In this paper, we proposed a river water level detection and tracking of the river or dams based on image processing system. In past, most of the water level detection system used various water sensors. Those water sensors works perfectly but have many drawbacks such as high cost and harsh weather. Water level monitoring system helps in forecasting early river disasters and maintenance of the water body area. However, the early river disaster warning system introduces many conflicting requirements. Surveillance camera based water level detection system depends on either the area of interest from the water body or on optical flow algorithm. This proposed system is focused on water scaling area of a river or dam to detect water level. After the detection of scale area from water body, the proposed algorithm will immediately focus on the digits available on that area. Using the numbers on the scale, water level of the river is predicted. This proposed system is successfully tested on different water bodies to detect the water level area and predicted the water level.

An object detection algorithm using a modified IDM(Image Differential Method) is proposed for detecting an object in a level crossing area. The conventional object detection method using LASER light has the deadzone that it cannot detect small objects, while the object detection method using image data in a level crossing area can detect such small objects. But the image data in a level crossing area can be changeable easily because the data is outdoor and sensitive to such surrounding environments as the change of the sun beam, the shadow of cars, and so on. So we resolve these problems by adding the normalization and the process for shadow of the image data in a level crossing area to the basic IDM(Image Differential Method).

붕괴사고가 발생하였을 시, 피해악화를 방지하기 위해 즉각적인 대응이 필요하며 피해면적 산출, 대응 및 복구 계획 수립 등이 이루어져야 한다. 이를 위해선 피해지역에 대한 정확한 탐지가 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구는 붕괴사고 피해탐지를 위해 신속하고 실시간 대응이 가능한 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)를 활용하여 피해지역 탐지를 수행하였다. 연구대상지역은 재개발 사업이 착수되면서 주택 및 아파트의 철거가 진행 중에 있는 울산 중구 B-05 주택재개발 지역으로 선정하였다. 이 지역은 건물의 철거 모습이 붕괴된 상태와 유사하고 철거 전후의 변화가 뚜렷하게 나타나 있으며, 2019년 5월 17일, 7월 9일 각각 UAV 영상을 획득하였다. 건물의 붕괴 전후 영상에서 변화지역을 피해지역으로 판단하였으며, 이를 위해 대표적인 변화탐지 기법인 분광벡터 변화분석 기법(Change Vector Analysis)과 SLIC(Simple Linear Iterative Clustering)기반 superpixel 기법을 이용하였다. 피해지역을 정확하게 탐지하기 위해 비관심지역(식생)을 ExG(Excess Green)를 이용하여 1차적으로 제거해주었고, 변화탐지가 된 객체들 중 면적으로 인한 오탐지가 된 객체들은 최소면적을 계산하여 최종적으로 제거해주었다. 그 결과 변화지역 탐지의 전체결과는 95.39%를 나타냈으며, 추후 붕괴사고에 대한 대응 및 복구대책 및 피해액 산출 등 다양한 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper presents a comparative analysis on three different types of performance indices of obstacle detection for an overlapped ultrasonic sensor ring. Due to beam overlap, the entire sensing zone of each ultrasonic sensor can be divided into three smaller sensing subzones, which leads to significant reduction of positional uncertainty in obstacle detection. First, the positional uncertainty in obstacle detection is expressed in terms of the area of a sensing subzone, and type 1 performance index is then defined as the area ratio of side and center sensing subzones. Second, based on the area of a sensing subzone, type 2 performance index is defined taking into account the size of the entire range of obstacle detection as well as the degree of the positional uncertainty in obstacle detection. Third, the positional uncertainty in obstacle detection is now expressed in terms of the length of the uncertainty arc spanning a sensing subzone, and type 3 performance index is then defined as the average value of the uncertainty arc lengths over the entire range of obstacle detection. Fourth, using a commercial low directivity ultrasonic sensor, the changes of three different performance indices depending on the parameter of an overlapped ultrasonic sensor ring are examined and compared.

본 논문에서는 상관필터를 이용한 영상 추적에서 탐색 영역의 크기 조절이 가능한 재탐지 방법을 제안한다. 실제 장비를 통해 영상 추적 기능을 실행할 때에는 표적이 특정 물체에 가리고 다시 나타나는 일이 빈번하게 일어나는데, 따라서 표적의 소실 판단과 재탐지 방법이 필요하다. 본 알고리즘은 강인한 추적을 위해 커널 상관필터를 사용한다. 일반적인 상관필터를 활용한 영상 추적 알고리즘에서는 표적을 탐지하는 범위가 학습된 필터의 크기에 국한된다. 하지만 표적의 가림이 오랜 시간 지속될수록 표적의 위치는 예측된 위치에서 벗어날 가능성이 커지고, 따라서 충분히 큰 범위에서 표적의 탐색이 이루어져야 한다. 제안하는 방법은 매 프레임 2%씩 탐색 범위를 넓히며 재탐지를 시도하여 성공률을 높인다. 실험은 항공에서 촬영된 4가지 영상을 활용하였고, 제안한 알고리즘은 재탐지가 어려운 데이터셋에서도 성공적인 결과를 보였다.

Vibrio species are Gram-negative basophils that are ubiquitous in seawater, increasing in number as the water temperature increases. Humans are usually infected by the consumption of contaminated seawater or seafood. V. alginolyticus infection in humans is mainly associated with infections of the skin and ears, such as acute otitis media and cellulitis. In this study, the distribution of V. alginolyticus along the coast of Jeju Island, and its relationship with water temperature, salinity, DO, and pH was investigated. The antibiotic susceptibility of the bacteria isolated was also tested. In seawater, the Daejeong area had the highest detection rate, with 13 cases (21.7%), and the Hallim area showed the lowest detection rate, with eight cases (13.3%) in. In shellfish, the Daejeong area had the highest rate, with seven cases (23.3%), and the Seongsan and Hallim areas had the lowest detection rate, with four cases (13.3%). The overall detection rate was the highest in Daejeong area, with 20 cases (22.2%), and the lowest in the Hallim area, with 12 cases (13.3%). The detection rate was highest when the water temperature was highest.

This paper describes some results of change detection in Tokyo metropolitan area, Japan , using the Landsat TM data, and methods to quantify the ground cover classes. The changes are analyzed using the measures of not only conventional spectral classes but also a set of landscape indices to describe spatial properties of ground cove types using fractal dimension of objects, entropy in the specific windows defining the neighbors of focusing locations. In order eliminate the seasonal radiometric effects on TM data, an automated class labeling method is also attempted. Urban areas are also delineated automatically by defining the boundaries of the urban area. These procedures for urban change detection were implemented by the unified image computing methods proposed by the author, they can be automated in coherent and systematic ways, and it is anticipated to automate the whole procedures. The results of this analysis suggest that Tokyo metropolitan area was extended to the suburban areas along the new transportation networks and the high density area of Tokyo were also very much extended during the period between 1985 and 1995.

Ubiquitous computing is a novel paradigm that is rapidly gaining in the scenario of wireless communications and telecommunications for realizing smart world. As rapid development of sensor technology, smart sensor system becomes more popular in automobile or vehicle. In this study, a new vehicle detection mechanism in real-time for blind spot area is proposed based on imaging sensors. To determine the position of other vehicles on the road is important for operation of driver assistance systems (DASs) to increase driving safety. As the result, blind spot detection of vehicles is addressed using an automobile detection algorithm for blind spots. The proposed vehicle verification utilizes the height and angle of a rear-looking vehicle mounted camera. Candidate vehicle information is extracted using adaptive shadow detection based on brightness values of an image of a vehicle area. The vehicle is verified using a training set with Haar-like features of candidate vehicles. Using these processes, moving vehicles can be detected in blind spots. The detection ratio of true vehicles was 91.1% in blind spots based on various experimental results.

Obstacle detection is a key feature in the safe driving control of electric wheelchairs. The suggested obstacle detection algorithm was designed to provide obstacle avoidance direction and detect the existence of cliffs. By means of this information, the wheelchair can determine where to steer and whether to stop or go. A 3D depth camera (Microsoft KINECT) is used to scan the 3D point data of the scene, extract information on obstacles, and produce a steering direction for obstacle avoidance. To be specific, ground detection is applied to extract the obstacle candidates from the scanned data and the candidates are projected onto a 2D map. The 2D map provides discretized information of the extracted obstacles to decide on the avoidance direction (left or right) of the wheelchair. As an additional function, cliff detection is developed. By defining the "cliffband," the ratio of the predefined band area and the detected area within the band area, the cliff detection algorithm can decide if a cliff is in front of the wheelchair. Vehicle tests were carried out by applying the algorithm to the electric wheelchair. Additionally, detailed functions of obstacle detection, such as providing avoidance direction and detecting the existence of cliffs, were demonstrated.
