This study was to develop a fruit sorting system using statistical image processing. Histogram was used to compare fruit colors to standard fruit color and edge detector using Wilcoxon test was used to calculate an accurate geometrical characteristics of fruit including perimeter, area, major axis and minor axis length and roundness. The experimental result obtained from using our system for sorting apples was presented.

This study presents two reversible data hiding schemes based on the coefficient shifting (CS) algorithm. The first scheme uses the CS algorithm with a mean predictor in the spatial domain to provide a large payload while minimizing distortion. To guard against manipulations, the second scheme uses a robust version of the CS algorithm with feature embedding implemented in the integer wavelet transform domain. Simulations demonstrate that both the payload and peak signal-to-noise ratio generated by the CS algorithm with a mean predictor are better than those generated by existing techniques. In addition, the marked images generated by the variant of the CS algorithm are robust to various manipulations created by JPEG2000 compression, JPEG compression, noise additions, (edge) sharpening, low-pass filtering, bit truncation, brightness, contrast, (color) quantization, winding, zigzag and poster edge distortion, and inversion.

The scanning type modulation transfer function (MTF) measurement system of linear charge coupled device (CCD) imagers is fabricated and the MTF of a linear CCD imager is tested. Measured MTF values are very sensitive to small angle knife-edge skew within 1 degree and show different results in several wavelengths. The MTF of the linear CCD imager is measured in different color temperatures of a tungsten filament lamp and the MTF uniformity of ti,t eel) pixels is tested.tested.

Given a directed graph, we can determine how the user's preference moves from one product item to another. In this graph called "preference transition network", each node represents the product item while its edge pointing to the other nodes represents the transition of user's preference. However, with the large number of items make the network become more complex, unclear and difficult to be interpreted. In order to address this problem, this paper proposes a visualization technique in preference transition analysis based on recency and frequency. By adapting these two elements, the semantic meaning of each item and its transition can be clearly identified by its different types of node size, color and edge style. The experiment in a sales data has shown the results of the proposed approach.

This paper presents method to speed up processing time in construction of panoramic images. The method based on invariant feature uses image down-scaling and image edge information. Reducing image size and applying feature descriptor to image portions superimposed with edge causes to reduce the number of features and to improve processing speed. In the experiments, it was shown that the proposed method was 3.26$\sim$13.87% shorter in processing time than the exiting method fer 24-bit color images of 640$\times$480 size.

본 논문에서는 질감 정보를 나타낼 수 있는 Block-based 에지 히스토그램과 색상 정보를 표현할 수 있는 DCT 를 이용한 칼라 영상 검색 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 최소의 특징량으로 최대의 검색효율을 얻기 위해 YCbCr 칼라 모델상에서 Y 영상으로부터는 전체적인 영상에 대한 히스토그램과 에지 히스토그램을 특징량으로 추출하고 Cb, Cr 영상으로부터는 DCT 계수를 특징량으로 추출하여 칼라 영상을 검색한다. 이는 칼라와 질감을 동시에 고려하면서 특징량의 크기가 적어 웹, 대용량 검색 시스템 및 동영상 검색에 적합하다. 성능 평가는 MPEG-7 의 칼라 특징자들의 성능평가를 위해 사용된 S1 및 S3 그룹 영상을 대상으로 실험하였으며 제안한 복합 특징량은 칼라 영상 검색에서 우수한 성능을 나타냄을 실험으로 확인 하였다.

We propose a method to identify vehicle type by the formula of distance between feature points of vehicle and proportional rate of size. Car images are converted from the basic RGB model to the gray color model. Perform Canny Edge Direction to remove the background image of the car. The desired feature points are obtained through contour extraction.

In this paper, a multi-scale local difference directional number (MLDDN) pattern is proposed for pig identification. Firstly, the color images of individual pig are converted into grey images by the most significant bits (MSB) quantization, which makes the grey values have better discrimination. Then, Gabor amplitude and phase responses on different scales are obtained by convoluting the grey images with Gabor masks. Next, by calculating the main difference of local edge directions instead of traditionally edge information, the directional numbers of Gabor amplitude and phase responses are encoded. Finally, the block histograms of the encoded images are concatenated on each scale, and the maximum pooling is adopted on different scales to avoid the high feature dimension. Experimental results on two pigsties show that MLDDN impressively outperforms the other widely used local descriptors.

In this paper, we present an upsampling technique for depth map image using selective bilateral weights and a color weight using laplacian function. These techniques prevent color texture copy problem, which problem appears in existing upsamplers uses bilateral weight. First, we construct a high-resolution image using the bicubic interpolation technique. Next, we detect a color texture region using pixel value differences of depth and color image. If an interpolated pixel belongs to the color texture edge region, we calculate weighting values of spatial and depth in $3{\times}3$ neighboring pixels and compute the cost value to determine the boundary pixel value. Otherwise we use color weight instead of depth weight. Finally, the pixel value having minimum cost is determined as the pixel value of the high-resolution depth image. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves good performance in terns of PSNR comparison and subjective visual quality.

This paper proposes a method of content-based image retrieval using region feature vector in order to overcome disadvantages of existing color histogram methods. The color histogram methods have a weak point that reduces accuracy because of quantization error, and more. In order to solve this, we convert color information to HSV space and quantize hue factor being purecolor information and calculate histogram and then use thus for retrieval feature that is robust in brightness, movement, and rotation. Also we solve an insufficient part that is the most serious problem in color histogram methods by dividing an image into sixteen regions and then comparing each region. We improve accuracy by edge and DC of DCT transformation. As a result of experimenting with 1,000 color images, the proposed method has showed better precision than the existing methods.
