In video surveillance and monitoring (VSAM), extracting foreground by detecting moving regions is the most fundamental step. The foreground extracted, however, includes not only objects in motion but also their shadows, which may cause errors in following video image processing steps. To remove the shadows, this paper presents a new technique to determine shadow pixels in the foreground image of a VSAM camera system. The proposed technique utilizes a fact that the effect of shadowing to each pixel is different defending on its brightness in a background image when determining shadow pixels unlike existing techniques where unified decision criteria are used to all pixels. Such an approach can easily accommodate local features in an image and hold consistent Performance even in changing environment. In real experiments, the proposed technique showed better results compared with an existing technique.

This paper deals with the development of RACOM(Radar Signal Detecting ＆ Processing Computer). RACOM is a radar display system specially designed for radar scan conversion, signal processing and PCI radar image display. RACOM contains two components； i )RSP(Radar Signal Processor) board which is a PCI based board for receiving video, trigger, heading & bearing signals from radar scanner ＆ tranceiver units and processing these signals to generate high resolution radar image, and ⅱ）Applications which perform ordinary radar display functions such as EBL, VRM and so on. Since RACOM is designed to meet a wide variety of specifications(type of output signal from tranceiver unit), to record radar images and to distribute those images in real time to everywhere in a networked environment, it can be applicable to AIS(Automatic Identification System) and VDR(Voyage Data Recorder).

Recently, automatic video monitoring of individual pigs is emerging as an important issue in the management of group-housed pigs. Although a rich variety of studies have been reported on video monitoring techniques in intensive pig farming, it still requires further elaboration. In particular, when there exist adjoining pigs in a crowd pig room, it is necessary to have a way of separating adjoining pigs from the perspective of an image processing technique. In this paper, we propose an efficient image segmentation solution using both spatio-temporal information and region growing method for the identification of individual pigs in video surveillance systems. The experimental results with the videos obtained from a pig farm located in Sejong illustrated the efficiency of the proposed method.

This paper proposed an adaptive threshold method for detecting flame candidate regions in a infrared image and it adapts according to the contrast and intensity changes in the image. Conventional flame detection systems uses fixed threshold method since surveillance environment does not change, once the system installed. But it needs a adaptive threshold method as requirements of surveillance system has changed. The proposed adaptive threshold algorithm uses the dynamic behavior of flame as featured parameter. The test result is analysed by comparing test result of proposed adaptive threshold algorithm and conventional fixed threshold method. The analysed data shows, the proposed method has 91.42% of correct detection rate and false detection is reduced by 20% comparing to the conventional method.

비디오 해석 및 추적기술은 특정한 시스템에서만 적용되는 것이 아니다. 이것은 비디오 내에서 의미 있는 정보를 능동적으로 감시 대상을 정의, 해석, 모델화, 추정 및 추적 할 수 있는 기반 기술을 의미하다. 일반적으로 감시시스템에서 감시 대상은 사람이나 차량이며, 상황에 따라 출입통제 구역으로 설정하기도 한다. 이는 연속된 영상에서 객체의 형태, 모양, 행동 분석, 움직임, 색상정보를 가지고 데이터 정의, 검출, 모델화를 통하여 인식, 식별 그리고 추적한다. 본 논문에서는 비디오 영상분석을 통해 단일카메라기반의 감시시스템과 PTZ 카메라기반 감시시스템 제안한다. 이때 단일 카메라기반의 감시는 배경생성방법을 이용하여 연속된 영상내의 객체를 지속적으로 관리가 가능하도록 설계하였고, PTZ 카메라기반의 감시는 카메라의 이동에 따른 배경안정화 방법과 카메라의 절대좌표를 활용하여 카메라 이동을 제어함과 동시에 오검출 문제를 해결하였다. 실험 및 결과분석으로는 시나리오 환경에서 배경생성방법을 이용한 검출의 정확성과 PTZ카메라 위치 변화에도 강인한 검출 결과를 비교 분석하였다.

In this study, cutting slope's digital image has acquired by using video camera attached at RC helicopter. Resulted RMSE from image processing was approximately x-direction 0.27m, y-direction 0.23m and z-direction 0.35m. Application of these methods makes it convenient that acquisition of digital image about before and after the construction work of road cutting slope. Also systematical cutting slope's information acquisition will be possible by cutting slope's quantitative and qualitative analysis.

This paper was studied in two ways with respect to the information received from the video signal separation technique of PPI Scop radar device. The proposed technique consists in generating an image signal through the video signal separation and synthesis, symbol generation, the residual image signal generation process. This technology can greatly improve the operating convenience with improved ease of discrimination, screen readability for the operator in analyzing radar information. The first proposed method was constructed for high-speed FPGA-based information processing systems for high speed operation stability of the system. The second proposed method was implemented intelligent algorithms and a software algorithm function curve associated resources.This was required to meet the constraints on the radar information, analysis system. Existing radar systems have not the frame data analysis unit image. However, this study was designed to image data stored in the frame-by-frame analysis of radar images with express information MPEG4 video. Key research content is to highlight the key observations expresses the target, the object-specific monitoring information to the positive image processing algorithm and the function curve delays. For high-definition video, high-speed to implement data analysis and expressing a variety of information was applied to the ARM Processor Support in Pro ASIC3.

Recently, structure safety management techniques using cutting-edge technology(Displacement senor, sensor of acceleration) has emerged as an important issue owing to the aging of infrastructure such as bridge and building. In general, the structural monitoring system for structure safety management is based on IT technology and it is expensive to install. In this paper developed an image-based structure dynamic characteristic analysis system prototype to assess the damage of structure in a more cost-effective way than traditional structure health monitoring system. The inspector can take a video of buildings or other structures with digital camera or any other devices that is passible to take video, and then using NCC calculation for image processing technique to get natural frequency. This system is analysis of damage of the structure using a compare between the frequency response ratio and functions when problems are occurs send alarm to administrator. This system is easier to install and remove than previous monitoring sensor in economical way.

In recent years, video detection systems have been implemented in various infrastructures such as airport, public transportation, power generation system, water dam and so on. Recognizing moving objects in video sequence is an important problem in computer vision, with applications in several fields, such as video surveillance and target tracking. Segmentation and tracking of multiple vehicles in crowded situations is made difficult by inter-object occlusion. In the system described in this paper, the mean shift algorithm is firstly used to filter and segment a color vehicle image in order to get candidate regions. These candidate regions are then analyzed and classified in order to decide whether a candidate region contains a license plate or not. And then some characters in the license plate is recognized by using the fuzzy ARTMAP neural network, which is a relatively new architecture of the neural network family and has the capability to learn incrementally unlike the conventional BP network. We finally design a license plate recognition system using the mean shift algorithm and fuzzy ARTMAP neural network and show its performance via some computer simulations.
