스테레오 정합을 하기 위해서 먼저 두 이미지의 자기를 정규화 하였고, 밝기가 정규화 된 영상을 이용하여 Canny방식으로 Edge를 검출한 후 에지 적응형 스테레오 정합 방식으로 두 영상을 정합하여 변이도 영상들을 얻었다. 그 중 Canny Edge 방식이 다른 Edge 검출 방식보다 선명한 영상을 추출했다. Canny Edge 방식으로 획득한 스테레오영상을 중위수 필터를 사용하여 잡음을 제거한 후, 필터링 전 후의 영상을 PSNR(Peak Signal to Noise Ratio)로 비교하여 본 결과 개선된 영상을 획득 하였다.

비디오 객체 분할은 MPEG-4와 같은 객체 기반 코딩 단계를 위한 중요한 구성 요소이다. 새로운 MPEG-4 비디오 표준은 움직임 객체의 모양 정보를 고려하여 높은 효율의 부호화 뿐만 아니라 움직임 객체에 대한 내용기반 기능의 부호화를 수행한다. 본 논문은 비디오 시퀀스에서 움직임 객체 분할을 위한 새로운 알고리즘과 VOP(Video Object Plane) 추출 방법을 소개한다. 본 알고리즘은 첫 번째 프레임을 기준영상으로 설정한 후 두 개의 연속된 프레임 사이의 차이 값으로부터 시작된다. 즉 차이영상을 추출한 후 차이영상에 Canny 에지를 적용하고 다음 프레임의 영상에 Canny 에지와 morphologic일 연산을 적용하여 정확한 움직임 객체 에지(Moving Object Edge)를 생성한다. 이후 생성된 에지를 이용하여 VOP를 추출한다. VOP 추출 단계에서 더욱 정확한 움직임 객체 에지를 얻기 위하여 morphological 연산을 수행하였다.

In order to detect and locate edge features precisely in real images we have developed an algorithm by introducing a nonlocal differentiation of intensity profiles called adaptive directional derivative (ADD), which is evaluated independently of varying ramp widths. In this paper, we first develop the edge detector system employing the ADD and then, the performance of the algorithm is illustrated by comparing the results to those from the Canny's edge detector.

This paper proposes an efficient edge detection using Van der Waerden statistic in original and noisy images. An edge is where the intensity of an image moves from a low value to a high value or vice versa. We describe a nonparametric Wilcoxon test and a parametric T test based on statistical hypothesis testing for the detection of edges. We use the threshold determined by specifying significance level $\alpha$, while Bovik, Huang and Munson consider the range of possible values of test statistics for the threshold. From the experimental results of edge detection, the T and Wilcoxon method perform sensitively to the noisy image, while the proposed Waerden method is robust over both noisy and noise-free images under $\alpha$=0.0005. Comparison with our statistical test and Sobel, LoG, Canny operators shows that Waerden method perform more effectively in both noisy and noise-free images.

This paper propose image processing algorithm to prevent safety accidents near by subway platform screen door(PSD). First, edges of the subway PSD images are detected and the boundary line between PSD and subway platform is detected to decide people's approach to the PSD using Hough transform. To do this, we draw the boundary line between the PSD and platform, to detect the boundary line and to decide the people's approach to the detected line is completely connected or not. Generally, edge is the basic characteristic of image; thus, edge detection is very important in image processing applications and computer vision area. The conventional edge detection methods such as Roberts, Sobel, Prewitt, and Laplacian etc, which are using a fixed value of mask, and morphological gradient from the structuring element of view and Canny edge detector are widely used. In this paper, we propose the detection algorithm about the people's approach to the subway PSD to prevent the safety accidents by using Canny edge detector and Hough transform and the computer simulation shows the results.

We propose a simple method for tracking a nonparameterized subject contour in a single video stream with a moving camera and changing background. Then we present a method to eliminate the tracked contour object by replacing with the background scene we get from other frame. First we track the object using LOD (Level-of-Detail) canny edge maps, then we generate background of each image frame and replace the tracked object in a scene by a background image from other frame that is not occluded by the tracked object. Our tracking method is based on level-of-detail (LOD) modified Canny edge maps and graph-based routing operations on the LOD maps. We get more edge pixels along LOD hierarchy. Our accurate tracking is based on reducing effects from irrelevant edges by selecting the stronger edge pixels, thereby relying on the current frame edge pixel as much as possible. The first frame background scene is determined by camera motion, camera movement between two image frames, and other background scenes are computed from the previous background scenes. The computed background scenes are used to eliminate the tracked object from the scene. In order to remove the tracked object, we generate approximated background for the first frame. Background images for subsequent frames are based on the first frame background or previous frame images. This approach is based on computing camera motion. Our experimental results show that our method works nice for moderate camera movement with small object shape changes.

Edge detection has been widely used in computer vision and image processing. We describe a new edge detector based on the robust rank-order test which is a useful alternative to Wilcoxon test. Our method is based on detecting pixel intensity changes between two neighborhoods with a $r{\times}r$ window using an edge-height model to perform effectively on noisy images. Some experiments of our robust rank-order detector with several existing edge detectors are carried out on both synthetic images and real images with and without noise.

For edge detection methods, there are Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts and Canny edge detector, and these methods have insufficient detection characteristics in the image corrupted by the impulse noise. Therefore in this paper, in order to improve these disadvantages of the previous methods and to effectively detect the edge in the impulse noise environment, using the $5{\times}5$ mask, the noise factors within the $3{\times}3$ mask based on the central pixel is determined, and depending on its status, for noise-free it is processed as is, and if noise is found, by obtaining the estimated mask using the adjacent pixels of each factor, an algorithm that detects the edge is proposed.

Edge detection is an important step in determining the performance of lane recognition, object and pattern detection, and so on. And much research has been done until now. Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, and Canny edge detection algorithms are widely known. However, these algorithms are often judged to be a non-edge region when processing a smooth change in brightness value. Therefore, in this paper, edge detection algorithm using gray-level morphology using erosion, expansion, open and close in the mask area. is proposed.
