Silkworms, which have for long been used as an insect resource for industrialization, have recently attracted attention as potential bio-factories for the production of novel biomaterials. In this regard, material production is typically achieved based on transformation technology, mediated via microinjection, in which a target gene is inserted into eggs containing an embryo. However, an essential step in the microinjection procedure is egg fixation, which can be a time-consuming and laborious task. Therefore, in this study, using the 3DCADian program, we adopted a 3D printing approach to model egg liners and glue drawers, which can contribute to facilitating egg alignment and fixation, thereby enhancing transformation efficiency by reducing time consumption and fatigue. After rendering using Fusion 360, the two supplementary tools were produced by printing with nylon resin (PA12) and Sinterit Lisa Pro. Subsequent analysis of the time required to fix eggs on glass slides using the two manufactured tools, revealed that the processing time was reduced by approximately 18.6% when the two tools were used compared with when these tools were not used. These innovations not only reduced fatigue but also contributed to more effective use of the microscope and manipulator for microinjection. Consequently, we believe that with additional research and refinement, the egg liner and glue drawer developed in this study could be used to enhance silkworm transformation efficiency and study similar transformation systems in other industrial insects.

본 논문에서는 실시간 수묵화 기법 렌더링을 제시한다. 기존의 대표적인 렌더링 기법인 Phong-Shading 기법은 사진과 같은 사실적인 표현이 가능하다. 하지만 인조적이고 기계적인 느낌이 강해 미술가가 그린 그림과 같이 다양한 느낌을 표현하는데 한계가 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 우리는 기존의 미술가들이 써왔던 다양한 기법 중 동양화의 특징들을 3차원 실시간 렌더링 기법에 적용하고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 실시간 렌더링을 위해 정교함에 치중하기 보다는 수묵화의 주된 특징들을 빠르게 표현할 수 있는 새로운 알고리즘을 제시한다. 동양화 작품들의 특징을 살펴보면 전체적으로는 일관성을 유지하지만 세부적으로 보면 모두 불규칙한 패턴을 이루고 있다는 것이다. 이러한 특징들은 붓 끝에서 오는 불규칙성 때문에 오는데 본 논문에서는 이러한 정을 쉐이딩과 외곽선 그리고 색 부분으로 나누어 적용하였다. 사용자는 다른 복잡한 과정 없이 단지 불규칙 정도만을 조절하여 다양한 이미지를 창출해 낼 수 있다.

This paper presents a compression scheme for mesh geometry, which is suitable for mobile graphics. The main focus is to enable real-time decoding of compressed vertex positions while providing reasonable compression ratios. Our scheme is based on local quantization of vertex positions with mesh partitioning. To prevent visual seams along the partitioning boundaries, we constrain the locally quantized cells of all mesh partitions to have the same size and aligned local axes. We propose a mesh partitioning algorithm to minimize the size of locally quantized cells, which relates to the distortion of a restored mesh. Vertex coordinates are stored in main memory and transmitted to graphics hardware for rendering in the quantized form, saving memory space and system bus bandwidth. Decoding operation is combined with model geometry transformation, and the only overhead to restore vertex positions is one matrix multiplication for each mesh partition. In our experiments, a 32-bit floating point vertex coordinate is quantized into an 8-bit integer, which is the smallest data size supported in a mobile graphics library. With this setting, the distortions of the restored meshes are comparable to 11-bit global quantization of vertex coordinates. We also apply the proposed approach to compression of vertex attributes, such as vertex normals and texture coordinates, and show that gains similar to vertex geometry can be obtained through local quantization with mesh partitioning.

한국기초과학지원연구원(KBSI, Korea Basic Science Institute)에서는 국내 유일의 초고전압투과전자현미경(HVEM, High Voltage Electron Microscopy)을 비롯하여 3대의 일반투과 전자현미경을 보유하고 있다. 전자현미경을 통하여 관찰된 이미지는 각 단계별로 tilting 되어 저장된 이미지로서 관찰자에게 보다 나은 관찰 환경의 구성을 위해 3D로의 reconstruction은 필수 과정이라고 할 수 있겠다. 이 과정 중 카메라 중심에서 벋어난 부분의 왜곡을 워핑기법을 통하여 최대한 감소시킨다. 이런 전처리 과정을 통하여 3D 구조물을 구성하게 되면 초기 이미지를 그대로 사용하는 것보다 한 단계 더 나은 결과물을 얻어낼 수 있다. 이미지 전처리를 이용한 전자현미경 볼륨 랜더링 시스템의 구축은 관찰자에게 보다 편리하며 빠른 실험 환경을 제공하여 줄 수 있고, 이해하기 쉽고 실제 모습에 가까운 형태의 실험 결과물을 접할 수 있게 된다.

Currently commercially available light field cameras are difficult to acquire 5D light field video since it can only acquire the still images or high price of the device. In order to solve these problems, we propose a deep learning based method for synthesizing the light field video from monocular video. To solve the problem of obtaining the light field video training data, we use UnrealCV to acquire synthetic light field data by realistic rendering of 3D graphic scene and use it for training. The proposed deep running framework synthesizes the light field video with each sub-aperture image (SAI) of $9{\times}9$ from the input monocular video. The proposed network consists of a network for predicting the appearance flow from the input image converted to the luminance image, and a network for predicting the optical flow between the adjacent light field video frames obtained from the appearance flow.

Recently, the facility extension construction and maintenance market portion has increased instead of decreased the newly facility construction. In this context, it is important to examine the reverse engineering of MEP (Mechanical Electrical and Plumbing) facilities, which have the high operation and management cost in the architecture domains. The purpose of this study was to suggest the Large Point Cloud-based Pipe Shape Reverse Engineering Method. To conduct the study, the related researches were surveyed and the reverse engineering automation method of the pipe shapes considering large point cloud was proposed. Based on the method, the prototype was developed and the results were validated. The proposed method is suitable for large data processing considering the validation results because the rendering performance standard deviation related to the 3D point cloud massive data searching was 0.004 seconds.

A depth map is an important component for stereoscopic image generation. Since the depth map acquired from a depth camera has a low resolution, upsamling a low-resolution depth map to a high-resolution one has been studied past decades. Upsampling methods are evaluated by objective evaluation tools such as PSNR, Sharpness Degree, Blur Metric. As well, the subjective quality is compared using virtual views generated by DIBR (depth image based rendering). However, works on the analysis of the relation between depth map upsampling and stereoscopic images are relatively few. In this paper, we investigate the relationship between subjective evaluation of stereoscopic images and objective performance of upsampling methods using cross correlation and linear regression. Experimental results demonstrate that the correlation of edge PSNR and visual fatigue is the highest and the blur metric has lowest correlation. Further, from the linear regression, we found relative weights of objective measurements. Further we introduce a formulae that can estimate 3D performance of conventional or new upsampling methods.

Physically-based simulation modeling is to simulate the real world by using physical laws such as Newton's second law of motion, while other modelings use only geometric Properties. In this paper, we present a real time simulation of stone skipping by using the physically-based modeling. We also describe interaction of a stone on the surface of water, and focus on calculating the path of the stone and the natural phenomena of water The path is decided by velocity of the stone and drag force from the water The motion is recalculated until the stone is immersing into the water surface. Our simulation provides a natural motion of stone skippings in real time. And the motion of stone skippings are generated by give interactive displays on the PC platforms. The techniques presented can easily be extended to simulate other interactive dynamics systems.

In this paper, we present a facial expression recognition-synthesis system that recognizes 7 basic emotion information automatically and renders face with non-photorelistic style in PDA For the recognition of the facial expressions, first we need to detect the face area within the image acquired from the camera. Then, a normalization procedure is applied to it for geometrical and illumination corrections. To classify a facial expression, we have found that when Gabor wavelets is combined with enhanced Fisher model the best result comes out. In our case, the out put is the 7 emotional weighting. Such weighting information transmitted to the PDA via a mobile network, is used for non-photorealistic facial expression animation. To render a 3-D avatar which has unique facial character, we adopted the cartoon-like shading method. We found that facial expression animation using emotional curves is more effective in expressing the timing of an expression comparing to the linear interpolation method.

Evaluation of the effect of radial distortion for a holographic stereogram demands conducting an experiment which comprises rendering of a 3D obejc, acquisition of perspective images, rearrangement of the acquired images for hogel images and quality assessment of the observing image reconstructed from the holographic stereogram. We propose numerical implementation of this evaluation by a specially developed algorithm for modeling of all required steps. The modeling is done by using a numerical model of an optical engine for generation of radially distorted hogel images at various degrees of distortion. The distorted images are used to form the holographic stereogram and to make the numerically reconstructed images from the holographic stereogram which are observed by an observer at desired location. The reconstructed images are compared by using PSNR.
