In this paper, we propose a new vision-based fire detection method for a real-life application. Most previous vision-based methods using color information and temporal variation of pixel produce frequent false alarms because they used a lot of heuristic features. Furthermore there is also computation delay for accurate fire detection. To overcome these problems, we first detected candidated fire regions by using background modeling and color model of fire. Then we made probabilistic models of fire by using a fact that fire pixel values of consecutive frames are changed constantly and applied them to a Bayesian Network. In this paper we used two level Bayesian network, which contains the intermediate nodes and uses four skewnesses for evidence at each node. Skewness of R normalized with intensity and skewnesses of three high frequency components obtained through wavelet transform. The proposed system has been successfully applied to many fire detection tasks in real world environment and distinguishes fire from moving objects having fire color.

Selectivity estimation techniques in query optimization have been used in commercial databases and histograms are popularly used for the selectivity estimation. Recently, the techniques for spatio-temporal databases have been restricted to existing temporal and spatial databases. In addition, the selectivity estimation techniques focused on time-series data such as moving objects. It is also impossible to estimate selectivity for range queries with a time interval. Therefore, we construct two histograms, CMH (current multidimensional histogram) and PMH (past multidimensional histogram), to estimate the selectivity of multidimensional sequence data in spatio-temporal databases and propose effective selectivity estimation methods using the histograms. Furthermore, we solve a problem about the range query using our proposed histograms. We evaluated the effectiveness of histograms for range queries with a time interval through various experimental results.

Since PAN(panchromatic) and MS(multispectral) imagery of pushbroom scanner have the offset between PAN and MS CCD(charge coupled device) in the focal plane, PAN and MS images are acquired at different time and angle. Since clouds are fast moving objects, they should lead mis-registration problem with wrong matching points on clouds. The registration of cloudy imagery to recognize and remove the contamination of clouds can be categorized into three classes: (1) cloud is considered as nose and removed (2) employing multi-spectral imagery (3) using multi-temporal imagery. In this paper, method (1) and (3) are implemented and analysed with cloudy pushbroom scanner images.

In this paper, we propose a Motion Vector-based Particle Filter(MVPF) for object tracking on bitstreams and a object tracking system using the MVPF. The MVPF uses motion vectors to both the transition and the observation models of a general particle filter to improve the accuracy while maintaining the number of particles. In the proposed object tracking system, the state of the target object can be predicted using the histogram of motion vectors extracted from the bitstream. In terms of precision, F-measure and IOU(Intersection Of Union), the proposed method is about 30%, 17%, and 17% better on average, respectively, in MPEG test sequences and VOT2013 sequences. Furthermore, When the tracking results are displayed in box form for subjective performance evaluation, the proposed method can track moving objects more robust than the conventional methods in all test sequences.

This paper proposes color segmentation for detecting missing persons in a smart lighting system using radar and camera sensors. Recently, smart lighting systems built-in radar and cameras have been efficient in saving energy and searching for missing persons, simultaneously. In smart lighting systems, radar detects moving objects and then the lights turn on and camera records. The video recorded is useful to find out missing persons. The color of their clothes worn in missing persons is one of critical hints to look for missing persons. Therefore, color segmentation is an effective means for detecting the color of their clothes. In this paper, during the color segmentation step, the ROI(Region of interest) setting based on the size of an object is applied and the background is reduced. According to experimental results, the color segmentation has good accuracy of more than 97%.

The proposed algorithm is to achieve the robust optical flow detection which is applicable for the case that the outlier rate is over 80%. If the outlier rate of optical flows is over 30%, the discrimination between the inliers and outlier with the conventional algorithm is very difficult. The proposed algorithm is to overcome such difficulty with three steps of grouping algorithm; 1) constructing the 2D histogram with two axies of the lengths and the directions of optical flows. 2) sorting the number of optical flows in each bin of the two-dimensional histogram in the descending order and removing some bins with lower number of optical flows than threshold. 3) increasing the resolution of the two-dimensional histogram if the number of optical flows in a specific bin is over 20% and decreasing the resolution if the number of optical flows is less than 10%. Such processing is repeated until the number of optical flows falls into the range of 10%-20% in all the bins. The proposed algorithm works well on the different kinds of images with many of wrong optical flows. Experimental results are included.

The need for rapid and accurate measurement of 3-dimensional objects is increasing due to the paradigmatic shift in manufacturing from mass production to small batch production. A three dimensional measurement technique which can provide the dimensional information of the object manufactured or to be manufactured has been developed. This method is based on phase shifting moire topology. Digital-Micromirror-Device (DMD) has been used in generating phase shifting moire fringes. And the mechanically moving optical components used for phase shifting, which might result in measurement errors, have been replaced by the DMD. Inherent $2\pi$-ambiguity problem, occurring in the calculation of phase from the light intensity distribution due to the nature of arctangent function, has been overcome by adapting the phase unwrapping method. The advantage of this technique is the easy change of the range and the resolution of the measurement by simply changing the computer generated grid pattern with the appropriate combination of projection lens of various focal length.

Interactive broadcasting service using wired/wireless Internet return channel has strong ripple effect. It allows the audiences to participate actively to the program they are watching, and communicating. This paper develops an authoring tool that makes an object-formed interactive advertisement from extracted areas of the advertising object the user specified in TV programs. In the authoring tool, the advertisement producer specifies the target object subjectively and the selected object keeps moving here and there repeatedly. Therefore, it is hard to make an object-formed interactive advertisement with existing tools. This paper suggests sketch-based interface technique for extracting advertising objects, and also provide evaluation functions to correct any sketch error. This paper also converts the area of object into MPEG-4 BIFS codes for authoring the object-formed interactive advertisement.

Computing environment is evolving rapidly to ubiquitous environment. It thus makes people access and utilize any resource on the move and makes location of objects rise to the rank of the most important information. However provision of location information is too restrictive in small environments such as a home or building. In this paper we propose a home entertainment system which supports user mobility based on sensor networks and distributed devices. The proposed system estimates a user location by using signal strength received from Bluetooth ad-hoc networks. This estimated location information can tell which device a user can take advantage of while moving. In order to prove possibility of user mobility support, the system is implemented on our UPnP A/V framework home entertainment system to provide content streaming and the result shows that a provision of service for mobile users could be possible in small ubiquitous computing environments.

FOD is a generic term for substances with potential threats that can pose a fatal risk to aircraft. Therefore, FOD should be noted in all areas of the airport. Especially, the method of detecting and collecting FOD in runway and aircraft movements is very low efficiency and economical efficiency of airport operation, so it is essential to develop FOD automatic detection system suitable for domestic environment. As part of the aviation safety technology development project, the development of an automatic detection system for foreign matter in the moving area of the aircraft inside the airport is underway. In this paper, it is confirmed that EO / IR camera is used for detection of foreign objects at Taean Airfield of Hanseo University. EO camera is used during the day and IR camera is used at night.
