In this paper, an eye tracking method is presented by using on iterated spatial moment adapting weighted gray level that can accurately detect and track user's eyes under the complicated background. The region of face is detected by using Haar-like feature before extracting region of eyes to minimize an region of interest from the input picture of CCD camera. And the region of eyes is detected by using eigeneye based on the eigenface of Principal component analysis. And then feature points of eyes are detected from darkest part in the region of eyes. The tracking of eyes is achieved correctly by using iterated spatial moment adapting weighted gray level.

In this paper, we propose an efficient face region detection technique for the content-based video summarization. To segment video, shot changes are detected from a video sequence and key frames are selected from the shots. We select one frame that has the least difference between neighboring frames in each shot. The proposed face detection algorithm detects face region from selected key frames. And then, we provide user with summarized frames included face region that has an important meaning in dramas or movies. Using Bayes classification rule and statistical characteristic of the skin pixels, face regions are detected in the frames. After skin detection, we adopt the projection method to segment an image(frame) into face region and non-face region. The segmented regions are candidates of the face object and they include many false detected regions. So, we design a classifier to minimize false lesion using CART. From SGLD matrices, we extract the textual feature values such as Inertial, Inverse Difference, and Correlation. As a result of our experiment, proposed face detection algorithm shows a good performance for the key frames with a complex and variant background. And our system provides key frames included the face region for user as video summarized information.

In this paper, we propose a smoker recognition algorithm, detecting smokers in a video sequence in order to prevent fire accidents. We use description-based method in hierarchical approaches to recognize smoker's activity, the algorithm consists of background subtraction, object detection, event search, event judgement. Background subtraction generates slow-motion and fast-motion foreground image from input image using Gaussian mixture model with two different learning-rate. Then, it extracts object locations in the slow-motion image using chain-rule based contour detection. For each object, face is detected by using Haar-like feature and smoke is detected by reflecting frequency and direction of smoke in fast-motion foreground. Hand movements are detected by motion estimation. The algorithm examines the features in a certain interval and infers that whether the object is a smoker. It robustly can detect a smoker among different objects while achieving real-time performance.

Pronunciation recognition systems that use only video information and ignore voice information can be applied to various customized services. In this paper, we develop a system that applies a Bayesian classifier to distinguish Korean vowels via lip shapes in images. We extract feature vectors from the lip shapes of facial images and apply them to the designed machine learning model. Our experiments show that the system's recognition rate is 94% for the pronunciation of 'A', and the system's average recognition rate is approximately 84%, which is higher than that of the CNN tested for comparison. Our results show that our Bayesian classification method with feature values from lip region landmarks is efficient on a small training set. Therefore, it can be used for application development on limited hardware such as mobile devices.

관상학이란 사람의 인상을 관찰하여서 사람의 운명을 판단하고, 그 얻어진 결론을 가지고 길흉의 방법을 구하는 학문이라고 할 수 있다. 사람은 누구나 다른 사람을 볼 때 그 사람의 아름다움이나 추함보다는 인상이 눈에 먼저 들어오는 것은 당연하다고 할 수 있다. 그 얼굴에 인상이 뚜렷하게 나타나는 곳 중 제일은 인당 일 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 외모만으로 성격을 판별하거나 몸매 혹은 얼굴생김에서 직관적 인지를 얻어내는 관상학을 통해 인당의 크기에 따른 성격을 영상 처리 기술로 구현하였다. 즉, 인당은 눈썹과 눈썹사이의 가운데 부분을 말하며, 미간이라고도 부른다. 이와 같은 인당의 크기에 따라 성격의 주요 5대 특징과의 상관성 분석을 통해 눈썹에 따른 성격의 차이를 분석하는 연구를 수행하였다.

In order to improve formal presentation attitudes such as presentation of job interviews and presentation of project results at the company, there are few automated methods other than observation by colleagues or professors. In previous studies, it was reported that the speaker's stable speech and gaze processing affect the delivery power in the presentation. Also, there are studies that show that proper feedback on one's presentation has the effect of increasing the presenter's ability to present. In this paper, considering the positive aspects of correction, we developed a program that intelligently corrects the wrong presentation habits and attitudes of college students through facial analysis of videos and analyzed the proposed program's performance. The proposed program was developed through web-based verification of the use of redundant words and facial recognition and textualization of the presentation contents. To this end, an artificial intelligence model for classification was developed, and after extracting the video object, facial feature points were recognized based on the coordinates. Then, using 4000 facial data, the performance of the algorithm in this paper was compared and analyzed with the case of facial recognition using a Teachable Machine. Use the program to help presenters by correcting their presentation attitude.

In this study, we propose a tongue diagnosis system which detects the tongue from face image and divides the tongue area into six areas, and finally generates tongue fur ratio of each area. To detect the tongue area from face image, we use ASM as one of the active shape models. Detected tongue area is divided into six areas and the distribution of tongue coating of six areas is examined by SVM. For SVM, we use a 3-dimensional vector calculated by PCA from a 12-dimensional vector consisting of RGB, HSV, Lab, and Luv. As a result, we stably detected the tongue area using ASM. Furthermore, we recognized that PCA and SVM helped to raise the ratio of tongue coating detection.

In modem society, human relationships has been received much attention as important element to judge the success as well as the social life of the individual. To respond to these changing times has been used various ways to maintain an appropriate relationship that each other's character can be predicted. In this paper, we should be carried out a study on correlation analysis and features of five-character types to extract shape of philtrum, mouth, ears in facial image of Men in the 20's for Interview system application. From this, we extracted to area of philtrum, mouth, ears by Visual C++ to face and side image. Then we performed analysis, comparison a group of S-character types to find a result according to philtrum rate, mouth size, shape of ears. As a result, we drew a significance through morphological results by philtrum rate, mouth size, shape of ears as five-character types.

In this paper, we introduce the implementation of driver fatigue monitering system and its result. Input video device is selected commercially available web-cam camera. Haar transform is used to face detection and adopted illumination normalization is used for arbitrary illumination conditions. Facial image through illumination normalization is extracted using Haar face features easily. Eye candidate area through illumination normalization can be reduced by anthropometric measurement and eye detection is performed by PCA and Circle Mask mixture model. This methods achieve robust eye detection on arbitrary illumination changing conditions. Drowsiness state is determined by the level on illumination normalize eye images by a simple calculation. Our system alarms and operates seatbelt on vibration through controller area network(CAN) when the driver's doze level is detected. Our algorithm is implemented with low computation complexity and high recognition rate. We achieve 97% of correct detection rate through in-car environment experiments.

Emotional reaction of audience can be decided by observing reaction of audience for content. We can use a method to analyze visual data from video camera to detect reaction of audience fast and economically. This paper proposes the method and system to observe audience reaction from visual data of audience and define via neural network. Also we propose a new method to detect automatically an area for audience reaction with face detection to improve a fixed area assignment method which has a limitation not to adapt depending on audiences. Additionally, the evaluation is implemented to show that the proposed method and system is effective. The proposed method showed the performance elevation of 10.5 % (7.75 hit ration) compared to a fixed area assignment method.
