반도체 패키지의 마킹검사(marking inspection)를 위해서는 입력 영상으로부터 검사할 패키지의 정확만 위치 검출과 패키지 윗면에 나타난 제작사 로고, 문자, Pin1 딤플의 추출이 필수적이다. 본 연구는 마킹검사를 위한 선행 연구로 마킹검사를 수행할 때, 검사할 IC 패키지의 위치와 방향을 정확하게 검출하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. IC 패키지의 외곽을 구성하는 리드의 명도 값은 트레이의 명도 값과 큰 차이를 나타낸다. 그러나 IC 패키지의 방향을 나타내는 Pin1 딤플은 배경과 동일한 색상으로 다만 약간 오목하게 들어가서 명도 값의 차이가 미세하다. 이러한 두 가지 상이한 특징을 효과적으로 처리하기 위하여 적응적 다중 이진화 방법을 제시하였다. 76개의 명도 영상에 대한 실험 결과 제안된 이진화 방법은 매우 효과적이었으며, 이진화된 영상으로부터 IC 패키지의 정확한 위치 검출과 방향 확인이 가능하였다.

지하철 실내의 표지판은 다양한 정보들을 포함하고 있다. 그 중에서 시설물의 형상을 단순화하여 나타낸 픽토그램 사인은 국제적으로 표준화 되어 있어 검출이 용이하다고 볼 수 있다. 일반적으로 객체를 인식하는 방법은 후보영역을 설정하는 검출단계와 후보영역을 인식하는 단계로 나뉘어 진다. 본 논문에서는 후보영역 검출단계에서 단일 값을 가지는 이진화로 픽토그램 영역이 분리가 잘 안되는 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 적응적 이진화를 사용하였고 인식을 위한 특징추출로 HOG서술자를 사용하고 학습과 인식에는 SVM을 사용하였다. 실험 결과를 통하여 HOG서술자로 픽토그램 사인을 인식하는 것이 적합한 것인지 확인한다.

The methods that track and detect motion field based on image difference of successive images from camera can separate motion field and background effectively, but because of noise and background images getting proper difference images is hard to achieve. In this paper we propose a method that can improve difference image quality significantly. Three step process is used. At the first step, existence of motion field is determined, the second step is finding proper threshold value using 'Contrast Streching' technique which enables us to find proper motion field even in complex images. At last step, remaining noise is removed and motion field is determined.

This paper proposes a unique data embedding algorithm for the video sequence. It describes two processings: shot boundary detection and robust data embedding. First, for the shot boundary detection, instead of using absolute frame differences, block by block based relative frame differences are employed. Frame adaptive thresholding values are also employed for the better detection. Second, for the robust data embedding, we generate message template and then convolve and correlate it with carrier signal. And then we embed data on the time domain video sequence. By using these two methods, watermarks into randomly selected frames of shots. Watermarks are detected well even if several certain shots are damaged because we embed watermark into each shot equally.

In this paper, we propose a swarm-based possibilistic c-means(PCM) algorithm in order to overcome the problems of PCM, which are sensitiveness of clustering performance due to initial cluster center's values and producing coincident or close clusters. To settle the former problem of PCM, we adopt a swam-based global optimization method which can be provided the optimal initial cluster centers. Furthermore, to settle the latter problem of PCM, we design an adaptive thresholding model based on the optimized cluster centers that yields preliminary clustered and un-clustered dataset. The preliminary clustered dataset plays a role of preventing coincident or close clusters and the un-clustered dataset is lastly clustered by PCM. From the experiment, the proposed method obtains a better performance than other PCM algorithms on a simulated magnetic resonance(MR) brain image dataset which is corrupted by various noises and bias-fields.

FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) radar system is widely used in autonomous driving and navigation applications due to its high detection capabilities independent of weather conditions and environments. However, radar signals can be easily contaminated by various noises such as speckle noise, receiver saturation, and multipath reflection, which can worsen sensing performance. To handle this problem, we propose a learning-free noise removal technique for radar to enhance detection performance. The proposed method leverages adaptive thresholding to remove speckle noise and receiver saturation, and wavelet transform to detect multipath reflection. After noise removal, the radar image is reconstructed with the geometric structure of the surrounding environments. We verify that our method effectively eliminated noise and can be applied to autonomous driving by improving the accuracy of odometry and place recognition.

On the motivation by an integrative study of multi-omics data, we are interested in estimating the structure of the sparse cross correlation matrix of two high-dimensional random vectors. We rewrite the problem as a multiple testing problem and propose a new method to estimate the sparse structure of the cross correlation matrix. To do so, we test the correlation coefficients simultaneously and threshold the correlation coefficients by controlling FRD at a predetermined level α. Further, we apply the proposed method and an alternative adaptive thresholding procedure by Cai and Liu (2016) to the integrative analysis of the protein expression data (X) and the mRNA expression data (Y) in TCGA breast cancer cohort. By varying the FDR level α, we show that the new procedure is consistently more efficient in estimating the sparse structure of cross correlation matrix than the alternative one.

Recently, buildings tend to be large size, complex shape and functional. As the size of buildings is becoming massive, the need for structural health monitoring(SHM) technique is ever-increasing. Various SHM techniques have been studied for buildings which have different dynamic characteristics and are influenced by various external loads. Generally, the visual inspection and non-destructive test for an accessible point of structures are performed by experts. But nowadays, the system is required which is online measurement and detect risk elements automatically without blind spots on structures. In this study, in order to consider the response of non-linear structures, proposed a signal feature extraction and the adaptive threshold setting algorithm utilized to determine the abnormal behavior by using statistical methods such as control chart, root mean square deviation, generalized extremely distribution. And the performance of that was validated by using the acceleration response of structures during earthquakes measuring system of forced vibration tests and actual operation.

A role of the binarization is very important in separating the foreground and the background in the field of the computer vision. In this study, an adaptive fuzzy binarization is proposed. An ${\alpha}$-cut control ratio is obtained by the distribution of grey level of pixels in a sliding window, and binarization is performed using the value. To obtain the ${\alpha}$-cut, existing thresholding methods which execution speed is fast are used. The threshold values are set as the center of each membership function and the fuzzy intervals of the functions are specified with the distribution of grey level of the pixel. Then ${\alpha}$-control ratio is calculated using the specified function and binarization is performed according to the membership degree of the pixels. The experimental results show the proposed method can segment the foreground and the background well than existing binarization methods and decrease loss of the foreground.

Digital Mammography is an efficient imaging technique for the detection and diagnosis of breast pathological disorders. Six mammographic criteria such as number of cluster, number, size, extent and morphologic shape of microcalcification, and presence of mass, were reviewed and correlation with pathologic diagnosis were evaluated. It is very important to find breast cancer early when treatment can reduce deaths from breast cancer and breast incision. In screening breast cancer, mammography is typically used to view the internal organization. Clusterig microcalcifications on mammography represent an important feature of breast mass, especially that of intraductal carcinoma. Because microcalcification has high correlation with breast cancer, a cluster of a microcalcification can be very helpful for the clinical doctor to predict breast cancer. For this study, three steps of quantitative evaluation are proposed : DoG filter, adaptive thresholding, Expectation maximization. Through the proposed algorithm, each cluster in the distribution of microcalcification was able to measure the number calcification and length of cluster also can be used to automatically diagnose breast cancer as indicators of the primary diagnosis.
