In this study, the automatic tracking algorithm tracing a human face is proposed by using YCbCr color coordinated information and its thermal properties expressed in terms of thermal indexes in an infra-red image. The facial candidates are separately estimated in CbCr color and infra-red domain, respectively with applying the morphological image processing operations and the geometrical shape measures for fitting the elliptical features of a human face. The identification of a true face is accomplished by logical 'AND' operation between the refined image in CbCr color and infra-red domain.

전차 조준경으로 사용될 수 있는 2세대 열상장비를 개발하였다. 설계된 장비는 프랑스 Sofradir사의 $480\times6$ 배열 원적외선$(7.7{\mu}m-10.3{\mu}m)$ MCT(HgCdTe) 검출기를 이용하였고, $2.67^{\circ}\times2^{\circ}$의 고배율 협시계와 $10^{\circ}\times7.5^{\circ}$의 저배율 광시계의 이중배율을 가지고 있다. 또한 넓은 운용 온도 범위에서도 시스템의 성능이 저하되지 않도록 비열화 기술을 적용하였다. 설계된 장비는 고효율의 주사장치로 47만 화소의 실시간 영상 재현이 가능하며, 이는 1세대 열상장비에 비하여 화소수가 대폭 증가한 것이다. 적외선 검출소자들의 불균일 보정을 위해서 열전 냉각 소자를 이용한 두 점 보상 기법을 제시하여 실시간 보정이 이루어지게 하였고, 열영상 분포 히스토그램 가변 방식의 처리 기법을 제안하여 적용함으로써 대조비가 매우 낮은 표적의 식별도 용이하게 하였다. 설계 및 제작된 2세대 열상장비의 고배율에서 최소분해가능온도차를 측정한 결과, 2cycles/mrad의 공간주파수에서 0.05K 이하의 우수한 결과를 보였다.

본 연구는 다양한 스케일 조건에서 열화상 이미지를 향상시키기 위한 새로운 캐스케이드 융합 구조를 제안한다. 특정 스케일에 맞춰 설계된 방법들은 다중 스케일에서 열화상 이미지 처리에 한계가 있었다. 이를 극복하기 위해 본 논문에서는 다중 스케일 표현을 활용하는 캐스케이드 특징 융합 기법에 기반한 통합 프레임워크를 제시한다. 서로 다른 스케일의 신뢰도 맵을 순차적으로 융합함으로써 스케일에 제약받지 않는 학습이 가능해진다. 제안된 구조는 상호 스케일 의존성을 강화하기 위해 엔드 투 엔드 방식으로 훈련된 합성곱 신경망으로 구성되어 있다. 실험 결과, 제안된 방법은 기존의 다중 스케일 열화상 이미지 향상 방법들보다 우수한 성능을 보인다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 실험 데이터셋에 대한 성능 분석 결과 이미지 품질 지표가 일관되게 개선되었으며, 이는 캐스케이드 융합 설계가 스케일 간 견고한 일반화를 가능하게 하고 교차 스케일 표현 학습을 더 효율적으로 수행하는 데 기여하는 것을 보여준다.

With the recent increase in the development of military drones, they are adopted and used as the combat system of battalion level or higher. However, it is difficult to use drones that can be used in battles below the platoon level due to the current conditions for the formation of units in the Korean military. In this paper, therefore, we developed a program drones equipped with a thermal imaging camera and LiDAR sensor for reconnaissance and exploration that can be applied in battles below the platoon level. Using these drones, we studied the possibility and feasibility of drones for small-scale combats that can find hidden enemies, search for an appropriate detour through image processing and conduct reconnaissance and search for battlefields, hiding and cover-up through image processing. In addition to the purpose of using the proposed drone to search for an enemies lying in ambush in the battlefield, it can be used as a function to check the optimal movement path when a combat unit is moving, or as a function to check the optimal place for cover-up or hiding. In particular, it is possible to check another route other than the route recommended by the program because the features of the terrain can be checked from various viewpoints through 3D modeling. We verified the possiblity of flying by designing and assembling in a form of adding LiDAR and thermal imaging camera module to a drone assembled based on racing drone parts, which are open source hardware, and developed autonomous flight and search functions which can be used even by non-professional drone operators based on open source software, and then installed them to verify their feasibility.

Variation of temperature field in a Hele-Shaw convection cell was measured by using a HSI true color image processing system and TLC(Thermochromic Liquid Crystal) solution. The relationship between the hue value of TLC color image and real temperature was obtained and this calibration result was used to measure the true temperature. The temperature field in the Hele-Shaw convection cell shows periodic characteristics of 45 sec at Ra = 9.3 * 10$\^$6/. The temperature field measurement technique developed in this study was proved to be a useful and powerful tool for analyzing the unsteady thermal fluid flows.

The electric part of thermal SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy) consists of high voltage generation, lens control, and image processing. Several methodologies for enhancing SEM image are addressed and those results are verified through analyses and experiments. The controller employes a DSP(Digital Signal Processing), making the system more flexible and convenient than the classical analogue based controller. In some parts based the analog circuit, there are inevitable sources of noise and image distortion. The experimental investigation is provided along with analytical proof to enhance the SEM image.

Accurate quantification of plant physiological properties is often necessary for optimal control of an automated greenhouse production system. Conventional crop growth monitoring systems are usually burdensome, inaccurate, and harmful to crops. A thermal image analysis system was used to accomplish rapid and accurate measurements of physiological-property changes of water-stressed crops. Thermal images were obtained from several species of plants that were placed in a growth chamber. Analyzing the images provided the pattern of temperature changes in a leaf and the amount of differences in the temperature of stressed plants and non-stressed plants.

This study aims to extract maximum geological information using the ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection radiometer) images of a part of south India. The area chosen for this study is characterized by rock types such as Migmatite, Magnetite Quartzite, Charnockite, Granite, dykes, Granitoid gneiss and Ultramafic rocks, and minerals such as Bauxite, Magnesite, Iron ores, Calcite etc. Advantage was taken of the characteristic reflectance and absorption phenomenon in the VNIR, SWIR and TIR bands for these rocks and minerals, and they were mapped in detail. Image processing methods such as contrast stretching, PC analysis, band ratios and fusion were used in this study. The results of the processing matched with the field details and showed additional details, thus demonstrating the usefulness of ASTER (especially the SWIR bands) data for better geological mapping.
