In this study, a length adjustment algorithm for cyclic signals in manufacturing process using Time Invariant Feature point Extraction and Matching(TIFEM) is proposed. In order to precisely compensate the length of cyclic signals which have irregular length in the middle of signal as well as in the full length more feature points are needed. The extracted feature must involve information about the pattern of signal and should have invariant properties on time and scale. The proposed TIFEM algorithm extracts features having the intrinsic properties of the signal characteristics at first. By using those extracted features, feature vector is constructed for each time point. Among those extracted features, the only effective features are filtered and are chosen such as basis for the length adjustment. And then the partial length adjustment is performed by matching feature points. To verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, the experiments were performed with the experimental data mimicking the three kinds of signals generated from the actual semiconductor process.

In this paper, we propose a landmark recognition method which is irrelevant to the camera viewpoint on the navigation for localization. Features in previous research is variable to camera viewpoint, therefore due to the wealth of information, extraction of visual landmarks for positioning is not an easy task. The proposed method in this paper, has the three following stages; first, extraction of features, second, learning and recognition, third, matching. In the feature extraction stage, we set the interest areas of the image. where we extract the corner points. And then, we extract features more accurate and resistant to noise through statistical analysis of a small eigenvalue. In learning and recognition stage, we form robust feature models by testing whether the feature model consisted of five corner points is an invariant feature irrelevant to viewpoint. In the matching stage, we reduce time complexity and find correspondence accurately by matching method using similarity evaluation function and Graham search method. In the experiments, we compare and analyse the proposed method with existing methods by using various indoor images to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed methods.

In this paper, an algorithm for a real-time automatic fingerprint identification system is proposed. The fingerprint feature volume is extracted by considering distinct and local characteristics(such as intensity and image quality difference etc.) in fingerprint images, which makes the algorithm properly adaptive to various image acquisitionj methods. Also the matching technique is designed to be invariant on rotation, scaling and translation (RST) changes while being capable of real-time processing. And the classification of fingerprints is performed based on the ridge flow and the relations among singular points such as cores and deltas. The developed fingerprint identification algorithm has been applied to various sets of fingerprint images such as one from NIST(National Institute of Standards and Technology, USA), a pressed fingerprint database constructed according to Korean population distributions in sex, ages and jobs, and a set of rolled-than-scanned fingerprint images. The overall performance of the algorithm has been analyzed and evaluated to the false rejection ratio of 0.07% while holding the false acceptance ratio of 0%.
