In anatomical aspects, magnetic resonance image offers more accurate information than other medical images such as X ray, ultrasonic and CT images. This paper introduces a method that segments and detects lesion for 2 dimensional axial MR brain images automatically. Image segmentation process consists of 2 stages. First stage extracts cerebrum region using thresholding and morphology. In the second stage, white matter, gray matter and cerebrospinal fluid in the cerebrum are extracted using FCM, We could improve processing time as removing uninterested region. Finally symmetry measure and anatomical Knowledge are used to detect lesion.

Since self-organizing map (SOM) preserves the topology of ordering in input spaces and trains itself by unsupervised algorithm, it is Llsed in many areas. However, SOM has a shortcoming: structure cannot be easily detcrmined without many trials-and-errors. Structure-adaptive self-orgnizing map (SASOM) which can adapt its structure as well as its weights overcome the shortcoming of self-organizing map: SASOM makes use of structure adaptation capability to place the nodes of prototype vectors into the pattern space accurately so as to make the decision boundmies as close to the class boundaries as possible. In this scheme, the initialization of weights of newly adapted nodes is important. This paper proposes a method which optimizes SASOM with genetic algorithm (GA) to determines the weight vector of newly split node. The leanling algorithm is a hybrid of unsupervised learning method and supervised learning method using LVQ algorithm. This proposed method not only shows higher performance than SASOM in terms of recognition rate and variation, but also preserves the topological order of input patterns well. Experiments with 2D pattern space data and handwritten digit database show that the proposed method is promising.

According as many people use a computer newly, damage of computer virus and hacking is rapidly increasing by the crucial users. To block hacking that is intrusion of a person's computer and the computer virus that destroys data, a study for intrusion-detection of system and virus detection using a biological immune system is in progress. In this paper, we make a model of positive selection and negative selection of self-recognition process that is ability of T-cytotoxic cell that plays an important part in biological immune system. So we embody a self-nonself distinction algorithm in computer. To prove the efficacy of self-recognition algorithm, we use simulations by a cell change and a string change of self file.

Fingerprints have been widely used in the biometric authentication because of its performance, uniqueness and universality. Recently, the speed of identification becomes a very important point in the fingerprint-based security applications. Also, the reliability still remains the main issue in the fingerprint identification. In this paper, we propose the fast and reliable fingerprint matching algorithm based on the process of the 'self-nonself' discrimination in the biological immune system. The proposed algorithm is organized by two-matching stage. The 1st matching stage does the matching process by the use of the 'self-space' and MHC detector string set that are generated from the minutiae and the values of the directional field. Then the 2nd matching stage is made based on the local-structure of the minutiae. The proposed two matching stage reduces matching time while the reliability of the matching algorithm is maintained.

본 논문에서는 패턴 매칭 방법에 근거하여 인식 단위가 음소인 음소 기반 인식 시스템을 구성하였다. 선택한 신경망 구조는 생물학적 신경망인 코호넨(T. Kohonen)의 SOFM(Self-Organizing Feature Map)으로 패턴 매칭 과정 중 cluster로 사용하였다. SOFM 신경망은 신호 공간에 대해서 최적의 국소(局所) 해부적 사사에 의한 자기 조직화 과정을 수행하며, 그 결과 인식 문제에 있어서 상당히 높은 정확도를 나타낸다. 따라서 SOFM 신경망은 음소 인식에도 효과적으로 응용될 수 있다. 또한 음소 인식 시스템의 성능 향상을 위해 K-means 클러스터링 알고리즘이 결합된 학습 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 음소 인식 시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위해, 먼저, 우리말 음소들을 모음, 파열음, 마찰음, 파찰음, 유음 및 비음, 종성의 6개 음소군으로 분류하고 각 음소군에 대한 특징 지도를 구성하여 labeler의 기능을 수행하게 하였다. 화자 종속 인식실험 결과 87.2%의 인식률을 보였으며 제안한 학습법의 빠른 수렴성과 인식률 향상을 확인하였다.

A new speech recognition model, DLSMM(Dynamically Localized Self-organizing Map Model) and its effective training algorithm are proposed in this paper. In DLSMM, temporal and spatial distortions of speech are efficiently normalized by dynamic programming technique and localized self-organizing maps, respectively. Experiments on Korean digits recognition have been carried out. DLSMM has smaller Experiments on Korean digits recognition have been carried out. DLSMM has smaller connections than predictive neural network models, but it has scored a little high recognition rate.

In this paper, a method that apply LP algorithm to image for speech recognition is suggested, using both speech and image information for recogniton of korean numeral speech. The input speech signal is pre-emphasized with parameter value 0.95, analyzed for B th LP coefficients using Hamming window, autocorrelation and Levinson-Durbin algorithm. Also, a gray image signal is analyzed for 2-dimensional LP coefficients using autocorrelation and Levinson-Durbin algorithm like speech. These parameters are used for input parameters of neural network using back-propagation algorithm. The recognition experiment was carried out at each noise level, three numeral speechs, '3','5', and '9' were enhanced. Thus, in case of recognizing speech with 2-dimensional LP parameters, it results in a high recognition rate, a low parameter size, and a simple algorithm with no additional feature extraction algorithm.

In the paper we propose and implement a new indoor localization system where the techniques of magnetic field based fingerprinting and pedestrian dead reckoning are combined. First, we determine a target's location by comparing acquired magnetic field values with a magnetic field map containing pre-collected field values at different locations and choosing the location having the closest value. As the target moves, we use pedestrian dead reckoning to estimate the expected moving path, reducing the maximum positioning error of the initial location. The system eliminates the problem of localization error accumulation in pedestrian dead reckoning with the help of the fingerprinting and does not require Wi-Fi AP infrastructure, enabling cost-effective localization solution.
