In this paper, by using the Morphing, if the size of the eyes of both sides are not the same, we propose a method to correct the size of eyes area. First, by using the Haar-like feature from a input image that is input, to detect the shape of the eyes and face. After inverting the left and right eye region of one of the shape of the eyes detected sets the correspondence between the second with a line to control the shape of the eyes detected using eyes that is detected with canny edge, in the previous step. To the Warping to match the correspondence was then set in the previous step, an area of each eye. Then, I merge the image which merged in the eye area is detected from the original image. As a result, a system result of the experiment in the test image and face image seen from the front, the proposed, prove to be more efficient than a method of keying the size of the eye only.

하천환경조사는 하천의 전반적인 특성을 조사 분석하는 것으로 하천환경 조사결과는 하천관련사업의 기초자료로 사용된다. 하천환경조사의 기초조사에서는 현장답사를 통해 하천의 특성을 대략적으로 판단하고 하천 전구간의 물리적 구조와 식생의 분포, 중요 서식처 정보를 포함하는 RCS 지도(River Corridor Survey)를 작성한다. 기초조사를 위해서는 하천 전 구간에 대한 현장답사가 필요하기 때문에 많은 시간, 비용 그리고 인력이 필요하고, 육안 또는 사진을 통한 스케치로 이루어져 조사 결과가 정성적이고 작업자의 경험이나 능력에 따라 결과가 좌우된다는 한계가 있다. 따라서 하천환경조사를 좀 더 간편하고 과학적이며 경제적으로 조사하기 위해 최근 드론 영상을 이용한 조사 기술 개발에 대한 연구들이 증가하고 있다. 하지만 드론을 이용한 하천환경조사의 대부분은 RGB 영상을 이용하기 때문에 정밀한 하천환경 변화를 정량적으로 분석하는데 한계가 있다. 이를 극복하기 위한 대안으로 사람이 감지할 수 있는 빛의 영역 뿐 아니라 자외선과 적외선 영역의 분광특성을 이용하여 하천환경의 특성을 세밀하게 분류하는 것이 가능한 초분광센서를 드론에 탑재하여 하천환경을 조사하기 위한 기초 연구들이 시작되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 line scan 방식의 초분광센서를 드론에 탑재하여 초분광영상을 촬영하기 위한 드론 시스템을 구성하였고, 하나의 사진과 같이 초분광영상을 제작하기 위해 다양한 기하보정 기술을 적용하여 최적의 기하보정 방법을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 초분광영상의 기하보정은 각각의 초분광영상의 GCP와 대응점을 이용한 2차원 변환 방법 및 비선형 변환 방법을 적용하여 보정을 수행하였으며, 각 방법에 따른 정사보정 영상의 위치정확도를 검증하였다. 연구 결과 드론 기반의 초분광영상 촬영 및 기하 보정 방법을 제시하였다. 향후 하천환경조사 뿐만 아니라 다양한 분야의 원격탐사에 초분광영상을 활용하는데 도움이 될 것으로 기대한다.

This paper presents an image registration using Triangulation-based Local Transformation (TLT) applied to the remaining matched points after elimination of the matched points with gross error. The corners extracted using geometric mean-based corner detector are matched using Pearson's correlation coefficient and then accepted as initial matched points only when they satisfy the Left-Right Consistency (LRC) check. We finally accept the remaining matched points whose RANdom SAmple Consensus (RANSAC)-based global transformation (RGT) errors are smaller than a predefined outlier threshold. After Delaunay triangulated irregular networks (TINs) are created using the final matched points on reference and sensed images, respectively, affine transformation is applied to every corresponding triangle and then all the inner pixels of the triangles on the sensed image are transformed to the reference image coordinate. The proposed algorithm was tested using KOMPSAT-2 images and the results showed higher image registration accuracy than the RANSAC-based global transformation.

In this paper, a new disparity detection algorithm which is robust to noise is presented. It detects the disparity of an arbitrary pixel through the iterative competition with neighbor pixels in the range of disparity. A diffusion process to improve stereo matching confidence is used prior to detecting disparity of an arbitrary pixel. It is used for aggregating initial matching measure of the difference map. If the image region for matching is too small, a wrong match might be found due to noise. On the contrary, the region is too big, it results in blurring of object boundaries. Therefore, we decide the image region for matching by using the diffusion process for aggregating matching measure, then detect the true disparity with proposed competition method to the distribution of matching measure. Through the proposed method we get the result of improving matching rate of 6.96% with real stereo imge. From the simulation with the stereo imge, the proposed disparity detection method significantly outperforms the conventional method to matching rate.

When a terrestrial UHD broadcasting service and a mobile HD broadcasting service are provided using the PLP function provided by ATSC 3.0 and domestic UHD broadcasting standard, a small amount of data may be additionally transmitted to further provide high quality UHD-3D broadcasting service. The left and right images of the stereoscopic image are input, one view image is encoded by the SHVC method, and the other view images are encoded by the SHVC method of the two-view cross-referencing method. However, since the base layers (BL) of the two encoders are mutually common, the two encoders correspond to encoders that generate one BL stream and two enhancement layer (EL) streams. The average encoding efficiency is 16% more efficient compared to the third independent HEVC encoding for the UHD-3D broadcast service. The proposed scheme reduces the fluctuation of PSNR per image frame and increases the image quality of minimum PSNR frame by 0.6dB.

Minimization of visual fatigue is important for production of high quality stereoscopic 3D contents. Vertical disparity of stereo images occurred during contents production is considered as the main factor of visual fatigue. To ensure correct stereoscopy vertical disparity needs to be eliminated. In this paper, a method for automated image alignment was proposed for Stereoscopic 3D contents generation and post-processing steps. The proposed method consists of two parts: rectification for image alignment and camera motion detection. The proposed method showed that its rectification performance was the most superior among the existing methods tested and that camera motion detection had a success rate of 98.35%. Through these evaluations, we confirmed that the proposed method can be effectively applied to 3D contents production.

Color consistency in stereoscopic contents is important for 3D display systems. Even with a stereo camera of the same model and with the same hardware settings, complex color discrepancies occur when acquiring high quality stereo images. In this paper, we propose an integrated color matching method that use cumulative histogram in global matching and estimated 3D-distance for the stage of local matching. The distance between the current pixel and the target local region is computed using depth information and the spatial distance in the 2D image plane. The 3D-distance is then used to determine the similarity between the current pixel and the target local region. The overall algorithm is described as follow; First, the cumulative histogram matching is introduced for reducing global color discrepancies. Then, the proposed local color matching is established for reducing local discrepancies. Finally, a weight-based combination of global and local matching is computed. Experimental results show the proposed algorithm has improved global and local error correction performance for stereoscopic contents with respect to other approaches.

In this paper, we propose a method for robustly estimating camera motion using fuzzy classification from the correspondences between two images. We use a RANSAC(Random Sample Consensus) algorithm to obtain accurate camera motion estimates in the presence of outliers. The drawback of RANSAC is that its performance depends on a prior knowledge of the outlier ratio. To resolve this problem the proposed method classifies samples into three classes(good sample set, bad sample set and vague sample set) using fuzzy classification. It then improves classification accuracy omitting outliers by iteratively sampling in only good sample set. The experimental results show that the proposed approach is very effective for computing a homography.

In order to overcome the limits of domestic image content market, entering the global market is inevitable and expanding our market volume in foreign market as in domestic market is an important factor that determines the future of Korea image content industry. Suggestions and discussions on policy for investments on domestic image content should be carried out to resolve such situation. Specially, the reason why cooperative system of central government and local government is in dire need is because cultural content industry support measures of central government is unsatisfactory and local government is not adequate enough to respond to the global environment because investment resources of small and medium enterprises in cultural content is insufficient. This paper intends to study cases of policy promoted by domestic local government and support cases of foreign countries when domestic image content industry is expanding into the global market, and to search for solutions from integrated functional perspective of central government and local government for international co-production environment. This study suggests the necessity of political connection in terms of central government strengthening assistance policy on dispersed policy of local government who operates 11 cultural industry promotion districts throughout the country. First, this study suggests the possibility of expanded international co-production by central government and local government through investment(fund).

This paper proposes an efficient walktlu-ough animation from two images of the same scene. To make animation easily and fast, Tour Into the Picture(TIP) enables walkthrough animation from single image but lacks the reality of its foreground object when the viewpoint moves from side to side, and view morphing uses only 2D transition between two images but restricts its camera path on the line between two views. By combining advantages of these two image-based techniques, this paper suggests a new virtual navigation technique which enable natural scene transformation when the viewpoint changes in the side-to-side direction as well as in the depth direction. In our method, view morphing is employed only in foreground objects , and background scene which is perceived carelessly is mapped into cube-like 3D model as in TIP, so as to save laborious 3D reconstruction costs and improve visual realism simultaneously. To do this, we newly define a camera transformation between two images from the relationship of the spidery mesh transformation and its corresponding 3D view change. The result animation shows that our method creates a realistic 3D virtual navigation using a simple interface.
