Purpose Generative Adversarial Network(GAN) is one of deep learning technologies. This is a way to create a real fake image after learning the real image. In this study, after acquiring artificial intelligence images through GAN, We were compared and evaluated with real scan time images. We want to see if these technologies are potentially useful. Materials and Methods 30 patients who underwent ¹⁸F-FDG Brain PET/CT scanning at Severance Hospital, were acquired in 15-minute List mode and reconstructed into 1,2,3,4,5 and 15minute images, respectively. 25 out of 30 patients were used as learning images for learning of GAN and 5 patients used as verification images for confirming the learning model. The program was implemented using the Python and Tensorflow frameworks. After learning using the Pix2Pix model of GAN technology, this learning model generated artificial intelligence images. The artificial intelligence image generated in this way were evaluated as Mean Square Error(MSE), Peak Signal to Noise Ratio(PSNR), and Structural Similarity Index(SSIM) with real scan time image. Results The trained model was evaluated with the verification image. As a result, The 15-minute image created by the 5-minute image rather than 1-minute after the start of the scan showed a smaller MSE, and the PSNR and SSIM increased. Conclusion Through this study, it was confirmed that AI imaging technology is applicable. In the future, if these artificial intelligence imaging technologies are applied to nuclear medicine imaging, it will be possible to acquire images even with a short scan time, which can be expected to reduce artifacts caused by patient movement and increase the efficiency of the scanning room.

Recently, artificial intelligence parking control systems have increased the recognition rate of vehicle license plates using deep learning, but there is a problem that they cannot determine vehicles with fake license plates. Despite these security problems, several institutions have been using the existing system so far. For example, in an experiment using a counterfeit license plate, there are cases of successful entry into major government agencies. This paper proposes an improved system over the existing artificial intelligence parking control system to prevent vehicles with such fake license plates from entering. The proposed method is to use the degree of matching of the front feature points of the vehicle as a passing criterion using the ORB algorithm that extracts information on feature points characterized by an image, just as the existing system uses the matching of vehicle license plates as a passing criterion. In addition, a procedure for checking whether a vehicle exists inside was included in the proposed system to prevent the entry of the same type of vehicle with a fake license plate. As a result of the experiment, it showed the improved performance in identifying vehicles with fake license plates compared to the existing system. These results confirmed that the methods proposed in this paper could be applied to the existing parking control system while taking the flow of the original artificial intelligence parking control system to prevent vehicles with fake license plates from entering.

In this paper, we present the Korean menu-ordering Sentence Text-to-Speech (TTS) system using conformer-based FastSpeech2. Conformer is the convolution-augmented transformer, which was originally proposed in Speech Recognition. Combining two different structures, the Conformer extracts better local and global features. It comprises two half Feed Forward module at the front and the end, sandwiching the Multi-Head Self-Attention module and Convolution module. We introduce the Conformer in Korean TTS, as we know it works well in Korean Speech Recognition. For comparison between transformer-based TTS model and Conformer-based one, we train FastSpeech2 and Conformer-based FastSpeech2. We collected a phoneme-balanced data set and used this for training our models. This corpus comprises not only general conversation, but also menu-ordering conversation consisting mainly of loanwords. This data set is the solution to the current Korean TTS model's degradation in loanwords. As a result of generating a synthesized sound using ParallelWave Gan, the Conformer-based FastSpeech2 achieved superior performance of MOS 4.04. We confirm that the model performance improved when the same structure was changed from transformer to Conformer in the Korean TTS.

The rapid development of information technology is also bringing about many changes in the medical environment. In particular, it is leading the rapid change of medical image information systems using big data and artificial intelligence (AI). The prescription delivery system (OCS), which consists of an electronic medical record (EMR) and a medical image storage and transmission system (PACS), has rapidly changed the medical environment from analog to digital. When combined with multiple solutions, PACS represents a new direction for advancement in security, interoperability, efficiency and automation. Among them, the combination with artificial intelligence (AI) using big data that can improve the quality of images is actively progressing. In particular, AI PACS, a system that can assist in reading medical images using deep learning technology, was developed in cooperation with universities and industries and is being used in hospitals. As such, in line with the rapid changes in the medical image information system in the medical environment, structural changes in the medical market and changes in medical policies to cope with them are also necessary. On the other hand, medical image information is based on a digital medical image transmission device (DICOM) format method, and is divided into a tomographic volume image, a volume image, and a cross-sectional image, a two-dimensional image, according to a generation method. In addition, recently, many medical institutions are rushing to introduce the next-generation integrated medical information system by promoting smart hospital services. The next-generation integrated medical information system is built as a solution that integrates EMR, electronic consent, big data, AI, precision medicine, and interworking with external institutions. It aims to realize research. Korea's medical image information system is at a world-class level thanks to advanced IT technology and government policies. In particular, the PACS solution is the only field exporting medical information technology to the world. In this study, along with the analysis of the medical image information system using big data, the current trend was grasped based on the historical background of the introduction of the medical image information system in Korea, and the future development direction was predicted. In the future, based on DICOM big data accumulated over 20 years, we plan to conduct research that can increase the image read rate by using AI and deep learning algorithms.

Rehabilitators perform outpatient treatment and daily rehabilitation exercises to recover physical function with the aim of quickly returning to society after surgical treatment. Unlike performing exercises in a hospital with the help of a professional therapist, there are many difficulties in performing rehabilitation exercises by the patient on a daily basis. In this paper, we propose a CNN-LSTM-based upper limb rehabilitation real-time monitoring system so that patients can perform rehabilitation efficiently and with correct posture on a daily basis. The proposed system measures biological signals through shoulder-mounted hardware equipped with EMG and IMU, performs preprocessing and normalization for learning, and uses them as a learning dataset. The implemented model consists of three polling layers of three synthetic stacks for feature detection and two LSTM layers for classification, and we were able to confirm a learning result of 97.44% on the validation data. After that, we conducted a comparative evaluation with the Teachable machine, and as a result of the comparative evaluation, we confirmed that the model was implemented at 93.6% and the Teachable machine at 94.4%, and both models showed similar classification performance.

The die-casting process is an important process for various industries, but there are limitations in the profitability and productivity of related companies due to the high defect rate. In order to overcome this, this study has developed die-casting fault detection modules based on industrial AI technologies. The developed module is constructed from three-stage models depending on the characteristics of the dataset. The first-stage model conducts fault detection based on supervised learning from the dataset without labels. The second-stage model realizes one-class classification based on semi-supervised learning, where the dataset only has production success labels. The third-stage model corresponds to fault detection based on supervised learning, where the dataset includes a small amount of production failure cases. The developed fault detection module exhibited outstanding performance with roughly 96% accuracy for actual process data.

Due to the increase in energy consumption, and eco-friendly policies, there is a need for efficient energy consumption in buildings. Anomaly power detection based on deep learning are being used. Because of the difficulty in collecting anomaly data, anomaly detection is performed using reconstruction error with a Recurrent Neural Network(RNN) based autoencoder. However, there are some limitations such as the long time required to fully learn temporal features and its sensitivity to noise in the train data. To overcome these limitations, this paper proposes the TCN-USAD, combined with Temporal Convolution Network(TCN) and UnSupervised Anomaly Detection for multivariate data(USAD). The proposed model using TCN-based autoencoder and the USAD structure, which uses two decoders and adversarial training, to quickly learn temporal features and enable robust anomaly detection. To validate the performance of TCN-USAD, comparative experiments were performed using two building energy datasets. The results showed that the TCN-based autoencoder can perform faster and better reconstruction than RNN-based autoencoder. Furthermore, TCN-USAD achieved 20% improved F1-Score over other anomaly detection models, demonstrating excellent anomaly detection performance.

With the recent World Health Organization (WHO) Declaration of Pandemic for Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19), COVID-19 is a global concern and many deaths continue. To overcome this, there is an increasing need for sharing information between countries and countermeasures related to COVID-19. However, due to linguistic boundaries, smooth exchange and sharing of information has not been achieved. In this paper, we propose a Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model specialized for the COVID-19 domain. Centering on English, a Transformer based bidirectional model was produced for French, Spanish, German, Italian, Russian, and Chinese. Based on the BLEU score, the experimental results showed significant high performance in all language pairs compared to the commercialization system.

AI-based speed prediction studies have been conducted quite actively. However, while the importance of explainable AI is emerging, the study of interpreting and reasoning the AI-based speed predictions has not been carried out much. Therefore, in this paper, 'Explainable Deep Graph Neural Network (GNN)' is devised to analyze the speed prediction and assess the nearby road influence for reasoning the critical contributions to a given road situation. The model's output was explained by comparing the differences in output before and after masking the input values of the GNN model. Using TOPIS traffic speed data, we applied our GNN models for the major congested roads in Seoul. We verified our approach through a traffic flow simulation by adjusting the most influential nearby roads' speed and observing the congestion's relief on the road of interest accordingly. This is meaningful in that our approach can be applied to the transportation network and traffic flow can be improved by controlling specific nearby roads based on the inference results.
