Perceptual Ad-Blocking is a new advertising blocking technique that detects online advertising by using an artificial intelligence-based advertising image classification model. A recent study has shown that these Perceptual Ad-Blocking models are vulnerable to adversarial attacks using adversarial examples to add noise to images that cause them to be misclassified. In this paper, we prove that existing perceptual Ad-Blocking technique has a weakness for several adversarial example and that Defense-GAN and MagNet who performed well for MNIST dataset and CIFAR-10 dataset are good to advertising dataset. Through this, using Defense-GAN and MagNet techniques, it presents a robust new advertising image classification model for adversarial attacks. According to the results of experiments using various existing adversarial attack techniques, the techniques proposed in this paper were able to secure the accuracy and performance through the robust image classification techniques, and furthermore, they were able to defend a certain level against white-box attacks by attackers who knew the details of defense techniques.

최근 휴먼-컴퓨터 인터페이스, 가상현식, 증강현실, 지능형 자동차등에서 얼굴표정 인식에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 얼굴표정인식 연구는 대부분 맨얼굴을 대상으로 하고 있지만 최근 코로나-19로 인해 마스크 착용한 사람들이 많아지면서, 마스크를 착용했을 때의 표정인식에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 본 논문은 마스크를 착용했을 때에도 실시간으로 표정 분류가 가능한 시스템개발을 목표로 구동에 필요한 알고리즘을 조사했고, 그 중 Tiny-YOLOv3와 ResNet50 알고리즘을 이용하기로 했다. 얼굴과 표정 데이터셋 등에서 모은 이미지 데이터를 사용하여 실행해 보고 그 적절성 및 성능에 대해 평가해 보았다.

Doodles, often possess irregular shapes and patterns, making it challenging for artificial intelligence to mechanically recognize and predict patterns in random doodles. Unlike humans who can effortlessly recognize and predict doodles even when circles are imperfect or lines are not perfectly straight, artificial intelligence requires learning from given training data to recognize and predict doodles. In this paper, we leverage a diverse dataset of doodle images from individuals of various nationalities, cultures, left-handedness, and right-handedness. After training two neural networks, we determine which network offers higher accuracy and is more suitable for doodle image prediction. The motivation behind predicting doodle images using artificial intelligence lies in providing a unique perspective on human expression and intent through the utilization of neural networks. For instance, by using the various images generated by artificial intelligence based on human-drawn doodles, we expect to foster diversity in artistic expression and expand the creative domain.

An autonomous agent for real world should be able to recognize text in scenes. With the advancement of deep learning, various DNN models have been utilized for transformation, feature extraction, and predictions. However, the existing state-of-the art STR (Scene Text Recognition) engines do not achieve the performance required for real world applications. In this paper, we introduce a performance-improvement method through an add-on composed of an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) engine and a classifier for STR engines. On instances from IC13 and IC15 datasets which a STR engine failed to recognize, our method recognizes 10.92% of unrecognized characters.

As accessibility toward traditional cultural contents drops compared to its increase in production, the need for higher accessibility for continued management and research to exist. For this, this paper introduces an image classifier model for traditional images based on artificial neural networks, which converts the input image's features into a vector space and by utilizing a RNN based model it recognizes and compares the details of the input which enables the classification of traditional images. This enables the classifiers to classify similarly looking traditional images more precisely by focusing on the details. For the training of this model, a wide range of images were arranged and collected based on the format of the Korean information culture field, which contributes to other researches related to the fields of using traditional cultural images. Also, this research contributes to the further activation of demand, supply, and researches related to traditional culture.

Recently, computer vision field based deep learning artificial intelligence has become a hot topic among various image analysis boundaries. In this study, flames are detected in fire images using the Faster R-CNN algorithm, which is used to detect objects within the image, among various image recognition algorithms based on deep learning. In order to improve fire detection accuracy through a small amount of data sets in the learning process, we use image augmentation techniques, and learn image augmentation by dividing into 6 types and compare accuracy, precision and detection rate. As a result, the detection rate increases as the type of image augmentation increases. However, as with the general accuracy and detection rate of other object detection models, the false detection rate is also increased from 10% to 30%.

Finding texts in general scene images and recognizing their contents is a very important task that can be used as a basis for robot vision, visual assistance, and so on. However, for the low-resolution text images, the degradations, such as noise or blur included in text images, are more noticeable, which leads to severe performance degradation of text recognition accuracy. In this paper, we propose a new Korean text image super-resolution based on a Transformer-based model, which generally shows higher performance than convolutional neural networks. In the experiments, we show that text recognition accuracy for Korean text images can be improved when our proposed text image super-resolution method is used. We also propose a new Korean text image dataset for training our model, which contains massive HR-LR Korean text image pairs.

This study introduces a novel cascade fusion architecture aimed at enhancing thermal images across various scale conditions. The processing of thermal images at multiple scales has been challenging due to the limitations of existing methods that are designed for specific scales. To overcome these limitations, this paper proposes a unified framework that utilizes cascade feature fusion to effectively learn multi-scale representations. Confidence maps from different image scales are fused in a cascaded manner, enabling scale-invariant learning. The architecture comprises end-to-end trained convolutional neural networks to enhance image quality by reinforcing mutual scale dependencies. Experimental results indicate that the proposed technique outperforms existing methods in multi-scale thermal image enhancement. Performance evaluation results are provided, demonstrating consistent improvements in image quality metrics. The cascade fusion design facilitates robust generalization across scales and efficient learning of cross-scale representations.

Tomato crops are highly affected by tomato diseases, and if not prevented, a disease can cause severe losses for the agricultural economy. Therefore, there is a need for a system that quickly and accurately diagnoses various tomato diseases. In this paper, we propose a system that classifies nine diseases as well as healthy tomato plants by applying various pretrained deep learning-based CNN models trained on an ImageNet dataset. The tomato leaf image dataset obtained from PlantVillage is provided as input to ResNet, Xception, and DenseNet, which have deep learning-based CNN architectures. The proposed models were constructed by adding a top-level classifier to the basic CNN model, and they were trained by applying a 5-fold cross-validation strategy. All three of the proposed models were trained in two stages: transfer learning (which freezes the layers of the basic CNN model and then trains only the top-level classifiers), and fine-tuned learning (which sets the learning rate to a very small number and trains after unfreezing basic CNN layers). SGD, RMSprop, and Adam were applied as optimization algorithms. The experimental results show that the DenseNet CNN model to which the RMSprop algorithm was applied output the best results, with 98.63% accuracy.
