The purpose of this research is to construct real-time image acquisition system for a line-scan inspection system as a computer vision system. To construct the line-scan inspection system, many problem arise. However, problems of image acquisitions using linear CCD are practically studied in this paper. These problems are concerned to proper lighting systems, relations with handling system, camera systems, and impacts due to the noise of environment. These problems are examined separately, and proper configurations for each case are suggested to construct the line-scan image acquisition system.

이미지 센서와 렌즈를 모듈 상에 고정할 때, 기계적인 오차로 인해 취득된 영상의 기울임 또는 회전이 발생하기도 하고 화각이 좁아지기도 한다. 따라서 테스트 장비에서 이미지 센서 모듈의 광학적 특성을 테스트하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이미지 센서 모듈의 광학적 특성을 테스트하는 방법을 설명하고, 이를 영상 취득 특성과 유사한 방식으로 표준화한 기술 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 테스트 장비가 영상 취득 특성과 광학적 특성을 함께 테스트하는데 도움이 된다.

As the price of image acquisition component becomes low enough, the compact and easily accessible handheld devices are generally equipped with image acquisition functionality. This trend speeds up various applications in diverse areas such as image related services and software. Therefore users strongly need to identify their images effectively and efficiently so that the duplicated images are perceived as one physical entity. In order to handle this environment, we propose a number of methods that generate image identifiers utilizing fundamental image features. In this paper, we analyze the identifier generation methods in terms of various size patterns, especially for tiny size cases, since the small images does not contain abundant pixels for feature extraction. In this paper, experimental evaluation over identifier generation methods' behavior according to different sizes is demonstrated.

Three dimensional data acquisition system based on the structured light is developed in this work. The system is composed of a CCD camera, slide projector, and various image processing programs. Calibration procedures and several image processing steps which are necessary to get the rnage data are described. A new grid labeling technique and a grid pattern are devised to improve the accuracy of th eobtained data. Preliminary experimental result shows that the developed system may be used as a simple and cheap 3D data acquisition system. Severla suggestions are included for further research.

This study aimed to analyze the applicability of the improved median filter in positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) fusion images based on parallel imaging using generalized autocalibrating partially parallel acquisition (GRAPPA). In this study, a PET/MR fusion imaging system based on a 3.0T magnetic field and ¹⁸F radioisotope were used. An improved median filter that can set a mask of the median value more efficiently than before was modeled and applied to the acquired image. As quantitative evaluation parameters of the noise level, the contrast to noise ratio (CNR) and coefficient of variation (COV) were calculated. Additionally, no-reference-based evaluation parameters were used to analyze the overall image quality. We confirmed that the CNR and COV values of the PET/MR fusion images to which the improved median filter was applied improved by approximately 3.32 and 2.19 times on average, respectively, compared to the noisy image. In addition, the no-reference-based evaluation results showed a similar trend for the noise-level results. In conclusion, we demonstrated that it can be supplemented by using an improved median filter, which suggests the problem of image quality degradation of PET/MR fusion images that shortens scan time using GRAPPA.

Purpose: Whole-body PET using radiopharmaceutical is one of the imaging study methods for physiological changes of body. High specificity of the PET-CT examination is used to detect an early stages of cancer and metastatic cancer by imaging a physiological changes. During the imaging process, PET image has been characterized by a relatively low image quality due to its low sensitivity and the acquisition of random and scatter coincidences as well as patients figure. Therefore, the image quality as the changes of the acquisition times of patient weight was evaluated in this study. Materials and Methods: Thirty patients who presented to our hospital were enrolled. They were divided to normal, overweight, and obese group using BMI index, respectively. The patients with a liver disease and diabetes were excluded. $^{18}F-FDG$ was administered to the patients as 5.2 MBq per kg. After an hour from an injection, image acquisition was obtained as List mode in a part of liver in 1 bed. SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) of each groups acquisition times were confirmed from the calculated radiation counts and random fractions. The statistical significance of three groups was confirmed through one-way ANOVA test. On the basis of the counts of 2 minutes on normal group, the SNR of overweight group and obese group were compared. Results: The SNR were increased with loger aquisition time in 3 groups. In the condition of same acquisition time, the SNR had a statistical significance (P<0.05). The SNR were decreased to the normal, overweight, and obese, respectively. Liver activity had no significance difference on each group and RF had the significance differences (P<0.05). On the basis of the counts of 2 minutes on normal group, there were no statistical significance in a three minute acquisitions of overweight group and two minute acquisitions of obese group (P=0.150). Conclusion: In this study, the administrated amount of radiation dose did not adjust as the change of the patients weight. Increasing the acquisition time when the administration of the same amount of dose was able to get a good result of SNR. When the Based 2 minute on normal group, if overweight and obese case the increased acquisition time of 3 minute was able to obtain a similar SNR. On the basis of the normal group, the acquisition times of overweight and obese group were increased to 3 minutes per bed and the SNR were similar to the normal group.

An effective method is proposed for detecting, acquisition and tracking of a moving object using a disturbance map method in complex image sequences. A significant moving object is detected and tracked within the field of view by computing a modified disturbance map method between an Input image and a temporal average image. This method is very efficient in the serveillance application of digital CCTV and an automatic tracking camera. Experimental results using a real image sequence confirmed that the proposed method can effectively detect and track a significant moving object in complex image sequences.
