In this paper, a gradient magnitude hardware architecture based on hardware folding design method is proposed for low power image feature extraction. For the hardware complexity reduction, the projection vector chracteristic of gradient magnitude is applied. The proposed hardware architecture can be implemented with the small degradation of the gradient magnitude data quality. The FPGA implementation result shows the 41% of logic elements and 62% embedded multiplier savings compared with previous work using Altera Cyclone VI (EP4CE115F29C7N) FPGA and Quartus II v16.0 environment.

Because the embedded watermark of luminance component guarantees the extraction of ownership information when the color image is converted to gray scale image, the information of ownership right as to the luminance component is embedded in the luminance-chrominance color space such as YCbCr. Therefore, this paper proposes watermark embedding, extraction and authentication algorithm of color image. which considers the device and performance of multimedia contents service by focusing on the robustness and invisibility of watermark. The color image is converted from RGB color space to YCbCr color space, and then the properties of each component of Y(Luminance), Cb(Color Differences) and Cr(Color Differences) are considered in order to embed, extract and certify multi-level watermark in the frequency domain based on the wavelet. As a result, it can guaranteed the robustness for the JPEG compression and invisibility of watermark for multi-level.

In this paper, we propose face recognition method using embedded data in super states segmentalized that is specification region exist to face region, hair, forehead, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and chin. Proposed method defines super states that is specification area in normalized size (92×112), and embedded data that is extract internal factor in super states segmentalized achieve face recognition by PCA algorithm. Proposed method can receive specification data that is less in proposed image's size (92×112) because do orignal image to learn embedded data not to do all loaming. And Showed face recognition rate in image of 92×112 size averagely 99.05%, step 1 99.05%, step 2 98.93%, step 3 98.54%, step 4 97.85%. Therefore, method that is proposed through an experiment showed that the processing speed improves as well as reduce existing face image's information.

In this paper, a direct method is developed to extact RF equivalent circuit of a packaged BJT without optimization. First, parasitic components of plastic package are removed from measured S-parameters using open and short package patterns. Using package do-embedded S-parameters, a direct and simple method is proposed to extract bonding wire inductance and chip pad capacitance between package lead and chip pad. The small-signal model parameters of internal BJT are next determined by Z and Y-parameter formula derived from RF equivalent circuit. The modeled S-parameters of packaged BJT agree well with measured ones, verifying the accuracy of this new extraction method.

This paper presents an System-on-Chip(SoC) implementation of fingerprint feature extraction system. Typical fingerprint feature extraction systems employ binarization and thinning processes which cause many extraction errors for low qualify fingerprint images and degrade the accuracy of the entire fingerprint recognition system. To solve these problems, an algorithm directly following ridgelines without the binarization and thinning process has been proposed. However, the computational requirement of the algorithm makes it hard to implement it on SoCs by using software only. This paper presents an implementation of the ridge-following algorithm onto SoCs. The algorithm has been modified to increase the efficiency of hardwares. Each function block of the algorithm has been implemented in hardware or in software by considering its computational complexity, cost and utilization of the hardware, and efficiency of the entire system. The fingerprint feature extraction system has been developed as an IP for SoCs, hence it can be used on many kinds of SoCs for smart cards.

We analyzed about digital watermarking embedded transmission of still image in wireless multimedia communication environment. Also, we proposed improved watermark techniques. It effects that get in original image than method to use conventional image is less and shows robust watermark restoration ability from outside attack. Performance analysis achieved about still image and restoration of watermark information using OFDM/QPSK still image transmission system in wireless channel environment. Analysis result, VI watermark performance that influence in original image is very small. And it could know that show high restoration performance. Also, It showed superior copyright information extraction performance than image watermark in wireless channel environment of same transmission error condition.

In this paper, we propose a new model for the conditional generation of music, considering key and rhythm, fundamental elements of music. MIDI sheet music is converted into a WAV format, which is then transformed into a Mel Spectrogram using the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT). Using this information, key and rhythm details are classified by passing through two Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), and this information is again fed into the Music Transformer. The key and rhythm details are combined by differentially multiplying the weights and the embedding vectors of the MIDI events. Several experiments are conducted, including a process for determining the optimal weights. This research represents a new effort to integrate essential elements into music generation and explains the detailed structure and operating principles of the model, verifying its effects and potentials through experiments. In this study, the accuracy for rhythm classification reached 94.7%, the accuracy for key classification reached 92.1%, and the Negative Likelihood based on the weights of the embedding vector resulted in 3.01.

Multi-resolution Signal Decomposition (MSD) Technique of Wavelet Transform has interesting properties of capturing the embedded horizontal, vertical and diagonal variations within an image in a separable form. This feature was exploited to identify individual partial discharge sources present in multi-source PD pattern, usually encountered during practical PD measurement. Employing the Daubechies wavelet, feature were extracted from the third level decomposed and reconstructed horizontal and vertical component images. These features were found to contain the necessary discriminating information corresponding to the individual PD sources and multi-PD soruces.

As the need of automatized system has been increased recently together with the development of industrial and military technologies, the adaptive real-time target detection technologies that can be embedded on vehicles, planes, ships, robots and so on, are hgihly demanded. Accordingly, this paper proposes a novel approach to detect and segment the moving targets using the binary phase extraction joint transform correlator (BPEJTC), the advanced image subtraction filter and convex hull processing. The BPEJTC which was used as a target detection unit mainly for target tracking compensating the camera movement. The target region has been detected by processing the successful three frames using the advanced image subtraction filter, and has become more accurate by applying the developed convex hull filter. As shown by some experimental results, it is expected that the proposed approaches for compensation of the camera movement and segmentationof of target region, can be used for th emissile guiddance, aero surveillance, automatic inspectin system as well as the target detection unit of automatic target recognition system that request adaptive real-time processing.

We propose video management system based on MPEG-7 for mobile device(MVMS). Most of existing MPEG-7 applications manage MPEG-7 document based on file system in the desktop environment. To contrast them, because the MVMS manages only necessary information using embedded database system for MPEG-7 documents in mobile devices, it can use efficiently lack of the resource in mobile device environment. MVMS supports key image extraction and MPEG-7 document edition function. Moreover, this is possible search and management of multi document because of MVMS manage MPEG-7 data through embedded DB.
