When we are collecting traffic information on CCTV images, we have to install the detect zone in the image area during pan-tilt system is on duty. An automation of detect zone with pan-tilt system is not easy because of machine error. So the fisheye lens attached camera or convex mirror camera is needed for getting wide area images. In this situation some troubles are happened, that is a decreased system speed or image distortion. This distortion is caused by occlusion of angled ray as like trembled snapshot in digital camera. In this paper, we propose two methods of de-blurring to overcome distortion, the one is image segmentation by nonlinear diffusion equation and the other is deformation for some segmented area. As the results of doing de-blurring methods, the de-blurring image has 15 decibel increased PSNR and the detection rate of collecting traffic information is more than 5% increasing than in distorted images.

TFT-LCD image includes a defect of various properties. TFT-LCD image have a recognizable defects in the human inspector. On the other hand, it is difficult to detect defects that difference between the background and defect is very low. In this paper, we proposed sequentially detect algorithm from pixels included in the defect region to limited defects. And blob analysis methods using the blob size and gray difference are applied to the defect candidate image. Finally, we detect an accurate defect blob to distinguish the noise. The experimental results show that the proposed method finds the various defects reliably.

Generally estimation of driving direction uses the way which uses lane detection and vanishing point in autonomous-driving system. Especially we use Sub-window for decreasing Process time when we detect lane, but fixed sub-window can not detect lane because of some factors in road image. So we suggest algorithm using one-dimension line scan method to detect an exact position of lane.

This study was conducted to find out the coefficient relationships between intensity values image processing and pollution density of slurries. Slurry images were obtained from the image processing system using personnel computer and CCD-camera. Software, written in Visual $c^{++}$, combined the functions of the image capture, image processing and image analysis. The data of image processing for slurries were analyzed by the method of regression analysis. The results are as follows. 1. Red(R)-values among image processing data were obtained the highest correlation coefficient 0.9213 for detecting COD. Also, green(G)-value were obtained the highest correlation coefficient 0.9019 fur detecting BOD. Blue(B)-value could not find significant values to detect the pollution resources density. 2. Hue(H)-values among image processing data were obtained the highest correlation coefficient 0.9466 for detecting BOD. This fact could be used in detecting BOD 3. Green(G)-value, GRAY-value, Hue(H)-value, Saturation(5)-value and Intensity(I)-value were the correlation coefficient more than 0.8 for BOD. Hue(H)-value was higher correlation coefficient than any other value. It was possible to detect pollution density of slurries by using the image processing system. 4. Red(R)-value, GRAY-value and Saturation(5)-value were obtained the correlation coefficient more than 0.8 for detecting COD. a-value had the highest correlation coefficient Among these values. It was possible to detect density indirectly by using the image processing system. 5. SS-density were obtained the correlation coefficient less than 0.8 by using the image processing system. The density of $NH_4$-N and $NO_3$-N were obtained correlation coefficient less than 0.2.

The purpose of this thesis is to detect multiple vehicles using sequence image analysis at process that detect forward vehicles and lane from sequential color images. Detection of vehicles candidate area uses shadow characteristic and edge information in one frame. And, method to detect multiple vehicles area analyzes Estimation of Vehicle(EOV) and Accumulated Similarity Function(ASF) of vehicles candidate areas that exist in sequential images and examine possibility to be vehicles. Most researches detected a forward vehicles in road images but this research presented method to detect several vehicles and apply enough in havy traffic. To verify the effects of the proposed method, we capture the road images with notebook and CCD camera for PC and present the results such as processing time, accuracy and vehicles detection in the images.

In this paper, an image detection technique is proposed to extract image features in a mobile terminal environment. To detect objects, the HSI color model of the image is used. The object's corner points are detected using the Harris corner detection method. Finally we detect the object of interest using region growing The experiment results show that the proposed method improves detection performance and reduces the amount of computation.

Human frequently communicate non-linguistic information with gesture. So, we must develop efficient and fast gesture recognition algorithms for more natural human-computer interaction. However, it is difficult to recognize gesture automatically because human's body is three dimensional object with very complex structure. In this paper, we suggest a method which is able to detect key frames and frame changes, and to classify image sequence into some gesture groups. Gesture is classifiable according to moving part of body. First, we detect some frames that motion areas are changed abruptly and save those frames as key frames, and then use the frames to classify sequences. We symbolize each image of classified sequence using Principal Component Analysis(PCA) and clustering algorithm since it is better to use fewer components for representation of gestures. Symbols are used as the input symbols for the Hidden Markov Model(HMM) and recognized as a gesture with probability calculation.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of spatial resolutions on digital image for detecting pine trees damaged by pine wilt disease. Color infrared images taken from PKNU-3 multispectral airborne photographing system with a spatial resolution of 50cm was used as a basic data. Further test images with spatial resolutions of 1m, 2m and 4m were made from the basic data to test the detecting capacity on each spatial resolution. The test was performed with visual interpretation both on mono and stereo modus and compared with field surveying data. It can be conclude that it needs less than 1m spational resolutions or 1m spatial resolutions with stereo pair in order to detect pine trees damaged by pine wilt disease.

The presence of voids under pavements or behind tunnel linings results in their deterioration. To detect these voids effectively by non-destructive tests, a method using radar was proposed. In this research, not only the detection of shape of voids, but also the location of reinforcing bars by radar image analysis is investigated. The experiments and image processing were conducted to detect voids and to locate reinforcing bars in or under concrete pavements (or tunnel linings) with reinforcing bars. From the results, the fundamental algorithm for tracing the reinforcing bars and voids, improving the horizontal resolution of the object image and detecting shape of objects, was verified.

This study was to develop a machine vision system to detect and to discriminate 5 kinds of apple surface defectbruise, decay. fleck, worm hole and scar. To detect the defects from an image of apple, thresholding technique was applied to images on various frames (R, G, B, H, S and I) of the color machine vision and an image of near infrared (NIR). To discriminate the detected region of defect, various features of the 5 kind defect regions were extracted from the 4 kinds of images selected above. The features were size of area, roundness, axes length ratio, mean and valiance of pixel values, standard deviation of real part of amplitude spectrum in frequency domain obtained by Fourier transform of pixel data and mean and standard deviation of power spectrum obtained by the same transform of pixel data. Routines to discriminate the defects from the features of image were developed and tested to prove their validity. The test resulted that I-frame and NIR images were the most desirable. Accuracies of the two images to discriminate the defects were noted as 76% and 77%, respectively.
