Logistic discrimination is an useful statistical technique for quantitative analysis of financial service industry. Especially it is not only easy to be implemented, but also has good classification rate. Generalized additive model is useful for credit scoring since it has the same advantages of logistic discrimination as well as accounting ability for the nonlinear effects of the explanatory variables. It may, however, need too many additive terms in the model when the number of explanatory variables is very large and there may exist dependencies among the variables. Mixtures of factor analyzers can be used for dimension reduction of high-dimensional feature. This study proposes to use the low-dimensional factor scores of mixtures of factor analyzers as the new features in the generalized additive model. Its application is demonstrated in the classification of some real credit scoring data. The comparison of correct classification rates of competing techniques shows the superiority of the generalized additive model using factor scores.

얼굴 검출은 디지털화된 임의의 정지 영상 혹은 연속된 영상으로부터 얼굴 존재 유무를 판단하고, 얼굴이 존재할 경우 영상 내 얼굴의 위치, 방향, 크기 둥을 알아내는 기술로 정의된다. 이러한 얼굴 검출은 얼굴 인식이나 표정인식, 헤드 재스쳐 등의 기초 기술로서 해당 시스템의 성능에 매우 중요한 변수 중에 하나이다. 그러나 영상내의 얼굴은 표정, 포즈, 크기, 빛의 방향 및 밝기, 안경, 수염 둥의 환경적 변화로 인해 얼굴 모양이 다양해지므로 정확하고 빠른 검출이 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 피셔의 선형 판별 분석을 이용하여 몇 가지 환경적 조건을 극복한 정확하고 빠른 얼굴 검출 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 포즈와, 배경에 무관하게 얼굴을 검출하면서도 빠른 검출이 가능하다. 이를 위해 계층적인 방법으로 얼굴 검출을 수행하며, 휴리스틱한 방법, 피셔의 판별 분석을 이용하여 얼굴 검출을 수행하고 검색 영역의 축소와 선형 결정의 계산 시간의 단축으로 검출 응답 시간을 빠르게 하였다 추출된 얼굴 영상에서 포즈를 추정하고 눈 영역을 검출함으로써 얼굴 정보의 사용에 있어 보다 많은 정보를 추출할 수 있도록 하였다.

Two scale characters, the width ana circuli counts of the first-year band, were used in a discriminant function analysis to see how effectively the two scale characters would separate geographical chum stocks from the western North Pacific. A total of 476 scale samples were taken from spawning adults which ascended to rivers of Hokkaido, Japan, in 1956, and Kamchatka, the U.S.S.R., in 1957. The scale characters were examined for conformity to the statistical requirements of a discriminant function. As a result of the examinations the two characters were verified to be able to be used in a discriminant function analysis that would classify chum taken on the high seas to most Probable origin. A discriminant function computed using the two characters correctly classified 78.5 percent of the Hokkaido and Kamchatka chum fish. Of the two characters the number of the circuli could alone classify fish to its origin with nearly the same probability of correct classification as the discriminant function based on the two characters can.

본 연구에서는 영산강 본류를 대표하는 나주지점을 대상으로 하여, 해당 지점에서 자동 측정되고 있는 수질 항목들 중에서 총유기탄소(TOC: Total Organic Carbon)의 시계열 자료에 대한 비선형 동역학적 거동을 파악하고자 하였다. 1994년 낙동강에서의 수질오염 사고 이후 4대강 유역에서 설치.운영되고 있는 수질자동 측정망의 TOC 자료를 일자료로 환산하여 사용하였으며, 시계열 자료에 비선형 동역학적(카오스적) 특성이 존재하는지를 알아보기에 앞서 자료의 전처리 과정으로써 3가지의 잡음제거 방법을 적용하였다. 잡음이 제거된 시계열 자료에 비선형 동역학적 거동의 파악을 위해 보편적으로 사용되고 있는 상관차원분석을 실시하였다. 또한 상관차원분석 결과 비선형 동역학적 거동을 나타내는 것으로 판별된 자료에 대하여 그 양상을 가시적으로 알아보기 위해 지체시간$(\tau)$을 적용하여 3차원 위상공간에 도시하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 나주지점에서 측정되고 있는 총유기탄소에 대해 비선형 잡음제거 방법을 적용한 자료가 비선형 동역학적 거동을 내재하고 있는 것으로 나타났으나, 이를 위상공간에 재건하였을 경우 이상한 끌개(strange attractor)의 뚜렷한 구조가 보이지 않았다. 그러나 상관차원분석 결과 잡음이 제거된 자료가 카오스적 특성을 보이므로, 자료의 단기예측을 위한 방법에 기초적인 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper deals with Iris recognition as one of biometric techniques which is applied to identify a person using his/her behavior or congenital characteristics. The Iris of a human eye has a texture that is unique and time invariant for each individual. First, we obtain the feature vector from the 2D Iris pattern having a property of size invariant and using the fuzzy LDA which is further through four types of 2D Gabor wavelet. At the recognition process, we compute the similarity measure based on the correlation values. Here, since we use four different matching values obtained from four different directional Gabor wavelet and select the maximum value, it is possible to minimize the recognition error rate. To show the usefulness of the proposed algorithm, we applied it to a biometric database consisting of 300 Iris Patterns extracted from 50 subjects and finally got more higher than $90\%$ recognition rate.

Computing music similarity is an indispensable component in developing music search service. This paper focuses on learning a music similarity function in order to boost cover song identification performance. By using the probabilistic linear discriminant analysis, we construct a latent music space where the distances between cover song pairs reduces while the distances between the non-cover song pairs increases. We derive a music similarity function by testing hypothesis, whether two songs share the same latent variable or not, using the probabilistic models with the assumption that observed music features are generated from the learned latent music space. Experimental results performed on two cover music datasets show that the proposed music similarity improves the cover song identification performance.

Among the biometrics, signature shows more larger variation than the other biometrics such as fingerprint and iris. In order to overcome this problem, we propose a robust offline signature verification method based on PCA and LDA. Signature is projected to vertical and horizontal axes by new grid partition method. And then feature extraction and decision is performed by PCA and LDA. Experimental results show that the proposed offline signature verification has lower False Reject Rate(FRR) and False Acceptance Rate(FAR) which are 1.45% and 2.1%, respectively.

Among various methods to compare reference signatures with an input signature, the segment-to-segment matching method has more advantages than global and point-to-point methods. However, the segment-to-segment matching method has the problem of having lower recognition rate according to the variation of partitioning points. To resolve this drawback, this paper proposes a signature verification method by considering linear discriminant analysis as well as segment-to-segment matching method. For the final decision step, we adopt statistical based Bayesian classifier technique to effectively combine two individual systems. Under the various experiments, the proposed method shows better performance than segment-to-segment based matching method.

Water pipeline network in local and metropolitan area is buried underground, by which it is hard to know the degree of pipe aging and leakage. In this study, assuming various sensor combinations installed in the water pipeline network, the optimal algorithm was derived by predicting the water flow rate and pressure through artificial intelligence algorithms such as linear regression and neuro fuzzy analysis to examine the possibility of detecting pipe leakage according to the data combination. In the case of leakage detection through water supply pressure prediction, Neuro fuzzy algorithm was superior to linear regression analysis. In case of leakage detection through water supply flow prediction, flow rate prediction using neuro fuzzy algorithm should be considered first. If flow meter for prediction don't exists, linear regression algorithm should be considered instead for pressure estimation.

Face recognition is a technology to extract feature from a facial image, learn the features through various algorithms, and recognize a person by comparing the learned data with feature of a new facial image. Especially, in order to improve the rate of face recognition, face recognition requires various processing methods. In the training stage of face recognition, feature should be extracted from a facial image. As for the existing method of extracting facial feature, linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is being mainly used. The LDA method is to express a facial image with dots on the high-dimensional space, and extract facial feature to distinguish a person by analyzing the class information and the distribution of dots. As the position of a dot is determined by pixel values of a facial image on the high-dimensional space, if unnecessary areas or frequently changing areas are included on a facial image, incorrect facial feature could be extracted by LDA. Especially, if a camera image is used for face recognition, the size of a face could vary with the distance between the face and the camera, deteriorating the rate of face recognition. Thus, in order to solve this problem, this paper detected a facial area by using a camera, removed unnecessary areas using the facial feature area calculated via a Gabor filter, and normalized the size of the facial area. Facial feature were extracted through LDA using the normalized facial image and were learned through the artificial neural network for face recognition. As a result, it was possible to improve the rate of face recognition by approx. 13% compared to the existing face recognition method including unnecessary areas.
