  • Although researchers have proposed numerous techniques for speech emotion recognition, its performance remains unsatisfactory in many application scenarios. In this study, we propose a speech emotion recognition model based on a genetic algorithm (GA)-decision tree (DT) fusion of deep and acoustic features. To more comprehensively express speech emotional information, first, frame-level deep and acoustic features are extracted from a speech signal. Next, five kinds of statistic variables of these features are calculated to obtain utterance-level features. The Fisher feature selection criterion is employed to select high-performance features, removing redundant information. In the feature fusion stage, the GA is is used to adaptively search for the best feature fusion weight. Finally, using the fused feature, the proposed speech emotion recognition model based on a DT support vector machine model is realized. Experimental results on the Berlin speech emotion database and the Chinese emotion speech database indicate that the proposed model outperforms an average weight fusion method.

  • 본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크에서 비 가우시안 채널 환경에서, 결정 융합 검출 규칙에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 결정 융합에 대한 잡음 분포의 테일 특성이 갖는 영향을 고려하기 위하여 exponentially-tailed 분포를 사용하였다. 페이딩과 잡음 채널로 구성된 병렬 결정 융합 모델로부터 우도비율 기반 융합 규칙을 Neyman-Pearson 평가 하에서 최적화 규칙으로 고려하였으며, 이 최적화 규칙으로부터 높은 신호대 잡음비와 낮은 신호대 잡음비 근사를 통하여 몇 가지 준 최적화 규칙들을 구하였다. 또한 최소한의 사전 정보를 가지고 강인한 검파 성능을 제공하기 위하여 리미터 형태의 간략화 된 준 최적화 검출 규칙을 제안하였다. 모의실험을 통하여 결정 융합 규칙들의 성능을 비교 분석 하였으며 실험 결과들로부터 제안된 리미터 형태의 결정 융합 규칙의 강인성을 입증하였다.

  • In this paper, we propose an efficient feature vector extraction and decision fusion methods for the automatic classification of power system disturbances. Here, FFT and WPT(wavelet packet transform) are und to extract an appropriate feature for classifying power quality disturbances with variable properties. In particular, the WPT can be utilized to develop an adaptable feature extraction algorithm using best basis selection. Furthermore. the extracted feature vectors are applied as input to the decision fusion system which combines the decisions of several classifiers having complementary performances, leading to improvement of the classification performance. Finally, the applicability of the proposed approach is demonstrated using some simulations results obtained by analyzing power quality disturbances data generated by using Matlab.

  • According to the remarkable advances in sonar technology, positioning capabilities and computer processing power we can accurately image and explore the seafloor in hydrography. Especially, Multibeam Echo Sounder can provide nearly perfect coverage of the seafloor with high resolution. Since the mid-1990's, Multibeam Echo Sounders have been used for hydrographic surveying in Korea. In this study, new marine data set as an effective decision-making tool in various fields was proposed by visualizing and combining with Multibeam sonar data and marine spatial data sets such as satellite image and digital nautical chart. The proposed method was tested around the port of PyeongTaek-DangJin in the west coast of Korea. The Visualization and fusion methods are described with various marine data sets with processing. We demonstrated that new data set in marine GIS is useful in safe navigation and port management as an efficient decision-making tool.

  • 얼굴인식 기술은 지능형 보안, 웹에서 콘텐츠 검색, 지능로봇의 시각부분, 머신인터페이스 등, 활용이 광범위 하다. 그러나 일반적으로 대상자의 표정과 포즈 변화, 주변의 조명 환경과 같은 문제가 있으며 이와 더불어 원거리에서 획득한 영상의 경우 저해상도를 비롯하여 블러와 잡음에 의한 영상의 열화 등의 여러 가지 어려움이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 포톤 카운팅(Photon-counting) 선형판별법(Linear Discriminant Analysis)을 이용한 다중 분류기(Classifier)에 의한 판정을 융합하여 얼굴 영상 인식을 수행한다. Fisher 선형판별법은 집단 간 분산을 최대로 하고 집단 내 분산을 최소로 하는 공간으로 선형 투영하는 방법으로, 학습영상의 수가 적을 경우 특이행렬 문제가 발생하지만 포톤카운팅 선형 판별법은 이러한 문제가 없으므로 차원축소를 위한 전 처리 과정이 필요 없다. 본 논문의 다중 분류기는 포톤 카운팅 선형판별법의 유클리드 거리(Euclidean Distance) 또는 정규화된 상관(Normalized Correlation)을 적용하는 판정규칙에 따라 구성된다. 다중분류기의 판정의 융합은 각 분류기 cost의 정규화(Normalization), 유효화(Validation), 그리고 융합규칙(Fusion Rule)으로 구성된다. 각 분류기에서 도출된 cost는 같은 범위로 정규화된 후 유효화 과정에서 선별되고 Minimum, 또는 Average, 또는 Majority-voting의 융합규칙에 의하여 융합된다. 실험에서는 원거리에서 획득한 효과를 구현하기 위하여 고해상도 데이터베이스 영상을 인위적으로 Unfocusing과 Motion 블러를 이용하여 열화하여 테스트하였다. 실험 결과는 다중분류기 융합결과의 인식률은 단일분류기보다 높다는 것을 보여준다.

  • 지능형 로봇이나 컴퓨터가 일상생활 속에서 차지하는 비중이 점점 높아짐에 따라 인간과의 상호교류도 점점 중요시되고 있다. 이렇게 지능형 로봇(컴퓨터) - 인간의 상호 교류하는데 있어서 감정 인식 및 표현은 필수라 할 수 있겠다. 본 논문에서는 음성 신호와 얼굴 영상에서 감정적인 특징들을 추출한 후 이것을 Bayesian Learning과 Principal Component Analysis에 적용하여 5가지 감정(평활, 기쁨, 슬픔, 화남, 놀람)으로 패턴을 분류하였다. 그리고 각각 매개체의 단점을 보완하고 인식률을 높이기 위해서 결정 융합 방법과 특징 융합 방법을 적용하여 감정 인식 실험을 하였다. 결정 융합 방법은 각각 인식 시스템을 통해 얻어진 인식 결과 값을 퍼지 소속 함수에 적용하여 감정 인식 실험을 하였으며, 특징 융합 방법은 SFS(Sequential Forward Selection) 특징 선택 방법을 통해 우수한 특징들을 선택한 후 MLP(Multi Layer Perceptron) 기반 신경망(Neural Networks)에 적용하여 감정 인식 실험을 실행하였다. 그리고 인식된 결과 값을 2D 얼굴 형태에 적용하여 감정을 표현하였다.

  • Human being recognizes emotion fusing information of the other speech signal, expression, gesture and bio-signal. Computer needs technologies that being recognized as human do using combined information. In this paper, we recognized five emotions (normal, happiness, anger, surprise, sadness) through speech signal and facial image, and we propose to method that fusing into emotion for emotion recognition result is applying to multimodal method. Speech signal and facial image does emotion recognition using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method. And multimodal is fusing into emotion result applying fuzzy membership function. With our experiments, our average emotion recognition rate was 63% by using speech signals, and was 53.4% by using facial images. That is, we know that speech signal offers a better emotion recognition rate than the facial image. We proposed decision fusion method using S-type membership function to heighten the emotion recognition rate. Result of emotion recognition through proposed method, average recognized rate is 70.4%. We could know that decision fusion method offers a better emotion recognition rate than the facial image or speech signal.

  • Adult spinal deformity (ASD) is one of the most challenging spinal disorders associated with broad range of clinical and radiological presentation. Correct selection of fusion levels in surgical planning for the management of adult spinal deformity is a complex task. Several classification systems and algorithms exist to assist surgeons in determining the appropriate levels to be instrumented. In this study, we describe our new simple decision making algorithm and selection of fusion level for ASD surgery in terms of adult idiopathic idiopathic scoliosis vs. degenerative scoliosis.

  • In this paper, a new soft-fusion approach for multiple-receiver wireless communication systems is proposed. In the proposed approach, each individual receiver provides the central receiver with a confidence level rather than a binary decision. The confidence levels associated with the local receiver are modeled by means of soft-membership functions. The proposed approach can be applied to wireless digital communication systems, such as amplitude shift keying, frequency shift keying, phase shift keying, multi-carrier code division multiple access, and multiple inputs multiple outputs sensor networks. The performance of the proposed approach is evaluated and compared to the performance of the optimal diversity, majority voting, optimal partial decision, and selection diversity in case of binary noncoherent frequency shift keying on a Rayleigh faded additive white Gaussian noise channel. It is shown that the proposed approach achieves considerable performance improvement over optimal partial decision, majority voting, and selection diversity. It is also shown that the proposed approach achieves a performance comparable to the optimal diversity scheme.
