This paper describes an implementation method for the 'People Counting System' which detects and tracks moving people using a fixed single camera. This system proposes the method of improving performances by compensating weakness of existing algorithm. For increasing effect of detection, this system uses Single Gaussian Background Modeling which is more robust at noise and has adaptiveness. It minimizes unnecessarily detected area that is a limitation of the detecting method by using the background differences. And this system prevents additional detecting problems by removing shadow. Also, This system solves the problems of segmentation and union of people by using a new method. This method can work appropriately, if the angle of camera would not strictly vertical or the direction of shadow were lopsided. Also, by using integration System, it can solve a number of special cases as many as possible. For example, if the system fails to tracking, it will detect the object again and will make it possible to count moving people.

본 연구에서는 교통 신호를 능동적으로 제어하기 위하여 횡단보도영역에서 보행자의 행동을 판단하는 방법을 제안한다. 코드북기법을 이용하여 보행자 객체를 검출하고, 외곽선을 정보를 획득한다. 신속한 객체 검출을 위하여 CUDA(Compute Unified Device Architecture)기반 병렬화 처리한다. 해당 객체의 형상정보에 왜곡을 일으키는 투영 음영을 제거한 후, 보행자 객체가 보행자인지 혹은 차량, 동물인지를 식별하기 위해 힐버트 스캔 거리값(Hilbert Scan Distance)을 이용한 형판정합 기법을 수행한다. 정합 후에는 보행자 객체의 움직임, 얼굴영역의 특징, 대기 시간의 분석을 통하여 보행자의 횡단보도 이용 의지를 판단하고 교통신호를 제어한다.

A video analysis system used to detect events in video streams generally has several processes, including object detection, object trajectories analysis, and recognition of the trajectories by comparison with an a priori trained model. However, these processes do not work well in a complex environment that has many occlusions, mirror effects, and/or shadow effects. We propose a new approach to a context-aware video surveillance system to detect predefined contexts in video streams. The proposed system consists of two modules: a feature extractor and a context recognizer. The feature extractor calculates the moving energy that represents the amount of moving objects in a video stream and the stationary energy that represents the amount of still objects in a video stream. We represent situations and events as motion changes and stationary energy in video streams. The context recognizer determines whether predefined contexts are included in video streams using the extracted moving and stationary energies from a feature extractor. To train each context model and recognize predefined contexts in video streams, we propose and use a new ensemble classifier based on the AdaBoost algorithm, DAdaBoost, which is one of the most famous ensemble classifier algorithms. Our proposed approach is expected to be a robust method in more complex environments that have a mirror effect and/or a shadow effect.

The study is an image-based assessment that uses image processing techniques to determine the condition of concrete with surface cracks. The preparations of the dataset include resizing and image filtering to ensure statistical homogeneity and noise reduction. The image dataset is then segmented, making it more suited for extracting important features and easier to evaluate. The image is transformed into grayscale which removes the hue and saturation but retains the luminance. To create a clean edge map, the edge detection process is utilized to extract the major edge features of the image. The Otsu method is used to minimize intraclass variation between black and white pixels. Additionally, the median filter was employed to reduce noise while keeping the borders of the image. Image processing techniques are used to enhance the significant features of the concrete image, especially the defects. In this study, the tonal zones of the histogram and its properties are used to analyze the condition of the concrete. By examining the histogram, the viewer will be able to determine the information on the image through the number of pixels associated and each tonal characteristic on a graph. The features of the five tonal zones of the histogram which implies the qualities of the concrete image may be evaluated based on the quality of the contrast, brightness, highlights, shadow spikes, or the condition of the shadow region that corresponds to the foreground.

SiC(3C) 광다이오드는 p-형 Si 위에 tetramethylsilane (TMS)를 열분해아여 화학기상증착법으로 성장된 SiC(3C) 에피층을 성장하여 제작되었다. SiC(3C)의 전기적 특성은 홀 측정(Hall measurement) 및 전류-전압(I-V) 특성으로 조사되었다. SiC(3C) 에피층의 전도형은 n-형이었다. 저항성 접촉은 마스크 (shadow-mask)를 통해서 Al을 열증착하여 형성하였다. SiC(3C)광다이오드의 광학적 이득(photovoltaic detection)를 해석하기 위하여 SiC(3C) 에피층의 Spectral response (SR)를 전기적 변수(electrical parameter) 및 광다이오드의 기하학적 구조(geometric structure)를 고려하여 계산하였다. 적절히 선정된 변수들로부터 계산된 SR의 최대값은 550 nm에서 약 0.75이었고, 파장영역 400~600 nm 사이에서 청색 및 근자외선 광검지기로서 매우 유용하다.

컴퓨터 비전 기술이 위성영상에 적용되면서, 최근 들어 딥러닝 영상인식을 이용한 구름 탐지가 관심을 끌고 있다. 본연구에서는 SPARCS (Spatial Procedures for Automated Removal of Cloud and Shadow) Cloud Dataset과 영상자료증대 기법을 활용하여 U-Net 구름탐지 모델링을 수행하고, 10폴드 교차검증을 통해 객관적인 정확도 평가를 수행하였다. 512×512 화소로 구성된 1800장의 학습자료에 대한 암맹평가 결과, Accuracy 0.821, Precision 0.847, Recall 0.821, F1-score 0.831, IoU (Intersection over Union) 0.723의 비교적 높은 정확도를 나타냈다. 그러나 구름그림자 중 14.5%, 구름 중 19.7% 정도가 땅으로 잘못 예측되기도 했는데, 이는 학습자료의 양과 질을 보다 더 향상시킴으로써 개선 가능할 것으로 보인다. 또한 최근 각광받고 있는 DeepLab V3+ 모델이나 NAS(Neural Architecture Search) 최적화 기법을 통해 차세대중형위성 1, 2, 4호 등의 구름탐지에 활용 가능할 것으로 기대한다.

In this paper, we develop an automatic coin calculation system by using digital image processing. Existing schemes have the problem that is not able to exclude non-circular shape from the calculation. We propose a method to detect only coins which have circular form by applying the circular Hough transform(CHT). However, the CHT has the drawback that detects multiple circles even for just one coin because of shadow noise, the patterns on coins, and non-circular edge detection. We propose a post processing algorithm to overcome these limitations. The proposed system was implemented and successfully calculated the coin amount in the case that non-circular objects are mixed with coins.

In this study, we propose a method to regulate parking violations using computer vision technology. A still color image of the parked vehicle under question is obtained by a camera mounted on enforcement vehicles. The acquired image is preprocessed through a morphological algorithm and binarized. The vehicle's shadows are detected from the binarized image, and lanes are identified using the information from the yellow parking lines that are drawn on the load. Whether parking is illegal is determined by the conformity of the lanes and the vehicle's shadow.

This paper proposes some technical approaches for automatic detection of pulmonary nodules in chest X-ray images. We applied threshold technique for the lung field segmentation and extended the lung field by using morphological methods. A template matching technique was employed for automatic detecting nodules in lung area. Genetic algorithm(GA) was used in template matching(TM) to select a matched image from various reference patterns(simulated typical nodules). We eliminated the false-positive candidates by using histograms and contrasts. We used standard databases published by Japanese Society of Radiological Technology (JSRT) for correct results. Also we employ two-dimensional Gaussian distribution for some reference images because the shadow of lung nodules in radiogram generally shows the distributions. Nodules of about 89% were correctly detected by our scheme. The simulation results show that it is an effective method to indicate lesions on chest radiograms.

In this paper we propose skewed angle detection methods for images that contain text that is not aligned horizontally. In most images text areas are aligned along the horizontal axis, however there are many occasions when the text may be at a skewed angle (denoted by 0 < ${\theta}\;{\leq}\;{\pi}$). In the work described, we adapt the Hough transform, Shadow and Threshold Projection methods to detect the skewed angle of text in an input image using the orthogonal angle view property. The results of this method are a primary text skewed angle, which allows us to rotate the original input image into an image with horizontally aligned text. This utilizes document image processing prior to the recognition stage.
