Special Events

Special Event 1: Future Trends in Image Information and Media Technology

  1. Toward Next Decade of Image Sensing Technology
    Junichi Akita
    Kanazawa University (Japan)

    Image sensing technology, especially image sensors, are integration of the wide variety of technology from physics, electronic circuit, optics, systems, and software. In recent years, the relations of these technology areas are getting closer, and exploring the novel field of applications and basic principles. In this talk, the topics on image sensing technology for next decade are introduced and discussed.

  2. The Past, Present and Future of Broadcasting Technologies
    Hidekazu Murata
    Kyoto University (Japan)

    In the last decade, analog television broadcasting has ended and the new 4K8K satellite broadcasting has started. The Technical Group on Broadcasting and Communication Technologies (BCT) has been actively engaged in research and development to support this major transformation. Our research and development includes wireless and optical transmission technologies, the world's first 8K transmission experiment in the UHF band, and the hybridcast services. In this talk, the future prospects of the following areas will be addressed: next-generation terrestrial digital broadcasting, visible light communication, XR technology, and the utilization of wireless technology after 5G.

  3. Grand Challenges of Media Engineering over Next Decade

    1. NTT Communications (Japan), 2. Fujitsu (Japan)

    Media engineering covers diverse and fast-growing topics from basic theories of image/video processing to best practices of real-world applications. In this talk we discuss five major technological challenges of media engineering in the next 10 years including (1) large-scale media understanding, (2) media generation and forensics, (3) autonomous evolution of AI, (4) diversity of correctness, and (5) mutual understanding between technology and society. We also discuss future relationships between media engineering and display technology.

 

Special Event 2: The Web of Things (WoT)

  1. Overview of Web of Things (WoT)
    Kazuyuki Ashimura
    Keio University (Japan)

    It's almost 20 years since the term "Internet of Things (IoT)" started to be used, and now various "Things" are connected with each other. However, IoT implementations tend to be different based on the vendors and industry areas, so we're in a difficult situation with "IoT Silos" including different IoT frameworks without interoperability. To cope with that situation, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has been working on "Web of Things (WoT)" to achieve IoT interoperability. Two W3C Recommendations have been published and now W3C is working on extensions for those specifications to achieve finer-grained industry applications and WoT deployment.

  2. IoT-based Media Framework for Autonomous Media Presentation in Diverse Environments
    Hiroki Endo
    NHK (Japan)

    We describe "IoT-based Media Framework," a media presentation framework that autonomously presents content using appropriate devices including displays and various appliances via suitable presentation methods for users. The framework provides a user-centric experience with semantic descriptions that represent three important aspects of media presentation —content, environment (including devices), and user context— that is essential for public service media. Using the Web of Things recommendation of World Wide Web Consortium, we demonstrate the prototype implementation to extend content expression and to improve accessibility to people with disabilities thus furthering the provision of universal services.

  3. Web as the Platform for Media Distribution
    Kazuyuki Ashimura
    Keio University (Japan)

    As mentioned in the former talk, "Web of Things (WoT)" is a Web-based technology for IoT interoperability, and can be applied to various future industries such as smart homes and smart cities. On the other hand, the Web technologies in general have been already applied to various existing industries and services, e.g., search engine, video distribution and e-shopping, and you can access everything simply using your smartphones. This talk will discuss the expectations for the possible next-generation Web services based on the combination of already deployed Web technologies and WoT from the viewpoint of media distribution.

1. XTPL S.A. (Poland)
We demonstrate an ultra-precise deposition (UPD) technology for fabrication of next-generation displays. UPD allows deposition of highly-concentrated silver inks (up to 85% wt. of solid content) on complex substrates. The printed feature size is from 1 to 10 μm, with the electrical conductivity up to 40% of the bulk value.

Development of Highly Heat-Resistant, Dry-Etchable Blackening Film for TFT Wiring
*Daisuke Kaneko1, Keita Umemoto1, Hiromi Nakazawa1, Shin Okano1, Yukiya Sugiuchi1, Takeshi Ohtomo1
1. Mitsubishi Materials Corporation (Japan)
We developed blackening material to enhance the heat resistance targeting to LTPS TFTs wiring. Moreover, we investigated the influence of deposition conditions for film properties. Lastly, we also discussed properties of TFT when the blackening material applied to not only the gate electrode but also source/drain electrode.

AISp1: AIS

Dec. 2  17:00-19:00

AISp1-1 Real-Time Gender Classification from Gait Features Using Convolutional Neural Networks
*Kazuki Mizutani1
1. Gifu University (Japan)
I use walking silhouettes, which are not affected by wearing a mask, to classify gender. With conventional methods, only angle-dependent discriminators existed. However, by using deep learning, I have succeeded in creating a discriminator that does not depend on the angle and has the same accuracy.
AISp1-2 Image Matching for Unspecified Target Objects Using Geometric Edge Features
*Ryusei Shibakawa1, Fumihiko Saitoh1
1. Graduate School of Gifu University (Japan)
In this paper, we propose a method for detecting the same object that is mixed in two images. In this method, image matching is performed using block matching [1] and geometric edge features.
AISp1-3 Recognition of the Spectacles Area from the Profile ImageBased on Primary Differentiation Processing
*Yuki Onishi1, Fumihiko Saitoh1
1. Gifu University (Japan)
We propose a method to determine whether or not spectacles are worn from the profile image. Detecting straight lines and labeling from the profile image that emphasizes the line area and differentiated. It is possible to determine by calculating where the positions of the straight lines and the labeled objects.

AISp2-1 Extraction of Text Areas in Scene Images by Focusing on Local Contour Density and Corner Pixel Ratio
*Naoya Taira1, Fumihiko Saitoh1
1. Gifu University Graduate School (Japan)
Extraction of character regions is necessary in various fields such as automatic driving. In this paper, we propose a method for extracting character regions from scene images. The method identifies characters by a neural network using local contour density and corner pixel ratio. The experimental results show that the proposed method obtains sufficient accuracy for character region extraction.

*Hong Ming Dai1, Tzu Yi Yu1, Chien Ju Lee1, Yu Hsiang Tsai 1, Kuan Ting Chen1
1. ITRI/Electronic and Optoelectronic System Research Laboratories (Taiwan)
In this research, we have developed dynamic information fusion interactive system with transparent display applied in the mobile field. The dynamic information fusion interactive system integrate four main technologies: gaze tracking, relative position acquisition, fusion information mapping and visual field tracking adaptive information generation. For the part of visual field tracking adaptive information generation, we let the position and numbers of fusion information change as...

Special Topics of Interest on AR/VR and Hyper Reality

Dec. 2  17:00-19:00

3Dp4/AISp4-1L Development of a Multi-Projection System for High-Resolution Directional Volumetric Display
*Moeka Abe1, Naoto Hoshikawa2, Hirotaka Nakayama3, Tomoyoshi Ito1, Atsushi Shiraki1
1. Chiba University (Japan), 2. National Institute of Technology, Oyama College (Japan), 3. National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (Japan)
The resolution of directional volumetric display can be improved using threads and a projector by increasing the number of threads. However, the number of threads that may be projected from a single projector is limited. In this study, we developed a system to project images from multiple projectors.

Automated, expressive facial animation is crucial for AI avatars in the VR space. We propose a real-time method for facial animation based on Japanese vowels. The user study revealed that our facial expression was more natural than the popular method (Oculus Lipsync) in mouth motion synchronous to speech audio stream.
