텍스처 정보는 정지 영상 뿐 아니라 동영상 분석에서도 많은 정보를 제공한다. 이러한 텍스처 정보를 동영상의 움직임 분류에 사용하여 기존의 색, 색영역의 배치 정보, 기준 형상, 명도 텍스처 등을 기본 탐색 키로 삼는 동영상 검색 시스템에 텍스처 특성을 움직임 정보에 적용하여 저 수준 정보에서 움직임 정보가 직접적으로 추출될 수 있음을 보였다. 이 방법의 장점은 배경 소거, 오브젝트 추출 및 추적, 참조 곡선 탐색 등 많은 계산량을 요구하는 연산들이 없이도 움직임 정보를 압축 동영상에서 추출할 수 있다는 것이다. 또한 동영상은 데이터의 양이 매우 크기 때문에 압축되어 있는 것이 필수인데 본 연구에서는 웨이브릿으로 압축되어 있는 동영상에서 움직임 정보가 고주파 부분에 집중되어 있는 점을 이용하여 역변환을 거치지 않고 직접 템포럴 텍스처를 생성하였다. 따라서 계산 속도를 향상시켰으며 계산 과정도 행렬 연산을 기본으로 수행하여 계산 과정을 간단하게 하였다.

Automatic smoke detection systems using a surveillance camera requires a reliable smoke detection method. When an image sequence is captured from smoke spreading over in the air, not only has each smoke image frame a special texture, called static texture, but the difference between two smoke image frames also has a peculiar texture, called dynamic texture. Even though an object has a static texture similar to that of the smoke, its dynamic texture cannot be similar to that of the smoke if its movement differs from the diffraction action of the smoke. This paper presents a reliable smoke detection method using these two textures. The proposed method first detects change regions using accumulated frame difference, and then picks out smoke regions using Haralick features extracted from two textures.

New very low bit rate segmentation image coding technique is proposed by segmenting image into textually homogeneous regions. Regions are classified into on of three perceptually distinct texture classes (perceived constant intensity (class I), smooth texture (class II), and rough texture (class III) using the human Visual System (HVS) and the fractals. To design very low bit rate image coder, it is very important to determine nonoverlap and overlap segmentation method for each texture class. Good quality reconstructed images are obtained with about 0.10 to 0.21 bit per pixel (bpp) for many different types of imagery.

This paper proposes a novel framework for image fusion of satellite imagery to enhance spatial resolution of the image via structure-texture decomposition. The resolution of the satellite imagery depends on the sensors, for example, panchromatic images have high spatial resolution but only a single gray band whereas multi-spectral images have low spatial resolution but multiple bands. To enhance the spatial resolution of low-resolution images, such as multi-spectral or infrared images, the proposed framework combines the structures from the low-resolution image and the textures from the high-resolution image. To improve the spatial quality of structural edges, the structure image from the low-resolution image is guided filtered with the structure image from the high-resolution image as the guidance image. The combination step is performed by pixel-wise addition of the filtered structure image and the texture image. Quantitative and qualitative evaluation demonstrate the proposed method preserves spectral and spatial fidelity of input images.

There are many methods for surveying the status of a road, and the use of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photo is one such method. When the UAV images are too large to be processed and suspected to be redundant, a texture extraction technique is used to transform the data into a reduced set of feature representations. This is an important task in 3D simulation using UAV images because a huge amount of data can be inputted. This paper presents a texture extraction method from UAV images to obtain high-resolution images of bridges. The proposed method is in three steps: firstly, we use the 3D bridge model from the V-World database; secondly, textures are extracted from oriented UAV images; and finally, the extracted textures from each image are blended. The result of our study can be used to update V-World textures to a high-resolution image.

영상의 깊이 정보를 추출하는 것은 매우 어려운 연구이다. 다양한 유형의 영상 구조의 분석이 필요하지만 많은 경우에 주관적인 판단의 도움이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 로스 텍스처 필터를 기반으로 정지 영상의 깊이를 자동으로 생성하는 방법을 제안한다. 로스 텍스처 필터는 단안 비전에서 3D 깊이를 얻기 위한 방법으로 활용되었는데, 실제 2D 영상에서 깊이를 예측하기 위해 텍스처 편차, 텍스처 기울기, 색상 등을 활용한다. 로스 필터는 $1{\times}5$ 벡터로부터 콘볼루션을 이용하여, 20여개의 $5{\times}5$ 콘볼루션 필터가 구해지는데, 영상에 필터를 적용하여 로스 에너지를 계산한다. 구해진 에너지를 깊이 맵으로 변환하고, 깊이 맵에서 특징 점을 구하고, 특징 점들로부터 델러노이 삼각화를 이용하여 삼각형 깊이 메쉬를 얻는다. 구해진 깊이 맵의 성능을 측정하기 위해 카메라 시점을 변경하면서 영상의 3D 구조를 분석하였으며, 입체영상을 생성하여 3D 입체 시청 결과를 분석하였다. 실험에서는 로스 텍스처 필터를 이용하는 깊이 생성 방법이 좋은 효과를 얻는 것을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 가상 캐릭터 제작을 위해 표정변화가 가능한 얼굴의 3D텍스처를 구성하는 방법을 2가지로 제안한다. 하나는 3D 스캐너에서 입력한 얼굴 3D 텍스처에 얼굴의 3D 표준 모델을 정합하여 표정변화가 가능하게 하는 방법이다. 이 경우는 얼굴의 3D 텍스처와 함께 정확한 3D 형상 모델을 얻을수는 있으나, 스캐닝 비용이 고가이고, 장비의 이동이 불편하다. 또 하나의 방법은 전후좌우 4매의 2D영상을 통합하여 얼굴의 3D 텍스처를 구성하는 방법이다. 이 방법은 4매의 2D 영상에 3D 형상모델을 정합한 후, 4개의 모델의 높이, 넓이, 깊이를 통합하여, 대체적인 3D 형상모델을 얻고, 4매의 영상을 통합하여 개인 얼굴의 3D 텍스처를 얻게 된다. 이 경우는 2D 얼굴영상을 이용하기 때문에 저가로 널리 이용할 수 있는 방법이다.

Finding a new set of features representing textured images is one of the most important studies in textured image analysis. This is because it is impossible to construct a perfect set of features representing every textured image, and it is inevitable to choose some relevant features which are efficient to on-going image processing jobs. This paper intends to find relevant features which are efficient to textured image segmentation. In this regards, this paper presents a different method for the segmentation of textured images based on the Gabor filter. Gabor filter is known to be a very efficient and effective tool which represents human visual system for texture analysis. Filtering a real-valued input image by the Gabor filter results in complex-valued output data defined in the spatial frequency domain. This complex value, as usual, gives the module and the phase. This paper focused its attention on the phase information, rather than the module information. In fact, the module information is considered very useful at region analysis in texture, while the phase information was considered almost of no use. But this paper shows that the phase information can also be fully useful and effective at region analysis in texture, once a good method introduced. We now propose "phase derivated method", which is an efficient and effective way to compute the useful phase information directly from the filtered value. This new method reduces effectively computing burden and widen applicable textured images.

In this paper, a new texture segmentation-based image coding technique which performs segmentation based on properties of the human visual system (HVS) is presented. This method solves the problems of a segmentation-based image coding technique with constant segments by proposing a methodology for segmenting an image into texturally homogeneous regions with respect to the degree of roughness as perceived by the HVS. The segmentation is accomplished by thresholding the fractal dimension so that textural regions are classified into three texture classes; perceived constant intensity, smooth texture, and rough texture. It is very important to determine the proper block size for estimating the fractal dimension. Good quality reconstructed images are obtained with about 0.1 to 0.25 bit per pixel (bpp) for many different types of imagery.

A new texture segmentation-based image coding technique which performs segmentation based on roughness of textural regions and properties of the human visual system (HVS) is presented for multime-dia teleconference. The segmentation is accomplished by thresholding the fractal dimension so that textural regions are classified into three texture classes; perceived constant intensity, smooth texture, and rough texture. An image coding system with high compression and good image quality is achieved by developing an efficient coding technique for each segment boundary and each texture class. We compare the coding efficiency of this technique with that of a well established technique (discrete cosine transform (DCT) image coding).
