A software package to classify acoustic emission (AE) signals using the wavelet transform and the neural network was developed Both of the continuous and the discrete wavelet transforms are considered, and the error back-propagation neural network is adopted as m artificial neural network algorithm. The signals acquired during the 3-point bending test of specimens which have artificial defects on weld zone are used for the classification of the defects. Features are extracted from the time-frequency plane which is the result of the wavelet transform of signals, and the neural network classifier is tamed using the extracted features to classify the signals. It has been shown that the developed software package is useful to classify AE signals. The difference between the classification results by the continuous and the discrete wavelet transforms is also discussed.

Generally, binary pattern transforms have been used in the field of the face recognition and facial expression, since they are robust to illumination. Thus, this paper proposes an illumination-robust face recognition system combining an MLDP, which improves the texture component of the LDP, and a 2D-PCA algorithm. Unlike that binary pattern transforms such as LBP and LDP were used to extract histogram features, the proposed method directly uses the MLDP image for feature extraction by 2D-PCA. The performance evaluation of proposed method was carried out using various algorithms such as PCA, 2D-PCA and Gabor wavelets-based LBP on Yale B and CMU-PIE databases which were constructed under varying lighting condition. From the experimental results, we confirmed that the proposed method showed the best recognition accuracy.

A user remembers a melody as not the combination of pitch and duration which is written in score but the contour which is composed of the relative pitch and duration. Because of the way of remembering a melody the previous Music Information Retrieval Systems which uses keyboard Playing or score as the main input melody are not easily acceptable in Query By Humming Systems. In this paper, we mention about the considerable checkpoints for Query By Humming System and previous researches. And we propose the feature extraction which is similar with the way of remembering a melody and similarity computation algorithms between melody in humming and melody in music. The proposed similarity computation algorithms solves the problem which can be happened when only uses the relative pitches by using relative durations.

Wearing degree and uneven wearing detection algorithm using horizontal edge information is proposed in this paper. The noise in the input image is removed by bilateral filter, and then edges are extracted from the filtered image by using the proposed mask. As the tire is worn, grooves of tire shoulder or sipes are changed more than the vertical grooves. Therefore the edges from grooves of tire shoulder or sipes have more information about the tire wearing than the edges from vertical grooves. Proposed mask that is reflected this feature is used to extract the horizontal edges. After edge extraction, the edge image is represented in two-level system. The edge pixels of the binarization image are used to decide the wearing degree and uneven wearing. This proposed method can be used easily without any other equipments. The proposed method is conducted with a real vehicle, and the experimental results show the good performance of the proposed method in detecting wearing degree and uneven wearing.

Uninterrupted monitoring of multiple subjects is required for mass causality events, in hospital environment or for sports by medical technicians or physicians. Movement of subjects under monitoring requires such system to be wireless, sometimes demands multiple transmitters and a receiver as a base station and monitored parameter must not be corrupted by any noise before further diagnosis. A Bluetooth Piconet network is visualized, where each subject carries a Bluetooth transmitter module that acquires vital sign continuously and relays to Bluetooth enabled device where, further signal processing is done. In this paper, a wireless network is realized to capture ECG of two subjects performing different activities like cycling, jogging, staircase climbing at 100 Hz frequency using prototyped Bluetooth module. The paper demonstrates removal of baseline drift using Fast Fourier Transform and Inverse Fast Fourier Transform and removal of high frequency noise using moving average and S-Golay algorithm. Experimental results highlight the efficacy of the proposed work to monitor any vital sign parameters of multiple subjects simultaneously. The importance of removing baseline drift before high frequency noise removal is shown using experimental results. It is possible to use Bluetooth Piconet frame work to capture ECG simultaneously for more than two subjects. For the applications where there will be larger body movement, baseline drift removal is a major concern and hence along with wireless transmission issues, baseline drift removal before high frequency noise removal is necessary for further feature extraction.

For each character constituting learning data, different fonts are added in pixel unit to create MASK, and then pixel values belonging to the MASK are divided into three groups. The experimental data are modified into skeletal forms, and then regional boundary operation is used to create a boundary that distinguishes the background region adjacent to the skeleton of the character from the background of the modified experimental data. Discordance values between the modified experimental data and the MASKs are calculated, and then the MASK with the minimum value is found. This MASK is selected as a finally recognized result for the given experiment data. The recognition algorithm using skeleton of the character and the regional boundary operation can easily extend the learning data set by adding new fonts to the given learning data, and also it is simple to implement, and high character recognition rate can be obtained.

With the rapid development of deep neural network theory and application research, the effect of face detection has been improved. However, due to the complexity of deep neural network calculation and the high complexity of the detection environment, how to detect face quickly and accurately becomes the main problem. This paper is based on the relatively simple model of the MTCNN model, using FDDB (Face Detection Dataset and Benchmark Homepage), LFW (Field Label Face) and FaceScrub public datasets as training samples. At the same time of sorting out and introducing MTCNN(Multi-Task Cascaded Convolutional Neural Network) model, it explores how to improve training speed and Increase performance at the same time. In this paper, the dynamic image pyramid technology is used to replace the traditional image pyramid technology to segment samples, and OHEM (the online hard example mine) function in MTCNN model is deleted in training, so as to improve the training speed.

In recent years, active research has been devoted toward developing a monitoring system using ambient vibration data in order to quantitatively determine the deterioration occurring in a structure over a long period of time. This study developed a low-cost edge computing system that detects the abnormalities in structures by utilizing the dynamic characteristics acquired from the structure over the long term for ensemble learning. The system hardware consists of the Raspberry Pi, an accelerometer, an inclinometer, a GPS RTK module, and a LoRa communication module. The structural abnormality detection afforded by the ensemble learning using dynamic characteristics is verified using a laboratory-scale structure model vibration experiment. A real-time distributed processing algorithm with dynamic feature extraction based on the experiment is installed on the Raspberry Pi. Based on the stable operation of installed systems at the Community Service Center, Pohang-si, Korea, the validity of the developed system was verified on-site.

In this paper, we propose a table tennis posture classification system using a cooperative robot to develop a table tennis robot that can be trained like a real game. The most ideal table tennis robot would be a robot with a high joint driving speed and a high degree of freedom. Therefore, in this paper, we intend to use a cooperative robot with sufficient degrees of freedom to develop a robot that can be trained like a real game. However, cooperative robots have the disadvantage of slow joint driving speed. These shortcomings are expected to be overcome through quick recognition. Therefore, in this paper, we try to quickly classify the opponent's posture to overcome the slow joint driving speed. To this end, learning about dynamic postures was conducted using image data as input, and finally, three classification models were created and comparative experiments and evaluations were performed on the designated dynamic postures. In conclusion, comparative experimental data demonstrate the highest classification accuracy and fastest classification speed in classification models using MLP (Multi-Layer Perceptron), and thus demonstrate the validity of the proposed algorithm.
