전송선로와 저장공간의 제약을 극복할 수 있는 영상압축기술이 발달함에 따라 인터넷과 멀티미디어 통신이 비약적으로 발전할 수 있었으며, 앞으로도 보다 높은 효율의 압축기술이 요구되고 있다. 현재 영상압축표준은 대부분 블록 DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform)를 기반으로 하고 있지만, 압축 이전에 영상을 블록으로 나누어 처리하게 되므로 블록효과가 발생하게 된다 본 논문에서는 이러한 블록효과를 제거하기 위해 확산을 이용한 방법을 제시한다. 확산의 정도를 자유로이 조절할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 이방성 확산 방정식을 제안하여 이를 블록효과를 제거하는데 적용한다. 이는 평탄한 영역에서의 경계에 대해서는 등방성 확산으로, 그렇지 않은 영역에 대해서는 경계에 수직인 방향으로만 확산이 일어나는 이방성 확산으로 자유로이 조절하여 적용할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 이를 이용하여 원 영상정보의 손실을 최소화하기 위해 영역에 따라 확산속도와 방향을 적응적으로 조절할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하고 기존의 블록효과 제거 알고리즘과 비교 실험을 통하여 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 평가한다.

In this paper, a server and client simulator for the web-based multi-view 3D image communication system is implemented by using the IEEE 1394 digital cameras, Intel Xeon server computer and Microsoft's DirectShow programming library. In the proposed system, two-view image is initially captured by using the IEEE 1394 stereo camera and then, this data is compressed through extraction of its disparity information in the Intel Xeon server computer and transmitted to the client system, in which multi-view images are generated through the intermediate views reconstruction method and finally display on the 3D display monitor. Through some experiments it is found that the proposed system can display 8-view image having a grey level of 8 bits with a frame rate of 15 fps.

An iterative deblocking algorithm for DCT-compressed images using two-dimensional FIR filters adapted for local directionality of each block, is proposed. First, we introduce a set of simple lowpass filters, which are adapted for edges of different angles. In conventional deblocking methods based on lowpass-filtering and convex projections, a single filter is applied to a whole image. In the proposed method, on the other hand, a suitable filter is chosen out of the directional filters designed previously in every subimage (typically $8{\times}8$ block). Experimental results indicate that adaptive filtering improves PSNR at each iteration.

본 논문은 의료영상 워터마킹에 웨이블릿 패킷을 적용한 연구이다. 웨이블릿 패킷기법을 적용하여 저주파 대역에서 고주파 대역까지 손실을 최소화하므로 의료영상의 분해능을 향상시킨다. 비교분석 실험결과 PSNR은 0.1dB 이상 향상되었고 내구성 평가에서 압축률 60%에서 PSNR이 28dB 이상 얻었다. 결과적으로 의료영상의 화질이 향상되었으며 고의적인 영상왜곡 및 변형 등의 외부 공격에 대해 내구성을 유지하는 결과를 얻었다.

In this paper, we propose an algorithms for the mounted PCB classification system using wavelet transform and ART2 neural network. The feature informations of a mounted PCB can be extracted from the coefficient matrix of wavelet transform adapted subband concept. As the preprocessing process, only the PCB area in the input image is extracted by histogram method and the feature vectors are composed of using wavelet transform method. These feature vectors are used as the input vector of ART2 neural network. In the experiment using 55 mounted PCB images, the proposed algorithm shows 100% classification rate at the vigilance parameter $\rho$=0.99. The proposed algorithm has some advantages of the feature extraction in the compressed domain and the simplification of processing steps.

In this paper, we propose the method of extracting the caption regions from news video and the method of recognizing the captions that can be used mainly for content-based indexing and retrieving the MPEG-2 compressed news for NOD(News On Demand). The proposed method can reduce the searching time on detecting caption frames with minimum MPEG-2 decoding, and effectively eliminate the noise in caption regions by deliberately devised preprocessing. Because the kind of fonts that are used for captions is not various in the news video, an enhanced template matching method is used for recognizing characters. We could obtain good recognition result in the experiment of sports news video by the proposed methods.

현재 설러 병원에서 PACS 시스템을 도입해 유용하게 사용하고 있다. 병원 진료에서 방사선 영상 정보는 중요한 위치를 차지한다. 방사선 영상은 관전압(KVP)과 관전류(mAs)로 방사선량을 조절한 후 인체에 조사하여 얻게 되는데, KVP와 mAs, 인체의 두께에 따라 영상의 질이 변하게 된다. 이와 같이 장비에서 촬영된 영상은 판독을 거처 진료에 이용되고 일정한 시간이 지나면 압축하여 보관하게 되는데, 압축율을 높게 적용할수록 저장장치에 대한 경제적인 효과는 크다. 이에 저자는 1) CR, DR 촬영 조건별 흉부 영상을 얻어 JPEG 2000 압축방식을 적용해 촬영조건이 압축영상에 미치는 영향을 평가하였고, 2) MOS(Mean opinion score) 평가를 통해 영상판독에 영향을 주지 않는 유효 압축율을 제시하였다.

In this paper, we propose the system that can monitor and control the camera in the remote place using the PDA. The server PC attached to the PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) acquires the current status (On/Off) of the devices through the RS-232 serial communications. Also, the moving image frames captured from the wireless camera is compressed in the JPEG format and is stored in the server. The PDA, which is connected to the server through wireless internet, receives the data about the status of the devices and controls the devices according to the circumstances of them. Also, it can receive the images from the server simultaneously. So, we can monitor and control the specified area in the remote place using the PDA through the wireless communication.

The Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) is a standara still-image compression technique, established by the International for Standardization (ISO) and International Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITUT). The standard is intended to be utilized in the various kinds of color still imaging systems as a standard color image coding format. Because JPEG is a lossy compression, the decompressed image pixel values are nto the same as values before compression. Image of JPEG compression is often made to JPEG recompression at saving to apply JPEG compression of color image. In general, JPEG is a lossy compression and compression image is predicted to be varied image quality according to recompressed Q-factor. Various distortions of JPEG compression and JPEG recompression has been reported in previous paper. In this paper, we compress four difference color samples (photo image, gradient image, vector drawing image, text image) according to various Q-factor, and then compressed images are recompressed according to various Q-factor once again. As the results, we inspect variation of quality and file size of recompressed color image, and ensure the optimum recompression factor.

In this paper, we propose an error concealment technique using directional interpolation in block-based image compression. In the proposed method the edge direction is determined by finding the maximum correlation coefficients of boundary pixels of blocks neighboring the errored block in spatial domain. Then the errored block is interpolated linearly or bilinearly along the determined edge direction. The proposed method can conceal the block error, the macro block error, and the slice error adaptively. Also, the parameters for the directional interpolation are represented by closed forms. When applied to compressed images, the proposed method shows superior subjective and objective quality to conventional error concealment methods.
