Extraction of the coastal boundary is important because the boundary serves as a reference in the demarcation of maritime zones such as territorial sea, contiguous zone, and exclusive economic zone. Accurate nautical charts also depend on well established, accurate, consistent, and current coastline delineation. However, to identify the precise location of the coastal boundary is a difficult task due to tidal and wave motions. This paper presents an efficient way to extract coastlines by applying digital image processing techniques to Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery. Over the past few years, satellite-based SAR and high resolution airborne SAR images have become available, and SAR has been evaluated as a new mapping technology. Using remotely sensed data gives benefits in several aspects, especially SAR is largely unaffected by weather constraints, is operational at night time over a large area, and provides high contrast between water and land areas. Various image processing techniques including region growing, texture-based image segmentation, local entropy method, and refinement with image pyramid were implemented to extract the coastline in this study. Finally, the results were compared with existing coastline data derived from aerial photographs.

본 논문은 다양한 해상도에서의 초음파 영상 처리를 위한 최적의 프로세싱 엘리먼트 구조를 제안한다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 각 프로세싱 엘리먼트(processing element, PE)당 처리되는 영상 데이터(data-per-processing element, DPE) 수를 변화시키는 실험을 통해 시스템의 성능(system performance), 에너지 효율(energy efficiency), 면적 효율(area efficiency)을 각각 측정하고, 측정된 결과를 바탕으로 최적의 매니코어 프로세서 구조를 선택하였다. 모의실험 결과, 에너지 효율은 $256{\times}256$, $768{\times}1,024$, $1,024{\times}1,280$ 해상도를 갖는 영상에서 PE 개수가 각각 1,024개, 4,096개, 16,384개일 때 가장 높았다. 또한 면적 효율은 $256{\times}256$ 해상도의 영상에서는 PE 개수가 256개, $768{\times}1,024$와 $1,024{\times}1,280$ 해상도의 영상에서는 4,096개에서 가장 높은 효율을 보였다.

본 논문은 무인비행장치에 탑재된 카메라를 통해 획득한 고화질의 이미지를 무인비행장치 상에서 전처리를 하여 이동통신망을 통해 서버로 전송하기 위한 시스템 및 기법에 관한 것이다. 기존의 이미지 획득 서비스용 무인비행장치의 경우, 무인비행장치에 탑재된 카메라의 외부저장장치에 획득한 이미지를 저장하고, 비행이 완료된 이후에 저장장치를 직접 옮기는 방식으로 이미지를 확인하였다. 이러한 방식의 경우, 외부저장장치를 통해 직접적으로 이미지 데이터를 확인하기 전에는 이미지 획득이나 전처리가 제대로 수행되었는지 확인할 수 없다는 한계점이 존재한다. 또한 해당 데이터는 외부저장장치에만 저장되기 때문에 데이터의 공유가 번거롭다는 단점이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 위와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여, 원격에서 이미지를 실시간으로 확인 가능한 시스템을 제안한다. 더 나아가, 무인비행장치에서의 촬영을 통한 이미지 획득 외에 지오태깅과 같은 전처리와 이동통신망을 통한 전송까지 수행이 가능한 시스템 및 방법을 제안한다.

The response behavior of a fish school to an approaching vessel was observed using scanning sonar. The evaluation using six parameters, which signify characteristics of school shape and behavior by sonar image processing, was proposed. Ten fish schools were analyzed and among them, three fish schools were identified for their changing shape, swimming direction, and swimming speed. Moreover, by tracing fish schools on stack of sonar images, these fish schools were seen to exhibit an apparent change of school shape and behavior. Therefore, the evaluation method of fish school behavior using six characteristic parameters indicating fish school shape and behavior by sonar image processing is useful.

Recently, the improvement of computational processing ability due to the rapid development of computing technology has greatly advanced the field of artificial intelligence, and research to apply it in various domains is active. In particular, in the national defense field, attention is paid to intelligent recognition among machine learning techniques, and efforts are being made to develop object identification and monitoring systems using artificial intelligence. To this end, various image processing technologies and object identification algorithms are applied to create a model that can identify friendly and enemy weapon systems and personnel in real-time. In this paper, we conducted image processing and object identification focused on tanks among various weapon systems. We initially conducted processing the tanks' image using a convolutional neural network, a deep learning technique. The feature map was examined and the important characteristics of the tanks crucial for learning were derived. Then, using YOLOv5 Network, a CNN-based object detection network, a model trained by labeling the entire tank and a model trained by labeling only the turret of the tank were created and the results were compared. The model and labeling technique we proposed in this paper can more accurately identify the type of tank and contribute to the intelligent recognition system to be developed in the future.

Tool wear is considered an important issue in manufacturing and engineering, as worn tools can negatively impact productivity and product quality. Given that the wear status of tools plays a decisive role in the production process, measuring tool wear is a key task. Consequently, there is significant attention in manufacturing fields on the precise measurement of tool wear. Current domestic methods for measuring wear are limited in terms of speed and efficiency, with traditional methods being time-consuming and reliant on subjective evaluation. To address these issues, we developed a measurement module implementing the DeepContour algorithm, which uses image processing technology for rapid measurement and evaluation of tool wear. This algorithm accurately extracts the tool's outline, assesses its condition, determines the degree of wear, and proves more efficient than existing, subjective, and time-consuming methods. The main objective of this paper is to design and apply in practice an algorithm and measurement module that can measure and evaluate tool wear using image processing technology. It focuses on determining the degree of wear by extracting the tool's outline, assessing its condition, and presenting the measured value to the operator.

With the advent of the information society, image restoration technology has aroused considerable interest. Guided image filtering is more effective in suppressing noise in homogeneous regions, but its edge-preserving property is poor. As such, the critical part of guided filtering lies in the selection of the guided image. The result of the Expected Patch Log Likelihood (EPLL) method maintains a good structure, but it is easy to produce the ladder effect in homogeneous areas. According to the complementarity of EPLL with guided filtering, we propose a method of coupling EPLL and guided filtering for image de-noising. The EPLL model is adopted to construct the guided image for the guided filtering, which can provide better structural information for the guided filtering. Meanwhile, with the secondary smoothing of guided image filtering in image homogenization areas, we can improve the noise suppression effect in those areas while reducing the ladder effect brought about by the EPLL. The experimental results show that it not only retains the excellent performance of EPLL, but also produces better visual effects and a higher peak signal-to-noise ratio by adopting the proposed method.

본 논문에서는 카메라의 조명궤적과 화상내의 광휘점 (highlight) 영역의 화소들이 형성하는 색도좌표 군집에 대한 근사된 직선과의 교점을 카메라 촬영 장면에서의 조명색으로 결정하는, 카메라 촬영 장면의 조명색을 화상으로부터 직접 추정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방법은 카메라의 조명에 대한 반응 특성을 사전 정보로 제공함으로써 기존의 화상내의 광휘점 정보망을 이용하던 방법에 비해 더욱 정확한 조명색 추정을 가능하게 한다.

According to the image level definition for KOMPSAT-2 in KOMPSAT-2 Ground Station Specification, the level 0 is frame formatted, unprocessed data at full resolution; any and all communications artifacts (e.g., synchronization frames, communications headers) removed. The level 0 is used for two purposes: 1) exchange of imagery between image receiving & processing element (IRPE), and 2) image transfer from the Receiving & Archiving Subsystem to Search & Processing Subsystem. On-board processing of imagery data of KOMPSAT-2 includes JPEG-like compression and encryption besides conventional CCSDS packetization. The encryption is used to secure imagery data from any intervention during downlink and compression allows real-time downlink of image data reducing data rate produced from the camera. While developing ground receiving system for KOMPSAT-2, it was necessarily to define level 0 products. In this paper, we will suggest level 0 product definition for KOMPSAT-2 and explain reasons of the decisions made. The key factor used while defining the level 0 products is the efficiency of whole ground receiving system. The latter half of the paper will explain the implementation of software that generates level 0 products. The necessary steps to produce level 0 products will be explained, and the performance achieved will be presented.
