In this paper, we proposed an algorithm of edge enhancement to improve image visibility of mobile phone camera. For naturally edge enhancement, we grasps edge characteristic in image and applied to the most appropriate enhancement value adaptively about each characteristics. Namely, It applies 2D high pass filter where in the edge characteristics which judge in the first In compliance with the edge condition which is subdivided more with secondary it will be able to apply the process which able to adaptive edge enhancement to improve image visibility. It joins in and it is an existing algorithm that simply a lies 2D high pass filter where and it is identical in the image whole it will be able to improve the side effects of ringing actual condition etc. It considers the effectiveness of the hardware resource with the hardware of the algorithm which is developed and algorithm the maximum simply, it developed and simulation of the algorithm which is proposed it led and algorithm of existing and it compared and is improved the result which it confirmed.

This paper describes FPGA design and realization using the shading correction algorithm for a CCD scan image enhancement. The shading algorithm is used by LUT (Look-up Table). The image enhancement results from that the histogram minimum value and maximum with respect to all pixels of the CCD image should be extracted, and the shading LUT is constructed to keep constant histogram with offset data. The output of sensor be converted to corrected LUT image in preprocessing, and the converting system is realized by FPGA to be enabled to operate in real time. The result of the experimentation for the proposed system is showed to take the scanning time 2.4ms below. The system is presented to be based on a low speed processor system to scan enhanced images in real time and be guaranteed to be low cost.

기존의 내용기반 이미지 검색 시스템은 색상, 질감, 모양등과 같은 특징 벡터를 추출하여 검색하는 방법이 많이 연구되어 왔다. 특히 색상 정보는 이미지를 검색하기 위하여 중요한 정보로 사용되고 있다. 따라서 색상 이미지를 검색하기 위해서 평균 RGB, HSI값을 이용하거나 히스토그램을 이용하는 방식이 많이 사용 되어왔다. 본 논문에서는 사람이 시각적으로 보고 느끼는 색상(H), 채도(S), 명도(I) 방식을 이용한 HSI값을 사용하여 색상 의미를 이용한 지능적 이미지 검색 기법을 제안하고 알고리즘을 설명한다. 색상 의미(Color Semantics)란 사람의 시각적인 특징을 기반으로 칼라 이미지에 적용하여 감성 형용사 기반으로 검색할 수 있는 방법이다. 색상 의미를 이용한 지능적 이미지 검색은 색상-기반 질의(color-based retrieval)를 제공할 뿐만 아니라 인간의 감성이나 느낌에 의한 의미-기반 질의(semantic-based retrieval)방식을 가능하게 한다. 즉, "시원한 이미지" 혹은 "부드러운 이미지"를 검색하는 방식이다. 따라서 사용자의 검색 의도를 보다 정확하게 표현할 수 있으며, 검색의 결과에 대한 만족도를 향상 시킬 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose the LPC+-file for efficient indexing of high-dimensional image data. With the proliferation of multimedia data, there Is an increasing need to support the indexing and retrieval of high-dimensional image data. Recently, the LPC-file (5) that based on vector approximation has been developed for indexing high-dimensional data. The LPC-file gives good performance especially when the dataset is uniformly distributed. However, compared with for the uniformly distributed dataset, its performance degrades when the dataset is clustered. We improve the performance of the LPC-file for the strongly clustered image dataset. The basic idea is to adaptively partition the data space to find subspaces with high-density clusters and to assign more bits to them than others to increase the discriminatory power of the approximation of vectors. The total number of bits used to represent vector approximations is rather less than that of the LPC-file since the partitioned cells in the LPC+-file share the bits. An empirical evaluation shows that the LPC+-file results in significant performance improvements for real image data sets which are strongly clustered.

일반적인 색 정보추출방법으로 색 히스토그램(Color Histogram)은 색의 분포나 응집성, 질감에 대한 구분능력이 없다는 단점을 가지고 있어 정환한 이미지 유사성 비교를 위해 추가적인 정보를 요구한다. Androutsos등은 Haar Wavelet 변환을 통해 이미지의 방향성 질감정보를 구하였다[1]. 하지만 이 방법은 Haar Wavelet 변환의 특성으로 인해 정확한 방향성 정보를 얻을 수 없었다. 본 논문에서는 인접 픽셀(pixel)값의 편차(deviaiton)를 이용하여 방향성 정보를 추출 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제안하였고, Brodatz 112 질감 이미지와 실재 자연사진을 통해 방향성 질감의 성능을 평가하였다.

This study surveyed the image of hospital emergency medical technicians with 122 emergency medical service providers (doctors and nurses) working at tertiary medical institutions in Daejeon and Chungcheongnam.do in order to provide basic materials for enhancing the status and professional image of hospital emergency medical technicians. According to the results of this study, the overall image was $3.27{\pm}0.34$, and by its sub.area, professional image was highest and role image was lowest. By item, 'Maintain a friendly relations with doctors' was highest, and 'Arrogant and negligent in job performance' was lowest. In order to enhance their image, hospital emergency medical technicians need to assume a sincere attitude toward patients and colleagues consistently, to strengthen their professionalism, and to carry out their duties and roles faithfully. What is more, the association should take proper measures and to establish the sound image of emergency medical technician as a professional through active campaigns and monitoring using mass media.

In this paper, we propose a new web image caption extraction method considering the positional relation between a caption and an image and the lexical similarity between a caption and the main text containing the caption. The positional relation between a caption and an image represents how the caption is located with respect to the distance and the direction of the corresponding image. The lexical similarity between a caption and the main text indicates how likely the main text generates the caption of the image. Compared with previous image caption extraction approaches which only utilize the independent features of image and captions, the proposed approach can improve caption extraction recall rate, precision rate and 28% F-measure by including additional features of positional relation and lexical similarity.

Red tide is a temporary natural phenomenon involving harmful algal blooms (HABs) in company with a changing sea color from normal to red or reddish brown, and which has a bad influence on coast environments and sea ecosystems. The HABs have inflicted massive mortality on fin fish and shellfish, damaging the economies of fisheries for almost every year from 1990 in South Korea. There have been many studies on red tide due to increasing damage from red tide on fishing and aquaculture industry. However, internal study of automatic red tide image classification is not enough. Especially, extraction of matching center features for recognizing algae image object is difficult because over 200 species of algae in the world have a different size and features. Previously studies used a few type of red tide algae for image classification. In this paper, we proposed the red tide image recognition method using NMF and revison of rotation angle for enhancing of recognition of red tide algae image.

The ability to extract useful information from an image, such as the human eye, is an interface technology essential for AI computer implementation. The building recognition technology has a lower recognition rate than other image recognition technologies due to the various building shapes, the ambient noise images according to the season, and the distortion by angle and distance. The computer vision based building recognition algorithms presented so far has limitations in discernment and expandability due to manual definition of building characteristics. This paper introduces the deep learning CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) model, and proposes new method to improve the recognition rate even by changes of building images caused by season, illumination, angle and perspective. This paper introduces the partial images that characterize the building, such as windows or wall images, and executes the training with whole building images. Experimental results show that the building recognition rate is improved by about 14% compared to the general CNN model.
