High-quality images and videos are being generated as technologies for deep learning-based image style translation and conversion of static images into dynamic images have developed. However, it takes a lot of time and resources to manually transform images, as well as professional knowledge due to the difficulty of natural image transformation. Therefore, in this paper, we study natural style mixing through a style conversion network using GAN and natural dynamic image generation using the First Order Motion Model network (FOMM).

This paper proposes a nail detection algorithm using OpenPose and implements virtual nail art using it. Based on the key points detected by OpenPose, the finger area is detected using skin color characteristics for each finger. The nail region is detected from the edge image of the detected finger region. Then, a virtual nail art is implemented by synthesizing nail tips in the nail area. In a somewhat controlled shooting environment, simulation results show that the proposed algorithm detects nail areas well and implements virtual nail art well.

딥러닝이 각광받기 시작하면서 인간의 자세와 행동을 인식하고 분류하기 위한 인공지능 기술 또한 급속도로 발전하게 되었다. 영상에서 인간의 자세를 디지털 데이터로 표현할 때 인체의 주요 관절점의 위치와 연결관계를 나타내는 스켈레톤 표현 방식을 주로 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 스켈레톤 데이터에 비밀 메시지를 은닉할 수 있는 스테가노그라피 알고리즘에 대해 소개하고, 스켈레톤을 구성하는 주요 관절점 키포인트를 조작했을 때 행동 인식 인공지능 모델이 어떻게 반응하는지 살펴봄으로써 스켈레톤 데이터에 대한 스테가노그라피 알고리즘의 특성과 보안성에 대해 논의한다.

This study proposes a method to overcome the limited detection range of short-baseline stereo cameras (SBSCs). The proposed method includes two steps: (1) predicting an unscaled initial depth using monocular depth estimation (MDE) and (2) adjusting the unscaled initial depth by a scale factor. The scale factor is computed by triangulating the sparse visual keypoints extracted from the left and right images of the SBSC. The proposed method allows the use of any pre-trained MDE model without the need for additional training or data collection, making it efficient even when considering the computational constraints of small platforms. Using an open dataset, the performance of the proposed method was demonstrated by comparing it with other conventional stereo-based depth estimation methods.

Recently, We are carrying out a policy of physical distancing of at least 1m from each other to prevent the spreading of COVID-19 disease in public places. In this paper, we propose a method for measuring distances between people in real time and an automation system that recognizes objects that are within 1 meter of each other from stereo images acquired by drones or CCTVs according to the estimated distance. A problem with existing methods used to estimate distances between multiple objects is that they do not obtain three-dimensional information of objects using only one CCTV. his is because three-dimensional information is necessary to measure distances between people when they are right next to each other or overlap in two dimensional image. Furthermore, they use only the Bounding Box information to obtain the exact coordinates of human existence. Therefore, in this paper, to obtain the exact two-dimensional coordinate value in which a person exists, we extract a person's key point to detect the location, convert it to a three-dimensional coordinate value using Stereo Vision and Camera Calibration, and estimate the Euclidean distance between people. As a result of performing an experiment for estimating the accuracy of 3D coordinates and the distance between objects (persons), the average error within 0.098m was shown in the estimation of the distance between multiple people within 1m.

본 논문에서는 50인 이하 소규모 제조업에 대해 어떤 방법으로 접근하는 것이 BCMS를 적용 하는데 효과적인지 연구하였다. BCMS의 적용범위가 상당히 광범위하고 현재 BCMS를 적용하고 있는 기업의 규모는 대부분 크며, 기업인들의 인식도 큰 규모만이 BCMS가 적용될 수 있다고 믿고 있다. 이에 실질적으로 한국의 기업군을 대부분 차지하고 있는 50인 이하의 제조업이 어떻게 BCMS를 적용하는 것이 효과적인지를 개발하여 소규모 기업도 어떠한 상황 하에서도 사업이 지속가능할 수 있도록 BCMS를 적용 하고자 한다. 일단 50인 이하 소규모 업체는 조직의 상황이 대기업이나 중견기업에 비해 간단하다. 또한 이해관계자도 대부분 많지 않다. 그렇기 때문에 BCMS를 수립하기 위해 파악하여야 할 핵심 업무나 관련 리스크도 많지 않을 것이다. 여기에 착안을 하여 기존에 대부분 갖추고 있는 품질, 환경, 안전보건시스템과 연계하여 사업연속성관리 시스템을 구축하면 50인 이하 기업도 별도의 추가시스템이 아닌 통합시스템의 일환으로 손쉽게 BCMS를 적용하여 어떠한 리스크에도 사업의 연속성을 갖출 수 있는 능력을 가질 것이다. BCMS에서 요구하는 사항에 대해 개별적인 접근방식보다 기존에 갖추고 있는 시스템을 적용하여 통합시스템 접근방식이 키포인트이다.

Sign language has completely different meaning depending on the direction of the hand or the change of facial expression even with the same gesture. In this respect, it is crucial to capture the spatial-temporal structure information of each movement. However, sign language translation studies based on Sign2Gloss2Text only convey comprehensive spatial-temporal information about the entire sign language movement. Consequently, detailed information (facial expression, gestures, and etc.) of each movement that is important for sign language translation is not emphasized. Accordingly, in this paper, we propose Spatial-temporal Keypoints Centered Sign2Gloss2Text Translation, named STKC-Sign2 Gloss2Text, to supplement the sequential and semantic information of keypoints which are the core of recognizing and translating sign language. STKC-Sign2Gloss2Text consists of two steps, Spatial Keypoints Embedding, which extracts 121 major keypoints from each image, and Temporal Keypoints Embedding, which emphasizes sequential information using Bi-GRU for extracted keypoints of sign language. The proposed model outperformed all Bilingual Evaluation Understudy(BLEU) scores in Development(DEV) and Testing(TEST) than Sign2Gloss2Text as the baseline, and in particular, it proved the effectiveness of the proposed methodology by achieving 23.19, an improvement of 1.87 based on TEST BLEU-4.

In this paper, we propose an edge computing-based exercise data collection device that can be provided for exercise rehabilitation services. In the existing cloud computing method, when the number of users increases, the throughput of the data center increases, causing a lot of delay. In this paper, we design and implement a device that measures and estimates the position of keypoints of body joints for movement information collected by a 3D camera from the user's side using edge computing and transmits them to the server. This can build a seamless information collection environment without load on the cloud system. The results of this study can be utilized in a personalized rehabilitation exercise coaching system through IoT and edge computing technologies for various users who want exercise rehabilitation.

Recently, as multimedia information becomes popular, there are many studies to retrieve images based on images in the web. However, it is hard to find the matching images which users want to find because of various patterns in images. In this paper, we suggest an efficient images retrieval system based on images for finding products in internet shopping malls. We extract features for image retrieval by using SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm, repeat keypoint matching in various dimension by using PCA-SIFT, and find the image which users search for by combining them. To verify efficiency of the proposed method, we compare the performance of our approach with that of SIFT and PCA-SIFT by using images with various patterns. We verify that the proposed method shows the best distinction in the case that product labels are not included in images.

The Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) has been widely used in a lot of applications for image feature matching. Such a transform allows us to strong matching ability, stability in rotation, and scaling with the variety of different scales. Recently, it has been made one of the most successful algorithms in the research areas of copy-move forgery detections. Though this transform is capable of identifying copy-move forgery, it does not widely address the possibility that counter-forensics operations may be designed and used to hide the evidence of image tampering. In this paper, we propose a targeted counter-forensics method for impeding SIFT-based copy-move forgery detection by applying a semantically admissible distortion in the processing tool. The proposed method allows the attacker to delude a similarity matching process and conceal the traces left by a modification of SIFT keypoints, while maintaining a high fidelity between the processed images and original ones under the semantic constraints. The efficiency of the proposed method is supported by several experiments on the test images with various parameter settings.
