본 논문은 교통표지판을 자동으로 인식하는 방법에 관한 연구로 기존의 교통표지판 인식시스템에서는 인식하는데 걸리는 시간이 길고 잡음환경에서 인식률이 저하되며 변경된 교통표지판은 인식하지 못하는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기위해 컬러정보를 이용하여 교통표지판 영역을 추출하고 추출된 이미지를 인식하는데 다층퍼셉트론 신경망 알고리즘을 적용하여 교통표지판 인식시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 교통표지판의 컬러를 분석하여 영상에서 교통표지판 영역을 추출한다. 영역을 추출하는 방법은 RGB 컬러 공간으로부터 YUV, YIQ, CMYK 컬러 공간이 가지는 특성을 이용한다. 형태처리는 교통표지판의 기하학적 특성을 이용하여 군집화한다. 교통표지판 인식은 학습이 가능한 다층퍼셉트론의 오류역전파알고리즘을 적용하여 인식한다. 다층퍼셉트론 신경망 알고리즘은 패턴인식 분야에서 우수한 성능이 입증 되었다.

소비의 패턴이 이성소비에서 감성소비로 전환되면서 오감이 중요한 마케팅 요소로 등장하고 있다. 특히 시각적 요소는 인간이 사물을 인지하는데 있어서 83%정도의 영향력을 발휘하기 때문에 매우 중요하게 고려된다. 따라서 본 연구는 Color Code를 토대로 사용자의 성격을 분류하고 동시에 사용자가 선호하는 색상을 이용하여 색채배색을 제안하는 방법을 설명하고 있는데 성격을 RED, BLUE, WHITE, YELLOW의 4개의 컬러코드로 분류하기 위해서 ‘The Hartman Color Code Personality Profil’을 이용하였다. 조사결과 사용자의 컬러코드 중 가장 많은 코드는 BLUE코드였으며 선호도도 가장 높았다. 이러한 BLUE 코드의 특징 중 색채와 대응할 수 있는 감성어휘를 중심으로 색채배색안을 제시하고 이를 주택상품의 컬러마케팅에 이용하고자 하는 것이 본 연구의 목표이다.

A nonintrusive projection-based AR approach using complementary pattern has been recently proposed and applied to virtual studio. However, the approach faces the tradeoff between the pattern imperceptibility and compensation accuracy. To alleviate the tradeoff, we propose a content adaptive pattern concealment approach. The projector input images (AR images) are divided into rectangular regions and spatial variation and color distribution are computed in the regions. Based on the spatial variation and color distribution, we embed locally different strength of pattern images into different color channels. It is demonstrated that the proposed approach has two opposite advantages by comparing it with the previous (non-adaptive) approach through a variety of experiments and subjective evaluation. Our content adaptive approach can obtain the same performance using weaker pattern than the previous approach and thus significantly improve the imperceptibility of the pattern. On the contrary, our content adaptive approach can make strong pattern less perceptible and thus produce better compensation results.

A look-up table based vector adaptive filter is proposed in color inverse halftoning. Inverse halftoning converts halftone image into a continuous-tone image. The templates and training images are required in the process of look-up table based methods, which can be obtained from distributed patterns in the sample halftone images and their original images. Although the look-up table based methods usually are faster and show better performances in PSNR than other methods do, they show wide range of qualities depending on how they treat nonexisting patterns in the look-up table. In this paper, a vector adaptive filter is proposed to compensate for these nonexisting patterns, which achieves better quality owing to the contributed informations about hue, saturation, and intensity of surrounding pixels. The experimental results showed that the proposed method resulted in higher PSNR than that of conventional Best Linear Estimation method. The bigger the size of the template in the look-up table becomes, the more outstanding quality in the proposed method can be obtained.

Digital watermarking is a technique embedding hidden information into multimedia data imperceptibly such as images and sounds. Generally an original image is transformed and coded watermark data is embedded in frequency domain watermarking models. In this paper, We propose a new color image watermarking technique using Fresnel transform. A watermark image is Fresnel - transformed and the intensity of transformed pattern is embedded into color image. In our watermarking model, an original image is converted from RGB components into YCrCb components and then the values of real number and imaginary number of a Fresnel-transformed pattern of a watermark image are embedded into Y component. The watermarking experiments were conducted to show the validity of the proposed method using PSNR value, and the results show that our method has the robustness against lossy compression like JPEG.

This paper proposed a new algorithm for binarization and removal of noises in color images with characters and pictures. Binarization was performed by threshold which had computed with color-relationship relative to the number of pixel in background and character candidates and pre-threshold for dividing of background and character candidates in input images. The pre-threshold has been computed by the histogram of R, G, B In respect of the images, while background and character candidates of input images are divided by the above pre-threshold. As it is possible that threshold can be dynamically decided by the quantity of the noises, and the character images are maintained and the noises are removed to the maximum. And, in this study, we made the noise pattern table as a result of analysis in noise pattern included in the various color images aiming at removal of the noises from the Images. Noises included in the images can figure out Distribution by way of the noise pattern table and pattern matching itself. And then this Distribution classified difficulty of noises included in the images into the three categories. As removal of noises in the images is processed through different procedure according to the its classified difficulties, time required for process was reduced and efficiency of noise removal was improved. As a result of recognition experiments in respect of extracted characters in color images by way of the proposed algorithm, we conformed that the proposed algorithm is useful in a sense that it obtained the recognition rate in general documents without colors and pictures to the same level.

Most commercial digital cameras acquire the colors of an image through the color filter array, and interpolate missing pixels of the image. Because of this fact, original pixels and interpolated pixels have different statistical characteristics. If colors of an image are modified, the color filter array pattern that consists of RGB channels is changed. Using this pattern change, a color forgery detection method were presented. The conventional method uses the number of pixels that exceeds the maximum or minimum value of pre-defined block by only exploiting green component. However, this algorithm cannot remove the flat area which is occurred when color is changed. And the conventional method has demerit that cannot detect the forged image with rare green pixels. In this paper, we propose an enhanced color forgery detection algorithm using the normalization and weighted sum of the color components. Our method can reduce the detection error by using all color components and removing flat area. Through simulations, we observe that our proposed method shows better detection performance compared to the conventional method.

Most digital cameras use a single image sensor with Color Filter Array(CFA) for the advantage of costs and speed. The various color interpolation(demosaicing) algorithms are researched to reconstruct a full representation of the image. In this paper, we proposed a method of demosaicing about using weighted directional filter for vertical, horizontal, and diagonal direction edge. The method considered the efficiency of hardware resources for hardware implementation. The performance of proposed method was confirmed by comparing the conventional method in experiments using 24 Kodak test images. The proposed method was designed by Verilog HDL and was verified by using Virtex4 FPGA boards and CMOS Image Sensor.

구조광을 이용하는 깊이 정보 획득 방법에서 코드화된 패턴의 색상 정보는 촬영된 영상으로부터 패턴을 해석하여 패턴의 위상 변화량으로부터 물체의 깊이 정보를 찾기 위함으로 구조광 패턴들이 대상에 정확하게 투영되는 것이 중요하다. 그러나 프로젝터의 특성에 따라 패턴의 RGB 채널들이 종종 좌표에서 어긋나는 현상이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 프로젝터의 특성에 따른 컬러 구조광의 캘리브레이션을 위한 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 시변화 가시구조광 시스템의 캘리브레이션 과정 중에서 투사된 영상으로부터 RGB 패턴 채널을 추출하고, 추출된 패턴으로부터 각 RGB 채널에 대한 히스토그램을 통하여 패턴 채널이 어느 방향으로 번져 나갔는지를 파악하여 원 패턴에 대한 재정렬을 수행한다. 본 논문의 실험결과에 따르면, 기존의 방법에 비해 간단한 방법으로 가시구조광 패턴에 대한 캘리브레션을 수행할 수 있음을 보여준다.
