  • Patent number: 7212671
    Abstract: A method for extracting a shape variation descriptor from image sequence data for content-based image retrieval is disclosed. The method for extracting the shape variation descriptor from image sequence data for content-based image retrieval, image sequence data representing variation of object through a plurality of frames, the method includes the steps of creating a frame including variation information and shape information by accumulating the plurality of frames, the centroid of object regions in each frame aligned; and extracting shape descriptor from the frame.

  • Patent number: 7068839
    Abstract: The present invention relates to method for processing color image on image processing system. The method for processing color image on image processing system includes the steps of: extracting from the color image hue, luminance and saturation which are the factors of the color image; setting the saturation factor as predetermined constant by normalizing the saturation factor; transforming the color image into complex number using the hue factor and luminance factor. Accordingly, an image processing system can reduce the load of color image processing by way of present invention that reduces the redundancy between the factors of color images through transforming the three factors of the color image into complex number.

  • Publication number: 20050099060
    Abstract: A torsion beam axle suspension is provided, in which a shock absorber is directly mounted on right and left trailing arms and is further mounted to the mount by a ball joint. Thus, it is possible to reduce the weight and production expenses, thus to enhance productivity. Further, it is possible to considerably decrease a friction caused by movement of the shock absorber even though the transverse force is applied, thus to enhance the riding comfort.
