Today, modern people perceive skin care as part of their physical health care, and acne is a common skin disease problem that is found on the face. In this paper, an effective acne detection algorithm using CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ color space has been proposed. It is red when the pixel value of the component image $a^*$ is a positive number, so it is suitable for detecting acne in skin image. First, the skin image based on the RGB color space is subjected to light compensation through color balancing, and converted into a CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ color space. The extracted component image $a^*$ was normalized, and then the skin and acne area were estimated with the threshold values. Experimental results show that the proposed method detects acne more effectively than the conventional method based on brightness information, and the proposed method is robust against the reflected light source.

In this paper, the relationship between RGB, HSV, La^*b^* colors and sugar content was analyzed using linear regression on apples harvested in the same region. First, as a result of examining the correlation coefficient with sugar content according to each color level, it was found that the (+) region having a positive coefficient and a (-) region having a negative coefficient were separated according to the color level. Also, the correlation coefficient between color and sugar content, represented by the average value, was 0.342 in the La^*b^* color space, which was higher than the coefficient in the RGB and hsv space. That is, this means that the sugar content is related to the color in the La^*b^* space. Also, in the complex color composed of regions with high sugar content, it was found to be R²=0.3627, indicating that it is related to sugar content. In all nine color spaces, it was found to be R²=0.3668. In this case, it was found that the coefficients of v and b^* had an effect on the sugar content. Due to this, it was possible to confirm the validity of the empirical prediction that the higher the b^* representing yellow, the higher the sugar content.

본 논문에서는 차세대 무인 군사 로봇에 활용할 수 있는 적군 및 아군 식별 수단으로 군복의 색깔을 이용한 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 전장지역의 군사로봇이 할 수 있는 피아식별법 중에 하나로 로봇에 부착되어 있는 카메라 외에 추가적으로 가져야 하는 장비가 필요 없기 때문에 추가비용 없이 효과적으로 적군을 포착할 수 있다. 군복의 색깔 차이를 식별하기 위해서는 먼저 HOG(Histogram of Oriented Gradients) 기법을 이용하여 사람을 검출한 다음, 이후 검출된 사람영역에 대하여 인체 비율을 고려해서 추출한 상의 부분의 색깔 데이터를 받는다. 이때 색공간은 HSV 공간으로 하여 조명의 변화에 덜 민감하도록 하였다. 북한 군복 색깔 영역의 pixel들만 추출하여 이진화를 한 후, 상의 전체 픽셀에 대한 개수 비율을 계산한다. 비율이 임계값 보다 높을 경우 적으로 인식한다.

The visual sensing of human hands plays an important part in many man-machine interaction/interface systems. Most existing visionbased hand detection techniques depend on the color cues of human skin. The RGB color image from a vision sensor is often transformed to another color space as a preprocessing of hand detection because the color space transformation is assumed to increase the detection accuracy. However, the actual effect of color space transformation has not been well investigated in literature. This paper discusses a comparative evaluation of the pixel classification performance of hand skin detection in four widely used color spaces; RGB, YIQ, HSV, and normalized rgb. The experimental results indicate that using the normalized red-green color values is the most reliable under different backgrounds, lighting conditions, individuals, and hand postures. The nonlinear classification of pixel colors by the use of a multilayer neural network is also proposed to improve the detection accuracy.

Mountain accidents such as forest fires and missing people are increasing as hikers increase due to indoor activities restrictions caused by the prolonged COVID-19 incident. If a dangerous situation occurs at outside where rescue workers cannot reach, the search time for person can be reduced using a quadcopter. Considering this, in this paper, Multiwii is used to smoothly hover the quadcopter by setting optimized PID values of the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis (Yaw) according to the change in the inclination of the gas. In addition, after installing Open CV on Raspberry Pie, the camera uses HSV color space to filter the color such as the description of the person, and uses a thermal imaging camera to receive thermal sensing images in real time in environments where color extraction is difficult. As a result, it was confirmed that hovering was possible at a height of 2 to 8 m, blue extraction was possible at a height of 5 m, and heat detection was possible at a distance of less than 10 cm.

The skin color of a human being is the important memory color influencing image quality for color display. Therefore, in this paper, the preferred skin color axis is defined on HSV color space by analyzing some previous research, and the preferred skin color reproduction algorithm is performed by rotating the center axis of skin distribution of an input image to the preferred skin color axis.

In this paper, we present an upsampling technique for depth map image using color and depth weights. First, we construct a high-resolution image using the bilinear interpolation technique. Next, we detect a common edge region using RGB color space, HSV color space, and depth image. If an interpolated pixel belongs to the common edge region, we calculate weighting values of color and depth in $3{\times}3$ neighboring pixels and compute the cost value to determine the boundary pixel value. Finally, the pixel value having minimum cost is determined as the pixel value of the high-resolution depth image. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves good performance in terns of PSNR comparison and subjective visual quality.

The mainstay of current image recovery frameworks is Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). The most distinctive retrieval method involves the submission of an image query, after which the system extracts visual characteristics such as shape, color, and texture from the images. Most of the techniques use RGB color space to extract and classify images as it is the default color space of the images when those techniques fail to change the color space of the images. To determine the most effective color space for retrieving images, this research discusses the transformation of RGB to different color spaces, feature extraction, and usage of Convolutional Neural Networks for retrieval.

In this paper, we proposed a method for enhancement of color images with sky regions. The input image is converted into HSV space and then sky and non-sky regions are separated. For sky region, saturation enhancement is performed for each pixel based on the enhancement factor calculated from the average saturation of its local neighborhood. On the other hand, for the non-sky region, the enhancement is applied only on the luminance value (V) component of the HSV color image, which is performed in two steps. The luminance enhancement, which is also called as dynamic range compression, is carried out using nonlinear transfer function. Again, each pixel is further enhanced for the adjustment of the image contrast depending upon the center pixel and its neighborhood pixel values. At last, the original H and V component image and enhanced S component image for the sky region, and original H and S component image and enhanced V component image for the non-sky region are converted back to RGB image.
