카메라를 이용하는 시각(visual) SLAM(Simultaneous Localization And Mapping)은 로봇의 위치 등을 파악하는데 널리 이용되고 있다. 일반적으로 시각 SLAM은 움직임이 없는 고정된 특징점을 대상으로 연속적인 시퀀스 상에서 카메라의 움직임을 추정한다. 따라서 이동하는 객체가 많이 존재하는 상황에서는 안정적인 결과를 기대하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이동 객체가 많은 상황에서 스테레오 카메라를 이용한 SLAM을 안정화하는 방법을 제안한다. 먼저, 스테레오 카메라를 이용하여 깊이영상을 추출하고 옵티컬 플로우를 계산한다. 그리고 좌우 영상의 옵티컬 플로우를 이용하여 시차변화(disparity change)를 계산한다. 그리고 깊이 영상에서 사람과 같이 움직이는 객체에 대한 ROI(Region Of Interest)를 구한다. 실내 상황에서는 벽과 같은 정적인 평면들이 움직이는 영역으로 잘못 판단되는 경우가 자주 발생한다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해 깊이 영상을 X-Z 평면으로 사영하고 허프(hough) 변환하여 장면을 구성하는 평면을 결정한다. 앞의 과정에서 판단된 이동 객체 중에서 벽과 같은 장면 요소를 제외한다. 제안된 방법을 통해 정적인 특징점이 요구되는 SLAM의 성능을 보다 안정화할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

본 논문은 줌-렌즈로 취득한 비디오 영상에 대해서 줌-렌즈의 왜곡을 자동으로 보상할 수 있는 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 먼저, 초점거리의 증가에 따라 렌즈의 왜곡 계수가 비선형적으로 단조 감소하는 특징으로부터 초점거리와 렌즈 왜곡 계수로 표현되는 비선형 줌-렌즈 왜곡 모델을 정의하였다. 그리고 취득한 비디오 영상으로부터 몇 장의 샘플 영상을 선정하고, 이 샘플영상에 대한 초점거리와 렌즈 왜곡 계수는 기존의 방법들을 이용하여 측정하였다. 이렇게 측정한 초점거리와 렌즈 왜곡 계수들로 부터 줌-렌즈 왜곡 모델을 최적화 시켰다. 최적화된 줌-렌즈 왜곡 모델은 각 비디오 영상의 초점거리를 입력으로 하여 렌즈 왜곡계수를 자동으로 계산할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법은 다양한 실사 영상과 비디오 영상에 적용하여 그 성능을 검증하였으며, 화질의 열화 없이 영상의 왜곡을 보상할 수 있었다.

Embryonic lethal abnormal visual (elav) is a lethal gene in Drosophila inducing the abnormal development and function of nervous system. We cloned a Bm-elav gene by bioinformatics and biological experiment, based on sequence of ELAV protein and dbEST of Bombyx mori. The full-length of Bm-elav cDNA is 1498 bp, contains a 906 bp open read frame (ORF) encoding a precursor of 301 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular weight of 34 kDa and pI of 8.99. Bm-ELAV protein precursor contains three RNA recognition motifs (RRM) in $24{\sim}91$, $110{\sim}177$ and $222{\sim}295$ bit amino acid residues respectively, and belongs to RNA-binding protein family. Bm-ELAV shared varying positives, ranging from 56% to 60% (Identities from 41% to 45%), with RRM from other species of Xenopus tropicalis, Apis mellifera, Tribolium castaneum, Branchiostoma belcheri and Drosophila. Gene localization indicated that Bm-elav is a single-copy gene, gene mapping within 12-chromosome from 7916.68 knt to 7918.16 knt region of nscaf2993. Spatiotemporal expressions pattern analysis revealed that Bm-elav expressed higher in most tested tissues and developmental stages in whole generation, such as silk gland, fat body, midgut, hemopoietic organ and ovary, but almost no expression in terminated diapause eggs. This suggested that the expression of Bm-elav in early developmental embryonic stages might induce abnormal development like in Drosophila. Cloning of the Bm-elav gene enables us to test its potential role in controlling pests by transferring the gene into field lepidopteran insects in the future.

일반적인 워터마킹 기술들은 영상의 특성을 고려하지 않은 채 신체 책인 영상에 워터마크를 삽입하는 경우가 많다 본 논문에서는 워터마킹 알고리즘을 웨이브렛을 기반으로 구현을 하였으며, 견고한 워터마크 삽입을 위해 Multi-Threshold Watermark Coding(MTWC)의 원리에 기초하여 Region of Interest(ROI)라고 불리우는 영상의 영역에 큰 계수를 찾아 워터마크를 삽입하게 된다. 이때 Human Visual System(HVS)을 이용하여 견고성과 비가시성의 향상을 도모하였다. 워터마크 삽입대역은 중주파 대역에 삽입을 하게 되는데 중주파 대역에 삽입한 워터마크는 어떠한 영상 처리과정 후에도 높은 비율의 추출을 보였으며, 워터마크가 삽입된 영상의 왜곡정도도 다른 대역보다 상대적으로 적게 나타나므로 중주파 대역에 워터마크를 삽입하였다. 워터마크는 의사 랜덤 시퀀스(Pseudo Random Sequence)로 구성되어 있고 워터마크의 검출은 Cox의 유사도 측정식을 이용하여 워터마크의 삽입여부를 판단한다

This research regards that experiencing certain space according to looking through sensations of body will finally make visual perceptional experience to happen. Our bodies incorporate sensible experience along with interactions with surrounding environment while making movements. The analysis of Seongyojang in Gangleung through top and bottom, depth, movement and experience space which are Merleau Ponty's phenomenological space elements has led to the following conclusions. First, the up and down directivity inherent in Seongyojang has different directions in movements by the axis of plane. Second, the depth by the correlation between things and bodies shows the interactions with things and the depth of space rendered by the servants' quarters of '一字形' and the overlapping effect from the movement between buildings can be seen and felt. Third, mobility is focused on the surroundings for the movements of body and thing. Fourth, the experienced space remains as what it is and is experienced through the experience of traditional cultures. The temporality where the past and the present subsist is given with the application of the modern living pattern in the traditional space. That is, the space from the point of phenomenological view makes the visual-perceptual experience possible through the senses of body, with which the space is experienced and sensed. In other words, the space from the phenomenological viewpoint makes visual-perceptual experience possible through the senses of body so that the space may be experienced and perceived. Through this study, a new viewpoint toward Korean traditional space is expected to be discovered.

Purpose: Differentiating between glioblastoma and solitary metastasis is very important for the planning of further workup and treatment. We assessed the ability of various morphological parameters using conventional MRI and diffusion-based techniques to distinguish between glioblastomas and solitary metastases in tumoral and peritumoral regions. Materials and Methods: We included 38 patients with solitary brain tumors (21 glioblastomas, 17 solitary metastases). To find out if there were differences in the morphologic parameters of enhancing tumors, we analyzed their shape, margins, and enhancement patterns on postcontrast T1-weighted images. During analyses of peritumoral regions, we assessed the extent of peritumoral non-enhancing lesion on T2- and postcontrast T1-weighted images. We also aimed to detect peritumoral neoplastic cell infiltration by visual assessment of T2-weighted and diffusion-based images, including DWI, ADC maps, and exponential DWI, and evaluated which sequence depicted peritumoral neoplastic cell infiltration most clearly. Results: The shapes, margins, and enhancement patterns of tumors all significantly differentiated glioblastomas from metastases. Glioblastomas had an irregular shape, ill-defined margins, and a heterogeneous enhancement pattern; on the other hand, metastases had an ovoid or round shape, well-defined margins, and homogeneous enhancement. Metastases had significantly more extensive peritumoral T2 high signal intensity than glioblastomas had. In visual assessment of peritumoral neoplastic cell infiltration using T2-weighted and diffusion-based images, all sequences differed significantly between the two groups. Exponential DWI had the highest sensitivity for the diagnosis of both glioblastoma (100%) and metastasis (70.6%). A combination of exponential DWI and ADC maps was optimal for the depiction of peritumoral neoplastic cell infiltration in glioblastoma. Conclusion: In the differentiation of glioblastoma from solitary metastatic lesions, visual morphologic assessment of tumoral and peritumoral regions using conventional MRI and diffusion-based techniques can also offer diagnostic information.

We have cloned a cDNA for an opsin (Boceropsin) from the silkworm larval brain which was suggested to contain the photoperiodic receptor. Its deduced amino acid sequence was composed of 381 amino acids and included amino acid residues highly conserved in insect visual pigments. This opsin belonged to the long wavelength photoreceptor group of insect opsins, and are presumed to be photoperiodic receptor. RT-PCR analysis revealed that Boceropsin mRNA is expressed in the larval brain, but not in the subesophageal (Sg) and thoracic ganglion. Immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated that Boceropsin protein is present bilaterally in some defined cells localized in the brain of the Bombyx larva. Boceropsin was considered not to be involved in the circadian photoreception, because carotenoids are not indispensable for the photoreception and formation of circadian rhythms in the silkworm.

This study investigates display station physical adjustments preferred by a sample of visual display terminal operators. Participants in the study were selected to assure representation of extremely short and extremely tall persons, as well as persons of midrange physical stature. Individual operators were led through a step-by-step sequence to determine their preferred initial settings of seat height, keyboard height and slope angle, and CRT height and tilt angle. Each operator then performed a brief text input tase, after which final preferred adjustments were measured. Intermeasure correlation strongly suggest that "flat" (low slope angle) keyboards are in appropriate for short operators who select low seat heights. In addition, the keyboard angle adjustments preferred by most operators substantially exceed a current German ergonomic display station requirement.

Numerous challenges have been made to retrieve video using the contents. Recently MPEG-7 had set up a set of visual descriptors for such purpose of searching and retrieving multimedia data. Among them, color and motion descriptors are employed to develop a content-based video retrieval system to search for videos that have similar characteristics in terms of color and motion features of the video sequence. In this paper, the performance of the proposed system is analyzed and evaluated. Experimental results indicate that the processing time required for a retrieval using MPEG-7 descriptors is relatively short at the expense of the retrieval accuracy.
