In this paper, we propose a novel blocking effect reduction method based on a rational B-spline. The blocking effect results from independent coding of each image block and becomes highly visible especially coded at very low bit rates. The proposed approach adopts a rational open uniform B-spline curve that used to produce a smooth curve through a set of control points. The pixels on the block boundary are treated as control points, and the weight values, which decide the shape of curve, are determined differentially by considering the distance the position of the pixels and that of the block boundary. The simulation results show that the proposed method has excellent performance for all pattern of the blocking effect with less computational complexity.

본 논문에서는 유리 B 스플라인 곡선을 이용한 새로운 블록 효과 감소 방법들 제안한다. 블록 효과는 매우 낮은 비트율로 블록 기반 부호화 방식을 수행할 때 복원 영상에서 나타나는 블록 형태의 왜곡을 의미한다. 제안된 기법에서는 컴퓨터 그래픽스 분야에서 제어점을 근사하는 부드러운 곡선을 생성하기 위해 사용되는 유리 B 스플라인 곡선을 이용하여 블록 효과를 감소시킨다. 즉 블록 경계의 화소 값들을 제어 점으로 사용하며 블록 효과 발생 정도에 따라 가중치를 가변적으로 설정함으로써 블록 효과가 효율적으로 감소되도록 한다. 모의 실험은 제안된 방법이 기존 방법들에 비해 우수한 블록효과 감소 성능을 가지는 것을 나타낸다.

CAGD(Computer Aided Geometric Design) is a branch of applied mathematics concerned with algorithms for the design of smooth curves and surfaces and for their efficient mathematical representation. The representation is used for the computation of the curves and surfaces, as well as geometrical quantities of importance such as curvatures, intersection curves between two surfaces and offset surfaces. The $B\acute{e}zier$ curves, B-spline, rational $B\acute{e}zier$ curves and NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) are basically and widely used in CAGD. The definitions and properties of these curves are presented in this paper. And a brief history of study on the bound for derivative of rational curves in CAGD is also presented.

This paper describes one method of reverse engineering that machines a free form shape without descriptive model. A portable five-axes 3D CMM was used to digitize point data from physical model. After approximation by rational B-spline curve from digitized point data of a geometric shape, a surface was constructed by the skinning method of the cross-sectional design technique. Since a surface patch was segmented by fifteen part, surface merging was also implemented to assure the surface boundary continuity. Finally, composite surface was transferred to commercial CAD/CAM system through IFES translation in order to machine the modeled geometric shape.

The blocking effect results from independent coding of each image block and becomes highly visible, especially coded at very low bit rates. In this paper, a blocking effect reduction circuit is designed which is composed of a memory, arithmetic and logic unit, and control block. The circuit is based on a rational open uniform B-spline curve that uses to produce a smooth curve through a set of control points. The weight values and the modified pixel values in a rational open uniform B-spline curve are calculated using arithmetic and logic circuits. The simulation results show that the circuit has excellent performance for ail pattern of the blocking effects.
