Natural science is a way to clarify what is possible or impossible, and engineering is scientific manufacturing. Among them, computer science is a discipline that regards all phenomena and things as a calculation process. Let's study together to acquire specialized knowledge and skills and provide new value to the world.
My major is image processing, especially video motion and flow estimation. Motion and flow information estimated from images is expected to be widely applied to object recognition by computers, self-position estimation and obstacle detection of robots and cars, and fluid measurement and analysis. We are conducting research to estimate motion with high speed and high accuracy. In addition to research, we also teach practical ICT technologies such as programming and server management.

Proceedings of the ... ITE annual convention, (2014) 18-9-1"-"18-9-2", Sep 1, 2014This paper proposes a spatially scalable image coding scheme based on a non-linear image resizing technique called seam carving. In this scheme, the original size image is reconstructed from the reduced size one with a help of side information including paths of the removed seams. To reduce the amount of the side information, evenly spaced multiple seams are removed simultaneously at the resizing stage.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE ITE ANNUAL CONVENTION, 2014 17-10-1_-_17-10-2_, 2014In this paper, we propose a rotation invariant method for human detection from top view images. In the method, local features based on Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) are defined based on polar coordinates. In addition, two dimensional histograms are calculated from pairs of neighboring pels to enhance robustness against small rotation.
-
PROCEEDINGS OF THE ITE ANNUAL CONVENTION, 2014 3-9-1_-_3-9-2_, 2014We previously proposed a semi-automatic 2D-3D conversion method for still images. The method propagates depth information, which is partially given by the user as an input, to a whole image based on local similarity of image values. Therefore, the propagation process must be sufficiently fast for interactive operation. In this paper, we accelerate this process by using a kind of distance transform.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE ITE ANNUAL CONVENTION, 2014 18-3-1_-_18-3-2_, 2014This paper describes a new intra prediction method which is designed to exploit inter-block correlations for DCT based image coding. By changing a coding process of DCT coefficients from block-wise order to coefficient-wise one, the method can benefit from interpolative prediction in almost all blocks.
-
PROCEEDINGS OF THE ITE ANNUAL CONVENTION, 2014 18-10-1_-_18-10-2_, 2014We previously proposed a block-adaptive spatio-temporal prediction method for video coding. In this method, multiple predictors that minimize sum of squared errors are designed for each frame. However, such a least squares approach does not necessarily improve the coding performance. In this paper, we introduce a DCT domain soft shrinkage process to reduce the number of non-zero DCT coefficients to be encoded.

Proceedings of the ... ITE annual convention, (2013) 17-2-1-"17-2-2", Aug 28, 2013As an efficient way for archiving the existing video contents compressed by the old standard, we are developing a lossless re-encoding scheme for MPEG-1 video. In this paper, simplified probability models used for arithmetic coding of DCT coefficients are investigated to reduce computation time needed for our coding scheme.

Proceedings of the ... ITE annual convention, (2013) 17-5-1-"17-5-2", Aug 28, 2013This paper proposes an efficient lossless coding method for color quantized images each of which consists of an array of indices and corrsponding RGB values of representative colors. In the conventional methods, predictive coding techniques developed for lossless image coding are often applied to the array of indices. On the other hand, our method directly predicts a 3D position of each index in a RGB color space to accurately estimate its occurrence probability.

Proceedings of the ... ITE annual convention, (2013) 17-3-1-"17-3-2", Aug 28, 2013We previously proposed a new type of lossy image coding scheme whose compressed data can be losslessly converted into JPEG bitstreams. In this paper, perceptual image quality of our coding scheme is improved by taking account of spatial frequency characteristics of the human visual system. Results of our subjective quality assessment test demonstrate that perceptual quality of the reconstructed images is certainly improved.

Proceedings of the ... ITE annual convention, (2013) 3-5-1-"3-5-2", Aug 28, 2013We propose a stable computation scheme for variational scene-flow computation. Scene flow is a velocity field on a stereo image sequence and represents apparent motions and disparity changes. The stability condition of the proposed scheme is independent of images and regularization coefficients in the variational problem.
-
Proceedings of the ... ITE annual convention, (2013) 13-2-1-"13-2-2", Aug 28, 2013We previously proposed a lossy coding scheme based on recursive-type intra prediction and discrete sine transform (DST) for monochrome still images. In this paper, we extend the scheme to RGB 4:4:4 format color images. In order to exploit intra- and inter-color correlations, the already encoded color signals are simultaneously used in the prediction process.

Proceedings of the ... ITE annual convention, (2013) 11-2-1-"11-2-2", Aug 28, 2013Recently, the coding technology of multi-view video plus depth has been developed to implement 3D video applications such as Free Viewpoints Television. Because depth maps tend to have smooth value within an object and have strong edges between objects, it is efficient to encode depth maps by a region-oriented manner. In this paper, we introduce a segmentation method based on Voronoi diagrams to reduce the amount of information on the region shapes. Moreover, we propose a plane approximation to the depth values in each region.
-
Proceedings of the ... ITE annual convention, (2013) 13-1-1-"13-1-2", Aug 28, 2013In the previous work, we proposed a lossless coding method which dynamically models probability density function (PDF) of image values pel-by-pel. In this method, the PDF model is defined as sum of the generalized Gaussian functions (GGFs) whose peak positions are given by examples collected from causal neighbors. However, the shapes of the GGFs were fixed for each image. In this paper, we introduce a technique of context modeling to adaptively control the respective shapes.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE ITE WINTER ANNUAL CONVENTION, 2013 13-5, 2013Directional intra prediction currently used in H.264/AVC and H.265/HEVC is unsuitable for curved textures because predicted values are always extrapolated along straight lines in a given direction. In this paper, we propose a new prediction technique which enables interpolative prediction along circular curves defined by two kinds of parameters.
