본 논문에서는 실린더 모델을 이용하여 머리의 다양한 포즈 변화와 조명 변화에 대해 강인한 얼굴 인식을 제안하고자 한다. 실린더 모델은 사람의 머리가 실린더 모양과 유사하고 그 표면은 얼굴에 해당된다고 가정한다. 실린더 모델은 6가지의 모션 파라메터를 따라 움직이며 Lucas-Kanade 알고리즘에 의해 모션 파라메터의 양을 결정한다. 강인한 동작을 위해 템플릿을 지속적으로 바꿔주는 동적 템플릿(dynamic template)방법과 그에 따른 에러가 누적되는 것을 막기 위해 re-registration방법을 사용한다. 조명 문제를 해결하기 위해 템플릿에서 조명 주성분 벡터를 추출하여 제거하는 방법으로 조명 효과를 제거한다. 실험에서는 다양한 포즈 변화와 조명 변화가 반영된 얼굴 데이터베이스를 구축하고 추출한 텍스쳐 맵(texture map image)을 SVM에 적용함으로서 포즈, 조명 변화에 강인한 얼굴인식을 보인다.

A high performance object recognition algorithm using Fourier description of the 3D information of the objects is proposed. Object boundaries contain sufficient information for recognition in most of objects. However, it is not well utilized as the key solution of the object recognition since obtaining the accurate boundary information is not easy. Also, object boundaries vary highly depending on the size or orientation of object. The proposed object recognition algorithm is based on 1) the accurate object boundaries extracted from the 3D shape which is obtained by the laser scan device, and 2) reduction of the required database using the size and rotational invariant feature of the Fourier Descriptor. Such Fourier information is compared with the database and the recognition is done by selecting the best matching object. The experiments have been done on the rich database of MPEG 7 Part B.

In this paper, we propose improved method to recognize the shape for enhancing the quality of the pattern recognition system by compressing the source images. In the proposed method, we reduced the data amount by skeletonizing the source images using mathematical morphology, and then matched patterns after accomplishing the translation and scale normalization, and rotation invariance on the transformed images. Through the scale normalization, it was possible for the shape recognition at minimum amount of the pixel by giving the weight to the skeleton pixel. As the source images was replaced by the skeleton images, it was possible to reduce the amount of data and computational loads dramatically, and so become much faster even with a smaller memory capacity. Through the experiment, we investigated the optimum scale factor and good result was proved when realizing the pattern recognition system.

In this paper we mose a new scheme for recognition of deformed letters by extracting feature vectors based on Gibbs distributions which are well suited for representing the spatial continuity. The extracted feature vectors are comprised of 2-D conditional moments which are invariant under translation, rotation, and scale of an image. The Algorithm for pattern recognition of deformed letters contains two parts: the extraction of feature vector and the recognition process. (i) We extract feature vector which consists of an improved 2-D conditional moments on the basis of estimated conditional Gibbs distribution for an image. (ii) In the recognition phase, the minimization of the discrimination cost function for a deformed letters determines the corresponding template pattern. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme, recognition experiments with a generated document was conducted. on Workstation. Experiment results reveal that the proposed scheme has high recognition rate over 96%.

This paper proposes an AVI system which recognizes the license plate and the driver's face simultaneously using passive AVI techniques. For this, firstly, the pro-processing algorithm independent of the environment is proposed and region extraction of the car number plate and the driver's face is described. Secondly, characters are separated and recognition parameters are extracted from target regions. Thirdly, template matching of car number plate is performed and the fuzzy relation matrix of driver face is made for the final recognition processes. The merits of the proposed system are following : Pre-processing is accomplished regardless of the environment. The application areas of conventional AVI system can be expanded in the content that the driver's face is also recognized in the proposed system compared with only the number plast is recognized in the existing systems.

Multi layer neural network using backpropagation learning algorithm is used to achieve identification and orientation estimation of different classes of aircraft in the variety of 3-D orientations. In-plane distortion invarient$(L,\;{\Phi})$ feature was extracted from each aircraft image to be used for training neural network aircraft classifier. For aircraft identification the optimum structure of the neural network classifier is studied to obtain high classification performance. Effective reductioin of learning time was achieved by using modified backpropagation learning algorithm and varying, learning parameters.

본 논문은 구조적 매칭 접근 방법이 회전과 변이에 얼마나 효과적인가를 보여준다. 이는 지문에서 보여주는 특징적 요소들 (코아, 델타 그리고 분기점) 사이의 거리와 각도들을 이용한다. 실제로 이 접근 방법은 회전과 변이가 허용된 한 입력 지문에 대해서 짧은 시간 내에 간단한 연산만으로도 높은 매칭 성공률을 보여준다. 또한 현 자동화된 지문인식 시스템에서처럼 한 입력지문에 대해서 데이터베이스에서 최종 유력한 지문 10개를 검색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 표본은 600명의 서로 다른 사람으로부터 채취된 지문을 4가지로 (궁상문, 우제상문, 좌제상문, 와상문) 분류한 각각에 대해서 약 98%의 매칭 성공률을 가진다. 실험은 150MHz, 586 퍼스널 컴퓨터에서 실행되었다.

In this paper, we applied the high-performance PGAP(Parallel Genetic Algorithm Processor) to recognizing rotated pattern. In order to perform this research efficiently, we used Multi-PGAP system consisted of four PGAP. In addition, we used mental rotation based on the rotated pattern recognition mechanism of human to reduce the number of operation. Also, we experimented with distinguishing specific pattern from similar coin patterns and determine rotated angle between patterns. The result showed that the development of future artificial recognition system is feasible by employing high performance PGAPS.

This paper describes an approach for extracting invariant features using a view-based representation and recognizing an object with a high speed search method in FLIR. In this paper, we use a reformulated eigenspace technique based on robust estimation for extracting features which are robust for outlier such as noise and clutter. After extracting feature, we recognize an object using a partial distance search method for calculating Euclidean distance. The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves the improvement of recognition rate compared with standard PCA.

최근 들어 컴퓨터와 네트워크의 발전에 기인하여 일상업무의 대부분을 컴퓨터를 이용하여 할 수 있으므로 신원 확인은 중요한 분야로 부상되었으며, 지문은 편리한 입력과 종생불변하고 만인부동한 특성으로 생체 측정 분야 중 가장 각광받고 있는 분야가 되었다. 지문은 입력 방법에 따라 중심점과 삼각주를 전부 취득하는 회전 지문과 손가락을 회전하지 않고 취득한 평면 지문으로 나뉜다. 지문 인식 기술은 특징점 추출과 분류 그리고 매칭으로 나뉘는 AFIS에 이용되는 기술과 분류기술은 생략할 수 있는 검증 기술이 있는 데 본 논문에서는 AFIE에 관련된 전반적인 기술에 관하여 기술한다.
