  • Double skin façade is known that several features affected the building energy and daylighting performance. That is why the envelope is able to consist of all architectural materials such as glass, aluminum, wood and insulation for vision of residents and workers in buildings. Its specifications is very diverse according to the building designers and building owners. In recent times, visual environment became a major focus and resulted in the development of cutting edge engineering of diverse glazing systems and shading devices by growing interests of friendly environment. Thus this research has evaluated the fluctuations of interior lighting and atmospheric conditions based on double skin facade systems. Especially in terms of daylighting environment as dependent on solar variations, this research provides quantitative analysis of interior lighting conditions and how it affects the living conditions as well as improve the design of interior spaces.

  • This paper presents the implementation of the real-time object tracking control of the ROBOKER head. The visual servoing technique is used to track the moving object, but suffers from ill-estimated Jacobian of the virtual link design. To improve the tracking performance, the RBF(Radial Basis Function) network is used to compensate for uncertainties in the kinematics of the robot head in on-line fashion. The reference compensation technique is employed as a neural network control scheme. Performances of three schemes, the kinematic based scheme, the Jacobian based scheme, and the neural network compensation scheme are verified by experimental studies. The neural compensation scheme performs best.

  • Recently, mobile video communication is getting more and more popular. Visual quality and computational complexity are primary factors affecting performance of video communication. Frame rate up-conversion (FRC) is necessary for achieving high visual quality in mobile projection displays. In this paper, a FRC method using motion compensation based on block matching algorithm (BMA) with adaptive block size is proposed. In order to improve the accuracy of the estimated motion vectors, the motion vector refinement technique is proposed. Experiment results indicate that the proposed technique exhibits better performance with lower hardware complexity compared to the conventional methods.

  • As consumption of high-quality fruits increases and sales and packaging units become smaller, the demand for automatic fruit grading systems is increasing. Compared to other crops, the quality of fruit is determined by visual characteristics such as shape, color, and scratches, rather than just physical size and weight. Accordingly, this study presents a CNN model that can effectively extract and classify the visual features of fruits and a perceptron that classifies fruits using physical features, and proposes a stacking ensemble model that can effectively combine the classification results of these two neural networks. The experiments with AI Hub public data show that the stacking ensemble model is effective for grading fruits. However, the ensemble model does not always improve the performance of classifying all the fruit grading. So, it is necessary to adapt the model according to the kind of fruit.

  • Despite the rapid strides in content-based image retrieval, a notable disparity persists between the visual features of images and the semantic features discerned by humans. Hence, image retrieval based on the association of semantic similarities recognized by humans with visual similarities is a difficult task for most image-retrieval systems. Our study endeavors to bridge this gap by refining image semantics, aligning them more closely with human perception. Deep learning techniques are used to semantically classify images and retrieve those that are semantically similar to personalized images. Moreover, we introduce a keyword-based image retrieval, enabling automatic labeling of images in mobile environments. The proposed approach can improve the performance of a mobile device with limited resources and bandwidth by performing retrieval based on the visual features and keywords of the image on the mobile device.

  • Nowadays it is required to design intelligent visual surveillance systems which automatically detect abandoned objects in public places to strengthen the social safety. Already recognized abandoned objects can be occluded partially or fully by surrounding people in public places after the first recognition. To improve an essential recognition performance index PAT, the system should overcome the occlusion problems. In this research, a design scheme is newly proposed to construct the robust detection system which is comprised of multiple stages considering the occlusion problem. To show the feasibilities of the proposed system, the evaluation was tried for the prepared image streams including 6 various situations and the experimental results show 96% and 75% in PAT performance for intrusion and abandoning events, respectively. Finally in spite of full occlusions by multiple persons, the proposed system shows the capability to continuously recognize the abandoned object after complex occlusions disappear.

  • The transcoding is a solution which is able to adapt to heterogeneous clients of requesting a different playback rate of multimedia data. Thus, The transcoding needs decoding and encoding. In general, previous studies to reduce complexity have a problem, the degradation of visual quality On the contrary, previous studies to reduce the degradation of visual quality lead to heavy computation. Thus, many researchers have studied a solution between the complexity and the degradation of visual quality. But until now, most researches of this region have dealt with the transcoder itself, such researches about a server's assistance to improve the performance of transcoder is rarely studied. In case of servicing multimedia data to heterogeneous clients which have low capabilities, the assistance of server side is able to reduce frames with processing in the transcoder and improve the performance of the transcoder. Thus in this paper, we propose the frame-skipping transcoder system architecture that takes into consideration transcoder and server side to reduce the complexity of the transcoder.
