Recently, with the development of artificial intelligence and IoT technology, the importance of video processing such as object tracking, medical imaging, and object recognition is increasing. In particular, the noise reduction technology used in the preprocessing process demands the ability to effectively remove noise and maintain detailed features as the importance of system images increases. In this paper, we provide a modified weight filter based on pixel matching in an AWGN environment. The proposed algorithm uses a pixel matching method to maintain high-frequency components in which the pixel value of the image changes significantly, detects areas with highly relevant patterns in the peripheral area, and matches pixels required for output calculation. Classify the values. The final output is obtained by calculating the weight according to the similarity and spatial distance between the matching pixels with the center pixel in order to consider the edge component in the filtering process.

Time series are comprehensively appeared and developed in many applications, ranging from science and technology to business and entertainrilent. Similarity search under time warping has attracted much interest between the time series in the large sequence databases. DTW (Dynamic Time Warping) is a robust distance measure and is superior to Euclidean distance for time series, allowing similarity matching although one of the sequences can elastic shift along the time axis. Nevertheless, it is more unfortunate that DTW has a quadratic time. Simultaneously the false dismissals are come forth since DTW distance does not satisfy the triangular inequality. In this paper, we propose an efficient range query algorithmbased on a new similarity search method under time warping. When our range query applies for this method, it can remove the significant non-qualify time series as early as possible before computing the accuracy DTW distance. Hence, it speeds up the calculation time and reduces the number of scanning the time series. Guaranteeing no false dismissals, the lower bounding function is advised that consistently underestimate the DTW distance and satisfy the triangular inequality. Through the experimental result, our range query algorithm outperforms the existing others.

XML has become a standard for data representation and exchange on the Internet. With a large number of XML documents on the Web, there is an increasing need to automatically process those structurally rich documents for information retrieval, document management, and data mining applications. In this paper, we propose a new method to measure the similarity between XML documents by considering their structures and contents. The similarity of document's structure is found by a simple string matching technique and that of document's contents is found by weights taking into account of the names and positions of elements. The overall algorithm runs in time that is linear in the combined size of the two documents involved in comparison evaluation.

New methods to register multiple hemispheric slices of the postmortem brain to anatomically corresponding in-vivo MRI slices within a 3D volumetric MRI are presented. Gel-embedding and fiducial markers are used to reduce geometrical distortions in the postmortem brain volume. The registration algorithm relies on a recursive extraction of warped MRI slices from the reference MRI volume using a modified non-linear polynomial transformation until matching slices are found. Eight different voxel similarity measures are tested to get the best co-registration cost and the results show that combination of two different similarity measures shows the best performance. After validating the implementation and approach through simulation studies, the presented methods are applied to real data. The results demonstrate the feasibility and practicability of the presented co­registration methods, thus providing a means of MR signal analysis and histological examination of tissue lesions via co­registered images of postmortem brain slices and their corresponding MRI sections. With this approach, it is possible to investigate the pathology of a disease through both routinely acquired MRls and postmortem brain slices, thus improving the understanding of the pathological substrates and their progression.

The purpose of this research is to develop the Automatic Fingerprint Verfication System by digital computer based on specially in PC level. Fingerprint is used as means of personal identity verification in view of that it has the high reliability and safety. Fingerprint pattern recognition algorithm is constitute of 3 stages, namely of the preprocessing, the feature extraction and the recognition. The preprocessing stage includes smoothing, binarization, thinning and restoration. The feature extraction stage includes the extraction of minutiae and its features. The recognition stage includes the registration and the matching score calculation which measures the similarity between two images. Tests for this study with 325 pairs of fingerprint resulted in 100% of separation which which in turn is turned out to be the reliability of this algorithm.

In this paper, a wavelet-based stereo matching algorithm to obtain an accurate disparity map in wavelet transformed domain by using a shift ability property, a modified wavelet transform, the similarities for their sub-bands, and a hierarchical structure is proposed. New approaches for stereo matching by lots of feature information are to utilize translation-variant results of the sub-bands in the wavelet transformed domain because they cannot literally expect translation invariance in a system based on convolution and sub-sampling. After the similarity matching for each sub-band, we can easily find optimal matched-points because the sub-bands appearance of the shifted signals is definitely different from that of the original signal with no shift.

In modern society, various digital communication equipment is being used due to the influence of the 4th industrial revolution. Accordingly, interest in removing noise generated in a data transmission process is increasing, and research is being conducted to efficiently reconstruct an image. In this paper, we propose a filtering algorithm to remove the AWGN generated in the digital image transmission process. The proposed algorithm classifies pixels with high similarity by selecting regions with similar patterns around the input pixels according to block matching to remove the AWGN that appears strongly in the image. The selected pixel determines the estimated value by applying the weight obtained by the local steering kernel, and obtains the final output by adding or subtracting the input pixel value according to the standard deviation of the center mask. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm, it was simulated with existing AWGN removal algorithms, and comparative analysis was performed using enlarged images and PSNR.

A set of clustering algorithms with proper weight on the formulation of distance which extend to mixed numeric and multiple binary values is presented. A simple matching and Jaccard coefficients are used to measure similarity between objects for multiple binary attributes. Similarities are converted to dissimilarities between i th and j th objects. The performance of clustering algorithms with balancing weight on different similarity measures is demonstrated. Our experiments show that clustering algorithms with application of proper weight give competitive recovery level when a set of data with mixed numeric and multiple binary attributes is clustered.

In this paper, we propose a new method for template matching, patch ratio, to inpaint unknown pixels. Before this paper, many inpainting methods used sum of squared differences(SSD) or sum of absolute differences(SAD) to calculate distance between patches and it was very useful for closest patches for the template that we want to fill in. However, those methods don't consider about geometric similarity and that causes unnatural inpainting results for human visuality. Patch ratio can cover the geometric problem and moreover computational cost is less than using SSD or SAD. It is guaranteed about finding the most similar patches by Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. For ignoring unnecessary process, we compare only selected candidates by priority calculations. Exeperimental results show that the proposed algorithm is more efficent than Criminisi's one.
