최근 사회적으로 근감소증에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 노인성 근감소증 시장이 골다공증 시장을 뛰어 넘을 것으로 전망하고 있다. 진단 방법으로 의료영상기반으로 근육량을 인공지능 기술로 측정하여 근감소증 진단에 적용하는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 복부 CT 영상에서 L3 부위의 근육량을 기반으로 한 진단 기준을 이용하여 아시아 피험자의 T-score를 기반으로 근감소증 진단을 자동화하였다. 특히 복부 CT영상의 업로드와 함께 자동으로 근육량을 측정하여 개인별 상태를 확인할 수 있도록하여 근감소증 진단을 지원 할 수 있도록 개발하였다. 그리고 이를 기반으로 4가지 간 질환 환자의 L3 부위 근육량을 측정하여 근감소증과의 상관성을 확인하였다. 이는 다양한 기저 질환과 근감소증과의 연관성 연구에 도움이 될 것으로 기대한다.

The passive focusing method finds the in-focus position by analyzing images captured by a camera. In this paper, we propose an efficient passive auto-focusing algorithm for video measuring systems. The sum of modified Laplacian of Gaussian is used to calculate focus values from images and Gaussian curve fitting is applied to estimate the optimal in-focus position. The Proposed method is tested for various objects and illuminations. The test result is compared with other methods to verify accuracy and efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

지문인식 시스템의 성능을 측정하기 위해 지문 데이터베이스가 필요하지만, 개인 사생활 문제나 데이터베이스를 구성하기 위한 제약조건 등으로 인해 실제 사용가능한 지문 데이터베이스는 많지 않다. 본 논문에서는 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 수집된 지문 영상으로부터 다양한 환경적 효과를 가진 지문 영상을 자동으로 생성해주는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 소량의 원본 영상으로부터 목표 환경의 지문을 생성하기 위한 필터 조합을 찾는다. 서로 다른 압력에서 수집된 지문을 대상으로 제안하는 방법을 적용하였으며, 생성된 지문 영상은 실제 환경에서 수집된 것과 비슷한 특성을 나타내었다. 제안하는 방법을 통해 실제로 다수의 지문을 수집하지 않고 각종 환경에서 시스템의 성능을 평가할 수 있다.

홍채인식 시스템의 성능은 입력된 눈 영상으로부터 정확한 홍채 영역의 검출 및 효율적인 홍채코드의 생성 등의 영향을 받으나, 이를 위해서는 입력된 눈 영상에서 홍채 패턴이 선명해야 한다는 선행 조건이 존재한다. 초점이 맞지 않아 흐리게 나온 영상 눈을 감은 영상, 속눈썹에 의해 홍채영역이 가려진 영상, 움직임에 의해 블러링된 영상, 또는 홍채가 아닌 속눈썹 등의 다른 부분에 초점이 맞춰진 영상 등에서는 선명한 홍채 패턴을 얻을 수 없으므로 전체 인식 성능을 떨어뜨리는 요인이 된다. 그러므로 이러한 영상들을 자동으로 걸러내 제거해주는 눈 영상 화질 측정 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 눈 영상의 초점이 잘 맞는지 측정하는 방법을 제안하고 자체적으로 획득한 데이터베이스를 이용해 이를 테스트하였다.

Currently, the domestic interests on the development of eyesight related measuring instruments are being increased. So we are developing such an electronic system of Refracto-keratometer, which contains a software and a hardware both. If this system could inform the examiner of the precise eyesight measuring result from the treatment of the image of optical system, then potentially the number of missed measuring results could be reduced. Our electronic system has been developed from the two areas divided into a software and a hardware. The software area was focused on the more exact eyesight measuring results, using morphological filtering methods and gray-leveled signal enhancing techniques. The hardware area is performing the same functions as the existing other systems. Besides, it provides the embedded software with free variables which could reduce the developing duration sharply as well as enlarge many kinds of application-extensions. Therefore, this electronic system has made effective eyesight measurement possible as the result of reducing the differences applied to sophisticated eyesight measurement.

In this paper, we have proposed an automated system that accurately measures the thickness and unbalanced wear of brake shoes, and the distance between brake shoes and wheels for travelling rolling stock. The images of brake shoes are captured automatically while rolling stock is passing by an inspection station. And in order to measure the thickness, etc. the locations of brake shoes are first determined because the locations are not the same in the captured image. Toward this goal, shadow regions between the brake shoes and wheels are utilized that are common in all captured images. The boundary of the shadow regions is modeled by an second order polynomial, and constrained curve fitting method is adopted to detect a curve (the initial curve) that passes through the regions. Then, three curves that correspond to the front, back of brake shoes and wheels, and a line that passes through the vertical surface of brake shoes are detected using the initial curve and intensity change information. Finally, the thickness, etc. are calculated using the detected curves and line, and experimental results showed that the brake shoe thickness was measured with an accuracy of 0.654mm.

The present paper studies how to calibrate hydrometer using image process. The method aligns particular scales of hydrometer selected for calibrating the hydrometer with the horizontal plane of the reference liquid automatically without man's operation. Major parts composing the system are CCD camera, frame grabber, stepping motor and image process program. The image process program is composed of a part that locates the meniscus and aligns it with a scale and a part that controls the step motor. To verify the performance of the developed method, this study compares the meniscus and scale observed directly with the naked eye with the result of calibration by the manual calibration method. The differences between the corrections were less than $0.004\;kg/m^3$ with uncertainty of $0.06\;kg/m^3$. These showed that the calibration results of the developed hydrometer calibration using image process nearly equal to manual method.

Pantograph sliding plate abrasion auto-detect system, one of the electric rail car auto-detecting devices, is a system that decides how much abrasion and when to replace without an inspector physically looking at the abrasion on the wet plate using machine vision, a cutting-edge technology. This paper covers the cause of deteriorating reliability that affects pantograph wet plate edge detection due to noise added to the video when it rains. In order to remove such noise, problems should be checked through Smoothing, Averaging mask and Median filter using filtering technique and stable edge detection without being affected by noise should be induced in video measurement used in machine vision technology.

This study deals with internal state and tissue density analysis methods for red ginseng grade determination. For internal measurement of red ginseng, there have been various studies on nondestructive testing methods since the 1990s, It was difficult to grasp the most important inner hole and inside whites in the grading. So in this study, we developed a closed capturing device for infra-red illumination environment, and developed an internal measurement system that can detect the presence and diameter of inner hole and inside whites. Made devices consisted of infrared lights with a high transmission rate of red ginseng in 920 nanometer wave band, a infra-red camera and a Y axis actuator with a red ginseng automatically controlled focus on the camera. The proposed algorithm performs an auto-focus system on the Y-axis actuator to automatically adjust the sharp focus of the object according to the size and thickness. Then red ginseng is rotated $360^{\circ}$ at $1^{\circ}$ intervals and 360 total images are acquired, and reconstructed as a sinogram through Radon transform and Back-projection algorithm was performed to acquire internal images of red ginseng. As a result of the algorithm, it was possible to acquire internal cross-sectional image regardless of the thickness and shape of red ginseng. In the future, if more than 10,000 different shapes and sizes of red ginseng internal cross-sectional image are acquired and the classification criterion is applied, it can be used as a reliable automated ginseng grade automatic measurement method.
