하천유역조사는 관련 법률의 규정에 의해 물관리정책의 수립에 필요한 기초정보를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 기본현황, 이수, 치수 환경생태 등 유역관리에 필요한 주요 조사항목을 대상으로 수행되고 있다. 조사방법 중 원격탐사자료 활용한 조사는 드론 모니터링 영상 및 위성영상자료를 이용해 댐·제방과 같은 치수 시설물의 안전관리, 수질 모니터링, 하천지형조사, 하상변동조사 등에 활용되고 있다. 최근에는 일반 RGB 영상뿐만 아니라 수백개의 분광밴드를 포함한 초분광영상을 이용한 하천조사 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 초분광영상은 분광해상도가 높아 다항목 조사에 활용할 수 있다는 장점이 있지만, 많은 양의 분광정보를 포함하고 있기 때문에 초기 수집 자료의 용량이 너무 크고, 분석을 위한 전처리 과정이 까다롭다는 단점이 있다. 반면, 10개 이하 밴드의 분광정보를 수집하는 다분광영상은 2개 밴드를 이용해 정규식생지수(NDVI)를 즉각적으로 모니터링할 수 있고, 작물의 생육현황 등을 분석할 수 있어 농업 및 산림분야에서 널리 활용되고 있다. 초분광영상을 이용한 수심산정 연구는 최적 밴드비 탐색 기법(OBRA)을 활용해 측정수심과 상관관계가 높은 밴드비를 이용해 수심맵을 구축하는 방식이 활용되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 초분광영상을 활용한 수심산정기법을 다분광영상에 적용하여 분광밴드수가 축소된(경량화된) 자료를 활용한 수심산정 가능성을 확인하기 위해 동일한 현장에서 초분광과 다분광 두가지 영상을 촬영하였으며, 각각 수심맵을 구축해 하천분야에서 다분광영상의 활용도를 평가하였다. 또한, 기존의 OBRA의 한계를 개선하기 위해 가우시안 혼합 모델(GMM; Gaussian Mixture Model)을 활용해 영상을 군집화하여 수심산정 정확도를 개선하였다.

The KOMPSAT-3A satellite acquires high-resolution MWIR images twice a day compared to conventional Earth observing satellites. New radiometric information of Earth's surface can be provided due to different characteristics from existing SWIR images or TIR images. In this study, the difference image of multitemporal images was generated and compared with existing infrared images to find the characteristics of KOMPSAT-3A MWIR satellite images. A co-registration was performed and the difference between pixel values was minimized by using PIFs (Pseudo Invariant Features) pixel-based relative normalization. The experiment using Sentinel-2 SWIR image, Landsat 8 TIR image, and KOMPSAT-3A MWIR image showed that the distinction between artifacts in the difference image of KOMPSAT-3A is prominent. It is believed that the utilization of KOMPSAT-3A MWIR images can be improved by using the characteristics of IR image.

In this paper, we propose 2D industrial image registration method for the detection of defects. Proposed method performs preprocessing to smooth the original image with the preservation of the edge for the robust registration against general noise. Then, x-direction gradient magnitude image and corresponding binary image are generated. Density analysis around neighborhood regions per pixel are performed to generate feature image for preventing mis-registration due to moire-like patterns, which frequently happen in industrial images. Finally, 2D image registration based on phase correlation between feature images is performed to calculate translational parameters to align two images rapidly and optimally. Experimental results showed that the registration accuracy of proposed method for the real industrial images was 100% and our method was about twenty times faster than the previous method. Our fast and accurate method could be used for the real industrial applications.

Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) has been planted as one of the key infrastructures with an overall improvement in standards of medical informationization and the stream of digital hospitalization in recent days. The kind and data of digital medical imagery are also increasing rapidly in volume. This trend emphasizes the medical image compression for storing large-scale medical image data. Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM), de facto standard in digital medical imagery, specifies Run Length Encode (RLE), which is the typical lossless data compressing technique, for the medical image compression. However, the RLE is not appropriate approach for medical image data with bilateral symmetry of the human organism. we suggest two preprocessing algorithms that detect interested area, the minimum bounding rectangle, in a medical image to enhance data compression efficiency and that re-code image pixel values to reduce data size according to the symmetry characteristics in the interested area, and also presents an improved image compression technique for brain CT imagery with high bilateral symmetry. As the result of experiment, the suggested approach shows higher data compression ratio than the RLE compression in the DICOM standard without detecting interested area in images.

It is often crucial to obtain a map of flood inundated area with more accurate and rapid manner. This study attempts to evaluate the potential of satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data for mapping of flood inundated area in Imjin river basin. Multitemporal RADARSAT SAR data of three different dates were obtained at the time of flooding on August 4 and before and after the flooding. Once the data sets were geometrically corrected and preprocessed, the temporal characteristics of relative radar backscattering were analyzed. By comparing the radar backscattering of several surface features, it was clear that the flooded rice paddy showed the distinctive temporal pattern of radar response. Flooded rice paddy showed significantly lower radar signal while the normally growing rice paddy show high radar returns, which also could be easily interpreted from the color composite imagery. In addition to delineating the flooded rice fields, the multitemporal radar imagery also allow us to distinguish the afterward condition of once-flooded rice field.

본 논문은 시각 장애인을 위해 양면 인쇄된 점자를 디지털 카메라나 스캐너를 통해서 읽어 들인 후, 영상 내의 잡음과 같은 미세 정보를 제거하는 전처리과정을 거친다. 스캔한 영상을 이진화하기 위해 임계값을 이용한 클리핑으로 이진영상을 만든 후 영상의 특징을 추출한다. 추출된 특징을 보면 점자의 앞면과 뒷면으로 분류할 수 있다. 점자 앞면의 특징이 아래반원으로 나타나며 이러한 특징을 이용한 검출필터를 만들어 점자의 앞면만을 추출해낸다. 점자의 앞면을 추출하는 과정에서 탐색구간을 두어 한 점에 대하여 여러 화소가 검출되는 것을 막는다 영상을 각각 수직방향, 수평방향으로 투영시켜 점자영상 분할을 위한 거리를 계산, 자간격과 줄간격을 구해 1/2되는 지점에 선을 그어 분할한다. 분할된 점자 형태소를 낱자로 인식한다.

A new approach for determining global threshold value for image binarization is proposed in this paper. In the proposed algorithm, bit-plane information which involve the shapes of original image is used for dividing image into two parts object and background, and then compared each average values. Optimal threshold value are selected in center of two averages. Proposed method is relatively simple but robust and achieved good results in continuous tone images and document image.

A remote sensed image simulation following to weather and season conditions can be performed by a reverse atmospheric correction which is a function of image preprocessing. In this study, we have made an experiment to generate the simulated image to the raw image, which is prior to the atmospheric corrected images under the specific weather conditions. The applied methods in this study were the Forster algorithm (1984) and 6S RTM (Radiative Transfer Model). The simulated images has been compared with the original image to analyze compliances. In fact, the results from 6S RTM method show better compliances than Forster, with a mean of RMSE of DN difference 9.35 and a mean of $R^2$ 0.7. In conclusion, a simulated image has practical feasibility when similar to the period and season as the reference image.

The increased availability of portable, low-cost, high resolution video equipments have resulted in a rapid growth of the applications for video sequences. These video devices can be mounted in handhold unit, mobile unit and airborne platforms like maned or unmaned helicopter, plane, airship, etc. This paper describes the feasibility fur generating image map from the experimental results we designed to track the interested points extracted by KLT operator in the neighboring frames and implement image matching for each frames taken from UAV (Unmaned Aerial Vehicle). In the image registration for neighbourhood frames of aerial video, the results demonstrate the successful rate of matching slightly decreases as the drift between frames increases, and also that the stable photographing is more important matching condition than the pixel shift.

Shadow is a physical phenomenon observed in natural scenes and has a negative effect on various image processing systems such as intelligent video surveillance, traffic surveillance and aerial imagery analysis. Therefore, shadow detection should be considered as a preprocessing process in all areas of computer vision. In this paper, we define and analyze various feature elements for shadow detection in a single natural image that does not require a reference image. The shadow elements describe the intensity, chromaticity, illuminant-invariant, color invariance, and entropy image, which indicate the uncertainty of the information. The results show that the chromaticity and illuminant-invariant images are effective for shadow detection. In the future, we will define a fusion map of various shadow feature elements, and continue to study shadow detection that can adapt to various lighting levels, and shadow removal using chromaticity and illuminance invariant images.
