Camera calibration is an important part of machine vision and close-range photogrammetry. Since current calibration methods fail to obtain ideal internal and external camera parameters with limited computing resources on mobile terminals efficiently, this paper proposes an improved fast camera calibration method for mobile terminals. Based on traditional camera calibration method, the new method introduces two-order radial distortion and tangential distortion models to establish the camera model with nonlinear distortion items. Meanwhile, the nonlinear least square L-M algorithm is used to optimize parameters iteration, the new method can quickly obtain high-precise internal and external camera parameters. The experimental results show that the new method improves the efficiency and precision of camera calibration. Terminals simulation experiment on PC indicates that the time consuming of parameter iteration reduced from 0.220 seconds to 0.063 seconds (0.234 seconds on mobile terminals) and the average reprojection error reduced from 0.25 pixel to 0.15 pixel. Therefore, the new method is an ideal mobile terminals camera calibration method which can expand the application range of 3D reconstruction and close-range photogrammetry technology on mobile terminals.

This paper analyzed time delay and phase distortion that generates in multipath and the degree of distortion due to power attenuation factor when UWB system is applied at indoor environment and the effects of indoor structure and material on distortion factors. Based on these distortion factors, channel model similar to actual environment is mathematically described and multipath and the degree of signal distortion generated when UWB system is applied to random environment is tested through channel model simulation and varies distortion factor that UWB system needs to consider in different indoor environment is analyzed.

In a multicell box structure, distortional warping normal stress due to warping of cross section and transverse bending normal stress of walls due to distortion of cross section may consider as significant stresses unless distortion of box section is appropriately restricted. Nevertheless, during the past decades, no evaluation of distortional warping and transverse bending resistances for the multicell box section has been performed owing to geometric complexity and Insufficient information with respect to the distortion of multicell box section. The objective of present study is to evaluate the distortional warping and transverse bending resistances for the distortion of multicell box section and to validate the resistances through box girder analyses using multicell box beam element developed and conventional shell element. This developed box beam element has nine degrees of freedom per node including the effect of distortion.

Lens distortion is inevitable phenomenon in machine vision system. More and more distortion phenomenon is occurring in order to choice of lens for minimizing cost and system size. As shown above, correction of lens distortion is critical issue. However previous lens correction methods using camera model have problem such as nonlinear property and complicated operation. And recent lens correction methods using neural network also have accuracy and efficiency problem. In this study, I propose new algorithms for correction of lens distortion. Distorted image is divided based on the distortion quantity using k-means. And each divided image region is corrected by using neural network. As a result, the proposed algorithms have better accuracy than previous methods without image division.

We propose an interpolation method considering barrel distortion of fisheye lens using nearest pixels on a corrected image. The correction of barrel distortion comprises coordinate transformation and interpolation. This paper focuses on interpolation. The proposed interpolation method uses nearest four coordinates on a corrected image rather than on a distorted image unlike existing techniques. Experimental results show that both subjective and objective image qualities are improved.

Key frame extraction has been recognized as one of tile important research issues in video information retrieval. Although progress has been made in key frame extraction, the existing approaches do not evaluate the importance of extracted frame Quantitatively, and Dey are computationally expensive or ineffective. In this Paper, we introduce a new 미해rithm for key frame extraction using shot coverage and distortion. The algorithm finds significant key frames from candidate key frames. When selecting the candidate frames, the coverage rate to the total frames from each frame is computed by using the difference between the adjacent frames in tile shot. The frames within 10$\%$ from the top are selected as the candidates. Then, by comfuting the distortion rate of the candidates against all frames, pick the frames which arc most representative are selected. The performance of the proposed algorithm has been verified by a statistical test. Experiments show that more than 13-50$\%$ improvement has been obtained by the proposed algorithm compared to the existing methods.

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.

In a spatially interlaced stereoscopic (SIS) three-dimensional (3D) display to be realized by providing the observer a part of left-eye/right-eye images, a loss of information can be perceived due to the un-shown part of each image. In order to resolve that problem, an improved SIS 3D display is proposed to deliver the images without loss of information to the observer using a time-multiplexing scheme. However, that time-multiplexing SIS also has a problem of luminance distortion when the desired luminance is not shown due to an insufficient response of the liquid crystal cell. In this paper, we propose a new method by optimizing the image data to show correct luminance with minimum distortion.

In a free-space coherent optical communication system, wavefront distortion is frequently beyond the correction range of the adaptive-optics system after the laser has propagated through the atmospheric turbulence. A method of residual wavefront correction is proposed, to improve the quality of coherent optical communication in free space. The relationship between the wavefront phase expanded by Zernike polynomials and the mixing efficiency is derived analytically. The influence of Zernike-polynomial distortion on the bit-error rate (BER) of a phase-modulation system is analyzed. From the theoretical analysis, the BER of the system changes periodically, due to the periodic extension of wavefront distortion. Experimental results show that the BER after correction is reduced from 10^-1 to 10^-4; however, when the closed-loop control algorithm with residual correction is used, the experimental results show that the BER is reduced from 10^-1 to 10^-7.

An image attention model and its application to image quality assessment are discussed in this paper. The attention model is based on rarity quantification, which is related to self-information to attract the attention in an image. It is relatively simpler than the others but results in taking more consideration of global contrasts between a pixel and the whole image. The visual attention model is used to develop a local distortion predictor, named color visual differences predictor (CVDP), in color images in order to effectively detect luminance and color distortions.
