Edge is a characteristic information that can easily obtain the size, direction and location of objects included in the image, and the edge detection is utilized as a preprocess processing in various image processing application sectors such as object detection and object recognition, etc. For the conventional edge detection methods, there are Sobel, Prewitt and Roberts. These existing edge detection methods are easy to implement but the edge detection characteristics are somewhat insufficient as fixed weighted mask is applied. Therefore, in order to compensate the problems of existing edge detection methods, in this paper, an edge detection algorithm was proposed after applying the weighted value according to the standard deviation and means within the local mask.

How much and where vehicles exist is an essential element in the implementation of a GeoAI-based urban environment that reflects traffic information. In this paper, we trained vehicle data using Mask R-CNN that deep learning model useful for object detection and extraction, and verified vehicle detection in actual aerial images taken with drones.

Edge detection is one of image processing techniques applied for a variety of purposes in a number of areas and it is used as a necessary pretreatment process in most applications. In the conventional edge detection methods, there are Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts and LoG, etc using a fixed weights mask. Since conventional edge detection methods apply the images to the fixed weights mask, the edge detection characteristics appear somewhat insufficient. Therefore in this study, an algorithm for detecting the edge is proposed by applying the cross mask based on the center pixel and up, down, left and right mask based on the surrounding pixels of center pixel in order to solve these problems. And in order to assess the performance of proposed algorithm, it was compared with a conventional Sobel, Roberts, Prewitt and LoG edge detection methods.

본 논문에서는 mask R-CNN의 이미지 세그먼테이션(Image Segmentation) 기법을 이용하여 철도의 선로를 식별하고 분류하는 방법을 제안한다. mask R-CNN의 이미지 세그먼테이션은 바운딩 박스(Bounding Box)를 통해 이미지에서 객체를 식별하는 R-CNN 알고리즘과는 달리 픽셀 단위로 관심 있는 객체를 검출하고 분류하는 기법으로서 오브젝트 디텍션(Object Detection)보다 더욱 정교한 객체 식별이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 Pascal VOC 형태의 고속철도 데이터 24,205셋의 데이터를 전처리하고 MS COCO 데이터셋으로 변환하여, MMDetection의 mask R-CNN을 통해 픽셀 단위로 철도선로를 식별하고 정상/불량 상태를 분류하는 연구를 수행하였다. 선행연구에서는 YOLO를 활용하여 Polygon형태의 좌표를 바운딩 박스로 분류하였는데, 본 연구에서는 mask R-CNN을 활용함으로써 철도 선로를 더욱 정교하게 식별하였으며 정상/불량의 상태 분류는 YOLO와 유사한 성능을 보였다.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected the world seriously. Every person is required for wearing a mask properly in a public area to prevent spreading the virus. However, many people are not wearing a mask properly. In this paper, we propose an efficient mask detection system. In our proposed system, we first detect the faces of input images using YOLOv5 and classify them as the one of three scene complexity classes (Simple, Moderate, and Complex) based on the number of detected faces. After that, the image is fed into the Faster-RCNN with the one of three ResNet (ResNet-18, 50, and 101) as backbone network depending on the scene complexity for detecting the face area and identifying whether the person is wearing the mask properly or not. We evaluated our proposed system using public mask detection datasets. The results show that our proposed system outperforms other models.

An image edge has been utilized as preprocessing procedure in various field such as object detection, object recognition. there are Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, Laplacian as conventional edge detection methods. existing methods are implement is simple, but edge detection characteristics is insufficient in impulse noise area. Therefore, to compensate the defect of conventional methods, in this paper, an edge detection algorithm using modified mask is proposed.

In the modern society, image processing is utilized in various fields. Edge detection used for image processing as such is essential for most of the applications. Accordingly, there are studies conducted both in and out of Korea in order to detect edge. Representative edge detection methods include Sobel, Prewitt and Roberts. However, these methods are rather limited when it comes to the edge detection characteristics when used for the image with damaged AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise). Thus, this paper presented edge detection method utilizing local mask in order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing methods.

For edge detection methods, there are Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts and Canny edge detector, and these methods have insufficient detection characteristics in the image corrupted by the impulse noise. Therefore in this paper, in order to improve these disadvantages of the previous methods and to effectively detect the edge in the impulse noise environment, using the $5{\times}5$ mask, the noise factors within the $3{\times}3$ mask based on the central pixel is determined, and depending on its status, for noise-free it is processed as is, and if noise is found, by obtaining the estimated mask using the adjacent pixels of each factor, an algorithm that detects the edge is proposed.

3D object detection pipelines often incorporate RGB-based object detection methods such as YOLO, which detects the object classes and bounding boxes from the RGB image. However, in complex environments where objects are heavily cluttered, bounding box approaches may show degraded performance due to the overlapping bounding boxes. Mask based methods such as Mask R-CNN can handle such situation better thanks to their detailed object masks, but they require much longer time for data preparation compared to bounding box-based approaches. In this paper, we present a 3D object recognition pipeline which uses either the YOLO or Mask R-CNN real-time object detection algorithm, K-nearest clustering algorithm, mask reduction algorithm and finally Principal Component Analysis (PCA) alg orithm to efficiently detect 3D poses of objects in a complex environment. Furthermore, we also present an improved YOLO based 3D object detection algorithm that uses a prioritized heightmap clustering algorithm to handle overlapping bounding boxes. The suggested algorithms have successfully been used at the Artificial-Intelligence Robot Challenge (ARC) 2021 competition with excellent results.

It is an important issue to detect automatically whether a mask is worn or not for corona prevention. It is known that mask wearing detection can be solved by learning the face data set. However, the search for whether a person is wearing a mask can be detected in a simpler way using OpenCV. In this paper, we describe that it is possible to easily detect whether a single person is wearing a mask or not with a general PC camera using OpenCV learning data results and simple OpenCV functions. Through experiments, the proposed method was shown to be effective.
