본 논문에서 프레임 율 향상을 위한 새로운 움직임 추정 알고리즘에 대해 제안한다. 계산량을 줄이고 다해상도의 영상을 이용하기 위하여 원본 프레임들을 계층적 구조로 형성하고, 최상위 계층에서 단방향 움직임 추정을 수행한다. 최상위 계층은 낮은 해상도 때문에 움직임 벡터의 정확도가 낮아지므로, 정확도를 향상시키기 위해 각각의 블록은 5 개의 움직임 벡터 후보들을 가진다. 이 후보들은 아래 계층들에서 수정되며, 움직임 추정이 완료되면 최하위 계층의 움직임 벡터들은 SAD (sum of absolute difference) 값을 이용해서 최종적으로 수정된다. 이렇게 구해진 단방향 움직임 벡터들은 양방향 움직임 벡터로 변환되고 양방향 보간법을 사용하여 보간 프레임을 생성한다. 결과적으로, 제안하는 알고리즘은 기존 알고리즘들에 비해 낮은 계산량을 나타내면서 PSNR (peak signal-to-noise ratio) 수치에서 최대 1.3 dB 의 향상을 나타냈고, 주관적으로도 더 선명한 결과를 보여주었다.

Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC) of ISO/IEC MPEG and ITU-T developed the HEVC Screen Content Coding (HEVC SCC) standard as the HEVC extension for the screen content video coding. The Intra Block Copy (IBC) is the most effective tool adopted in HEVC SCC and predicts current block from already reconstructed neighboring blocks in the same picture. To reduce the amount of data in BV (Block Vector) to be transmitted, a BV predictor (BVP) is used to generate the BV differences in the IBC BV coding. In this paper, we analyze the current BV prediction process using HEVC reference software SCM-2.0 and SCM-4.0. Based on the analysis results, we propose an improved BVP candidate selection algorithm by adding a search process for adjacent BVs in addition to the existing spatial BVP candidates. Experimental results show that the BD-rate reduction of our proposed improvements ranges from 0.2% to 1%.

In this paper, we review temporal error concealment for video transport over unreliable networks, and a new approach for the recovery of lost or erroneous motion vection(MV)s by classifying the movements of neighboring blocks by their homogeneity is proposed. MVs of the neighboring blocks are classified according to the direction of MVs and a representative value for each class is determined to obtain the candidate MV set. By computing the distortion of the candidates, a MV with the minimum distortion is selected. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm exhibits better performance in many cases than existing methods.

본 논문에서는 보다 효율적이고 정확한 움직임 벡터를 추정하기 위하여 계층적 평활화 방법(hierachical regularization technique)을 이용한 움직임 추정 알고리듬을 제안한다. 계층적 평활화 기법을 이용하여 움직임 벡터들의 신뢰도를 증가시켰고, 주위 벡터와의 평활화를 통해 움직임 벡터들의 비트량을 감소시켰다. 또한 적은 후보 벡터를 이용하여 움직임 벡터를 예측하는 고속 움직임 추정 알고리듬을 적용하여 평활화 과정의 추가로 인해 생기는 많은 연산량을 감소시켰다.

In this paper, it is proposed for algorithm to detect human efficiently using a edge symmetry and gradient directional characteristics in realtime by the feature extraction in a single input image. Proposed algorithm is composed of three stages, preprocessing, region partition of human candidates, verification of candidate regions. Here, preprocessing stage is strong the image regardless of the intensity and brightness of surrounding environment, also detects a contour with characteristics of human as considering the shape features size and the condition of human for characteristic of human. And stage for region partition of human candidates has separated the region with edge symmetry for human and size in the detected contour, also divided 1st candidates region with applying the adaboost algorithm. Finally, the candidate region verification stage makes excellent the performance for the false detection by verifying the candidate region using feature vector of a gradient for divided local area and classifier. The results of the simulations, which is applying the proposed algorithm, the processing speed of the proposed algorithms is improved approximately 1.7 times, also, the FNR(False Negative Rate) is confirmed to be better 3% than the conventional algorithm which is a single structure algorithm.

In this paper, we propose the prediction search algorithm for block matching using the temporal/spatial correlation of the video sequence and the renter-biased property of motion vectors The proposed algorithm determines the location of a better starting point for the search of an exact motion vector using the point of the smallest SAD(Sum of Absolute Difference) value by the predicted motion vector from the same block of the previous frame and the predictor candidate pint in each search region and the predicted motion vector from the neighbour blocks of the current frame. And the searching process after moving the starting point is processed a adaptive search pattern according to the magnitude of motion vector Simulation results show that PSNR(Peak-to-Signal Noise Ratio) values are improved up to the 0.75dB as depend on the video sequences and improved about 0.05∼0.34dB on an average except the FS (Full Search) algorithm.

In this paper, we present a scheme to overcome the worst case complexity of the sphere decoder. If the number of visited nodes reaches the threshold, the detected symbol vector is determined between two candidate symbol vectors. One candidate symbol vector is obtained from the demodulated output of ZF receiver which is initial stage of the sphere decoder. The other candidate symbol vector consists of two sub-symbol vectors. The first sub-symbol vector consists of lately visited nodes running from the most upper layer. The second one contains corresponding demodulated outputs of ZF receiver. Between these two candidate symbol vectors, the one with smaller euclidean distance to the received symbol vector is chosen as detected symbol vector. In addition, we show the upper bound of symbol error rate performance for the sphere decoder using the proposed scheme. In the simulation, the proposed scheme shows the significant reduction of the worst case complexity while having negligible SER performance degradation.

This paper proposes a real-time face detection system which detects multiple faces from low resolution video such as web-camera video. First, It finds face region candidates by using AdaBoost based object detection method which selects a small number of critical features from a larger set. Next, it generates reduced feature vector for each face region candidate by using principle component analysis. Finally, it classifies if the candidate is a face or non-face by using SVM(Support Vector Machine) based binary classification. According to experiment results, the proposed method achieves real-time face detection from low resolution video. Also, it reduces the false detection rate than existing methods by using PCA and SVM based face classification step.

In this paper, we propose a method that recognize hatched area based on segmentation and vectorization of a machine drawing. This recogntion of hatched area is composed of three parts. First, the proposed method segments an object, arrowheads and interpretation lines from the machine drawing and vectorizes the object and interpretation lines. Second, closed-loops are labeled with the vectorized objects, and then candidates of hatched areas arc determined. Finally, by recognizing hatched lines included in hatched areas, recognition of the hatched areas is completed. The proposed method is more useful in extracting and recognizing the hatched areas.
