This study developed a model to classify news articles into categories of topic, genre, and region using a Korean Pre-trained Language model. To achieve this, a new news article classification system was designed by referring to the classification systems of domestic media outlets. The topic and genre classification models were implemented as hierarchical classification models that link the main categories and subcategories, and their performance was compared with that of an integrated category model. The evaluation results showed that the hierarchical structure classification model had the advantage of providing more precise categorization in ambiguous or overlapping categories compared to the integrated category model. For regional classification of news articles, a model was built to classify into 18 categories, and for regional news articles, the regional characteristics were clearly reflected in the text, resulting in high performance. This study demonstrated the effectiveness of classifying news articles from multiple perspectives-topic, genre, and region-and emphasized the significance of suggesting the potential for a multi-dimensional news article classification service that meets user needs.

In this paper, a hierarchical image tree model for weather classification is defined in a single outdoor image, and a weather classification algorithm using image intensity and k-mean segmentation image is proposed. In the first level of the hierarchical image tree model, the indoor and outdoor images are distinguished. Whether the outdoor image is daytime, night, or sunrise/sunset image is judged using the intensity and the k-means segmentation image at the second level. In the last level, if it is classified as daytime image at the second level, it is finally estimated whether it is sunny or foggy image based on edge map and fog rate. Some experiments are conducted so as to verify the weather classification, and as a result, the proposed method shows that weather features are effectively detected in a given image.

Recently, with the development of deep learning technology, researches to apply a deep learning algorithm to analyze unstructured data such as text and images are being actively conducted. Text classification has been studied for a long time in academia and industry, and various attempts are being performed to utilize data characteristics to improve classification performance. In particular, a hierarchical relationship of labels has been utilized for hierarchical classification. However, the top-down approach mainly used for hierarchical classification has a limitation that misclassification at a higher level blocks the opportunity for correct classification at a lower level. Therefore, in this study, we propose a methodology for classifying hierarchical data using the autoencoder-based deeply supervised network that high-level classification does not block the low-level classification while considering the hierarchical relationship of labels. The proposed methodology adds a main classifier that predicts a low-level label to the autoencoder's latent variable and an auxiliary classifier that predicts a high-level label to the hidden layer of the autoencoder. As a result of experiments on 22,512 academic papers to evaluate the performance of the proposed methodology, it was confirmed that the proposed model showed superior classification accuracy and F1-score compared to the traditional supervised autoencoder and DNN model.

This paper describes fault diagnosis method in complex system with hierachical structure similar to human body structure. Complex system is divided into unit, item and component. For diagnosing this hierarchical complex system, it is necessary to implement special neural network. Fault diagnosis system can forecast faults in a system and decide from current machine state signal information. Comparing with other diagnosis system for single fault, the developed system deals with multiple fault diagnosis comprising Hierarchical Neural Network(HNN). HNN consists of four level neural network, first level for item fault symptom classification, second level for item fault diagnosis, third level for component symptom classification, forth level for component fault diagnosis. UNIX IPC(Inter Process Communication) is used for implementing HNN wiht multitasking and message transfer between processes in SUN workstation with X-Windows(Motif). We tested HNN at four units, seven items per unit, seven components per item in a complex system. Each one neural newtork operate as a separate process in HNN. The message queue take charge of information exdhange and cooperation between each neural network.

The more people use ambulatory electrocardiogram(ECG) for arrhythmia detection, the more researchers report the automatic classification algorithms. Most of the previous studies don't consider the un-balanced data distribution. Even in patients, there are much more normal beats than abnormal beats among the data from 24 hours. To solve this problem, the hierarchical classification using 21 features was adopted for arrhythmia abnormal beat detection. The features include R-R intervals and data to describe the morphology of the wave. To validate the algorithm, 44 non-pacemaker recordings from physionet were used. The hierarchical classification model with 2 stages on domain knowledge was constructed. Using our suggested method, we could improve the performance in abnormal beat classification from the conventional multi-class classification method. In conclusion, the domain knowledge based hierarchical classification is useful to the ECG beat classification with unbalanced data distribution.

This paper describes a hierarchical method for image-based age estimation that combines age group classification and age value estimation. The proposed method uses a coarse-to-fine strategy with different appearance features to describe facial shape and texture. Considering the damage to continuity between neighboring groups caused by fixed divisions during age group classification, a dynamic grouping technique is employed to allow non-fixed groups. Based on the given group, an ordinal hyperplane ranking (OHRank) model is employed to transform age estimation into a series of binary enquiry problems that can take advantage of the intrinsic correlation and ordinal information of age. A set of experiments on FG-NET are presented and the results demonstrate the validity of our solution.

Recognizing food from photographs presents many applications for machine learning, computer vision and dietetics, etc. Recent progress of deep learning techniques accelerates the recognition of food in a great scale. We build a hierarchical structure composed of deep CNN to recognize and classify food from photographs. We build a dataset for Korean food of 18 classes, which are further categorized in 4 major classes. Our hierarchical recognizer classifies foods into four major classes in the first step. Each food in the major classes is further classified into the exact class in the second step. We employ DenseNet structure for the baseline of our recognizer. The hierarchical structure provides higher accuracy and F1 score than those from the single-structured recognizer.

For national industrial development in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it is necessary to provide researchers with appropriate job information. This can be achieved by interconnecting the National Science and Technology Standard Classification System used for management of research activity with the Korean Employment Classification of Occupations used for job information management. In the present study, an automatic linkage model of classification systems is introduced based on a pre-trained language model for interconnecting science and technology information with job information. We propose for the first time an automatic model for linkage of classification systems. Our model effectively maps similar classes between the National Science & Technology Standard Classification System and Korean Employment Classification of Occupations. Moreover, the model increases interconnection performance by considering hierarchical features of classification systems. Experimental results show that precision and recall of the proposed model are about 0.82 and 0.84, respectively.

In this paper, we classified the objectionable texts into four rates according to their harmfulness and proposed the hierarchical text rating system for objectionable documents. Since the documents in the same category have similarities in used words, expressions and structure of the document, the text rating system, which uses a single classification model, has low accuracy. To solve this problem, we separate objectionable documents into several subsets by using their properties, and then classify the subsets hierarchically. The proposed system consists of three layers. In each layer, we select features using the chi-square statistics, and then the weight of the features, which is calculated by using the TF-IDF weighting scheme, is used as an input of the non-linear SVM classifier. By means of a hierarchical scheme using the different features and the different number of features in each layer, we can characterize the objectionability of documents more effectively and expect to improve the performance of the rating system. We compared the performance of the proposed system and performance of several text rating systems and experimental results show that the proposed system can archive an excellent classification performance.

As well as providing various APIs for the development of inference engines and storage models, Jena is widely used in the development of systems or tools related with Web ontology management. However, Jena still has several problems with regard to the development of real applications, one of the most important being that its query processing performance is unacceptable. This paper proposes a storage model to improve the query processing performance of the original Jena storage. The proposed storage model semantically classifies OWL elements, and stores an ontology in separately classified tables according to the classification. In particular, the hierarchical knowledge is managed, which can make the processing performance of inferable queries enhanced and stores information. It enhances the query processing performance by using hierarchical knowledge. For this paper an experimental evaluation was conducted, the results of which showed that the proposed storage model provides a improved performance compared with Jena.
