The use of high frame rate neutron radiography has been proposed as a method for recording images of oil in a running car engine. However, it is difficult to capture the behavior of oil from such images, because the images are dark and blurry. Therefore, we attempt to overcome this problem using a multi-scale image processing technique, in which the oil regions are classified based on scale. This method can be used to focus attention on objects with a particular scale. In addition, we propose a technique by which to capture the time-dependent behavior of oil using spatio-temporal image analysis. Using these techniques, the region of interest can be determined and observed carefully.

In this paper, we report that our image analysis technique, which has be proposed for analyzing large-scale and complex simulation and measurement experiment results in nuclear field was applied to the industrial problems. The Japan Atomic Energy Agency and Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. proposed a high-speed camera using neutron radiography, and developed the technology to capture the flow of oil in a car engine. However the recorded images are blurred, it is difficult to visualize and analyze the behavior of oil in detail. Therefore, we try to overcome this by using multi-scale analysis, which is an image processing technique on image emphasis. In addition, we present a spatio-temporal image analysis for capturing the behavior of oil that is not yet understood in detail. In this presentation, we discuss the effectiveness of our image analysis technique.

An experiment is conducted to measure the water and oil in a metallic object by neutron radiography. In this approach, visualization of the oil in a rotating car engine at high speed is achieved by using the proposed high-speed camera. However, because the oil is mist and liquid, it is difficult to identify these conditions and to analyze them. Therefore, we try to identify the oil condition in the engine by employing a multi-scale analysis, which is an image processing technique.

In branch-and-bound algorithms for integer programming, runtime behavior of the algorithms depends much on branching strategy. However, from a huge computation log of a large program, it is difficult to explore a key factor for effective branching. To analyze which factor of branching strategy is essential, we develop a system for visualization of growing process of a large branch-and-bound tree. The proposed system provides intuitive understanding how branching strategy affects branch-and-bound process.
