For the applications like video indexing, text understanding, and automatic captions localization system, real-time localization of captions is an essential task. This paper presents a algorithm for localization of captions in MPEG compression images based on I frame. In this algorithm, caption text regions are segmented from background images using their distinguishing texture characteristics and chrominance information. Unlike previously published algorithms which fully decompress the video sequence before extracting the text regions, this algorithm locates candidate caption text region directly in the DCT compressed domain.

In this paper, the stroke-based text extraction algorithm for digital video is proposed. The proposed algorithm consists of four stages such as text detection, text localization, text segmentation and geometric verification. The text detection stage ascertains that a given frame in a video sequence contains text. This procedure is accomplished by morphological operations for the pixels with higher possibility of being stroke-based text, which is called as seed points. For the text localization stage, morphological operations for the edges including seed points ate adopted followed by horizontal and vortical projections. Text segmentation stage is to classify projected areas into text and background regions according to their intensity distribution. Finally, in the geometric verification stage, the segmented area are verified by using prior knowledge of video text characteristics.

Text information in a digital video provides crucial information to acquire semantic information of the video. In the proposed method. text candidate regions are extracted from input sequence by using characteristics of stroke and text candidate regions are localized by using projection to produce text bounding boxes. Bounding boxes containing text regions are verified geometrically and each bounding box existing same location is tracked by calculating matching measure. which is defined as the mean of absolute difference between bounding boxes in the current frame and previous frames. Finally. text regions are enhanced using temporal redundancy of bounding boxes to produce final results. Experimental results for various videos show the validity of the proposed method.

In this paper, we proposed the method for detecting text region on image using DCT-coefficient and transition-map analysis. The detecting rate of traditional method for detecting text region using DCT-coefficient analysis is high, but false positive detecting rate also is high and the method using transition-map often reject true text region in step of verification because of sticky threshold. To overcome these problems, we generated PTRmap(Promising Text Region map) through DCT-coefficient analysis and applied PTRmap to method for detecting text region using transition map. As the result, the false positive detecting rate decreased as compared with the method using DCT-coefficient analysis, and the detecting rate increased as compared with the method using transition map.

최근 COVID-19로 인해 대중의 의학 분야 관심이 증가하고 있다. 대부분의 의학문서는 전문용어인 의학용어로 구성되어 있어 대중이 이를 보고 이해하기에 어려움이 있다. 의학용어를 쉬운 뜻으로 풀이하는 모델을 이용한다면 대중이 의학 문서를 쉽게 이해할 수 있을 것이다. 이런 문제를 완화하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 Transformer 기반 번역 모델을 이용한 의학용어 탐지 및 해석 모델을 제안한다. 번역 모델에 적용하기 위해 병렬말뭉치가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 다음과 같은 방법으로 병렬말뭉치를 구축한다: 1) 의학용어 사전을 구축한다. 2) 의학 드라마의 자막으로부터 의학용어를 찾아서 그 뜻풀이로 대체한다. 3) 원자막과 뜻풀이가 포함된 자막을 나란히 배열한다. 구축된 병렬말뭉치를 이용해서 Transformer 번역모델에 적용하여 전문용어를 찾아서 해석하는 모델을 구축한다. 각 문장은 음절 단위로 나뉘어 사전학습 된 KoCharELECTRA를 이용해서 임베딩한다. 제안된 모델은 약 69.3%의 어절단위 BLEU 점수를 보였다. 제안된 의학용어 해석기를 통해 대중이 의학문서를 좀 더 쉽게 접근할 수 있을 것이다.

New polysulfone scintillation proximity membranes were prepared by impregnating Cerium Activated Yttrium Silicate (CAYS), an inorganic fluor, in a membrane structure. The membranes were applied to detect the radionuclide contamination directly without the aid of a scintillation cocktail. The preparation of membranes was divided into two processes. A supporting polymer film was made of casting solutions consisting of polysulfone and solvent, their cast film being solidified by vacuum evaporation. CAYS-dispersed polymer solutions were cast over the first, solidified polymer films and coagulated either by evaporating solvent or by exchanging solvent in the solution with nonsolvent in a coagulation bath. The prepared membranes had two distinguished, but tight1y attached, double layers: one is the supporting layer of dense polymer film and the other the detecting layer consisting of CAYS and polymer. The radionuclide counting results revealed that the prepared membranes were efficient to monitor radioactivity contamination with reliable counting ability.

In South Korea, sewage pipeline exploration devices have been developed using high resolution digital cameras of 2 mega-pixels or more. On the other hand, most devices are less than 300 kilo-pixels. Moreover, because 100 kilo-pixels devices are used widely, the environment for image processing is very poor. In this study, very low resolution ($240{\times}320$ = 76,800 pixels) images were adapted when it is difficult to detect cracks. Considering that the images of sewers in South Korea have very low resolution, this study selected low resolution images to be investigated. An automatic crack detection technique was studied using digital image processing technology for low resolution images of sewage pipelines. The authors developed a program to automatically detect cracks as 6 steps based on the MATLAB functions. In this study, the second step covers an algorithm developed to find the optimal threshold value, and the fifth step deals with an algorithm to determine cracks. In step 2, Otsu's threshold for images with a white caption was higher than that for an image without caption. Therefore, the optimal threshold was found by decreasing the Otsu threshold by 0.01 from the beginning. Step 5 presents an algorithm that detects cracks by judging that the length is 10 mm (40 pixels) or more and the width is 1 mm (4 pixels) or more. As a result, the crack detection performance was good despite the very low-resolution images.

Double-layered polymer films to assay the radioactive contamination were formulated using polysulfone (PSF) and cerium activated yttrium silicate (CAYS), consisting of a dense support layer and a CAYS-holding top layer prepared via the diffusion-induced phase inversion. As the vapor exposure process was omitted, the CAYS-holding layer showed a typical asymmetric structure, with CAYS being transfixed into the polymer network spread with large macropores. With the increase in vapor exposure time before immersion, morphology of the films transformed from asymmetric to sponge-like structures, with CAYS being localized in cellular structure. The border structure between the two layers reflects the phase inversion behavior of a cast solution during the coagulation. In the radioactive detection, the polymer phase in a film holding a sponge-like structure is so dense that the radionuclides, deposited on the film, could not filter through the phase, consequently resulting in the loss in the detection efficiency of the film.

본 논문에서는 저해상도 한글 영상을 자소 단위로 분리하는 방법을 제안한다. 비디오 자막이나 저해상도 스캔 영상의 경우 자소간 획이 접촉되거나 잡영이 많이 포함되어 기존의 자소 분할 방법으로는 한계가 있다. 한자 문자열을 문자 단위로 분할하는데 사용된 비선형 분할 경로 알고리즘을 한글 낱자 영상에 적용하여 자소 단위로 분할한다. 기존의 분할 경로 알고리즘을 한글 자소 분할에 효과적으로 적용하기 위해서 우세점 탐지 알고리즘을 이용하여 자소간 접촉점을 찾고 이를 바탕으로 생성된 분할 경로에 따라 여러 개의 자소 후보 영상이 생성된다. 자소 영상을 자소 인식기로 인식한 결과 높은 인식률을 보이는 것을 실험을 통하여 확인하였다.
