이미지 분석을 통한 재료의 상 구분은 재료의 미세구조 분석을 위해 필수적이다. 이미지 분석에 주로 사용되는 마이크로-CT 이미지는 대체로 재료를 구성하고 있는 상에 따라 회색조 값이 다르게 나타나므로 이미지의 회색조 값 비교를 통해 상을 구분한다. 순환골재의 고체상은 수화된 시멘트풀과 천연골재로 구분되는데, 시멘트풀과 천연골재는 CT이미지 상에서 유사한 회색조 분포를 보여 상을 구분하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 Unet-VGG16 네트워크를 활용하여 순환골재 CT 이미지로부터 천연골재를 분할하는 자동화 방법을 제안하였다. 딥러닝 네트워크를 활용하여 2차원 순환골재 CT 이미지로부터 천연골재 영역을 분할하는 방법과 이를 3차원으로 적층하여 3차원 천연골재 이미지를 얻는 방법을 제시하였다. 선별된 3차원 천연골재 이미지에서 각각의 골재 입자를 분할하기 위해 이미지 필터링을 사용하였다. 골재 영역 분할 성능을 정확도, 정밀도, 재현율 F1 스코어를 통해 검증하였다.

In this paper, we propose a new connected operator using morphological grayscale reconstruction for region-based coding. First, an effective method of reference-image creation is proposed, which is based on the size as well as the contrast. The conventional connected operators are good for removing small regions, but have a serious drawback for low-contrast regions that are larger than the structuring element. That is, when the conventional connected operators are applied to these regions. the simplification becomes less effective or several meaningful regions are merged to one region. To avoid this, the conventional geodesic dilation is modified to propose an adaptive operator. To reduce the effect of inappropriate propagation, pixels reconstructed to the original values are excluded in the dilation operation. Experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm achieves better performance in terms of the reconstruction of flat zones. The picture quality has also been improved by about 7dB, compared to the conventional methods.

A variety of medical service applications in the field of the Internet of Things (IoT) are being studied. Segmentation is important to identify meaningful regions in images and is also required in 3D images. Previous methods have been based on gray value and shape. The Visible Korean dataset consists of serially sectioned high-resolution color images. Unlike computed tomography or magnetic resonance images, automatic segmentation of color images is difficult because detecting an object's boundaries in colored images is very difficult compared to grayscale images. Therefore, skilled anatomists usually segment color images manually or semi-automatically. We present an out-of-core 3D segmentation method for large-scale image datasets. Our method can segment significant regions in the coronal and sagittal planes, as well as the axial plane, to produce a 3D image. Our system verifies the result interactively with a multi-planar reconstruction view and a 3D view. Our system can be used to train unskilled anatomists and medical students. It is also possible for a skilled anatomist to segment an image remotely since it is difficult to transfer such large amounts of data.

In this paper, a simple nondestructive technology is used to investigate unstained biological blood cells in three dimensions (3D). The technology employs a reflective phase-only spatial light modulator (SLM) for displaying the phase hologram of the object being tested, and a Fourier lens for its reconstruction. The phase hologram is generated via superposing a digital random phase on the 2D image of the object. The phase hologram is then displayed by the SLM with 256 grayscale levels, and reconstructed by a Fourier lens to present the object in 3D. Since noise is the main problem in this method, the windowed Fourier filtering (WFF) method is applied to suppress the noise of the reconstructed object. The quality of the reconstructed object is refined and the noise level suppressed by approximately 40%. The technique is applied to objects: the National Institute of Standards (NIS) logo, and a film of unstained peripheral blood. Experimental results show that the proposed technique can be used for rapid investigation of unstained biological blood cells in 3D for disease diagnosis. Moreover, it can be used for viewing unstained white blood cells, which is still challenging with an optical microscope, even at large magnification.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate accessibility condition of buildings in a college from manual wheel chair users' perspective in order to suggest improvements, and to develop 3D accessibility maps in order to assist manual wheelchair users' prior planning for the building use. In May 2020, on-site investigation was held to three buildings in Chungbuk National University. Major findings were as follows. (1) There were some building entrances that showed level difference over 2cm without proper ramp with slow slope 1/8 or less. (2) Some rooms were found to have accessibility issues to have floors with height more than 2cm, and/or to have no height-adjustable desks. (3) Although accessible restrooms were in good condition for manual wheelchair users' access and use, it is suggested to install accessible restroom for each gender in each floor for better access. Using the study results, 2-dimensional accessibility maps for each floor were developed in color and grayscale, which were further developed into 3-dimensional accessibility maps for each building.

In this paper, we present the effect of binocular cues which plays crucial role for the visualization of a stereoscopic or 3D image. This study is useful in extracting depth and disparity information by image processing technique. A linear relation between the object distance and the image distance is presented to discuss the cause of cybersickness. In the experimental results, three dimensional view of the depth map between the 2D images is shown. A median filter is used to reduce the noises available in the disparity map image. After the median filter, two filter algorithms such as 'Gabor' filter and 'Canny' filter are tested for disparity visualization between two images. The 'Gabor' filter is to estimate the disparity by texture extraction and discrimination methods of the two images, and the 'Canny' filter is used to visualize the disparity by edge detection of the two color images obtained from stereoscopic cameras. The 'Canny' filter is better choice for estimating the disparity rather than the 'Gabor' filter because the 'Canny' filter is much more efficient than 'Gabor' filter in terms of detecting the edges. 'Canny' filter changes the color images directly into color edges without converting them into the grayscale. As a result, more clear edges of the stereo images as compared to the edge detection by 'Gabor' filter can be obtained. Since the main goal of the research is to estimate the horizontal disparity of all possible regions or edges of the images, thus the 'Canny' filter is proposed for decipherable visualization of the disparity.

Purpose: Tonsilloliths are calcifications found in the crypts of the palatal tonsils and can be detected on routine panoramic examinations. This study was performed to highlight the benefits of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the diagnosis of tonsilloliths appearing bilaterally on panoramic radiographs. Materials and Methods: The sample group consisted of 7 patients who had bilateral radiopaque lesions at the area of the ascending ramus on panoramic radiographs. CBCT images for every patient were obtained from both sides of the jaw to determine the exact locations of the lesions and to rule out other calcifications. The calcifications were evaluated on the CBCT images using Ez3D2009 software. Additionally, the obtained images in DICOM format were transferred to ITK SNAP 2.4.0 pc software for semiautomatic segmentation. Segmentation was performed using contrast differences between the soft tissues and calcifications on grayscale images, and the volume in mm3 of the segmented three dimensional models were obtained. Results: CBCT scans revealed that what appeared on panoramic radiographs as bilateral images were in fact unilateral lesions in 2 cases. The total volume of the calcifications ranged from 7.92 to $302.5mm^3$. The patients with bilaterally multiple and large calcifications were found to be symptomatic. Conclusion: The cases provided the evidence that tonsilloliths should be considered in the differential diagnosis of radiopaque masses involving the mandibular ramus, and they highlight the need for a CBCT scan to differentiate pseudo- or ghost images from true bilateral pathologies.
