The images of the meteorological satellite NOAA contain geometrical distortions caused by its ambiguous position, its vibration, its sensor's movement, and so on. Geometric correction of satellite images is one of the most important parts in many remote sensing as the primary processing. Ground control points (GCP's) are necessary to check the accuracy of geometric correction and used for precise geometric correction. In this paper, a method for automatically selecting the residual error is presented. Calculating the effective angle and residual errors vector using the succeeded matching GCP's, precise geometric correction using an affine transformation is applied to systematically a corrected image. And the error is decreased by an affine transformation. The above enable the geometric correction of high quality.

In this paper, we introduce an autonomous calibration method for a 2D laser displacement sensor (e.g. laser vision sensor and laser range finder) by matching a single point on a flat structure. Many arc welding robots install a 2D laser displacement sensor to expand their application by recognizing their environment (e.g. base metal and seam). In such systems, sensing data should be transformed to the robot's coordinates, and the geometric relation (i.e. rotation and translation) between the robot's coordinates and sensor coordinates should be known for the transformation. Calibration means the inference process of geometric relation between the sensor and robot. Generally, the matching of more than 3 points is required to infer the geometric relation. However, we introduce a novel method to calibrate using only 1 point matching and use a specific flat structure (i.e. circular hole) which enables us to find the geometric relation with a single point matching. We make the rotation component of the calibration results as a constant to use only a single point by moving a robot to a specific pose. The flat structure can be installed easily in a manufacturing site, because the structure does not have a volume (i.e. almost 2D structure). The calibration process is fully autonomous and does not need any manual operation. A robot which installed the sensor moves to the specific pose by sensing features of the circular hole such as length of chord and center position of the chord. We show the precision of the proposed method by performing repetitive experiments in various situations. Furthermore, we applied the result of the proposed method to sensor based seam tracking with a robot, and report the difference of the robot's TCP (Tool Center Point) trajectory. This experiment shows that the proposed method ensures precision.

본 논문은 동일한 특징을 사용하여 정형 객체와 비정형 객체 영상들을 정합할 수 있는 적응형 정합 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위한 방법으로 우선 기하학적 검증으로 두 영상의 정합 여부를 결정하고 정합 정보를 생성한다. 그리고 정합 정보의 통계적 분석을 통해 비정형 정합 쌍과 비정합 정합 쌍을 분류하는 결정 경계를 구한다. 제안된 방법의 성능 평가 결과는 기존의 방법과 비교하였을 때, 복잡도는 낮았으며, 정합 성공률과 정확도는 높아짐을 보여주었다.

As automated image processing techniques have been required in multi-temporal/multi-sensor geospatial image applications, use of automated but highly invariant image matching technique has been a critical ingredient. Note that there is high possibility of geometric and spectral differences between multi-temporal/multi-sensor geospatial images due to differences in sensor, acquisition geometry, season, and weather, etc. Among many image matching techniques, the SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) is a popular method since it has been recognized to be very robust to diverse imaging conditions. Therefore, the SIFT has high potential for the geospatial image processing. This paper presents a performance test results of the SIFT on geospatial imagery by simulating various image differences such as shear, scale, rotation, intensity, noise, and spectral differences. Since a geospatial image application often requires a number of good matching points over the images, the number of matching points was analyzed with its matching positional accuracy. The test results show that the SIFT is highly invariant but could not overcome significant image differences. In addition, it guarantees no outlier-free matching such that it is highly recommended to use outlier removal techniques such as RANSAC (RANdom SAmple Consensus).

This paper proposed the method of creating image mosaic in automated fashion. It is well known that geometric and radiometric balance in adjacent images should be maintained in mosaicking process. The seam line to minimize geometric discontinuity was extracted using Minimum Absolute­Gray-Difference Sum considering constraint condition in search width. To maintain the radiometric balance of images acquired at different time, we utilized Match Cumulative Frequency, Match Mean and Standard Deviation and Hue Adjustment algorithm. The mosaicked image prepared by the proposed method was compared with those of commercial software. Experiments show that seam lines were extracted significantly well from roads, rivers. ridgelines etc. and Match Cumulative Frequency algorithm was performed pretty good in histogram matching

In this paper, we propose a new method for template matching, patch ratio, to inpaint unknown pixels. Before this paper, many inpainting methods used sum of squared differences(SSD) or sum of absolute differences(SAD) to calculate distance between patches and it was very useful for closest patches for the template that we want to fill in. However, those methods don't consider about geometric similarity and that causes unnatural inpainting results for human visuality. Patch ratio can cover the geometric problem and moreover computational cost is less than using SSD or SAD. It is guaranteed about finding the most similar patches by Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. For ignoring unnecessary process, we compare only selected candidates by priority calculations. Exeperimental results show that the proposed algorithm is more efficent than Criminisi's one.

In this study, to clearly establish the concept of a geometric modeling I apply for the concept of Pushbroom, limited to two-dimensional radiation Locator to provide a three-dimensional information purposes. Respect to the radiation scanner Pushbroom modeling techniques, geometric modeling method was presented introduced to extract three-dimensional information as long as the rotational component of the Gamma-Ray Linear Pushbroom Stereo System, introduced the two-dimensional and three-dimensional spatial information in the matching relation that can be induced. In addition, the pseudo-inverse matrix by using the conventional least-squares method, GCP(Ground Control Point) to demonstrate compliance by calculating the key parameters. Projection transformation matrix is calculated for obtaining three-dimensional information from two-dimensional information can be used as the primary relationship, and through the application of a radiation image matching technology will make it possible to extract three-dimensional information from two-dimensional X-ray imaging.

This paper presents a new shape-based algorithm using affine category shape model for object category recognition and model learning. Affine category shape model is a graph of interconnected nodes whose geometric interactions are modeled using pairwise potentials. In its learning phase, it can efficiently handle large pose variations of objects in training images by estimating 2-D homography transformation between the model and the training images. Since the pairwise potentials are defined on only relative geometric relationship betweenfeatures, the proposed matching algorithm is translation and in-plane rotation invariant and robust to affine transformation. We apply spectral matching algorithm to find feature correspondences, which are then used as initial correspondences for RANSAC algorithm. The 2-D homography transformation and the inlier correspondences which are consistent with this estimate can be efficiently estimated through RANSAC, and new correspondences also can be detected by using the estimated 2-D homography transformation. Experimental results on object category database show that the proposed algorithm is robust to pose variation of objects and provides good recognition performance.

TOPS InSAR 처리를 위해서는 고정밀도의 영상정합이 요구된다. Sentinel-1 TOPS 모드영상에 교차상관 영상정합, 기하정합, Spectral Diversity 정합에 기반 한 Enhanced Spectral Diversity 정합 알고리즘 성능 비교분석을 통해 TOPS모드에 적합한 영상정합 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 25개의 Sentinel-1 TOPS 영상으로부터 생성된 23개의 간섭쌍을 이용하여, 교차상관정합(CC), 기하보정(GC1), 기하보정 후 교차상관정합(GC2, GC3, GC4) 그리고 ESD를 이용한 정합(ESD_GC, ESD_1, ESD_2) 총 8가지 방법을 적용하였다. 교차상관정합과 기하정합에 따른 azimuth 방향 정합오차를 평균한 결과는 각각 0.0041 화소, 0.0016 화소이다. 비록 ESD 방법은 azimuth 정합오차가 0.0005 화소 이하로 가장 정확한 결과를 보이지만, 기하정합 결과는 추가적인 교차상관정합을 통한 반복 과정을 통해 0.001 화소 정도로 오차가 감소하였다. ESD 방법은 burst 중첩지역의 긴밀도가 낮은 경우 적용이 불가능하다. 따라서 반복 적용을 통한 기하정합 방법은 다수의 SAR 자료를 이용한 시계열 분석 또는 긴 시간간격을 갖는 간섭도 생성을 위해서 적합한 대안이 된다.

Generally, it is very difficult to inspect geometric shape of large 2D objects after machining. To maintain the accuracy for inspection, a robot vision is used to divide overall shape into several enlarged images, and image processing technique is applied to acquire one minute geometric contour. The inspection is to compare the NC data with the measured contour data by the vision system, and the algorithm is to rotate to minimize the maximum deviation coinciding two geometric centers. This paper experimentally shows that the proposed inspection algorithm is very useful fur a large machined object.
