Halftoning of gray-scale image is a process to produce a binary image. The error diffusion halftoning method produces high qualify binary image but that has some defects such as sharpening and directional artifacts. We propose the threshold modulation to reduce such defects. The proposed algorithm uses thresholds reflecting local characteristic of image. We calculate thresholds which minimize errors of flat region of each gray-scale level by using a linear gain between original image and error-diffused image and then represent edge by compensating thresholds in proportion to edge information. The proposed method improves on halftone quality by minimizing an error which cause sharpening and directional artifact.

PDP, LCD, IED 등의 디스플레이 패널 재료를 회두로 생장해 오던 디스플레이 장치 시장이 최근 3D라는 어플리케이션이 화두가 되어 시장 성장을 이끌어 오고 있다. 3D 디스플레이 장치 시장의 규모 및 성장속도에 비해 이를 이용할 수 있도록 하는 3D 서비스는 상대적으로 부족하다. 3D 디스플레이 장치를 확보하는 소비자가 늘어남에 따라 지속적으로 증가하는 3D 서비스에 대한 잠재 수요에 대응하기 위해 다양한 형태의 3D 서비스가 계획되고, 다양한 형태의 콘텐츠 제작이 이루어지고 있다. 3D 디스플레이 장치 및 서비스 시장의 지속적인 성장을 위해서는 제작 및 서비스되는 3D 콘텐츠에 대한 품질 평가 방법에 대한 연구가 선행되어야 한다. 이에 본 논문은 3D 비디오에 대해 사람들이 느끼는 주관적 품질 평가 방법을 제안한다. 하나의 영상 도메인에 표현되던 2D 영상과 달리 스테레오스코픽 비전 방식의 3D 입체 영상은 오른쪽과 왼쪽, 두 개의 영상 도메인에 각 각 표현된다. 또한 양쪽 영상의 차이로 인해 깊이감을 인식할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 양안에 입력되는 영상의 품질을 각각 측정하고, 두 영상의 차이가 이끌어내는 깊이감을 분석하여 입체영상 전체의 품질 평가에 이용하는 방법을 제안한다.

본 논문에서는 기존의 칼라 항상성(color constancy) 알고리즘을 기반으로 한 새로운 영상 복원 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 인간의 시각 특성을 선형 모델로 표현한 칼라 항상성 모델을 이용한다. 칼라 항상성 모델에서 가장 중요한 과정은 영상의 광원을 추정하는 것이다. 이론 위하여 영상에서 명도 값이 가장 큰 화소의 값을 이용하며, 이 값을 각 수광체(photoreceptor)의 응답으로 대체한다. 추정된 광원을 이용하여 만들어진 영상을 일정한 비율로 스케일링하여 영상을 복원한다. 실험을 통하여 제안한 항법으로 영상 복원이 잘 됨을 알 수 있었다.

Development of digital media and computer graphics related research had changed the overall stream of cultural art and our daily life, as well as its development also had an effect on a fresh and exciting area of cultural arts such as the new media art, interactive art and real-time performing. In this paper, we used emotional expression techniques that they lead audiences on the process of natural communication by combining the particle system of computer graphics with performance based screen art. In this paper, we used emotional expression techniques that they lead audiences on the process of natural communication by combining the particle system of computer graphics with performance based screen art. Namely, by capturing the creation and location speed of particle which is synchronized between the sound, behavior and particles, performance based screen art as the form of the experimental structure in which is combined with scientific technology and art is therefore proposed.

Recently studies about audio-visual immersion are being carried out due to development of digital video but studies analysing quantitatively the content or climax of video has not carried out. The paper is analysed quantitatively by using shot size, camera angle, camera direction and camera position, objective & subjective which is general component of video expression. We can see the climax effects in the video destroying the principles because there is a rule when they use the component. This thesis analyses shot-list based on video expression in existing movies therefore it can analyse quantitatively several method commonly used in order to make the climax. These suggesting method that can find the part of climax based on analysis of shot-list can be used when you search the specific part of video like long movie or when you search the genre of the movie or when you index the genre. Also it can be very effective in various information services companies offering climax movie which is searched.

The many studies have been proceeding to express accurately the feature of a sudden signal and a uncertain system in the image processing field. It is well know that Fourier Transform is widely used for frequency analysis of any signal. However, The frequency transform domain is not used for expressing the sudden signal change and non-stationary signal at the time-axis by this method. This paper describes of image analysis by discrete wavelet transform. Wavelet modulus maxima on transformed plane gives the Lipschitz exponent expression, which is useful to examine the characteristics of signal or the edge of an image. It is possible to reconstruct the original image only using the few maxima points. The fractal analysis is applied as an examples. The visualized image of oil flow on a ship model is analyzed. The fractal variable is obtained by the maxima analysis and the good results on the exprement is obtained by the visualized image analysis.

Among the Example based Super Resolution(SR) techniques, Neighbor embedding(NE) has been inspired by manifold learning method, particularly locally linear embedding. However, the poor generalization of NE decreases the performance of such algorithm. The sizes of local training sets are always too small to improve the performance of NE. We propose the Learning Sparse-Neighbor Image Representation baesd on SVR having an excellent generalization ability to solve this problem. Given a low resolution image, we first use bicubic interpolation to synthesize its high resolution version. We extract the patches from this synthesized image and determine whether each patch corresponds to regions with high or low spatial frequencies. After the weight of each patch is obtained by our method, we used to learn separate SVR models. Finally, we update the pixel values using the previously learned SVRs. Through experimental results, we quantitatively and qualitatively confirm the improved results of the proposed algorithm when comparing with conventional interpolation methods and NE.

In this paper, we propose a hydrodynamic scene separation method for wave propagation from video imagery using autoencoder. In the coastal area, image analysis methods such as particle tracking and optical flow with video imagery are usually applied to measure ocean waves owing to some difficulties of direct wave observation using sensors. However, external factors such as ambient light and weather conditions considerably hamper accurate wave analysis in coastal video imagery. The proposed method extracts hydrodynamic scenes by separating only the wave motions through minimizing the effect of ambient light during wave propagation. We have visually confirmed that the separation of hydrodynamic scenes is reasonably well extracted from the ambient light and backgrounds in the two videos datasets acquired from real beach and wave flume experiments. In addition, the latent representation of the original video imagery obtained through the latent representation learning by the variational autoencoder was dominantly determined by ambient light and backgrounds, while the hydrodynamic scenes of wave propagation independently expressed well regardless of the external factors.

The video image in the movie has become more spectacular than ever, and the expression area and the subject have been infinitely expanded, but it can not be said that the range of imagination has expanded. Instead, the 60s and 70s, which were the epochs of popular culture, The film that implements the artististic visual style and expression style of the artist. Stanley Kubrick's "Clockwork Orange", which has been pursuing technological perfection and experimental style, was created using traditional video grammar and gained a great repercussion with outstanding material and high artistic expression technique at that time. These techniques have led audiences to rational observation through irony, rather than emotional sympathy for the situation, for extreme violence and sensational films. This is because the purpose of the director was not to be in technological perfection but to reveal the contradictions of the real society and to reflect on the meaning of the existence of society itself. These creative traditional visual grammar and expression methods are a good visual style that enables the intentionally transmitted message to be transmitted more intensely and effectively, and the artistic depth can be created at the same time by unconsciously perceiving the meaning present on the back to the audience.
