In this paper, we design edge class that can processed digital image effectively, edge is a important information including the point of shape information for a object detection or recognition in the digital image. Therefore, it is of very importance, which managed effectively the edge and can use a variety availability in digital image Processing, after edge detection. The environment using the existing digital image processing system has limits of use and speed. In this paper, we design edge class that can managed detected edges and it analyzes existing methods by edge detection algorithm.

This study derived the inter-conversion matrices, which can be used in heterogeneous image transcoding between the compressed images using different transforms, such as the $8{\times}8$ block discrete cosine transform (BDCT) and the one-level discrete wavelet transform (DWT). Basically, to obtain the one-level DWT coefficients from $8{\times}8$ BDCT, inverse BDCT should be performed followed by forward DWT, and vice versa. On the other hand, if the proposed interconversion approach is used, only one inter-conversion matrix multiplication makes the corresponding transcoding possible. Both theoretical and experimental analyses showed that the amount of computation of the proposed approach decreases over 20% when the inter-conversion matrices are used under specific conditions.

This paper is concerned with the development of vibration measurement using the image processing. With the advance of the personal computer and the image processing device, it becomes possible to measure vibrations by converting the image into motion data. The image stored in the computer is based on pixels. Hence, the efficient technique which can compute vibrational motions from pixel data should be developed. In this study, we will show the feasibility of the image processing technique for vibration measurement. The experimental results show that vibrations can be measured from image data.

Noise generated during image acquisition and transmission can negatively impact the results of image processing applications, and noise removal is typically a part of image preprocessing. Denoising techniques combined with nonlocal techniques have received significant attention in recent years, owing to the development of sophisticated hardware and image processing algorithms, much attention has been paid to; however, this approach is relatively poor for edge preservation of fine image details. To address this limitation, the current study combined a steering kernel technique with adaptive masks that can adjust the size according to the noise intensity of an image. The algorithm sets the steering weight based on a similarity comparison, allowing it to respond to edge components more effectively. The proposed algorithm was compared with existing denoising algorithms using quantitative evaluation and enlarged images. The proposed algorithm exhibited good general denoising performance and better performance in edge area processing than existing non-local techniques.

This paper proposes an algorithm that automatically converts images into Pipo, painting images using OpenCV-based image processing technology. The existing "purity," "palm," "puzzling," and "painting," or Pipo, painting image production method relies on manual work, so customized production has the disadvantage of coming with a high price and a long production period. To resolve this problem, using the OpenCV library, we developed a technique that automatically converts an image into a Pipo painting image by designing a module that changes an image, like a picture; draws a line based on a sector boundary; and writes sector numbers inside the line. Through this, it is expected that the production cost of customized Pipo painting images will be lowered and that the production period will be shortened.

Text-based image retrieval is not only cumbersome as it requires the manual input of keywords by the user, but is also limited in the semantic approach of keywords. However, content-based image retrieval enables visual processing by a computer to solve the problems of text retrieval more fundamentally. Vision applications such as extraction and mapping of image characteristics, require the processing of a large amount of data in a mobile environment, rendering efficient power consumption difficult. Hence, an effective image retrieval method on mobile platforms is proposed herein. To provide the visual meaning of keywords to be inserted into images, the efficiency of image retrieval is improved by extracting keywords of exchangeable image file format metadata from images retrieved through a content-based similar image retrieval method and then adding automatic keywords to images captured on mobile devices. Additionally, users can manually add or modify keywords to the image metadata.

Bokeh effect is a stylistic technique that can produce blurring the background of photos. This paper implements to produce a bokeh effect with a single image by post processing. Generating depth map is a key process of bokeh effect, and depth map is an image that contains information relating to the distance of the surfaces of scene objects from a viewpoint. First, this work presents algorithms to determine the depth map from a single input image. Then, we obtain a sparse defocus map with gradient ratio from input image and blurred image. Defocus map is obtained by propagating threshold values from edges using matting Laplacian. Finally, we obtain the blurred image on foreground and background segmentation with bokeh effect achieved. With the experimental results, an efficient image processing method with bokeh effect applied using a single image is presented.

Aiming at the problems of low image enhancement accuracy, long enhancement time and poor image quality in the traditional robot sequence motion image enhancement methods, an adaptive enhancement method for robot sequence motion image is proposed. The feature representation of the image was obtained by Karhunen-Loeve (K-L) transformation, and the nonlinear relationship between the robot joint angle and the image feature was established. The trajectory planning was carried out in the robot joint space to generate the robot sequence motion image, and an adaptive homomorphic filter was constructed to process the noise of the robot sequence motion image. According to the noise processing results, the brightness of robot sequence motion image was enhanced by using the multi-scale Retinex algorithm. The simulation results showed that the proposed method had higher accuracy and consumed shorter time for enhancement of robot sequence motion images. The simulation results showed that the image enhancement accuracy of the proposed method could reach 100%. The proposed method has important research significance and economic value in intelligent monitoring, automatic driving, and military fields.

This paper proposes a new image processing algorithm to recognize korean documents. It take out the region of text area form input image, then it makes esgmentation of lines, words and characters in the text. A precision segmentation is very important to recognize the input document. The input image has 8-bit gray scaled resolution. Not only the histogram but also brightness dispersion graph are used for segmentation. The result shows a higher accuracy of document recognition.
