Extraction of texts from images is a fundamental and important problem to understand the images. This paper suggests a text region verification method by statistical means of stroke features of the characters. The method extracts 36 dimensional features from $16\times16$sized text and non-text images using wavelet transform - these 36 dimensional features express stroke and direction of characters - and select 12 sub-features out of 36 dimensional features which yield adequate separation between classes. After selecting the features, SVM trains the selected features. For the verification of the text region, each $16\times16$image block is scanned and classified as text or non-text. Then, the text region is finally decided as text region or non-text region. The proposed method is able to verify text regions which can hardly be distin guished.

In this paper, we propose a novel fingerprint classification method to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of the fingerprint identification system, one of biometrics systems. According to the previous researches, fingerprints can be categorized into the several patterns based on their pattern of ridges and valleys. After construction of fingerprint database based on their patters, fingerprint classification approach can help to accelerate the fingerprint recognition. The reason is that classification methods reduce the size of the search space to the fingerprints of the same category before matching. First, we suggest a method to extract region of interest (ROI) which have real information about fingerprint from the image. And then we propose a feature extraction method which combines gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) and wavelet features. Finally, we compare the performance of our proposed method with the existing method which use only GLCM as the feature of fingerprint by using the multi-layer perceptron and support vector machine.

In this paper, we propose a classification algorithm based on the obtained EEG(Electroencephalogram) signal for the control of 'left' and 'right' turnings of which a driving system composed of EEG sensor, Labview, DAQ, Matlab and driving robot. The proposed algorithm uses features extracted from frequency band information obtained by DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform) and selects features of high discrimination by using Fisher score. We, also propose the number of feature vectors for the best classification performance by using SVM(Support Vector Machine) classifier and propose a decision pending algorithm based on MLD (Maximum Likelihood Decision) to prevent malfunction due to misclassification. The selected four feature vectors for the proposed algorithm are the mean of absolute value of voltage and the standard deviation of d5(2-4Hz) and d2(16-32Hz) frequency bands of P8 channel according to the international standard electrode placement method. By using the SVM classifier, we obtained 98.75% accuracy and 1.25% error rate. Also, when we specify error probability of 70% for decision pending, we obtained 95.63% accuracy and 0% error rate by using the proposed decision pending algorithm.

Eigenvoice method is known to be adequate for fast speaker adaptation, but it hardly shows additional improvement with increased amount of adaptation data. In this paper, to deal with this problem, we propose a modified method estimating the weights of eigenvoices in each feature vector dimension. We also propose an adaptation mode selection scheme that one method with higher performance among several adaptation methods is selected according to the amount of adaptation data. We used POW DB to construct the speaker independent model and eigenvoices, and utterances(ranging from 1 to 50) from PBW 452 DB and the remaining 400 utterances were used for adaptation and evaluation, respectively. With the increased amount of adaptation data, proposed dimensional eigenvoice method showed higher performance than both conventional eigenvoice method and MLLR. Up to 26% of word error rate was reduced by the adaptation mode selection between eigenvoice and dimensional eigenvoice methods in comparison with conventional eigenvoice method.

A new approach is proposed for restoration of corrupted regions and segmentation in natural text images. The challenge is to fill in the corrupted regions on the basis of color feature analysis by second order symmetric stick tensor. It is show how feature analysis can benefit from analyzing features using tensor voting with chromatic and achromatic components. The proposed method is applied to text images corrupted by manifold types of various noises. Firstly, we decompose an image into chromatic and achromatic components to analyze images. Secondly, selected feature vectors are analyzed by second-order symmetric stick tensor. And tensors are redefined by voting information with neighbor voters, while restore the corrupted regions. Lastly, mode estimation and segmentation are performed by adaptive mean shift and separated clustering method respectively. This approach is automatically done, thereby allowing to easily fill-in corrupted regions containing completely different structures and surrounding backgrounds. Applications of proposed method include the restoration of damaged text images; removal of superimposed noises or streaks. We so can see that proposed approach is efficient and robust in terms of restoring and segmenting text images corrupted.

Today's scientists try to remove heavy metals with many new technologies such as phytoremediation. One of the best cutting edge technologies is developing transgenic plants to remove certain heavy metal in soil. I constructed the transformation vector expressing T. goesingense Metal Transport Protein1 gene and TgMTP1: GFP genes. The transgenic plants were selected and confirmed the transformed genes into Arabidopsis thaliana genome. Expression was confirmed in several parts in Arabidopsis cells, tissues and organs. When TgMTP1 overexpressing Arabidopsis thaliana were subjected, transgenic plants showed higher heavy metal tolerance than non-transgenic. For further study I selected the transgenic plant lines with enhanced tolerance against four different heavy metals; Zn, Ni, Co, Cd. The accumulation of these metals in these plants was further analyzed. The TgMTP1 overexpressing Arabidopsis thaliana plant of selected lines are resistant against heavy metals. This plant is characterized by the expression of the MTP1 gene accumulating heavy metal in the vacuole and being simultaneously expressed on the plasma membrane. In conclusion, these plants may be used in plant purification applications, and as a plant with increased tolerance.

Studies on predicting arrhythmia using machine learning have been actively conducted with increasing number of arrhythmia patients. Existing studies have predicted arrhythmia based on multivariate data of feature variables extracted from RR interval data at a specific time point. In this study, we consider that the pattern of the heart state changes with time can be important information for the arrhythmia prediction. Therefore, we investigate the usefulness of predicting the arrhythmia with multivariate time series data obtained by extracting and accumulating the multivariate vectors of the feature variables at various time points. When considering 1-nearest neighbor classification method and its ensemble for comparison, it is confirmed that the multivariate time series data based method can have better classification performance than the multivariate data based method if we select an appropriate time series distance function.

This paper is related to a new technology allowing a user to have a 360 degree viewpoint of the virtual wearing object, and to an object VR(Virtual Reality)-based 2D virtual textile wearing system using viewpoint vector estimation and textile texture mapping. The proposed system is characterized as capable of virtually wearing a new textile pattern selected by the user to the clothing shape section segmented from multiview 2D images of clothes model for object VR, and three-dimensionally viewing its virtual wearing appearance at a 360 degree viewpoint of the object. Regardless of color or intensity of model clothes, the proposed system is possible to virtually change the textile pattern with holding the illumination and shading properties of the selected clothing shape section, and also to quickly and easily simulate, compare, and select multiple textile pattern combinations for individual styles or entire outfits. The proposed system can provide higher practicality and easy-to-use interface, as it makes real-time processing possible in various digital environment, and creates comparatively natural and realistic virtual wearing styles, and also makes semi -automatic processing possible to reduce the manual works to a minimum. According to the proposed system, it can motivate the creative activity of the designers with simulation results on the effect of textile pattern design on the appearance of clothes without manufacturing physical clothes and, as it can help the purchasers for decision-making with them, promote B2B or B2C e-commerce.

A multiview sequence CODEC with view scaiability is proposed in this paper. We define a GGOP (Group of GOP) structure as a basic coding unit to efficiently code multiview sequences. 7he proposed CODEC provides flexible GGOP structures based on the number of views and baseline distances among cameras. Multiview sequences encode consists of disparity estimation/compensation, motion estimation/compensation, residual coding and rate control and generates multiview sequence bitstream. The main bitstream is the same as an MPEG-2 mono-sequence bitstream for MPEG-2 compatibility. The auxiliary bitstream contains information concerning the remaining multiview sequences except for the reference sequences. The proposed CODEC with view scalability provides that a number of view flints are selectively determined at the receiver according to the type of display modes. The proposed multiview sequence CODEC is tested with several multiview sequences to determine its flexibility. compatibility with MPEG-2 and view scaiability. In addition, we subjectively confirm that the decoded bitstreams with view scaiability can be Properly displayed by several types of display modes. including 3D monitors.
