본 논문에서는 획득 영상에서 k-평균 알고리즘에 의한 무게중심을 이용하여 이동 물체를 검출하고 추적하는 방법을 제안하였다. 이동 물체의 검출은 획득 영상에 대하여 차영상 후 에지 검출에 의해 수행된다. 제안한 검출 방법은 빛의 밝기와 각도에 의해 발생된 그림자 등의 변형을 제거하고, 이동 물체만을 검출할 수 있어, 빛에 영향을 받은 영상에 대해서도 이동 물체를 양호하게 검출할 수 있다. 물체 추적은 검출된 이동 물체에 대하여 k-평균 알고리즘으로 세 개의 물체 무게중심을 구하고, 무게중심 부근의 화소 평균값과 무게중심간의 거리를 구한다. 다음 프레임들에 대하여 탐색영역의 화소 평균값에 의해 후보 무게중심을 구하고, 물체 무게중심과 구한 후보 무게중심들의 표준편차와 무게중심간의 거리 차를 이용하여 이동 물체를 추적한다. 그 결과, 이동 물체의 추적 속도를 개선시켰고, 물체 추적 오차율을 줄였다.

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm for real-time lane detecting against luminance variation using morphological image processing and edge-based region segmentation. In order to apply the most appropriate threshold value, the adaptive threshold was used in every frame, and perspective transform was applied to correct image distortion. After that, we designated ROI for detecting the only lane and established standard to limit region of ROI. We compared performance about the accuracy and speed when we used morphological method and do not used. Experimental result showed that the proposed algorithm improved the accuracy to 98.8% of detection rate and speed of 36.72ms per frame with the morphological method.

In this paper, a weighted value wrinkle detection method is suggested based on the analysis on the entire facial features such as face contour, face size, eyes and ears. Firstly, the main facial elements are detected with AAM method entirely from the input screen images. Such elements are mainly composed of shape-based and appearance methods. These are used for learning the facial model and for matching the face from new screen images based on the learned models. Secondly, the face and background are separated in the screen image. Four points with the biggest possibilities for wrinkling are selected from the face and high wrinkle weighted values are assigned to them. Finally, the wrinkles are detected by applying Canny edge algorithm for the interested points of weighted value. The suggested algorithm adopts various screen images for experiment. The experiments display the excellent results of face and wrinkle detection in the most of the screen images.

In this paper, a novel method of minimizing the phase error is proposed. A DP-PLL system using this method is implemented and its performacnce is investigated, too. The DP-PLL system detects the phase error between reference clock and locally generated system clock. The phase difference is then reported as a PEV(Phase Error Variation), which is propoced from the delayted n-tap rising dege clock circuit with 5ns resolution in the phase detector. The algorithm is used to track the optimal DAC coefficients, which are adjusted from sample to sample in such a way as to minimize the PEV. The proposed method is found to have remarkable good potential for fast and accurate phase error tracking characteristic. The algorithm shows good performance to supress the low frequency jitter.-ending points, we design new basis functions based on the Legendre polynomial and then transform the error signals with them. When applied to synthetic images such as circles, ellipses and etc., the proposed method provides, in overall, outstanding results in respect to the transform coding gain compared with DCT and DST. And in the case when applied to natural images, the proposed method gives better image quality over DCT and comparable results with DST.

Generally, a semiconductor chip measured with a few micro units is captured by line scan camera for higher inspection accuracy. However, the faulty inspection requires an exact boundary detection algorithm, because it is very sensitive to scan speed and lighting conditions. In this paper we propose boundary detection with subpixel edge detection in order to increase the accuracy of bump faulty detection on chips. The bump edge is detected by first derivative to four directions from bump center point and the exact edge positions are searched by the subpixel method. Also, the exact bump boundary to calculate the actual bump size is computed by LSM(Least Squares Method) to minimize errors since the bump size is varied such as bump protrusion, bump bridge, and bump discoloration. Experimental results exhibit that the proposed algorithm shows large improvement comparable to the other conventional boundary detection algorithms.

Event detection and recognition is an active and challenging topic recent in Computer Vision. This paper describes a new method for recognizing events caused by human motion from video sequences in an office environment. The proposed approach analyzes human motions using Motion History Image (MHI) sequences, and is invariant to body shapes. types or colors of clothes and positions of target objects. The proposed method has two advantages; one is thant the proposed method is less sensitive to illumination changes comparing with the method using color information of objects of interest, and the other is scale invariance comparing with the method using a prior knowledge like appearances or shapes of objects of interest. Combined with edge detection, geometrical characteristics of the human shape in the MHI sequences are considered as the features. An advantage of the proposed method is that the event detection framework is easy to extend by inserting the descriptions of events. In addition, the proposed method is the core technology for event detection systems based on context-aware computing as well as surveillance systems based on computer vision techniques.

본 논문에서는 컬러 NTGST (noise-tolerant generalized symmetry transform)를 기초로 하여 부분적인 조명 변화뿐 아니라 그림자 및 잡음이 있는 환경에서도 효과적으로 코너만을 검출할 수 있는 코너 검출자를 제안하였다. 제안한 코너 검출자는 잡음에 둔감한 NTGST를 기초로 하여 코너에 가까울수록, 두 직선 에지가 이루는 각이 작을수록 큰 값이 코너에 누적되도록 하여 코너의 정확한 위치를 검출할 수 있도록 하였다 특히 조명 변화에 둔감한 HSI 색 공간에서 색상 (hue) 성분을 강조하고 채도 (saturation) 및 휘도 (intensity) 성분을 보조적인 정보로 활용함으로써 부분적인 조명 및 그림자의 영향을 줄일 수 있도록 가중조합 벡터 미분 연산자 (weighted combination of vector gradient vector operator)를 제안 적용하여 그림자로 인한 거짓 경계선 및 거짓 코너를 제거할 수 있도록 하였다. 실험을 통하여 제안한 코너 검출 방법이 잡음 및 조명 변화에 둔감하게 효과적으로 코너를 검출함을 확인하였다.

This paper proposes a nail detection algorithm using OpenPose and implements virtual nail art using it. Based on the key points detected by OpenPose, the finger area is detected using skin color characteristics for each finger. The nail region is detected from the edge image of the detected finger region. Then, a virtual nail art is implemented by synthesizing nail tips in the nail area. In a somewhat controlled shooting environment, simulation results show that the proposed algorithm detects nail areas well and implements virtual nail art well.

As autonomous driving research is actively progressing, lane detection is an essential technology in ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) to locate a vehicle and maintain a route. Lane detection is detected using an image processing algorithm such as Hough transform and RANSAC (Random Sample Consensus). This paper implements a linear shape detection algorithm using OpenCV on Raspberry Pi 3 B+. Thresholds were set through OpenCV Gaussian blur structure and Canny edge detection, and lane recognition was successful through linear detection algorithm.
