본 논문은 다중 참조영상(multiple reference image)에 적용 가능한 새로운 고속 전역탐색 움직임 추정 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 기존의 비트율을 고려한 연속제거알고리즘(rate constrained successive elimination algorithm: RSEA)을 다중 참조영상에 확대 적용하는 방법이다. 첫 번째 참조영상에 대한 움직임 추정의 계산량에 비해 그 이후 참조영상에 대한 움직임 추정의 계산량이 적어질 수 있음을 보일 것이다. 계산량 감축을 위해, 본 논문에서 최적 움직임 벡터의 후보 블록의 개수를 감소시킬 수 있는 새로운 조건을 소개한다. 실험 결과을 통해 제안된 방법이 기존의 RSEA과 동일한 움직임 추정오차를 가지면서도 계산량을 감소시킴을 보일 것이다.

동영상 압축 표준안 H.264/AVC에서 다중 참조 픽처를 이용한 움직임 추정은 압축 효율을 향상 시켰으나 그 효율은 참조 픽처의 수가 아닌 영상 내용에 의존적이다. 그래서 이 움직임 추정은 영상에 따라 많은 무의미한 계산을 포함하고 있다. 본 논문은 다중 참조 픽처를 이용한 움직임 추정의 무의미한 계산을 제거하는 고속 움직임 추정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 영상 복잡도와 예측 움직임 벡터를 이용하여 다중 참조 픽처가 유효한 블록과 무효한 블록을 구분하고 무효한 블록에 단일 참조 픽처를 적용하여 무의미한 계산을 제거한다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능 평가를 위해 참조 소프트웨어 JM 9.5에서 화질, 비트율, 움직임 추정 시간이 기존 알고리즘과 비교되었다. 실험 결과는 제안된 알고리즘이 평균 움직임 추정 시간을 약 38.67%로 크게 감소시키며 화질과 비트량을 각각 기존 알고리즘 정도인 -0.02dB와 -0.77% 정도로 유지시킬 수 있는 것을 보여주고 있다.

본 논문에서는 다중 항공영상을 이용한 영상정합기법과, 그 성능을 향상시키기 위한 시도들에 대해 기술한다. 일반적으로 영상간의 정합은 하나의 기준영상을 기준으로 다른 영상과의 밝기값 상관계수를 이용한 유사도 분석으로 진행된다. 제안된 다중 영상 정합기법 알고리즘은 처리할 지역을 일정크기의 구역으로 나누고 각 구역에서 가장 정사영상에 가까운 영상을 기준으로 하여 Object space상에서 처리할 수 있는 방식이다. 이 방식을 통해 영상의 위치에 상관없이 균등한 품질의 DEM이 생성 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 차폐탐지 및 생성된 차폐지도를 통한 성능 향상 실험을 하였으며 그 결과 더욱 정확한 3차원 정보의 표현이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

The existing image quality assessment (IQA) datasets have a small number of samples. Some methods based on transfer learning or data augmentation cannot make good use of image quality-related features. A No Reference (NR)-IQA method based on multi-task training and quality awareness is proposed. First, single or multiple distortion types and levels are imposed on the original image, and different strategies are used to augment different types of distortion datasets. With the idea of weak supervision, we use the Full Reference (FR)-IQA methods to obtain the pseudo-score label of the generated image. Then, we combine the classification information of the distortion type, level, and the information of the image quality score. The ResNet50 network is trained in the pre-train stage on the augmented dataset to obtain more quality-aware pre-training weights. Finally, the fine-tuning stage training is performed on the target IQA dataset using the quality-aware weights to predicate the final prediction score. Various experiments designed on the synthetic distortions and authentic distortions datasets (LIVE, CSIQ, TID2013, LIVEC, KonIQ-10K) prove that the proposed method can utilize the image quality-related features better than the method using only single-task training. The extracted quality-aware features improve the accuracy of the model.

A fast and accurate building-level visual place recognition method built on an image-retrieval scheme using street-view images is proposed. Reference images generated from street-view images usually depict multiple buildings and confusing regions, such as roads, sky, and vehicles, which degrades retrieval accuracy and causes matching ambiguity. The proposed practical database refinement method uses informative reference image and keypoint selection. For database refinement, the method uses a spatial layout of the buildings in the reference image, specifically a building-identification mask image, which is obtained from a prebuilt three-dimensional model of the site. A global-positioning-system-aware retrieval structure is incorporated in it. To evaluate the method, we constructed a dataset over an area of $0.26km^2$. It was comprised of 38,700 reference images and corresponding building-identification mask images. The proposed method removed 25% of the database images using informative reference image selection. It achieved 85.6% recall of the top five candidates in 1.25 s of full processing. The method thus achieved high accuracy at a low computational complexity.

As AI technology is recently introduced into various fields, it is being applied to the fashion field. This paper proposes a system for recommending cody clothes suitable for a user's selected clothes. The proposed system consists of user app, cody recommendation module, and server interworking of each module and managing database data. Cody recommendation system classifies clothing images into 80 categories composed of feature combinations, selects multiple representative reference images for each category, and selects 3 full body cordy images for each representative reference image. Cody images of the representative reference image were determined by analyzing the user's preference using Google survey app. The proposed algorithm classifies categories the clothing image selected by the user into a category, recognizes the most similar image among the classification category reference images, and transmits the linked cody images to the user's app. The proposed system uses the ResNet-50 model to categorize the input image and measures similarity using ORB and HOG features to select a reference image in the category. We test the proposed algorithm in the Android app, and the result shows that the recommended system runs well.

We propose an automatic inspection system for hologram with multiple patterns. The system hardware consists of illuminations, camera, and vision processor. Multiple illuminations using LEDs are arranged in different directions to acquire each image of patterns. The system software consists of pre-processing, pattern generation, and pattern matching. The acquired images of input hologram are compared with their reference patterns by developed matching algorithm. To compensate for the positioning error of input hologram, reference patterns of hologram for different position should be generated in on-line. We apply a frequency transformation based CGH(computer-generated hologram) method to generate reference images. For the fast pattern matching, we also apply the matching method in the frequency domain. Experimental results for hologram of Korean currency are then presented to verify the usefulness of proposed system.

The number of imaging data sets has significantly increased during radiation treatment after introducing a diverse range of advanced techniques into the field of radiation oncology. As a consequence, there have been many studies proposing meaningful applications of imaging data set use. These applications commonly require a method to align the data sets at a reference. Deformable image registration (DIR) is a process which satisfies this requirement by locally registering image data sets into a reference image set. DIR identifies the spatial correspondence in order to minimize the differences between two or among multiple sets of images. This article describes clinical applications, validation, and algorithms of DIR techniques. Applications of DIR in radiation treatment include dose accumulation, mathematical modeling, automatic segmentation, and functional imaging. Validation methods discussed are based on anatomical landmarks, physical phantoms, digital phantoms, and per application purpose. DIR algorithms are also briefly reviewed with respect to two algorithmic components: similarity index and deformation models.

This paper proposes a fusion algorithm which merges multiple vein pattern images into a single image, larger than those images. As a preprocessing step of template matching, during the verification of biometric data such as fingerprint image, vein pattern image of hand, etc., the fusion technique is used to make reference image larger than the candidate images in order to enhance the matching performance. In this paper, a new algorithm, called BSA (Boundary Stitching Algorithm) is proposed, in which the boundary rectilinear parts extracted from the candidate images are stitched to the reference image in order to enlarge its matching space. By applying BSA to practical vein pattern verification system, its verification rate was increased by about 10%.

In this paper, the real-time optical associative memory using multiple hologram which is generated with two angular multiplexed reference beams and Fourier transformed object beam in the $BaTiO_{3}$ crystal based on DFWM mechanism. When one image is recorded in the $BaTiO_{3}$ crystal, complete image can be recalled by 9 % partial input of the stored original image without any additional thresholding and optical feedback process. As an experimental result of multiple Fourier hologram which is recorded with two binary images, OHCHAS and PARKHK, we can obtain complete image recalled by 1/6 partial input of the stored image.
