In this paper, we proposed new speech feature parameter through parts-based feature extraction of speech spectrum using Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF). NMF can effectively reduce dimension for multi-dimensional data through matrix factorization under the non-negativity constraints, and dimensionally reduced data should be presented parts-based features of input data. For speech feature extraction, we applied Mel-scaled filter bank outputs to inputs of NMF, than used outputs of NMF for inputs of speech recognizer. From recognition experiment result, we could confirm that proposed feature parameter is superior in recognition performance than mel frequency cepstral coefficient (MFCC) that is used generally.

There has been a lot of attention paid recently to analyze dynamic human gestures that vary over time. Most attention to dynamic gestures concerns with spatio-temporal features, as compared to analyzing each frame of gestures separately. For accurate dynamic gesture recognition, motion feature extraction algorithms need to find representative features that uniquely identify time-varying gestures. This paper proposes a new feature-extraction algorithm using temporal self-similarity based on a hierarchical human model. Because a conventional temporal self-similarity method computes a whole movement among the continuous frames, the conventional temporal self-similarity method cannot recognize different gestures with the same amount of movement. The proposed model-based temporal self-similarity method groups body parts of a hierarchical model into several sets and calculates movements for each set. While recognition results can depend on how the sets are made, the best way to find optimal sets is to separate frequently used body parts from less-used body parts. Then, we apply a multiclass support vector machine whose optimization algorithm is based on structural support vector machines. In this paper, the effectiveness of the proposed feature extraction algorithm is demonstrated in an application for taebo gesture recognition. We show that the model-based temporal self-similarity method can overcome the shortcomings of the conventional temporal self-similarity method and the recognition results of the model-based method are superior to that of the conventional method.

In this paper, we propose new speech feature parameter using NMf(Non-Negative Matrix Factorization). NMF can represent multi-dimensional data based on effective dimensional reduction through matrix factorization under the non-negativity constraint, and reduced data present parts-based features of input data. In this paper, we verify about usefulness of NMF algorithm for speech feature extraction applying feature parameter that is got using NMF in Mel-scaled filter bank output. According to recognition experiment result, we could confirm that proposal feature parameter is superior in recognition performance than MFCC(mel frequency cepstral coefficient) that is used generally.

Recently, there has been studied on feature extraction method for efficient content-based image retrieval. Especially, Many researchers have been studying on extracting feature from color Information, because of its advantages. This paper proposes a feature and its extraction method based on color correlogram that is extracted from color information in an image. the proposed method is computed from the image segmented into two parts; the complex part and the plain part. Our experiments show that the performance of the proposed method is better as compared with that of the original color correlogram method.

A holistic representation, such as sparse ceding or independent component analysis (ICA), was successfully applied to explain early auditory processing and sound classification. In contrast, Part-based representation is an alternative way of understanding object recognition in brain. In this paper. we employ the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF)［1］which learns parts-based representation for sound classification. Feature extraction methods from spectrogram using NMF are explained. Experimental results show that NMF-based features improve the performance of sound classification over ICA-based features.

이 논문은 고차원의 데이터를 저 차원으로 줄이는 방법 중 하나인 특징추출에 대한 방법들의 특성을 비교한다. 비교대상 방법은 전통적인 PCA(Principal Component Analysis)방법과 시각피질의 특성을 보인다고 알려진 ICA(Independent Component Analysis), 국소기반인식을 구현한 NMF(Non-negative Matrix Factorization), 그리고 이의 성능을 개선한 sNMF(Sparse NMF)로 정하였다. 추출된 특징들의 특성을 시각적으로 확인하기 위하여 필기체 숫자 영상을 대상으로 특징추출을 수행하였으며, 인식기에 적용한 효과의 확인을 위하여 추출된 특징을 다층퍼셉트론에 학습시켜보았다. 각 방법의 특성을 비교한 결과는 응용하고자 하는 문제에서 어떤 특징을 추출하기 원하느냐에 따라 특징추출 방법을 선정할 때 유용할 것이다.

본 논문에서는 화상자료의 특성인 이웃 화소간의 종속성을 표현하는데 적합한 깁스분포를 바탕으로 얼굴 표정을 인식을 위한 특징벡터를 추출하는 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 추출된 특징벡터는 얼굴 이미지의 크기, 위치, 회전에 대하여 불변한 특성을 갖는다. 얼굴 표정을 인식하기 위한 알고리즘은 특징벡터 추출하는 과정과 패턴을 인식하는 두 과정으로 나뉘어진다. 특징벡터는 얼굴 화상에 대하여 추정된 깁스분포를 바탕으로 수정된 2-D 조건부 모멘트로 구성된다. 얼굴 표정인식 과정에서는 패턴인식에 널리 사용되는 이산형 HMM를 사용한다. 제안된 방법에 대한 성능평가를 위하여 4가지의 얼굴 표정 인식 실험을 Workstation에서 실험한 결과, 제안된 얼굴 표정 인식 방법이 95% 이상의 성능을 보여주었다.

This paper describe the development of a systematic method of slicing solid parts based on a data structure called Sliced Profile Data Structure(SPDS). SPDS is an augmented polygon data structure that allows multiple layers of sliced profiles to be connected together. The method consists of five steps: (1) Selection of slicing directions, (2) Determination of slicing levels, (3) Creation of sliced profiles, (4) Connection of sliced profiles, and (5) Refinement. The presented method is aimed at enhancing the applicability of CSG for manufacturing by overcoming the problem of non-uniqueness and global nature. The SPDS-based method of feature extraction is suitable for recognizing broad scope of features with detailed information. The method is also suitable for identifying the global relationships among features and is capable of incorporating the context dependency of feature extraction.
