In this paper, we propose a coding method to improve compression efficiency for MR image. This can be achieved by combining coding and segmentation scheme which removes noisy background region, which is meaningless for diagnosis, in MR image. The wavelet coder encodes only diagnostically significant foreground regions refering to segmentation map. Our proposed algorithm provides about 15% of bitrate reduction when compared with the same coder which is not combined with segmentation scheme. And the proposed scheme shows better reconstructed image Qualify than JPEG at the same compression ratio.

We have developed a laser ultrasonic system for visualization of elastic waves propagating on a solid surface, in order to visualize ultrasonic waves propagating on opaque media. This system can produce a series of successive images as an animation of wave propagation, because of scanning an optical heterodyne probe to measure surface transient displacements. Using this visualization technique, we observed the scattering and diffraction of ultrasonic waves around various shapes of artificial defects, and examined its application to nondestructive inspection. This imaging system provides various kinds of visualization images such as propagation image, amplitude image, arrival time image and velocity image. We have been confident that this technique is available for nondestructive inspection and materials ...

Bone Mineral Densitometry (BMD) values is determined numerically with T or Z-score while the image is not considered in the interpretation. Abnormal finding was observed in the left femoral bone density image of a 64-year-old female patient who underwent a left kidney transplantation. This was due to the ethiodized oil used for embolization in the treatment of lymphatic leakage. Radiologic technologists should not only monitor changes of BMD values, but keep in mind to assess the changes in the image to provide accurate information to the patient.

In this paper, we described development of on-board image processing system and its process and verified its performance through flight experiment. The image processing board has single ARM(Advanced Risk Machine) processor. We performed Embedded Linux Porting. Algorithm to be applied for object tracking is color-based image processing algorithm, it can be designed to track the object that has specific color on ground in real-time. To verify performance of the on-board image processing system, we performed flight test using the PNUAV, UAV developed by LAB. Also, we performed optimization of the image processing algorithm and kernel to improve real-time performance. Finally we confirmed that proposed system can track the blue-color object within four pixels error range consistently in the experiment.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to find out the relation factors of weight control behaviors, mental health status and body image perception in adolescents and to use basis data of health promotion for adolescents. Methods: This study used data from the Fifth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES V-2, 2011). The subjects were 653 between 12-19 age. Data analysis was done with SPSS/WIN 19.0 using Chi-square test, and Logistic regression. Results: The result is as follows. The case of female adolescents, abnormal perception of body image was significantly higher on weight reduction effort and normal weight, low weight in BMI. The case of male adolescents, abnormal perception of body image was higher on normal weight in BMI. Conclusions: The adolescents tend to do unreasoning weight loss behavior without properly perception for their body image. Therefore, we suggest that adolescents be provided social support for positive body image and be developed perception program with the importance of inner values.

Log-polar coordinate image space is proposed as a solution for the problem of unbounded accumulator space in the automatic detection of vanishing points. The proposed method can detect vanishing points at high speed under small memory requirements, as opposed to conventional image space based methods.

We first show how to construct the linear operator equations corresponding to Tikhonov regularization problems for solving image deblurring problems with nearly separable point spread functions. We next propose a Kronecker product preconditioner which is suitable for the global PCG method. Lastly, we provide numerical experiments of the global PCG method with the Kronecker product preconditioner for several image deblurring problems to evaluate its effectiveness.

Data acquisition system mounted on the Solar Flare Telescope at Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory is briefly described. The system is made up with CCD cameras, an image processor, a PCI-type PC and a SUN workstation. The image processor, MVC 150/40 comprises a variable scan acquisition module, an image manager and a binary correlator computational module. A typical polarization image of a sunspot is presented to demonstrate performance of the system.

In an attempt to enhance the visual effect of SPOT image, this study develops a neural network algorithm to transform SPOT false color into simulated true color. The method has been tested using Landsat TM and SPOT images. The qualitative and quantitative comparisons indicate that the striking similarity can be found between the true and simulated true images in terms of the visual looks and the statistical analysis.

In this paper, we present a new interpolation scheme for image enhancement using fuzzy inference. In general, interpolation techniques are based on linear operators which are essentially lowpass filters, hence, they tend to blur fine details in the original image. In our approach, the operator itself balances the strength of its sharpening and noise suppressing components according to the properties of the input image data.
