광 간섭 단층 촬영(optical coherence tomography : OCT)은 생체 미세 조직의 단면을 약 $1{\mu}m$ 해상도의 영상으로 획득하기 위한 고해상도 영상 기법으로 영상 진단 의학에 주로 응용된다. 본 논문에서는 OCT 시스템의 원리를 알아보고 이론을 바탕으로 시스템을 직접 구현한다. 또한 안광학과 치과학 영역에서의 응용을 실험적으로 알아보기 위하여 쥐 눈과 인간의 대구치 표본을 이용하여 실험하였다. 구현한 시스템을 이용하여 두 가지 표본 실험을 통해 2-D 영상 데이터를 획득한다. 획득한 2-D 영상을 MATLAB과 OPEN-GL을 이용하여 생체 조직 정보 획득에 용이한 3-D OCT 영상을 구축하고 분석한다. 3-D 영상 구축에 OPEN-GL을 이용함으로써 MATLAB에 비해 처리 시간을 약 10배 단축하였다.

The depth information of an image is used in a variety of applications including 2D/3D conversion, multi-view extraction, modeling, depth keying, etc. There are various methods to acquire depth information, such as the method to use a stereo camera, the method to use the depth camera of flight time (TOF) method, the method to use 3D modeling software, the method to use 3D scanner and the method to use a structured light just like Microsoft's Kinect. In particular, the depth camera of TOF method measures the distance using infrared light, whereas TOF sensor depends on the sensitivity of optical light of an image sensor (CCD/CMOS). Thus, it is mandatory for the existing image sensors to get an infrared light image by bundling several pixels; these requirements generate a phenomenon to reduce the resolution of an image. This thesis proposed a measure to acquire a high-resolution image through gradual area movement while acquiring a low-resolution image through pixel bundling method. From this measure, one can obtain an effect of acquiring image information in which illumination intensity (lux) and resolution were improved without increasing the performance of an image sensor since the image resolution is not improved as resolving a low-illumination intensity (lux) in accordance with the gradual pixel bundling algorithm.

Although the use of apodization functions in connection with postprocessing of a 2D NMR spectrum proves improved spectral quality, there is usually a trade-off between resolution enhancement and noise suppression due to a classical "uncertainty principle." In this study, therefore, a mathematical deconvolution technique called "Maximum Likelihood Deconvolution (MLD)" was adopted to achieve the spectral resolution and sensitivity enhancement simultaneously. The MLD technique greatly facilitates visualization and restoration of the genuine spectral information from complex 2D NMR spectra that would be problematic with the conventional apodization/FT processing. In particular, application of the MLD to the 2D-NOE spectrum would be very useful to derive the important proton connectivities, which are essential to achieve elucidating the 3D molecular structure.

An programmable current-mode folding and interpolation analog to digital converter (ADC) with programmable interpolator is proposed in this paper. A programmable interpolator is employed not only to vary the resolution of data converter, but also to decrease a power dissipation within the ADC. Because of varying the number of interpolation circuits, resolution is vary from 6 to 10bit. The designed ADC fabricated by a 0.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ n-well CMOS double metal/single poly process. The experimental result shows the power dissipation from 26 to 87mW with a power supply of 3.3V.

One of the main problems in 3D shape measuring systems that use the triangulation of line-shaped laser light is precise center line detection of line-shaped laser stripe. The intensity of a line-shaped laser light stripe on the CCD image varies following to the reflection angles, colors and shapes of objects. In this paper, a new center line detection algorithm to compensate the local intensity variation on a line-shaped laser light stripe is proposed. The 3-D surface shape measuring system using the proposed center line detection algorithm can measure 3-D surface shape with enhanced measurement resolution by using the dynamic shape reconstruction with adaptive pattern clustering of the line-shaped laser light. This proposed 3-D shape measuring system can be easily applied to practical situations of measuring 3-D surface by virtue of high speed measurement and compact hardware compositions.

SPECT 영상에서의 resolution recovery를 기반으로 하는 3D 재구성 기법은 detector면으로부터 거리에 의한 공간적 blur를 보상하여 높은 spatial resolution과 contrast를 가지는 특징이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 재구성 기법 중의 하나인 Philips사의 Astonish 프로그램을 phantom 실험을 통하여 기존의 재구성 기법과 비교, 평가하고 임상적 유용성을 높이고자 하였다. Skylight SPECT system (Philips)에서 NEMA IEC PET body phantom과 Flanges Jaszczak phantom (Data Spectrum corp.)을 이용하여 시간과 거리에 따른 4가지의 다른 입력 조건에서 실험을 실시하였다. 가까운 거리와 먼 거리 (짧은 거리보다 10 cm 더해진 거리)에서 각각 full time (40 kcts/frame)과 half time (full time의 절반)을 적용하여 영상을 얻고, iteration 수에 변화를 주어 MLEM, 3D-OSEM, Astonish로 영상을 재구성하였다. NEMA IEC PET body phantom의 각 sphere에서 background variability에 따른 contrast ratio의 변화양상을 확인하고 각 재구성 기법에서의 최적의 iteration 수를 찾아보았다. 이로부터 얻은 최적의 iteration 수를 Jaszczak phantom 영상의 재구성에 적용하여 비교해보고 실제 환자의 myocardial SPECT data에 대하여 육안적 평가를 실시하였다. 전반적인 contrast ratio는 Astonish가 MLEM과 3D-OSEM보다 높았다. 직경 37 mm의 가장 큰 hot sphere에서 짧은 거리에서는 Astonish가 MLEM과 3D-OSEM보다 각각 27.1%와 17.4%의 더 높은 contrast ratio를 보였고, 먼 거리에서는 40.5%와 32.6%로 더 높았다. 그러나 시간에 따른 변화의 차이는 크게 나타나지 않았다. 또한, 육안적 평가에서 Astonish가 다른 두 재구성 기법에 비하여 더 좋은 영상을 보였다. 이 실험에서는 정량적 분석 및 육안적 평가를 통하여 Astonish가 기존의 영상 재구성 기법인 MLEM과 3D-OSEM에 비하여 시간을 단축시켜 업무의 효율성을 높일 뿐만 아니라 질적으로도 우수한 영상을 구현하여 임상적으로 신뢰성이 높은 검사 결과를 제공할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

A series of kernel regression (KR) algorithms, such as the classic kernel regression (CKR), the 2- and 3-D steering kernel regression (SKR), have been proposed for image and video super-resolution. In existing KR frameworks, a single algorithm is usually adopted and applied for a whole image/video, regardless of region characteristics. However, their performances and computational efficiencies can differ in regions of different characteristics. To take full advantage of the KR algorithms and avoid their disadvantage, this paper proposes a kernel regression framework for video super-resolution. In this framework, each video frame is first analyzed and divided into three types of regions: flat, non-flat-stationary, and non-flat-moving regions. Then different KR algorithm is selected according to the region type. The CKR and 2-D SKR algorithms are applied to flat and non-flat-stationary regions, respectively. For non-flat-moving regions, this paper proposes a similarity-assisted steering kernel regression (SASKR) algorithm, which can give better performance and higher computational efficiency than the 3-D SKR algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that the computational efficiency of the proposed framework is greatly improved without apparent degradation in performance.

In abrupt fire disturbances, high quality images suitable for wildfire damage assessment can be difficult to acquire. Quantifying wildfire burn area and severity are essential measures for quick short-term disaster response and efficient long-term disaster restoration. Planetscope (PS) imagery offers 3 m spatial and daily temporal resolution, which can overcome the spatio-temporal resolution tradeoff of conventional satellites, albeit at the cost of spectral resolution. This study investigated the potential of augmenting PS imagery by integrating the spectral information from Sentinel-2 (S2) differenced Normalized Burn Ratio (dNBR) to PS differenced Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (dNDVI) using histogram matching,specifically for wildfire burn area and severity assessment of the Okgye wildfire which occurred on April 4th, 2019. Due to the difficulty in acquiring reference data, the results of the study were compared to the wildfire burn area reported by Ministry of the Interior and Safety. The burn area estimates from this study demonstrated that the histogram-matched (HM) PS dNDVI image produced more accurate burn area estimates and more descriptive burn severity intervals in contrast to conventional methods using S2. The HM PS dNDVI image returned an error of only 0.691% whereas the S2 dNDVI and dNBR images overestimated the wildfire burn area by 5.32% and 106%, respectively. These improvements using PS were largely due to the higher spatial resolution, allowing for the detection of sparsely distributed patches of land and narrow roads, which were indistinguishable using S2 dNBR. In addition, the integration of spectral information from S2 in the PS image resolved saturation effects in areas of low and high burn severity.
