The demand for handling images in digital form has increased dramatically in recent years. Digital image compression is required to store and transmit mass information in different from general information. JPEG(Joint Photographic Experts Group) committee founded by CCITT and ISO is define the still-image standard compression/restoration algorithm. JPEG is proposed the standard of grayscale and color still-image compression/restoration. In the image quality, JPEG is applicable to the various applications in which compression is able to from 1/10 to 1/50 without the visible obstacle. In this paper, we proposed that the proposed method enhance the compression ratio which is reducing the higher frequency in order to increasing the spatial redundancy in the image. The proposed method is using the low pass filter in order to reducing the higher frequency. The low-pass filters are using the median filter and convolution filter in the spatial domain, FFT filter in the frequency domain. We acquired the additive compression ratio reducing the higher frequency using the low-pass filter.

Many image hiding schemes based on least significant bit (LSB) transformation have been proposed. One of the LSB-based image hiding schemes that employs diamond encoding was proposed in 2008. In this scheme, the binary secret data is converted into base n representation, and the converted secret data is concealed in the cover image. Here, we show that this scheme has two vulnerabilities: noticeable spots in the stego-image, i.e., a non-smooth embedding result, and inefficiency caused by rough re-adjustment of falling-off-boundary value and impractical base translation. Moreover, we propose a new scheme that is efficient and produces a smooth and high quality embedding result by restricting n to power of 2 and using a sophisticated re-adjustment procedure. Our experimental results show that our scheme yields high quality stego-images and is secure against RS detection attack.

This paper shows the hiding process of unlimited secret text size in an image using three methods: the first method is the traditional method in steganography that based on the concealing the binary value of the text using the least significant bits method, the second method is a new method to hide the data in an image based on Exclusive OR process and the third one is a new method for hiding the binary data of the text into an image (that may be grayscale or RGB images) using Exclusive and Huffman Coding. The new methods shows the hiding process of unlimited text size (data) in an image. Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) is applied in the research to simulate the results.

본 논문에서는 전통적인 사진 기법에 기반하여 대비가 뚜렷한 흑백 영상을 얻기 위한 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 사진가들은 대비가 뚜렷한 흑백 사진을 얻기 위해 촬영 시 대비 필터(consrast filter)를 사용하여 특정 색이 부각된 흑백 필름을 얻고, 인화 시 버닝(burning)과 닷징(dodging) 같이 국지적 노출을 조절하는 기법을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 흑백 사진 기법에 대한 디지털 버전을 제안하고 이에 기반하여 영상의 시각적 특징을 최대한 유지하는 최적화 기법을 제안한다. 또한, 인접 픽셀간의 유사 가중치를 이용하여 경계를 감안한 연속적인 국지적 노출을 얻게 한다. 제안한 기법은 GPU상에서 구현 가능하며 메가픽셀 영상에 대해서도 시각적 특징을 유지하는 흑백 영상을 대화적 시간 안에 획득할 수 있다.

This study is mainly for the reduction of exposure dose by using a heavy elements filter(Gd) in the digital radiology. They contained heavy elements filter of Gd and X-ray beam hardening filters such as Al and Cu. According to the results of experimental evaluation, X-ray property was not changed with variety of kVp in the case of the Gd filter. The surface dose and absorption dose were increased in order of Cu and Al. The contrast of image showed the higher value in order of Cu, Al and Gd. While the use of Gd has increased the numerical value of the CR image, and grayscale has decreased noise value of the DR image.

This paper proposes a novel scheme of a gray scale fingerprint image for a high-accuracy capacitive sensor chip. The conventional grayscale image scheme uses a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) of a large-scale layout or charge-pump circuit with high power consumption and complexity by a global clock signal. A modified capacitive detection circuit for the charge sharing scheme is proposed, which uses a down literal circuit (DLC) with a floating-gate metal-oxide semiconductor transistor (FGMOS) based on a neuron model. The detection circuit is designed and simulated in a 3.3 V, 0.35 ${\mu}m$ standard CMOS process. Because the proposed circuit does not need a comparator and peripheral circuits, the pixel layout size can be reduced and the image resolution can be improved.

The constrained average method is one of dither methods which combines edge emphasis and grayscale rendition to provide legibility of textual region and proper quality of continuous tone region. How-ever, image quality of continuous tone region is insufficient compared to other dither methods, such as ordered dither methods or the error diffusion method. The constrained average method uses a uniform distribution function to decide number of lit pixels related to the average intensity in a picture area. However, actual distribution of continuous tone region is closer to the Laplacian distribution or triangle distribution. In this paper, we introduce various probability distributions and the actual luminance distribution to decide the threshold value of the constrained average method in order to improve image quality of dithered image.

In this paper an efficient morphologica algorithm for reducing gaussian and impulse noise in gray-scale image is presented. Based on the edge information the input image is partitioned into a flat region and an edge region, then different algorithms are selectively applied to each region. in case of impulse noise, MGR (morphologica grayscale reconstruction) algorithm with directional SE (structuring element) is applied to the flat region. For theedge region opening-closing (closing-opening) is used instead of dialation (erosion), so that the remaining noise around large objects can be removed. In case of gaussian noise, 5*5 OCCO(opening closing closing opening) and 3*3 DMF(directional morphological filter ) are used for the flat region and the edgeregion, respectively. In order to remove discontinuity at the edge boundary, the algorithm uses 3*3 OCCO around the edge region to reconstruct the final image. Experimetnal results have shown that the proposed algorithm achieves a high performance in terms of noise removal, detail preservation, and NMSE.

This paper is on the luster property of fertile fabric materials which is one of the important factors related to the development of clothing materials leading to the value-added products. Using several image analysis techniques, the optical properties, especially luster related ones, of the commercially available fabrics were measured and analyzed. The fabric samples included 6 kinds of preliminary experimental fabrics along with 22 kinds of fabric which were commercially available. The images acquired at various observing angles are taken by 44 Points and these Pictures are analyzed into luster through the image analysis program. The preliminary experiment demonstrated the effects of weave types and the number of yarn twist on the luster of the fabrics through the use of the image analysis program.

본 논문에서 grayscale 이미지를 그럴듯한 컬러 이미지로의 전환을 다루고자 한다. 기존의 CNN Network 를 통해 실제 Image 를 만들어내려는 기법들은 모든 Pixel 의 Error 를 Loss 로 사용한다. 각 픽셀별로 가장 완벽한 답을 찾으려고 하기보다는, 전체 픽셀의 관점에서의 Loss 를 줄이려고 하기 때문에, 픽셀 값이 정확한 값대신 안전한 값으로 넘어간다는 단점이 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서 GAN 기반의 Image-to-Image Translation 기법에 NIN(Network in Network) 적용해 이 문제를 해결할 수 있음을 보인다. 전통 CNN 기법보다 더 Photo-realistic 한 이미지를 생성할 수 있게 된다.
