We have developed an image reversal photoresist with high thermal stability and electric insulating properties for the single isolation structure of OLEDs. The thermal stability and electric insulating properties are investigated and compared with those of conventional insulator and cathode separator materials. The single isolation structure using the image reversal photoresist reduces the fabrication process steps and cuts down the manufacturing cost.

We present a method for 3D shape reconstruction of inextensible deformable surfaces from a single image. The key of our approach is to represent the surface as a 3D triangulated mesh and formulate the reconstruction problem as a sequence of Linear Programming (LP) problems. The LP problem consists of data constraints which are 3D-to-2D keypoint correspondences and shape constraints which are designed to retain original lengths of mesh edges. We use a closed-form method to generate an initial structure, then refine this structure by solving the LP problem iteratively. Compared with previous methods, ours neither involves smoothness constraints nor temporal consistency, which enables us to recover shapes of surfaces with various deformations from a single image. The robustness and accuracy of our approach are evaluated quantitatively on synthetic data and qualitatively on real data.

본 논문은 single image에서 측정한 빛 전달량 값과 local contrast 값을 사용하여 안개 량을 수치화하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 빛 전달량 값을 사용하여 안개로 예측되는 지역을 추정하고, 추정된 안개 예측지역의 넓이와 해당 지역의 local contrast 크기의 범위를 사용하여 안개 정도를 수치화 한다. single image에서 측정 가능한 안개 의 물리적 특성들을 고려하였기 때문에 기존의 안개 검출 알고리즘들이 구분하지 못했던 영상들에서도 안개 량을 정확하게 측정하였다. 실제 빛의 산란 정도를 측정하는 감광 계수 측정계를 사용하여 측정한 안개 량과 제안하는 방법의 수치를 비교했을 때, 다양한 환경과 물체를 포함한 영상들에서 95%이상의 정확도로 안개 정도를 수치화 하였다. 또한 빛 전달량 추정 과정에서 local contrast 값을 추출하여 사용하기 때문에 기존의 빛 전달량을 측정하는 방법에서 복잡도를 거의 증가시키지 않는다.

Single image를 사용하여 안개양을 측정하는 방법으로는 소실점, 지평선의 local contrast를 측정하는 방법과 DCP의 빛 전 달양을 사용하는 방법이 있다. 하지만 local contrast를 사용하는 방법은 특정한 환경에서만 사용이 가능하고 DCP는 대기의 color와 비슷한 color를 가진 물체들이 많을 경우 사용하기 어렵다는 한계가 있다. 그래서 본 논문은 영상의 빛 전달양과 Local Contrast를 사용하여 다양한 contents를 가진 single image에서 안개양을 수치화하는 새로운 방법을 제시한다. 제시하는 방법은 DCP로부터 측정한 빛 전달량으로부터 안개일 가능성이 있는 빛 전달량 지역의 면적과 해당 지역에서의 Local contrast의 분포 정도를 측정하여 DoF를 계산한다.

Removing noise which occurs inevitably when taking image data has been a big concern. There is a way to raise signal-to-noise ratio and it is regarded as the only way, image stacking. Image stacking is averaging or just adding all pixel values of multiple pictures taken of a specific area. Its performance and reliability are unquestioned, but its weaknesses are also evident. Object with fast proper motion can be vanished, and most of all, it takes too long time. So if we can handle single shot image well and achieve similar performance, we can overcome those weaknesses. Recent developments in deep learning have enabled things that were not possible with former algorithm-based programming. One of the things is generating data with more information from data with less information. As a part of that, we reproduced stacked image from single shot image using a kind of deep learning, conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN). r-band camcol2 south data were used from SDSS Stripe 82 data. From all fields, image data which is stacked with only 22 individual images and, as a pair of stacked image, single pass data which were included in all stacked image were used. All used fields are cut in $128{\times}128$ pixel size, so total number of image is 17930. 14234 pairs of all images were used for training cGAN and 3696 pairs were used for verify the result. As a result, RMS error of pixel values between generated data from the best condition and target data were $7.67{\times}10^{-4}$ compared to original input data, $1.24{\times}10^{-3}$. We also applied to a few test galaxy images and generated images were similar to stacked images qualitatively compared to other de-noising methods. In addition, with photometry, The number count of stacked-cGAN matched sources is larger than that of single pass-stacked one, especially for fainter objects. Also, magnitude completeness became better in fainter objects. With this work, it is possible to observe reliably 1 magnitude fainter object.

In this paper, we describe an algorithm for extracting depth information from a single image based on CNN. When acquiring three-dimensional information from a single two-dimensional image using a deep-learning technique, it is difficult to accurately predict the edge portion of the depth image because it is a part where the depth changes abruptly. in this paper, we introduce the concept of pixel-wise confidence to take advantage of these characteristics. We propose an algorithm that estimates depth information from a highly reliable flat part and propagates it to the edge part to improve the accuracy of depth estimation.

Previous approaches to the 2D to 3D conversion problem require heavy computation or considerable amount of user input. In this paper, we propose a rather simple method in estimating the depth map from a single image using a monocular depth cue: haze. Using the haze imaging model, we obtain the distance information and estimate a reliable depth map from a single scenery image. Using the depth map, we also suggest an algorithm that converts the single image to 3D stereoscopic images. We determine a disparity value for each pixel from the original 'left' image and generate a corresponding 'right' image. Results show that the algorithm gives well refined depth maps despite the simplicity of the approach.

A digital city model represents a 3D environment of a city with various city object information such as 3D building model, road, and land cover. Usually, at least two satellite images with some image overlap are necessary and a complex satellite-related computation needs to be carried out to create a city model. This is an expensive technique, because it requires many resources and excessive computational cost. The authors propose a methodology to create a digital city model including 3D building model and land cover information from a single high resolution satellite image. The approach consists of image pan-sharpening, shadow recovery, building occlusion restoration, building model extraction, and land cover classification. We create a digital city model using a single KOMPSAT-2 image and review the result.

To product the map by terrestrial photogrammetry method, a few rather nuisance stereo image acquiring processing and plot using expensive analytical instruments have to be performed. In this study, plot was made by acquiring and rectification image using simple method rather than above it. For this, geometry rectification system was constructed for the generation of single ortho-image analysis. and these ortho-images of architecture were made and analysed by appling various warping methods. As a result, the performance of single image analysis could be estimated, and it is expected that the application of this is possible to various non-topographic photogrammetry.
