This paper presents an automatic approach to detect face and facial feature from face images based on the color information and deformable model. Skin color information has been widely used for face and facial feature diction since it is effective for object recognition and has less computational burden, In this paper, we propose how to compensates varying light condition and utilize the transformed YCbCr color model to detect candidates region of face and facial feature from color images, Moreover, the detected face facial feature areas are subsequently assigned to a initial condition of active contour model to extract optimal boundaries of face and facial feature by resolving initial boundary problem when the active contour is used, The experimental results show the efficiency of the proposed method, The face and facial feature information will be used for face recognition and facial feature descriptor.

This paper presents a methodology to extract classes and inheritance relations from procedural software. The methodology is based on the idea of generating all groups of class candidates, based on the combinatorial groups of object candidates, and their inheritance with all possible combinations and selecting a group of object candidates, and their inheritance with all possible combinations and selecting a group with the best or optimal combination of candidates with respect to the degree of relativity and similarity between class candidates in the group and classes in a domain model. The methodology has innovative features in class candidates in the group and classes in a domain model. The methodology has innovative features in class and inheritance extraction: a clustering method based on both static (attribute) and dynamic (method) clustering, the combinatorial cases of grouping class candidate cases based on abstraction, a signature similarity measurement for inheritance relations among n class candidates or m classes, two-dimensional similarity measurement for inheritance relations among n class candidates or m classes, two-dimensional similarity measurement, that is, the horizontal measurement for overall group similarity between n class candidates and m classes, and the vertical measurement for specific similarity between a set of classes in a group of class candidates and a set of classes with the same class hierarchy in a domain model, etc. This methodology provides reengineering experts with a comprehensive and integrated environment to select the best or optimal group of class candidates.

In this paper, we propose a sequence of method which extrats ROIs(Region of Interests) rapidly from the parcel image of large size. In the proposed method, original image is spilt into the small masks, and the meaningful masks, the ROIs, are extracted by two criterions sequentially The first criterion is difference of pixel value between Inner points, and the second is deviation of it. After processing, some informational ROIs-the areas of bar code, characters, label and the outline of object-are acquired. Using diagonal axis of each ROI and the feature of various 2D bar code, the area of 2D bar code can be extracted from the ROIs. From an experiment using above methods, various ROIs are extracted less than 200msec from large-size parcel image, and 2D bar code region is selected by the accuracy of 100％.

We proposed an enhanced extraction method of vehicle plate, in which both the brightness variation of gray and the Hue value of HSI color model were used. For the extraction of the vehicle plate from a vehicle image, first of all, candidate regions for the vehicle plate were extracted from the image by using the property of brightness variation of the image. A real place region was determined among candidate regions by the density of pixels with the Hue value of green and white. For- extracting the feature area containing characters from the extracted vehicle plate, we used the histogram-based approach of individual characters. And we proposed and applied for the recognition of characters the enhanced ART2 algorithm which support the dynamical establishment of the vigilance threshold with the genera]iced union operator of Yager. In addition, we propose an enhanced SOSL algorithm which is integrated both enhanced ART2 and supervised learning methods. The performance evaluation was performed using 100's real vehicle images and the evaluation results demonstrated that the extraction rates of tole proposed extraction method were improved, compared with that of previous methods based un brightness variation, RGB and HSI individually . Furthermore, the recognition rates of the proposed algorithms were improved much more than that of the conventional ART2 and BP algorithms.

didates.본 논문은 절차 중심 소프트웨어를 객체 지향 소프트웨어로 재/역공학하기 위한 다단계 절차중 첫 절차인 객체 추출 절차에 대하여 기술한다. 사용한 객체 추출 방법은 전처리, 기본 분할 및 결합, 정제 결합, 결정 및 통합의 다섯 단계로 이루어진다 : 1) 전처리 과정에서는 객체 추출을 위한 FTV(Function, Type, Variable) 그래프를 생성/분할 및 클러스터링하고, 2) 기본 분할 및 결합 단계에서는 다중 객체 추출을 위한 그래프를 생성하고 생성된 그래프의 정적 객체를 추출하며, 3) 정제 결합 단계에서는 동적 객체를 추출하며, 4) 결정 단계에서는 영역 모델링과 다중 객체 후보군과의 유사도를 측정하여 영역 전문가가 하나의 최적합 후보를 선택할 수 있는 측정 결과를 제시하며, 5) 통합 단계에서는 전처리 과정에서 분리된 그래프가 여러 개 존재할 경우 각각의 처리된 그래프를 통합한다. 본 논문에서는 클러스터링 순서가 고정된 결정론적 방법을 사용하였으며, 가능한 경우의 수에 따른 다중 객체 후보, 객관적이고 의미가 있는 객체 추출 방법으로의 정제와 결정, 영역 모델링을 통한 의미적 관점에 기초한 방법 등을 사용한다. 이러한 방법을 사용함으로써 전문가는 객체 추출 단계에서 좀더 다양하고 객관적인 선택을 할 수 있다.Abstract This paper presents an object extraction process, which is the first phase of a methodology to transform procedural software to object-oriented software. The process consists of five steps: the preliminary, basic clustering & inclusion, refinement, decision and integration. In the preliminary step, FTV(Function, Type, Variable) graph for object extraction is created, divided and clustered. In the clustering & inclusion step, multiple graphs for static object candidate groups are generated. In the refinement step, each graph is refined to determine dynamic object candidate groups. In the decision step, the best candidate group is determined based on the highest similarity to class group modeled from domain engineering. In the final step, the best group is integrated with the domain model. The paper presents a new clustering method based on static clustering steps, possible object candidate grouping cases based on abstraction concept, a new refinement algorithm, a similarity algorithm for multiple n object and m classes, etc. This process provides reengineering experts an comprehensive and integrated environment to select the best or optimal object candidates.

This paper proposed a new algorithm for binarization and removal of noises in color images with characters and pictures. Binarization was performed by threshold which had computed with color-relationship relative to the number of pixel in background and character candidates and pre-threshold for dividing of background and character candidates in input images. The pre-threshold has been computed by the histogram of R, G, B In respect of the images, while background and character candidates of input images are divided by the above pre-threshold. As it is possible that threshold can be dynamically decided by the quantity of the noises, and the character images are maintained and the noises are removed to the maximum. And, in this study, we made the noise pattern table as a result of analysis in noise pattern included in the various color images aiming at removal of the noises from the Images. Noises included in the images can figure out Distribution by way of the noise pattern table and pattern matching itself. And then this Distribution classified difficulty of noises included in the images into the three categories. As removal of noises in the images is processed through different procedure according to the its classified difficulties, time required for process was reduced and efficiency of noise removal was improved. As a result of recognition experiments in respect of extracted characters in color images by way of the proposed algorithm, we conformed that the proposed algorithm is useful in a sense that it obtained the recognition rate in general documents without colors and pictures to the same level.

핸드오프 영역내에 정해진 RSS(Radio signal strength)에서 핸드오프를 시행하는 기존의 정적 핸드오프방식은 셀룰러 네트워크에서 제어신호가 증가하여 전송지연을 유발한다. 그러므로 핸드오프 수를 줄이는 방안으로 SPPQ(Signal Prediction Priority Queuing)에 기반한 동적 핸드오프를 제안한다.SPPQ는 RSS에 근거하여 선형적으로 핸드오프의 가능성을 예측한 후, 핸드오프 순서를 결정하는 알고리즘이다. 이 때 실제 속도와 호의 위치 분포는 일정하다고 가정하고 RSS에 대한 $\Delta$RSS(신호 세기의 증감)을 이용한다. SPPQ는 핸드오프 결정을 위해 선형적으로 RSS를 예측하며, 시간 구간에서 구한 시그널 평균을 사용한다. 그리고 두 개의 가장 최근 평균 RSS 측정값에 의해 표현되는 선형 방정식이 시간 축과 만나는 교차점을 핸드오프 예상시점으로 결정한다. 이때 각 핸드오프 후보 단말들의 threshold는 다르게 줄 수 있으며 그에 따라 우선순위를 결정한다. 이 우선순위를 기본으로 하여, 핑퐁효과로 인한 불필요한 핸드오프를 줄일 수 있도록 표본화 시간 $\Delta$t만큼 핸드오프를 낮춰 SPPQ의 성능을 높인다.

This paper proposed a recognition method of english calling card using both 4-directed contour tracking algorithm and enhanced ART1 algorithm. After we extract candidate character string region using horizontal smearing and 4-directed contour tracking method, we extract character string region through comparison of character region and non-character region using horizontal and vertical ratio and area in english calling card. In extracted character string region, we extract each character using horizontal smearing and contour tracking algorithm, and recognize each character by enhanced ART1 algorithm. The proposed ART1 algorithm is enhanced by dynamic control of similarity using fuzzy sum connective operator. The result indicate that the proposed method is superior in performance.
