This paper designs and implements a smart care system for the senior citizen who lives alone. Recently, as the level of living has increased due to the rapid improvement of medicine, living standard and environment, the proportion of the elderly population is increasing. In addition, the proportion of the elderly living alone, which is increasing with the aging society, suggests that the provision of services such as the elder care system and emergency notification is becoming an important issue. However, since the existing emergency notification technology analyzes fixed CCTV images, it is difficult to monitor in the blind spot of CCTV and to move to a place where the camera is not installed. There is a problem that it can not be performed. Therefore, in this paper, we design and develop a smart care system that utilizes robot and object tracking technology that can move in real time to overcome these shortcomings. This enables real-time monitoring regardless of the location, and prompts for assistance in case of an emergency, so that it can provide convenience to cares and assistants.

웹 카메라로부터 입력된 비디오 영상으로부터 실시간 얼굴 인식은 빠르고 정확한 시스템이 요구된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 객체 분류 기법인 SVM을 이용하여 실시간 다중 얼굴 인식이 가능한 시스템 구현에 중점을 두었다. 본 논문은 얼굴 skin/non-skin 정보를 이용한 얼굴 후보 영역의 검출 단계, 얼굴/비얼굴의 검출 단계, 그리고 얼굴의 인식 단계로 구성되어 있다. 각각의 단계별로 SVM을 적용하였고 각 SVM은 오프라인상의 학습 부분과 온라인상의 테스트 부분으로 구성되어 있고, SVM의 QP 최적화 문제를 해결하기 위해 학습 알고리즘인 SMO을 적용하였다. 팬(Pan)-틸트(Tilt) 제어가 가능한 저가형 웹 카메라를 이용하여 자동으로 얼굴 위치를 추적, 이동하면서 얼굴 인식을 수행하였다.

실내 위치 환경에서 많이 사용되고 있는 삼각 측량 기법은 TOA(Time of Arrival) 신호를 사용하기 때문에 건물의 외벽이나 창의 메탈 성분 같은 장애물로 인한 전파의 반사와 회절, 분산 등의 NLOS(Non-Line-Of-Sight) 환경으로 인하여 정확한 위치추적이 어렵다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 이러한 문제점을 줄이기 위해서 Anchor로부터 수신되는 TOA의 range measurement의 표준 편차를 측정하여 LOS와 NLOS를 구분하고, 발견된 NLOS를 보정하는 방법에 대하여 연구한다. 또한 위치 정확도를 높이기 위하여 칼만 필터를 수행하여 이동객체의 위치를 생성하는 실내 환경에서의 위치 추적 시스템을 설계한다.

In this paper we proposed a multi event handling surveillance system using multiple PTZ cameras. One event is assigned to each PTZ camera to detect unusual situation. If a new object appears in the scene while a camera is tracking the old one, it can not handle two objects simultaneously. In the second case that the object moves out of the scene during the tracking, the camera loses the object. In the proposed method, the nearby camera takes the role to trace the new one or detect the lost one in each case. The nearby camera can get the new object location information from old camera and set the seamless event link for the object. Our simulation result shows the continuous camera-to-camera object tracking performance.

RFID 시스템에서 태그를 부착한 객체의 위치를 추적하는 응용이 중요하며 태그 위치를 추적하기 위한 질의를 효율적으로 처리하기 위해서는 태그 궤적의 저장 및 검색을 빠르게 처리 할 수 있는 색인이 필요하다. 기존의 시공간 기반 이동체 색인과는 달리 태그 위치 색인은 태그 식별자(tid), 리더 식별자(rid), 시간(time)을 도메인으로 가진다. RFID 환경에서는 태그 위치 색인의 rid 와 tid 도메인의 크기가 크고 한쪽 도메인으로 불균등한 영역 질의의 발생이 빈번하다. 따라서, 최소 면적 확장 정책에 따른 기존의 이동체 색인의 삽입 기법을 태그 위치 색인에 그대로 적용했을 경우 질의 영역과 생성된 노드 간의 겹침이 심하게 되어 색인 검색 비용이 증가하는 문제가 발생한다. 논문에서는 R$^{\ast}$-tree 의 삽입 정책을 따르는 태그 위치 색인의 삽입 방법으로 불균형 확장 정책을 제안한다. 제안한 삽입 정책은 둘레길이에 가중치를 부여하는 방법이며 이러한 정책을 사용함으로써 불균등한 질의 영역으로 인해 발생하는 질의 영역과 노드간의 중첩을 최소화하여 검색 시 노드 접근 횟수를 줄인다. 또한 실험을 통하여 기존 삽입 방법인 최소 면적 확장 정책의 삽입 비용과 검색 비용을 비교하였으며 그 결과 불균등한 질의 영역을 가지는 RFID 환경에서 삽입 및 검색 비용을 줄여 성능을 향상시켰다.

In industrial fields like big factories, efficient management of resources is critical in terms of time and expense. So, inefficient management of resources leads to additional costs. Nevertheless, in many cases, there is no proper system to manage resources. This study proposes a system to manage and track large-scale resources efficiently. We attached Bluetooth 5.0-based beacons to our target resources to track them in real time, and by saving their transportation data we can understand flows of resources. Also, we applied a diagonal survey method to estimate the location of beacons so we are able to build an efficient and accurate system. As a result, We achieve 47% more accurate results than traditional trilateration method.

The surveillance system in general, has been sufficiently studied in the field of wireless semiconductor using basic sensors and its study of image surveillance system mainly using camera as a sensor has especially been fully implemented. In this paper, we propose 'Intelligent Image Detection System' used by image object identification technique based on the result analysis of various researches. This 'Intelligent Image Detection System' can easily trace and judge before and after a particular incident and ensure affirmative evidence and numerous relative information. Therefore, the 'Intelligent Image Detection System' proposed in this paper can be effectively used in the lived society such as traffic management, disaster alarm system and etc.

Typically, closed-circuit television (CCTV) monitoring is mainly used for post-processes (i.e. to provide evidence after an incident has occurred), but by using a streaming video feed, machine-based learning, and advanced image recognition techniques, current technology can be extended to respond to crimes or reports of missing persons in real time. The multi-CCTV cooperation technique developed in this study is a program model that delivers similarity information about a suspect (or moving object) extracted via CCTV at one location and sent to a monitoring agent to track the selected suspect or object when he, she, or it moves out of range to another CCTV camera. To improve the operating efficiency of local government CCTV control centers, we describe here the partial automation of a CCTV control system that currently relies upon monitoring by human agents. We envisage an integrated crime prevention service, which incorporates the cooperative CCTV network suggested in this study and that can easily be experienced by citizens in ways such as determining a precise individual location in real time and providing a crime prevention service linked to smartphones and/or crime prevention/safety information.

GPS/GIS and RFID technologies have been changing the paradigm af our society toward ubiquitous era. Especially, geographically distributed mobile agents with transporting objects need to be automatically recognizable and traceable under certain conditions. To do this, fundamental theories and technologies are required to specify and verify spatial and temporal behaviors of agents on geographical space. This paper presents a new formal method, called Calculus of Real-Time Distribution, Mobility, and Interaction (CaRDMI), for this purpose. For specification, CaRDMI defines a map, mobile agents with transporting objects. The movement of on agent is represented by a path on the map, consisting of a list of nodes and a list of edges with spatial and temporal constraints. Interactive constraints among agents are represented by synchronization modes on objects at nodes. These constraints are distinguishable features of CaRDMI from other methods. Especially, many-to-many timed synchronization constraints are noticeable. For verification, CaRDMI presents the spatial, temporal and interactive deduction rules and the spatial and temporal equivalence relations.

Queries for tracing tag locations are among the most challenging requirements in RFID based applications, including automated manufacturing, inventory tracking and supply chain management. For efficient query processing, a previous study proposed the index scheme for storing tag objects, based on the moving object index, in 3-dimensional domain with the axes being the tag identifier, the reader identifier, and the time. In a different way of a moving object index, the ranges of coordinates for each domain are quite different so that the distribution of query regions is skewed to the reader identifier domain. Previous indexes for tags, however, do not consider the skewed distribution for query regions. This results in producing many overlaps between index nodes and query regions and then causes the problem of traversing many index nodes. To solve this problem, we propose a new disproportional insertion and split policy of the index for RFID tags which is based on the R*-tree. For efficient insertion of tag data, our method derives the weighted margin for each node by using weights of each axis and margin of nodes. Based the weighted margin, we can choose the subtree and the split method in order to insert tag data with the minimum cost. Proposed insertion method also reduces the cost of region query by reducing overlapped area of query region and MBRs. Our experiments show that the index based on the proposed insertion and split method considerably improves the performance of queries than the index based on the previous methods.
