In this paper, we propose a new adaptive intrusion detection algorithm based on clustering: Kernel-ART, which is composed of the on-line clustering algorithm, ART (adaptive resonance theory), combining with mercer-kernel and concept vector. Kernel-ART is not only satisfying all desirable characteristics in the context of clustering-based IDS but also alleviating drawbacks associated with the supervised learning IDS. It is able to detect various types of intrusions in real-time by means of generating clusters incrementally.

ART (Adaptive Resonance Theory [1]) neural network and its variations perform non-hierarchical clustering by unsupervised learning. We propose a scheme "arboART" for hierarchical clustering by using several ART1.5-SSS networks. It classifies multidimensional vectors as a cluster tree, and finds features of clusters. The Basic idea of arboART is to use the prototype formed in an ART network as an input to other ART network that has looser distance criteria (Ishihara, et al., [2,3]). By sending prototype vectors made by ART to one after another, many small categories are combined into larger and more generalized categories. We can draw a dendrogram using classification records of sample and categories. We have confirmed its ability using standard test data commonly used in pattern recognition community. The clustering result is better than traditional computing methods, on separation of outliers, smaller error (diameter) of clusters and causes no chaining. This methodology is applied to Kansei evaluation experiment data analysis.

In a process of insect footprint recognition, basic footprint segments should be extracted from a whole insect footprint image in order to find out appropriate features for classification. In this paper, we used a clustering method as a preprocessing stage for extraction of basic insect footprint segments. In general, sizes and strides of footprints may be different according to type and sire of an insect for recognition. Therefore we proposed an improved ART2 algorithm for extraction or basic insect footprint segments regardless of size and stride or footprint pattern. In the proposed ART2 algorithm, threshold value for clustering is determined automatically using contour shape of the graph created by accumulating distances between all the spots of footprint pattern. In the experimental results applying the proposed method to two kinds of insect footprint patterns, we could see that all the clustering results were accomplished correctly.

Clustering plays an indispensable role for data analysis. Many clustering algorithms have been developed. However, most of them suffer poor performance of learning. To archive good clustering performance, we develop a hybrid neural network model. It is the combination of Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) and Adaptive Resonance Theory 2 (ART2). It inherits two distinct advantages of stability and plasticity from ART2. Meanwhile, by combining the merits of MLP, it improves the performance for clustering. Experiment results show that our model can be used for clustering with promising performance.

In an effort to improve speech recognition, we investigated the effect of the number of clusters. In usual LBG clustering, the number of codebook clusters is doubled on each bifurcation and hence cannot be chosen arbitrarily in a natural way. To have the number of clusters at our control, we combined adaptive resonance theory (ART2) with LBG and perform the clustering in two stages. The codebook thus formed was used in subsequent processing of fuzzy vector quantization (FVQ) and HMM for speech recognition tests. Compared to conventional LBG, our method was shown to reduce the best recognition error rate by 0${\sim$}0.9% depending on the vocabulary size. The result also showed that between 400 and 800 would be the optimal number of clusters in the limit of small and large vocabulary speech recognitions of isolated words, respectively.

This paper proposes content-based image retrieval system with fuzzy ART neural network algorithm. Retrieving large database of image data, the clustering is essential for fast retrieval. However, it is difficult to cluster huge image data pertinently, Because current retrieval methods using similarities have several problems like low accuracy of retrieving and long retrieval time, a solution is necessary to complement these problems. This paper presents a content-based image retrieval system with neural network in order to reinforce abovementioned problems. The retrieval system using fuzzy ART algorithm normalizes color and texture as feature values of input data between 0 and 1, and then it runs after clustering the input data. The implemental result with 300 image data shows retrieval accuracy of approximately 87%.

Art psychotherapy is widely accepted as an effective tool for diagnosis and treatment of psychological disorders. Important factors for art psychotherapy diagnosis, based on the projection theory that the world of the inner mind appears in drawings, include main color and imbalance of a drawing. This paper develops a system for a machine to determine the main color and the imbalance of a drawing by color recognition and edge detection. Our proposed color recognition procedure adopts NBS(National Bureau of Standards) distance between colors in HVC(Hue, Value, Chroma) color space which is most similar to the human eye's color perception. Our edge detection procedure applies blurring, clustering and transformation to a standard color in a series. Our system considers the numbers of pixels and clusters for each color as a criterion for main color and the frequency of edge coordinates for each region for imbalance. The proposed machine procedure, verified through case studies, can help overcome the subjectivity, ambiguity and uncertainty in human decision involved in art psychotherapy.

For young children who are not spontaneous or not accurate in verbal communication of their emotions and experiences, drawing is a good means of expressing their status in mind and thus drawing analysis with chromatics is a traditional tool for art therapy. Recently, children enjoy digital drawing via painting tools thus there is a growing needs to develop an automatic digital drawing analysis tool based on chromatics and art therapy theory. In this paper, we propose such an analyzing tool based on dominant color analysis. Technically, we use ART2 clustering and fuzzy logic to understand the fuzziness of subjects' status of mind expressed in their digital drawings. The frequency of color usage is fuzzified with respect to the membership functions. After applying fuzzy logic to this fuzzified central vector, we determine the dominant color and supporting colors from the digital drawings and children's status of mind is then analyzed according to the color-personality relationships based on Alschuler and Hattwick's historical researches.

In this paper, we have proposed a self disease diagnosis system for ordinary persons to help the decision of access methods to a specialized medical management, and for medical specialities to discover new diseases and their symptoms easily, using verification of an individual#s health status by a series of processes performed by oneself. In the proposed self disease diagnosis system, illness is decided by 60 kinds of diseases selected using the report called #Diseases that Koreans take seriously# published by Ministry of Health & Welfare and medical contents called #Engel Pharm#, and also using 161 representative symptoms for the 60 kinds of diseases. An individual#s health information is extracted by diagnosis of one#s health status by a clustering of the 60 kinds of diseases using enhanced ART2 algorithm and input vectors from the results of questions for symptoms of each disease.

This paper presents a method for moving objects detection, analysis and expression how much move as numerical value from the image which is captured by a network camera. To perform this method, we process few kinds of pre-processing to remove noise that are getting background image, difference image, binarization and so on. And to consider perspective effect, we propose modified ART2 algorithm. Finally, we express the result of ATR2 clustering as numerical value. This method is robust to size of object which is changed by perspective effect.
