Image stitching techniques produce an image with a wide field-of-view by aligning multiple images with a narrow field-of-view. While conventional algorithms successfully stitch images with a small parallax, structure misalignment may occur when input images contain a large parallax. This paper presents an image stitching algorithm that aligns images with a large parallax by regional linear warping. To this end, input images are first approximated as multiple planar surfaces, and different linear warping is applied to each planar surface. For approximating input images as multiple planar surfaces, the concept of dominant edges is introduced. Dominant edges are defined as conspicuous edges of lines in input images, and extracted dominant edges identify the boundaries of each planar surface. Dominant edge extraction is conducted by detecting distinct changes of local characteristics around strong edge pixels. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm successfully stitches images with a large parallax without structure misalignment.

Web Usage Mining (WUM) is one part of Web mining and also the application of data mining technique. Web mining technology is used to identify and analyze user's access patterns by using web server log data generated by web users when users access web site. So first of all, it is important that the data should be acquired in a reasonable way before applying data mining techniques to discover user access patterns from web log. The main task of data acquisition is to efficiently obtain users' detailed click behavior in the process of users' visiting Web site. This paper mainly focuses on data acquisition stage before the first stage of web usage mining data process with activities like data acquisition strategy and field extraction algorithm. Field extraction algorithm performs the process of separating fields from the single line of the log files, and they are also well used in practical application for a large amount of user data.

Environmental mismatch has been one of important issues discussed in matched field processing for underwater source detection problem. To overcome this mismatch many algorithms professing robustness have been suggested. Feature extraction method (FEM) [Seong and Byun, IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 27(3), 642-652 (2002)] is one of robust matched field processing algorithms, which is based on the eigenvector estimation. Excluding eigenvectors of replica covariance matrix corresponding to large eigenvalues and forming an incoherent subspace of the replica field, the processor is formulated similarly to MUSIC algorithm. In this paper, by using the ocean experimental data, processing results of FEM and MVDR with white noise constraint (WNC) are presented for two levels of multi-tone source. Analysis of eigen-space of CSDM and FEM performance are also presented.

In this paper, We proposed the stereo image modeling using 2-dimensional images captured by the high resolution cameras to inspect the ball defects of BGA(Ball Grid Array) device. The proposed algorithm consists of the package/ball area extraction part, the FOV(Field of View) calibration part, the top point matching part, and ball height measurement part, In the package/ ball area extraction part, the package and ball areas are separately extracted in a left and right image by the extraction algerian. Through the experiment, we draw out the result.

The process of character recognition goes through 5 steps; image acquisition, character region extraction, preprocessing, character region segmentation, character recognition. Therefore the final recognition rate of character recognition is directly affected by the performance of each step. This paper is a leading research for object recognition using image processing algorithm which is one of the field of study in computer vision. And this paper will suggest an algorithm to extract the portion of number chain, which is part of the research embodying a system to perceive the data of manufacture and the name of the producer on the wrapping of groceries. In addition, this can extract the number chain comparatively accurate without using many complex algorithm by diving and extracting the moving number region at the same time.

VSField-associated term is a single or compound word whose terms occur in any document, and which makes it possible to recognize a field of text by using common knowledge of human. For example, human recognizes the field of document such as or , a field name of text, when she encounters a word 'Pitcher' or 'election', respectively We Proposes an efficient construction method of field-associated terms (FTs) for specializing field to decide a field of text. We could fix document classification scheme from well-classified document database or corpus. Considering focus field we discuss levels and stability ranks of field-associated terms. To construct a balanced FT collection, we construct a single FTs. From the collections we could automatically construct FT's levels, and stability ranks. We propose a new extraction algorithms of FT's for document classification by using FT's concentration rate, its occurrence frequencies.

In this paper, we develop an algorithm of soccer image sequences mosaicing using reverse affine transform. The continuous mosaic images of soccer ground field allows the user/viewer to view a “wide picture” of the player’s actions The first step of our algorithm is to automatic detection and tracking player, ball and some lines such as center circle, sideline, penalty line and so on. For this purpose, we use the ground field extraction algorithm using color information and player and line detection algorithm using four P-rules and two L-rules. The second step is Affine transform to map the points from image to model coordinate using predefined and pre-detected four points. General Affine transformation has many holes in target image. In order to delete these holes, we use reverse Affine transform. We tested our method in real image sequence and the experimental results are given.

In this paper, we propose a binarization algorithm using LVQ-Merge clustering method for fast and accurate extraction of cells from cell images. The proposed method clusters pixel data of a given image by using LVQ to remove noise and divides the result into two clusters by applying a hierarchical clustering algorithm to improve the accuracy of binarization. As a result, the execution speed is somewhat slower than that of the conventional LVQ or Otsu algorithm. However, the results of the binarization have very good quality and are almost identical to those judged by the human eye. Especially, the bigger and the more complex the image, the better the binarization quality. This suggests that the proposed method is a useful method for medical image processing field where high-resolution and huge medical images must be processed in real time. In addition, this method is possible to have many clusters instead of two cluster, so it can be used as a method to complement a hierarchical clustering algorithm.

Field-associated Terms itself have field Information. So, they determine field of document just like when human being perceives field. In case of Korean, we organized and experimented them by collecting approximately IS,999 document banks that are classified into 180 fields. We obtained high precision of extraction that 88,782 single field-associated terms are contracted into 8,405 ones thus recording compression rate as approximately 9$\%$ and recall as above 0.77 (average 0.85), precision as above 0.90 (average 0.94). By applying established field-associated terms to initial determination for document classification and comparing it with filed determination by human being, we got correct answers above approximately 90$\%$. We can use results of research as fundamental research for initial stage and apply it document retrieval between multilingual environment thus utilizing it as fundamental research for multilingual information retrieval.
