Spin images representing efficiently surface features of 3D mesh models have been used to detect facial landmark points. However, at a certain point, different normal direction can lead to quite different spin images. Moreover, since 3D points are projected to the 2D (${\alpha}-{\beta}$) space during spin image generation, surface features cannot be described clearly. In this paper, we present a method to detect 3D facial landmark using improved spin images by partitioning the search area with respect to angle. By generating sub-spin images for angular partitioned 3D spaces, more unique features describing corresponding surfaces can be obtained, and improve the performance of landmark detection. In order to generate spin images robust to inaccurate surface normal direction, we utilize on averaging surface normal with its neighboring normal vectors. The experimental results show that the proposed method increases the accuracy in landmark detection by about 34% over a conventional method.

Recently, Smart plugs for real time monitoring of household appliances based on IoT(Internet of Things) have been activated. Through this, consumers are able to save energy by monitoring real-time energy consumption at all times, and reduce power consumption through alarm function based on consumer setting. In this paper, we measure the alternating current from a wall power outlet for real-time monitoring. At this time, the current pattern for each household appliance was classified and it was experimented with deep learning to determine which product works. As a result, we used a cross validation method and a bootstrap verification method in order to the classification performance according to the type of appliances. Also, it is confirmed that the cost function and the learning success rate are the same as the train data and test data.

In this paper, we proposed SIMT based Image Signal Processor which can apply various image preprocessing algorithms and allow parallel processing of application programs such as image recognition. Conventional ISP has the hard-wired image enhancement algorithm of which the processing speed is fast, but there was difficult to optimize performance depending on various image processing algorithms. The proposed ISP improved the processing time applying SIMT architecture and processed a variety of image processing algorithms as an instruction based processor. We used Xilinx Virtex-7 board and the processing time compared to cell multicore processor, ARM Cortex-A9, ARM Cortex-A15 was reduced by about 71 percent, 63 percent and 33 percent, respectively.

Slotted-ALOHA and Binary-tree method are researched for the anti-collision for RFID system. However, it is required of the rapid recognition time for all tags and the reduction of the system complexity. In this paper. the hybrid anti-collision method is proposed to solve the problems. The RFID reader with the hybrid anti-collision method groups the tags with the number which makes the maximum system throughput, then it reads each group by slotted-ALOHA method. By the computer simulation results, it is found that the hybrid method improves the tag identification time and the system throughput together with the comparison to other anti-collision methods. Therefore, the proposed hybrid anti-collision method will enhance the RFID system performance.

Detecting faces in images with complex backgrounds is a difficult task. Our approach, which obtains state of the art results, is based on a generative neural network model: the Constrained Generative Model (CGM). To detect side view faces and to decrease the number of false alarms, a conditional mixture of networks is used. To decrease the computational time cost, a fast search algorithm is proposed. The level of performance reached, in terms of detection accuracy and processing time, allows to apply this detector to a real word application: the indexation of face images on the Web.

In this paper, we propose a smoker recognition algorithm, detecting smokers in a video sequence in order to prevent fire accidents. We use description-based method in hierarchical approaches to recognize smoker's activity, the algorithm consists of background subtraction, object detection, event search, event judgement. Background subtraction generates slow-motion and fast-motion foreground image from input image using Gaussian mixture model with two different learning-rate. Then, it extracts object locations in the slow-motion image using chain-rule based contour detection. For each object, face is detected by using Haar-like feature and smoke is detected by reflecting frequency and direction of smoke in fast-motion foreground. Hand movements are detected by motion estimation. The algorithm examines the features in a certain interval and infers that whether the object is a smoker. It robustly can detect a smoker among different objects while achieving real-time performance.

This study conducted an overall recognition analysis and demand survey of parent education programs in order to explore ways to promote parent education. Based on previous research, the questionnaire was developed including five factors and 23 items : (1) operating a center to support parent education, (2) perception on parent education programs, (3) developing a parent education program, (4) utilizing space, and (5) program operation and evaluation. A survey was administered on the parents of second and fourth graders at A elementary school in Chungju. The result showed that parents are positive about the operation of the center, which can provide professional support for parent education programs. There was also a great demand to strengthen the educational content of parents' roles. This study is meaningful in providing basic data for developing parent education programs based on the perception and demand analysis of existing parent education. Furthermore, the need for performance analysis and feedback was presented in future research directions after the actual development and operation of parent education programs that reflected the demand of parents.

For pattern recognition for machine learning, the larger the amount of learning data, the better its performance. However, it is not always possible to secure a large amount of learning data with the types and information of patterns that must be detected in daily life. Therefore, it is necessary to significantly inflate a small data set for general machine learning. In this study, we study techniques to augment data so that machine learning can be performed. A representative method of performing machine learning using a small data set is the transfer learning technique. Transfer learning is a method of obtaining a result by performing basic learning with a general-purpose data set and then substituting the target data set into the final stage. In this study, a learning model trained with a general-purpose data set such as ImageNet is used as a feature extraction set using augmented data to detect a desired pattern.

The FCM based hybrid RBF network is a heterogeneous learning network model that applies FCM algorithm between input and middle layer and applies Max_Min algorithm between middle layer and output. The Max-Min neural network uses winner nodes of the middle layer as input but shows inefficient learning in performance when the input vector consists of too many patterns. To overcome this problem, we propose a dynamic learning rate control based on fuzzy logic. The proposed method first classifies accurate/inaccurate class with respect to the difference between target value and output value with threshold and then fuzzy membership function and fuzzy decision logic is designed to control the learning rate dynamically. We apply this proposed RBF network to the character recognition problem and the efficacy of the proposed method is verified in the experiment.
