In this paper, we propose a human face detection algorithm using adaptive skin color model and neural networks. To attain robustness in the changes of illumination and variability of human skin color, we perform a color segmentation of input image by thresholding adaptively in modified hue-saturation color space (TSV). In order to distinguish faces from other segmented objects, we calculate invariant moments for each face candidate and use the multilayer perceptron neural network of backpropagation algorithm. The simulation results show superior performance for a variety of poses and relatively complex backgrounds, when compared to other existing algorithm.

This paper describes an efficient thresholding method for the binarization of a grey-level letter image. This method determines the adaptive threshold for letter image binarization by introducing the readjusting parameter, based on the global variance of the input image. Experimental results show that the proposed binarization method outperforms on the various letter images with a texture or noise when compared to the other methods.

실시간 VoIP 네트워크는 지연, 지터 그리고 패킷손실과 같은 네트워크 장애요소로 인해 품질저하가 발생한다. 본 논문은 VoIP 음질 향상을 위해 잡음환경에 강인한 음성분류기반의 패킷손실 은닉 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 방식에서는 음성신호로부터 추출된 다양한 특징들을 분석하고 이를 기반으로 획득된 적응적인 문턱값을 사용하여 수신단에 도착한 패킷을 분류한다. 정확한 신호분류 결과는 패킷손실 은닉에 사용된다. 그리고 선형 예측 기반의 손실패킷 은닉은 연속적으로 패킷을 은닉하거나 손실된 패킷복원 시 발생하는 메탈릭 아티펙트를 제거함으로써 고품질의 음성을 제공한다.

In this paper we suggest a development of surface defect inspection algorithms for cold mill strip. The defects which exist in a surface of cold mill strip have a scattering or singular distribution. This paper consists of preprocessing, feature extraction and defect classification. By preprocessing, the binarized defect image is achieved. In this procedure, Top-hit transform, adaptive thresholding, thinning and noise rejection are used. Especially, Top-hit transform using local min/max operation diminishes the effect of bad lighting. In feature extraction, geometric, moment and co-occurrence matrix features are calculated. For the defect classification, multilayer neural network is used. The proposed algorithm showed 15% error rate.

A fast intra skip detection algorithm based on the ratedistortion (RD) cost for an inter frame (P-slices) is proposed for H.264/AVC video encoding. In the H.264/AVC coding standard, a robust rate-distortion optimization technique is used to select the best coding mode and reference frame for each macroblock (MB). There are three types of intra predictions according to profiles. These are $16{\times}16$ and $4{\times}4$ intra predictions for luminance and an $8{\times}8$ intra prediction for chroma. For the high profile, an $8{\times}8$ intra prediction has been added for luminance. The $4{\times}4$ prediction mode has 9 prediction directions with 4 directions for $16{\times}16$ and $8{\times}8$ luma, and $8{\times}8$ chrominance. In addition to the inter mode search procedure, an intra mode search causes a significant increase in the complexity and computational load for an inter frame. To reduce the computational load of the intra mode search at the inter frame, the RD costs of the neighborhood MBs for the current MB are used and we propose an adaptive thresholding scheme for the intra skip extraction. We verified the performance of the proposed scheme through comparative analysis of experimental results using joint model reference software. The overall encoding time was reduced up to 32% for the IPPP sequence type and 35% for the IBBPBBP sequence type.

A wavelet method is presented in order to improve the computational efficiency of two dimensional unsteady flow problems while maintaining the order of accuracy of conventional CFD schemes. First, by using the interpolating wavelet transformation including decomposition and thresholding, an adaptive dataset to a solution is constructed. Then, inviscid and viscous fluxes are calculated only at the points within an adaptive dataset, which enhances the computational efficiency. Second, thresholding step is modified to maintain the spatial and temporal accuracy of conventional CFD schemes automatically by selecting the threshold value between user-defined value and the magnitude of spatial or temporal truncation error. The wavelet method suggested in this study is successfully applied to various unsteady flow problems and it is shown that the computational efficiency is enhanced with maintaining the computational accuracy of CFD schemes.

We propose a new method to extract valid lines from a visual image. Unsupervised clustering method is used to assign each line to any of the line groups according to its orientation. During the low-level image processing we use an adaptive threshold method to reduce human supervision and to automate the processing sequence. To reduce the misclassification rate and to suppress the superiors line support regions at the clustering stage, the adaptive threshold method is consistently applied. Performing principal component analysis on each line support region provides an efficient method of obtaining line equation. Finally we adopt the theory of robust statistics to guarantee the quality of each extracted line and to eliminate the lines of poor quality. We present the experimental results to verify our method. With the proposed method, one can extract the lines according to the internal orientation similarities and integrate the whole process into one adaptive procedure.

An adaptive wavelet transformation method with high order accuracy is proposed to allow efficient and accurate flow computations. While maintaining the original numerical accuracy of a conventional solver, the scheme offers efficient numerical procedure by using only adapted dataset. The main algorithm includes 3rd order wavelet decomposition and thresholding procedure. After the wavelet transformation, 3rd order of spatial and temporal accurate high order interpolation schemes are executed only at the points of the adapted dataset. For the other points, high order of interpolation method is utilized for residual evaluation. This high order interpolation scheme with high order adaptive wavelet transformation was applied to unsteady Euler flow computations. Through these processes, both computational efficiency and numerical accuracy are validated even in case of high order accurate unsteady flow computations.

디지털 카메라, 멀티미디어 등의 보급으로 인하여 일상생활 전반에서 영상이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 영상은 잡음에 의해 열화가 발생하고, 화질개선을 위한 잡음제거 기술의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 잡음제거를 위한 기존의 방법들에는 워너 필터, 평균 필터, VisuShrink 등이 있지만, 미흡한 잡음제거성능을 나타낸다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 영상 잡음 제거를 위해, 위너 필터 및 변형된 웨이브렛 기반의 적응 임계값과 thresholding 함수를 이용한 하이브리드 필터 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법은 기존의 방법들에 비해, 저주파 특성과 고주파 특성을 동시에 나타내고, 우수한 잡음제거 및 에지보존 특성을 나타냈다.
