In this paper, we proposed an watermarking algorithm in which invariable sign of DWT coefficients should be used and by which the quality of digital image can be preserved for the protection of copyright. According to the algorithm, through the calculation of the sign DWT coefficients and the use of elements, position of watermark and size value should be decided. By so doing, the algorithm can improve image quality(PSNR) and obtain good efficiency with which strong watermark can be inserted into the digital image.

In this paper, a new traffic sign detection algorithm.. and a symbol recognition algorithm are proposed. For traffic sign detection, a dominant color transform is introduced, which serves as a tool of highlighting a dominant primary color, while discarding the other two primary colors. For symbol recognition, the curvilinear shape distribution on a circle centered on the centroid of symbol, called a circular pattern vector, is used as a spatial feature of symbol. The circular pattern vector is invariant to scaling, translation, and rotation. As simulation results, the effectiveness of traffic sign detection and recognition algorithms are confirmed, and it is shown that group of circular patter vectors based on concentric circles is more effective than circular pattern vector of a single circle for a given equivalent number of elements of vectors.

This paper describes the improved environment recognition algorithms using some type of sensors like LiDAR and cameras. Additionally, integrated control algorithm for an autonomous vehicle is included. The integrated algorithm was based on C++ environment and supported the stability of the whole driving control algorithms. As to the improved vision algorithms, lane tracing and traffic sign recognition were mainly operated with three cameras. There are two algorithms developed for lane tracing, Improved Lane Tracing (ILT) and Histogram Extension (HIX). Two independent algorithms were combined into one algorithm - Enhanced Lane Tracing with Histogram Extension (ELIX). As for the enhanced traffic sign recognition algorithm, integrated Mutual Validation Procedure (MVP) by using three algorithms - Cascade, Reinforced DSIFT SVM and YOLO was developed. Comparing to the results for those, it is convincing that the precision of traffic sign recognition is substantially increased. With the LiDAR sensor, static and dynamic obstacle detection and obstacle avoidance algorithms were focused. Therefore, improved environment recognition algorithms, which are higher accuracy and faster processing speed than ones of the previous algorithms, were proposed. Moreover, by optimizing with integrated control algorithm, the memory issue of irregular system shutdown was prevented. Therefore, the maneuvering stability of the autonomous vehicle in severe environment were enhanced.

본 논문에서는 충격성 잡음(impulsive noise) 환경 하에서 고유치 분포가 큰 입력 신호를 다루기 위해 제안된 부호 부밴드 적응 필터(Sign Subband Adaptive Filter, SSAF)의 성능을 향상시키기 위한 새로운 SSAF를 제안하였다. 기존에 제안된 SSAF는 각각의 부밴드 입력 신호를 모든 부밴드 입력 신호의 $l_2-norm$으로 정규화하기 때문에 밴드의 수를 증가시켜도 수렴속도가 향상되지 않는다. 본 논문에서는 부밴드 입력 신호를 각각의 부밴드 입력 신호의 $l_2-norm$으로 정규화하며 밴드의 수를 증가시킴에 따라 수렴속도가 증가하는 새로운 부호 부밴드 적응필터를 제안하였다. 시스템 식별 환경에서 두 알고리즘의 성능을 비교하는 컴퓨터 모의 실험을 수행하여 제안된 알고리즘의 수렴속도가 더 빠름을 보였다.

PURPOSES: This study is to develop a road traffic sign recognition and automatic positioning for road facility management. METHODS: In this study, we installed the GPS, IMU, DMI, camera, laser sensor on the van and surveyed the car position, fore-sight image, point cloud of traffic signs. To insert automatic position of traffic sign, the automatic traffic sign recognition S/W developed and it can log the traffic sign type and approximate position, this study suggests a methodology to transform the laser point-cloud to the map coordinate system with the 3D axis rotation algorithm. RESULTS: Result show that on a clear day, traffic sign recognition ratio is 92.98%, and on cloudy day recognition ratio is 80.58%. To insert exact traffic sign position. This study examined the point difference with the road surveying results. The result RMSE is 0.227m and average is 1.51m which is the GPS positioning error. Including these error we can insert the traffic sign position within 1.51m CONCLUSIONS: As a result of this study, we can automatically survey the traffic sign type, position data of the traffic sign position error and analysis the road safety, speed limit consistency, which can be used in traffic sign DB.

A finger language helping hearing impaired people in communication A sign language helping hearing impaired people in communication is not popular to ordinary healthy people. In this paper, we propose a method for real-time sign language recognition from a vision system using color information and fuzzy clustering system. We use YCbCr color model and canny mask to decide the position of hands and the boundary lines. After extracting regions of two hands by applying 8-directional contour tracking algorithm and morphological information, the system uses FCM in classifying sign language signals. In experiment, the proposed method is proven to be sufficiently efficient.

본 논문에서는 2개의 비전 센서와 딥 러닝을 이용한 자율주행 차량의 속도제어 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 비전 센서 A로부터 제공되는 도로 속도 표지판 영상에 딥 러닝 프로그램인 텐서플로우를 이용하여 속도 표지를 인식한 후, 자동차가 인식된 속도를 따르도록 하는 자동차 속도 제어 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 동시에 비전 센서 B부터 전송되는 도로 영상을 실시간으로 분석하여 차선을 검출하고 조향 각을 계산하며 PWM 제어를 통해 전륜 차축을 제어, 차량이 차선을 추적하도록 하는 조향 각 제어 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 제안된 조향 각 및 속도 제어 알고리즘의 유효성을 검증하기 위해서 파이썬 언어, 라즈베리 파이 및 Open CV를 기반으로 하는 자동차 시작품을 제작하였다. 또한, 시험 제작한 트랙에서 조향 및 속도 제어에 관한 시나리오를 검증함으로써 정확성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Blind equalization is a technique for adaptive equalization of a communication channel without the aid of training sequences. This paper proposes a new blind equalization algorithm. The advantage of the new algorithm is that it has the lower residual error than the GA (proposed by Godard) and Sign_GA (proposed by Weerackody et al.). The superior performance of the proposed algorithm is illustrated for the 16-QAM signal constellation. A Rummler channel model is assumed as a transmission medium. The performance of the proposed algorithm is compared to the GA, Sign_GA and Stop & Go Algorithm (SGA). The simulation results demonstrate that an improvement in performance is achieved with the proposed equalization algorithm.

The performance of the adaptive noise canceller using LMS algorithm is degraded by the gradient noise due to target speech signals. An adaptive noise canceller with speech detector was proposed to reduce this performande degradation. The speech detector utilized the adaptive prediction-error filter adapted by the NLMS algorithm. This paper discusses to enhance the performance of the adaptive noise canceller forthecorlored noise. The affine projection algorithm, which is known as faster than NLMS algorithm for correlated signals, is used to adapt the adaptive filter and the adaptive prediction error filter. When the voice signals are detected by the speech detector, coefficients of adaptive filter are adapted by the sign-error afine projection algorithm which is modified to reduce the miaslignment of adaptive filter coefficients. Otherwirse, they are adapted by affine projection algorithm. To obtain better performance, the proper step size of sign-error affine projection algorithm is discussed. As resutls of computer simulation, it is shown that the performance of the proposed ANC is better than that of conventional one.

The convergence analysis of the improved multiplication free adaptive digital filter (IMADF) with a fractionally-spaced equalizer (FSE) to remove the intersymbol interference (ISI) in fast data transmission is presented. The IMADF structure use the one-step predicted filter in the multiplication-free adaptive digital filter (MADF) structure using the DPCM and Sign algorithm. In the experimental results, the IMADF algorithm has reduced the computational complexity by use of only the addition operation without a multiplier. Also, under the condition of identical stationary-state error, it could obtain the stabled convergence characteristic that the IMADF algorithm is almost same as the sign algorithm, but is better than the MADF algorithm. Here, this algorithm has effective characteristics when the correlation of the input signal is highly.
