  • This paper presents a facial expression recognition based on Gabor wavelets that uses a fuzzy C-means(FCM) clustering algorithm and neural network. Features of facial expressions are extracted to two steps. In the first step, Gabor wavelet representation can provide edges extraction of major face components using the average value of the image's 2-D Gabor wavelet coefficient histogram. In the next step, we extract sparse features of facial expressions from the extracted edge information using FCM clustering algorithm. The result of facial expression recognition is compared with dimensional values of internal stated derived from semantic ratings of words related to emotion. The dimensional model can recognize not only six facial expressions related to Ekman's basic emotions, but also expressions of various internal states.

  • This study introduces the method of detecting and restoring occlusion areas by using epipolar algorithm and K-means classification algorithm for true ortho-photo generation. In the past, the techniques of detecting occlusion areas are using the reference images or information of buildings. But, in this study the occlusion areas can be automatically detected by using DTM data and exterior orientation parameters. The detected occlusion areas can be restored by using anther images or the computed values which are determined in K-means classification algorithm. In addition, this method takes advantages of applying epipolar algorithm in order to find same location in overlapping areas among images.

  • In this paper, we introduce an inference system using hard scatter partition method and model the nonlinear process. To do this, we use the hard scatter partition method that partition the input space in the scatter form with the value of the membership degree of 0 or 1. The proposed method is implemented by C-Means clustering algorithm. and is used for the initial center values by means of binary split. by applying the LBG algorithm to compensate for shortcomings in the sensitive initial center value. Hard-scatter-partitioned input space forms the rules in the rule-based system modeling. The premise parameters of the rules are determined by membership matrix by means of C-Means clustering algorithm. The consequence part of the rules is expressed in the form of polynomial functions and the coefficient parameters of each rule are determined by the standard least-squares method. The data widely used in nonlinear process is used to model the nonlinear process and evaluate the characteristics of nonlinear process.

  • Many papers have shown that the hierarchical clustering method takes good-performance, but is limited because of its quadratic time complexity. In contrast, with a large number of variables, K-means reduces a time complexity. Think of the factor of simplify, high-quality and high-efficiency, we combine the two approaches providing a new system named CONDOR system with hierarchical structure based on document clustering using K-means algorithm. Evaluated the performance on different hierarchy depth and initial uncertain centroid number based on variational relative document amount correspond to given queries. Comparing with regular method that the initial centroids have been established in advance, our method performance has been improved a lot.

  • To classify the landfast ice in the north of the Greenland, observation data, multifrequency Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images and texture images were used. The total four types of sea ice are first year ice, highly deformed ice, ridge and moderately deformed ice. The texture images that were processed by K-means algorithm showed higher accuracy than the ones that were processed by SAR images; however, overall accuracy of maximum likelihood algorithm using texture images did not show the highest accuracy all the time. It turned out that when using K-means algorithm, the accuracy of the multi SAR images were higher than the single SAR image. When using the maximum likelihood algorithm, the results of single and multi SAR images are differ from each other, therefore, maximum likelihood algorithm method should be used properly.

  • The fuzzy c-means (FCM) is a frequently utilized algorithm at present. Yet, the clustering quality and convergence rate of FCM are determined by the initial cluster centers, and so an improved FCM algorithm based on canopy cluster concept to quickly analyze the dataset has been proposed. Taking advantage of the canopy algorithm for its rapid acquisition of cluster centers, this algorithm regards the cluster results of canopy as the input. In this way, the convergence rate of the FCM algorithm is accelerated. Meanwhile, the MapReduce scheme of the proposed FCM algorithm is designed in a cloud environment. Experimental results demonstrate the hybrid canopy-FCM clustering algorithm processed by MapReduce be endowed with better clustering quality and higher operation speed.

  • Ambient backscatter communication has a drawback in which the transmission power is limited because the data is transmitted using the ambient RF signal. In order to improve transmission efficiency between transceiver, a channel estimator capable of estimating channel state at a receiver is needed. In this paper, we consider the K-means algorithm to improve the performance of the channel estimator based on EM algorithm. The simulation uses MSE as a performance parameter to verify the performance of the proposed channel estimator. The initial value setting through K-means shows improved performance compared to the channel estimation method using the general EM algorithm.

  • K-means is one of the simplest unsupervised learning algorithms that solve the clustering problem. However K-means suffers the basic shortcoming: the number of clusters k has to be known in advance. In this paper, we propose extensions of X-means, which can estimate the number of clusters using Bayesian information criterion(BIC). We introduce two different versions of algorithm: modified X-means(MX-means) and generalized X-means(GX-means), which employ one full covariance matrix for one cluster and so can estimate the number of clusters efficiently without severe over-fitting which X-means suffers due to its spherical cluster assumption. The algorithms start with one cluster and try to split a cluster iteratively to maximize the BIC score. The former uses K-means algorithm to find a set of optimal clusters with current k, which makes it simple and fast. However it generates wrongly estimated centers when the clusters are overlapped. The latter uses EM algorithm to estimate the parameters and generates more stable clusters even when the clusters are overlapped. Experiments with synthetic data show that the purposed methods can provide a robust estimate of the number of clusters and cluster parameters compared to other existing top-down algorithms.

  • This paper proposes to automate the process of predicting crypto-operations from the power signal generated in RSA decoding process by frequency analysis and K-means algorithm. RSA decoding process is divided into square and multiply operation, and if we can predict the type of operations over time, we will know the RSA key value. After converting the power signal generated in the process of decoding into two-dimensional frequency signal, this paper used K-means algorithm to classify the frequency vector according to the type of operation. these classified frequency vector were used to predict the types of operations.
