In this paper, we examine whether the 3D image experience through a light-field display device showed the difference in the arousal of the user compared with the 2D image experience. For our experiment, the Looking Glass^TM (LG) was used as a lightfield display device that provided 3D images, and 2D images were provided by digital and printed images. The subject's facial behavior during each media experience was recorded for analysis and the degree of arousal was measured by FaceReader^TM. As a result, the first image presented in the first order among the three kinds of images showed that there was a statistical difference in the degree of arousal between the three media. However, no significant differences were found between the three media in the other images. This may be because the arousal did not increase from the experience of the second image through the LG, owing to habituation. In conclusion, the 3D imaging experience may appear in the beginning, but does not continue.

Unlike aerial images covering small region, satellite data show high potential to detect urban scale geospatial changes. The change detection using satellite images can be carried out using single image or stereo images. The single image approach is based on radiometric differences between two images of different times. It has limitations to detect building level changes when the significant occlusion and relief displacement appear in the images. In contrast, stereo satellite data can be used to generate DSM (Digital Surface Model) that contain information of relief-corrected objects. Therefore, they have high potential for the object change detection. Therefore, we carried out a study for the change detection over an urban area using stereo satellite data of two different times. First, the RPC correction was performed for two DSMs generation via stereo image matching. Then, D-DSM (Differential DSM) was generated by differentiating two DSMs. The D-DSM was used for the topographic change detection and the performance was checked by applying different height thresholds to D-DSM.

We report on the growth and characterization of the nano- and micro scale GaN structures selectively grown on the vertex of GaN stripes using the metal organic vapor phase epitaxy method and conventional photolithography technique. The triangular shaped nano- and micro GaN structures which have semi-polar {11-22} facets were formed only on the vertex of the lower GaN stripes. Crystalline defects reduction was observed by transmission electron microscopy for upper GaN stripes. We also have grown the InGaN/GaN multi-quantum well structures on the semi-polar facets of the upper GaN stripes. Cathodoluminescence images were taken at 366, 412 and 555 nm related to GaN band edge, InGaN/GaN layer and defects, respectively.

Underwater color images suffer from low visibility and color cast effects caused by light attenuation by water and floating particles. This study applied single image enhancement techniques to enhance the quality of underwater images and compared their performance with real underwater images taken in Korean waters. Dark channel prior (DCP), gradient transform, image fusion, and generative adversarial networks (GAN), such as cycleGAN and underwater GAN (UGAN), were considered for single image enhancement. Their performance was evaluated in terms of underwater image quality measure, underwater color image quality evaluation, gray-world assumption, and blur metric. The DCP saturated the underwater images to a specific greenish or bluish color tone and reduced the brightness of the background signal. The gradient transform method with two transmission maps were sensitive to the light source and highlighted the region exposed to light. Although image fusion enabled reasonable color correction, the object details were lost due to the last fusion step. CycleGAN corrected overall color tone relatively well but generated artifacts in the background. UGAN showed good visual quality and obtained the highest scores against all figures of merit (FOMs) by compensating for the colors and visibility compared to the other single enhancement methods.

본 논문에서는 구조화된 격자 패턴 발생기를 이용하여 카메라 시야로부터 가려진 인체의 완전한 3차원 정보를 정합하기 위하여 턴테이블 위에 놓인 인체를 4방향에서 영상을 획득한 후 각 영상을 정합하는 새로운 알고리즘을 소개한다. 다각형 망으로 표시된 정합될 두 영상은 3차원 좌표 값의 급격한 변화가 없고 주사 방향이 한 방향이기 때문에 좌표축에 따라 가중치가 다른 최소 거리 기반 가중치 이분 분할 매칭 법을 사용하여 정합한다. 완전한 3차원 체형 정보를 획득하기 위하여, 획득한 영상이 4개이기 때문에 이런 과정들을 3번 반복한다. 제안된 방법은 기존의 분지 한정법, 동적 계획법, 헝가리언 법에 비해 매칭 정확도는 조금 낮지만 탐색 시간을 200 - 300% 줄일 수 있는 장점이 있다.

Monostatic/Bistatic inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) images are two-dimensional radar cross section (RCS) distributions of a target. When there are many targets in a single radar beam, ISAR images are generated with targets overlapped, so it is difficult to perform the targets identification using the trained database. In addition, it is inefficient to perform target identification using only single monostatic and bistatic ISAR images separately because each method has its own advantages and weaknesses. Therefore, this paper analyzes multiple targets identification performances using monostatic/bistatic ISAR images and proposes a method of identification through fusion of two ISAR images. To identify multiple targets, we use image combination technique using trained single target images. Simulation results show effectiveness of proposed method.

Underwater operating platforms face difficulties regarding power supply and communications. To overcome these difficulties, this study proposes a hybrid surface and underwater vehicle (HSUV) and presents the development of the platform, control algorithms, and results of field tests. The HSUV is capable of supplying reliable power to the unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) and obtaining data in real time by using a tether cable between the UUV and the unmanned surface vehicle (USV). The HSUV uses global positioning system (GPS) and ultra-short base line sensors to determine the relative location of the UUV. Way point (WP) and dynamic positioning (DP) algorithms were developed to enable the HSUV to perform unmanned exploration. After reaching the target point using the WP algorithm, the DP algorithm enables USV to maintain position while withstanding environmental disturbances. To ensure the navigation performance at sea, performance tests of GPS, attitude/heading reference system, and side scan sonar were conducted. Based on these results, manual operation, WP, and DP tests were conducted at sea. WP and DP test results and side scan sonar images during the sea trials are presented.

In autonomous navigation systems, the need for fast and accurate image processing using deep learning and advanced sensor technologies is paramount. These systems rely heavily on the ability to process and interpret visual data swiftly and precisely to ensure safe and efficient navigation. Despite the critical importance of such capabilities, there has been a noticeable lack of research specifically focused on ship image classification for maritime applications. This gap highlights the necessity for more in-depth studies in this domain. In this paper, we aim to address this gap by presenting a comprehensive comparative study of ship image classification using two distinct neural network models: the Feedforward Neural Network (FNN) and the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Our study involves the application of both models to the task of classifying ship images, utilizing a dataset specifically prepared for this purpose. Through our analysis, we found that the Convolutional Neural Network demonstrates significantly more effective performance in accurately classifying ship images compared to the Feedforward Neural Network. The findings from this research are significant as they can contribute to the advancement of core source technologies for maritime autonomous navigation systems. By leveraging the superior image classification capabilities of convolutional neural networks, we can enhance the accuracy and reliability of these systems. This improvement is crucial for the development of more efficient and safer autonomous maritime operations, ultimately contributing to the broader field of autonomous transportation technology.

A panoramic-PIV system has been constructed for the analysis of the airflows in a room. Smoke is used as seeding particles and are visualized by a pulsed laser (Nd-Yag, 120 mJ). Panoramic images have been obtained by an image composition process using the two images obtained by the two cameras $(1k\times1k)$ that are viewing the wide measurement areas. Velocity vector fields have been obtained by the grey-level cross-correlation PIV method. Three room models $(L{\times}W{\times}H[mm^3],\;500\times500\times250,\;350\times350\times175,\;250\times250\times125)$ have been tested. The experimental results have proven that the constructed panoramic-PIV system can be used as a useful tool for analyzing the airflow characteristics in the room models.
