In this paper, we study two important topics in stereoscopic image communication system. One is a disparity estimation (DE) method to obtain the depth information of a scene at the transmitter and the other is an intermediate view reconstruction(IVR) method at the receiver. We propose a new DE method using an edge-preserving directional regularization technique. The proposed DE method smooths disparity vectors in smooth regions and preserves edges without over-smoothing problem. It provides better reconstructed stereoscopic images and improved coding efficiency than the existing regularization techniques. In addition. we propose a new IVR method using interpolation and extrapolation techniques. The proposed IVR method preserves edge regions as well as occlusion regions well. Thus. it gives better intermediate views than the existing IVR methods.

In general, image-based virtual environment is represented by panoramic images created by image mosaic algorithm. The cylindrical panoramic image supports the fixed-viewpoint navigation due to the constraints of construction. Shum proposed concentric mosaics to allow users to navigate freely within a circular area[10]. It is constructed by a sequence of images which is acquired from a regularly rotating camera. Concentric mosaics technique, proposed by Shum, is considered as 3D plenoptic function which is defined three parameters : distance, height and angle. In this paper, we suggest an effective method for creating concentric mosaics, in which we first align a set of strip images on the cylinder plane and stitch the aligned strips to build a panoramic image. The proposed method has no constraints such as regular panning motion of camera. Furthermore, our proposed method minimizes the use of interpolation image to create a novel view images from the concentric mosaics. It allows the result image on a novel view to have better quality with respect to the number of input images.

본 논문은 주파수 전이신호와 시간 전이 신호에 대해서 고조파 잡음 여기 방법과 시간 분리 여기 방법을 적용한 2.4 kbps 음성부호화 방법을 제안한다. 혼합 여기 부호화 방법은 주기 신호와 비 주기 신호를 효과적으로 표현하기 위해 하모닉 잡음 모델을 사용한다. 혼합신호에 대한 잡음 성분은 캡스트럴 분석 방법을 사용함으로써 추출되고, AR (Autoregressive Model) 모델에 의해 표현된다. 시간 전이구간 신호에서의 모호한 음성을 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 또 다른 방법이 제안된다. 제안된 시간 분리 방법은 시간 에너지 변화정도를 관찰함으로써 전이 시점을 감지하고 다른 시간 길이를 가지는 두 블록으로 분리하여 분석한다. 시간 분리 방법은 분석을 위한 비대칭 윈도우와 합성에서의 위상 합성 방법을 포함한다. 제안된 방법을 사용한 2.4 kbps 음성부호화 방법은 주관적 음질 평가에서 전이구간에서의 지각적 음질의 향상을 보여주었으며, 원본 음성 스펙트럼과의 고조파 비 매칭에 의한 윙윙거리는 기계적인 잡음을 감소시킨다.

This paper proposes a algorithm that generate the intermediate scene from the stereo image. This system based on mesh representation method, and segmented objects which ar calculated from triangles the pro proposed algorithm is composed of two steps. One is triangle grouping using gestalt theory, and the other is disparity estimation using average disparity of segmented object. We make an experiment on the proposed algorithm with some stereo images and obtain good quality disparity map for intermediate scenes.

ATSC 방식을 사용하는 DTV 수신기는 심볼 타이밍 동기를 맞추기 위해 77.3㎲마다 존재하는 세그먼트 싱크를 이용한 방법 또는 가드너 알고리즘을 사용한다. 이 중 가드너 알고리즘을 사용하는 방법은 다중 경로 채널 환경으로 인해 타이밍 옵셋이 발생한다. DTV 수신 채널 환경이 많은 수의 다중 경로 신호를 포함하고 있기 때문에 가드너 알고리즘을 사용한 DTV 수신기는 타이밍 옵셋이 발생한다. 이 타이밍 옵셋은 샘플링 순간을 잘못된 시점으로 옮기기 때문에 등화기의 성능이 열화된다. 다중 경로 채널 환경에서 등화기의 성능을 최적화하는 샘플링 순간은 주 경로 신호의 크기가 최대가 되는 점이다. 본 논문에서는 타이밍 옵셋 보상기를 사용하여 샘플링 순간을 주 경로 신호의 최대점으로 옮겨 타이밍 옵셋을 보상하고 등화기로 입력되도록 하여 DTV 수신 성능을 개선하였다. 타이밍 옵셋 보상기는 채널 상관기, 최대점 탐색기, 타이밍 보상용 보간 필터로 구성되어 있다. 타이밍 옵셋 보상기와 등화기를 연계 실험하여 성능 향상을 분석하였다.

본 논문은 관상동맥의 구조와 그 움직임을 사실적으로 표현하기 위한 매개변수적 모델링기법을 제안한다. 매개변수적 기법으로 생성된 모델은 메쉬 정점의 인덱스만으로 모델간 매칭을 위한 대응점을 찾을 수 있으므로, 시간대별로 달라지는 정점의 위치를 쉽게 추적함으로써 모델의 움직임을 표현할 수 있다. 그러나 이러한 기법으로 생성된 모델은 분리, 접합 등의 변형 조작이 어렵고, 트리형태 객체에 적용하기 힘든 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 극복하기 위해 분할된 혈관영역의 골격데이타에서 찾아낸 분기점을 중심으로 Generalized Cylinder를 이용하여 실린더 형태의 각 혈관세그먼트를 모델링 한 후, 분기영역을 3 개의 하프파이프(half pipe)와 2 개의 삼각형 패치로 연결하여 모델링하였다. 완성된 모델은 다시점 관상동맥데이터에 적용하였고, 각 시점에서 구해진 정점의 위치를 선형보간함으로써 부드러운 혈관의 움직임을 나타내었다.

One of the main research trends in image based modeling and rendering is how to implement plenoptic function. For this purpose, this paper proposes a novel approach based on a set of randomly placed panoramas. The proposed approach, first of all, adopts a simple computer vision technique to approximate omni-directional depth information of the surrounding scene, and then corrects/interpolates panorama images to generate an output image at a vantage viewpoint. Implementation results show that the proposed approach achieves smooth navigation at an interactive rate.

Moving objects are spatiotemporal data that change their location or shape continuously over time. Their location coordinates are periodically measured and stored i3l the application systems. The linear function is mainly used to estimate the location information that is not in the system at the query time point. However, a new method is needed to improve uncertainties of the location representation, because the location estimation by linear function induces the estimation error. This paper proposes an application method of the cubic spline interpolation in order to reduce deviation of the location estimation by linear function. First, we define location information of the moving object on the two-dimensional space. Next, we apply the cubic spline interpolation to location estimation of the proposed data model and describe algorithm of the estimation operation. Finally, the precision of this estimation operation model is experimented. The experimentation comes out more accurate results than the method by linear function.

Power analysis attack on low-power consumed security devices such as smart cards is very powerful, but it is required that the correlation between the measured power signal and the mid-term estimated signal should be consistent in a time instant while running encryption algorithm. The power signals measured from the security device applying the random clock do not match the timing point of analysis, therefore random clock is used as counter measures against power analysis attacks. This paper propose a new constant pitch based time alignment for power analysis with random clock power trace. The proposed method neutralize the effects of random clock used to counter measure by aligning the irregular power signals with the time location and size using the constant pitch. Finally, we apply the proposed one to AES algorithm within randomly clocked environments to evaluate our method.

This paper proposes a multi-view Wyner-Ziv Video coding scheme based on spatio-temporal adaptive estimation. The proposed algorithm is designed to search for a better estimated block with joint bi-directional motion estimation by introducing weights between temporal and spatial directions, and by classifying effectively the region of interest blocks, which is based on the edge detection and the synthesis, and by selecting the reference estimation block from the effective motion vector analysis. The proposed algorithm exploits the information of a single frame viewpoint and adjacent frame viewpoints, simultaneously and then generates adaptively side information in a variety of closure, and reflection regions to have a better performance. Through several simulations with multi-view video sequences, it is shown that the proposed algorithm performs visual quality improvement as well as bit-rate reduction, compared to the conventional methods.
