This paper proposes an efficient image description method for image retrieval using circular scanning pattern. Therefore, we place the origin of the circular scanning pattern on center point of an image and describe spatial color features of the image using the pattern. The features are Circular Dominant Color, Circular Color Texture, and Circular Color Variation Plot. By the method we can describe color and spatial information of the image at a time, efficiently. Therefore, we can reduce the computational expense and memory usage needed to index the image more than the conventional one does.

The purpose of this study is a development of an automatic mosaicing for applying to large number of airborne multispectral images, which reduces manual operation by human. 2436 airborne multispectral images were acquired from DuncanTech MS4100 camera with three bands; green, red and near infrared. LIDAR(LIght Detection And Ranging) data and GPS/INS(global positioning system/inertial navigation system) data were collected with the multispectral images. First, the multispectral images were converted to image patterns by unsupervised classification. Their patterns were compared with those of adjacent images to derive relative spatial position between images. Relative spatial positions were derived for 80% of the whole images. Second, it accomplished an automatic mosaicing using GPS/INS data and unsupervised classification. Since the time of GPS/INS data did not synchronized the time of readout images, synchronized GPS/INS data with the time of readout image were selected in consecutive data by comparing unsupervised classified images. This method realized mosaicing automatically for 96% images and RMSE (root mean square error) for the spatial precision of mosaiced images was only 1.44 m by validation with LIDAR data.

In this paper, we introduce a technique to detect the video forgery using coding pattern analysis. In the proposed method, the recently developed standard HEVC codec, which is expected to be widely used in the future, is used. First, HEVC coding patterns of the forged and the original videos are analyzed to select the discriminative features, and the selected feature vectors are learned through the machine learning technique to model the classification criteria between two groups. Experimental results show that the proposed method is more effective to detect frame deletions for HEVC-coded videos than existing works.

A defect in an image is a set of pixels forming an irregular shape. Since a defect, in most cases, is not easy to be modeled mathematically, the defect detection problem still resides in a research area. If a given image, however, composed by certain patterns, a defect can be detected by the fact that a non-defect area should be explained by another patch in terms of a rotation, translation, and noise. In this paper, therefore, the defect detection method for a repeated multi-patterned image is proposed. The proposed defect detection method is composed of three steps. First step is the interest point detection step, second step is the selection step of a appropriate patch size, and the last step is the decision step. The proposed method is illustrated using SEM images of semiconductor wafer samples.

In this paper, a simple and robust algorithm is proposed for detecting straight line segments in a steel plate image. Line detection from a steel plate image is a fundamental task for analyzing and understanding of the image. The proposed algorithm is based on small eigenvalue analysis. The proposed approach scans an input edge image from the top left comer to the bottom right comer with a moving mask. A covariance matrix of a set of edge pixels over a connected region within the mask is determined and then the statistical and geometrical properties of the small eigenvalue of the matrix are explored for the purpose of straight line detection. Before calculating the eigenvalue, each line segment is separated from the edge image where several line segments are overlapped to increase the accuracy of the line detection. Additionally, unnecessary line segments are eliminated by the number of pixels and the directional information of the detected line edges. The respects of the experiments emphasize that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing algorithm which uses small eigenvalue analysis.

Under the influence of the 4th industrial revolution, various technologies such as artificial intelligence and automation are being grafted into industrial sites, and accordingly, the importance of data processing is increasing. Digital images may generate noise due to various reasons, and may affect various systems such as image recognition and classification and object tracking. To compensate for these shortcomings, we propose an image restoration algorithm based on pattern information of non-noise pixels. According to the distribution of non-noise pixels inside the filtering mask, the proposed algorithm switched the filtering process by dividing the interpolation method into a pattern that can be applied, a pattern based on region division, and a randomly arranged pixel pattern. preserves and restores the image. The proposed algorithm showed superior performance compared to the existing impulse noise removal algorithm.

칼라 역 해프토닝(Color inverse halftoning)은 해프토닝 칼라 영상을 시각적으로 보다 자연스러운 연속계조 칼라영상으로 변환해 주는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는, 분리된 각 칼라 채널 영상에서 나타나는 해프톤 셀 패턴을 효과적으로 제거할 수 있는 새로운 평활화 마스크를 제안하고, 이를 칼라역 해프토닝에 활용하였다. 제안한 평활화 마스크는 기존의 평활화 마스크가 잘 제거하지 못했던 해프톤, 셀 패턴을 시각적으로 보다 자연스럽게 평활해 줄 수 있으며, 마스크의 특성을 평활화하고자 하는 채널 영상에 적합하게 조정할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 실험을 통해, 평활화된 채널 영상과 그 스펙트럼을 비교 분석함으로써 제안한 방법의 유용성을 확인하였다. 이 방법은 전자 출판, 칼라 팩스, 해프톤 영상의 압축 등의 분야에 활용될 수 있다.

본 논문은 치아의 전치 교합과 후치 교합 상태에서 획득된 영상들에 대해 BMME와 LDA에 기반한 개인 인증 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 두 치아 교합 상태의 영상들로부터 치아 영역 추출, BMME, 패턴인식 과정으로 구성된다. 두 상태의 치아 교합을 사용하면 영상에서 일정한 치아 모양이 유지되며, BMME는 패턴인식에서 정합 오차를 줄일 수 있도록 해 준다. 강체인 치아는 영상 획득시 왜곡되지 않으므로 치아 영상을 이용하는 방법은 생체 인식에 장점으로 작용한다. 실험에서, 제안한 방법은 20명에 대해 개인 인증을 위한 인식에 성공하여 다중 인증 시스템에 사용될 수 있음을 보였다.
