본 논문에서는 챔퍼 디스턴스 매칭(chamfer distance matching)를 이용하여 위성 영상 상의 북한군 자주포진지(self-propellent artillery position)를 매칭하는 기법을 제안한다. 먼저 입력되는 위성 영상을 잡음환경에 강인한 가우시안-라플라시안 연산자를 이용하여 에지(edge)를 추출한다. 추출된 에지 영상의 각 픽셀에 대해 가장 가까운 에지까지의 거리를 나타내는 거리 변환(distance transform) 영상을 생성한다. 템플릿 영상은 다양한 자주포진지 영상에서 샘플링된 영상으로 에지를 추출한 후 거리 변환을 거친다. 마지막으로 템플릿 영상을 입력된 거리 변환 영상에 윈도우 슬라이딩(window sliding)하여 최소값의 가지는 위치를 구한다. 제안 기법은 잡음에 강인한 가우시안-라플라시안 연산자를 사용하여 기상조건에 의한 입력 영상의 편차에도 효율적인 매칭이 가능하다. 또한 에지 기반의 챔퍼 매칭을 이용하기 때문에 비 균일 조명 환경에서도 강인한 매칭이 이루어진다. 전산 모의 실험에서 제안 알고리즘은 입력 위성 영상 상의 자주포진지를 적은 계산량으도 신뢰있게 매칭함을 보여준다.

Recently, rapid and accurate 3D models creation is required in various applications using virtual reality and augmented reality technology. In this paper, we propose an on-site learning based shape deformation method which transforms the clothed 3D human model into the shape of an input point cloud. The proposed algorithm consists of two main parts: one is pre-learning and the other is on-site learning. Each learning consists of encoder, template transformation and decoder network. The proposed network is learned by unsupervised method, which uses the Chamfer distance between the input point cloud form and the template vertices as the loss function. By performing on-site learning on the input point clouds during the inference process, the high accuracy of the inference results can be obtained and presented through experiments.

The purpose of this study is to compare the marginal and internal fit of metal and zirconia coping which is fabricated by manual and CAD/CAM(Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing). The model is prepared with Urethane material and two abutment teeth are fabricated with a knife and chamfer margin. Silicon replica technique is used to measure the marginal fit of manually fabricated and the CAD/CAM coping. Internal fitting level is measured with a microscope and the image is captured with a CCD camera. The distance between abutment teeth and coping is measured with a callibrated image analyzer software; marginal opening (MO), marginal gap (MG), internal gap (IG) at maximum curvature area, axial gap (AG), and occlusal gap (OG). Two-way ANOVA test is applied to compare fabrication technique and to analysis of abutment pattern. In addition, one-way ANOVA and Scheffe's test is used to analyze each parameter of the test. The result shows that the fit is < $120{\mu}m$ except OG of CAD/CAM and MO of knife margin. The CAD/CAM fabricated coping showed higher fit level at chamfer margin. However, knife margin showed better fitness compared to chamfer margin at MG. AG showed the minimum dimension with a constant result (< $38{\mu}m$).

In this Paper, we Propose an automatic lung registration technique using local distance propagation for correcting the difference between two temporal images by a patient's movement in abdomen CT image obtained from the same patient to be taken at different time. The proposed method is composed of three steps. First, lung boundaries of two temporal volumes are extracted, and optimal bounding volumes including a lung are initially registered. Second, 3D distance map is generated from lung boundaries in the initially taken volume data by local distance propagation. Third, two images are registered where the distance between two surfaces is minimized by selective distance measure. In the experiment, we evaluate a speed and robustness using three patients' data by comparing chamfer-matching registration. Our proposed method shows that two volumes can be registered at optimal location rapidly. and robustly using selective distance measure on locally propagated 3D distance map.

In this paper, target extraction method in FLIR(forward-looking infrared) images based on fuzzy thresholding which used bi-modality and adjacency to determine membership value is proposed. The bi-modality represents how a pixel is classified into a part of target using distribution of pixel values in a local region, and The adjacency is a measure to represent how each pixel is far from the target region. First, membership value is calculated using above two measures, and then fuzzy thresholding is performed to extract the target. To evaluate performance of proposed target extraction method, we compare other segmentation methods using various FLIR tank image. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is a good segmentation performance.

Effective and efficient estimation of camera poses is a core method in implementing augmented reality systems or applications. The most common one is using markers, e.g., ARToolkit. However, use of markers suffers from a notorious problem that is vulnerable to occlusion. To overcome this, this paper proposes a top-down method that iteratively estimates the current camera pose by using particle swarm optimization. Through experiments, it was confirmed that the proposed method enables to implement augmented reality on severely-occluded markers.

In this paper, we represent the recognition method for human frontal upper body pose. In HCI(Human Computer Interaction) and HRI(Human Robot Interaction) when a interaction is established the human has usually frontal direction to the robot or computer and use hand gestures then we decide to focus on human frontal upper-body pose, The two main difficulties are firstly human pose is consist of many parts which cause high DOF(Degree Of Freedom) then the modeling of human pose is difficult. Secondly the matching between image features and modeling information is difficult. Then using Pictorial Model we model the human main poses which are mainly took the space of frontal upper-body poses and we recognize the main poses by making main pose database. using determined main pose we used the model parameters for particle filter which predicts the posterior distribution for pose parameters and can determine more specific pose by updating model parameters from the particle having the maximum likelihood. Therefore based on recognizing main poses and tracking the specific pose we recognize the human frontal upper body poses.

The success of porcelain laminate veneer depends on the bond strength between tooth structure and ceramic restoration and the design of tooth preparation. In particular, incisal coverage and incisal finish line are the two most important factors in long-term fracture resistance. Although the majority of clinicians are practicing incisal coverage and there are various opinions on the geo-metrical ratio between the clinical crown length of the remaining tooth structure and the length of incisal extension in porcelain laminate veneer and the optimal incisal finish lines. scientific evidence still loaves much to be desired. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of the amounts of incisal coverage and the types of incisal finish line on the stress distribution in maxillary anterior porcelain laminate veneers under two different loading conditions. Three-dimensional finite element models of a maxillary anterior porcelain veneer with differ-ent amounts of incisal coverage ; 0, 1, 2, and 3mm and different incisal finish lines feathered edge, incisal bevel, reverse bevel and lingual chamfer with various amounts of lingual extension were developed. 300N force was applied at the point 0.5mm cervical of the linguoincisal edge in two loading conditions ; A) 125 degrees, B) 132 degrees. Tensile and compressive stress in ceramic and shear stress in the resin cement layer were analyzed using three-dimensional finite element method. The results were as follows : 1. The types of incisal finish line had more influence on the stress distribution in porcelain laminate veneer than the amounts of incisal coverage. 2. In case of no incisal coverage, incisal beveled laminate exhibited more evenly distributed tensile stress than feathered edged laminate. And in case of incisal coverage, reverse beveled laminate and lingual chamfered laminate with 1mm lingual extension exhibited more evenly distributed tensile stress than lingual chamfered laminates with 2mm and 3mm lingual extension. 3. As long as the lingual chamfer goes, less tensile stress was found at the incisal edge, while much more tensile stress was found at the lingual margin area in proportion to the length of lingual extension. 4. Under 125 degree load, tensile stress in porcelain laminate veneer had increased compared with that under 132 degree load and the difference exhibited by the change of the amount of tooth support was larger. 5. The types of incisal finish line and the distance from the incisal finish line to the loading point had more influence on the shear stress distribution in the resin cement layer than the amounts of incisal coverage. In contrast loading condition had little influence.

Recently, optical coherence tomography (OCT) has demonstrated considerable promise for the noninvasive assessment of biological tissues. However, OCT images difficult to analyze due to speckle noise. In this paper, we tested various image processing techniques for speckle removal of human and rabbit cartilage OCT images. Also, we distinguished the images which get with methods of image segmentation for OCT images, and found the most suitable method for segmenting an image. And, we selected image segmentation suitable for OCT before image reconstruction. OCT was a weak point to system design and image processing. It was a limit owing to measure small a distance and depth size. So, good edge matching algorithms are important for image reconstruction. This paper presents such an algorithm, the chamfer matching algorithm. It is made of background for 3D image reconstruction. The purpose of this paper is to describe good image processing techniques for speckle removal, image segmentation, and the 3D reconstruction of cartilage OCT images.
