본 논문은 베이지안 비음수 행렬 인수분해 (Bayesian nonnegative matrix factorization, BNMF) 기반의 음성 강화 기법에서 음성과 잡음 성분의 latent source 수에 따른 강화성능에 대해 서술한다. BNMF 기반의 음성 강화 기법은 입력 신호를 서브 신호들의 합으로 분해한 후, 잡음 성분을 제거하는 방식으로 그 성능이 기존의 NMF 기반의 방법들보다 우수한 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 많은 계산량과 latent source 의 수에 따라 성능의 차이가 있다는 단점이 있다. 이러한 단점을 개선하기 위해 본 논문에서는 BNMF 기반의 음성 강화 기법에서 최적의 latent source 개수를 찾기 위한 실험을 진행하였다. 실험은 잡음의 종류, 음성의 종류, 음성과 잡음의 latent source 의 개수, 그리고 SNR 을 바꿔가며 진행하였고, 성능 평가 방법으로 PESQ (perceptual evaluation of speech quality) 를 이용하였다. 실험 결과, 음성의 latent source 개수는 성능에 영향을 주지 않지만, 잡음의 latent source 개수는 많을수록 성능이 좋은 것으로 확인되었다.

With the increased use of the internet and the tremendous amount of data it transfers, it is more necessary to summarize documents. We propose a new method using the Non-negative Semantic Variable Matrix (NSVM) and the generic important of semantic features obtained by Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) to extract the sentences for automatic generic summarization. The proposed method use non-negative constraints which is more similar to the human's cognition process. As a result, the proposed method selects more meaningful sentences for summarization than the unsupervised method used the Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) or clustering methods. The experimental results show that the proposed method archives better performance than other methods.

얼굴 영상에서 구성요소(눈썹, 눈, 코, 입 등)의 존재에 따라 보는 사람의 얼굴 인식 정확도는 큰 영향을 받는다. 이는 인간의 뇌에서 얼굴 정보를 처리하는 과정은 얼굴 전체 영역 뿐만 아니라, 부분적인 얼굴 구성요소의 특징들도 고려함을 말한다. 비음수 행렬 분해(NMF: Non-negative Matrix Factorization)는 이러한 얼굴 영역에서 부분적인 특징들을 잘 표현하는 기저영상들을 찾아내는데 효과적임을 보여주었으나, 각 기저영상들의 중요도는 알 수 없었다. 본 논문에서는 NMF로 찾아진 기저영상들에 대응되는 인코딩 정보를 SLR(Sparse Logistic Regression)을 이용하여 성별 인식에 중요한 부분 영역들을 찾고자 한다. 실험에서는 주성분분석(PCA)과 비교를 통해 NMF를 이용한 기저영상 및 특징 벡터 추출이 좋은 성능을 보여주고, 대표적 이진 분류 알고리즘인 SVM(Support Vector Machine)과 비교를 통해 SLR을 이용한 특징 벡터 선택이 나은 성능을 보여줌을 확인하였다. 또한 SLR로 확인된 각 기저영상에 대한 가중치를 통하여 인식 과정에서 중요한 얼굴 영역들을 확인할 수 있다.

Red tide is a temporary natural phenomenon involving harmful algal blooms (HABs) in company with a changing sea color from normal to red or reddish brown, and which has a bad influence on coast environments and sea ecosystems. The HABs have inflicted massive mortality on fin fish and shellfish, damaging the economies of fisheries for almost every year from 1990 in South Korea. There have been many studies on red tide due to increasing damage from red tide on fishing and aquaculture industry. However, internal study of automatic red tide image classification is not enough. Especially, extraction of matching center features for recognizing algae image object is difficult because over 200 species of algae in the world have a different size and features. Previously studies used a few type of red tide algae for image classification. In this paper, we proposed the red tide image recognition method using NMF and revison of rotation angle for enhancing of recognition of red tide algae image.

Music transcription is extracting pitch (the height of a musical note) and rhythm (the length of a musical note) information from audio file and making a music score. In this paper, we decomposed a waveform into frequency and rhythm components using Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) and Non-Negative Sparse coding (NNSC) which are often used for source separation and data clustering. And using the subharmonic summation method, fundamental frequency is calculated from the decomposed frequency components. Therefore, the accurate pitch of each score can be estimated. The proposed method successfully performed music transcription with its results superior to those of the conventional methods which used either NMF or NNSC.

There have been many studies on red tide due to increasing damage from red tide on fishing and aquaculture industry. However, internal study of automatic red tide image classification is not enough. Recognition of red tide algae is difficult because they do not have matching center features for recognizing algae image object. Previously studies used a few type of red tide algae for image classification. In this paper, we proposed the red tide image recognition method using semantic features of NMF and roundness of image objects.

This paper presents a new statistical voice activity detection (VAD) based on the probabilistic interpretation of nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF). The objective function of the NMF using Kullback-Leibler divergence coincides with the negative log likelihood function of the data if the distribution of the data given the basis and encoding matrices is modeled as Poisson distributions. Based on this probabilistic NMF, the VAD is constructed using the likelihood ratio test assuming that speech and noise follow Poisson distributions. Experimental results show that the proposed approach outperformed the conventional Gaussian model-based and NMF-based methods at 0-15 dB signal-to-noise ratio simulation conditions.

This study was conducted to provide a solution to the problem of sizing errors occurring in online purchases due to discrepancies and non-standardization in clothing sizes. This paper discusses an implementation approach for a machine learning-based recommender system capable of providing personalized sizes to online consumers. We trained multiple validated collaborative filtering algorithms including Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF), Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Co-Clustering using purchasing data derived from online commerce and compared their performance. As a result of the study, we were able to confirm that the NMF algorithm showed superior performance compared to other algorithms. Despite the characteristic of purchase data that includes multiple buyers using the same account, the proposed model demonstrated sufficient accuracy. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to reducing the return rate due to sizing errors and improving the customer experience on e-commerce platforms.

Document clustering is an important method for document analysis and is used in many different information retrieval applications. This paper proposes a new document clustering model using the re-weighted term based NMF(non-negative matrix factorization) to cluster documents relevant to a user's requirement. The proposed model uses the re-weighted term by using user feedback to reduce the gap between the user's requirement for document classification and the document clusters by means of machine. The Proposed method can improve the quality of document clustering because the re-weighted terms. the semantic feature matrix and the semantic variable matrix, which is used in document clustering, can represent an inherent structure of document set more well. The experimental results demonstrate appling the proposed method to document clustering methods achieves better performance than documents clustering methods.

The results of inherent knowledge based generic summarization are influenced by the composition of sentence in document set. In order to resolve the problem, this papser propses a new generic document summarization which uses clustering of semantic feature of document and coherence of document cluster. The proposed method clusters sentences using semantic feature deriving from NMF(non-negative matrix factorization), which it can classify document topic group because inherent structure of document are well represented by the sentence cluster. In addition, the method can improve the quality of summarization because the importance sentences are extracted by using coherence of sentence cluster and the cluster refinement by re-cluster. The experimental results demonstrate appling the proposed method to generic summarization achieves better performance than generic document summarization methods.
