The present study was conducted to develop a Multi-dimensional Body Image Scale for Malaysian female adolescents. Data were collected among 328 female adolescents from a secondary school in Kuantan district, state of Pahang, Malaysia by using a self-administered questionnaire and anthropometric measurements. The self-administered questionnaire comprised multiple measures of body image, Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26; Gamer & Garfinkel, 1979) and Rosenberg Self-esteem Inventory (Rosenberg, 1965). The 152 items from selected multiple measures of body image were examined through factor analysis and for internal consistency. Correlations between Multi-dimensional Body Image Scale and body mass index (BMI), risk of eating disorders and self-esteem were assessed for construct validity. A seven factor model of a 62-item Multi-dimensional Body Image Scale for Malaysian female adolescents with construct validity and good internal consistency was developed. The scale encompasses 1) preoccupation with thinness and dieting behavior, 2) appearance and body satisfaction, 3) body importance, 4) muscle increasing behavior, 5) extreme dieting behavior, 6) appearance importance, and 7) perception of size and shape dimensions. Besides, a multidimensional body image composite score was proposed to screen negative body image risk in female adolescents. The result found body image was correlated with BMI, risk of eating disorders and self-esteem in female adolescents. In short, the present study supports a multi-dimensional concept for body image and provides a new insight into its multi-dimensionality in Malaysian female adolescents with preliminary validity and reliability of the scale. The Multi-dimensional Body Image Scale can be used to identify female adolescents who are potentially at risk of developing body image disturbance through future intervention programs.

Multi-view function is important to three-dimensional displays without dedicated glasses. It is the reason that the observers earnestly desire to change their positions freely. Multi-viewing is also principal to the reality of three-dimensional (3D) image displayed on the screen. The display of projection type has the advantage that the number of viewing points can be easily increased according to the number of projectors. The authors research on multi-view projection display with hologram screen. Powerful directionality of the diffracted beam from hologram screen is required unlike two-dimensional (2D) display. We developed a new method that all diffracted beams satisfied the same Bragg condition and became sufficiently bright to observe the 3D image under usual indoor light. The principle is based on the essential Bragg diffraction in the three-dimensional space. Owing to such three-dimensional Bragg diffraction we achieved an excellent hologram screen that could be multiple reconstructed in spite of single recording. This hologram screen is able to answer arbitrary numbers of viewing points within wide viewing zone. The distortion of 3D image becomes also sufficiently small with the method of dividing the cross angle between illumination and diffraction beam.

Recent developments in underwater image recognition methods have received large attention by the ocean engineering researchers. In this paper, an improved bi-dimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD) approach is employed to decompose the given underwater image into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and residual. We developed a joint algorithm based on BEMD and Canny operator to extract multi-pixel edge features at multiple scales in IMFs sub-images. So the multiple pixel edge extraction is an advantage of our approach; the other contribution of this method is the realization of the bi-dimensional sifting process, which is realized utilizing regional-based operators to detect local extreme points and constructing radial basis function for curve surface interpolation. The performance of the multi-pixel edge extraction algorithm for processing underwater image is demonstrated in the contrast experiment with both the proposed method and the phase congruency edge detection.

Image segmentation is very important technique as preprocessing. It is used for various applications such as object recognition, computer vision, object based image compression. In this paper, a method which segments the multidimensional image using a hierarchical histogram approach, is proposed. The hierarchical histogram approach is a method that decomposes the multi-dimensional situation into multi levels of 1 dimensional situations. It has the advantage of the rapid and easy calculation of the histogram, and at the same time because the histogram is applied at each level and not as a whole, it is possible to have more detailed partitioning of the situation.

A quantitative non-contact multi-point measurement system is proposed to the measurement of three-dimensional movement of floating vessels by using digital image processing. The instantaneous three-dimensional movement of a floating structure which is floating in a small water tank is measured by this system and its three-dimensional movement is reconstructed by the measurement results. The validity of this system is verified by position identification for spatially distributed known positional values of basic landmarks set for the camera calibration. It is expected that this system is applicable to the non-contact measurement for an unsteady physical phenomenon especially for the measurement of three-dimensional movement of floating vessels in the laboratory model test.

This paper presents an image processing method for two dimensional position measurement of a floating structure. This method is based on image processing technique using concept of window and threshold processing to track the target object. The experimental results for position measurement of the target object in two dimensional water tank demonstrate the validity of this method.

하나의 기선에 작은 여러 영상을 투영하여 하나의 영상 모자이크를 생성하는 2차원 영상 모자이크 기법은 비데오 카메라가 도심지역을 이동하여 얻은 영상을 하나의 모자이크 영상을 생성할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는, 3차원 다중 기준선을 이용함으로서 3차원 공간에서 영상 모자이크를 생성시킬 수 있는 새로운 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 각 영상 프레임마다 독립적인 기선을 가지도록 하여 3차원 공간에서 영상 모자이크를 생성 제안하는 것으로서, 독립적인 기선은 각 영상 프레임에서 추출된 광류의 지상 기준점들을 1차 방정식으로 표현한 것이다. 제안한 방법은 계층적 방법을 이용한 광류(Optical Flow)계산, 카메라 외부표정(Exterior Orientation)계산, 다중 기선(Multi-baselines)계산과 모자이크 된 영상들간의 경계를 감지 못하는 화소(Optimal Seamline Detection)의한 영상 모자이크 재생성 과정을 통해 구현되며, 실제 영상 프레임을 이용한 실험을 통해 효과적으로 3차원 공간에서 영상 모자이크 제작이 가능함을 입증하였다.

3차원 공간정보를 구축하기 위해서는 고정밀의 3차원 점군데이터를 취득할 수 있는 레이저스캐닝 기술과 고해상도의 다중분광 영상정보를 취득할 수 있는 사진측량용 카메라의 활용은 필수이다. 그러나 사진측량용 카메라는 장비특성상 높은 구입비와 어려운 구입경로, 낮은 적용성으로 폭넓은 활용분야에 비해 활용성이 떨어진다. 따라서 일반사용자가 빠르고 간편하게 접근할 수 있는 디지털카메라를 이용하여 다차원 정사영상을 구축하는 기법을 연구하였다. 즉 3차원공간정보의 핵심자료인 3차원 다중분광영상정보를 구축하기 위해 디지털카메라를 개조하고 캘리브레이션 작업을 수행하였다. 스테레오 사진측량을 위한 기준점 측량과 관측대상에 대한 다중분광촬영, 정사영상으로의 변환 등을 거쳐 다차원 정사영상을 구축하였다.
