사물인터넷 (Internet-of-Things, IoT) 장치들의 개수와 기능은 앞으로 기하급수적으로 증가하고 향상될 것이다. 그러한 장치들은 방대한 양의 시간에 제약을 받는 데이터를 생성할 수도 있다. IoT 상황에서, 데이터 관리는 데이터를 생성하는 객체와 장치 그리고 분석 목적과 서비스를 위해 그 데이터를 액세스하는 응용 사이의 중간 계층으로서의 역할을 해야 한다. 덧붙여, 대부분 IoT 서비스들은 데이터 가용성과 데이터 전달의 효율성을 증가시키기 위하여 호스트 중심 보다는 콘텐츠 중심이다. IoT는 모든 통신 장치들을 상호 연결할 것이고, 그리고 장치들과 객체들에 의해 생성된 또는 관련된 데이터를 글로벌하게 액세스할 수 있게 만든다. 또한 포그 컴퓨팅은 최종 사용자 근처의 네트워크 에지에서 데이터와 계산을 관리하고, 그리고 최종 사용자들에게 낮은 지연, 고대역폭, 지리적 분산으로 새로운 유형의 응용들과 서비스들을 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 시간 민감성을 보장하면서 효율적이고 신뢰적으로 IoT 데이터를 해당 IoT 응용들에게 전달하기 위하여 에지와 포그 컴퓨터 클라우드의 완전 분산 하이브리드 모델인 에지-포그 클라우드에 기반하고, 그리고 정보 중심 네트워크와 블룸 필터를 사용하는 $EFcHD^2$ (Edge-Fog cloud-based Hierarchical Data Delivery) 방법을 제안한다. $EFcHD^2$ 방법에서는 IoT 데이터의 특성인 지역성, 크기, 실시간성과 인기도 등을 고려하는 에지-포그 클라우드의 적절한 위치에 그 IoT 데이터의 복사본이나 에지 노드에 의해 전 처리된 특징 데이터를 저장한다. 그리고 제안하는 $EFcHD^2$ 방법의 성능을 분석적 모델로 평가하고, 그것을 성능을 포그 서버 기반 방법 그리고 CCN (Content-Centric Networking) 기반 데이터 전달 방법과 비교한다.

오늘날 급격한 멀티미디어 정보의 증가에 따라 영상에서의 시각적 특성을 이용하여 멀티미디어 데이터를 검색하는 내용 기반 영상 검색 기법에 대한 관심이 크게 늘어나고 있다. 본 논문에서는 효과적인 영상 검색을 위한 새로운 접근으로서 edge correlogram과 color coherence vector를 이용한 에지 기반의 공간 기술자를 제안한다. 우선 color vector angle기법을 이용하여 주어진 영상을 고주파 성분과 저주파 성분의 영상으로 나눈다. 저주파 성분의 영상에서는 color coherence vector를 이용하여 평탄 화소의 공간적인 색상 분포를 추출함으로써 이를 평탄 영역에서의 특징 정보로서 활용한다. 반면, 고주파 성분의 영상에서는 edge correlogram으로부터 에지 화소들 간의 분포를 추출하여 이를 에지 영역에서의 특징 정보로 이용한다. 제안된 방법은 색상 간의 지엽적인 특성과 전체적인 특성을 모두 가지고 있기 때문에, 영상 간의 비교에 있어서 영상의 모양과 크기의 급격한 변화로 인한 오검출 등에 매우 강건하다. 또한, 영상에서의 구조적인 특징을 이용함으로써 복잡한 영상에 대해서도 간단하고 유연한 특징을 제공한다. 실험 결과는 영상 색인 및 검색에 있어서 제안된 알고리즘이 최근의 여러 히스토그램 정밀화 기법에 비하여 더 효과적임을 보여준다. 데이터베이스 내 영상의 색인을 위해서는 R*-tree 구조를 이용하였다.

This paper presents a novel algorithm for nighttime detection of the lane markers painted on a road at night. First of all, the proposed algorithm uses neighborhood average filtering, 8-directional Sobel operator and thresholding segmentation based on OTSU's to handle raw lane images taken from a digital CCD camera. Secondly, combining intensity map and gradient map, we analyze the distribution features of pixels on boundaries of lanes in the nighttime and construct 4 feature sets for these points, which are helpful to supply with sufficient data related to lane boundaries to detect lane markers much more robustly. Then, the searching method in multiple directions- horizontal, vertical and diagonal directions, is conducted to eliminate the noise points on lane boundaries. Adapted Hough transformation is utilized to obtain the feature parameters related to the lane edge. The proposed algorithm can not only significantly improve detection performance for the lane marker, but it requires less computational power. Finally, the algorithm is proved to be reliable and robust in lane detection in a nighttime scenario.

This paper describes self-localization of a mobile robot from the multiple candidates of landmarks in outdoor environment. Our robot uses omnidirectional vision system for efficient self-localization. This vision system acquires the visible information of all direction views. The robot uses feature of landmarks whose size is bigger than that of others in image such as building, sculptures, placard etc. Robot uses vertical edges and those merged regions as the feature. In our previous work, we found the problem that landmark matching is difficult when selected candidates of landmarks belonging to region of repeating the vertical edges in image. To overcome these problems, robot uses the merged region of vertical edges. If interval of vertical edges is short then robot bundles them regarding as the same region. Thus, these features are selected as candidates of landmarks. Therefore, the extracted merged region of vertical edge reduces the ambiguity of landmark matching. Robot compares with the candidates of landmark between previous and current image. Then, robot is able to find the same landmark between image sequences using the proposed feature and method. We achieved the efficient self-localization result using robust landmark matching method through the experiments implemented in our campus.

In the automated production environment in the present days, the minimization of manual operation becomes a very important factor in increasing the efficiency of the production system. The exit burr produced through the milling operation on the edge of workpiece usually requires manual deburring process to enhance the level of precision of the resulting product. So far, researchers have developed various methods to understand the formation of exit burr in cutting process. One method to analytically identify the formation of exit burr was to use the geometrical information of CAD and CAM data used in automated machining. This method, in turn, generated the information resulting from the analysis such as burr type, cutting region, and exit angle. Up to now, the geometrical data were restricted to the single feature and single path. In this paper, a method to deal with the complicated geometric features such as line segment, arc, hole, and spline will be presented and validated using the field data. This method also deals with the complex workpiece shape which is a combination of multiple features. As for the cutting path, multiple tool path is analyzed in order to simulate the real cutting process. All this analysis is combined into a Windows based software and real data are used to validate the program in the conclusion.

Quantizing and extracting visual features of mushroom(Lentinus edodes L.) are crucial to the sorting and grading automation, the growth state measurement, and the dried performance indexing. A computer image processing system was utilized for the extraction and measurement of visual features of front and back sides of the mushroom. The image processing system is composed of the IBM PC compatible 386DK, ITEX PCVISION Plus frame grabber, B/W CCD camera, VGA color graphic monitor, and image output RGB monitor. In this paper, an automatic thresholding algorithm was developed to yield the segmented binary image representing skin states of the front and back sides. An eight directional Freeman's chain coding was modified to solve the edge disconnectivity by gradually expanding the mask size of 3$\times$3 to 9$\times$9. A real scaled geometric quantity of the object was directly extracted from the 8-directional chain element. The external shape of the mushroom was analyzed and converted to the quantitative feature patterns. Efficient algorithms for the extraction of the selected feature patterns and the recognition of the front and back side were developed. The developed algorithms were coded in a menu driven way using MS_C language Ver.6.0, PC VISION PLUS library fuctions, and VGA graphic functions.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD in short) approach is now playing an important role in the engineering process recently. Generating proper grid system for the region of interest in time is prerequisite for the efficient numerical calculation of flow physics using CFD approach. Grid generation is, however, usually considered as a major obstacle for a routine and successful application of numerical approaches in the engineering process. CFD approach based on the unstructured grid system is gaining popularity due to its simplicity and efficiency for generating grid system compared to the structured grid approaches. In this paper an automated triangular surface grid generation using CAD surface data is proposed According to the present method, the CAD surface data imported in the STL format is processed to identify feature edges defining the topology and geometry of the surface shape first. When the feature edges are identified, node points along the edges are distributed. The initial fronts which connect those feature edge nodes are constructed and then they are advanced along the CAD surface data inward until the surface is fully covered by triangular surface grid cells using Advancing Front Method. It is found that this approach can be implemented in an automated way successfully saving man-hours and reducing human-errors in generating triangular surface grid system.

Grid generation is, however, usually considered as a major obstacle for a routine and successful application of numerical approaches in the engineering process.

In this paper an automated triangular surface grid generation using CAD(Computer Aided Design) surface data is proposed. According to the present method, the CAD surface data imported in the STL(Stereo-lithography) format is processed to identify feature edges defining the topology and geometry of the surface shape first. When the feature edges are identified, node points along the edges are distributed. The initial fronts which connect those feature edge nodes are constructed and then they are advanced along the CAD surface data inward until the surface is fully covered by triangular surface grid cells using Advancing Front Method.

In order to realize tiny bridge crack discovery by UAV-based machine vision, a novel method combining deep learning and tensor voting is proposed. Firstly, the grid images of crack are detected and descripted based on SE-ResNet50 to generate feature points. Then, the probability significance map of crack image is calculated by tensor voting with feature points, which can define the direction and region of crack. Further, the crack detection anchor box is formed by non-maximum suppression from the probability significance map, which can improve the robustness of tiny crack detection. Finally, a case study is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in the Xiangjiang-River bridge inspection. Compared with the original tensor voting algorithm, the proposed method has higher accuracy in the situation of only 1-2 pixels width crack and the existence of edge blur, crack discontinuity, which is suitable for UAV-based bridge crack discovery.
