Moving objects in video data are main elements for video analysis and retrieval. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for tracking and segmenting moving objects in color image sequences that include complex camera motion such as zoom, pan and rotating. The Proposed algorithm is based on the Mean-shift color segmentation and stochastic region matching method. For segmenting moving objects, each sequence is divided into a set of similar color regions using Mean-shift color segmentation algorithm. Each segmented region is matched to the corresponding region in the subsequent frame. The motion vector of each matched region is then estimated and these motion vectors are summed to estimate global motion. Once motion vectors are estimated for all frame of video sequences, independently moving regions can be segmented by comparing their trajectories with that of global motion. Finally, segmented regions are merged into the independently moving object by comparing the similarities of trajectories, positions and emerging period. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is capable of segmenting independently moving objects in the video sequences including complex camera motion.

본 논문에서는 실내 환경에서 동적 스테레오 카메라(active stereo camera)를 이용한 새로운 인체 실루엣 추출 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘의 주된 응용분야는 이동 로봇 플랫폼에서의 인체 실루엣을 이용한 제스처 인식이다. 먼 거리에서 움직이는 객체를 분할(segmentation)하는 데에는 저해상도, 그림자, 스테레오 정합의 불확실성, 배경과 객체의 색 분포의 불안정성 등과 같은 다양한 문제를 내포한다. 우리는 먼저 이미지 분할 기법과 스테레오 정보를 이용하여 신뢰도 높은 객체와 배경 영역을 추정하였다. 이렇게 추정된 영역을 적절히 그래프 컷(graph cut)에 활용하는 방식을 고안함으로써 주변 환경의 변화에 강인한 인체 실루엣 추출을 가능하게 하였다. 제안한 방식은 실내에서 펜-틸트(pan-tilt) 스테레오 카메라로 획득된 비디오 데이타를 대상으로 실험하였으며, 색, 색과 스테레오, 색과 대비 정보를 기반으로 한 방법들과 비교 실험한 결과 정확도가 많이 향상된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The rapid development of neural network technology promotes the neural network model driven by big data to overcome the texture effect of complex objects. Due to the limitations in complex scenes, it is necessary to establish custom template matching and apply it to the research of many fields of computational vision technology. The dependence on high-quality small label sample database data is not very strong, and the machine learning system of deep feature connection to complete the task of texture effect inference and speculation is relatively poor. The style transfer algorithm based on neural network collects and preserves the data of patterns, extracts and modernizes their features. Through the algorithm model, it is easier to present the texture color of patterns and display them digitally. In this paper, according to the texture effect reasoning of custom template matching, the 3D visualization of the target is transformed into a 3D model. The high similarity between the scene to be inferred and the user-defined template is calculated by the user-defined template of the multi-dimensional external feature label. The convolutional neural network is adopted to optimize the external area of the object to improve the sampling quality and computational performance of the sample pyramid structure. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm can accurately capture the significant target, achieve more ablation noise, and improve the visualization results. The proposed deep convolutional neural network optimization algorithm has good rapidity, data accuracy and robustness. The proposed algorithm can adapt to the calculation of more task scenes, display the redundant vision-related information of image conversion, enhance the powerful computing power, and further improve the computational efficiency and accuracy of convolutional networks, which has a high research significance for the study of image information conversion.

There are several methods to record three dimensional (3D) information of objects such as lens array based integral imaging, synthetic aperture integral imaging (SAII), computer synthesized integral imaging (CSII), axially distributed image sensing (ADS), and axially distributed stereo image sensing (ADSS). ADSS method is capable of recording partially occluded 3D objects and reconstructing high-resolution slice plane images. In this paper, we present a computational method for depth extraction of partially occluded 3D objects using ADSS. In the proposed method, the high resolution elemental stereo image pairs are recorded by simply moving the stereo camera along the optical axis and the recorded elemental image pairs are used to reconstruct 3D slice images using the computational reconstruction algorithm. To extract depth information of partially occluded 3D object, we utilize the edge enhancement and simple block matching algorithm between two reconstructed slice image pair. To demonstrate the proposed method, we carry out the preliminary experiments and the results are presented.

Terahertz waves are superior to conventional X-ray or Magnetic Resonance Tomography(MRI), and the amount of information that can be transmitted is as large as thousands of times that conventional X-ray or MRI. In addition, Terahertz waves have great performance in analyzing an object which have some layered structure. By using this advantage, we can extract the letters of a page by analyzing information such as absorption amount and reflection amount by irradiating a closed book with pulses of various frequencies within gap of a terahertz wave. However, in the image of each page using the Terahertz wave might be obtained various kinds of noise and the different character occlusion region. So, to extract letters from the terahertz image, we must take the noise and occlusion region away. We have been working to enhancement the image quality in various ways, and keep on studying de-noising processing for enhancement about the image quality and high resolution. Finally, we also keep on studying about OCR(Optical Character Recognition) technology, which based on pattern matching technique, to read letters.

Road surface deteriorations such as potholes have caused motorists heavy monetary damages every year. However, effective road condition monitoring has been a continuing challenge to road owners. Depth cameras have a small field of view and can be easily affected by vehicle bouncing. Traditional image processing methods based on algorithms such as segmentation cannot adapt to varying environmental and camera scenarios. In recent years, novel object detection methods based on deep learning algorithms have produced good results in detecting typical objects, such as faces, vehicles, structures and more, even in scenarios with changing object distances, camera angles, lighting conditions, etc. Therefore, in this study, a Deep Learning Pothole Detector (DLPD) based on the deep region-based convolutional neural network is proposed for autonomous detection of potholes from images. About 900 images with potholes and road surface conditions are collected and divided into training and testing data. Parameters of the network in the DLPD are calibrated based on sensitivity tests. Then, the calibrated DLPD is trained by the training data and applied to the 215 testing images to evaluate its performance. It is demonstrated that potholes can be automatically detected with high average precision over 93%. Potholes can be differentiated from manholes by training and applying a manhole-pothole classifier which is constructed using the convolutional neural network layers in DLPD. Repeated detection of the same potholes can be prevented through feature matching of the newly detected pothole with previously detected potholes within a small region.

Accurate detection, tracking and analysis of human movement using robots and other visual surveillance systems is still a challenge. Efforts are on to make the system robust against constraints such as variation in shape, size, pose and occlusion. Traditional methods of detection used the sliding window approach which involved scanning of various sizes of windows across an image. This paper concentrates on employing a state-of-the-art, hierarchical graph based method for segmentation. It has two stages: part level segmentation for color-consistent segments and object level segmentation for category-consistent regions. The tracking phase is achieved by employing SIFT keypoint descriptor based technique in a combined matching and tracking scheme with validation phase. Localization of human region in each frame is performed by keypoints by casting votes for the center of the human detected region. As it is difficult to avoid incorrect keypoints, a consensus-based framework is used to detect voting behavior. The designed methodology is tested on the video sequences having 3 to 4 persons.

본 항공기에 스테레오 카메라를 장착하여 영상 기반의 비행 객체 탐지 및 탐지된 객체의 3차원 위치를 추정하는 방법을 제시하였다. 구름 사이에 존재할 수 있는 원거리의 작은 객체를 탐지하기 위한 방법으로 PCT 기반의 Saliency Map을 생성하여 이용하였으며, 이렇게 탐지된 객체는 좌우 스테레오 영상에서 매칭을 수행하여 스테레오 시차(Disparity)를 추출하였다. 정확한 Disparity를 추출하기 위하여 비용집적(Cost Aggregation) 영역을 탐지 객체에 맞추어 가변되도록 가변 영역으로 사용하였으며, 본 논문에서는 Saliency Map에서 객체의 존재 영역으로 검출된 결과를 사용하였다. 좀 더 정밀한 Disparity를 추출하기 위하여 Sub-pixel interpolation 기법을 사용하여 Sub-pixel 레벨의 실수형 Disparity를 추출하였다. 또한 이에 카메라 파라미터를 적용하여 실제 탐지된 비행 객체의 3차원 공간 좌표를 생성하여 객체의 공간위치를 추정하는 방법을 제시하였다. 이는 향후 자율비행체의 영상기반 객체 탐지 및 충돌방지 시스템에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
