This paper describes an effective method to estimate a position of an automous vehicle equipped with a single CCD-camera along indoor passageways. Using the sequential image data from the self-movement of the vehicle, the position is estimated by integrating the approximated motion parameters. The detection of the yaw angle that is one of the motion parameter is difficult in general, e.g. slip or error for noise, therefore the different detection is presented, which is, without shaft encoders, based on a projection function for 2D-image data and a cross-correlation function so as to be robust for noise. The approximated geometric function to estimate the position is used to reduce the computational effort. To verify the effectiveness of the method, the analysis and the computational results are shown through the simulations. Furthermore, the experimental results by using the test vehicle for the real indoor passageway are shown.

As the need of automatized system has been increased recently together with the development of industrial and military technologies, the adaptive real-time target detection technologies that can be embedded on vehicles, planes, ships, robots and so on, are hgihly demanded. Accordingly, this paper proposes a novel approach to detect and segment the moving targets using the binary phase extraction joint transform correlator (BPEJTC), the advanced image subtraction filter and convex hull processing. The BPEJTC which was used as a target detection unit mainly for target tracking compensating the camera movement. The target region has been detected by processing the successful three frames using the advanced image subtraction filter, and has become more accurate by applying the developed convex hull filter. As shown by some experimental results, it is expected that the proposed approaches for compensation of the camera movement and segmentationof of target region, can be used for th emissile guiddance, aero surveillance, automatic inspectin system as well as the target detection unit of automatic target recognition system that request adaptive real-time processing.

An endoscope is a medical device which observes the inner surface of an organ inside a body. Recently, a new type of endoscope using a CCD image sensor has been developed and turned out to have many strong points over the conventional optical fiber endoscope system. A swallowable insertion tube is an insertion tube having so small a diameter that the head of the insertion tube can reach the end of stomach only by mechanical movement of the esphagus and stomach or the patient's external movement. This paper presents some of the results that the Institute of Biomedical Engineering at Seoul National University has obtained while developing an electronic endoscope having a swallowable insertion tube. After some of the features of the developed system are presented, some of the image processing techniaues are addressed.

In large commercial facilities, customer movements have a close interrelation between space structure and interior environment elements. With the importance of the spacial structure, VMD strategy has recently played greater role In the interior environment image to satisfy customers' needs. This study intends to examine the relationship among customer behavior, customer movement, and VMD by grasping customers shopping behavior characteristics that come from the relatively comprehensive factors in the female sections of the department stores through the environmental image that is composed of spatial and emotional elements. This study also serves the purpose that by tracking shopping time, shopping speed, and the ratio of shopping depth that directly reflects customer behavior characteristics, various causes, either general or specific, which can affect the decision on purchase are to be examined. Based on this research results, we bring up the basic data and foundation for floor MD plan, establishment of movement plan, and VMD plan at a store.

This study is about the creation of a character art using the free association. Character in proposed artwork induces the viewer's unconscious experience associated with it and creates new meanings to invigorate the character. When a character that performs both a linguistic function and a visual image function goes through a free association process, the viewer can induce interest and convey the meaning of the character more effectively. We proposed two ways to express the dynamic movement of the character more actively. One is drawing using various colors and free lines, and the other is the movement of the character synchronized with the gesture of the viewer. As a result of implementing dynamic character art, we can see that the viewer was actively involved in the free association process and immersed in the artwork. The viewers participated in the creation of the artwork, changing the shape of the character according to their various gestures.

This paper proposes an image stabilization method for arbitrary disturbances, such as rotation, translation and zoom movement, using the SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform). In addition, image stabilization was carried out using the image division and merge technique when moving objects appear on the scene. Finally, the experimental results showed that the suggested image stabilization scheme produced superior performance compared to the previous ones.

Pig's original image data was transformed to a binary image, an image excluding head and tail portion from the whole binary image, and a projected image associated with pig's height. Then the length of body, width of shoulder, and area of pig were calculated and the relationships among the above characteristics and pig's weight were analyzed. The results obtained from this study were as follows: 1. Whole binary image data was considered to be improper to determine the pig's weight because the movement of pig's head and tail portion affected the image data. 2. Binary image data excluding head and tail portion from the whole binary image showed a better estimation of the pig's weight than the whole binary image. 3. Pig's should width was analyzed to be improper factor to determine the pig's weight. 4. The projected image associated with pig's height showed the highest correlation between the pig's area of the image and pig's weight(R2=0.9965). From this research the projected image associated with pig's height, which is excluding head and tail portion from the whole body of pig's image, was considered to be the prime factor to measure the pig's weight by the noncontact measurement.

This paper proposes a motion estimation-based super resolution algorithm to restore input low-resolution images of large movement into a super-resolution image. It is difficult to find the sub-pixel motion estimation in images of large movement compared to typical experimental images. Also, it has disadvantage which have high computational complexity to find reference images and candidate images using general motion estimation method. In order to solve these problems for the traditional two-dimensional motion estimation using the proposed registration threshold that satisfy the conditions based on the reference image is determined. Candidate image with minimum weight among the best candidates for super resolution images, the restoration process to proceed with to find a new image registration algorithm is proposed. According to experimental results, the average PSNR of the proposed algorithm is 31.89dB and this is better than PSNR of traditional super-resolution algorithm and it also shows improvement of computational complexity.

Variables influencing the free face movement due to rock blasting include the physical and mechanical properties, in particular the discontinuity characteristics, explosive type, charge weight, burden, blast-hole spacing, delay time between blast-holes or rows, stemming conditions. These variables also affects the blast vibration, air blast and size of fragmentation. For the design of surface blasting, the priority is given to the safety of nearby buildings. Therefore, blast vibration has to be controlled by analyzing the free face movement at the surface blasting sites and also blasting operation needs to be optimized to improve the fragmentation size. High-speed digital image analysis enables the analyses of the initial movement of free face of rock, stemming optimality, fragment trajectory, face movement direction and velocity as well as the optimal detonator initiation system. Even though The high-speed image analysis technique has been widely used in foreign countries, its applications can hardly be found in Korea. This thesis aims at carrying out a fundamental study for optimizing the blast design and evaluation using the high-speed digital image analysis. A series of experimentation were performed at two large surface blasting sites with the rock type of shale and granite, respectively. Emulsion and ANFO were the explosives used for the study. Based on the digital images analysis, displacement and velocity of the free face were scrutinized along with the analysis fragment size distribution. In addition, AUTODYN, 2-D FEM model, was applied to simulate detonation pressure, detonation velocity, response time for the initiation of the free face movement and face movement shape. The result show that regardless of the rock type, due to the displacement and the movement velocity have the maximum near the center of charged section the free face becomes curved like a bow. Compared with ANFO, the cases with Emulsion result in larger detonation pressure and velocity and faster reaction for the displacement initiation.

In this paper, we propose a novel motion field estimation algorithm for which a U-disparity map and forward-and-backward error removal are applied in a vehicular environment. Generally, a motion exists in an image obtained by a camera attached to a vehicle by vehicle movement; however, the obtained motion vector is inaccurate because of the surrounding environmental factors such as the illumination changes and vehicles shaking. It is, therefore, difficult to extract an accurate motion vector, especially on the road surface, due to the similarity of the adjacent-pixel values; therefore, the proposed algorithm first removes the road surface region in the obtained image by using a U-disparity map, and uses then the optical flow that represents the motion vector of the object in the remaining part of the image. The algorithm also uses a forward-backward error-removal technique to improve the motion-vector accuracy and a vehicle's movement is predicted through the application of the RANSAC (RANdom SAmple Consensus) to the previously obtained motion vectors, resulting in the generation of a motion field. Through experiment results, we show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is superior to that of an existing algorithm.
