In this paper, a fast stereo matching algorithm based on pixel-wise matching strategy, which can get a stable and accurate disparity map, is proposed. Since a stereo image pair has small differences each other and the differences between left and right images are just caused by horizontal shifts with some order, the matching using a large window will not be needed within a given search range. However, disparity results of conventional pixel-based matching methods are somewhat unstable and wrinkled, the principal direction of disparities is checked by the accumulated cost along a path on array with the dynamic programming method. Experimental results showed that the proposed method could remove almost all disparity noise and set a good quality disparity map in very short time.

In the mobile service environment, patterns generated by temporal synchronization are streamed with different instance values. This paper proposed a variable clustering management method, which manages multiple data streaming dynamically, to support flexible clustering. The method manages synchronization effectively and differently with conventional streaming methods in data streaming environment and manages clustering streaming after the structural presentation level and the fitness presentation level. In the structural presentation level, the stream structure is presented using level matching and accumulation matching, and clustering management is carried out by the management of dynamic segment and static segment. The performance of the proposed method is tested by using k-means method, C/S server method, CDN method, and simulation. The test results showed that the proposed method has better performance than the other methods.

In this paper, we describes the boxing motion recognition which is used in the part of games, animation. To recognize the boxing motion, we have used two algorithms, one is principle component analysis, the other is dynamic time warping algorithm. PCA is the simplest of the true eigenvector-based multivariate analyses and often used to reduce multidimensional data sets to lower dimensions for analysis. DTW is an algorithm for measuring similarity between two sequences which may vary in time or speed. We introduce and compare PCA and DTW algorithms respectively. We implemented the recognition of boxing motion on the motion capture system which is developed in out research, and depict the system also. The motion graph will be created by boxing motion data which is acquired from motion capture system, and will be normalized in a process. The result has implemented in the motion recognition system with five actors, and showed the performance of the recognition.

In this paper, to merge whole 3D information of an occluded body from view point, the new image merging algorithm is introduced after obtaining images of body on the turn table from 4 directions. The two images represented by polygon meshes are merged using weight bipartite matching method with different weights according to coordinates and axes based on minimum distance since two images merged don't present abrupt variation of 3D coordinates and scan direction is one direction. To obtain entire 3D information of body, these steps are repeated 3 times since the obtained images are 4. This proposed method has advantage 200 - 300% searching time reduction rather than conventional branch and bound, dynamic programming, and hungarian method though the matching accuracy rate is a little bit less than these methods.

Handwriting verification is a technique of distinguishing the same person's handwriting specimen from imitations with any two or more texts using one's handwriting individuality. This paper suggests an effective verification method for the handwritten signature or text on the off-line environment using pattern recognition technology. The core processes of the method which has been researched in this paper are extraction of letter area, extraction of features employing structural characteristics of handwritten text, feature analysis employing DTW(Dynamic Time Warping) algorithm and PCA(Principal Component Analysis). The experimental results show a superior performance of the suggested method.

3D surface reconstruction is to make the original geometry of 3D objects from 2D geometric information. Barequet's algorithm is well known and most widely used in surface reconstruction. It tiles matched regions first, then triangulates clefts using dynamic programming. However it takes considerably long processing time while manipulating complex model. Our method tiles a simple region that does not have branches along minimally distant vertex pairs at once. When there are branches, our method divides contour lines into a simple region and clefts. We propose a fast and simple method that calculates medial axes using a minimum distance in cleft region. Experimental results show that our method can produce accurate models than the previous method within short time.

Generally, stereo matching methods are used to estimate depth information based on color and spatial similarity. However, most depth estimation methods suffer from the occlusion region because occlusion regions cause inaccurate depth information. Moreover, they do not consider the temporal dimension when estimating the disparity. In this paper, we propose a temporal stereo matching method, considering occlusion and disregarding inaccurate temporal depth information. First, we apply a global stereo matching algorithm to estimate the depth information, we segment the image to occlusion and non-occlusion regions. After occlusion detection, we fill the occluded region with a reasonable disparity value that are obtained from neighboring pixels of the current pixel. Then, we apply a temporal disparity estimation method using the reliable information. Experimental results show that our method detects more accurate occlusion regions, compared to a conventional method. The proposed method increases the temporal consistency of estimated disparity maps and outperforms per-frame methods in noisy images.

User adaptive services have been important features in many applications. To provide such services, various techniques with various kinds of data are being used. In this paper, we propose a method to analyze user's past moving paths for predicting the goal position and the path to the goal by observing the user's current moving path. We develop a spatio-temporal similarity measure between paths. We choose a past path which is the most similar to the current path using the similarity. Based on the chosen path, user's spatio-temporal position is estimated. Through experiments we confirm this method is useful and effective.

We will introduce speech/speaker recognition algorithm for the isolated word. In general case of speaker verification, Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) is used to model the feature vectors of reference speech signals. On the other hand, Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) based template matching technique was proposed for the isolated word recognition in several years ago. We combine these two different concepts in a single method and then implement in a real time speaker/speech recognition system. Using our proposed method, it is guaranteed that a small number of reference speeches (5 or 6 times training) are enough to make reference model to satisfy 90% of recognition performance.
