Abstract: In an image processing system, an outline correction of image data and a smoothing for noise removal are performed. Generally, the outline correction is performed by emphasizing a high frequency component, and the smoothing is performed by removing the high frequency component. Within one image data, by properly switching the emphasizing and the removal of the high frequency component, while the outline correction is carried out, the noise removal can be performed. An absolute value of a high frequency component Fa extracted from the image data Pi by a first differential filter (2) is compared with a discrimination threshold value K, and depending on the comparison result, either Fa or -Fa as the correction data Fo is selected by a selctor (6) and is added to the image data Pi. As a result, when        Fo = Fa,          the high frequency component is emphasized, and when Fo = -Fa, smoothing is performed. A pixel interpolation and a multi picture formation are also disclosed.

Abstract: An ignition timing control system for an internal combustion engine that estimates the octane number of the fuel being used based on the state of engine combustion knocking and controls the ignition timing to a value not exceeding the knocking limit. The basic ignition timing is set along the knocking limit of fuel having least octane number and the maximum advance amount is set between the knocking limit and the second knocking limit of fuel having maximum octane number. Octane number is estimated from the occurrence of knocking. On the other hand, upper limit of the estimated octane number is set based on the MBT of the engine such that the estimated octane number is limited with the upper limit. Advance rate is determined based on the estimated octane number and is multiplied to the maximum advance amount to determine an ignition timing correction amount. The ignition timing is finally determined from the basic ignition timing and the ignition timing correction amount. A learning control is conducted for the octane number estimated and the estimated octane number is limited within the learned value.

Abstract: A three dimensional imaging radar system and method for generating and processing radar information to produce a three dimensional image of objects viewed by the system. The system is designed to create three dimensional images of physical objects at relatively short range, up to a distance of about 1000 feet. The radar system comprises a servo controlled antenna system, wherein the servo system provides azimuth and elevation pointing angle output signals. Two radar transmitters provide radar signals in two different radar bands that are selectively transmitted by the antenna system as a radar beam. A radar receiver preprocesses radar return signals reflected from targets. A digital signal processor is provided that processes the radar return signals from targets and which embodies system improvements comprising a Fourier transform processor, a coherent integrator that provides low pass and high pass filtering to reduce noise, a detector comprising a digital Pythagorean processor that converts the radar return signals into amplitude values for each range bin, a noncoherent integrator, and an adaptive threshold comparator. A buffer memory is is provided that has a predetermined number of range cells that store the amplitude of the radar return signal at each range. A digital scan converter comprising a three dimensional coordinate converter converts the azimuth and elevation pointing angle signals into x, y and z addresses of radar signals that are stored in the buffer memory. A computer selectively controls the transmission of the radar signals each radar system, adaptively controls the movement of the antenna system using the servo system, and processes the x, y and z addresses of radar signals stored in the buffer memory to produce a three dimensional image for display on a monitor. A digital sweep linearizer is provided which produces a highly accurate linear sweep signal that drives a voltage tuned oscillator. The coherent integrator provides "noise reducing" low pass or high pass filtering of the signals prior to detection. The bandpass of the filters in the coherent integrator is controlled by the digital signal processor.

Abstract: A scheme for directional counting of moving objects capable of counting moving objects stably while determining passing directions of the moving objects accurately. In this scheme, a counting line is set in an image field of the sequential images, and a dynamic image formed by pixels forming the counting line is obtained for each frame and while a succesively updated background image is obtained. Then, a subtraction and binarization processing are applied to the dynamic image and the background image to extract a moving object region, and a moving object image is formed by sequentially labeling the moving object region in time order. Then, a number of moving objects passing through a monitoring target location is counted according to the moving object image, while upper and lower direction judgement regions are set above and below the counting line and a passing direction of each moving object is determined by judging one of the upper and lower direction judgement regions in which the moving object is present at a time of a formation start/end time of the moving object image.

Abstract: A skin-color-area detector detects skin-color-area in one frame from input video signals, and outputs it. An average luminance level detector detects an average luminance level in one frame from luminance signals of the video signals, and output it. These two outputs are fed to a skin-color-corrector, wherein these inputs representing condition of video signals are calculated to produce skin-color-correction signals responding to the input signals. At a saturation controller and at a luminance signal corrector, a skin-color is optimumly corrected in the manner of responding to the input video signals by the outputs from the skin-color-corrector. Thereby reproduction quality of skin-color signals in video signals are enhanced. 
     Instead of the skin-color-area detector, an average skin-color-luminance-level detector which detects an average luminance level in one frame from color difference signals and luminance signals of the video signals can be used, and the output of the average skin-color-luminance-level detector can be applied to the skin-color-corrector. Not only either one, but also both the skin-color-area detector and the average skin-color-luminance-level detector also can be used, and the outputs from both detectors in addition to an output of an average luminance level detector can be fed to the skin-color-corrector.

Abstract: A routing approach is selected in a conversational mode while routing efficiency is consulted to compose routing processing procedure so as to generate a routing program (11A-11Z) (Figs. 1, 2). Besides, component placement processing procedures designated according to placement control information are combined to generate the placement program (6A - 6Z) (Figs. 3, 4). A straight line between component pins (13, 13A, 13B) adjacent to each other is defined as a chord (14), a wave for maze method routing is generated from a start point (13A) toward an end point (13B) of a routing path and propagated between the chords (14) adjacent to each other. Positions of the chords (14) through which the wave has passed until reaching the end point (13B) from the start point (13A) are successively stored and the positions through which the wave has passed is traced back to the start point (13A) from the end point (13B) when the wave reaches the end point (13B) to decide a routing path of the routing pattern (Fig. 5). Such methods and apparatus are applicable to routing design or component placement design of LSIs, multichip modules, printed circuit boards, etc., and can assist in finding an optimum solution in automatic routing or automatic placement with certainty and at a high-speed to improve a routing rate, and in realizing automatic routing in a high-density.
