In this paper we propose a new background motion compensation method which can be applicable to moving object detection with a moving monocular camera. To estimate the background motion, a series of image warpings are carried out for each pair of the corresponding patches, defined by the fixed-size lattice, based on the motion information extracted from the feature points surrounded by the patches and the estimated camera motion. Experiment results proved that the proposed has approximately 50% faster in execution time and 8dB higher in PSNR comparing to a conventional method.

This paper proposes a hand-posture recognition method using reinforcement learning for the performance improvement of vision-based hand-posture recognition. The difficulties in vision-based hand-posture recognition lie in viewing direction dependency and self-occlusion problem due to the high degree-of-freedom of human hand. General approaches to deal with these problems include multiple camera approach and methods of limiting the relative angle between cameras and the user's hand. In the case of using multiple cameras, however, fusion techniques to induce the final decision should be considered. Limiting the angle of user's hand restricts the user's freedom. The proposed method combines angular features and appearance features to describe hand-postures by a two-layered data structure and reinforcement learning. The validity of the proposed method is evaluated by appling it to the hand-posture recognition system using three cameras.

It is well-known that non-metric digital cameras have to be calibrated for the close-range photogrammetry. But, the self-calibration is still not an easy task because it requires rather a large calibration site of accurate control points, multiple image acquisitions in different positions, and accurate image point measurements that are quite labor-intensive and time-consuming. Based on the premise, this study carried out check point accuracy analysis from self-calibration of different control point designs and photo combinations. The test results showed that the calibration using three photos covering three-dimensional control points produced high accuracy, but control points on a plane could attain the comparable accuracy with four photos including a 90-degree rotated photo. We then compared the target accuracy of on-site self-calibration using flat control points to that of laboratory-self calibration and observed comparable results.

생산시스템에 대한 연구는 주로 hybrid 생산 시스템 효율성의 우위를 비교적 단순한 생산환경에서 부각시키는데 초점이 맞추어져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 실제 생산 환경에 근접한 모형을 세우고 MRP생산 시스템과 JIT 생산 시스템을 통합하는데 있어서 고려할 요소로서 기존의 MRP에 의한 간반의 자동 생성 이외의 다기능 작업자와 간반의 우선순위의 추가 요소를 고려하였다. 본 실험에서는 유휴한 상태의 다기능 작업자를 이를 필요로 하는 work centers로 배치하는 법칙을 도출하였고 간반의 우선순위를 부여함으로써 보다 재고 수준을 줄여 제품의 흐름생산에 가깝도록 하였다. 위 실험은 카메라 제조업체를 대상으로 모의실험은 Arena를 이용하였다.

To find out characteristics of TV home shopping's virtual space deepness styling, this study had analysis characteristics of space deepness which is showed on flat TV screen with actually aired 6 dinnerware sales case, at $C^*$ home shopping, March.2005~November.2010, and survey consumer's emotional verbal image according to space styling character to get space deepness, which were shown on flat TV screen with camera angle, and research mutual relation with consumer preference. Also consumer's typical emotional verbal images for each space styling images for brand dinner ware sales had been extracted with reliability analysis, factor analysis, and multi dimensional scaling MDS using SPSS. Styling characteristics of space deepness were contrast of size, layering, vertical arrangement, and perspective arrangement, and used camera angles were bird's eye view, hi angle, and eye level. Result from the research is, highly marked consumer preferred styling material had a deep corelation to material's main factor and perceived emotional verbal images. Therefore this research could bring forward to new consumer preferred styling characteristics according to camera angle. Furthermore, it will be possible to make a study of preferred styling material through evaluation of quantitative spectators of in this area.

Motion estimation (ME) that limits the performance of image quality and encoding speed has been developed to reduce temporal redundancy in video sequences and plays an important role in digital video compression. But it is computational demanding part of the encoder. Multi-view video is obtained by capturing one three-dimensional scene with many cameras at different positions. ME for Multi-view video requires high computational complexity. To reduce computational complexity and maintain the image quality, a fast motion estimation method is proposed in this paper. The proposed method uses a hierarchical search strategy. This strategy method consists of modified diamond search patten, multi gird diamond search pattern, and raster search pattern. These search patterns place search points symmetrically and evenly that can cover the overall search area not to fall into the local minimum or exploits the characteristics of the distribution of motion vectors to place the search points. Experiment results show that the speedup improvement of the proposed method over TZ search method (JMVC) can be up to 1.2 ~3 times faster while maintaining similar video quality and bit rates.

For camera calibration, a checkerboard is generally used to determine the principal point, focal length, and lens distortions. The checkerboard has a planar and three-dimensional shape, and camera calibration parameters are affected by the size of the checkerboard, the placement of the target, and the number of target points. In this study, the accuracies of the types of checkerboards were compared using checkpoints for stereo camera calibration, and the purpose of this study was to propose the best performance checkerboard. The checkerboard with large flat shape showed comparatively high accuracy through comparison with the check points. However, due to the size of the checkerboard, it was inconvenient to move and rotate, and there was a disadvantage in that it was difficult to shoot so that the target points could all appear in the stereo camera. The checkerboard, which was manufactured in a small size in a flat shape, was easy to move and rotate but had the lowest three-dimensional accuracy. The checkerboard with targets with height values had the hassle of having to determine the three-dimensional coordinates of the target points by using observation equipment for camera calibration, but it was small in size, convenient to move and rotate, and showed the highest three-dimensional accuracy.

Surveillance cameras installed in tunnels capture the various video frames effected by dynamic and variable factors. In addition, localizing and managing the cameras in tunnel is not affordable, and quality of capturing frame is effected by time. In this paper, we introduce a new method to detect and track the vehicles in tunnel by using surveillance cameras installed in a tunnel. It is difficult to detect the video frames directly from surveillance cameras due to the motion blur effect and blurring effect on lens by dirt. In order to overcome this difficulties, two new methods such as Differential Frame/Non-Maxima Suppression (DFNMS) and Haar Cascade Detector to track cars are proposed and investigated for their feasibilities. In the study, it was shown that high precision and recall values could be achieved by the two methods, which then be capable of providing practical data and key information to an automatic accident detection system in tunnels.

CCTV-applied monitoring is an effective measure to suppress potential crimes and record objective relationship; however, there is no methodology that can quantitatively compare and assess the afore-mentioned effects. Thus, this study intended to construct the methodology and analysis application that can measure the changes in the space-corresponding performance of CCTVs depending on installation measures by using 3-dimenstional virtual simulation technology. For analysis, the raster-based Isovist theory was 3-dimensionally expanded and the amount of incident sight line to each point was accumulated. At the same time, the amount of overlapped monitoring in the CCTV cameras that were connected to each measurement node was accumulated for cross-analysis. By applying the examples and analyzing the results, it was possible to construct an analysis application in use of collision detection model and quantify the changes of monitoring performance depending on positioning alternative of the cameras. Moreover, it enabled intuitive review and supplementation by reproducing visible shadow areas in a graph.
