본 논문에서는 고정된 카메라에서 초기 프레임을 참조하여 현재 프레임에 새롭게 유입된 물체의 실시간 분류 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘의 실시간 분류 처리를 위하여 복잡도를 최소화 하였다. 먼저 전경과 배경을 구분하는 이진 분류 영상을 추출하기 위하여 DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) 기법을 사용한다. DCT는 기존 공간영역에서 Texture를 분석하는 방식보다 더욱 정확하게 Texture를 분석할 수 있다. 이는 주파수 영역에서 Texture 특징 분석이 더욱 용이하고 각 요소 안에 intensity와 texture 정보를 종합적으로 고려할 수 있기 때문이다. 또한 DCT 계산 복잡도를 최소화하기 위하여 DCT 수행 전에 색 정보를 이용하여 미리 분류 영역을 분석함으로써 처리 효율을 극대화 하였다. 마지막으로 생성된 이진 분류 영상을 자연스럽게 matting하기 위하여 Guided 필터 사용을 제안한다. Guided 필터는 guidance 정보를 통해 입력 영상을 전반적으로 개선할 수 있지만 intensity가 평탄한 영역 등에서 그 한계를 보여주므로 본 논문에서는 Guided 필터의 단점을 개선하는 방법을 추가적으로 제안한다.

Recently, a foreground-background segmentation using codebook model has been researched actively. The codebook is created one for each pixel in the image. The codewords are vector-quantized representative values of same positional training samples from the input image sequences. The training is necessary for a long time in the most of codebook-based algorithms. In this paper, the initial codebook model is generated simply using median operation with several image frames. The initial codebook is updated to adapt the dynamic changes of backgrounds based on the frequencies of codewords that matched to input pixel during the detection process. We implemented the proposed algorithm in the environment of visual c++ with opencv 3.0, and tested to some of the public video sequences from PETS2009. The test sequences contain the various scenarios including quasi-periodic motion images, loitering objects in the local area for a short time, etc. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has good performance compared to the GMM algorithm and standard codebook algorithm.

This paper presents a hole-filling algorithm based on extrapolating spatial-temporal background information used in view synthesis for free-viewpoint television. A new background codebook is constructed and updated in order to extract reliable temporal background information. In addition, an estimation of spatial local background values is conducted to discriminate an adaptive boundary between the background region and the foreground region as well as to update the information about the hole region. The holes then are filled by combining the spatial background information and the temporal background information. In addition, an exemplar-based inpainting technique is used to fill the rest of holes, in which a priority function using background-depth information is defined to determine the order in which the holes are filled. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed algorithm outperformed the other comparative methods about average 0.3-0.6 dB, and that it synthesized satisfactory views regardless of video characteristics and type of hole region.

As the world is trying to establish smart city, unmanned vehicle control systems are being widely used. This paper writes about an unmanned parking control system that uses an adaptive background image modeling method, suggesting the method of updating the background image, modeled with an adaptive Gaussian mixture model, in both global and local way according to the moving object. Specifically, this paper focuses on suggesting two methods; a method of minimizing the influence of a moving object on a background image and a method of accurately updating the background image by quickly removing afterimages of moving objects within the area of interest to be monitored. In this paper, through the implementation of the unmanned vehicle control system, we proved that the proposed system can quickly and accurately distinguish both moving and static objects such as vehicles from the background image.

Moving object detection is to detect foreground object different from background scene in a new incoming image frame and is an essential ingredient process in some image processing applications such as intelligent visual surveillance, HCI, object-based video compression and etc. Most of previous object detection algorithms are still computationally heavy so that it is difficult to develop real-time multi-channel moving object detection in a workstation or even one-channel real-time moving object detection in an embedded system using them. Foreground mask correction necessary for a more precise object detection is usually accomplished using morphological operations like opening and closing. Morphological operations are not computationally cheap and moreover, they are difficult to be rendered to run simultaneously with the subsequent connected component labeling routine since they need quite different type of processing from what the connected component labeling does. In this paper, we first devise a fast and precise foreground mask correction algorithm, "Neighbor Foreground Pixel Propagation (NFPP)" which utilizes neighbor pixel checking employed in the connected component labeling. Next, we propose a novel moving object detection method based on the devised foreground mask correction algorithm, NFPP where the connected component labeling routine can be executed simultaneously with the foreground mask correction. Through experiments, it is verified that the proposed moving object detection method shows more precise object detection and more than 4 times faster processing speed for a image frame and videos in the given the experiments than the previous moving object detection method using morphological operations.

There is a little agreement about the characteristics of the company town proposed by the Federation of the Korean Industries(FKI). So the purpose of this study is to figure out the FKI's company town, It is begun with the history and the characteristics of the Western company town and the company town of Japanese type. The process of the company town issue from the first proposal of the FKI is examined. Particularly, the definitions, the examples and the expected effects of the company town in the reports supporting the FKI's proposal are explored. Western company town could be characterized by the economic simplicity and the important role of single firm for supply of jobs, houses, etc. In the light of the results of this study, the FKI's company town was based on the western company town especially in definition, influenced by the company town of Japanese type and then identified with industrial clusters. Consequently there is some disaccordance among the definitions, the examples and the expected effects of the FKI's company town. Giving shape to the FKI's company town project in desirable way, it should be developed in small scale at first, with many related enterprises and public institutions to meet their spatial demand and in related with the other new town projects, for example, future innovative city and innovative cluster.

In order to automatically provide information on fruits in agricultural related broadcasting contents, instance image segmentation of target fruits is required. In addition, the information on the 3D pose of the corresponding fruit may be meaningfully used. This paper represents research that provides information about tomatoes in video content. A large amount of data is required to learn the instance segmentation, but it is difficult to obtain sufficient training data. Therefore, the training data is generated through a data augmentation technique based on a small amount of real images. Compared to the result using only the real images, it is shown that the detection performance is improved as a result of learning through the synthesized image created by separating the foreground and background. As a result of learning augmented images using images created using conventional image pre-processing techniques, it was shown that higher performance was obtained than synthetic images in which foreground and background were separated. To estimate the pose from the result of object detection, a point cloud was obtained using an RGB-D camera. Then, cylinder fitting based on least square minimization is performed, and the tomato pose is estimated through the axial direction of the cylinder. We show that the results of detection, instance image segmentation, and cylinder fitting of a target object effectively through various experiments.

본 논문에서는 영상 시퀀스 상에서 물체의 가려짐을 고려하여 상대적인 깊이 순서에 의해 정렬되는 계층을 분리하기 위한 새로운 움직임 분할 방법을 제안한다. 블록을 기반으로 한 움직임 추정 및 클러스터링 과정을 통하여 각 계층에 대한 블록영역을 구하고, 이 블록영역에 대하여 윤곽선 추출을 이용하여 각 계층에 대한 정확한 객체를 분리할 수 있다. 이러한 움직임 분할방법을 통한 동영상의 계층적인 표현은 영상에서 원하지 않는 물체, 전경, 배경의 제거나 기존의 영상을 이용한 새로운 영상의 합성에 이용될 수 있으며, 분할을 통해 얻어진 객체는 영상 압축, 영상 합성 등을 위한 데이터베이스에 저장되어 응용될 수 있다.

정부는 현재 직면한 교통문제 해결의 필요성을 인식한 후 1993년부터 대통령 직속 SOC 투자기획단에서 ITS 도입문제를 검토하기 시작하여 1997년 「국가 ITS 기본계획」을 수립히였다. 이를 토대로 정부 및 산·학·연등이 능동적으로 참여하여 ITS 사업이 추진되어 왔다. 그러나 1998년 외환위기에 직면하면서 ITS 사업에 대한 투자 감소등의 환경변화와 동시에 ITS 전문가들은 공급자 중심에서 최종 사용자 중심의 기본계획의 필요성을 제기하면서 ITS 기본계획 개정 필요성이 제기되어 더 현실적이고 융통성이 있는 기본계획을 수립하게 되었다. 이러한 배경을 기본으로 본 논문은 개정된 국가 ITS 기본계획의 내용 즉, 제공서비스, 단계별 구축계획, 단계별 예산 등을 살펴본다.
