We present an approach to detect real plane for line base recognition and pose estimation Given 3D line segments, we set up reference plane for each line pair and measure the normal distance from the end point to the reference plane. And then, normal distances are measured between remains of line endpoints and reference plane to decide whether these lines are coplanar with respect to the reference plane. After we conduct this coplanarity test, we initiate visibility test using z-buffer value to prune out ambiguous planes from reference planes. We applied this algorithm to real images, and the results are found useful for evidence fusion and probabilistic verification to assist the line based recognition as well as 3D pose estimation.

In this paper, a method of detecting vehicle plates through depth pictures is proposed. A vehicle plate can be recognized by detecting the plane areas. First, plane factors of each square block are calculated. After that, the same plane areas are grouped by comparing the neighboring blocks to whether they are similar planes. Width and height for the detected plane area are obtained. If the height and width are matched to an actual vehicle plate, the area is recognized as a vehicle plate. Simulations results show that the recognition rates for the proposed method are about 87.8%.

In this paper, we propose an automatic system that recognizes dynamic human gestures activity, including Arabic numbers from 0 to 9. We assume the gesture trajectory is almost in a plane that called principal gesture plane, then the Least Squares Method is used to estimate the plane and project the 3-D trajectory model onto the principal. An improved FNN model combined with HMM is proposed for dynamic gesture recognition, which combines ability of HMM model for temporal data modeling with that of fuzzy neural network. The proposed algorithm shows that satisfactory performance and high recognition rate.

Pose variation is a critical problem in face recognition. Three-dimensional(3D) face recognition techniques have been proposed, as 3D data contains depth information that may allow problems of pose variation to be handled more effectively than with 2D face recognition methods. This paper proposes a pose-normalized 3D face modeling method that translates and rotates any pose angle to a frontal pose using a plane fitting method by Singular Value Decomposition(SVD). First, we reconstruct 3D face data with stereo vision method. Second, nose peak point is estimated by depth information and then the angle of pose is estimated by a facial plane fitting algorithm using four facial features. Next, using the estimated pose angle, the 3D face is translated and rotated to a frontal pose. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we designed 2D and 3D face recognition experiments. The experimental results show that the performance of the normalized 3D face recognition method is superior to that of an un-normalized 3D face recognition method for overcoming the problems of pose variation.

본 논문은 자동 로봇 용접을 위한 Hand-Eye 레이저 거리 측정기 기반 용접 평면 인식 기법을 제안한다. 로봇 용접은 대상체의 형상에 의해 미리 정의된 용접선을 따라 금속 대상체를 용접 평면에 접합하는 과정이다. 따라서 성공적인 로봇 용접을 위해서는 용접 평면의 위치와 방향을 정확히 검출해야 한다. 만약 평면의 위치와 방향을 정확히 검출하지 못한다면 자동 로봇 용접은 실패하게 된다. 정밀한 용접 평면 인식을 위해 레이저 거리 측정기를 이용해 평면상의 직선을 검출한다. 레이저 거리측정기에 의한 직선 검출을 위해 Hough 변환을 적용한다. Hough 변환은 투표 방법을 기반으로 하기 때문에 센서의 측정 오차를 줄일 수 있다. 이 때 레이저 거리 측정기가 부착된 로봇 관절을 회전시켜 평면상의 두 개의 직선을 검출한 후 두 직선의 방향 벡터에 외적을 취해 평면의 방향을 인식한다. 제안된 방법의 실효성을 검증하기 위해 Simlab사에서 개발한 로봇 시뮬레이터인 RoboticsLab을 이용해 시뮬레이션을 수행한다.

Illumination variation is the most significant factor affecting face recognition rate. In this paper, we propose adaptive smoothing based on combined most significant bit (CMSB) - plane and local entropy for robust face recognition in varying illumination. Illumination normalization is achieved based on Retinex method. The proposed method has been evaluated based on the CMU PIE database by using Principle Component Analysis (PCA).

In this study, some issues on 3- dimentional object recognition and pose determination are discussed. The method employs a laser projector which projects a cyliderical light beam on the object plane where it produces a bright ring pattern. The picture is then taken by a T.V camera. The ring pattern is mathmetically the ellipse of which the geometrical parameters have the 3-dimentional feature of the object plane. This paper gives the mathematical aspects of 3-dimentional recognition method and shows experimentally the variations of ellipse parameters as the spatial deviation of the plane object.

본 논문에서는 집적영상기술을 이용한 광학적 3D 영상 상관기의 구현 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법에서는 참조 3D 물체와 신호 3D 물체의 요소 영상들이 렌즈 배열을 통하여 얻어지고 이 요소 영상들을 디스플레이 패널에 다시 표시하여 출력 평면에서 광학적으로 고해상도 출력 평면 영상을 얻는다. 이렇게 얻어진 참조 및 신호 물체의 출력 평면 영상에 대하여 상호 상관관계를 수행하여 3D 물체를 인식한다. 제안한 방법은 기존 방법과 비교하여 높은 해상도의 출력 평면 영상을 사용하기 때문에 정확한 3D 물체 인식이 가능하며, 실시간 3D 물체 인식 시스템을 광학적으로 구현할 수 있다. 제안하는 방법의 유용함을 보이기 위하여 광학 실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 보고한다.

An infrared range finder using a self-mixing laser diode (SM-LD), which has been proposed and developed by the Authors, can measure not only a range of a moving target but its velocity simultaneously. In this paper, described is that the precise mode-hop pulse train can be obtained by employing a new signal processing circuit even when the backscattered light returning into the SM-LD is much more weaker. As a result, the distance to a tilted square sheet made from aluminium or white paper, which is placed 10 cm through 60 cm from the SM-LD, is measured with accuracy of a few percent even when the tilting angle is less than 75 degrees or 85 degrees, respectively. And in this paper, described is the range-image recognition of a plane object under the condition of standstill. The output laser beam is scanned by scanning two plane mirrors-equipped with each stepping motor. And we succeeded in the acquisition of the range-image of a plane object in a few tens of seconds. Furthermore, described is a feasibility study about the range-image recognition of a slowly moving plane object.

This paper presents an effective pattern classification model by designing an artificial neural network based pattern classifiers for face recognition. First, a RGB image inputted from a frame grabber is converted into a HSV image which is similar to the human beings' vision system. Then, the coarse facial region is extracted using the hue(H) and saturation(S) components except intensity(V) component which is sensitive to the environmental illumination. Next, the fine facial region extraction process is performed by matching with the edge and gray based templates. To make a light-invariant and qualified facial image, histogram equalization and intensity compensation processing using illumination plane are performed. The finally extracted and enhanced facial images are used for training the pattern classification models. The proposed H-ART2 model which has the hierarchical ART2 layers and F-LVQ model which is optimized by fuzzy membership make it possible to classify facial patterns by optimizing relations of clusters and searching clustered reference patterns effectively. Experimental results show that the proposed face recognition system is as good as the SVM model which is famous for face recognition field in recognition rate and even better in classification speed. Moreover high recognition rate could be acquired by combining the proposed neural classification models.
