본 논문에서는 단일 영상에 포함된 광원의 분광분포를 추정하는 광원추정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 광원 추정 방법은 두 단계로 이루어져 있다. 첫째, 변형된 회색계 가정(modified gray world assumption)을 이용하여 부분적으로 광원의 영향을 배제한 후 밝으면서도 무채색에 가까운 최대 무채색 영역을 찾아 그 영역의 표면 분광 반사율을 구한다. 이때 최대 무채색 영역의 표면 분광 반사율은 1269개의 Munsell 색 표본에 대하여 주성분 분석 방법을 이용하여 추정하였다. 둘째, 주어진 Munsell 색 표본과 대표 광원의 조합으로 반사광의 모집단을 만들었다. 다음 최대 무채색 영역의 각 화소와 반사광 모집단과의 색차를 비교하여 최대 무채색 영역과 색차가 가장 적은 반사광 표본을 선택하고 이를 최대 무채색 영역에 대한 반사광의 분광분포로 정의한다. 최종적으로 최저 무채색 영역의 반사광 분광분포를 해당하는 표면 분광반사율로 나누어줌으로써 영상에 포함된 광원의 분광분포를 추정한다. 제안한 알고리듬의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 유색 광원에 조명된 영상에 대한 광원 추정 실험을 하였으며 기존의 방법과 추정된 광원의 분광 분포 비교 및 색차 비교를 통해 그 타당성을 검증하였다.

In this paper, an illuminant estimation algorithm of a chromatic digital images proposed. The proposed illumination estimation method has two phases. First, the surface spectral reflectances are recovered. In this case, the surface spectral reflectances recovered are limited to the maximum highlight region (MHR) which is the most achromatic and highly bright region of an image after applying intermediate color constancy process using a modified gray world algorithm. Next, the surface reflectances of the maximum highlight region are estimated using the principal component analysis method along with a set of given Munsell samples. Second, the spectral distribution of reflected lights of MHR is selected from the spectral database. That is a color difference is compared between the reflected lights of the MHR and the spectral database that is the set of reflected lights built by the given Munsell samples and a set of illuminants. Then the closest colors from the spectral database are selected. Finally, the illuminant of an image can be calculated dividing the average spectral distributions of reflected lights of MHR by the average surface reflectances of the MHR. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm, experiments with artificial and real captured color-biased scenes were performed and numerical comparison examined. The proposed method was effective in estimating the spectral of the given illuminant sunder various illuminants.

Purpose: The response technology is needed to prevent the spill of highly toxic oil contaminants in advance. Therefore, this paper described the results of an experimental study to predict the engineering properties of the developed reactive material. Method: Compaction tests and spectral information acquisition experiments were conducted on the reactive materials, and the results were evaluated. In addition, the correlation between spectral information and maximum dry unit weight was analyzed to evaluate the possibility of predicting the engineering properties for reactive materials. Result: The compaction test results showed that the maximum dry unit weight was in the range of approximately 9kN/m³ to 10kN/m³. The spectral information confirmed that the maximum reflectance decreased as the polynorbornene decreased. Conclusion: It was confirmed that the maximum dry unit weight of the reactive material for absorbing oil contaminants can be predicted using the maximum reflectance according to the component ratio of the reactive material.

This paper proposes an illuminant estimation algorithm that estimates the spectral power distribution of an incident light source from a single image. The proposed illumination recovery procedure has two phases. First, the surface spectral reflectances are recovered in the maximum achromatic region (MAR) which is the most achromatic and highly bright region of an image after removing partially the effect of illumination using a modified gray world algorithm. Here, the surface reflectances of MAR are estimated using the principal component analysis method along with a set of given 1269 Munsell samples. Second, the Population of reflected lights is determined with 1269 Munsell samples and a set of illuminations then the spectral distribution of re(looted lights of MAR is selected from the spectral database. That is, color differences are compared between the reflected lights of the MAR and the spectral database, which is the set of reflected lights built by the given set of Munsell samples and illuminants. Then the closest colors from the spectral database are selected. Finally, the illuminant of an image can be calculated dividing the average spectral distributions of reflected lights of MAR by the average surface reflectances of the MAR. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm, experiments with artificial scenes, which are exposed to chromatic illuminants, were performed and the spectral distribution of estimated illumination and color difference are compared with results of the conventional method.

This paper proposes a new color constancy algorithm using the maximum luminance surface. This method uses a linear model which represents the characteristics of human visual system. The most important process of linear model is the estimation of the spectral distributions of illumination from an input image. To estimate of the spectral distributions of illumination from an input image, we first estimate spectral distribution functions of reflected light on the brightest surface. Then, we estimate surface reflectance functions corresponding to the maximum luminance surface using a principal component analysis of the given munsell chips. We finally estimate the spectral distributions of illumination in an image. Using an estimated illumination, we recover an image by scaling it regularly for the lightness calibration. From the experimental results, the proposed method was effective in recovering the color images compared with others.

In general, a color of an image is represented by using red, green, and blue channels in a RGB camera system. However, only information of three channels are limited to estimate a spectral reflectance of a real scene. Because of this, the RGB camera system can not accurately represent the color. To overcome this limitation and represent an accurate color, researches to estimate the spectral reflectance by using a multi-channel camera system are being actively proceeded. Recently, a reflectance estimation method adaptively constructing a similar training set from a traditional training set according to a camera response by using a spectral similarity was introduced. However, in this method, an accuracy of the similar training set is reduced because the spectral similarity based on an average and a maximum distances was applied. In this paper, a reflectance estimation method applied a spectral similarity based on a correlation coefficient is proposed to improve the accuracy of the similar training set. Firstly, the correlation coefficient between the similar training set and the spectral reflectance obtained by Wiener estimation method is calculated. Secondly, the similar training set is constructed from the traditional training set according to the correlation coefficient. Finally, Wiener estimation method applied the similar training set is performed to estimate the spectral reflectance. To evaluate a performance of the proposed method with previous methods, experimental results are compared. As a result, the proposed method showed the best performance.

최근 들어 국지성호우와 장마, 태풍에 의한 자연재해는 모든 분야에서 심각한 영향을 미치고 있다. 자연재해로 발생한 토사는 하천, 농업용 저수지, 댐 및 하구를 메워 흐름을 방해하고 저서생태계에 미치는 영향은 매우 크다. 이러한 토사는 농업용 저수지와 홍수 조절용 구조물의 사용 수명을 단축시키고, 하상을 높여 흐름을 방해하거나 변화시켜 하천 범람을 발생하기도 한다. 한편 하천범람과 제방 붕괴 등은 농지 침수는 물론 작물의 성장을 방해하는 등 많은 경제적 손실을 가져오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 토사의 농도와 분광반사특성의 상호관계를 알아보기 위하여 분광복사계(Li-1800)를 이용하여 미리 제작한 수조 안의 토사(실트질, 모래질) 농도를 변화시켜 토사농도에 따른 분광반사 특성을 파악하고, 그 특징에 대해 검토, 고찰하였다. 연구결과 실트질의 체적반사율이 모래에 비해 약 40% 높게 나타났으며, 실트와 모래 모두 $554{\sim}588nm$영역에서 최대반사율을 나타내었다. 상관분석 결과 각 토사의 상관계수는 실트질이 $0.63{\sim}0.99$, 모래가 $0.73{\sim}0.96$의 값을 나타냈으며, 두 토양 모두 $550{\sim}900nm$영역에서 r>0.90의 높은 상관성을 보였다. 또한, 토사농도에 따른 반사특성은 실트질의 경우 토사 농도가 $0{\sim}60%$까지 $470{\sim}740nm$영역에서 큰 상승폭을 보인 반면, 모래의 경우 토사농도가 25%까지 크게 증가하였으나 30%이상의 농도에서는 변화 폭이 매우 적어지는 특징을 보였다. 토사농도의 변화에 따른 탁수의 분광 반사특성은 토사의 종류에 따라 크게 다르다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study describes the evaluation results on the effect of soil particle surfaces coated with various hydrophobic conditions on spectral information according to water content. Wettability test and spectral information evaluation test were performed on the hydrophobic coated standard sand. When the standard sand was coated with 1%, 3%, and 5% hydrophobic, the contact angles of sand-water interface were 130°~143°, 129°~144°, and 131°~144°, respectively. This means that the contact angle increased as the degree of hydrophobic coating increased at the same drying time, but the range of the contact angle had the same wettability. This means that the contact angle increases as the hydrophobic coating degree increases at the same drying time, whereas the contact angle range has the same wettability. As a result of spectral information evaluation, the maximum spectral reflectance of the dried sand with hydrophobic condition decreased compared to that of the hydrophilic sand, as the degree of hydrophobic increased. However, the maximum spectral reflectance was increased by increasing the degree of hydrophobic under the same water content conditions.

In this paper we propose a new method that can be estimation the spectral power distribution of the light source from three-band images. the light source is estimated by dividing the reflected spectral power distribution of the maximum achromatic region(L(λ)) by the corresponding surface reflectance(Ο(λ)). In order to obtain reflected spectral power distribution of the maximum achromatic region from three-bend images, a modified gray world assumption algorithm is adapted. And the maximum surface reflectance is estimated using the principal component analysis method along with achromatic population. The achromatic population is created from a set of given Munsell color chips whose chroma vector is less than threshold. Cumulative contribution ratio of principal components from the first to the third for classified achromatic population was about 99.75%. The reconstruction of illumination spectral power distribution by using achromatic population and three-band digital images captured under various light source was examined, and evaluated by RMSE between the original and reconstructed illumination spectral power distribution.
