Having a wide angle of view, a fisheye lens is useful for obtaining images of the inside wall of a tunnel. A circular fisheye tunnel image can be transformed into a familiar rectangular image by applying the concept of cylindrical projection. This projection transformation causes several types of distortions in the projected image. This paper discusses the distortion on the boundary lines between smoothly curved wall and flat ground. We analyzed the cause of this boundary distortion, developed transformation model, and derived a correction formular. A distortion correction software programmed in Visual C++ applied to projected image. Consequently, boundary-corrected image could be obtained. Research into other distortions of projected image will helpful in obtaining tunnel image that resembles real tunnel from fisheye tunnel image.

3D backprojection is a kind of reconstruction algorithm to generate volume data consisting of tomographic images, which provides spatial information of the original 3D data from hundreds of 2D projections. The computational time of backprojection increases in proportion to the size of volume data and the number of projection images since the value of every voxel in volume data is calculated by considering corresponding pixels from hundreds of projections. For the reduction of computational time, fast GPU based 3D backprojection methods have been studied recently and the performance of them has been improved significantly. This paper presents two multiple GPU based methods to maximize the parallelism of GPU and compares the efficiencies of two methods by considering both the number of projections and the size of volume data. The first method is to generate partial volume data independently for all projections after allocating a half size of volume data on each GPU. The second method is to acquire the entire volume data by merging the incomplete volume data of each GPU on CPU. The in-complete volume data is generated using the half size of projections after allocating the full size of volume data on each GPU. In experimental results, the first method performed better than the second method when the entire volume data can be allocated on GPU. Otherwise, the second method was efficient than the first one.

Recently, the use of portable projector expands applications to meeting at fields. Accordingly, the projection is not always guaranteed on white screen, causing some color distortion. Several algorithms have been suggested to correct the projected color on the light colored screen. These have limitation on the use of measurement equipment which can't bring always. In this paper, color correction method using general still camera as convenient measurement equipment is proposed to match the colors between on white and colored screens. A patch containing 9 ramps of each channel are firstly projected on white and colored screens, then captured by the camera, respectively, Next, digital values are obtained by the captured image for each ramp patch on both screens, resulting in different values to the same patch. After that, we check which ramp patch on colored screen has the same digital value on white screen, repeating this procedure for all ramp patches. The difference between corresponding ramp patches reveals the quantity of color shift. Then, color correction matrix is obtained by regression method using matched values. In the experimental results, the proposed method gives better color correction on the objective and subjective evaluation than the previous methods.

Projection that can be used as a feature for image representation, includes much available informations such as approximated shape and location. But when we retrieve image using it, there are some disadvantage such as requiring much index data and making different length of projected vector for differenr image size. In order to overcome these problems, we propose a method of using block variance for the projected vector. We use block variance of the projection vector to localize the characteristics of image and to reduce the number of index data in database. Proposed algorithm can make use of statistical advantage through database including various size of images and be executed with fast response time in implementation.

영상 재투영이란, 깊이 맵을 투영하여 임의의 시점에서 본 이미지를 생성해내는 기법을 말한다. 기존의 CPU를 이용한 영상 재투영 기법들의 가장 큰 단점은 CPU와 GPU 간의 데이터 복사가 일어나고 재투영 연산 자체의 속도가 느리기 때문에 실시간 렌더링이 불가능 하다는 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 GPU를 이용하여 영상 재투영을 구현하고 실시간에 이미지를 렌더링하는 기법을 소개한다. 우리의 기법은 입력으로 참조 이미지와 해당 이미지의 깊이 맵이 주어졌을 때, 임의의 시점에서 보이는 새로운 이미지를 실시간으로 생성한다. 임의의 시점에서 이미지를 생성하기 위해, 각 픽셀에서 참조 이미지에 해당하는 평면을 렌더링하여 시점 반대 방향의 광선을 생성한다. 이 광선을 참조 이미지의 투영 공간으로 변환한 후, 광선과 깊이 맵간의 교차점을 찾는다. 이렇게 찾아낸 깊이 맵의 교차점과 일치하는 참조 이미지의 픽셀 색으로 새로운 시점의 이미지를 만들어 낼 수 있다. 이와 같은 기법은 기하 정보의 복잡도와 관계없이 수십 프레임의 속도로 실시간 렌더링이 가능하다.

반투명 물체(Translucent Object)는 불투명한 물체와는 달리 물체 내부에서 산란이 일어난다. 반투명 물체의 한 표면(Surface)을 렌더링하기 위해서는 그 표면의 정규 벡터뿐만 아니라 그 표면의 주변 기하 정보가 필요하다. 그러나 그래픽 하드웨어 구조는 반투명 물체의 실시간 렌더링의 구현에 많은 제약을 준다. 3D 기하 정보 대신에 라디언스 맵(Radiance map)과 깊이 맵(Depth map)과 같은 투영 영상(Projected Image)을 기반으로 하는 영상 공간 접근 방법(Image Space Approach)을 사용함으로써 GPU 상에서 반투명 재질을 실시간으로 표현할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 영상 공간 접근 방법(Image Space Approach)의 연장선에서 시점을 달리한 여러 장의 투영 영상을 이용함으로써 기존의 한 장의 투영 영상만을 이용한 방법이 가지고 있는 가시성 한계점을 해결한다. 또한 복수 투영 영상의 이용에 따른 계산량 증가에 의해서 손실된 프레임 속도(Frame Rate)에 대해 분석한다.

본 논문에서는 중첩되는 영상사이의 평면 투영 변환을 구하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법은 정규상관과 직사각형-사변형 평면 투영 변환에 기반 한다. 블록 정합을 이용하여 전역 이동을 계산하고, 중첩되는 영역의 정규 상관 계수 값을 최대로 하는 4개의 대응점을 찾기 위하여 가우시안 영상 피라미드에서 SA(simulated annealing) 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 이들 대응점에서 직사각형-사변형으로의 사상을 이용하여 평면 투영 변환을 계산하고, 마지막으로 중첩되는 영역의 RGB 컬러 값을 선형 가중치에 의해 혼합하였다. 실험으로 세 장의 영상을 한 장읠 큰 모자익 영상으로 합성하는 결과를 보였다.

In this paper, an efficient scheme for correcting rotated objects in medical images using the Mojette transform is presented. The Mojette transform is a kind of discrete Radon transform, where the transform domain is represented by a set of projections. The Mojette transform currently studied in the image compression area is modified for detecting the rotation angle of objects in medical images. First, in order to find accurate rotation angle, the projection value in the Mojette transform is determined by using pixels on the projection line and in addition the linear interpolation of pixels adjacent to the line. Second, at each projection angle, only one projection is implemented for reducing the amount of the calculation in the process of the Mojette transform. Finally, the projection in the Mojette transform is carried out at the predetermined ROI(Region Of Interest) at which the objects are not cropped or added by rotating the image. The simulation results show that the proposed method has good performance for correcting the rotation angle in medical images.

The orthophto map is seen as the form of picture with the uniform reduced scale as the current terrain map. Thus it provides a reasonable feeling of scene and is easy to be interpreted. Furthermore, digital orthophoto is currently used as the basic terrain information data of the Geo-Spatial Information System(GSIS). Therefore, the orhtophoto map has high potential use as a future terrain map. This paper studies the method of producing orthophoto map by using the digital satellite imagery data taken from SPOT satellite of France. The production of orthophoto map requires the process of generating orthophoto imagery with digital elevation model, which process is called digital differential rectification. As the final accuracy of orthophoto map depends on that of digital elevation model, the precise and efficient production method of digital elevation model should be preceded. This study investigated the method of producing digital elevation model directly from SPOT satellite imagery and generated ortho-image by resampling the original SPOT imagery through digital differential rectification. Finally, Simple orthophoto map was made by overlaying the ortho-image and the contour map from digital elevation model.
