  • 완전 탐색 블록 정합 알고리즘(FBMA)은 다양한 움직임 추정 알고리즘 중 최상의 움직임 추정을 할 수 있으나, 방대한 계산량이 실시간 처리의 적용에 장애 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 완전 탐색 블록 정합 알고리즘에 비해 더 낮은 계산량과 유사한 화질을 가지는 새로운 고속 움직임 추정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 방법에서는 공간적인 상관성을 이용함으로써 적절한 탐색 영역의 크기를 예측할 수 있다. 현재 블록의 움직임 추정을 위하여 이웃 블록이 가지고 있는 움직임과 탐색 영역의 크기를 이용하여 현재 블록의 탐색 영역을 적응적으로 변화시키는 방법이다. 이 예측값으로 현재 블록의 탐색 영역 크기를 결정한 후, FBMA와 같이 이 영역 안의 모든 화소점들에 대하여 현재 블록을 정합하여 움직임 벡터를 추정한다. 컴퓨터 모의 실험 결과 계산량 측면에서 제안 방법이 완전 탐색 블록 정합 알고리즘보다 50%정도 감소하였으며, PSNR 측면에서는 0.08dB에서 1.29dB 정도 감소하는 좋은 결과를 얻었다.Abstract Full search block-matching algorithm (FBMA) was shown to be able to produce the best motion compensated images among various motion estimation algorithms. However, huge computational load inhibits its applicability in real applications. A new motion estimation algorithm with lower computational complexity and good image quality when compared to the FBMA will be presented in this paper. In the proposed method, The appropriate search area can be predicted by using the temporal correlation between neighbouring blocks. For motion estimation of the current block, it is the method changing adjustably search area of current block by using motion and search area size of the neighbouring block. After deciding search area size of the current block with this predicted value, we estimate motion vector that matching current block like the FBMA for every pixel in this area. By the computer simulation the computation amount of the proposed method can be greatly decreased about 50% than that of the FBMA and the good result of the PSNR can be attained.

  • In this paper we propose the CBIR algorithm which is based on a novel image block method that combined both color and edge feature. The main drawback of global histogram representation is dependent of the color without spatial or shape information, a new image block method that divided the image to 8 related blocks which contained more information of the image is utilized to extract image feature. Based on these 8 blocks, histogram equalization and edge detection techniques are also used for image retrieval. The experimental results show that the proposed image block method has better ability of characterizing the image contents than traditional block method and can perform the retrieval system efficiently.

  • Distributed compressed sensing (DCS) states that we can recover the sparse signals from very few linear measurements. Various studies about DCS have been carried out recently. In many practical applications, there is no prior information except for standard sparsity on signals. The typical example is the sparse signals have block-sparse structures whose non-zero coefficients occurring in clusters, while the cluster pattern is usually unavailable as the prior information. To discuss this issue, a new algorithm, called backtracking-based adaptive orthogonal matching pursuit for block distributed compressed sensing (DCSBBAOMP), is proposed. In contrast to existing block methods which consider the single-channel signal reconstruction, the DCSBBAOMP resorts to the multi-channel signals reconstruction. Moreover, this algorithm is an iterative approach, which consists of forward selection and backward removal stages in each iteration. An advantage of this method is that perfect reconstruction performance can be achieved without prior information on the block-sparsity structure. Numerical experiments are provided to illustrate the desirable performance of the proposed method.

  • In this paper, two methods based on the use of morphology and pattern matching prior to detect classified defects automatically on the back light unit which is a part of display equipments are proposed. One is the template check method which detects small size defects by using closing and opening method, and the other is the block matching method which detects big size defects by comparing with four regions of uniform blocks. The TC algorithm also can detect defects on the non-uniform pattern of BLU by using revised Otsu method. The proposed method has been implemented on the automatic defect detection system we developed and has been tested image data of BLU captured by the system.

  • This paper introduces a spatial error concealment technique using directional interpolation in block-based compression. The first step involves finding the spatial direction vectors represented an edge-direction in the lost block using spatial boundary matching algorithm. Then, the error blocks are recovered by directional interpolation through these vectors and concealed by using the recovered blocks which have lower directional boundary matching error out of them relatively. This proposed method is able to deal with errors on macroblock or slice level adaptively. And it has lower complexity and maintains better performance compared to the conventional methods.

  • This paper proposes a new motion estimation algorithm which takes into account the rate-distortion relation in encoding motion compensated error images. The proposed algorithm is based on a new block-matching criterion which is the function of not only the mean squared block-matching error but also the code length for the entropy coded motion vector. The proposed algorithm optimizes the trade-off between the bit rate for motion compensated error images and the bit rate for the motion vectors. Simulation results show that in the motion compensated image coding the proposed motion estimator improves the overall performance by 0.5 dB when compared to the motion estimator which uses MSE only.

  • This paper proposes a real-time approach on the rotational motion estimation and correction for the roll stabilization of the sight system. This method first estimates a rotation center by the least-mean square algorithm based on the motion vectors of some feature points. And, then, a rotation angle is searched for a best matching block between a reference block image and seccessive input images using MPC(maximum pixel count) matching criterion. Finally, motion correction is performed by the bilinear interpolation technique. Various computer simulations show that the estimation performance is good and the proposed algorithm is a real-time implementable one to the TMS320C6415(500MHz) DSP.
