Matching is a key problem in computer vision, image analysis and pattern recognition. In this paper a multiscale image matching algorithm by wavelet local extrema is proposed. This algorithm is based on the multiscale wavelet transform of the curvature which can utilize both the information of local extrema positions and magnitudes of transform results. This method has advantages in computational cost to a single scale image matching. It is also rotation-, translation-, and scale-independent image matching method. This matching can be used for the recognition of occluded objects.

Signal is composed of the independent components that can describe itself. These components can distinguish itself from any other signals and be extracted by analysis itself. This algorithm is called Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and image signal is considered as linear combination of independent components and features that is the weighted vector of independent component. This algorithm is already used in order to extract the good feature for image classification and very effective In this paper, we'll explain the method of stereo matching using independent component analysis and show the experimental result.

This paper describes a fast image labeling algorithm for the feature extraction of connected components. Labeling the connected regions of a digitized image is a fundamental computation in image analysis and machine vision, with a large number of application that can be found in various literature. This algorithm is designed for the surface defect inspection of Cold Mill Strip. The labeling algorithm permits to separate all of the connected components appearing on the Cold Mill Strip.

본 논문은 형태학적 워터쉐드 알고리즘을 이용하여 잡음에 강한 효율적인 영상분할에 대해서 논의하고자 한다. 기존의 형태학적 워터쉐드 알고리즘에 의한 영상분할은 크게 형태학적 연산자에 의한 영상의 단순화, 경사 영상 생성, 워터쉐드 알고리즘 수행 그리고 영역 병합 등의 여러 단계에 걸쳐 이루어진다. 그러나 기존의 형태학적 워터쉐드 알고리즘에 의한 영상분할은 과분할이 많이 일어나는 단점을 갖고 있다. 본 논문에서는 과분할을 줄이기 위해 잡음에 강한 형태학적 연산자에 의한 경사영상을 생성하고 워터쉐드 알고리즘을 적용 후 통계적인 콜모고로프-스미르노프 검정을 사용하여 인접한 영역 간의 픽셀 값 분포를 비교함으로써 부적절한 영역 병합을 최소화하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 영상분할의 성능을 평가하기 위해 기존의 방법과 정성적이고 정량적인 비교뿐 만아니라 영상분할에 소요되는 계산시간까지 비교하였다.

This paper presents a new approach for underwater image analysis using the bi-dimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD) technique and the phase congruency information. The BEMD algorithm, fully unsupervised, it is mainly applied to texture extraction and image filtering, which are widely recognized as a difficult and challenging machine vision problem. The phase information is the very stability feature of image. Recent developments in analysis methods on the phase congruency information have received large attention by the image researchers. In this paper, the proposed method is called the EP model that inherits the advantages of the first two algorithms, so this model is suitable for processing underwater image. Moreover, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is presented in this paper to solve the problem that the threshold is greatly affected by personal experience when underwater image edge detection is performed using the EP model. The EP images are computed using combinations of the Canny detector parameters, and the binaryzation image results are generated accordingly. The ideal EP edge feature extractive maps are estimated using correspondence threshold which is optimized by ROC analysis. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is able to avoid the operation error caused by manual setting of the detection threshold, and to adaptively set the image feature detection threshold. The proposed method has been proved to be accuracy and effectiveness by the underwater image processing examples.

With the help of advanced image acquisition and processing technology, the vision-based measurement methods have been broadly applied to implement the structural monitoring and condition identification of civil engineering structures. Many noncontact approaches enabled by different digital image processing algorithms are developed to overcome the problems in conventional structural dynamic displacement measurement. This paper presents three kinds of image processing algorithms for structural dynamic displacement measurement, i.e., the grayscale pattern matching (GPM) algorithm, the color pattern matching (CPM) algorithm, and the mean shift tracking (MST) algorithm. A vision-based system programmed with the three image processing algorithms is developed for multi-point structural dynamic displacement measurement. The dynamic displacement time histories of multiple vision points are simultaneously measured by the vision-based system and the magnetostrictive displacement sensor (MDS) during the laboratory shaking table tests of a three-story steel frame model. The comparative analysis results indicate that the developed vision-based system exhibits excellent performance in structural dynamic displacement measurement by use of the three different image processing algorithms. The field application experiments are also carried out on an arch bridge for the measurement of displacement influence lines during the loading tests to validate the effectiveness of the vision-based system.

영상 분할 (Image Segmentation)은 패턴 인식, 환경 인식, 문서 분석을 위한 영상 처리 과정에서 가장 기본적인 단계이다. 영상 분할 방법들 중 Otsu의 영상의 정규화된 히스토그램의 분포 정보를 이용하여 클래스 간의 분산을 최대화 시키는 임계치값을 결정하는 자동 임계치값 선정방법이 가장 잘 알려진 방법이다. Otsu의 방법은 영상의 전 영역에 대한 히스토그램을 분석함으로써 영상의 부분적인 특성을 반영하여 임계치값을 결정하기는 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이 어려움 해소하기 위하여 Context Fuzzy c-Means 알고리즘을 이용하여 영상을 여러 개의 부분 영역으로 나누고, 정의된 부 영역에 영상 분할 기법을 적용함으로써 부 영역들에 적합한 여러 개의 임계치값을 계산함으로써 영상 분할 성능을 개선하고자 하였다.

For face recognition system, a face detector which can find exact face region from complex image is needed. Many face detection algorithms have been developed under the assumption that background of the source image is quite simple . this means that face region occupy more than a quarter of the area of the source image or the background is one-colored. Color-based face detection is fast but can't be applicable to the images of which the background color is similar to face color. And the algorithm using neural network needs so many non-face data for training and doesn't guarantee general performance. In this paper, A multi-scale, multi-face detection algorithm using PCA is suggested. This algorithm can find most multi-scaled faces contained in static images with small number of training data in reasonable time.

In this paper, we proposed the Bi-Modal Sensor Fusion Algorithm which is the emotional recognition method that be able to classify 4 emotions (Happy, Sad, Angry, Surprise) by using facial image and speech signal together. We extract the feature vectors from speech signal using acoustic feature without language feature and classify emotional pattern using Neural-Network. We also make the feature selection of mouth, eyes and eyebrows from facial image. and extracted feature vectors that apply to Principal Component Analysis(PCA) remakes low dimension feature vector. So we proposed method to fused into result value of emotion recognition by using facial image and speech.
