In this paper. we Propose an UXGA class LCD controller for controlling the LCD panel. The proposed controller supports the full screen display using GCD between input and output resolutions. The proposed LCD controller includes the motion detector based on median filter which can detect the motion of input image for the enhancement of a image quality. Also, it divides the motion into 3 stages such as still, semi-moving and moving, and uses the different interpolation algorithms according to the degree of motion. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed interpolation algorithm, we use PSNR method and compare the conventional algorithm by using computer simulation. For the proposed motion detection algorithm, we use a visual verification and the estimation of pixel changes. The proposed LCD controller has been designed and verified by VHDL. It has been synthesized using Xilinx VirtexE FPGA.

In this paper we propose an adaptive fast image restoration filter, which is suitable for reducing the blocking artifacts in the compressed image in real-time. The proposed restoration filter is based on the observation that quantization operation in a series of coding process is a nonlinear and many-to-one mapping operator. And then we propose an approximated version of constrained optimization technique as a restoration process for removing the nonlinear and space varying degradation operator. We also propose a novel block classification method for adaptively choosing the direction of a highpass filter, which serves as a constraint in the optimization process. The proposed classification method adopts the bias-corrected maximized likelihood, which is used to determine the number of regions in the image for the unsupervised segmentation. The proposed restoration filter can be realized either in the discrete Fourier transform domain or in the spatial domain in the form of a truncated finite impulse response (FIR) filter structure for real-time processing. In order to demonstrate the validity of the proposed restoration filter experimental results will be shown.

In this paper, we proposed a watermarking algorithm by using difference matrix between successive blocks in the transform domain. In the preprocessing, original image is decomposed with 1-level sub-bands by DWT. Then, all sub-bands which are excepted the low-frequency bands are set to normalize and make a reference image after transforming inverse DWT. The statistic variance of successive blocks between the original image and the reference image are calculated and finally, watermark is embedded considering the local characteristic with respect to the high-frequence components. Experimental results showed that the proposed approach is robust and better invisible in such attacks as filtering, JPEG and noise addition.

Medical image watermarking has received extensive attention as wide security services in the healthcare information system. This paper proposes a blind medical image watermarking approach on the segmented gray-matter (GM) images by utilizing discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and discrete cosine transform (DCT) along with enhanced suppressed fuzzy C-means (EnSFCM) for the optimal selection of sub-blocks position to insert a watermark. Experimental results show that the proposed approach outperforms other methods in terms of peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and M-SVD. In addition, the proposed approach shows better robustness than other methods in normalized correlation (NC) values against several attacks, such as noise addition, filtering, JPEG compression, blurring, histogram equalization, and cropping.

This paper presents a simple dynamical prediction scheme of the signal level which is attenuated and varied due to rain fading in satellite communication links using above 10GHz frequency bands. The proposed prediction scheme has four functional blocks for discrete-time low-pass filtering, slope-based prediction, mean-error correction and hybrid fixed/variable prediction margin allocation. Through simulations using Ka-band attenuation data obtained from the data measured over Ku-band by frequency-scaling, it is shown that the slope-based prediction with the mean-error correction has as small standard deviation of prediction error as below 1 dB, and that the error is about 1.5 to 2.5 times as small as that without the mean-error correction. The hybrid prediction margin allocation requires smaller average margin than those of both fixed and variable methods.

In H.264/AVC decoder, intra predictor, motion compensator, and deblocking filter need to read reference images in external frame memory in decoding process. They read external frame memory very frequently, which lowers system operation speed and increases power consumption. This paper proposes a intra predictor integrated with motion compensator without external frame memory. It achieves power reduction and memory bandwidth minimization by exploiting data reuse of common and repetitive pixels. The proposed infra predictor achieves more than $45%\;{\sim}\;75%$ cycle time reduction compared with conventional intra predictors.

In this paper, the decision method of optimal sub-band which is supposed to embedded watermark incorporating fuzzy inference into transform-based watermarking is proposed. After performing the DCT, maximum variation of human visual properties, such as text degree, contrast sensitivity function is calculated, and by using these, membership function is generated. After embedding the watermark to the selected bands obtained from fuzzy inference, performance of imperceptibility and robustness are evaluated. In order to testify the proposed scheme, such attacks as JPEG, filtering, cropping are utilized. and in addition, by using an AWGN channel of OFDM/QPSK system, PSNR as well as correlation are calculated, and finally evaluated the performance.

A study to have read does an improvement of an error restoration technology based on the edge direction interpolation that a stop image cared for inside frame correction more than with an image restoration way of a transfer error or with an aim. A way proposed to is based on edge direction detection method of a block utilizing the edge direction which will adjust a part damaged a sweater to a remaining part here. The rest of error pixel used non linear Midian filter for process later data information by the final stage and did interpolation. The examination result shows a good recuperation tendency and low accounts time of a way proposed to realization possibility of a real time image processing.
