Navigation in outdoor environments is a fundamental and challenging problem for unmanned ground vehicles. Detecting lane markings or boundaries on the road may be one of the solutions to make navigation easy. However, because of various environments and road conditions, a robust lane detection is difficult. In this paper, we propose a new approach for estimating virtual lanes on a traversable region. Estimating the virtual lanes consist of two steps: (i) we detect virtual road region through road model selection based on traversability at current frame and similarity between the interframe and (ii) we estimate virtual lane using the number of lane on the road and results of previous frame. To improve the detection performance and reduce the searching region of interests, we use a probability map representing the traversability of the outdoor terrain. In addition, by considering both current and previous frame simultaneously, the proposed method estimate more stable virtual lanes. We evaluate the performance of the proposed approach using real data in outdoor environments.

수치지도는 지형도 제작뿐만 아니라 지리정보체계 구축 및 활용, 토목설계 및 시공, 국토계획 등 다양한 분야의 기본이 되는 중요한 디지틸 지리정보이다. 따라서 정확도가 높은 수치지도의 제작은 지킥정보체계의 활용성을 높이고 디지틸국토를 완성하기 위한 필요조건이다. 본 연구는 수치지도 Ver2.0 제작 시 정위치 편집과 구조화 편집 이후에 이루어지는 검수 공정을 자동화시컥 전수 검수가 가능하도록 하여 오류가 최소화된 수치지도가 생산될 수 있도록 했으며, 이 때 오류를 자동으로 인식하고 탐색하여 유형별로 분류한 뒤 해결방법까지 제시하는 자동 오류검출 방법을 적용시켜 기존 기술에 비해 정확성, 효율성과 경제성을 높였다.

We present a simple and effective method of face and facial feature detection under pose variation of user face in complex background for the human-robot interaction. Our approach is a flexible method that can be performed in both color and gray facial image and is also feasible for detecting facial features in quasi real-time. Based on the characteristics of the intensity of neighborhood area of facial features, new directional template for facial feature is defined. From applying this template to input facial image, novel edge-like blob map (EBM) with multiple intensity strengths is constructed. Regardless of color information of input image, using this map and conditions for facial characteristics, we show that the locations of face and its features - i.e., two eyes and a mouth-can be successfully estimated. Without the information of facial area boundary, final candidate face region is determined by both obtained locations of facial features and weighted correlation values with standard facial templates. Experimental results from many color images and well-known gray level face database images authorize the usefulness of proposed algorithm.

Paratuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) has extended latent periods of infection. Due to this property, difficulties in the detection of fecal shedder have been raised. A newly designed method for DNA extraction from fecal specimens, mGITC/SC was evaluated in terms of diagnostic efficiency. The detection limit of IS900 real-time PCR was about 50 MAP (1.5 cfu) in 250 mg of feces (6 cfu per g). Also, this DNA extraction method was faster and cheaper than that using commercial kit or other methods. Consequently, the mGITC/SC is an economical DNA extraction method that could be a useful tool for detecting MAP from fecal specimens.

This paper proposes a detection algorithm for view reversal in a stereoscopic video using a disparity map and motion vector field. We obtain the disparity map of a stereo image was obtained using a specific stereo matching algorithm and classify the image into the foreground and background. Next, the motion vector field of the image on a block basis was produced using a full search algorithm. Finally, the stereo image was considered to be reversed when the foreground moved toward the background and the covered region was in the foreground. The proposed algorithm achieved a good detection rate when the background was covered sufficiently by its moving foreground.

Novelty detection involves identifying novel patterns. They are not usually available during training. Even if they are, the data quantity imbalance leads to a low classification accuracy when a supervised learning scheme is employed. Thus, an unsupervised learning scheme is often employed ignoring those few novel patterns. In this paper, we propose two ways to make use of the few available novel patterns. First, a scheme to determine local thresholds for the Self Organizing Map boundary is proposed. Second, a modification of the Learning Vector Quantization learning rule is proposed so that allows one to keep codebook vectors as far from novel patterns as possible. Experimental results are quite promising.

In this paper, we propose a novel approach to statistical model-based voice activity detection (VAD) that incorporates a second-order conditional maximum a posteriori (CMAP) criterion. As a technical improvement for the first-order CMAP criterion in [1], we consider both the current observation and the voice activity decision in the previous two frames to take full consideration of the interframe correlation of voice activity. This is clearly different from the previous approach [1] in that we employ the voice activity decisions in the second-order (previous two frames) CMAP, which has quadruple thresholds with an additional degree of freedom, rather than the first-order (previous single frame). Also, a soft-decision scheme is incorporated, resulting in time-varying thresholds for further performance improvement. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the conventional CMAP-based VAD technique under various experimental conditions.

실시간 인체 검출에 대한 관심이 높아짐에 따라 피부색을 통한 인체 검출에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 하지만 대다수 기존 피부 탐지 방법은 정적인 피부색 모델을 이용하기 때문에 색왜곡이 발생한 영상에서 낮은 탐지율을 보인다. 이에 본 논문에서는 경사도 맵과 채도의 특징, K-평균 클러스터링 알고리즘을 이용하여 피부영역을 탐지하는 기법을 제시한다. 제안하는 방법의 기본적인 절차는 경사도 맵 생성, 피부영역에서 발견되는 경사도 특징의 추출, 피부의 채도 특징을 이용한 잡음 제거, 추출된 영역의 색상정보 군집화 수행, 클러스터 정보를 이용한 피부영역 탐지, 결과 검증 순이다. 이방법은 색상 이외의 특징을 이용하여 조명, 인종, 나이, 개인차 등에 상관없이 강건하게 피부를 탐지하는 것에 중점을 두고 있다. 실험을 통하여 기존의 주요 방법들 보다 탐지 결과가 10% 이상 높게 나타남을 확인할 수 있다.
