  • 비디오 부호화 기법에서 압축률 및 화질을 결정하는 중요한 부분인 움직임 예측 및 보상(motion estimation and compensation)의 성능을 개선하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 가장 기본적인 움직임 예측 기법인 전역 탐색 방법은 가장 좋은 화질을 보이지만, 현재 프레임의 각 블록과 가장 유사한 블록을 찾기 위하여 탐색영역(search area)내의 모든 점에 대해 탐색을 수행하므로 그 계산량이 매우 많게 된다. 따라서 좋은 화질을 유지하면서 계산량을 낮추기 위한 많은 고속 알고리즘이 제안되었는데, MPEG-4 표준에 채택된 PMVFAST는 움직임 벡터 간의 상관도를 이용하여 계산량을 낮추면서도 전역 탐색 기법에 근접한 화질을 보인다. 본 논문에서는 움직임 벡터의 예측을 위하여 중간값(median) 계산법에 의한 새로운 방법을 제안하고, 이를 이용하여 움직임 예측의 계산량을 획기적으로 줄일 수 있음을 보인다. 실험결과 제안한 알고리즘은 PMVFAST보다 빠르면서도 전역 탐색 기법보다 높은 평균 PNSR을 보인다.

  • The visual preference of interiors focusing on lobbies was investigated as a function of six predictor variable on the base of the Informational Approach: complexity, coherence, mystery, spaciousness, brightness, plant. The Common Fcator Analysis of preference ratings yielded six common factors which helped to account for 22.3 percent of the variance in preference response to the scene. Among these factors, the factor defined as 'bright with many plants' was the most preferred and the factor defined as 'simple and closed' was the least preferred. The environmental attributes reflected in six groups of scenes were colour, resting place, window and the six predictors. In the commercial building scenes, complexity, spaciousness, coherence, brightness and mystery out of six predictors accounted for 74 percent of preference variance as the significant contributors. In the business building scenes, three predictors which are brightness, complexity, spaciousness accounted for 84 percent of preference variance. 'The amount of plant' not only influenced the preference indirectly through the intervening variable, complexity, but also was moderately correlated with brightness. The overall pattern of the resulted confirmed the usefulness of the Informational Approach to predict the preference in interiors focusing on lobbies.

  • 트랜스코딩은 한 가지 형태로 부호화된 멀티미디어 데이터를 서로 다른 재생 데이터율을 요구하는 이질적인 클라이언트에게 적응적으로 전달하기 위한 해결책이다 따라서, 트랜스코딩 기법은 입력 스트림을 복호시켜 클라이언트가 요구한 출력 스트림으로 부호화하는 것이 필요하다. 일반적으로, 계산량을 줄이기 위해서 제안된 트랜스코딩 기법들은 비디오 화질의 열화를 발생시키고 그와 반대의 경우는 많은 계산량을 초래한다. 이와 같은 계산량과 화질 사이의 문제를 해결하기 위해서 여러 가지 기법들이 연구되었다. 하지만, 대부분의 연구가 트랜스코더 내부에 한정되어 있었고, 서버 측과의 상호작용을 통한 성능 향상에 대한 연구는 적었다. 멀티미디어 데이터를 전력과 성능이 낮은 단말기 또는 낮은 대역폭의 네트워크에 속한 이질적인 클라이언트로 서비스할 때, 트랜스코더 자체의 해결 방안에 서버 측에의 특정 작업을 추가할 경우 트랜스코더에서 실제 처리해야 하는 프레임의 개수를 줄일 수 있고 이를 통해서 서비스 효율의 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 효율적인 트랜스코더와 서버 측 기반의 알고리즘을 함께 고려하여 계산 처리 과정을 줄일 수 있는 프레임 제거 트랜스코더 시스템 구조를 제안한다.

  • The purpose of this study is to recognize the differences of visual evaluation by variations in silhouette of the wide pants. The stimuli are 9 samples: One control group, 3 variations of the width of hem line and 3 variations of the silhouette. The data has been obtained from 57 fashion college students. The data has been analyzed by Factor Analysis, Anova, Scheffe's Test. The results of the study are as follows: The visual evaluation by silhouette of wide pants are composed of 5 factors(i.e., physical characteristics, complexity, attractiveness, originality, and stiffness and softness). Among these factors, the physical characteristic is evaluated to be the most important factor. The straight pants were the most attractive and modern when the width of the hem line was 66cm (1st stage), while the pants were uncomfortable and unwearable when the width of the hem line was 98cm (3rd stage). The bell-bottom pants were evaluated to be the most attractive with the average width of the hem line. When the width of the hem line of the flare pants were too wide, it was uncomfortable and unwearable but had its unique originality. When the width of the hem line was narrow, the visual image changed as the pants' silhouette varied. However, when the width of the hem line was wide, the visual image did not change by silhouette.

  • 본 연구는 수량에 의한 수면폭의 변화로 인한 하천경관의 시각적 선호도에 미치는 선호요인을 파악하기 위하여 "주변 환경이 일정할 때 수량에 의한 수면폭은 어떠한 요인에 의해 선호되어지는가?"에 대한 연구의문에서 출발하여 영산강경관의 수면폭에 미치는 선호요인을 구명하고 가장 선호되어진 경관의 수면폭/하폭비를 산정하여 시각적 선호도에 의한 필요유량을 산정하였다. 수면폭 변화에 따른 영산강 경관의 시각적 선호요인 변수는 먼저 영산교의 경우 개방감 인자, 물리적 특성 인자, 복잡성 인자 등 3개의 변수, 임곡교의 경우 복잡성 인자, 심미성 인자, 물리적 특성 인자 등 3개 변수로서 모두 유의성이 있는 것으로 판명되었다. 다중회귀모형에서 도시하천경관일 경우 물리적영향이 시각적 선호도에 가장 크게 영향을 미치며, 자연하천경관일 경우 복잡성정도가 가장 크게 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 필요유량의 수면폭/하폭비는 0.5에서 0.7정도의 비율을 가장 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 수면폭 변화에 따른 영산강 경관의 시각적 평가에 의한 요인 분석 결과와 하천의 필요유량은 하천경관을 조성하는데 많은 기여를 할 것이며, 이용자의 만족을 극대화할 수 있을 것이다.

  • The purpose of this study is to research the influence of soundscape in the preference of landscape. Specifically, standards type of communication are applied to the landscape such as positive scenery and negative scenery. The spatial image was analyzed by the variables of Kaplan\`s information process model. The level of visual preferences was measured by a type of acoustic information and visual information in the landscape, and this data was analyzed by multiple regression. The results of this study can be summarized as follows; The value of landscape preference was maximum value in Type I and minimum value in Type II from all fluent of coherence, mystery, and legibility to, except complexity, and it was not different from preference. These results clearly show the influence of sounds effecting decision of landscape preference. It was different by the type of acoustic information and visual information in landscape. The results of ANOVA among types of acoustic information were differences of mean between positive sound, no sound and negative sound from coherence, mystery, and legibility to, except complexity. These variables may be the major factors which must be considered in planning and designing as the functional basis for quantitative analysis.

  • The continuous increase of the spatial resolution of remote sensing images brings great challenge to image analysis and processing. Traditional prior knowledge-based region detection and target recognition algorithms for processing high resolution remote sensing images generally employ a global searching solution, which results in prohibitive computational complexity. In this paper, a more efficient region of interest (ROI) detection algorithm based on visual attention and threshold segmentation (VA-TS) is proposed, wherein a visual attention mechanism is used to eliminate image segmentation and feature detection to the entire image. The input image is subsampled to decrease the amount of data and the discrete moment transform (DMT) feature is extracted to provide a finer description of the edges. The feature maps are combined with weights according to the amount of the "strong points" and the "salient points". A threshold segmentation strategy is employed to obtain more accurate region of interest shape information with the very low computational complexity. Experimental statistics have shown that the proposed algorithm is computational efficient and provide more visually accurate detection results. The calculation time is only about 0.7% of the traditional Itti's model.

  • In order to examine theoretical underpinnings of preference for built forms, 129 subjects are asked to rate a series of 9 slides of residential houses depicting a wide range of architectural styles on a 5 point scale, for coherence, complexity, excitement, familiarity, and natural harmony, respectively. Based on Lee's (2002a, 2002b) two previous studies addressing the issue of aesthetic beauty evaluation for man-made creatures (e.g., residential housing scenes), this study summarizes several meaningful findings. As reported by all the subjects, first, both "desire to visit" and "desire to live in" turned out to be a good predictor of preference as the two measures are highly correlated in statistically significant levels (99.9%). People who desire to visit a spot are more likely to desire to live in it. Second, Pearson's correlations showed that coherence is the opposite end of complexity. The more likely a housing setting is hanging together, the less likely it looks to be complex. Overall, though, it is not clear that the two variables work directly in that way, as weighted on preference ratings. That is, coherence and complexity are likely to be totally two independent systems that affect the ratings of preference. Third, both excitement and environmental sensitivity (e.g., harmony of a house with its surrounding nature) most highly account for the preference for various housing scenes, while familiarity has only a little effect on preference ratings. Possibly, people like or dislike a visual thing, no matter how much they are familiar with it. Finally, this study suggested that design professionals could communicate effectively with their clients if sets of visual standards as an appropriate communication tool for better design are properly established.

  • In this paper, an efficient texture compression method is proposed for fast rendering, which exploits the spatial correlation among blocks through intra-picture block matching. Texture mapping is widely used to enhance the visual quality of results in real-time rendering applications. For fast texture mapping, it is necessary to identify an effective trade-off between compression efficiency and computational complexity. The conventional compression methods utilized for image processing (e.g., JPEG) provide high compression efficiency while resulting in high complexity. Thus, low complexity methods, such as ETC1, are often used in real-time rendering applications. Although these methods can achieve low complexity, the compression efficiency is still lower than that of JPEG. To solve this problem, we propose a texture compression method by reducing the spatial redundancy between blocks in order to achieve the better compression performance than ETC1 while maintaining complexity that is lower than that of JPEG. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves better compression efficiency than ETC1, and the decoding time is significantly reduced compared to JPEG while similar to ETC1.
