This paper presents the results of wave profile detection from video image using Mexican hat function. The Mexican hat function has been extensively used in the filed of signal processing to detect discontinuity in the images. The analysis was done on the numerical image and video images of waves which were taken in the circulating water channel. The results show that Mexican hat function is an excellent tool in the wave profile detection.

Railway track supports and guides train and it directly affects ride quality and safety. To maintain track quality, regular maintenance activity is essential but it degrades track usage since maintenance activity occupies the track during the work. To achieve maximum track efficiency, track inspection should be performed at commercial running speed. In this paper, we designed and developed high speed rail profile measurement system using laser light sectioning method with line laser generator, digital camera and DSP based image processing system. The measurement system can supports rail profile measurement at the speed of 300 Km/h that can be applied to KTX.

The purpose of this study is to examine design preferences for the sales spaces of duty-free shops (DFSs) by conducting image evaluations. The results will help improve quality by influencing designs for the construction, extension or remodeling of these shops. An image measurement method, the semantic differential method, was used to measure cognitive structure using photos of shops. Photos were collected of the DFS at Jeju Island, as well as photos of brand stores designed by architects. Two sets of 16 photos (32 different photos in all) were selected according to photo classification standards and design concepts, both decided by reviewing previous studies and related materials. The evaluation and survey were done by two sets of subjects: sales employees, who have experience and special knowledge of the evaluation of sales space; and students majoring in architecture. To strengthen the evaluation results, I conducted a preliminary survey and a main survey, verifying and complementing findings. 116 surveys were conducted, of which 14 were of poor quality and rejected, leaving and 102 to be analyzed. The collected surveys were statistically analyzed, using SPSS 12.0 for Windows. Reliability, image profile, factor and multi-dimensional scaling analyses were conducted. As a result, image evaluation structure and characteristics were obtained for sales spaces of DFSs, confirming the difference between them and other spaces.

PURPOSE. Accurate information is essential in dentistry. The image information of missing teeth is used in optically based medical equipment in prosthodontic treatment. To evaluate oral scanners, the standardized model was examined from cases of image recognition errors of linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and a model that combines the variables with reference to ISO 12836:2015 was designed. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The basic model was fabricated by applying 4 factors to the tooth profile (chamfer, groove, curve, and square) and the bottom surface. Photo-type and video-type scanners were used to analyze 3D images after image capture. The scans were performed several times according to the prescribed sequence to distinguish the model from the one that did not form, and the results confirmed it to be the best. RESULTS. In the case of the initial basic model, a 3D shape could not be obtained by scanning even if several shots were taken. Subsequently, the recognition rate of the image was improved with every variable factor, and the difference depends on the tooth profile and the pattern of the floor surface. CONCLUSION. Based on the recognition error of the LDA, the recognition rate decreases when the model has a similar pattern. Therefore, to obtain the accurate 3D data, the difference of each class needs to be provided when developing a standardized model.

In this paper, we propose the gesture recognition system using a motion information from extracted hand region in complex background image. First of all, we measure entropy for the difference image between continuous frames. Using a color information that is similar to a skin color in candidate region which has high value, we extract hand region only from background image. On the extracted hand region, we detect a contour using the chain code and recognize hand gesture by applying improved centroidal profile method. In the experimental results for 6 kinds of hand gesture, unlike existing methods, we can stably recognize hand gesture in complex background and illumination changes without marker. Also, it shows the recognition rate with more than 95% for person and 90∼100% for each gesture at 15 frames/second.

In this paper, we describe the color reproduction system for color images captured by digital camera. The system uses a color compensation chart to estimate the transformation between the colors in the image and the reference colors in the chart. The color reproduction process consists of two steps, i.e., the profile creation process and the profile application process. During the pro-file creation process, the relationships between the captured colors and the ref-erence colors are estimated. And the system creates a color profile and embeds the estimation result in the profile. During the profile application process, the colors in the images which are captured under the same condition as that of the chart image are reproduced using the created color profile. To evaluate the per-formance of the system, we perform experiments under various conditions. And we compare the results with those of widely used commercial applications.

A robotic system with a 3-dimensional profile measuring sensor is developed in order to measure the complicated shape of the target body. Due to this 3-dimensional profile measuring sensor, a computer is able to adjust the posture of the robot hand so that complicated global profile of the target body can be recognized after several measurements from the variant directions. In order to enable fast data processing, a digital signal processor and a look-up table is introduced.

In the recognition of similar patterns like profile contours of human faces, feature measure plays important role. We extracted effective and general feature by B-spline approximation. The nodes and vertices of the approximated curve are normalized and used as features. Since the features have both local property of curvature extrema and global property by B-spline approximation, they are superior to those of curvature extrema of the profile contour. For the image data of six sets of 56 persons, some of which are ill-made, averaged accuracy rate of 97.6 % is obtained in recognizing combinational 333 test samples.

In this paper, we present a new Practical implementation of a person verification system using the profile of 3-dimensional(3D) face images based on weighted Hausdorff distance(WHD) used depth information. The approach works on finding the nose tip have protrusion shape on the face using iterative selection method to use a fiducial feint and extract the profile image from vertical 3D data for the nose tip. Hausdorff distance(HD) is one of usually used measures for object matching. This works analyze the conventional HD and WHD, which the weighted factor is depth information. The Ll measure for comparing two feature vectors were used, because it is simple and robust. In the experimental results, the WHD method achieves recognition rate of 94.3% when the ranked threshold is 5.

Advancements in digital image have put high quality digital camera into the hands of many image professionals and consumers alike. High quality digital camera images consist originally of raw which have a set of color rendering operation applied to them to produce good images. With color rendering, the raw file was converted to Adobe RGB and sRGB color space. Also color rendering can incorporate factor such as white balance, contrast, saturation. Therefore, in this paper we conduct a study on production of optimum profile considered color rendering in digital camera. To do the experiment, the images were Digital ColorChecker SG target and ColorChecker DC target. A profiling tool was ProfileMaker 5.03. The results were analyzed by comparing in color gamut of $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ color space and calculating ${\Delta}E^*_{ab}$. Also results were analyzed in terms of different $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ color space quadrants based on lightness, chroma.
