본 논문에서는 개선된 고속의 Back Projection 기법과 에지맵 보간을 이용한 단일영상 기반의 초해상도(super resolution) 영상을 생성하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 알고리즘은 영상의 색채 왜곡을 방지하기 위해 RGB 컬러 도메인에서 HSV 컬러 도메인으로 변경하여 밝기정보인 V만 이용한다. 먼저 잡음제거와 속도 향상을 위해 개선된 고속 back projection을 이용해 영상을 확대 재구성한다. 이와 함께 LoG(laplacian of gaussian) 필터링을 이용하여 에지 맵을 추출한다. 에지의 정보와 back projection의 결과를 이용하여 고해상도 영상을 재구성한다. 제안하는 알고리즘을 이용하여 복원한 영상은 부자연스러운 인공물을 효과적으로 제거하고, blur현상을 줄여 에지 정보를 보정하고 강조해준다. 또한 실험을 통해 제안하는 알고리즘이 기존의 보간법과 전통적인 back projection 결과보다 주관적인 화질이 우수하고 객관적으로 우수한 성능을 나타내는 것을 입증한다.

Due to development of visual media in various industrial sectors, the importance of image processing is increasing. Among the various image processing areas, edge detection is utilized widely for various fields such as object recognition, object segmentation, the medical and other industries. Edge includes the critical factors of images like size, direction and location. Then conventional methods such as Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts and Laplacian are proposed to detect edge. However, edge detection property of these methods is declined when they are applied to the image which corrupted by AWGN(Additive White Gaussian Noise). Therefore, an algorithm using modified weighted filter is proposed in this paper and our method has excellent property on edge detection.

Edge detection has been widely used in computer vision and image processing. We describe a new edge detector based on the robust rank-order test which is a useful alternative to Wilcoxon test. Our method is based on detecting pixel intensity changes between two neighborhoods with a $r{\times}r$ window using an edge-height model to perform effectively on noisy images. Some experiments of our robust rank-order detector with several existing edge detectors are carried out on both synthetic images and real images with and without noise.

Edge detection in images has been widely used in image processing system and computer vision. Morphological edge detection has used structuring elements with fixed shapes. This paper presents morphological operators with non-fixed shape kernels, or amoebas, which take into account the image contour variations to adapt their shape. Experimental results are analyzed in both qualitative analysis through visual inspection and quantitative analysis with PFOM and ROC curves. The Experiments demonstrate that these novel operators outperform classical morphological operations with a fixed, space-invariant structuring elements for edge detection applications.

Edge detection is the first step and very important step in image nalyisi. In this paper, proposed edge detection algorithm based on informations of edge structures and it is different from other classical edge detection operators such asgradient and surface fitting algorithm. The firs, we defined characteristics of edge structures such as continuity, thinness, localization, length. The second, we defined valid edge structures and ideal edge pixel positions in $3\times3$ window based on edge characteristics of edge structures. And we proposed twelve windows for enhance dissimilarity regions based on valid edge structures and ideal edge pixel positions. In specially, proposed algorithm was shown better performance of edge detection than other operators such as gradient operator and the LoG(Laplacian of gradient) operator of zero crossings in noisy test image with $\sigma=30$.

In this paper we employ two-sample location tests such as Wilcoxon test and T test for detecting edges in noisy images. For this, we compute a test statistic on pixel gray levels obtained using an edge-height parameter and compare it with a threshold determined by a significance level. Experimental results applied to sample images are given and performances of these tests in terms of the objective measure are compared.

This paper presents an background edge generation based automatic algorithm for detection of moving objects under moving camera. Background image is generated by rotating the fixed the camera on the tripod horizontally, aligning and reorganizing this images. We develop an efficient approach for robust panoramic background edge generation as well as method of edge matching between input image and background image. We applied the proposed algorithm to real image sequences. The proposed method can be successfully realized in various monitoring systems like intrusion detection as well as video surveillance.

본 논문에서는 영상의 그래디언트 (gradient)를 구하여 그래디언트 값의 분포를 마치 3차원 지형과 같은 개념으로 간주하고 여기에 물이 흐르는 개념을 적용한 에지 (edge) 검출 방법을 제안하였다 영상에서 그래디언트 값이 큰 부분은 배경과 객체간의 에지라 볼 수 있으며, 이 에지에 물이 고이게 하기 위해서는 반전된 그래디언트 영상을 사용한다. 반전된 그래디언트 영상에서 물의 흐름을 기반으로 한 enhancing 작업과 국부적응 임계값 적용을 실시하여 잡음을 줄인 에지 영상을 찾는 방법을 제안한다. 합성영상과 실제영상에 대한실험을 통해 제안한 방법의 효율성을 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 영상의 잡음제거에 주로 적용되어 왔던 양방향 필터(bilateral filter) 기법을 개량하여 에지 정보를 더 잘 살리게 하는 방법을 제안한다. 우선, 잡음 영상에서 에지의 위치를 파악하기 위한 방법으로, 이웃픽셀값들의 분산을 이용하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한 에지와의 거리를 기반으로 필터의 계수를 조정하는 방법을 제시한다. 따라서 제안하는 알고리즘을 적용하여 잡음 제거를 수행하면 기존의 잡음 제거율을 유지하면서도 에지정보를 보존한 결과를 얻을 수 있다.

The digital image can be distorted by a noise for a transmission or other elements of system. It happen to be vague of a boundary side in the division of an image object, especially, boundary side of an input image is very important because it can be determined to the division and detection element in pattern recognition. Therefore it is proposed an edge detection method of optimal to divide and detect exactly a boundary part. In this paper, it detected the optimal edge with applying this image to Meyer wavelet-CNN algorithm, after it does level up a boundary side of an image by using the adaptive morphology as the threshold of an input image. It confirmed that the proposed algorithm is more superior to the conventional methods and the conventional Sobel method which is an image edge detection algorithm. Especially, it is confirmed by simulation that the proposed algorithm can be got the better result edge at the place of closing to each edges and having smoothly curved line.
