This paper presents a panorama background generation and object tracking technique using a Pan-Tilt-Zoom camera. The proposed method estimates local motion vectors rapidly using phase correlation matching at the prespecified multiple local regions, and it makes minimized estimation error by vector quantization. We obtain the required image patches, by estimating the overlapped region using local motion vectors, we can then project the images to cylinder and realign the images to make the panoramic image. The object tracking is performed by extracting object's motion and by separating foreground from input image using background subtraction. The proposed PTZ-based object tracking method can efficiently generated a stable panorama background, which covers up to 360 degree FOV The proposed algorithm is designed for real-time implementation and it can be applied to many commercial applications such as object shape detection and face recognition in various surveillance video systems.

A hardware implementation of MOD(moving object detection) algorithm using EGML(effective Gaussian mixture learning)- based background subtraction to detect moving objects in video is described. Some approximations of EGML calculations are applied to reduce hardware complexity, and pipelining technique is adopted to improve operating speed. The MOD processor designed in Verilog-HDL has been verified by FPGA-in-the-loop verification using MATLAB/Simulink. The MOD processor has 2,218 slices on the Virtex5-XC5VSX95T FPGA device and its throughput is 102 MSamples/s at 102 MHz clock frequency. Evaluation results of the MOD processor for 12 images in the IEEE CDW-2012 dataset show that the average recall value is 0.7631, the average precision value is 0.7778 and the average F-measure value is 0.7535.

This paper presents development of a three-dimensional marine controlled-source electromagnetic (mCSEM) modeling algorithm and its application to a salt and reservoir model to examine detectability of mCSEM for a reservoir under complex subsurface structures. The algorithm is based on the finite difference method, and employs the secondary field formulation for an accurate and fast calculation of modeling responses. The algorithm is verified for a two-layer model by comparing solutions not only with analytic solutions but also with those from other 3D modeling algorithm. We calculate and analyze electric and magnetic fields and their normalized responses for a salt and reservoir model due to three sources located at boundaries between a salt, a reservoir, and background. Numbers and positions of resistive anomalies are informed by normalized responses for three sources, and types of resistive anomalies can be informed when there is a priori information about a salt by seismic exploration.

In this paper, we propose a Real-time Interactive Shadow Avatar(RISA) which can express facial emotions changing as response of user's gestures. The avatar's shape is a virtual Shadow constructed from the real-time sampled picture of user's shape. Several predefined facial animations overlap on the face area of the virtual Shadow, according to the types of hand gestures. We use the background subtraction method to separate the virtual Shadow, and a simplified region-based tracking method is adopted for tracking hand positions and detecting hand gestures. In order to express smooth change of emotions, we use a refined morphing method which uses many more frames in contrast with traditional dynamic emoticons. RISA can be directly applied to the area of interface media arts and we expect the detecting scheme of RISA would be utilized as an alternative media interface for DMB and camera phones which need simple input devices, in the near future.

In this paper we present a facial region detection algorithm for real-time image with complex background and various illumination using spatial and temporal methods. For Detecting Human region It used summation of Edge-Difference Image between continuous image sequences. Then, Detected facial candidate region is vertically divided two objected. Non facial region is reduced using Analysis of Major Color Component. Non facial region has not available Major Color Component. And then, Background is reduced using boundary information. Finally, The Facial region is detected through horizontal, vertical projection of Images. The experiments show that the proposed algorithm can detect robustly facial region with complex background various illumination images.

This paper proposes real time object detection and tracking algorithm that can be applied to security and supervisory system field. A proposed system is devide into object detection phase and object tracking phase. In object detection, we suggest Adaptive background subtraction method and Adaptive block based model which are advanced motion detecting methods to detect exact object motions. In object tracking, we design a multiple vehicle tracking system based on Kalman filtering. As a result of experiment, motion of moving object can be estimated. the result of tracking multipul object was not lost and object was tracked correctly. Also, we obtained improved result from long range detection and tracking.

This paper describes the design and implementation of fall-down detection algorithm based on image processing. The fall-down detection algorithm separates objects by using background subtraction and binarization after grayscale conversion of the input image acquired by the camera, and recognizes the human body by using labeling operation. The recognized human body can be monitored on the display image, and an alarm is generated when fall-down is detected. By using computer simulation, the proposed algorithm has shown a detection rate of 90%. We verify the feasibility of the proposed system by verifying the function by using the prototype test implemented on the DSP image processing board.

A privacy model is a technique that quantitatively restricts the possibility and degree of privacy breaches through privacy attacks. Representative models include k-anonymity, l-diversity, t-closeness, and differential privacy. While many privacy models have been studied, research on selecting the most suitable model for a given dataset has been relatively limited. In this study, we develop a system for recommending the suitable privacy model to prevent privacy breaches. To achieve this, we analyze the data features that need to be considered when selecting a model, such as data type, distribution, frequency, and range. Based on privacy model background knowledge that includes information about the relationships between data features and models, we recommend the most appropriate model. Finally, we validate the feasibility and usefulness by implementing a recommendation prototype system.

In this study, we propose the design of optimized pRBFNNs-based face recognition system using two-dimensional Image and ASM algorithm. usually the existing 2 dimensional face recognition methods have the effects of the scale change of the image, position variation or the backgrounds of an image. In this paper, the face region information obtained from the detected face region is used for the compensation of these defects. In this paper, we use a CCD camera to obtain a picture frame directly. By using histogram equalization method, we can partially enhance the distorted image influenced by natural as well as artificial illumination. AdaBoost algorithm is used for the detection of face image between face and non-face image area. We can butt up personal profile by extracting the both face contour and shape using ASM(Active Shape Model) and then reduce dimension of image data using PCA. The proposed pRBFNNs consists of three functional modules such as the condition part, the conclusion part, and the inference part. In the condition part of fuzzy rules, input space is partitioned with Fuzzy C-Means clustering. In the conclusion part of rules, the connection weight of RBFNNs is represented as three kinds of polynomials such as constant, linear, and quadratic. The essential design parameters (including learning rate, momentum coefficient and fuzzification coefficient) of the networks are optimized by means of Differential Evolution. The proposed pRBFNNs are applied to real-time face image database and then demonstrated from viewpoint of the output performance and recognition rate.

This paper considers the historical background of the emergence of 'thinking-machine,' that has changed the ontological statue of human and machine. In particular, British mathematician Charles Babbage's Calculating Engines is examined as a material iteration of thinking-machine, focusing on the discursive process by which thought is not the faculty of human, but the function of machine. In Chapter II, I review the dualism of René Descartes who denied the possibility of machine intelligence by separating the substance of body and mind. In Chapter III, Babbage's philosophical assertions which emphasized the function of human associated with thought by rejecting the fundamental opposition between human and machine. Therefore, this paper verifies that the conception of 'thinking-machine' essentially causes the reorganization and reformulation of concepts involved with human identity, and provides the sophisticated sources to prepare new perspective on the artificial technology nowadays.
