The residual DC phenomena in the in-plane switching(IPS)-liquid crystal display(LCD) by the voltage-transmittance (V-T) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) hysteresis method on rubbed polyimide (PI) surfaces were studied. We found that the residual DC voltage in the IPS-LCD was decreasing with the increasing concentration of cyano LCs. The residual DC voltage of the IPS-LCD can be improved by the high polarity of cyano LCs.

This paper presents a dual exposure fusion method for image enhancement. Images taken with a short exposure time usually contain a sharp structure, but they are dark and are prone to be contaminated by noise. In contrast, long-exposure images are bright and noise-free, but usually suffer from blurring artifacts. Thus, we fuse the dual exposures to generate an enhanced image that is well-exposed, noise-free, and blur-free. To this end, we present a new scale-space patch-match method to find correspondences between the short and long exposures so that proper color components can be combined within a proposed dual non-local (DNL) means framework. We also present a residual filtering method that eliminates the structure component in the estimated noise image in order to obtain a sharper and further enhanced image. To this end, the entropy is utilized to determine the proper size of the filtering window. Experimental results show that our method generates ghost-free, noise-free, and blur-free enhanced images from the short and long exposure pairs for various dynamic scenes.

본 논문에서는 시차보상 방법에 의해 추출된 오차 영상을 대역간 및 대역내의 상관관계를 고려한 웨이브릿 변환을 이용함으로써 압축 부호화 하는 새로운 스테레오 영상압축 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 본 논문에서 제시된 영상 압축 부호화 방식은 기존의 압축 알고리즘인 EPIC, EPWIC, JPEG등과 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통한 비교분석을 통해 모두 향상된 영상 압축률을 나타냈으며, PSNR경우도 EPWIC에 비해 3.5dB 향상된 30.5dB로 나타났다. 또한 본 논문에서 제시된 방법으로 압축 전송된 영상으로부터 충분한 입체감을 갖는 스테레오 영상을 재현할 수 있었다.

Image co-registration is the process of overlaying two images of the same scene. One of which is a reference image, while the other (sensed image) is geometrically transformed to the one. Numerous methods were developed for the automated image co-registration and it is known as a time-consuming and/or computation-intensive procedure. In order to improve efficiency and effectiveness of the co-registration of satellite imagery, this paper proposes a pre-qualified area matching, which is composed of feature extraction with Laplacian filter and area matching algorithm using correlation coefficient. Moreover, to improve the accuracy of co-registration, the outliers in the initial matching point should be removed. For this, two outlier detection techniques of studentized residual and modified RANSAC algorithm are used in this study. Three pairs of Landsat images were used for performance test, and the results were compared and evaluated in terms of robustness and efficiency.

To effectively track the illegal use of digital images and maintain the security of digital image communication on the Internet, this paper proposes a reversible multipurpose image watermarking algorithm based on a deep residual network (ResNet) and perceptual hashing (also called MWR). The algorithm first combines perceptual image hashing to generate a digital fingerprint that depends on the user's identity information and image characteristics. Then it embeds the removable visible watermark and digital fingerprint in two different regions of the orthogonal separation of the image. The embedding strength of the digital fingerprint is computed using ResNet. Because of the embedding of the removable visible watermark, the conflict between the copyright notice and the user's browsing is balanced. Moreover, image authentication and traitor tracking are realized through digital fingerprint insertion. The experiments show that the scheme has good visual transparency and watermark visibility. The use of chaotic mapping in the visible watermark insertion process enhances the security of the multipurpose watermark scheme, and unauthorized users without correct keys cannot effectively remove the visible watermark.

This paper proposes an image compression algorithm that adopts projection scheme on mean-residual metod. Sub-blocks of an image are encoded using mean-residual method where mean value is predicted according to that of neighboring blocks. Projection scheme with 8 directions is applied to the compression of residual signals of blocks. Projection vectors are finite-state vector quantized according to the projection angle of nighboring blocks in order to exploit the correlation among them. Side information to represent the repetition of projection is run-length coded while the information for projection direction is compressed using entropy encoding. The proposed scheme apears to be better in PSNR performance when compared with conventional projection scheme as well as in subjective quality preserving the edges of images better than most tranform methods which usually require heavy computation load.

Due to the technological limitations of infrared thermography, infrared focal plane array (IFPA) imaging exhibits stripe non-uniformity, which is typically fixed pattern noise that changes over time and temperature on top of existing non-uniformities. This paper proposes a stripe non-uniformity correction algorithm based on scene-adaptive nonlinear filtering. The algorithm first uses a nonlinear filter to remove single-column non-uniformities and calculates the actual residual with respect to the original image. Then, the current residual is obtained by using the predicted residual from the previous frame and the actual residual. Finally, we adaptively calculate the gain and bias coefficients according to global motion parameters to reduce artifacts. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm protects image edges to a certain extent, converges fast, has high quality, and effectively removes column stripes and non-uniform random noise compared to other adaptive correction algorithms.

본 논문에서는 CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) 기반의 영상융합 기법을 제안하고자 하였다. 딥러닝 구조의 성능을 향상시키기 위하여, CNN 기법에서 대표적인 합성곱(convolution) 방법으로 알려진 팽창된 합성곱(dilated convolution) 모델을 활용하여 모델의 깊이와 복잡성을 증대시키고자 하였다. 팽창된 합성곱을 기반으로 하여 학습과정에서의 효율을 향상시키기 위하여 잔차 네트워크(residual network)도 활용하였다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 모델학습을 위하여 전통적인 L1 노름(norm) 기반의 손실함수와 함께, 공간 상관도를 활용하였다. 본 연구에서는 전정색 영상만을 이용하거나 전정색 영상과 다중분광 영상을 모두 활용하여 구조에 적용한 DRNet을 개발하여 실험을 수행하였다. KOMPSAT-3A를 활용한 전정색 영상과 다중분광 영상을 이용한 DRNet은 융합영상의 분광특성에 과적합되는 결과를 나타냈으며, 전정색 영상만을 이용한 DRNet이 기존 기법들과 비교하여 융합영상의 공간적 특성을 효과적으로 반영함을 확인하였다.

This paper proposes an image classification algorithm that transforms the number of convolution layers in the residual block of ResNet, CNN's representative method. The proposed method modified the structure of 34/50 layer of ResNet structure. First, we analyzed the performance of small and many convolution layers for the structure consisting of only shortcut and 3 × 3 convolution layers for 34 and 50 layers. And then the performance was analyzed in the case of small and many cases of convolutional layers for the bottleneck structure of 50 layers. By applying the results, the best classification method in the residual block was applied to construct a 34-layer simple structure and a 50-layer bottleneck image classification model. To evaluate the performance of the proposed image classification model, the results were analyzed by applying to the cifar10 dataset. The proposed 34-layer simple structure and 50-layer bottleneck showed improved performance over the ResNet-110 and Densnet-40 models.
