This paper presents an image quality enhancement algorithm for dark image acquired under poor lighting condition. Various retinex algorithms which are human perception-based image processing methods were proposed to solve this problem. Although MSR(Multi-Scale Retinex) among these algorithm works well under most lighting condition, it shows color degradation because their separate nonlinear processing of RGB color channels. To compensate for the loss of the color, MSRCR(Multi-Scale Retinex with Color Restoration) was proposed. However, it requires high computational load and has additional parameters that need to be adjusted according to input image. In order to overcome this problem, a new retinex algorithm based on MSR is proposed in this paper. The proposed method consists of V channel MSR, saturation correction, and separate contrast enhancement process. Experimental results show that the subjective and objective image quality of the proposed method better than those of the conventional methods.

얼굴인식기술이 인증 및 보안을 위한 도구로 활용되고 있지만 입력영상의 상태, 즉 조명환경에 따라 적용할 수 있는 범위가 제약적일 수밖에 없다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 제약을 최소화하기 위해 측면과 후면조명 등의 불규칙한 조명환경에서 획득한 입력영상에서 얼굴의 특징을 구분하여 얼굴영상임을 확인하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 에지차영상을 얼굴특징이 두드러지도록 전처리한 후, X와 Y축의 프로파일을 이용하여 얼굴영역을 예측하고 영역 내의 밝기분포를 이용하여 눈, 코, 입 등의 얼굴특징이 놓일 수 있는 수평영역을 분리한다. 수평영역들은 눈, 코, 입을 포함할 수 있는 영역의 그룹으로 나누어지고 각 그룹에서 코와 입, 그리고 눈의 순서로 특징들을 검출한다. 얼굴여부는 검출된 특징들의 구조적인 관계를 검증하여 확인한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 배경색상이나 조명의 방향과 색상 등으로 인해 얼굴의 형태와 특징이 결여된 입력영상에서도 매우 안정적으로 적용됨을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

In this study, a mock powder room was installed with variable LED lighting environments in order to conduct the experiments. The experimental conditions include luminaire type, illuminance ratio, vertical illuminance and color temperatures. The evaluation methods used were the Semantic Differential Method and a subjective evaluation on activities through observation. The SD evaluation result factor analysis categorizes ideas into three factors: brightness, emotion, and glare. The vertical bracket or the combined luminaire (luminous panel+ Vertical bracket) has better brightness than luminous panel. A vertical illuminance of 500lx is not significantly difference as compared to 600lx, allowing 500lx to be considered standard. The emotional atmosphere is evaluated as being better at lower color temperature. The luminous panel is the best for reducing glare while the vertical bracket is the worst. The best conditions differ according to the illuminance ratio of the luminous panel and vertical bracket. In the subjective evaluation (satisfaction with lighting environment, suitability to activity) the combined luminaire and 4000K received the best evaluation.

Due to optimal advances such as chromatic performance, durability, low power consumption, high efficiency, long-lifetime, and excellent environmental friendliness, white LEDs (WLEDs) are widely used in vehicle front lighting, backlighting, decorative lighting, street lighting, and even general lighting. In this paper, the remote packaging WLEDs (RP-WLEDs) with bi-layer red-emitting $Sr_2Si_5N_8:Eu^{2+}$ and yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor was proposed and investigated. The simulation results based on the MATLAB software and the commercial software Light Tools indicated that the color rendering index (CRI) of bi-layer phosphor RP-WLEDs had a significant increase. The CRI had a considerable increase from 72 to 94. In conclusion, the results showed that bi-layer red-emitting $Sr_2Si_5N_8:Eu^{2+}$ and yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor could be a prospective approach for manufacturing RP-WLEDs with enhanced optical properties.

3D 애니메이션의 화면에서 전해지는 분위기는 대부분 3D CG 라이팅의 설정에 따라 좌우 된다고 해도 과언이 아니다. 컴퓨터 그래픽의 맥락에서 라이팅은 예술적이고 기술적인 방법으로 디지털 씬(Scene)들을 비추는(밝히는) 과정이다. 그래서 관객은 화면에서 적절한 명쾌함과 분위기로 나타내고자 하는 감독의 의도가 무엇인지를 인지 할 수 있는 것이다. Lighting은 인간에 의해 창조 및 조작되는 빛과 색채의 미학으로서 장면들을 아름답고 조화롭게 만드는 역할을 한다. 또한 전달하고자하는 이야기와 표현하고자 하는 분위기를 상징적이고 은유적 기법으로 스타일화 한다. 그러므로 라이팅 스타일의 컨셉은 애니메이션의 특정한 상황이나 환경 그리고 아트 디렉션 밀접하게 연관되어진다. 그러나 불행히도 장면을 라이팅하는 작업공정에는 쉽게 할 수 있는 정해진 규칙이나 공식은 없다. 요컨대, 라이팅은 위치, 컬러, 농도, 그림자 영역과 범위를 포함하는 라이팅 셋업의 조건적 요소들로 애니메이션에서 보여 주고자하는 장면의 스타일을 결정짓는 데에 기여하지만, 그와 동시에 서정드라마냐 서스펜스냐 하이 드라마냐 와 같은 애니메이션의 장르와 장면의 스타일과 같은 전체적인 무드를 제시하는 예술적 측면을 간과해서는 않될 것이다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find out whether the color change of the LED light source has a significant effect on the beta wave activity of EEG in the learning state. Methods: The subjects of the experiment were 20 male and female college students between the ages of 19 and 25 who routinely perform their studies. In the created learning environment, the EEG change according to the change in the lighting color was measured while solving the Mensa thinking ability problem while sitting on a desk with LED lights installed on the top and a chair with a footrest to stabilize the legs. The light source consisted of 3 ready-made colors and 6 newly created colors. A total of 9 color light stimuli were given for 2 minutes each, and the EEG change of the subject was observed. After the experiment, the correlation was analyzed based on the mid-beta wave data recorded on the QEEG according to the color change of light and the Mensa problem score. Results: It was found that the activation of mid-beta waves was stimulated in the temporal lobes (T5, T3, T6, T4) and occipital lobes (O1, O2) of all subjects who focused on solving Mensa thinking problems. As a result of comparing the top 20% and the bottom 20% of problem solving scores, the upper group had no effect of lighting, while the lower group showed increased beta wave activity in response to color light stimulation in the order of T4, T6, and T5. Implications: It was confirmed that the color of light that activates the middle beta wave varies greatly depending on the subject's attention and learning ability, and it is judged that the color of light including the green wavelength is helpful in activating the middle beta wave in the group with low learning ability.

This paper investigates a method to improve the lighting performance of white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs), which are packaged using two separate remote phosphor layers, a yellow-emitting YAG:Ce phosphor layer and a red-emitting ${\alpha}-SrO{\cdot}3B_2O_3:Sm^{2+}$ phosphor layer. The thicknesses of these two layers are $800{\mu}m$ and $200{\mu}m$, respectively. Both of them are examined in conditions where the average correlated color temperatures (CCT) are 7700 K and 8500 K. For this two-layer model, the concentration of red phosphor is varied from 2% to 30% in the upper layer, while in the lower layer the yellow phosphor concentration is kept at 15%. It was found interestingly that the lighting properties such as color rendering index (CRI) and luminous flux are enhanced significantly, while the color uniformity is maintained in a relatively close range to the one of one-layer configuration (measured at the same correlated color temperature). Besides, the transmitted and reflected light of each phosphor layer are revised by combining Kubelka-Munk and Mie-Lorenz theories. Through analysis, it is demonstrated that the packaging configuration of two-layer remote phosphor that employs red-emitting ${\alpha}-SrO{\cdot}3B_2O_3:Sm^{2+}$ phosphor particles provides a practical solution for general WLEDs lighting.

LED lighting has an advantage of adjusting color temperature. This change of color temperature may derive change in behavioral and physiological responses of the visual perception for indoor environments. This research examined the changes of behavioral and physiological responses caused by the color temperature. The environment was configured that the indoor temperature was 20 degrees centigrade or less as the perceived uncomfortable environment in winter. Then, the comfortable sensation vote (CSV) and the results of 3-back working memory test were measured as behavioral responses. In addition, the Electrodermal Activity (EDA) and Electrocardiogram (ECG) were measured as the responses of autonomics nervous system (ANS) in the three conditions of color temperature (red: 3862K, white: 5052K, blue: 11,460K). As a result, behavioral responses were not significant by the condition of color temperature, but the tendency of occupants' physiological relaxation appeared in the blue color temperature condition compared with the white color temperature condition. Although the color temperature of LED lighting might be a small factor in terms of the characteristics of indoor environment, it suggests that the color temperature could have an impact on the physiological changes in the parasympathetic nervous system.
