This paper presents machine vision technique with a camera modeling that accounts for major sources of camera distortion, namely, radial, decentering, and thin prism distortion. Radial distortion causes an inward or outward displacement of a given image point from its ideal location. Actual optical systems are subject to various degrees of decentering, that is, the optical centers of lens elements are not strictly collinear. It is our purpose to develop the vision system for the pattern recognition and the automatic test of parts and to apply the line of manufacturing.

Polar fomat algorithm (PFA) was derived from medical imaging theory, known as back projection, to process synthetic aperture radar(SAR) data. The difference between the operating condition of SAR and back projection assumption makes two distortions. First, the focusing performance of PFA is degraded in proportion to distances from the scene center. Second, the geometric accuracy in SAR images is distorted. Several methods were introduced to mitigate the distortions, but some disadvantages, such as the geometric discontinuity, are arisen when sub-images are combined. This paper proposes the novel method to compensate the geometric distortion with chirp Z-transform (CZT). This method corrects precisely the geometric errors without any problems, because a whole image can be processed all at once.

The welding distortion of a hull structure in the shipbuilding industry is inevitable at each assembly stage. The geometric inaccuracy caused by welding distortion tends to preclude the introduction of automation and mechanization and requires additional man-hours for adjustment work during the following assembly stage. To overcome this problem, a distortion control method should be applied. For this purpose, it is necessary to develop an accurate prediction method that can explicitly account for the influence of various factors on the welding distortion. The validity of this prediction method must also be clarified through experiments. For the purpose of reducing the weld-induced bending deflection, this paper proposes the plastic counter-deforming method (PCDM), which uses line heating as the optimum distortion control method. The validity of this method was substantiated by a number of numerical simulations and actual measurements.

In order to minimize the weld-induced angular distortion in thick weldments, this paper proposes the optimum groove design for various plate thicknesses as the distortion control method.

This paper a new approach to the design of machine vision technique with a camera modeling that accounts for major sources of geometric distortion, namely, radial, decentering, and thin prism distortion. Radial distortion causes an inward or outward displacement of a given image point from its ideal location. Actual optical systems are subject to various degrees of decentering , that is , the optical centers of lens design and manufacturing as well as camera assembly. It is our propose to develop the vision system for the pattern recognition and the automatic test of parts and to apply the line of manufacturing. The performance of proposed vision system is illustrated by simulation and experiment.

In this paper, we propose a method that corrects the geometric distortion of mouth in an image. the method is composed of two steps - detecting key points and correcting geometric distortion. First, key points of lips in source and destination images are found by using lips detection algorithm. Then, the two images are mapped by using affine transformation and information found in first step. In experiment result for various mouths with different geometric distortion, we found that the proposed method have satisfactory efficiency.

Document images captured by scanners have only skewing distortion. But camera captured document images have not only skew but also vignetting effect and geometric distortion. Vignetting effect, which makes the border areas to be darker than the center of the image, make it difficult to separate characters from the document images. But this effect has being decreased, as the lens manufacturing skill is developed. Geometric distortion, occurred by the mismatch of angle and center position between the document image and the camera, make the shape of characters to be distorted, so that the character recognition is more difficult than the case of using scanner. In this paper, we propose a method that can increase the performance of character recognition by correcting the geometric distortion of document images using a linear approximation which changes the quadrilateral region to the rectangle one. The proposed method also determine the quadrilateral transform region automatically, using the alignment of character lines and the skewed angles of characters located in the edges of each character line. Proposed method, therefore, can correct the geometric distortion without getting positional information from camera.
