This paper describes system to extract ISO codes in container image. A container ISO code recognition system for real-time processing is made of 5 core parts which are container ISO code detection and image acquisition, ISO code region extraction, individual character extraction, character recognition and database. Among them, the accuracy of ISO code extraction can affect significantly the accuracy of system recognition rate, and also the more exact extraction of ISO code is required in various weather and environment conditions. The proposed system produces binary of the ISO code's template lesions using an adaptive thresholding, extracts candidate regions containing distribution of ISO code, and recognizes ISO codes as detecting a final region through the verifications by using character distribution characteristics of ISO code among the extracted candidates. Experimental results reveal that ISO codes can be efficiently extracted by the proposed method.

Recently, the size and location of the acquired container image while the container is loading and unloading in Harbors is not fixed. And it is difficult to get a good image for recognition because of the variation of external environment as those the size of container and where the yard-tractor stop is. In this paper, we estimate where the container ISO-code set is using Top-hat transform from realtime images and get an image to recognize container ISO-code using PAN/TILT/ZOOM camera. We extract the container ISO-code using Top-hat transform and Histogram projection. After binarization, we extract each character from complex background using labeling. We use BP(Backpropagation Network) to recognize extracted characters.

This paper presents a strength safety evaluation of composite pressure container for hydrogen fuel tanks with a storage capacity of 104 liter and 70MPa pressure. The carbon fiber composite container is manufactured by an aluminum liner of Al6061-T6 and composite multi-layers of hoop winding layer in circumferential direction, $12^{\circ}C$ inclined winding layer and $70^{\circ}C$winding layer in helical direction respectively. The FEM results on the strength safety of composite fuel tanks were evaluated with a criterion of design safety of US DOT-CFFC and KS B ISO 11119-2 codes. The FEM computed results indicate that the proposed design model of 104 liter composite container is safe based on two strength safety codes. But, the computed results of carbon fiber fuel tanks based on US DOT-CFFC code is safer compared with that of KS B ISO 11119-2. Thus the hydrogen gas pressure container of 70MPa may be evaluated and designed by US DOT-CFFC code for more strength safety.

본 논문은 인식된 컨테이너 식별자 문자열과 컨테이너 작업리스트를 비교하여 작업리스트와 인식된 컨테이너 식별자 문자열을 매칭하는 효율적인 방법을 소개하고자 한다. Dynamic Time Warping 기법을 이용하여 오인식되거나 인식이 되지 않은 문자에 대하여 오독률을 최소화할 수 있는 효율적인 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 문자열 비교방식에 비하여 제안하는 방법을 사용하였을 경우 더 나은 성능을 보였다.

In This paper, we present a texture clustering method to extract Container ISO code in complex images. First, we make texture informations using top-hat morphology from realtime images, and we cluster those informations using horizontal and vertical clustering method to extract text area. After extensive experiment, our method demonstrated superior performance against well-known techniques as texture and histogram method.
