Concentric mosaics are made with arranging and summing of video frames by using common spacial standards. Compared with previous works on 3-D wavelet transform coding, we have made important design considerations to enable flexible partial decoding and bit-stream random access. A just-in-time(JIT) rendering engine of the compressed concentric mosaic is developed. However, computationally, it is still demanding to accomplish the real-time rendering. Only the contents for specific scene representation are need to be decoded by maintaining compressed data. Thus our proposed algorithm is able to render real concentric mosaic by using lifting scheme instead of wavelet transform.

In In this paper, we proposed a new JPEG2000 codec using multiresolution-based rendering (MRBR) technique for video compression of 3-dimensional digital cinema. We introduced discrete wavelet transform (DWT) for stereoscopic image and stereo matching technique in the wavelet domain. The disparity was extracted using stereo matching and transmitted with the reference (left) image. Since the generated right image was degraded by the occlusion lesion, the residual image which is generated from difference between the original right image and the generated one was transmitted at the same tine. The disparity data was extracted using the dynamic programming method in the disparity domain. There is high correlation between the higher and lower subbands. Therefore we decreased the calculation amount and enhanced accuracy by restricting the search window and applying the disparity information generated from higher subband.

In this paper, we propose an efficient algerian for wavelet-based sti image coding method that utilizes the rate-distortion (R-D) theory. Since conventional tree-structured image coding schemes do not consider the rate-distortion theory properly, they show reduced coding performance. In this paper, we apply an rate-distortion optimized embedding (RDE) operation into the set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) algorithm. In this algorithm, we use the rate-distortion slope as a criterion for the coding order of wavelet coefficients in SPIHT lists. We also describe modified set partitioning and rate-distortion optimized list scan methods. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the SPIHT algorithm and the rate-distortion optimized embedding algerian with respect to the PSNR (peak signal-to-noise ratio) performance.

Region-of-Interest is the region within the image selected for the users needs. The development of multimedia has made the expectation of image telecommunication higher, but the usage of the image, image transmission time, and image storage create problems. When transmitter or the receiver stops transmission at some point, we can still see the general image and the ROI maintains better image quality if the ROI is specified beforehand. In this paper, three methods are proposed and constructed for the transmission of ROI. In the first method, the ROI and the background are separated and then encoded as described above. The second method is to encode without separating the ROI and the background. The masked region is scaled and the coefficients are increased, then the region is transmitted first. The third method is the loseless coding of the ROI. For loseless coding, real number tap cannot be restored perfectly due to the rounding error, so the method of using integers is used. The proposed method shows a better performance than EZW even in case of ROI's PSNR at quality of 40 dB.

Digital video content is the most information-intensive and high-value content. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the intellectual property rights of these contents, and this paper also proposes a watermarking method of digital image for this purpose. The proposed method uses the frequency characteristics of 2-Dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform (2D-DWT) for digital images and digital watermark on global data without using local or specific data of the image for watermark embedding. The method to insert digital watermark data uses a simple Quantization Index Modulation (QIM) and a multiple watermarking method that inserts the same watermark data in multiple. When extracting a watermark, multiple watermarks are extracted and the final watermark data is determined by a simple statistical method. This method is an empirical method for experimentally determining the parameters in the watermark embedding process. The proposed method performs experiments on various images against various attacks and shows the superiority of the proposed method by comparing the performance with the representative existing methods.

본 논문에서는 웨이블릿 변환을 이용하여 추정된 변위 벡터와 이를 이용한 물체의 분할을 통해 특징 점을 추출하고 3차원 와이어 프레임(wire-frame)을 생성하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 우선, 웨이블릿 변환을 이용하여 빠른 시간 안에 변위를 측정하고, 이를 통해 배경과 물체를 분리해 내었다. 그런 뒤에, 변위 벡터를 이용하여, 깊이 정보를 추정해 내고, 동시에 물체로부터 두드러진 특징 값들을 추출하여 3차원 와이어 프레임 생성을 위한 거리 값으로 사용하였다. 마지막으로, 일반적인 delaunay triangulation에서 생길 수 있는 오 정합을 본 논문에서 제안하는 전경/배경 분할 알고리즘을 이용하여 제거 하여 정확한 3차원 모델을 생성하였다. 아울러, 본 논문에서 제안하는 웨이블릿을 이용한 빠른 3D 모델링 방법을 원 영상을 이용한 방법과 비교하여, 더 좋은 결과를 보여줌으로써, 계산 시간 뿐만 아니라 정확성에서도 만족할 만한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

This thesis proposes an effi챠ent method for extracting a prostate volume from 3D ultrasound image by using wavelet transform and SVM classification. In the proposed method, a modulus image for each 2D slice is generated by averaging detail images of horizontal and vertical orientations at several scales, which has the sharpest local maxima and the lowest noise power compared to those of all single scales. Prostate contour vertices are determined accurately using a SVM classifier, where feature vectors are composed of intensity and texture moments investigated along radial lines. Experimental results show that the proposed method yields absolute mean distance of on average 1.89 pixels when the contours obtained manually by an expert are used as reference data.

Each class in remotely sensed imagery has different spectral and spatial characteristics. Natural features have relatively smaller spatial changes than spectral changes. Meanwhile, urban area in which buildings, roads, and cars are included is inclined to face more changes of spatial variation than spectral one. This study aims to propose the new urban complexity index (UCI) based on the 3D DWT computation of remotely sensed imageries considering these characteristics. And then we analyze relation between index and land cover map. The 3DWUCI values are related to class and the indices of urban area are greater than natural area. The proposed UCI could be used to express effectively the standard of urban complexity over a wide area.
