본 논문에서는 교차로에 설치된 카메라를 이용하여 각 도로로 유입 유출되는 교통량을 동시에 측정할 수 있도록 하였으며, 측정한 데이터를 퍼지논리에 적용하여 녹색 신호를 제어하는 시스템을 제안한다. 기존의 퍼지논리를 이용한 신호등 제어 시스템은 신호대기 중인 차량 숫자를 측정하여 기반 데이터로 사용하였으나, 본 논문에서는 영상처리를 이용하여 측정한 교차로 유입 차량 수를 퍼지논리의 기반 데이터로 사용하여 심각한 교통 정체가 일어나기 전에 이를 미연에 방지 할 수 있는 신호 제어로직을 고안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 교통신호 자동 제어로직을 활용하여 교통정체가 일어나기 전에 각 도로간 교통량을 조절함으로써 교통 정체로 발생하는 운전자의 시간 낭비 및 에너지 낭비를 예방한다.

Up to the present studies of the car number recognition system, it is generally known to have serious problems such as relatively long processing time due to the excessive length of data extracted from the number plate based on the current image characteristics, and the image blurring with the physical damage of the brightness and darkness signals of the number plate caused by external impulses with many difficulties in the extraction of the highlighted numbers. In this Paper we used the characteristics firstly having a constant brightness of number plate, and a high density to the horizontal axis, and the influences of highlighted signal could be reduced by making reflections less through the polarized filter on the camera for any highlighted signal. For the more, the data processing time and the noise reduction are effectively implemented by using the wavelet transform of time-space scale with the considerations on the physical loss and processing time.

Tire noise is divided into two parts. One is pattern noise the other one is road noise. Pattern noise primarily occurs in over 500 Hz frequency but road noise occurs mainly in low frequency. It is important to develop a technology to predict the pattern noise at the design stage. Prediction technology of pattern noise has been developed by using image processing. Shape of tire pattern is computed by using imaging signal processing. Its results are different with the measured one. Therefore, the prediction of actual measured pattern noise is valuable. In the signal processing theory is applied to calculate the impulse response for the measurement environment. This impulse response used for the prediction of pattern noise by convolving this impulse response by the results of image processing of tire pattern.

This paper describes a method to estimate the noise power using the minimum statistics approach, which was originally proposed for audio processing. The proposed minimum statistics-based method separates a noisy image into multiple frequency bands using the three-level discrete wavelet transform. By assuming that the output of the high-pass filter contains both signal detail and noise, the proposed algorithm extracts the region of pure noise from the high frequency band using an appropriate threshold. The region of pure noise, which is free from the signal detail part and the DC component, is well suited for minimum statistics condition, where the noise power can be extracted easily. The proposed algorithm reduces the computational load significantly through the use of a simple processing architecture without iteration with an estimation accuracy greater than 90% for strong noise at 0 to 40dB SNR of the input image. Furthermore, the well restored image can be obtained using the estimated noise power information in parametric image restoration algorithms, such as the classical parametric Wiener or ForWaRD image restoration filters. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can estimate the noise power accurately, and is particularly suitable for fast, low-cost image restoration or enhancement applications.

An image authentication scheme for gray scale image through embedding a digital watermark by quantization of Integer Wavelet Transform (IWT) coefficients of the image is proposed in this paper. Proposed method is designed to detect modification of an image and to identify tampered location of the image. To embed the watermark mid-frequency band of a second level IWT was used. An approximation of the original image based on LL band was stored in LSB bits of the pixel data as a recovery mark for restoration of the image. Watermarked image has achieved a good PSNR of 40 dB compared to original cover image. Restored image quality was also very good with a PSNR of more than 35 dB compared to unmodified watermarked image even when 25% of the received image is cropped. Thus, the proposed method ensures a proper balance between the fidelity of the watermarked image and the quality of the restored image.

용접부 내에 존재하는 결함의 형태, 위치, 크기 등의 정보를 정량적으로 파악하기 위하여 초음파 탐상 검사가 많이 활용되는데, 최근 들어 용접부의 결함 탐상을 위해, 검사과정을 기계적 스캐너로 자동화한 자동 초음파 탐상 시스템이 많은 산업 분야에서 활용되고 있고, 특히 배관 용접부의 건전성 평가를 위한 비파괴안전진단에서 그 활용 폭이 커지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 배관 용접부의 자동 초음파 검사를 위한 알고리즘 구현과 결함 영상을 보정하여 주는 결함영상 처리 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 적용된 기법으로는 초음파 A-Scan 압축 알고리즘, Synthetic Aperture Focusing 알고리즘, 결함영상증폭 알고리즘과 이와 관련된 소프트웨어 설계 및 구현에 대하여 논한다.

In this paper, we propose a new method of automatic white balance which is one of the image signal processing techniques. Our method is conceptually based on gray world assumption. However, while previous methods generate linear results as multiplying pixel values by a gain, our method generates non-linear results using the feature of B-Spline curves. The two merits of deriving non-linear results are preventing AWB failure from transforming strong color of high level into wrong color and well preserving original contrast of an input image.

In this paper, we propose a high-speed, low-power complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) binary image sensor featuring a gate/body-tied (GBT) p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (PMOSFET)-type photodetector based on a double-tail comparator. The GBT photodetector forms a structure in which the floating gate (n+ polysilicon) and body of the PMOSFET are tied, and amplifies the photocurrent generated by incident light. The double-tail comparator compares the output signal of a pixel against a reference voltage and returns a binary signal, and it exhibits improved power consumption and processing speed compared with those of a conventional two-stage comparator. The proposed sensor has the advantages of a high signal processing speed and low power consumption. The proposed CMOS binary image sensor was designed and fabricated using a standard 0.18 ㎛ CMOS process.
