Image processing for object detection and identification has been studied for supply chain management application with various approaches. Among them, feature pointed detection algorithm is used to track an object or to recognize a position in automated supply chain systems and a depth image based feature point detection is recently highlighted in the application. The result of feature point detection is easily influenced by image noise. Also, the depth image has noise itself and it also affects to the accuracy of the detection results. In order to solve these problems, we propose a novel hybrid filtering mechanism for depth image based feature point detection, it shows better performance compared with conventional hybrid filtering mechanism.

This paper proposes a classifier based on rectangular feature to detect face in real time. The goal is to realize a strong detection algorithm which satisfies both efficiency in calculation and detection performance. The proposed algorithm consists of the following three stages: Feature creation, classifier study and real time facial domain detection. Feature creation organizes a feature set with the proposed five rectangular features and calculates the feature values efficiently by using SAT (Summed-Area Tables). Classifier learning creates classifiers hierarchically by using the AdaBoost algorithm. In addition, it gets excellent detection performance by applying important face patterns repeatedly at the next level. Real time facial domain detection finds facial domains rapidly and efficiently through the classifier based on the rectangular feature that was created. Also, the recognition rate was improved by using the domain which detected a face domain as the input image and by using PCA and KNN algorithms and a Class to Class rather than the existing Point to Point technique.

Recent developments in robotics and intelligent vehicle area, bring interests of people in an autonomous driving ability and advanced driving assistance system. Especially fully automatic parking ability is one of the key issues of intelligent vehicles, and accurate parked vehicles detection is essential for this issue. In previous researches, many types of sensors are used for detecting vehicles, 2D LiDAR is popular since it offers accurate range information without preprocessing. The L shape feature is most popular 2D feature for vehicle detection, however it has an ambiguity on different objects such as building, bushes and this occurs misdetection problem. Therefore we propose the accurate vehicle detection method by using a 3D complete vehicle model in 3D point clouds acquired from front inclined 2D LiDAR. The proposed method is decomposed into two steps: vehicle candidate extraction, vehicle detection. By combination of L shape feature and point clouds segmentation, we extract the objects which are highly related to vehicles and apply 3D model to detect vehicles accurately. The method guarantees high detection performance and gives plentiful information for autonomous parking. To evaluate the method, we use various parking situation in complex urban scene data. Experimental results shows the qualitative and quantitative performance efficiently.

In this paper, a novel system for avatar motion controlling by tracking face is presented. The system is composed of three main parts: firstly, LCS (Local Cluster Searching) method based face feature detection algorithm, secondly, HMM based feature points recognition algorithm, and finally, avatar controlling and animation generation algorithm. In LCS method, face region can be divided into many small piece regions in horizontal and vertical direction. Then the method will judge each cross point that if it is an object point, edge point or the background point. The HMM method will distinguish the mouth, eyes, nose etc. from these feature points. Based on the detected facial feature points, the 3D avatar is controlled by two ways: avatar orientation and animation, the avatar orientation controlling information can be acquired by analyzing facial geometric information; avatar animation can be generated from the face feature points smoothly. And finally for evaluating performance of the developed system, we implement the system on Window XP OS, the results show that the system can have an excellent performance.

Feature detection is very important to image processing area. In this paper we compare and analyze some characteristics of image processing algorithms for corner and blob feature detection. We also analyze the simulation results through image matching process. We show that how these algorithms work and how fast they execute. The simulation results are shown for helping us to select an algorithm or several algorithms extracting corner and blob feature.

In this paper, a new speech endpoint detector in noisy environment is proposed. According to the previous research, the energy feature in the speech region is easily distinguished from that in the speech absent region. In conventional method, the endpoint can be found by applying the edge detection filter that finds the abrupt changing point in feature domain. However, since the frame energy feature is unstable in noisy environment, the accurate edge detection is not possible. Therefore, in this paper, the novel feature extraction method based on spectrum envelop pattern is proposed. Then, the edge detection filter is applied to the proposed feature for detection of the endpoint. The experiments are performed in the car noise environment and a substantial improvement was obtained over the conventional method.

Motion detection is an important step in computer vision and image processing. Traditional motion detection systems are classified into two categories, namely, feature based and gradient based. In feature based motion detection, features in consecutive frames are detected and matched. Gradient based methods assume that the intensity varies linearly and locally. The method, which we propose, is neither feature nor gradient based but uses the electric field theory. The pixels in an image are modeled as point charges and motion is detected by using the variations between the two electric fields produced by the charges corresponding to the two images.

Railway point machines act as actuators that provide different routes to trains by driving switchblades from the current position to the opposite one. Since point failure can significantly affect railway operations with potentially disastrous consequences, early stress detection of point machine is critical for monitoring and managing the condition of rail infrastructure. In this paper, we propose a stress detection method for point machine in railway condition monitoring systems using sound data. The system enables extracting sound feature vector subset from audio data with reduced feature dimensions using feature subset selection, and employs support vector machines (SVMs) for early detection of stress anomalies. Experimental results show that the system enables cost-effective detection of stress using a low-cost microphone, with accuracy exceeding 98%.
