It is often desirable that manufacturers and users can convert the reference white of display into the preferred color temperature by controlling the color temperature that is one of representative color characteristics of a light source. Accordingly, this paper proposes an efficient method of color compensation for displaying the uncalibrated video signal in PDP-TV and is also shown to be successfully coupled with flexible color temperature conversion based on the signal processing technique.

Multi-view video plus depth (MVD) has been widely used owing to its effectiveness in three-dimensional data representation. Using MVD, color videos with only a limited number of real viewpoints are compressed and transmitted along with captured or estimated depth videos. Because the synthesized views are generated from decoded real views, their original reference views do not exist at either the transmitter or receiver. Therefore, it is challenging to define an efficient metric to evaluate the quality of synthesized images. We propose a novel metric-the reduced-reference quality metric. First, the effects of depth distortion on the quality of synthesized images are analyzed. We then employ the high correlation between the local depth distortions and local color characteristics of the decoded depth and color images, respectively, to achieve an efficient depth quality metric for each real view. Finally, the objective quality metric of the synthesized views is obtained by combining all the depth quality metrics obtained from the decoded real views. The experimental results show that the proposed quality metric correlates very well with full reference image and video quality metrics.

본 논문에서는 영상을 촬영한 장면의 조명 색도를 추정하는 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 피부색을 이용한 조명 색도 추정 방법은 Storring, Bianco 등이 제안하였다. Storring은 피부색 분포 특성, 완전 복사체 궤적을 이용하였으나 완전 복사체 궤적과 CIE-xy 자료의 연계성이 저하되는 문제가 있다. Bianco 등은 표준조명에서의 피부색 분포와 입력 영상의 피부색 분포를 대조하여 조명 색도를 추정하였다. 이 방법은 다양한 조명에서의 피부색을 최대한 많이 측정하고 확보하기가 어렵다. 제안한 방법은 피부색도 정보와 조명색도 간의 관계를 분석하여 임의의 입력 영상에 대한 조명 색도를 추정할 수 있다. 추정 방법은 분석단계와 테스트 단계로 구분되며, 데이터 셋을 분석 군과 테스트 군으로 분류하여 사용하였다. 분석 군의 모든 입력영상으로부터 각각 피부색 영역을 구하여 피부 색도를 계산한다. 피부 색도의 평균값 집합과 기준 조명 색도 집합의 상관 관계를 분석하여 사상을 구한다. 계산된 사상을 분석 군의 모든 입력 영상에 적용하여 조명 색도를 추정하고 기준 조명색도와의 오차를 계산하고, 오차의 변화가 없을 때까지 상기 과정을 반복하여 안정적인 사상을 구한다. 구해진 사상을 분석 단계와 유사하게 테스트 군 영상에 적용하여 조명 색도를 추정한다. 피부영역과 조명 기준정보가 포함된 데이터 셋이 독립적으로 존재하지 않기 때문에 인텔 TAU 데이터셋의 영상 일부를 이용하여 실험 데이터 셋을 구성하였다. 유사한 이론 기반의 기존 방법인 Finlayson에 비하여 40% 이상, Zhang에 대해서는 11%, Kim에 대해서는 16% 정도의 성능개선을 보였다.

This paper describes a system fur tracking multiple faces in an input video sequence using facial convex hull based facial segmentation and robust hausdorff distance. The algorithm adapts skin color reference map in YCbCr color space and hair color reference map in RGB color space for classifying face region. Then, we obtain an initial face model with preprocessing and convex hull. For tracking, this algorithm computes displacement of the point set between frames using a robust hausdorff distance and the best possible displacement is selected. Finally, the initial face model is updated using the displacement. We provide an example to illustrate the proposed tracking algorithm, which efficiently tracks rotating and zooming faces as well as existing multiple faces in video sequences obtained from CCD camera.

Ocean color remote sensing community currently uses the different solar irradiance spectra covering the visible and near-infrared in the calibration/validation and deriving products of ocean color instruments. These spectra derived from single and / or multiple measurements sets or models have significant discrepancies, primarily due to variation of the solar activity and uncertainties in the measurements from various instruments and their different calibration standards. Thus, it is prudent to examine model-to-model differences and select a standard reference spectrum that can be adopted in the future calibration and validation processes, particularly of the first Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) onboard its Communication Ocean and Meterological Satellite (COMS) planned to be launched in 2008. From an exhaustive survey that reveals a variety of solar spectra in the literature, only eight spectra are considered here seeing as reference in many remote sensing applications. Several criteria are designed to define the reference spectrum: i.e., minimum spectral range of 350-1200nm, based completely or mostly on direct measurements, possible update of data and less errors. A careful analysis of these spectra reveals that the Thuillier 2004 spectrum seems to be very identical compared to other spectra, primarily because it represents very high spectral resolution and the current state of the art in solar irradiance spectra of exceptionally low uncertainty ${\sim}0.1%.$ This study also suggests use of the Gueymard 2004 spectrum as an alternative for applications of multispectral/multipurpose satellite sensors covering the terrestrial regions of interest, where it provides spectral converge beyond 2400nm of the Thuillier 2004 spectrum. Since the solar-activity induced spectral variation is about less than 0.1% and a large portion of this variability occurs particularly in the ultraviolet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is the region of less interest for the ocean color community, we disregard considering this variability in the analysis of solar irradiance spectra, although determine the solar constant 1366.1 $Wm^{-2}$ to be proposed for an improved approximation of the extraterrestrial solar spectrum in the visible and NIR region.

Skin color reappearance problem in color processing system is necessary to transform a specific color sand improve color reappearance quality as a reference color. The skin color has been situated as an important memory color not only in our lives but also in color application systems such as TV. Thus, skin color reappearance problem is more important than other color processing problem. In this paper, we propose a skin color reappearance algorithm for color enhancement in TV which use phase detector to detect the skin colors at real-time from 3.58 MHz color burst signal and color signal, comparators to discriminate the types of skin color, and micom to reprodece standard skin colors for races.

The purpose of this study was to analyze whether quantitative evaluation of the color of the tongue substance using $L^*a^*b^*$ color coordinates system could minimize the problems arising from the different illuminating conditions or not. In controlled 4 different illuminating conditions (by natural light, flashlight, f-number, shutter speed),12 healthy subjects were photographed of their tongue substance through a digital camera (C-2100uz, Olympus Co.), both on the top surface and on the bottom surface of the tongue substance by two examiners, twice at 3 day intervals. Clinician evaluation was also performed grading the redness of the tongue substance in the form of 5-points scale by 6 clinicians. As a result, there was no significant difference in color differences between the color of the tongue substance and the reference red card in the 4 different illuminating conditions. Intra-rater reliability was satisfied and even though limitedly, inter-rater reliability was satisfied. Color differences were significantly correlated with the results by the clinicians, although they were applicable limitedly to specific illuminating conditions. Our results indicate that the application of the color differences in tongue diagnosis could not only evaluate the color information quantitatively, but also minimize the problems arising from the different illuminating conditions and that there was the significant difference in the visual evaluation of the red color of the tongue substance, both between the clinicians and between the illuminating conditions.

본 논문에서는 카메라가 가지는 대표적인 기능중의 하나인 자동 화이트 밸런스에 대한 알고리즘을 제안한다. 화이트 밸런스는 흰색의 물체나 물건 고유의 색이 아닌 부분들을 제거하는 과정이다. 화이트 밸런스를 수행하기 위해 사람의 눈에 의해 느끼는 시각차와 색차의 표현이 동일한 $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ 색 공간에서 영상의 분포를 분석하여 흰색 물체의 색 변화 정도를 추정한다. 이를 기준 백색 추정이라 한다. 정확한 추정을 위하여 환경에 의해 변화되었다고 추정되는 부분에 대해 그룹화 한다. 그룹화 된 영상 정보를 통해 영상의 특성을 파악하여 기준 그룹을 정하여 기준 그룹까지의 누적 픽셀들을 선택하는 컬러 샘플링하여 기준 백색을 추정한다. 또한 영상 보정을 위한 컬러 이득은 영상의 포화(Saturation)를 고려하여 얻어진다. 이를 통한 제안된 자동 화이트 밸런스 알고리즘은 뛰어난 영상 보정 기능을 가진다.
