This paper proposes a new frame synchronization technique based on convolutional neural network (CNN). The conventional frame synchronizers usually find the matching instance through correlation between the received signal and the preamble. The proposed method converts the 1-dimensional correlator ouput into a 2-dimensional matrix. The 2-dimensional matrix is input to a convolutional neural network, and the convolutional neural network finds the frame arrival time. Specifically, in additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) environments, the received signals are generated with random arrival times and they are used for training data of the CNN. Through computer simulation, the false detection probabilities in various signal-to-noise ratios are investigated and compared between the proposed CNN-based technique and the conventional one. According to the results, the proposed technique shows 2dB better performance than the conventional method.

The paper proposes a distance estimation technique for ultra-wideband (UWB) systems using convolutional neural network (CNN). To estimate the distance from the transmitter and the receiver in the proposed method, 1 dimensional vector consisted of the magnitudes of the received samples is reshaped into a 2 dimensional matrix, and by using this matrix, the distance is estimated through the CNN regressor. The received signal for CNN training is generated by the UWB channel model in the IEEE 802.15.4a, and the CNN model is trained. Next, the received signal for CNN test is generated by filed experiments in indoor environments, and the distance estimation performance is verified. The proposed technique is also compared with the existing threshold based method. According to the results, the proposed CNN based technique is superior to the conventional method and specifically, the proposed method shows 0.6 m root mean square error (RMSE) at distance 10 m while the conventional technique shows much worse 1.6 m RMSE.

Traditional pose estimation methods include using special devices or images through image processing. The disadvantage of using a device is that the environment in which the device can be used is limited and costly. The use of cameras and image processing has the advantage of reducing environmental constraints and costs, but the performance is lower. CNN(Convolutional Neural Networks) were studied for pose estimation just using only camera without these disadvantage. Various techniques were proposed to increase cognitive performance. In this paper, the effect of the skip connection on the network was experimented by using various skip connections on the joint recognition of the hand. Experiments have confirmed that the presence of additional skip connections other than the basic skip connections has a better effect on performance, but the network with downward skip connections is the best performance.

본 논문에서는 삼각형 구조로 구성된 3차원 메쉬(Mesh)에서 합성곱 신경망(Convolution Neural Network, CNN)을 응용하여 정확도가 높은 새로운 학습 표현 기법을 제시한다. 우리는 메쉬를 구성하고 있는 폴리곤의 edge와 face의 로컬 특징을 기반으로 학습을 진행한다. 일반적으로 딥러닝은 인공신경망을 수많은 계층 형태로 연결한 기법을 말하며, 주요 처리 대상은 1, 2차원 데이터 형태인 오디오 파일과 이미지였다. 인공지능에 대한 연구가 지속되면서 3차원 딥러닝이 도입되었지만, 기존의 학습과는 달리 3차원 딥러닝은 데이터의 확보가 쉽지 않다. 혼합현실과 메타버스 시장의 확대로 인해 3차원 모델링 시장이 증가하고, 기술의 발전으로 데이터를 획득할 수 있는 방법이 생겼지만, 3차원 데이터를 직접적으로 학습에 이용하는 방식으로 적용하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 그렇게 때문에 본 논문에서는 산업 현장에서 이용되는 데이터인 메쉬 구조를 폴리곤의 최소 단위인 삼각형 형태로 구성하여 학습 데이터를 구성해 기존의 방법보다 정확도가 높은 학습 기법을 제안한다.

This paper proposes a new convolutional neural network (CNN) based spectrum sensing technique for cognitive radio communications. The proposed technique determines the existence of the primary user (PU) by using energy detection without any prior knowledge of the PU's signal. In the proposed method, the received signal is high-rate sampled to sense the entire spectrum bands of interest. After that, fast Fourier transform (FFT) of the signal converts the time domain signal to frequency domain spectrum and by stacking those consecutive spectrums, a 2 dimensional signal is made. The 2 dimensional signal is cut by the sensing channel bandwidth and inputted to the CNN. The CNN determines the existence of the primary user. Since there are only two states (existence or non-existence), binary classification CNN is used. The performance of the proposed method is examined through computer simulation and indoor experiment. According to the results, the proposed method outperforms the conventional threshold-based method by over 2 dB.

In this paper, we propose a system which estimates Manhattan coordinate systems for urban scene images using a convolutional neural network (CNN). Estimating the Manhattan coordinate system from an image under the Manhattan world assumption is the basis for solving computer graphics and vision problems such as image adjustment and 3D scene reconstruction. We construct a CNN that estimates Manhattan coordinate systems based on GoogLeNet [1]. To train the CNN, we collect about 155,000 images under the Manhattan world assumption by using the Google Street View APIs and calculate Manhattan coordinate systems using existing calibration methods to generate dataset. In contrast to PoseNet [2] that trains per-scene CNNs, our method learns from images under the Manhattan world assumption and thus estimates Manhattan coordinate systems for new images that have not been learned. Experimental results show that our method estimates Manhattan coordinate systems with the median error of $3.157^{\circ}$ for the Google Street View images of non-trained scenes, as test set. In addition, compared to an existing calibration method [3], the proposed method shows lower intermediate errors for the test set.

Amid the recent rapid trend change, the change in design has a great impact on the sales of fashion companies, so it is inevitable to be careful in choosing new designs. With the recent development of the artificial intelligence field, various machine learning is being used a lot in the fashion market to increase consumers' preferences. To contribute to increasing reliability in the development of new products by quantifying abstract concepts such as preferences, we generate new images that do not exist through three adversarial generative neural networks (GANs) and numerically compare abstract concepts of preferences using pre-trained convolution neural networks (CNNs). Deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (DCGAN), Progressive growing adversarial networks (PGGAN), and Dual Discriminator generative adversarial networks (DANs), which were trained to produce comparative, high-level, and high-level images. The degree of similarity measured was considered as a preference, and the experimental results showed that D2GAN showed a relatively high similarity compared to DCGAN and PGGAN.

This paper proposes a new Recurrent neural network (RNN) based spectrum sensing technique for cognitive radio communications. The proposed technique determines the existence of primary user's signal without any prior information of the primary users. The method performs high-speed sampling by considering the whole sensing bandwidth and then converts the signal into frequency spectrum via fast Fourier transform (FFT). This spectrum signal is cut in sensing channel bandwidth and entered into the RNN to determine the channel vacancy. The performance of the proposed technique is verified through computer simulations. According to the results, the proposed one is superior to more than 2 [dB] than the existing threshold-based technique and has similar performance to that of the existing Convolutional neural network (CNN) based method. In addition, experiments are carried out in indoor environments and the results show that the proposed technique performs more than 4 [dB] better than both the conventional threshold-based and the CNN based methods.

The serial arc is one of factors causing electrical fires. Over past decades, various researches have been carried out to detect arc occurrences. Even though frequency analysis, wavelet, and statistical features have been used, additional steps such as transformation and feature extraction are required. On the contrary, deep learning models directly use the raw data without any feature extraction processes. Therefore, the usage of time-domain data is preferred, but the performance is not satisfactory. To solve this problem, subsequent 1-D signals are transformed into 2-D data that can feed into a convolutional neural network (CNN). Experiments validated that CNN model outperforms deep neural network (DNN) by the classification accuracy of 8.6%. In addition, data augmentation is utilized, resulting in the accuracy improvement by 14%.

In this study, we tried to improve the performance of the existing U-net-based deep learning rainfall prediction model, which can weaken the meaning of time series order. For this, ConvLSTM2D U-Net structure model considering temporal consistency of data was applied, and we evaluated accuracy of the ConvLSTM2D U-Net model using a RainNet model and an extrapolation-based advection model. In addition, we tried to improve the uncertainty in the model training process by performing learning not only with a single model but also with 10 ensemble models. The trained neural network rainfall prediction model was optimized to generate 10-minute advance prediction data using four consecutive data of the past 30 minutes from the present. The results of deep learning rainfall prediction models are difficult to identify schematically distinct differences, but with ConvLSTM2D U-Net, the magnitude of the prediction error is the smallest and the location of rainfall is relatively accurate. In particular, the ensemble ConvLSTM2D U-Net showed high CSI, low MAE, and a narrow error range, and predicted rainfall more accurately and stable prediction performance than other models. However, the prediction performance for a specific point was very low compared to the prediction performance for the entire area, and the deep learning rainfall prediction model also had limitations. Through this study, it was confirmed that the ConvLSTM2D U-Net neural network structure to account for the change of time could increase the prediction accuracy, but there is still a limitation of the convolution deep neural network model due to spatial smoothing in the strong rainfall region or detailed rainfall prediction.
