Background and Objectives : High-speed videolaryngoscopy (HSV) is the only technique that captures the true intra-cycle vibratory behavior of the vocal folds by capturing full images of the vocal folds. However, it has problems of no immediate feedback during examination, considerable waiting time for digital kymography (DKG), recording duration limited to a few seconds, and extreme demands for storage space. Herein, we demonstrate a new post-processing method that converts HSV images to two-dimensional digital kymography (2D-DKG) images, which adopts the algorithm of 2D videokymography (2D VKG). Materials and Methods : HSV system was used to capture images of vocal folds. HSV images were post-processed in Kay image-process software (KIPS), and conventional DKG images were retrieved. Custom-made post-processing system was used to convert HSV images to 2D-DKG images. The quantitative parameters of the post-processed 2D-DKG images was validated by comparing these parameters with those of the DKG images. Results : Serial HSV images for all phases of vocal fold vibratory movement are included. The images were converted by the scanning method using U-medical image-process software. Similar to conventional DKG, post-processed 2D DKG image from the HSV image can provide quantitative information on vocal fold mucosa vibration, including the various vibratory phases. Differences in amplitude symmetry index, phase symmetry index, open quotient, and close quotient between 2D-DKG and DKG were analyzed. There were no statistical differences between the quantitative parameters of vocal fold vibratory movement in 2D-DKG and DKG. Conclusion : The post-processing method of converting HSV images to 2D DKG images could provide clinical information and storage economy.

In the paper, we propose an algorithm that significantly reduces unnecessary computations, while keeping prediction quality almost similar to that of the full search. In the proposed algorithm, we can reduces only unnecessary computations efficiently by taking different search patterns and error criteria of block matching according to distribution probability of motion vectors. Our algorithm takes only 20~30% in computational amount and has decreased prediction quality about 0~0.02dB compared with the fast full search of the H.264 reference software. Our algorithm will be useful to real-time video coding applications using MPEG-2/4 AVC standards.

This study was to investigate the kinematic analysis to score of the Yurchenko stretch skill according to phases in a horse vaulting. For this study, 8 male national gymnasts were participated in acquiring three dimensional kinematical imagining data with four Sony PD-150 video cameras After digitizing motion, the Direct Linear Transformation(DLT) technique was employed to obtain 3-D position coordinates. The kinematic factors of the distance, velocity and angle variable were calculated for Kwon3D 3.1. The following conclusions were drawn; 1) The COG resultant velocity of the less skilled group decreased in PRF phase because the less skilled group had a larger flexion-knee angle than the skilled group in BC phase, Because the less skilled group had larger flexion-shoulder angle than the skilled group in HTO phase, At blocking movement, the body inclined a moving direction. By means of it, COG lowered 2) The skilled group had a more rapid COG's vertical velocity than the less skilled group at HTD and HTO event in HC phase, because this was performed the blocking movement with body angle and contacted on a horse vaulting small and its time short by means of contacting hands on a horse vaulting quickly. Such blocking movement made the vertical up-flight movement easy at POF phase bringing out rapid COG's vertical velocity after take off a horse vaulting.

최근 들어 세계적으로 크게 관심을 받는 메타버스 및 몰입형(가상현실, 확장현실, 및 라이트필드) 콘텐츠 서비스의 응용 범위를 확대하기 위해서는 3D 객체의 실시간 전송을 위한 압축 기술이 필요하다. ISO/IEC 23090 MPEG-I Part 5 로 2021 년 표준화 완료된 V-PCC (Video-based Point Cloud Compression)는 이러한 산업계의 관심 및 필요에 의해서 국제 표준화된 동적 3D 포인트 클라우드 객체 부호화 기술이다. V-PCC 기술의 압축 성능은 기존 산업계 기술에 비해 매우 우수하나, 부호화기의 연산 복잡도가 매우 높다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 V-PCC 부호화기에서 가장 높은 연산 복잡도를 갖는 법선 추정 알고리즘의 결합 고속화 기법을 제안한다. 법선 추정은 2 개의 알고리즘으로 구성되어 있다. 첫번째는 "방향을 무시하는 법선 추정 알고리즘(normal estimation)"이고, 두번째는 첫번째 알고리즘에서 추정된 법선들을 대상으로 하는 "법선 방향 추정 알고리즘(normal orientation)"이다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 고속화 기법은 2 개 알고리즘을 결합하여 첫번째 법선 추정 알고리즘에서 획득한 부가 정보를 두번째 법선 방향 추정 알고리즘에서 활용함으로써 연산량을 대폭 줄이고, 또한 법선 방향 추정 알고리즘 내의 우선순위 큐 자료구조를 변경하여 추가적인 고속화를 달성한다. 7 개 테스트 영상에 대한 실험 결과, 압축 효율 저하 없이 법선 방향 추정 알고리즘의 속도를 평균 89.2% 향상시킬 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose and design a new 0.264/AVC watermarking algorithm for protection of copyright by inserting a watermark after quantization. This invisible watermarking algorithm insets a watermark into chrominance components of I frame such that we can avoid degradation of original images. According to test results we could limit image degradation by 1dB, avoid bit rate increment within 2% and increase processing time by only 2%. The IP is designed by Hynix 0.25 micron technology and the maximum operating frequency of 115MHz is achieved. The PSNR of the embedded watermark is about 35dB according to the test result.

A 2-D median filter has many applications in various image and video signal processing areas. The rapid development in VLSI technology makes it possible to implement a real-time or near real-time 2-D median filter with reasonable cost. For the efficient VLSI implementation, the algorithm should have characteristics such as small memory requirements, regular computations, and local data transfers. This paper presents an architecture of the real-time two-dimensional separable median filter which has appropriate characteristics for the VLSI implementation. For the efficient two-dimensional median filter, a separable two-dimensional median filtering structure and a bit-sliced pipelined median searching algorithm are used. A behavioral simulator is implemented with C language and used for the analysis of the presented architecture.

Purpose: The changes of phoria and subjective asthenopia before and after viewing were compared based on 2D image and two ways of 3D images, and presented for references of 3D image watching and production. Methods: Change in phoria was measured before and after watching 2D image, 3D-FPR and 3D-SG images for 30 minutes with a target of 41 university students at 20-30 years old (male 26, female 15). Paired t-test and Pearson correlation between changed phoria and subjective symptoms which were measured using questionnaires were evaluated by before and after watching each images. Results: Right after watching 2D image, exophoria was increased by 0.5 $\Delta$, in distance and near, but it was not a significant level. Right after watching 3D image, exophoria was increased by 1.0~1.5 $\Delta$, and 1.5~2.0 $\Delta$, in distance and near, respectively when compared with before watching. In the significant level, exophoria tended to increase. Changes in near was increased more by 0.5 $\Delta$, compared with those in distance. Changes based on way of 3D-FPR and 3D-SG image were less than 0.5 $\Delta$, and there was almost no difference. In terms of visual subjective symptoms, eye strain was increased in 3D image compared with that in 2D image. In addition, there was no difference depending on way of image. In terms of Pearson correlation between phoria change and eye strain, as exophoria was increased, eye strain was increased. Conclusions: Watching 3D image increased eye strain compared with watching 2D image, and accordingly exophoria tended to increase.

Model experiments for a purse seine were carried out in order to measure the geometry of net shape and to estimate an enclosed volume by using 1177 scale model purse seine of 12.62m float line from an offshore mackerel purse seine. A model purse seine was set from a net box of shooting equipments and then pursing and hauling net by hauling equipment. The 3- D geometry shape of the purse seine net during hauling operation was measured by video image processing and tension of purse line by load cell. The 3-D geometry of the model purse seine during hauling operation could be represented with variables such as a ratio of shooting diameter or maximum net depth and a ratio of hauling operation time. Horizontal shapes of float line and lead line were varied from a circle after shooting to an ellipse with pursing and hauling. Projected lateral shape of purse line was observed and formulated as a shape of a water drop. The cross sectional shapes of curved net from two directions were varied such as sine function or polynomial curves. Therefore, enclosed volume of a purse seine in relation to fish school behaviour can be approximated using two main variables from relevant equations.
