This paper deals with text-prompt speaker recognition based on dynamic time warping (DTW). The Genetic Algorithm was applied to the creation of reference patterns for suitable reflection of the speaker characteristics, one of the most important determinants in the fields of speaker recognition. In order to overcome the weakness of text-dependent and text-independent speaker recognition, the text-prompt type was suggested. Performed speaker identification and verification in close and open set respectively, hence the Genetic algorithm-based reference patterns had been proven to have better performance in both recognition rate and speed than that of conventional reference patterns.

This paper presents a method using Maximum-Likelihood Linear Regression (MLLR) adaptation to improve recognition performance of Limabeam algorithm for speech recognition using microphone array. From our investigation on Limabeam algorithm, we can see that the performance of filtering optimization depends strongly on the supporting optimal state sequence and this sequence is created by using Viterbi algorithm trained with HMM model. So we propose an approach using MLLR adaptation for the recognition of speech uttered in a new environment to obtain better optimal state sequence that support for the filtering parameters' optimal step. Experimental results show that the system embedded with MLLR adaptation presents the word correct recognition rate 2% higher than that of original calibrate Limabeam and also present 7% higher than that of Delay and Sum algorithm. The best recognition accuracy of 89.4% is obtained when we use 4 microphones with 5 utterances for adaptation.

In this paper, we proposed MLP(MultiLayer Perceptron) based HMM's(Hidden Markov Models) with bounded state duration for isolated word recognition. The minimum and maximum state duration for each state of a HMM are estimated during the training phase and used as parameters of constraining state transition in a recognition phase. The procedure for estimating these parameters and the recognition algorithm using the proposed HMM's are also described. Speaker independent isolated word recognition experiments using a vocabulary of 10 city names and 11 digits indicate that recognition rate can be improved by adjusting the minimum state durations.

Apaptive cintrol of machine tool is aimed to change cutting state satis- factorily without aid of a machine operator, if the cuting state is abnomal such as formation of tangled ribbon type chip, built-up edge and generation of chattering and so on. Among these the recognition of chip type is one of the most important since it has imlications relate to : 1. Safety of operator 2. Stoppage of work due to entanglment in tool and workpiece of chip 3. Problem of producted chip control In this paper the chip type is discriminatied by the pattern recognition technique. It is found that the power spectrum of cutting force for each chip type has it's own special pattern. Linear discriminant function for the recognition of the chip type is obtained by learning process. The discriminant function can be the basis of adaptive control for the rate of success of recognition by pattern recognition technique is at leasthigher than 83%.

Counters for the various kinds of banknotes require high-speed distinctive point extraction and recognition. In this paper we propose a new point extraction and recognition algorithm for Euro banknotes. For distinctive point extraction we use a coordinate data extraction method from specific parts of a banknote representing the same color. To recognize banknotes, we trained 5 neural networks. One is used for inserting direction and the others are used for face value. The algorithm is designed to minimize recognition time by using a minimal amount of recognition data. The simulated results show a high recognition rate and a low training period. The proposed method can be applied to high speed banknote counting machines.

The purpose of this paper is to propose the HMM (hidden markov model) based on multi-observation sequence for the isolated word recognition. The proosed model generates the codebook of MSVQ by dividing each word into several sections followed by dividing training data into several sections. Then, we are to obtain the sequential value of multi-observation per each section by weighting the vectors of distance form lower values to higher ones. Thereafter, this the sequential with high probability value while in recognition. 146 DDD area names are selected as the vocabularies for the target recognition, and 10LPC cepstrum coefficients are used as the feature parameters. Besides the speech recognition experiments by way of the proposed model, for the comparison with it, the experiments by DP, MSVQ, and genral HMM are made with the same data under the same condition. The experiment results have shown that HMM based on multi-observation sequence proposed in this paper is proved superior to any other methods such as the ones using DP, MSVQ and general HMM models in recognition rate and time.

In this paper, we propose a robust speech recognition system under noisy environments. Since the presence of noise severely degrades the performance of speech recognition system, it is important to design the robust speech recognition method against noise. The proposed method adopts a new distance measure technique based on stochastic probability instead of conventional method using minimum error. For evaluating the performance of the proposed method, we compared it with conventional distance measure for the 10-isolated Korean digits with car noise. Here, the proposed method showed better recognition rate than conventional distance measure for the various car noisy environments.

Gait recognition, as a promising biometric, can be used in video-based surveillance and other security systems. However, due to the complexity of leg movement and the difference of external sampling conditions, gait recognition still faces many problems to be addressed. In this paper, an improved convolutional neural network (CNN) based on Gabor filter is therefore proposed to achieve gait recognition. Firstly, a gait feature extraction layer based on Gabor filter is inserted into the traditional CNNs, which is used to extract gait features from gait silhouette images. Then, in the process of gait classification, using the output of CNN as input, we utilize metric learning techniques to calculate distance between two gaits and achieve gait classification by k-nearest neighbors classifiers. Finally, several experiments are conducted on two open-accessed gait datasets and demonstrate that our method reaches state-of-the-art performances in terms of correct recognition rate on the OULP and CASIA-B datasets.

The process of character recognition goes through 5 steps; image acquisition, character region extraction, preprocessing, character region segmentation, character recognition. Therefore the final recognition rate of character recognition is directly affected by the performance of each step. This paper is a leading research for object recognition using image processing algorithm which is one of the field of study in computer vision. And this paper will suggest an algorithm to extract the portion of number chain, which is part of the research embodying a system to perceive the data of manufacture and the name of the producer on the wrapping of groceries. In addition, this can extract the number chain comparatively accurate without using many complex algorithm by diving and extracting the moving number region at the same time.

In this paper, we propose the non-contact gesture recognition system and algorithm using proximity-based sensors. The system uses four IR receiving photodiode embedded on a single chip and an IR LED for small area. The goal of this paper is to use the proposed algorithm to solve the problem associated with bringing the four IR receivers close to each other and to implement a gesture sensor capable of recognizing eight directional gestures from a distance of 10cm and above. The proposed system was implemented on a FPGA board using Verilog HDL with Android host board. As a result of the implementation, a 2-D swipe gesture of fingers and palms of 3cm and 15cm width was recognized, and a recognition rate of more than 97% was achieved under various conditions. The proposed system is a low-power and non-contact HMI system that recognizes a simple but accurate motion. It can be used as an auxiliary interface to use simple functions such as calls, music, and games for portable devices using batteries.
