Speckle noise reduction for ultrasound CT image using morphological adaptive median filtering based on edge preservation is presented in this paper. Speckle noise is multiplicative feature and causes ultrasound image to degrade widely from transducer. An input image is classified into edge region and homogeneous region in preprocessing. The speckle is reduced by morphological operation on the 2D gray scale by using convolution and correlation, and edges are preserved. The adaptive median is processed to reduce an impulse noise to preserve edges. As the result, MAM of the proposed method enhances the image to about 10% in comparison with Winner filter by Edge Preservation Index and PSNR, and 10% to only adaptive median filtering.

본 논문에서는 Full 하드웨어 기반 베이스라인 프로파일 레벨 3규격 H.264 인코더 코덱에서 사용할 수 있는 Direct Memory Access (DMA)를 설계하였다. 설계된 모듈은 CMOS Image Sensor(CIS)로부터 영상을 입력받아 메모리에 저장한 후 인코더 코덱 모듈의 동작에 맞춰 원영상과 참조영상을 각각 한 매크로블록씩 메모리에서 읽어 공급 또는 저장하며, 인코더는 한 매크로블록씩 처리하는데 660 cycle이 소요된다. 설계한 구조를 검증하기 위해 JM 9.4와 같은 reference Encoder C를 개발하였으며, Encoder C로부터 test vector를 추출하여 설계한 회로를 검증하였다.

A realization for image distortion correction processing system with DSP processor is presented in this paper. The image distortion correcting algorithm is realized by DSP processor for focusing on more real time processing than image quality. The lens and camera distortion coefficients are processed by YCbCr Lookup Tables and the correcting algorithm is applied to reverse mapping method for geometrical transform. The system experimentation results in the processing time about 34.6 msec on $720{\times}480$ curved image at 150 degree visual range.

Usually, spatial information can be incorporated into histograms by taking histograms of a multiresolution image. For these reasons, many researchers are interested in multiresolution histogram processing. If the relation and sensitivity of the multiresolution images are well combined without loss of information, we can obtain satisfactory results in several fields of image processing including histogram equalization, specification and pattern matching. In this paper, we propose a multiresolution histogram specification method that improves the accuracy of histogram specification. The multiresolution decomposition technique is used in order to overcome the unique feature of a histogram specification affected by a quantization error of a digitalized image. The histogram specification is processed after the reduction of image resolution in order to enhance the accuracy of the results by histogram specification methods. The experimental results show that the proposed method enhances the accuracy of specification compared to conventional methods.

Images taken from outdoor are degraded quality by fog or haze, etc. In this paper, we propose a method that provides the visibility improved images through fog or haze removal. We proposed haze removal method that uses brightness transform based on atmospheric scatter coefficient rate with local histogram equalization. To calculate the transmission rate that indicate fog rate in original image, we use atmospheric scatter coefficient rate based on quadratic equations about haze model. And primary brightness transformed image can be obtained by using the obtained transmission rate. Also we use local histogram equalization with proposed brightness transform for effectively image visibility enhancement. Unlike existing methods, our method can process real-time with stable and effect image visibility enhancement. Proposed method use only the luminance images processed by good performance surveillance systems because it represents the real-time processing is required, black-box, digital camera and multimedia equipment is applicable. Also because it shows good performance only with the luminance images processed, Surveillance systems, black boxes, digital cameras, and multimedia devices etc, that require real-time processing can be applied.

현재, 디지털 시대의 급속 발전과 함께 멀티미디어 서비스에 대한 수요가 증가되고 있다. 영상 데이터는 다양한 잡음에 의해 훼손되며, 주로 AWGN, salt and pepper 잡음, 이 두 잡음이 혼합된 복합잡음 등이 대표적이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 잡음 판단을 통해 AWGN 및 salt and pepper 잡음으로 분류하여 처리한다. AWGN인 경우, 공간 가중치 필터 및 화소 변화 가중치 필터의 출력을 합성하여 처리하며, 국부 마스크의 표준편차에 따라 합성 가중치를 다르게 적용한다. salt and pepper 잡음인 경우, 3차원 스플라인 보간법 및 국부 히스토그램 가중치 필터를 합성하여 처리하며, 국부 마스크의 salt and pepper 잡음 밀도에 따라 합성 가중치를 다르게 적용하여 처리하는 다중 영상복원 필터 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

A 1-chip high quality binarizing VLSI image processor (which has 8 bit ADC. 6 bit flash ADC, 15K standard cell, and 1K word ROM) based on 10 MIPS 16 bit DSP is implemented for FAX. This image processor(IP) performs image pre-processing. image quality improvement in copying and sending mode, and mixed image processing based on the fuzzy theory. And smoothing in sub-scan direction is applied for normal receiving mode data so the received data is enhanced like fine mode data. Each algorithm is processed with the same type of image processing window and 2-D image processing is implemented with a 1-D line buffer. The fabricated chip is applied to a FAX machine and image quality improvement is verified.

An image encryption scheme based on the quick response (QR) code as a data container has aroused wide interest due to the lossless recovery of the decrypted image. In this paper, we apply this method to multi-image encryption. However, since the decrypted image is affected by crosstalk noise, the number of multi-image encryptions is severely limited. To solve this problem, we analyzed the performance of QR code as a data container, and processed the decrypted QR code using the proposed method, so that the number of multi-image encryptions is effectively increased. Finally, we implemented a large image (256 × 256) encryption and decryption.
