This article reviews the development of flat-panel detectors for digital radiography based on amorphous materials, Important design parameters and developments are described for the two main components of flat-panel detectors: the X-ray converter and the readout pixel array. This article also introduces the advanced development concepts of new detectors. In addition, the cascaded linear systems method is reviewed because it is a very powerful tool for improving the design and assessment of X-ray imaging detector systems.

Diffraction gratings were designed to generate multiple beams for the real-time optical interconnection in free-space using a liquid crsytal television. Multi-level phase gratings consisted of stepped phase value, 0 to 2$\pi$, and generate a 5$\times$5 spot array, and V-shaped spot patterns which have a maximum diffraction efficiency of 78.84%. Simulated annealing technique was used to determine phase states of each pixel having uniform intensity and high diffraction efficiency. Through the optical interconnection experiments, we compared the diffraction characteristics of beam paterns obtained by binary-level, four-level, and eight-level phase gratings.

In this paper we introduce an improved method to measure saliency values of pixels from an image. The proposed saliency measure is formulated using local features of color and a statistical framework. In the preprocessing step, rough salient pixels are determined as the local contrast of an image region with respect to its neighborhood at various scales. Then, the saliency value of each pixel is calculated by Bayes' rule using rough salient pixels. The experiments show that our approach outperforms the current Bayes' rule based method.

This study is represented a method to give connect to optical cable from accident site and reviewed the method to transmission a moving image to control centre by real time, following the study of image transmission method in copper cable section where is a main line of railroad communication. Concept of network is studied to use cable and equipment effectively, and it's also reviewed technology of digital image transmission system and image evaluation methods, in spite of the pixel of camera and monitor resolution determine quality of image when moving image transferring by point to point. In addition, this study is reviewed checks and considerations of image transmission equipment (codec) with various transmission methods in room test, and then examined and analyzed wire/wireless combined transmission methods at wayside.

With the expansion of Internet, a variety of image databases are widely used and it is needed to select the part of an image what he wants. In contents-based image retrieval system, Zernikie moment and ART Descriptors are used fur shape descriptors in MPEC-7. This paper presents a fast computation method to determine the radius of a bounding circle that encloses an object in a binary image. With conventional methods, the whole area of the image should be scanned first and the distance from every pixel to the center point be computed. The proposed 4-directional scan method and fast circle-drawing algorithm is utilized to minimize the scanning area and reduce the number of operations fur computing the distance. Experimental results show that proposed method saves the computation time to determine the radius of a bounding circle efficiently.

Image processing steps are consist of image acquisition, preprocessing, region, segmentation and recognition. But image corrupted commonly by noise reduction methods, many filters were proposed like mean filter, median filter, weighted median filter, Cheikh filter, and Kyu-cheol lee filter as spatial noise reduction filtering. We propose a new edge detection algorithm so that we find out edge existence and nonexistence. In non-edge area, we selectively apply weighted median filter based upon using information of difference value between weighted median filter's value and center pixel's value. As a result, we finally prove a better performance of noise reduction by applying adaptive weighted median filter and improvement of processing time through using simple algorithm.

In this work a new method for on-line scene segmentation is developed. In remote sensing a scene is represented by the pixel-oriented features. It is possible to reduce data redundancy by an unsupervised segment-feature extraction process, where the segment-features, rather than the pixelfeatures, are used for multispectral scene representation. The algorithm partitions the observation space into exhaustive set of disjoint segments. Then, pixels belonging to each segment are characterized by segment features. Illustrative examples are presented, and the performance of features is investigated. Results show an average compression more than 25, the classification performance is improved for all classes, and the CPU time required for classification is reduced by the same factor.

For forest fire monitoring in relatively cool area like Siberia, design of Decision Support System (DSS) is proposed. The DSS is consisted of three different algorithms to detect potential fires from NOAA AVHRR image. The algorithm developed by CCRS (Canada Center for Remote Sensing) uses fixed thresholds for multi-channel information like one by ESA (European Space Agency). The algorithm of IGBP (International Geosphere Biosphere Program) involves contextual information in deriving fire pixels. CCRS and IGBP algorithms are rather liberal compared to more conservative ESA algorithm. Fire pixel information from the three algorithms is presented to the user. The user considers all these information in making decision about the location fire takes place.

The aim of this paper is to design a 3D laser radar prototype based on laser triangulation. The mathematical model of distance sensitivity is deduced; a pixel-distance conversion formula is discussed and used to complete 3D scanning. The center position extraction algorithm of the spot is proposed, and the error of the linear laser, camera distortion and installation are corrected by using the proposed weighted average algorithm. Finally, the three-dimensional analytic computational algorithm is given to transform the measured distance into point cloud data. The experimental results show that this 3D laser radar can accomplish the 3D object scanning and the environment 3D reconstruction task. In addition, the experiment result proves that the product of the camera focal length and the baseline length is the key factor to influence measurement accuracy.

In this paper, the purpose is evaluation of the effect of using fractal feature in machine learning based pancreatic tumor classification. We used the data that Pancreas CT series 469 case including 1995 slice of benign and 1772 slice of malignant. Feature selection is implemented from 109 feature to 7 feature by Lasso regularization. In Fractal feature, fractal dimension is obtained by box-counting method, and hurst coefficient is calculated range data of pixel value in ROI. As a result, there were significant differences in both benign and malignancies tumor. Additionally, we compared the classification performance between model without fractal feature and model with fractal feature by using support vector machine. The train model with fractal feature showed statistically significant performance in comparison with train model without fractal feature.
