To assess image quality accurately, an image quality assessment (IQA) metric is required to reflect the human visual system (HVS) properly. In other words, the structure, color, and contrast ratio of the image should be evaluated in consideration of various factors. In addition, as mobile embedded devices such as smartphone become popular, a fast computing speed is important. In this paper, the proposed IQA metric combines color similarity, gradient similarity, and phase similarity synergistically to satisfy the HVS and is designed by using optimized pooling and quantization for fast computation. The proposed IQA metric is compared against existing 13 methods using 4 kinds of evaluation methods. The experimental results show that the proposed IQA metric ranks the first on 3 evaluation methods and the first on the remaining method, next to VSI which is the most remarkable IQA metric. Its computing speed is on average about 20% faster than VSI's. In addition, we find that the proposed IQA metric has a bigger amount of correlation with the HVS than existing IQA metrics.

In this study, there is main purpose to provide useful data in order to use the Hangul as a design factor. Also, there are two subordinate goals. First, to analyze standards as people estimate Hangul characters. Second, to understand people's preferences about Hangul characters and then, to catch formal features about that characters. In first result, It is known that people estimate Hangul characters based on four standards. They are neat, soft, cyber and plain standards. As second consequence, preferential Hangul characters have pretty, intimate, refined, soil, elaborate, forthright, tidy image. And they are square shape as a whole, less decorative, round edge style.

We detect the obstacle for the UGV(unmanned ground vehicle) from the compound image which is generated by stereo vision sensor masking the depth image and color image. Stereo vision sensor can gathers the distance information by stereo camera. The obstacle information from the depth compound image can be send to mobile robot and the robot can localize the indoor area. And, we test the performance of the mobile robot in terms of distance between the obstacle and the robot's position and also test the color, depth and compound image respectively. Moreover, we test the performance in terms of number of frame per second which is processed by operating machine. From the result, compound image shows the improved performance in distance and number of frames.

This paper is concerned with analyzing the images of Korean automobiles using, so called, sensory engineering, which adapts the sensory and subjective assessment of human beings in evaluating the quality of product. The methodology of analysis is suggested in this paper according to the following steps. First, 14 pairs of adjectives, which describe the image of object cars in view of the semantic differential method, are derived from consulting with several expert panels. Nextly, factor analysis is performed in order to obtain the axises, by which the images space of the object automobiles are specified, and then the images of the object automobiles are measured by the coordinate of all the object automobiles in the image space. In this paper, a sensory estimation experiment is performed to a panel consisting with In undergraduate students residing in the region of Daegu. From the result of analysis of this paper, target images, which the automobile manufacturers are intended, are achieved by and large except one company.

We evaluate the face detection and recognition of depth image that is obtained by infrared range sensor. and Face recognition was usually focused on accuracy aspect but it is not enough to evaluate the performance in testing for real world application. In this paper, we evaluate the overall performance like accuracy, training, test speed and memory use for the well known face recognition algorithm like PCA, LDA, ICA and SVM. This experiment evaluate the good results of depth and colored depth image compatible with the colored image although the file size of depth and colored depth image is 30%~40% less than the colored image. Whereas, LDA got the good accuracy performance next to the SVM and also shows the good performance in speed and the amount of memory.

This research focuses on similarity evaluation of images according to tones of images. Color space of images were converted RGB color space into HSI color space. The information entropy criteria has been taken for evaluating similarity of images for digital library. The similarity was then calculated by combining correlation coefficients and information entropy. Those two values are further analyzed with a relation to human sensibility.

Recently, we are using robots and drones to collect images. However, as the robot or drone is shaken by external influences, pre-processing technology to register images is required. Therefore, in this paper, we use autonomous robots, drones dataset and improve the quality of shaken image data through the Deblur deep learning model. We confirmed through the experimental results that the shaken images were registered and evaluated the model.

이미지를 비롯한 멀티미디어 데이터의 검색시스템에서 객체들 간의 공간 관계는 이미지를 표현하는 중요한 요소 중의 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 검색 방식과는 달리 이미지에 나타나 있는 객체들 간의 다양한 공간 관계 감소규칙을 제안한다. 이것은 이미지 오브젝트간의 공간관계를 수를 줄여주고 질의처리속도를 빠르게 해준다. 특히 기존의 2차원 이미지뿐만 아니라 3차원 이미지에서도 본 논문에서 제안하는 기법을 적용할 수 있다. 마지막으로 실제 실험물 통해서 제안된 감소규칙의 성능을 평가하였다.

In this paper, we propose the collective intelligence-based image shared market platform to provide a high quality of image saring services compared to that of the conventional image shared market platforms. The main contribution of this paper can be summarized as follows. First, the proposed platform provides the image sharing services with much more lower price than that of the conventional platforms since the price can be decided based on the buyers themself. Second, since the proposed platform provides very efficient web accessibility, the various buyer can access and evaluate the image efficiently. The results of performance evaluation show that the proposed image shared market platform can support the efficient image shared services efficiently.

This paper attempted to improve the accuracy of the colorectal cancer diagnosis model using image data augmentation in convolutional neural network. Image data augmentation was performed by flipping, rotation, translation, shearing and zooming with basic image manipulation method. This study split 4000 training data and 1000 test data for 5000 image data held, the model is learned by adding 4000 and 8000 images by image data augmentation technique to 4000 training data. The evaluation results showed that the clasification accuracy for 4000, 8000, and 12,000 training data were 85.1%, 87.0%, and 90.2%, respectively, and the improvement effect depending on the increase of image data was confirmed.
