A new vehicle detection algorithm based on the multiple optimal Adaboost classifiers with optimal feature selection is proposed. It consists of two major modules: 1) Theoretical DDISF(Distance Dependent Image Scaling Factor) based image scaling by site modeling of the installed cameras. and 2) optimal features selection by Haar-like feature analysis depending on the distance of the vehicles. The experimental results of the proposed algorithm shows improved recognition rate compare to the previous methods for vehicles and non-vehicles. The proposed algorithm shows about 96.43% detection rate and about 3.77% false alarm rate. These are 3.69% and 1.28% improvement compared to the standard Adaboost algorithmt.

보안첨단화의 필요성 증대로 인하여 복합적이고 고기능의 보안 감시 시스템의 수요가 급속도로 확대되면서 보안은 안전하고 행복한 생활을 만드는데 없어서는 안될 중요한 역할을 하게 되었다. 최근, 디지털 영상기술의 급속한 발달과 보급은 이러한 보안 감시 시스템을 가능하도록 하였다. 본 논문은 다수의 카메라로부터 사람들의 움직임을 연속적으로 식별하고 추적할 수 있는 향상된 지능화 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법을 통해 카메라들 간의 위상이 자동으로 구성되고 객체의 움직임을 기반으로 학습하여 카메라들간의 거리, 객체와 카메라와의 거리, 카메라의 각도를 자동적으로 연산할 수 있도록 하였다. 이러한 자가 구성 단계 이후에 사람의 움직임을 추적하게 된다. 추적에서 사람들을 식별하는 단계가 선행되어야 하며, 이를 위해 머리, 몸, 손, 다리로 분리하여 각각의 정보들을 식별자로 사용하였다. 이러한 외형 식별자와 객체의 출몰간의 시간차를 이용해 다수의 카메라들로부터 객체를 연속적으로 추적하였다.

Synthetic aperture integral imaging is one of promising 3D imaging techniques to capture the high-resolution elemental images using multiple cameras. In this paper, we propose a method of displaying 3D images in space using the synthetic aperture integral imaging technique. Since the elemental images captured from SAII cannot be directly used to display 3D images in an integral imaging display system, we first extract the depth map from elemental images and then transform them to novel elemental images for 3D image display. The newly generated elemental images are displayed on a display panel to generate 3D images in space. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, we carry out the preliminary experiments using a 3D toy object and present the experimental results.

This paper proposes an algorithm to estimate the wind velocity by tracking free flying balloons. Balloons used in this method are expendable but inexpensive, which increases the usefulness of the method. Also we can obtain accurate 3D information by using multiple cameras and estimate the wind velocity of the local field. The proposed system consists of aerodynamic modeling of the balloon, a tracking algorithm using image processing, and the velocity estimation algorithm. We performed unit tests of each algorithm for the verification. The method is validated using a system simulation and sources of error case identified.

Mobile mapping systems with CCD cameras, GPS and IMU etc. can acquire massive photos and geographic informations along by roads. But it is easy to involve many errors or omissions of images and informations about roads and facilities with various files. And there were contained any conflicts or non-consistencies in massive mobile mapping data which were acquired by multiple survey teams in various survey regions. As an image tag standard, Exif helps us to encapsulate the precise GPS times and essential informations in the header of JPEG files and uses with the identification code for consistent managements of massive mobile mapping data in this paper. And Systematic management systems with data synchronization technology manage more consistently massive photos and their information.

The most massive galactic globular cluster, $\omega$ Cen has been observed using recently mounted WFC3/UVIS cameras of Hubble Space Telescope at both near-UV and optical bands. We present the photometry of stars in the central region of $\omega$ Cen in F225W, F275W and F336W bands. The near-UV color-magnitude diagrams and color-color diagrams of stars in $\omega$ Cen show multiple red giant branches and main sequences as already discovered in both ground-based and HST/ACS observations in the optical bands. We modelled the stellar populations of $\omega$ Cen using Yonsei Isochrone, where $\alpha$-particles and helium enhancement processes have been included properly. We compare the best-fit stellar populations obtained from the current near-UV observations to the suggested stellar population models based on optical band data. We also discuss the methodological issues arising when dealing with the near-UV observations; red-leak in near-UV filters and the huge interstellar extinction in near-UV bands compared to the optical bands and its non-linear effect in color-magnitude diagrams.

This study was performed to select the significant wavelengths for predicting the chlorophyll content of grafted cucumber seedlings using hyperspectral images. The visible and near-infrared (VNIR) images and the short-wave infrared images of cucumber cotyledon samples were measured by two hyperspectral cameras. A correlation coefficient spectrum (CCS), a stepwise multiple linear regression (SMLR), and partial least squares (PLS) regression were used to determine significant wavelengths. Some wavelengths at 501, 505, 510, 543, 548, 619, 718, 723, and 727 nm were selected by CCS, SMLR, and PLS as significant wavelengths for estimating chlorophyll content. The results from the calibration models built by SMLR and PLS showed fair relationship between measured and predicted chlorophyll concentration. It was concluded that the hyperspectral imaging technique in the VNIR region is suggested effective for estimating the chlorophyll content of grafted cucumber leaves, non-destructively.

This paper purposes on stimulating the dynamic behavior of a floating structure model with the image processing and the close-range photogrammetry, instead of the contact sensors. Previously, the movement of structures was presented by the exterior orientation estimation from a single camera following the space resection. The inverse resection yields to 6 orientation parameters of the floating structure, with respect to the camera coordinates system. The single camera solution of interest in applications is characterized by the restriction in terms of costs, unfavorable observation conditions, or synchronization demands when using multiple cameras. This paper discusses the theoretical determinations of camera exterior orientation by using the least squares adjustment, applied of the values from the DLT (Direct Linear Transformation) and the photogrammetric resection. This proposed method is applied to monitor motions of a floating model. The results of 6DOF (Six Degrees of Freedom) from the inverse resection were signified that applying appropriate initial values from DLT in the least square adjustment is effective in obtaining precise exterior orientation parameters. Therefore, the proposed method can be concluded as an efficient solution to simulate movements of the floating structure.

The proposed method was used to monitor the motion of a floating model. The results of six degrees of freedom (6-DOF) by inverse resection show that the appropriate initial values by DLT can be effectually applied in least squares adjustment, to obtain the precision of exterior orientation parameters. Additionally, a comparison between the close-range photogrammetry and total station results was feasibly verified. Therefore, the proposed method can be considered as an efficient solution to simulating the movement of floating structure.

This paper presents a novel approach for human activity recognition (HAR) using the joint angles from a 3D model of a human body. Unlike conventional approaches in which the joint angles are computed from inverse kinematic analysis of the optical marker positions captured with multiple cameras, our approach utilizes the body joint angles estimated directly from time-series activity images acquired with a single stereo camera by co-registering a 3D body model to the stereo information. The estimated joint-angle features are then mapped into codewords to generate discrete symbols for a hidden Markov model (HMM) of each activity. With these symbols, each activity is trained through the HMM, and later, all the trained HMMs are used for activity recognition. The performance of our joint-angle-based HAR has been compared to that of a conventional binary and depth silhouette-based HAR, producing significantly better results in the recognition rate, especially for the activities that are not discernible with the conventional approaches.
