In this paper, we present a method to solve a convexly combined fuzzy relational equation with generalized connectives. For this, we propose a neural network whose structure represents the fuzzy relational equation. Then we derive a learning algorithm by using the concept of back-propagation learning. Since the proposed method can be used for a general form of fuzzy relational equations, such fuzzy max-min or min-max relational equations can be treated as its special cases. Moreover, the relational structure adopted in the proposed neurocomputational approach can work in a highly parallel manner so that real-time applications of fuzzy sets are possibles as in fuzzy logic controllers, knowledge-based systems, and pattern recognition systems.

영상 분할 (Image Segmentation)은 패턴 인식, 환경 인식, 문서 분석을 위한 영상 처리 과정에서 가장 기본적인 단계이다. 영상 분할 방법들 중 Otsu의 영상의 정규화된 히스토그램의 분포 정보를 이용하여 클래스 간의 분산을 최대화 시키는 임계치값을 결정하는 자동 임계치값 선정방법이 가장 잘 알려진 방법이다. Otsu의 방법은 영상의 전 영역에 대한 히스토그램을 분석함으로써 영상의 부분적인 특성을 반영하여 임계치값을 결정하기는 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이 어려움 해소하기 위하여 Context Fuzzy c-Means 알고리즘을 이용하여 영상을 여러 개의 부분 영역으로 나누고, 정의된 부 영역에 영상 분할 기법을 적용함으로써 부 영역들에 적합한 여러 개의 임계치값을 계산함으로써 영상 분할 성능을 개선하고자 하였다.

This paper presents an original feature selection method for Emotion Recognition which includes many original elements. Feature selection has some merits regarding pattern recognition performance. Thus, we developed a method called thee 'Interactive Feature Selection' and the results (selected features) of the IFS were applied to an emotion recognition system (ERS), which was also implemented in this research. The innovative feature selection method was based on a Reinforcement Learning Algorithm and since it required responses from human users, it was denoted an 'Interactive Feature Selection'. By performing an IFS, we were able to obtain three top features and apply them to the ERS. Comparing those results from a random selection and Sequential Forward Selection (SFS) and Genetic Algorithm Feature Selection (GAFS), we verified that the top three features were better than the randomly selected feature set.

In this paper, a method for the improvement of learning speed and convergence rate was proposed applied it to physiological neural structure with the advantages of artificial neural networks and fuzzy theory to physiological neuron structure, To compare the proposed method with conventional the single layer perception algorithm, we applied these algorithms bit parity problem and pattern recognition containing noise. The simulation result indicated that our learning algorithm reduces the possibility of local minima more than the conventional single layer perception does. Furthermore we show that our learning algorithm guarantees the convergence.

최근에 퍼지 이론을 인공 신경망에 접목하여 개선된 성능을 보이려는 경향이 많다. Goh는 퍼지단층 퍼셉트론 알고리즘과 일반적인 델타 규칙(Generalized delta rule)에 기반한 개선된 퍼지 퍼셉트론을 제안하여 Exclusive-OR(XOR) 문제 등을 해결하였다 그러나 이 방법은 계산량의 증가와 복잡한 영상인식에 적응하기에는 어려움이 있다. 논문에서는 동적 역치조정에 의한 개선된 퍼지 단층 퍼셉트론을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 페턴인식의 벤치마크로 사용되는 XOR문제에 적용된다. 또한 영상 응용영역으로서 디지털 영상의 인식에 적용한다. 실험결과에서 항상 수렴하지는 않지만 그러나 제안된 모델은 학습시간의 개선과 높은 수렴율을 보였다.

In this thesis, we perform the experiment of speaker recognition by identifying vowels in the pronounciation of each speaker. In detail, we extract the vowels from the pronounciation of each speaker first. From it, we check the frequency energgy of 29 channels. After changing these into fuzzy values, we employ the fuzzy inference to recognize the speaker by text-dependent and text-independent methods. For this experiment, an algorithm of extracting vowels is developed, and newly introduced parameter is the frequency energy of the 29 channels computed from the extracted vowels. It shows the features of each speakers better than existing parameters. The advanced point of this paramter is to use the reference pattern only without the help of any codebook. As a rewult, test-dependent method showed about 95.5% rate of recognition, and text-independent method showed about 94.2% rate of recognition.

Knowledge discovery in databases(KDD) is the process for extracting valid, novel, potentially useful and understandable knowledge form real data. There are many academic and industrial activities with new technologies and application areas. Particularly, data mining is the core step in the KDD process, consisting of many algorithms to perform clustering, pattern recognition and rule induction functions. The main goal of these algorithms is prediction and description. Prediction means the assessment of unknown variables. Description is concerned with providing understandable results in a compatible format to human users. We introduce an efficient data mining algorithm considering predictive and descriptive capability. Reasonable pattern is derived from real world data by a revised neural network model and a proposed fuzzy rule extraction technique is applied to obtain understandable knowledge. The proposed neural network model is a hierarchical self-organizing system. The rule base is compatible to decision makers perception because the generated fuzzy rule set reflects the human information process. Results from real world application are analyzed to evaluate the system\`s performance.

Steel-confined reinforced concrete (SCRC) columns feature highly complex and invisible mechanisms that make damage evaluation and pattern recognition difficult. In the present article, the prevailing acoustic emission (AE) technique was applied to monitor and evaluate the damage process of steel-confined RC columns in a quasi-static test. AE energy-based indicators, such as index of damage and relax ratio, were proposed to trace the damage progress and quantitatively evaluate the damage state. The fuzzy C-means algorithm successfully discriminated the AE data of different patterns, validity analysis guaranteed cluster accuracy, and principal component analysis simplified the datasets. A detailed statistical investigation on typical AE features was conducted to relate the clustered AE signals to micro mechanisms and the observed damage patterns, and differences between steel-confined and unconfined RC columns were compared and illustrated.

In this study, we propose a robust face recognition system to pose variations based on automatic pose estimation. Radial basis function neural network is applied as one of the functional components of the overall face recognition system. The proposed system consists of preprocessing and recognition modules to provide a solution to pose variation and high-dimensional pattern recognition problems. In the preprocessing part, principal component analysis (PCA) and 2-dimensional 2-directional PCA ($(2D)^2$ PCA) are applied. These functional modules are useful in reducing dimensionality of the feature space. The proposed RBFNNs architecture consists of three functional modules such as condition, conclusion and inference phase realized in terms of fuzzy "if-then" rules. In the condition phase of fuzzy rules, the input space is partitioned with the use of fuzzy clustering realized by the Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) algorithm. In conclusion phase of rules, the connections (weights) are realized through four types of polynomials such as constant, linear, quadratic and modified quadratic. The coefficients of the RBFNNs model are obtained by fuzzy inference method constituting the inference phase of fuzzy rules. The essential design parameters (such as the number of nodes, and fuzzification coefficient) of the networks are optimized with the aid of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Experimental results completed on standard face database -Honda/UCSD, Cambridge Head pose, and IC&CI databases demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of face recognition system compared with other studies.
