A digital hologram (DH) is an ultra-high value-added video content that includes 3D information in 2D data. Therefore, its intellectual property rights must be protected for its distribution. For this, this paper proposes a watermarking method of DH using a deep neural network. This method is a watermark (WM) invisibility, attack robustness, and blind watermarking method that does not use host information in WM extraction. The proposed network consists of four sub-networks: pre-processing for each of the host and WM, WM embedding watermark, and WM extracting watermark. This network expand the WM data to the host instead of shrinking host data to WM and concatenate it to the host to insert the WM by considering the characteristics of a DH having a strong high frequency component. In addition, in the training of this network, the difference in performance according to the data distribution property of DH is identified, and a method of selecting a training data set with the best performance in all types of DH is presented. The proposed method is tested for various types and strengths of attacks to show its performance. It also shows that this method has high practicality as it operates independently of the resolution of the host DH and WM data.

With advanced technologies applied to transportation, realtime traffic information has been necessary for not only drivers but also agencies. In normal, traffic conditions have been represented to three levels according to congestion: "free", "slow", and "jammed". Those categories and criteria are set up for traffic management even though traffic information is provided for drivers. This study examines how drivers feel current congestion levels and delves into traffic categories and criteria which they recognize. To collect data for drivers' recognition, a survey of freeway travellers is conducted answering the question about traffic flow speed from video image on a freeway section. In the result of the survey, the surveyee preferred a 4-level traffic condition including "delayed" to 3-level traffic condition. As its criteria, 20 km/h, 50 km/h, and 75 km/h were obtained. These results are expected to contribute to building more appropriate traffic information for drivers and providing an operational guideline for Traffic Monitering Centers.

The purpose of this study was to propose the utility which was evaluated the digital image processing and clinical application of the videodensitomery. The experiments were performed with IBM-PC/16bit-AT compatible, video camera(CCdtr55, Sony Co., Japan), an color monitor(MultiSync 3D, NEC, Japan) providing the resolution of 512×480 and 64 levels of gray. Sylvia Image Capture Board for the ADC(analog to digital converter) was used, composed of digitized image from digital signal and the radiographic density was measured by 256 level of gray. The periapical radiograph(Ektaspeed EP-21, Kodak Co., U. S. A) which was radiographed dried human mandible by exposure condition of 70 kVp and 48 impulses, was used for primary X-ray detector. And them evaluated for digitzed image by low and high pass filtering, correlations between aluminum equivalent values and the thickness of aluminum step wedge, aluminum equivalent values of sound enamel, dentin, and alveolar bone, the range of diffuse density for gray level ranging from 0 to 255. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The edge between aluminum steps of digitized image were somewhat blurred by low pass filtering, but edge enhancement could be resulted by high pass filtering. Expecially, edge enhancement between distal root of lower left 2nd molar and alveolar lamina dura was observed. 2. The correlation between aluminum equivalent values and the thickness of aluminum step wedge was intimated, yielding the coefficient of correlation r=0.9997(p<0.00l), the regression line was described by Y=0.9699X+0.456, and coefficient of variation amounting to 1.5%. 3. The aluminum equivalent values of sound enamel, dentin, and alvolar bone were 15.41㎜, 12.48㎜, 10.35㎜, respectively. 4. The range of diffuse density for gray level ranging from 0 to 255 was wider enough than that of photodenstiometer to be within the range of 1-4.9.

We proposed a method for embedding coded binary data into EZW bitstreams and extracting embedded data from EZW bitstreams using the traditional EZW decoder. EZW coder have two passes. The first pass, the dominant pass have four symbols, P, N, IZ, ZTR. The second pass is sub-ordinary pass which specifies the value of symbol. In the proposed methods, we use ZTR symbol in the dominant pass. We embed watermark into ZTR symbol in the highest frequency band which original image is transferred by wavelet transform. The proposed digital watermarking method shows good properties for robustness in the low bit rate. Accordingly, based on the proposed digital watermarking, video and 3D image watermarking will become a new area for research in the near future.

The number of Free-Form construction projects are increased by development of 3D parametric modeling technology. The reason of Free-Form Architecture's appearance is advance of digital technology. BIM simulation decision making support is inefficient because it is used in virtual reality. In this study, we developed "AR naviX" which is the digital contents of construction management based on AR for effective decision making support to Free-Form construction project. It reflects construction site by using site picture and video, or Laser scanning data. User feel high reality and is absorbed in augmented reality. So they can reduce the time of decision.

The purposes of this study were clinical comparison and evaluation between digital radiography and conventional radiography for the detection of artificial interproximal caries. Four freshly extracted, unrestored posterior teeth were obtained and caries was simulated by drilling semicircled defects with variable size at the interproximal surface of each tooth. The experiments were performed with IBM-PC/32 bit-DX compatible, video camera(VM-S8200, Hitachi Co., Japan), and color monitor(Multisync 3D, NEC, Japan). Sylvia Image Capture Board for the ADC(analog to digital converter) was used, and spatial resolution was 512 × 480 with 256 gray levels. The obtained results were as follows: 1. At the condition of under exposure, the radiographs were superior to the digital images in readability. Also, as the size of the artificial lesion was increased, readability of the radiographs was elevated. 2. The digital images were superior to the radiographs in readability especially under over exsposure. 3. As the exposure time and size of lesion was increased, the gray level of region of interest of the digital image was decreased proportionally. 4. As the F-value of average gray level of region of interest at individual exposure time and size of lesion, gray level of the all lesion sizes was decreased in comparison with that of the normal enamel.

As the development of wireless techniques, transmission technology of body area network plays an important role in realizing a welfare society by combining IT and BT when applying to vehicles. Off-body WBAN (Wireless Body Area Network) systems for video data transmission require low battery consumption and high data rate. To satisfy the requirement, UWB has been considered as a promising candidate for high rate WBAN. This paper introduces an antenna selection technique for ultra-wideband based off-body WBAN system with low complexity. In this paper, we propose an antenna selection scheme using non-coherent receiver for off-body high data rate WBAN system. The proposed receiver antenna selection method takes advantage of the characteristic of BPPM (Binary Pulse Position Modulation). With the property of BPPM, this scheme calculates the approximate SNR of the received signal with non-coherent receiver.

Multi-view video system provides both realistic 3D feelings and free-view navigation. But it is hard to transmit too huge data, so we send only two or three view images and generate intermediate view image using depth information. In this paper, we propose high quality multi-view image generation method from stereoscopic images. Since the stereo matching method does not provide accurate disparity values for all the pixels, especially at the occlusion area, we propose an occlusion handling method using the background pixels at first. We also apply a joint bilateral filtering to enhance the disparity map at the object boundary since it can affect the quality of synthesized images significantly. Finally, we can generate virtual view images at intermediate view positions using confidence map to reduce bad pixel and hole's error. Experimental results show the proposed method performs better than the conventional method.

The drone market in Korea is growing with a focus on the use of prevention, defense, exploration and surveying, search and rescue, video shooting, and facility management. However, the foreign dependence on drone's core technologies and components is high. Drone-powered countries such as the US and China are expanding the weaponization of drones, which can intensify trade wars between countries, such as strengthening import and export regulations and monopoly. Therefore, Korea should put R & D and localization of core technology, parts, and accessories of next generation drone first. For this, policy research and investment in infrastructure, equipment, and research personnel should be preceded. This study studied the evaluation of investment priorities by infrastructure sector (facility equipment, utilization field, and demand manpower) to foster small drone companies through literature studies. To this end, we expanded and reclassified e isting research, developed investment prioritization indicators through expert group interviews and reviews, derived future uncertainties, and selected investment priorities by infrastructure sector using AHP techniques. Finally, it proposed an infrastructure construction strategy to foster small drone companies in terms of drone development support, utilization support.
