A scene changing detection using histogram and header information of H.264 video stream is presented in this paper. The method using histogram is normal to be detect the changing scene. But this technique results in a lot of processing time because video data is compressed and decompressed to video stream and calculated the difference of histogram between scenes on the each frame. The method using H.264 header information is available to detect the scene change at real time without the process of calculation. Histogram and header information is more rapid for scene change detection with being the same performance in precision and recall.

A zero-watermarking algorithm in transform domain based on RGB channel and voting strategy is proposed. The registration and identification of ownership have achieved copyright protection for color images. In the ownership registration, discrete wavelet transform (DWT), discrete cosine transform (DCT), and singular value decomposition (SVD) are used comprehensively because they have the characteristics of multi-resolution, energy concentration and stability, which is conducive to improving the robustness of the proposed algorithm. In order to take full advantage of the characteristics of the image, we use three channels of R, G, and B of a color image to construct three master shares, instead of using data from only one channel. Then, in order to improve security, the master share is superimposed with the copyright watermark encrypted by the owner's key to generate an ownership share. When the ownership is authenticated, copyright watermarks are extracted from the three channels of the disputed image. Then using voting decisions, the final copyright information is determined by comparing the extracted three watermarks bit by bit. Experimental results show that the proposed zero watermarking scheme is robust to conventional attacks such as JPEG compression, noise addition, filtering and tampering, and has higher stability in various common color images.

Steganography techniques can be used to hide data within digital images with little or no visible change in the perceived appearance of the image. I propose a steganalysis to detecting hidden message in sequential steganography. This paper presents adjusted technique for detecting abrupt jumps in the statistics of the stego signal during steganalysis. The repeated statistical test based on CUSUM-SPRT runs constantly until it reaches decision. In this paper, I deal with a new and improved statistic $g_t$ by computing $S^{t^*}_j$.

In this paper, we propose a novel robust blind crypto-watermarking method for medical images security based on hiding of DICOM patient information (patient name, age...) in the medical imaging. The DICOM patient information is encrypted using the AES standard algorithm before its insertion in the medical image. The cover image is divided in blocks of 8x8, in each we insert 1-bit of the encrypted watermark in the hybrid transform domain by applying respectively the 2D-LWT (Lifting wavelet transforms), the 2D-DCT (discrete cosine transforms), and the SVD (singular value decomposition). The scheme is tested by applying various attacks such as noise, filtering and compression. Experimental results show that no visible difference between the watermarked images and the original images and the test against attack shows the good robustness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, a patern recognition method of surface mount device(SMD) IC using wavelet transform and neural network is proposed. We chose the feature parameter according to the characteristics of coefficient matrix which is obtained from four level discrete wavelet transform (DWT). These feature parameters are normalized and then used for the input vector of neural network which is capable of adapting the surroundings such as variation of illumination, arrangement of objects and translation. Experimental results show that when the same form of feature pattern, as is used for learning, is put into neural network and gained 100% rate ofrecognition irrespective of SMD IC kinds, location and variation of illumination. In the case of unused feature pattern for learning, the recognition rate is 85.9% under the similar surroundings, where as an average recognition rate is 96.87% for the case of reregulated value of illumination. Proosed method is relatively simple compared with the traditional space domain method in extracting the feature parameter and is also well suited for recognizing the pattern's class, position and existence. It can also shorten the processing tiem better than method extracting feature parameter with the use of discrete cosine transform(DCT) and adapt the surroundings such as variation of illumination, the arrangement and the translation of SMD IC.

In many multimedia applications, image compression is required to substantially reduce the amount of image data. This compression, however, sometimes brings artifacts. Typical artifacts are blocking artifacts and mosquito noise in DCT-coded images, and ringing artifacts around edges in wavelet-coded images. We propose a new directional postprocessing algorithm, which includes detection of the edge direction, interpolation scheme, and directional nonlinear filtering, to enhance the quality of decoded images. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is as effective as or more effective than other nonlinear filtering techniques.

본 논문에서는 동영상 내용 기반 검색을 위한 표준 인덱스인 color layout descriptor(CLD)에 기반한 새로운 장면전환검출 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 입력 영상을 $8{\times}8$ 블록으로 나누고, 그 블록을 대표하는 대표컬러를 선택하여 DCT 변환 후 추출된 DC, AC 계수에 가중치를 부여한 다음 슬라이딩 윈도우를 적용시켜 장면 전환을 검출한다. 이러한 방법은 영상의 전체적인 특성과 국부적인 특성을 동시에 반영하므로, 조명변화나 물체의 움직임에 민감했던 기존 대표적인 방법인 히스토그램 기반 방법과 에지 변화율을 이용한 방법들이 가지는 문제점을 보완할 수 있다. 또한 제안한 방법은 비디오 검색을 위한 MPEG-7 의 검색 서술자 중의 하나인 CLD를 이용하는데 이러한 CLD 는 컬러의 공간적 분포를 잘 설명하므로 MPEG-7 을 위한 검색 서술자에 적합한 장면전환검출 및 검색이 이루어질 수 있다. 제안한 방법을 실험한 결과 기존의 방법보다 장면전환 검출율이 높게 나타났다.

본 논문에서는 계산의 복잡성을 단순화하고, 얼굴영상에 대해 높은 얼굴 인식률을 얻기 위해 2D-HMM(Midden Markov Model) 얼굴인식 방법을 제안하고 실험하였다. 계산의 복잡성을 줄이기 위해 기존의 픽셀값 대신에 2D-DCT계수를 관측벡터로 사용함으로써 관측벡터의 크기와 인식 시스템의 복잡성을 줄일 수 있었다. 얼굴인식 시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 Yale, ORL의 얼굴 데이터베이스에 대하여 기존의 얼굴인식 방법으로 널리 알려진 Eigenface 방법, LDA 방법과 본 논문에서 제안한 방법인 1D-HMM, 2D-HMM방법의 인식률을 비교 평가하였다. 실험결과 2D-HMM 방법의 인식률이 99.5%로 기존의 얼굴인식 방법들보다 우수한 성능을 나타냈다. 또한 일정 state수에 대해 mixture의 수가 증가할수록 인식결과가 좋아짐을 알 수 있었다.

Recently, the structural similarity (SSIM) index metric is proposed. In the present paper, a new framework, which is called visual SSIM (VSSIM), is proposed by incorporating crucial human factors into the SSIM. The human factors are foveation, luminance, frequency and motion information. The performance of VSSIM is evaluated by subjective quality test compliant with the Video Quality Expert Group (VQEG) multimedia group test plan. It shows that the visual SSIM is more correlated with the subjective quality result than the conventional SSIM.

Nramp2, also known as DMT1 and DCT1, is a 12-transmembrane domain protein responsible for dietary iron uptake as well as metal ions such as lead, manganese, zinc, copper, nickel, cadmium, and cobalt. High expression of DMT1 increase lead uptake, and DMT1-dependent lead transport was H -dependent and inhibited by iron ions. The molecular mechanism of lead transport in CNS is as yet unknown. although interactions between iron and lead at the level of absorption have been known for some time. The process of lead uptake into astrocytes was not known yet. Nramp2 may mediate transport of heavy metal into astrocytes. We investigated whether Nramp2 mediate transport of lead into astrocytes. And we do whether Nramp2 was expressed highly by deprivation of iron in Astrocytes, and lead uptake into astrocytes was influenced by expression of Nramp2. Immortalized human fetal astrocyte(SV-FHA) cells were cultured in medium containing Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium and treated with Deferoxamine. Northern blot analysis was done for determining mRNA level of DMT1 and lead uptake assay was done in incubation condition of pH 5.5 and 7.4.
