In this paper, we present a method to automatically quantify the three-dimensional (3D) volume of red blood cells (RBCs) using off-axis digital holographic microscopy. The RBCs digital holograms are recorded via a CCD camera using an off-axis interferometry setup. The RBCs' phase image is reconstructed from the recorded off-axis digital hologram by a computational reconstruction algorithm. The watershed segmentation algorithm is applied to the reconstructed phase image to remove background parts and obtain clear targets in the phase image with many single RBCs. After segmenting the reconstructed RBCs' phase image, all single RBCs are extracted, and the 3D volume of each single RBC is then measured with the surface area and the phase values of the corresponding RBC. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method to automatically calculate the 3D volume of RBC, two typical shapes of RBCs, i.e., stomatocyte/discocyte, are tested via experiments. Statistical distributions of 3D volume for each class of RBC are generated by using our algorithm. Statistical hypothesis testing is conducted to investigate the difference between the statistical distributions for the two typical shapes of RBCs. Our experimental results illustrate that our study opens the possibility of automated quantitative analysis of 3D volume in various types of RBCs.

본 논문에서는 위상 천이 디지털 홀로그래피(PSDH; Phase-Shifting Digital Holography) 및 디지털 워터마킹(Digital Watermarking) 기반 디지털 홀로그램의 이중 암호화 기술을 제안한다. 이를 위해 먼저 디지털 워터마크에 사용할 로고 영상을 정하고, 이 영상에 대한 이진 위상 컴퓨터형성 홀로그램(CGH; Computer Generated Hologram)을 반복 알고리즘을 이용하여 설계한다. 그리고 랜덤하게 발생시킨 이진 위상 마스크를 워터마크로 정하고, 설계된 이진 위상 CGH와 XOR 논리연산을 통해 워터마크 정보에 대한 키 영상을 생성한다. 그리고 물체 영상을 위상 변조하여 세기가 일정한 함수로 만든 후, 워터마크인 랜덤하게 발생시킨 이진 위상 마스크를 곱하여 물체파를 생성한다. 이 물체파는 워터마크 정보가 포함된 잡음과 유사한 패턴을 가지는 1차 암호화된 영상이라고 할 수 있다. 이를 2-단계 PSDH기술을 적용하여 기준파와 간섭을 시키면 가시성이 향상된 최종 간섭무늬를 얻는다. 이 간섭패턴이 최종적으로 구하고자 하는 물체 영상의 2차 암호화된 영상이 된다. 암호화된 영상의 복호화는 2-단계 PSDH기술을 통한 암호화된 영상들을 이용하여 적절한 산술연산 처리한 후, 프레즈넬 변환 및 1차 암호화 과정의 역순으로 진행하면 된다. 제안된 방법의 암호화 및 복호화 기술은 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증된다.

A power distribution facility map is composed of distribution facility information regions, cadastral regions and grid lines. In this map, our goal is automatic interpretation of power distribution region. For the goal, it is the first work to extract the power distribution facility region. In this paper, we propose a method to extract power distribution facility regions. The proposed method is consist of two phases, binarization phase and extending phase. The first phase generate a power distribution facility image using threshold value. The image contains many part of power distribution facility regions, but not all. The second phase extends thinned image which is generated by appling thinning operator to the power distribution facility image.

A computer code for Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) is developed to sense the cross sectional phase distribution of two-phase flow in the rectangular pipe in which the tomography sensor furnished by the insulated wall, electrodes, and electric field screen. The computer code had two steps for the image reconstruction. In the forward projection step, the sensitivity matrix was constructed based on the electric field calculated by the finite difference method. In the backward projection step, the sensitivity matrix and the measured capacitances were used to reconstruct the cross sectional image. Several algorithms including LBP, TR, ITR, and PLI were employed to find the proper one for the two-phase flow analysis. Since the dielectric constant of the water in two-phase flow is sensitive to the thermal parameter such as, temperature and pressure, the developed code was evaluated to find their accuracy, speed of calculation, and sensitivity to the variation of the dielectric constant. It was found that the iterative methods are superior to the direct methods for the image reconstruction, and the PLI method was the best in the variation of the dielectric constants.

We present an efficient and robust technique to estimate the velocity of moving targets from a single SAR image. In SAR images, azimuth image shift is a well known phenomenon, which is observed in moving targets having slant-range velocity. Most methods estimated the velocity of moving targets from the distance difference between the road and moving targets or between ship and the ship wake. However, the methods could not be always applied to moving targets because it is difficult to find the road and the ship wake. We adopted a method estimating the velocity of moving targets from azimuth differentials of range-compressed image. This method is based on an assumption that Doppler center frequency shift of moving target causes a phase difference in azimuth differential values. The phase difference is linearly distorted by Doppler rate due to the geometry of SAR image. The linear distortion is eliminated from phase removal procedure, and the constant phase difference is estimated. Finally, range velocity estimates for moving targets are retrieved. This technique is tested using an ENVISAT ASAR image in which several unknown ships are presented. The theoretical accuracy of this technique is discussed by SAR simulation. The advantages and disadvantages of this method over the conventional method are also discussed.
