This paper shows that blind deconvolution has only finite solutions when an original image and a point spread function are nonzero over a restricted domain, in other words, an observed image has a compact support. The key of the proof is to use z-transformations and factorizations of polynomials. Then, we propose an algorithm to find all finite solutions under the boundary condition. Finally, we confirm that we can extract all sets of an original image and a point spread function from a degraded image by using our algorithm in numerical examples.

본 논문에서는 MPEG-7 비주얼 디스크립터를 기반으로 Digital Image의 효과적인 검색이 가능한 시스템의 개발하였다. MPEG-7에 포함되어 있는 비주얼 디스크립터 툴은 컬러, 텍스처, shape, motion, localization, 얼굴 인식 등을 포함한다. 이들 MPEG-7에서 제공하는 비주얼 디스크립터를 그대로 이용하여 Digital Image의 검색 시스템을 구현하기에는 시스템이 불필요하게 커질 수 있으며 Digital Image의 검색 성능이 그다지 높지 않다는 문제점이 발생한다. 구체적으로는 모든 디스크립터를 이용하여 데이터베이스에 존재하는 모든 Digital Imag에 대한 검색을 수행하기에는 많은 처리시간이 요구된다는 것과 어떠한 디스크립터를 이용해야 정확한 검색이 이루어질지 알 수 없기 때문이다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는, MPEG-7 비주얼 디스크립터의 특성을 저작권위원회에서 제공받은 데이터베이스를 이용하여 분석하고 이들 디스크립터의 효과적인 결합 기술을 개발하였다. 기존의 디스크립터 결합 방식은 각각의 디스크립터에 동일한 가중치를 부여하고 검색을 수행하는 방식이었으나 본 논문에서는 정보이론을 기반으로 디스크립터의 가중치를 자동으로 부여하는 방식으로 검색 시스템을 구성하였다. 개발된 시스템은 기존의 동일한 가중치를 부여한 시스템에 비해서 데이터베이스에 대한 각 디스크립터의 특성을 반영하여 가중치를 결정하도록 구성하였다.

In this paper we propose a new method of Depth-Image-Based Rendering (DIBR) for Free-viewpoint TV (FTV). In the proposed method, virtual viewpoint images are rendered with 3D warping instead of estimating the view-dependent depth since depth estimation is usually costly and it is desirable to eliminate it from the rendering process. However, 3D warping causes some problems that do not occur in the method with view-dependent depth estimation; for example, the appearance of holes on the rendered image, and the occurrence of depth discontinuity on the surface of the object at virtual image plane. Depth discontinuity causes artifacts on the rendered image. In this paper, these problems are solved by reconstructing disparity information at virtual camera position from neighboring two real cameras. In the experiments, high quality arbitrary viewpoint images were obtained.

Significant attention has recently been drawn to digital home photo albums that use face detection technology. The tendency can be found in home photo albums that people prefer to allocate concerned objects in the center of the image rather than the boundary when they take a picture. To improve detection performance and speed that are important factors of face detection task, this paper proposes a face detection method that takes spatial context information into consideration. Experiments were performed to verify the usefulness of the proposed method and results indicate that the proposed face detection method can efficiently reduce the false positive rate as well as the runtime of face detection.

A computer-generated hologram(CGH) is made for three-dimensional image reconstruction of a virtual object which is a difficult to irradiate the laser light directly. One of the adverse effect factors is quantization of wave front computed by program when a computer-generated hologram is made. Amplitude element is not considered in Kinoform, it needs processing to reduce noise or false image. So several investigation was reported that the improvement of reconstructed image of Kinoform. Means to calculate the most suitable complex amplitude distribution are iterative algorithm, simulated annealing algorithm and genetic Algorithm. Error diffusion method reconstructed to separate the object as for the noise that originated in the quantization error. So it is efficient method to obtain high quality image with not many processing.

The infringement of the copyright is a problem by the distribution of digital contents copied illegally. The digital watermark is expected as a thing preventing unjust copying by burying information in digital data such as image, animation, the sound, TV, radio and movies. [1] [2]But a noise is included in a digital watermark reproduction image. So there is the case that the certification of the reproduction image has difficulty with. If a computer cannot recognize the information reproduced from digital watermarking, the information does not have a meaning. This paper aimed at improvement of the proof of a digital-watermarking reproduction image. And it is verified whether the difference of the form of a character affects the degree of correlation.

High dynamic range image can describe the real world scenes that have a wide range of luminance intensity. To display high dynamic range (HDR) image into conventional displayable devices such as monitors and printers, we proposed the logarithmic based global mapping algorithm that consider the features of image using mapping parameters. Based on characteristics of image, we first modify input luminance values for reproducing perceptually tuned images and then displayable output values are obtained directly. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm achieves good subjective results while preserving details of image, furthermore proposed algorithm has fast simple and practical structure for implementation.

In this paper, we examine the fundamental performance of image coding schemes based on multipulse model. First, we introduce several kinds of pulse search methods (i.e., correlation method, pulse overlap search method and pulse amplitude optimization method) for the model. These pulse search methods are derived from auto-correlation function of impulse responses and cross-correlation function between host signals and impulse responses. Next, we explain the basic procedure of multipulse image coding scheme, which uses the above pulse search methods in order to encode the high frequency component of an original image. Finally, by means of computer simulation for some test images, we examine the PSNR(Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio) and computational complexity of these methods.

본 논문에서는 다수의 영상에서 발견된 특징점의 정확한 정합을 위한 비선형 최적화 기법을 제안한다. 영상에서 발견된 특징점은 선형 해법에 의해 다수의 영상간의 변환을 구할 수 있지만 큰 오차를 수반하게 된다. 이는 영상이 생성되는 모델이 비선형이며, 다수시점간의 운동역시 비선형의 형태를 띄기 때문이다. 하지만 다수의 영상의 비선형 최적화는 일반적인 비선형 해법을 도입하였을 때에는 복잡도가 지수적으로 증가하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Levenberg-Marquardt 비선형 최적화 방법의 희박해법(Sparse solution)을 이용하여 다수의 특징점간의 변환을 구하는 방법을 보인다.

Multimedia boom has happened worldwide these days. In multimedia, we use several kinds of media such as character, figure, voice, music, still images, moving picture etc.. Then I think image including moving picture is the most effective and important media for human being. Creating digital images using a computer has the following two main approaches, depending on how the computer is used. 1. CG Technology. Created images, produced through computer graphics. 2. Digital Image Processing. Images processed through digital image processing technologies. Approach (1) is very popular as Computer Graphics. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional computer graphics techniques are used over wide applications today. On the other hand, Approach (2), which uses digital image processing technology, has been attracting attention lately, in the filed of movies and television. In this report, I will introduce these approaches of CG and digital image processing, and show some application fields such as current movies.
