The image classification is one of the most important studies in the remote sensing. In general, the MLC(Maximum Likelihood Classification) classification that in consideration of distribution of training information is the most effective way but it produces a bad result when we apply it to actual hyperspectral image with the same classification technique. The purpose of this research is to reveal that which one is the most effective and suitable way of the classification algorithms iii the hyperspectral image classification. To confirm this matter, we apply the MLC classification algorithm which has distribution information and SAM(Spectral Angle Mapper), SFF(Spectral Feature Fitting) algorithm which use average information of the training class to both multispectral image and hyperspectral image. I conclude this result through quantitative and visual analysis using confusion matrix could confirm that SAM and SFF algorithm using of spectral pattern in vector domain is more effective way in the hyperspectral image classification than MLC which considered distribution.

In this paper, a content-based image retrieval scheme based on scale-space theory is proposed. The existing methods using scale-space theory consider all scales for image retrieval,thereby requiring a lot of computation. To overcome this problem, the proposed algorithm utilizes amodified histogram intersection method to select candidate images from database. The relative scalebetween a query image and a candidate image is calculated by the ratio of histograms. Feature pointsare extracted from the candidates using a corner detection algorithm. The feature vector for eachfeature point is composed of RGB color components and differential invariants. For computing thesimilarity between a query image and a candidate image, the euclidean distance measure is used. Theproposed image retrieval method has been applied to various images and the performance improvementover the existing methods has been verified.

In this paper, we propose a texture classification using wavelet-domain BDIP (block difference of inverse probabilities) and BVLC (block variance of local correlation coefficients) features with WPCA (whitened principal component analysis) classifier. In the proposed method, the wavelet transform is first applied to a query image. The BDIP and BVLC operators are next applied to the wavelet subbands. Global moments for each subband of BDIP and BVLC are then computed and fused into a feature vector. In classification, the WPCA classifier, which is usually adopted in the face identification, searches the training feature vector most similar to the query feature vector. Experimental results show that the proposed method yields excellent texture classification with low feature dimension for test texture image DBs.

This paper proposes a new method using Wide Line Detector based statistical shape Feature (WLDF) to identify whether or not a tongue is cracked; a cracked tongue is one of the most frequently used visible features for diagnosis in traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). We first detected a wide line in the tongue image, and then extracted WLDF, such as the maximum length of each detected region, and the ratio between maximum length and the area of the detected region. We trained a binary support vector machine (SVM) based on the WLDF to build a classifier for cracked tongues. We conducted an experiment based on our proposed scheme, using 196 samples of cracked tongues and 245 samples of non-cracked tongues. The results of the experiment indicate that the recognition accuracy of the proposed method is greater than 95%. In addition, we provide an analysis of the results of this experiment with different parameters, demonstrating the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Surface roughness is one of the most important parameters to estimate quality of products. As this reason so many studies were car-ried out through various attempts that were contact or non-contact using computer vision. Even through these efforts there were few good results in this research., however texture analysis making a important role to solve these problems in various fields including universe aviation living thing and fibers. In this study feature value of co-occurrence matrix was calculated by statistic method and roughness value of worked surface was classified, of it. Experiment was carried out using input vector of neural network with characteristic value of texture calculated from worked surface image. It's found that recognition rate of 74% was obtained when adapting texture features. In order to enhance recogni-tion rate combination type in characteristics value of texture was changed into input vector. As a result high recognition rate of 92.6% was obtained through these processes.

With rapid land development, land category should be updated on a regular basis. However, manual field surveys have certain limitations. In this study, attempts were made to extract a feature vector considering spectral signature by parcel, PIMP (Percent Imperviousness), texture, and VIs (Vegetation Indices) based on RapidEye satellite image and cadastral map. A total of nine land categories in which feature vectors were significantly extracted from the images were selected and classified using SVM (Support Vector Machine). According to accuracy assessment, by comparing the cadastral map and classification result, the overall accuracy was 0.74. In the paddy-field category, in particular, PO acc. (producer's accuracy) and US acc. (user's accuracy) were highest at 0.85 and 0.86, respectively.

Projection that can be used as a feature for image representation, includes much available informations such as approximated shape and location. But when we retrieve image using it, there are some disadvantage such as requiring much index data and making different length of projected vector for differenr image size. In order to overcome these problems, we propose a method of using block variance for the projected vector. We use block variance of the projection vector to localize the characteristics of image and to reduce the number of index data in database. Proposed algorithm can make use of statistical advantage through database including various size of images and be executed with fast response time in implementation.

This paper reports a machine learning approach for image object detection. Object detection and localization in a wild image, such as a STL-10 image dataset, is very difficult to implement using the traditional computer vision method. A convolutional neural network is a good approach for such wild image object detection. This paper presents an object detection application using a convolutional neural network with pretrained feature vector. This is a very simple and well organized hierarchical object abstraction model.

In anatomical aspects, magnetic resonance image offers more accurate information than other medical images such as X ray ultrasonic and CT images. This paper introduces a method that recognizes disk diseases from spine MR images. In this method, image enhancement, image segmentation and feature extraction for sagittal plane and axial plane images are performed to separate the disk region. And then template matching method is used to extract disease region for axial plane imges. Finally, disease feature vectors are integrated and disease discrimination processes are performed. Experimental results show that the proposed method discriminates between normal and diseased disk with a considerable recognition ratio.

Compression of magnetic resonance images (MRI) has proved to be more difficult than other medical imaging modalities. In an average sized hospital, many tora bytes of digital imaging data (MRI) are generated every year, almost all of which has to be kept. The medical image compression is currently being performed by using different algorithms. In this paper, Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) algorithm is used for the Vector Quantization (VQ). First, a digital image is divided into subblocks of fixed size, which consists of 4${\times}$4 blocks of pixels. By performing 2-D Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), we select six DCT coefficients to form the feature vector. And using FCM algorithm in constructing the VQ codebook. By doing so, the algorithm can make good time quality, and reduce the processing time while constructing the VQ codebook.
