  • Gartner predicts that by 2012, 40% of EA programs will be stopped due to poor execution and the failure of delivering business value. An organization needs a practical solution to achieve an EA vision. The EA essential approach should be that of business service and process orientation than systems and IT orientation. We propose an Actionable Enterprise Architecture (AEA) which is based on BPM (Business Process Management) and SOA (Service Oriented Architecture), and connected to service & process orientation and engineering. The architecture proposed provides traceability between service-oriented enterprise architecture and its solution. The proposed architecture can transform enterprise architecture from conceptual to physical levels (solutions) with a service and business process paradigm.

  • This paper shows that a system with two-link arm can obtain hand reaching movement to a target object projected on a visual sensor by reinforcement learning using a layered neural network. The reinforcement signal, which is an only signal from the environment, is given to the system only when the hand reaches the target object. The neural network computes two joint torques from visual sensory signals, joint angles, and joint angular velocities considering the urn dynamics. It is known that the trajectory of the voluntary movement o( human hand reaching is almost straight, and the hand velocity changes like bell-shape. Although there are some exceptions, the properties of the trajectories obtained by the reinforcement learning are somewhat similar to the experimental result of the human hand reaching movement.

  • With promising results and enormous capability, deep learning technology has attracted more and more attention to both theoretical research and applications for a variety of image processing and computer vision tasks. In this paper, we investigate 32 research contributions that apply deep learning techniques to the agriculture domain. Different types of deep neural network architectures in agriculture are surveyed and the current state-of-the-art methods are summarized. This paper ends with a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of deep learning and future research topics. The survey shows that deep learning-based research has superior performance in terms of accuracy, which is beyond the standard machine learning techniques nowadays.

  • Mobile cellular technology is evolving to accommodate a variety of vertical services, expanding the application from human-to-human communication to the Internet of Things(IoT). In particular, the fourth industrial revolution, bringing in a new vision in future smart factory, necessitates a new paradigm shift in wireless communication. Low latency and high reliability is a key issue in wireless applications for industrial IoT such as factory automation. In this paper, we review the recent progress in 5G URLLC (Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communication) and discuss use cases, requirements, challenging technical issues, and potential solutions to support wireless factory automation such as discrete automation and process automation.

  • 본 논문에서는 커널 기반 객체 추적 방식을 이용하여 실시간으로 객체를 추적하는 기술에서 객체의 크기 추정에 대한 기존 연구를 비교 분석한다. 커널 기반 객체 추적은 추적하고자 하는 객체를 초기 프레임에서 타켓으로 설정한 후, 각 프레임마다 타켓 후보들을 제시하고 그 중 가장 객체와 유사한 후보에 초점을 맞춰가며 객체를 추적한다. 이때, 목표 객체와 객체 후보간 유사성을 기반으로 정의된 배경 영사 영상(back-projection image)을 이용하여 객체의 크기를 추정하는 방법들이 제시되고 있다. 안정적인 객체 크기 추정 방법의 설계를 위한 사전 연구로서 대표적인 객체 크기 추정 기존 연구를 비교, 분석하고자 한다.

  • This paper presents a new benchmark system for visual odometry (VO) and monocular depth estimation (MDE). As deep learning has become a key technology in computer vision, many researchers are trying to apply deep learning to VO and MDE. Just a couple of years ago, they were independently studied in a supervised way, but now they are coupled and trained together in an unsupervised way. However, before designing fancy models and losses, we have to customize datasets to use them for training and testing. After training, the model has to be compared with the existing models, which is also a huge burden. The benchmark provides input dataset ready-to-use for VO and MDE research in 'tfrecords' format and output dataset that includes model checkpoints and inference results of the existing models. It also provides various tools for data formatting, training, and evaluation. In the experiments, the exsiting models were evaluated to verify their performances presented in the corresponding papers and we found that the evaluation result is inferior to the presented performances.

  • Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) show high performance in computer vision tasks including object detection, but a lot of weight storage and computation is required. In this paper, a pruning scheme is applied to CNNs for object detection, which can remove much amount of weights with a negligible performance degradation. Contrary to the previous ones, the pruning scheme applied in this paper considers the base accelerator architecture. With the consideration, the pruned CNNs can be efficiently performed on an ASIC or FPGA accelerator. Even with the constrained pruning, the resulting CNN shows a negligible degradation of detection performance, less-than-1% point degradation of mAP on VOD0712 test set. With the proposed scheme, CNNs can be applied to objection dtection efficiently.

  • Image processing is one of the major techniques that are used for computer vision. Nowadays, researchers are using machine learning and deep learning for the aforementioned task. In recent years, digit recognition tasks, i.e., automatic meter recognition approach using electric or water meters, have been studied several times. However, two major issues arise when we talk about previous studies: first, the use of the deep learning technique, which includes a large number of parameters that increase the computational cost and consume more power; and second, recent studies are limited to the detection of digits and not storing or providing detected digits to a database or mobile applications. This paper proposes a system that can detect the digital number of meter readings using a lightweight deep neural network (DNN) for low power consumption and send those digits to an Android mobile application in real-time to store them and make life easy. The proposed lightweight DNN is computationally inexpensive and exhibits accuracy similar to those of conventional DNNs.
