 관여하는 원추 세포와 물체의 명암을 구분하는 간상 세포로 구성되어지는 시세포를 가진다. 망막 위에 분포되어 있는 시세포들은 시축을 중심으로 각기 다른 밀도로 분포 되어 있다. 특히 광축과 만나는 중심 지역은 Fovea라고 하는 직경 1mm 정도의 작은 우물을 이루고 있는데 원추 세포들이 고해상도로 분포되어 있고 시신경과 일대일로 연결되어 있어 시각 처리의 중심이 된다. 특히, 글자나 물체를 인식하기 위해 인간은 대상물을 응시하여 대상물의 영상이 Fovca영역에 맺히도록 추적 운동을 계속한다. 본 논문에서는 인간의 눈과 유사한 망막 모델의 하나인 Log-polar Image를 이용한 물체 인식을 위해 물체를 Log-polar Image Plane의 중심에 위치시키기 위한 모멘텀(Momentum)기반 정합 알고리즘(Alignment Algorithm)을 제시한다. 이는 눈동자 운동이 가능한 능동형 시각 장치의 Tracking 및 Pursuit 동작 중에 밭생하는 추적 오차를 보상함으로써 운동 중에도 효과적인 물체 인식이 가능하게 한다. 또한, 물체를 Log-polar Image Plane의 중심에 위치시킴으로써 물체의 위치 이동, 회전이동 그리고 크기 변화에 무관하게 물체를 인식한 수 있음을 제시한다.

In this paper, an investigation of weapon tracking performance is shown in regard to improving individual weapon performance of aiming objects. On the battlefield, a battle can last only a few hours, sometimes it can last several days until finished. In these long-lasting combats, a wide variety of factors will gradually lower the visual ability of soldiers. The experiments were focusing on enhancing the degraded aiming performance by applying visual tracking technology to roof mounted sights so as to track the movement of troops automatically. In order to select the optimal algorithm among the latest visual tracking techniques, performance of each algorithm was evaluated using the real combat images with characteristics of overlapping problems, camera's mobility, size changes, low contrast images, and illumination changes. The results show that VTD (Visual Tracking Decomposition)[2], IVT (Incremental learning for robust Visual Tracking)[7], and MIL (Multiple Instance Learning)[1] perform the best at accuracy, response speed, and total performance, respectively. The evaluation suggests that the roof mounted sights equipped with visual tracking technology are likely to improve the reduced aiming ability of forces.

In this paper, a video based ship detection method is proposed to monitor port efficiently. Visual saliency map algorithm and mean shift algorithm is applied to detect moving ships don't include background information which is difficult to track moving ships. It is easy to detect ships at the port using saliency map algorithm, because it is very effective to extract saliency object from background. To remove background information in the saliency region, image segmentation and clustering using mean shift algorithm is used. As results of detecting simulation with images of a camera installed at the harbor, it is shown that the proposed method is effective to detect ships.

Bimodal speech recognition systems have been proposed for enhancing recognition rate of ASR under noisy environments. Visual feature extraction is very important to develop these systems. To extract visual features, it is necessary to detect exact lip position. This paper proposed the method that detects a lip position using color similarity model and SVM. Face/Lip color distribution is teamed and the initial lip position is found by using that. The exact lip position is detected by scanning neighbor area with SVM. By experiments, it is shown that this method detects lip position exactly and fast.

In this study, students' multiplication expression method according to visual model was analyzed through paper test and eye tracking test. As a result of the paper-pencil test, students were presented with multiplication formula. In the group model (number of individual pieces in a group) ${\times}$ (number of group) in the array model (column) ${\times}$ (row), but in the array model, the proportion of students who answered the multiplication formula in the (row) ${\times}$ (column). From these results, we derived the appropriate model presentation method for multiplication instruction and the multiplication expression method for visual model.

In this paper, we describe gesture recognition algorithm using computer vision sensor and HMM. The automatic hand region extraction has been proposed for initializing the tracking of the tele-operation gestures. For this, distance informations(disparity map) as results of stereo matching of initial left and right images are employed to isolate the hand region from a scene. PDOE(positive difference of edges) feature images adapted here have been found to be robust against noise and background brightness. The KNU/KAERI(K/K) gesture instruction set is defined for tele-operation in atomic electric power stations. The composite recognition model constructed by concatenating three gesture instruction models including pre-orders, basic orders, and post-orders has been proposed and identified by discrete HMM. Our experimental results showed that consecutive orders composed of more than two ones are correctly recognized at the rate of above 97%.

Despite dynamical retinal image changes caused by pursuit eye movements, we usually perceive the stable spatial properties of the environment suite successfully Helmholtz and his followers have suggested that the visual system coordinates the retinal and extraretinal eye position information to represent the spatial properties of the environment. However. there have been a significant amount of researches showing that this kind of mechanism may not operate perfectly, and the pursuit eye movement employed in those researches were limited to conjugate eye movements. When an observer tracks an object moving away from the observer with his/her eyes. the two eyes rotate in opposite direction. and this kind of disjunctive eye movement may produce undesirable binocular disparities for the objects in the background. The present study examined whether the visual system compensated for the undesirable binocular disparities caused by disjunctive eye movements with extraretinal eye position information. Although the target object was presented frontoparellely to the subjects. the subjects reported that the object was slanted toward (or alway from) them in consistent with the undesirable binocular disparities produced by the disjunctive eye movements. These results imply that the visual system may not perfectly compensate for the undesirable binocular disparities with extraretinal eye position information.
