본 논문은 어류영상 검색을 위해 어류영상에서 어류객체를 추출하기 위한 영상분할 알고리즘을 제안하고 있다. 명암 유사도를 이용한 기존 알고리즘은 객체와 배경의 명암이 유사한 경계 영역에서 잘못된 영상분할 결과를 초래한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 대비가 약한 경계영역에 대응하기 위해 강화된 에지와 적응적 블록단위의 임계값을 사용하고, 대비가 없는 경계 영역에서 침식 혹은 단절된 객체를 개선하기 위해 가상 객체를 사용하고 있다. 모의실험 결과는 시각적으로 좋은 어류객체를 추출하는 비율이 기존 알고리즘에서는 90% 이하인 반면 제안된 알고리즘에서는 97.7%인 것을 보여주고 있다.

Mammogram images are sensitive in nature and even a minor change in the environment affects the quality of the images. Due to the lack of expert radiologists, it is difficult to interpret the mammogram images. In this paper an algorithm is proposed for a computer-aided diagnosis system, which is based on the wavelet based adaptive sigmoid function. The cascade feed-forward back propagation technique has been used for training and testing purposes. Due to the poor contrast in digital mammogram images it is difficult to process the images directly. Thus, the images were first processed using the wavelet based adaptive sigmoid function and then the suspicious regions were selected to extract the features. A combination of texture features and gray-level co-occurrence matrix features were extracted and used for training and testing purposes. The system was trained with 150 images, while a total 100 mammogram images were used for testing. A classification accuracy of more than 95% was obtained with our proposed method.

지난 몇년간 유방 초음파영상을 이용한 신호 및 영상처리 기술과 자동 영상 최적화 기술, 유방 종괴 자동 검출 및 분류 기술 등, 컴퓨터 보조 진단(computer-aided diagnosis, CAD)을 활용하는 연구들이 활발히 진행되어지고 있다. 컴퓨터진단기술이 개발될수록 암의 조기 발견이 정확하고 빠르게 진행되어 건강 보험과 환자의 검사 빙용을 줄일 수 있고 조직 검사에 대한 불안감을 없앨 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 본 논문에서는 GLCM(gray level co-occurrence matrix)을 사용하여 초음파 영상에서 종양의 정량적 분석을 진행하여 컴퓨터보조 진단에 활용 가능성을 실험하였다.

Tooth surface shape error is an important parameter in gear accuracy evaluation. When tooth surface shape error is measured by laser interferometry, the gear interferogram is highly distorted and the gray level distribution is not uniform. Therefore, it is important for gear interferometry to extract the foreground region from the gear interference fringe image directly and accurately. This paper presents an approach for foreground extraction in gear interference images by leveraging the sinusoidal variation characteristics shown by the interference fringes. A gray level mask with an adaptive threshold is established to capture the relevant features, while a local variance evaluation function is employed to analyze the fluctuation state of the interference image and derive a repair mask. By combining these masks, the foreground region is directly extracted. Comparative evaluations using qualitative and quantitative assessment methods are performed to compare the proposed algorithm with both reference results and traditional approaches. The experimental findings reveal a remarkable degree of matching between the algorithm and the reference results. As a result, this method shows great potential for widespread application in the foreground extraction of gear interference images.

Purpose; To find out the best imaging parameters for the diagnosis of disc in MRI imaging. Materials and methods; The diagnostic quality of the disc among the Tl, PD and T2 images of same patients02 joints, 223 images) was compared by visual(I-IV grades) and gray level measurement (pre- and infra-discal area) method. Results; PD images showed best results with 43.7％ of the images belonging to grade III (good) and with statistically significant higher difference of the gray levels at pre- and infra-discal areas. But there were no grade N (excellent) images. Conclusions; PD images are best method among Tl. PD and T2 images in diagnosing the disc but since there were no excellent images further imaging parameters should be studied for better images.

This investigation was performed to test the readability of the video based digital radiography, that can be applied clinically, compared with the periapical radiograph. The experiments were performed with IBM-PC/AT compatible, video camera and ADC (analog-digital converter). And spatial resolution was 512 X 480 with 256 (8 bit) gray levels. The radiographs obtained by using variable steps of exposure time were digitized. and then the digital images were analyzed. The obtained results were as follows: 1. There was no remarkable difference in readability between the radiographs and their digital images. However, under over exposure the digital images were superior to the radiographs in readability and vice versa. 2. As the exposure time was increased, the gray level of the digital image was decreased proportionally. 3. The correlation beween the regions of interest and the aluminum step wedges were relatively close; R=0.9965 (p <0.001).

디저법은 2치 영상이지만 인간 시각의 적분 효과에 의해 濃淡이 있는 영상처럼 보이게 하는 방법으로 위치에 따라 값이 다른 문턱값과 濃淡이 있는 영상의 화소값을 비교하여 화소값이 문턱값보다 크면 흰색(on), 작으면 검은색(off)으로 결정하는 수법이다. 본 논문에서는 디저영상으로부터 濃淡영상을 추정하는 새로운 다치추정법을 제안하여 그 결과가 종래의 방법보다 약 0.7dB 개선되었음을 보이고, 이 방법을 사용하여 영상의 새로운 단계적 전송 방법을 제안한다.

In this paper, we present a new system, OPTISCOPE SA, especially designed for precise measurement of temporal behavior of LCD displays. We show that gray to gray level response time measurement requires a very sensitive and precise instrument and also that the capacity to measure luminance levels and gamma curve can be useful. Quite often, precise evaluation of LCD response time needs also use of low pass and stop band filters to suppress noise and flicker. Low pass filters affect the results but can be corrected for simple temporal behaviors. For complex temporal behaviors like those observed for overdriven LCDs, we show that direct adjustment of theoretical responses is much more efficient to get a complete picture of the temporal behavior of such displays.

The effect of sulfur content and inoculant on solidification microstructure and mechanical properties of gray cast iron have been investigated. The main results obtained are as follows, 1. In the FeSi3Ca1Ba inoculated irons, with the variation of sulfur content, low sulfur levels (${\sim}0.03%$) yield low chill depth, high tensile strength, good wear resistance and type A graphite with a pearlite matrix. High sulfur levels( >0.08%) provide high chill depth, low mechanical proper ties and type D graphite with small amount ferrite. 2. In case of inoculant variation with normal FeSi, FeSi3Ca1Ba, 30CaSi and uninoculation at 0.03%S level, lower chill depth and higher tensile strength was obtained in the order ; 30CaSi, FeSi3Ca1Ba normal FeSi, uninoculation.

A new stereoscopic PIV has been constructed using two CCD cameras, stereoscopic photogrammetry, and 3D-PTV principle. The capability of the developed stereoscopic PIV was verified through a test on the Standard Images which are provided on the website of VSJ. The arrangement of the two cameras was based on angular position For the acquisition of 3D velocity vectors, 2D velocity vectors were obtained using the gray-level cross-correlation method from the two camera images and they were matched stereoscopically. The wake of a circular cylinder was measured and turbulent properties were presented.
