Over the past several years, many studies have been carried out in the field of 3D data inspection systems. Several attempts have been made to improve the quality of manufactured parts. The introduction of laser sensors for inspection has made it possible to acquire data at a remarkably high speed. In this paper, a robust inspection technique for detecting defects in 3D pressed parts using laser-scanned data is proposed. Point cloud data are segmented for the extraction of features. These segmented features are used for shape matching during the localization process. An iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm is used for the localization of the scanned model and CAD model. To achieve a higher accuracy rate, the ICP algorithm is modified and then used for matching. To enhance the speed of the matching process, aKd-tree algorithm is used. Then, the deviation of the scanned points from the CAD model is computed.

Image co-registration is the process of overlaying two images of the same scene. One of which is a reference image, while the other (sensed image) is geometrically transformed to the one. Numerous methods were developed for the automated image co-registration and it is known as a time-consuming and/or computation-intensive procedure. In order to improve efficiency and effectiveness of the co-registration of satellite imagery, this paper proposes a pre-qualified area matching, which is composed of feature extraction with Laplacian filter and area matching algorithm using correlation coefficient. Moreover, to improve the accuracy of co-registration, the outliers in the initial matching point should be removed. For this, two outlier detection techniques of studentized residual and modified RANSAC algorithm are used in this study. Three pairs of Landsat images were used for performance test, and the results were compared and evaluated in terms of robustness and efficiency.

Recently, surveillance systems are widely used, and one of the key technologies in this surveillance system is to recognize and track objects. In order to track a moving object robustly and efficiently in a complex environment, it is necessary to extract the feature points in the interesting object and to track the object using the feature points. In this paper, we propose a method to track interesting objects in real time by eliminating unnecessary information from objects, generating feature point descriptors using only key feature points, and reducing computational complexity for object recognition. Experimental results show that the proposed method is faster and more robust than conventional methods, and can accurately track objects in various environments.

본 논문에서는 저 품질의 한글 문서 영상에서 OCR 기반 검색 시스템의 대안으로 키워드 검출 시스템(Keyword Spotting)을 제안하고 OCR 기반 문서 검색 시스템과 비교한다. 제안 시스템은 문자 분할, 키워드 특징 추출 그리고 단어 매칭으로 구성된다. 문자 분할 단계에서는 인접한 두 문자간의 연결을 효과적으로 분리하면서 문자 넓이 값의 분산이 최소가 되도록 하는 문자 분할 방법을 제안한다. 키워드 특징은 서체별 문자 모델의 결합으로 구성한다. 단어 매칭 단계에서는 문자 매칭에 기반한 단어 대 단어 매칭 방법을 적용한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 키워드 검출 시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위해 한글 문서 영상을 대상으로 OCR 기반 문서 검색 시스템과 비교하였다. 그 결과 한글 글자 크기가 작고 문서의 상태가 좋지 않은 경우 제안한 키워드 검출 시스템에 의한 검색 성능이 OCR 기반 검색 시스템 보다 우수함을 입증하였다.

A more accurate method of feature point extraction and matching for three-dimensional reconstruction using low-resolution images of crops is proposed herein. This method is important in basic computer vision. In addition to three-dimensional reconstruction from exact matching, map-making and camera location information such as simultaneous localization and mapping can be calculated. The results of this study suggest applicable methods for low-resolution images that produce accurate results. This is expected to contribute to a system that measures crop growth condition.

We introduce a vision-based hand gesture recognition fer understanding musical time and patterns without extra special devices. We suggest a simple and reliable vision-based hand gesture recognition having two features First, the motion-direction code is proposed, which is a quantized code for motion directions. Second, the conducting feature point (CFP) where the point of sudden motion changes is also proposed. The proposed hand gesture recognition system extracts the human hand region by segmenting the depth information generated by stereo matching of image sequences. And then, it follows the motion of the center of the gravity(COG) of the extracted hand region and generates the gesture features such as CFP and the direction-code finally, we obtain the current timing pattern of beat and tempo of the playing music. The experimental results on the test data set show that the musical time pattern and tempo recognition rate is over 86.42% for the motion histogram matching, and 79.75% fer the CFP tracking only.

RGB+D database has been widely used in object recognition, object tracking, robot control, to name a few. While rapid advance of active depth sensing technologies allows for the widespread of indoor RGB+D databases, there are only few outdoor RGB+D databases largely due to an inherent limitation of active depth cameras. In this paper, we propose a novel method used to build outdoor RGB+D databases. Instead of using active depth cameras such as Kinect or LIDAR, we acquire a pair of stereo image using high-resolution stereo camera and then obtain a depth map by applying stereo matching algorithm. To deal with estimation errors that inevitably exist in the depth map obtained from stereo matching methods, we develop an approach that estimates confidence of depth maps based on unsupervised learning. Unlike existing confidence estimation approaches, we explicitly consider a spatial correlation that may exist in the confidence map. Specifically, we focus on refining confidence feature with the assumption that the confidence feature and resultant confidence map are smoothly-varying in spatial domain and are highly correlated to each other. Experimental result shows that the proposed method outperforms existing confidence measure based approaches in various benchmark dataset.

시설물의 유지 관리 및 모니터링에 UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles)의 활용이 확대되고 있다. 안전 점검을 위한 시설물의 외관 상태 평가를 위하여 고해상도 영상을 취득하는 것이 필요하며, 넓은 지역을 빠르게 취득하기 위하여 비디오 데이터로 취득할 필요가 있다. 일반적으로 비디오 데이터에는 위치 정보가 포함되지 않아, 검사 개체의 실제 크기에 대한 정량적 분석이 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 교량 시설물을 대상으로 비디오 프레임과 기준 사진의 정합을 이용하여 교량의 3차원 점군(point cloud) 데이터의 활용성을 평가하고자 한다. 드론을 이용하여 비디오와 사진을 취득하고, 기준 사진과의 특징점 정합을 통하여 비디오 프레임의 외부 표정 요소를 생성하였다. 실험 결과 비디오 프레임 데이터는 기준 사진과 유사한 표정 정확도를 얻었으며, 표정된 프레임 데이터를 이용하여 생성된 점군 데이터는 교량의 형상 및 크기를 잘 표현하였다. 향후 다양한 조건의 정합 실험을 통하여 결과물의 안정성이 확인되면, 비디오 기반의 시설물 모델링 및 점검에 효과적으로 적용될 것으로 기대된다.

Odometry is the critical factor to estimate the location of the robot. In the mobile robot with wheels, odometry can be performed using the information from the encoder. However, the information of location in the encoder is inaccurate because of the errors caused by the wheel's alignment or slip. In general, visual odometer has been used to compensate for the kinetic errors of robot. In case of using the visual odometry under some robot system, the kinetic analysis is required for compensation of errors, which means that the conventional visual odometry cannot be easily applied to the implementation of the other type of the robot system. In this paper, the novel visual odometry, which employs only the single camera toward the ground, is proposed. The camera is mounted at the center of the bottom of the mobile robot. Feature points of the ground image are extracted by using median filter and color contrast filter. In addition, the linear and angular vectors of the mobile robot are calculated with feature points matching, and the visual odometry is performed by using these linear and angular vectors. The proposed odometry is verified through the experimental results of driving tests using the encoder and the new visual odometry.
