The main problem with existing edge detection techniques is that they have many limitations in detecting edges for complex and diverse images that exist in the real world. This is because only edges of a defined shape are discovered based on an accurate definition of the edge. One of the methods to solve this problem is the cost minimization method. In the cost minimization method, cost elements and cost functions are defined and used. The cost function calculates the cost for the candidate edge model generated according to the candidate edge generation strategy, and if the cost is found to be satisfactory, the candidate edge model becomes the edge for the image. In this study, we proposed an enhanced candidate edge generation strategy to discover edges for more diverse types of images in order to improve the shortcoming of the cost minimization method, which is that it only discovers edges of a defined type. As a result, improved edge detection results were confirmed.

GAN(Generative Adversarial Network, 생성적 적대 신경망)은 이미지 생성모델로서 생성기 네트워크와 판별기 네트워크로 구성되며 실제 같은 이미지를 생성한다. GAN에 의해 생성된 이미지는 실제 이미지와 유사해야 하므로 생성된 이미지와 실제 이미지의 손실 오차를 최소화하는 손실함수(loss function)를 사용한다. 그러나 GAN의 손실함수는 이미지를 생성하는 학습을 불안정하게 만들어 이미지의 품질을 떨어뜨린다는 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 GAN 관련 연구를 분석하고 에지 검출(edge detection)을 이용한 eGAN(edge GAN)을 제안한다. 실험 결과 eGAN 모델이 기존의 GAN 모델보다 성능이 개선되었다.

The error diffusion algorithm is good for reproducing continuous images to binary images. However the reproduction of edge characteristics is weak in power spectrum an analysis of display error. In this paper an edge enhanced error diffusion method is proposed to improve the edge characteristic enhancement. Spatial gradient information in original image is adapted for edge enhance in threshold modulation of error diffusion. First the horizontal and vertical second order differential values are obtained from the gradient of peripheral pixels(3x3) in original image. second weighting function is composed by function including absolute value and sign of second order differential values. The proposed method presents a good visual results which edge characteristics is enhanced. The performance of the proposed method is compared with that of the conventional edge enhanced error diffusion by measuring the edge correlation and the local average accordance over a range of viewing distances and the RAPSD of display error.

The Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) is commonly used to characterize the spatial quality of imaging systems. This work is the attempt to measure the MTF at Nyquist frequency of the satellite imaging system what has 1m spatial resolution for KOMPSAT-2 image using the edge function. Artificial tarp targets are used in this study. A type of this tarp edge consists of two adjacent uniform bright and dark sides commonly used to test the performance of an optical system in edge function. The results from this work demonstrate the potential applicability of this method to estimate the response characteristics for KOMPSAT-2 that is scheduled to be launched.

Most of the edge detection methods available in literature are gradient based, which further apply thresholding, to find the final edge map in an image. In this paper, we propose a novel method that is based on fuzzy logic for edge detection in gray images without using the gradient and thresholding. Fuzzy logic is a mathematical logic that attempts to solve problems by assigning values to an imprecise spectrum of data in order to arrive at the most accurate conclusion possible. Here, the fuzzy logic is used to conclude whether a pixel is an edge pixel or not. The proposed technique begins by fuzzifying the gray values of a pixel into two fuzzy variables, namely the black and the white. Fuzzy rules are defined to find the edge pixels in the fuzzified image. The resultant edge map may contain some extraneous edges, which are further removed from the edge map by separately examining the intermediate intensity range pixels. Finally, the edge map is improved by finding some left out edge pixels by defining a new membership function for the pixels that have their entire 8-neighbourhood pixels classified as white. We have compared our proposed method with some of the existing standard edge detector operators that are available in the literature on image processing. The quantitative analysis of the proposed method is given in terms of entropy value.

Based on a fuzzy system representation of gray scale images, we derive an edge detection algorithm whose convolution kernel is different from the known kernels such as those of Roberts', Prewitt's or Sobel's gradient. Our fuzzy system representation is an exact representation of the bicubic spline function which represents the gray scale image approximately. Hence the fuzzy system is a continuous function and it provides a natural way to define the gradient and the Laplacian operator. We show that the gradient at grid points can be evaluated by taking the convolution of the image with a 3 3 kernel. We also show that our gradient coupled with the approximate value of the continuous function generates an edge detection method which creates edge images clearer than those by other methods. A few examples of applying our methods are included.

As the IoT is applied to home and industrial networks, data generated by the IoT is being processed at the cloud edge. Intrusion detection function is very important because it can be operated by invading IoT devices through the cloud edge. Data delivered to the edge network in the cloud environment is traffic at the application layer. In order to determine the intrusion of the packet transmitted to the IoT, the intrusion should be detected at the application layer. This paper proposes the intrusion detection function at the application layer excluding normal traffic from IoT intrusion detection function. As the proposed method, we obtained the intrusion detection result by decision tree method and explained the detection result for each feature.

영상에서 에지는 물체의 크기, 방향, 위치 등의 정보를 포함한다. 이러한 에지를 검출하기 위한 기존의 에지 검출 방법은 Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, Laplacian 등을 이용한 방법이다. 이러한 기존의 방법은 에지 검출하기 위하여 고정된 가중치 마스크를 이용하며 에지 검출 특성이 다소 미흡하다. 따라서 이와 같은 기존의 방법의 문제점을 보완하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 국부 마스크의 화소 분포에 따라 그레이 레벨 변환 함수를 적용하여 에지를 검출하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

This study discusses the high-order diffusion method in the wavelet domain. It aims to improve the edge protection capability of the high-order diffusion method using wavelet coefficients that can reflect image information. During the first step of the proposed diffusion method, the wavelet packet decomposition is a more refined decomposition method that can extract the texture and structure information of the image at different resolution levels. The high-frequency wavelet coefficients are then used to construct the edge detection function. Subsequently, because accurate wavelet coefficients can more accurately reflect the edges and details of the image information, by introducing the idea of state weight, a scheme for recovering wavelet coefficients is proposed. Finally, the edge detection function is constructed by the module of the wavelet coefficients to guide high-order diffusion, the denoised image is obtained. The experimental results showed that the method presented in this study improves the denoising ability of the high-order diffusion model, and the edge protection index (SSIM) outperforms the main methods, including the block matching and 3D collaborative filtering (BM3D) and the deep learning-based image processing methods. For images with rich textural details, the present method improves the clarity of the obtained images and the completeness of the edges, demonstrating its advantages in denoising and edge protection.

기존의 윤곽선 추출 방법은 중첩된 두꺼운 선으로 추출되어 물체의 실제 경계선을정확하게 표시하지를 못하거나 윤곽선에 끊어짐이 많아 연결성이 떨어지는 문제점을 지니고있었다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 윤곽선 추출에 유전자 알고리즘을 적용하였으며 에너지 함수는 픽셀의 윤곽선 만족도를 수치로 산정해 주는 식으로 함수로 화상구조 형에 대한 평가 에너지와 이웃 윤곽선과의 연속성에 대한 평가 에너지, 윤곽선이 정확한 위치에 1 픽셀로 나타냈는지에 대한 평가함수로 구성하였다. 제안된 방법은 기존의 방법에 비해 잡음제거에 우수하였고 또한 연결성이 강하고 최적의 위치에 놓인 픽셀을 찾음으로서 보다 선명하고 정확한 윤곽선 추출을 가능케 하였다.
