최근 초고화질 영상, 가상현실 등 프리미엄 콘텐츠에 대한 요구가 커지면서 360° VR과 8K TV 등의 시장이 확대되고 있다. 360° VR 영상을 만드는 데에 스티칭 기술이 사용되고 있고, 8K 영상을 촬영할 수 있는 장비는 매우 제한적이기 때문에 스티칭 기술을 통해 콘텐츠를 확보하려는 노력이 이어지고 있다. 스티칭 기술은 여러 영상을 합성하여 기존 카메라의 좁은 시야각 문제를 해결하고 보다 넓은 시야각의 영상을 만드는 기술이다. 최근에는 해당 분야에 관한 연구가 진행됨에 따라 이미지를 넘어 동영상 스티칭에 대한 연구가 주로 진행되고 있다, 기존 동영상 스티칭 방식은 이미지 스티칭 방식을 프레임마다 반복하기 때문에 시간이 오래 걸린다는 단점이 있다. 컴퓨터 비전 분야에서는 딥러닝을 활용하여 객체가 존재할 것으로 예측되는 부분에 사각형 모양의 경계 상자(Bounding box)를 생성하는 객체 탐지(Object detection) 분야에 관한 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔고 이를 기반으로 객체의 경계선을 검출하여 해당 영역만을 구분하는 객체 분할(Instance segmentation)에 대한 연구 또한 진행 중이다. 본 논문에서는 앞서 말한 스티칭 속도 문제를 해결하기 위하여 빠른 속도로 객체 분할이 가능한 YOLACT를 이용하여 스티칭 속도를 개선하는 방안을 제안한다.

The construction industry has the highest occupational accidents/injuries and has experienced the most fatalities among entire industries. Korean government installed surveillance camera systems at construction sites to reduce occupational accident rates. Construction safety managers are monitoring potential hazards at the sites through surveillance system; however, the human capability of monitoring surveillance system with their own eyes has critical issues. A long-time monitoring surveillance system causes high physical fatigue and has limitations in grasping all accidents in real-time. Therefore, this study aims to build a deep learning-based safety monitoring system that can obtain information on the recognition, location, identification of workers and heavy equipment in the construction sites by applying multiple object tracking with instance segmentation. To evaluate the system's performance, we utilized the Microsoft common objects in context and the multiple object tracking challenge metrics. These results prove that it is optimal for efficiently automating monitoring surveillance system task at construction sites.

It is considered that the construction industry is one of the pivotal players in the national economy in terms of Gross Domestic Production (GDP) and employment. Behind the positive role of this industrial sector to the national economy, the construction industry generates approximately 50 % of the total waste generation from all the industrial sectors. There are several measures to mitigate the adverse impacts of the construction waste such as reduce, reuse and recycle. Recycling would be one of the effective strategies for waste minimisation, which would be able to reduce the demand upon new resources as well as enhance reusing the construction materials on sites. The automated construction waste classification system would make it possible not only to reduce the amount of labour input but also mitigate the possibility of errors during the manual classification process. In this study, we proposed an automated waste segmentation and classification system for recycling the construction and demolition waste in the real construction site context. Since the practical application to the real-world construction sites was one of the significant factors to develop the system, a YOLACT (You Only Look At CoefficienTs) algorithm was chosen to conduct the study. In this study, it is expected that the proposed system would make it possible to enhance the productivity as well as the cost efficiency by reducing the manpower for the construction and demolition waste management at the construction site.

Purpose: Looking at the status of fatal accidents in the construction industry in the 2022 Industrial Accident Status Supplementary Statistics, 27.8% of all fatal accidents in the construction industry are caused by construction equipment. In order to overcome the limitations of tours and inspections caused by the enlargement of sites and high-rise buildings, we plan to build a model that can extract construction equipment using computer vision technology and analyze the model's accuracy and field applicability. Method: In this study, deep learning is used to learn image data from excavators, dump trucks, and mobile cranes among construction equipment, and then the learning results are evaluated and analyzed and applied to construction sites. Result: At site 'A', objects of excavators and dump trucks were extracted, and the average extraction accuracy was 81.42% for excavators and 78.23% for dump trucks. The mobile crane at site 'B' showed an average accuracy of 78.14%. Conclusion: It is believed that the efficiency of on-site safety management can be increased and the risk factors for disaster occurrence can be minimized. In addition, based on this study, it can be used as basic data on the introduction of smart construction technology at construction sites.
