In this paper GFI (Generalized Fuzzy Isodata) and FI (Fuzzy Isodata) algorithms are studied and applied to the tire tread pattern classification problem. GFI algorithm which repeatedly grouping the partitioned cluster depending on the fuzzy partition matrix is general form of GI algorithm. In the constructing the binary tree using GFI algorithm cluster validity, namely, whether partitioned cluster is feasible or not is checked and construction of the binary tree is obtained by FDH clustering algorithm. These algorithms show the good performance in selecting the prototypes of each patterns and classifying patterns. Directions of edge in the preprocessed image of tire tread pattern are selected as features of pattern. These features are thought to have useful information which well represents the characteristics of patterns.

Micro end-milling process is applied to fabricate precision mechanical parts cost-effectively. It is a complex and time-consuming job to select optimal process conditions with high productivity and quality. To improve the productivity and quality of precision mechanical parts, micro end-mill wear and cutting force characteristics should be studied carefully. In this paper, high speed machining experiments are studied to construct the optimum process design as well as the mathematical modeling of tool wear and cutting force related to cutting parameters in micro ball end-milling processes. Cutting force and wear characteristics under various cutting conditions are investigated through the condition monitoring system and the design of experiment. In order to construct the cutting database, mathematical models for the flank wear and cutting force gradient are derived from the response surface method. Optimal milling conditions are extracted from the developed experimental models.

얼굴은 내측두(IT: inferotemporal) 영역에 독자적인 처리 공간을 가지고 있는 (Bruce, Desimone, & Gross, 1981; Rolls, 1992) 매우 복잡한 시각 자극이다. 본연구는 이러한 복잡한 얼굴 자극을 구성하고 있는 물리적인 특징들을 추출하여 얼굴을 수치 구조면에서 분석하고 이를 감성 공간과 연결시킬 목적으로 수행되었ㄷ. 이를 위해 본연구에서는 먼저 얼굴 내부에 36개의 특징들 및 특징들 간 관계를 설정하였다. 또한 얼굴 외곽형의 분류를 위해 얼굴 윤곽선 부위에 14개의 특징점을 찍고 코끝에서부터 이들 지점과의 거리를 측정하였다. 사람마다 기본적인 얼굴 14개의 특징점을 찍고 코끝에서부터 이들 지점과의 거리를 측정하였다. 사람마다 기본적인 얼굴 크기가 다르다는 점을 감안하여 이들 특징값들 중 길이값들은 얼굴 좌우폭 또는 얼굴 상하길이를 기주으로 정규화(normalization)되었다. 그런 다음 36개의 얼굴 내부 특징 요소들과 5가지 얼굴 외곽형을 입력값으로 하여 주성분분석(PCA: proncipal component analysis)을 실시하고, 여기서 도출된 다섯 개의 요인점수를 기반으로 5차원 공간을 가정하였다. 이 공간을 대표하는 얼굴을 고루 선정하되 해당 얼굴이 있다고 보기 어려운 영역을 제외하고 평균에 해당하는 얼굴을 추가하여 총 30가지 대표 얼굴 유형을 선정하였다. 선정된 얼굴들에 대해 일차적으로 감성 평가를 실시하여 2차원 감성 공간에 대표 얼굴들을 분포시켰다.

Methodology was suggested to analyze breast volume, base area of breast bulk. and surface area of breast using the 3D measurement system. Thirty-seven middle-aged (30s-40s) women wearing 80A brassiere were participated in this study. Image of the upper body was captured by Phase-shifting moire. The posture of the subject was adjusted to get the full image of the right breast. Rapidform 2001 was used for the analysis of the images. The mean breast volume was 547.0㎤ and mean base area of breast bulk was 235. I$\textrm{cm}^2$ It was also found that the volume(r=0.169) and surface area of breast(r=10.242) were loosely correlated with the circumference difference between top and under breast. Therefore, it is noted that current selection criterion of cup size based on the difference in the two kinds of breast circumference is inadequate. The result of this study is expected to contribute to the design of ergonomic brassiere as well as surgical operations in the medical field.

Three dimensional shaded images are standard visualization method for CAD models on the computer screen. Therefore, much of the effort in the visualization of CAD models has been focused on how conveniently and realistically CAD models can be displayed on the screen. However, shaded 3D CAD data images captured from the screen may not be suitable for some application areas. Technical document, either in the paper or electronic form, can more clearly describe the shape and annotate parts of the model by using projected 2D line drawing format viewed from a user defined view direction. This paper describes an efficient method for generating such a 2D line drawing data in the vector format. The algorithm is composed of silhouette line detection, hidden line removal and cleaning processes.

This paper presents a method that automatically recognizes products into model type, which it flows with the conveyor belt. The specific interlaced image are occurred by moving image when we use the NTSC based camera. It is impossible to process interlaced images, so a suitable post-processing is required. For the purpose of this processing, after it remove interlaced images using de-interlacing method, it leads rectangle region of object by thresholding. And then, after rectangle region is separated into several blocks through edge detection, we calculate pixel numbers per each block, re-classify using its average, and classify products into model type. Through experiments, we know that the proposed method represent high classification ratio.

In this paper, we propose vector-based face generation system that uses montage and shading method and preserves designer(artist)'s style. Proposed system generates character's face similar to human face automatically using facial features that extracted from a photograph. In addition, unlike previous face generation system that uses contours, we propose the system is based on color and composes face from facial features and shade extracted from a photograph. Thus, it has advantages that can make more realistic face similar to human face. Since this system is vector-based, the generated character's face has no size limit and constraint. Therefore it is available to transform the shape freely and to apply various facial expressions to 2D face. Moreover, it has distinctiveness with another approaches in point that can keep artist's impression just as it is in result.

Electron gun heaters are used to heat a cathode in video(TV) monitors. Major defects of the electron gun heaters include dimensional inaccuracy and pollution with dirty materials. In this paper, to save the labor and time being taken to inspect the heaters, a machine vision system is considered. For the system, a new algorithm is developed to measure the 9 different dimensions of each heater and to detect polluted defects. The algorithm consists of three stages. In the first stage, the center of the heater image is obtained and then its boundary detection is performed. For the efficient boundary detection, a mask called the sum mask is used. In the second stage of the algorithm, a set of fiducial points are determined on the boundary image. Finally, using the fiducial points specified dimensions are measured and the amount of polluted area is computed in the third stage. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated for a set of real specimens. The results indicate that measurements obtained by the algorithm satisfy the tolerance limits fur most of the dimensions and the algorithm detects the polluted defects successfully.

On the framework of Tolman spacetime model, the caustics around a local perturbed region in redshift is due to the local expansion rate induced by a local density inhomogeneity in real space. We have compared the caustics in redshift space, which are analytically obtained, with the observed redshift-distance patterns of galaxies which are belonging to Coma and Perseus clusters. For the Abell density distribution model and polytropic density profiles which are well-fitting the optical and X-ray observations, respectively, the size of caustics which is defined by "turnaround radius" of a local density perturbed region should give constraints on the sizes and masses of rich clusters and give also a clue to understand the state of hot X-ray emitting gas.

Recently, various types of image contents are being produced, and interest in copyright protection technology is increasing. In this paper, we propose an image encryption technology for color images. This technique divides the image into RGB color components and then performs quad-tree decomposition based on the edge of image. After the quad-tree partitioning, encryption is performed on the selected blocks. Encryption is performed on color components to measure encryption efficiency, and encryption efficiency is measured even after reconstitution into a color image. The encryption efficiency uses a visual measurement method and an objective image quality evaluation method. The PSNR values were measured as 7~10 dB for color difference components and 16~19 dB for color images. The proposed image encryption technology will be used to protect copyright of various digital image contents in the future.
