In this paper, the extraction method of the edge histogram directly using wavelet coefficients in the wavelet domain for JPEG2000 images is proposed. MPEG-7 Edge Histogram Descriptor(EHD) extracts edge histogram in the spacial domain. This algorithm has much multiplication and addition for the edge extraction because it needs the decoding processing. However because the proposed algorithm extracts the edge histogram in the wavelet domain, it doesn't need the decoding processing and it decreases multiplication and addition. The Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT) is a standard transform in JPEG2000. The proposed algorithm uses Le Gall 5/3 filter in JPEG2000 and odd coefficients in LH2 and HL2 sub-band. The edge direction can be decided to use rate of HL2 and LH2 odd coefficients. According to experiments, there is no difference of the efficiency between EHD and the proposed algorithm And the proposed algorithm is much better than EHD for multiplication and addition in the edge extraction of images.

In this paper, we propose an edge histogram to efficiently represent the edge distribution in the image for MPEG-7. To this end, we adopt global, semi-global, and local edge histogram bins. Also, we extract the edge information from the image in terms of image blocks rather than pixels, which reduces the extraction complexity and is also applicable to the block-based compression standards such as MPEG-1, and 2. Experimental results show that the proposed method yields better retrieval accuracy and feature extraction speed comparing to other non-homogeneous texture descriptors of MPEG-7 including the wavelet-based descriptor and local edge-based descriptor.

As multimedia data and huge-Quantity video data having been increasingly and commonly used, the key frame algorithm, as one of the methods for manipulating these kinds of data, became an important matter and has been studied for many years. But the formerly proposed key frame extraction methods take much processing time or need complex calculations due to decoding processes. In order to solve these problems which the former methods have and to enhance the key frame extraction efficiency, a novel key frame extraction method in compressed domain is proposed in this paper. In this method we get an edge histogram for each I-frame in DCT domain and then extract the key frames by means of histogram difference metric. Experimental results show that our algorithm achieves fast processing speed and high accuracy.

The thesis proposed the Text Extraction Algorithm which is a text extraction algorithm which uses the Coiflet Wavelet, YCbCr Color model and the close curve edge feature of adaptive LoG Operator in order to complement the demerit of the existing research which is weak in complexity of background, variety of light and disordered line and similarity of text and background color. This thesis is simulated with natural images which include naturally text area regardless of size, resolution and slant and so on of image. And the proposed algorithm is confirmed to an excellent by compared with an existing extraction algorithm in same image.

In this paper, we proposed a method using sub-edge information extracted through a hierarchical structure in the process of generating super resolution based on a single image. In order to improve the quality of super resolution, it is necessary to clearly distinguish the shape of each area while clearly expressing the boundary area in the image. The proposed method assists edge information of the image in deep learning based super resolution method to create an improved super resolution result while maintaining the structural shape of the boundary region, which is an important factor determining the quality in the super resolution process. In addition to the group convolution structure for performing deep learning based super resolution, a separate hierarchical edge accumulation extraction process based on high-frequency band information for sub-edge extraction is proposed, and a method of using it as an auxiliary feature is proposed. Experimental results showed about 1% performance improvement in PSNR and SSIM compared to the existing super resolution.

The extraction of 3D road network from high-resolution aerial images is still one of the current challenges in digital photogrammetry and computer vision. For many years, there are many researcher groups working for this task, but unt il now, there are no papers for doing this with TLS (Three linear scanner), which has been developed for the past several years, and has very high-resolution (about 3 cm in ground resolution). In this paper, we present a methodology of road extraction from high-resolution digital imagery taken over urban areas using this modern photogrammetry’s scanner (TLS). The key features of the approach are: (1) Because of high resolution of TLS image, our extraction method is especially designed for constructing 3D road map for next -generation digital navigation map; (2) for extracting road, we use the global context of the intensity variations associated with different features of road (i.e. zebra line and center line), prior to any local edge. So extraction can become comparatively easy, because we can use different special edge detector according different features. The results achieved with our approach show that it is possible and economic to extract 3D road data from Three Linear Scanner to construct next -generation digital navigation road map.

This paper propose a extracting method of the region for image using segmentation and edge information. First propose algorithm extract information using canny edge detector and the image was divided by watershed segmentation. And it extract the mage with edge information by merging region. Finally we compare the proposed method with levelset method. In the result proposed method not only extract the image with accurate region but also reduce operation time.

We present a method of boundary extraction of moving objects. We propose four methods for detecting moving edge pixels which can be located on the boundaries of moving objects. We select the best one after we test the above four methods to real image sequences. The portion of the boundaries of moving objects which is marked as moving edge pixels is searched along the moving edge pixels with simple heuristics. And the end points of the resultant line segments are utilized as the start points of the secon stage heuristic search. This second stage search is performed for the boundaries of moving objects which is not marked as moving edge pixels due to various reasons. We test our algorithm for two real sequences and we find that this simple algorithm has good performance.

The text to be included in the natural images has many important information in the natural image. Therefore, if we can extract the text in natural images, It can be applied to many important applications. In this paper, we propose a text region extraction method using pattern histogram of character-edge map. We extract the edges with the Canny edge detector and creates 16 kind of edge map from an extracted edges. And then we make a character-edge map of 8 kinds that have a character feature with a combination of an edge map. We extract text region using 8 kinds of character-edge map and 16 kind of edge map. Verification of text candidate region uses analysis of a character-edge map pattern histogram and structural feature of text region. The method to propose experimented with various kind of the natural images. The proposed approach extracted text region from a natural images to have been composed of a complex background, various letters, various text colors effectively.

LiDAR 장비 및 SfM 과 MVS 방법을 이용하여 생성된 point cloud 와 mesh 에는 항상 노이즈가 포함되어 있다. 이러한 노이즈를 제거하기 위해선 노이즈와 edge 를 효과적으로 구분해낼 수 있어야 한다. 노이즈를 제거하기 위해 mesh 로부터 edge 를 먼저 구분해낸 후 edge 에 해당하는 영역과 평면에 해당하는 영역에 서로 다른 필터를 사용하는 많은 연구들이 있지만 강한 노이즈가 포함된 mesh 에서는 edge를 잘 구분해내지 못하는 문제가 존재한다. 이러한 방법들은 mesh 로부터 edge 를 구분해내는 알고리즘의 성능이 노이즈를 제거하는 전체 알고리즘의 성능에 큰 영향을 주기 때문에 강한 노이즈에서도 edge 를 잘 구분해낼 수 있는 알고리즘이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 PCA 와 graph-cut 을 이용하여 강한 노이즈가 포함된 mesh 에서 edge 영역을 추출하는 알고리즘을 제안한다.
