For high-dimensional classification tasks, such as face recognition, the number of samples is smaller than the dimensionality of the samples. In such cases, a problem encountered in linear discriminant analysis-based methods for dimension reduction is what is known as the small sample size (SSS) problem. Recently, to solve the SSS problem, a way of employing a dissimilarity-based classification(DBC) has been investigated. In DBC, an object is represented based on the dissimilarity measures among representatives extracted from training samples instead of the feature vector itself. In this paper, we propose a new method of optimizing DBCs using multi-level fusion strategies(MFS), in which fusion strategies are employed to represent features as well as to design classifiers. Our experimental results for benchmark face databases demonstrate that the proposed scheme achieves further improved classification accuracies.

The video-based system of the broadcasters and the video-related institutions have shifted from analogical to digital in worldwide. This migration process can generate a defect, digital dropout, in the quality of the contents. Moreover, there are limited researches focused on these kind of defects and those related have limitations. For that reason, we are proposing a new method for feature extraction emphasizing in the peculiar block pattern of digital dropout based on discrete cosine transform (DCT). For classification of error block, we utilize support vector machine (SVM) which can manage feature vectors efficiently. Further, the proposed method overcome the limitation of the previous one using continuity of frame by frame. It is using only the information of a single frame and works better even in the presence of fast moving objects, without the necessity of specific model or parameter estimation. Therefore, this approach is capable of detecting digital dropout only with minimal complexity.

In this paper, we propose the method of designing an extended kalman filter in order to accurately measure the position of the spatial-phase system using sensor fusion. We use the quaternion as a state variable in expressing the attitude of an object. Then, the attitude of rigid body can be calculated from the accelerometer and magnetometer by applying the Gauss-Newton method. We estimate the changes of state by using the measurements obtained from the gyroscope, the quaternion, and the vision informations by ARVR_SDK. To increase the accuracy of estimation, we designed and implemented the extended kalman filter, which showed excellent ability to adjust and compensate the sensor error. As a result, we could experimentally demonstrate that the reliability of the attitude estimation value can be significantly increased.

The aim of this paper is to select a distinct vocabulary for understanding the media facade of user and to lay the foundation for a media facade emotional scale. Firstly, we assembled a set of emotional words that were sufficient to represent a general overview of korean emotions, collected from various literature studies. Secondly, we found emotional words from collecting user opinion on the Youtube website. Finally the emotional words were collected from phrase by using non-structural survey. The collected words were integrated according to standards and they were organized 39 pieces that can be used in the survey. As a result, we extracted 21 emotional words for measuring user's emotions expressed while watching media facade, such as 'novel', 'cool', 'awesome', 'gorgeous', 'exciting', 'amazing', 'wonderful,', 'showy', 'great,', 'intense', 'good', 'grand', 'colorful', 'unique', 'variety', 'new', 'fun', 'beautiful', 'luxurious,', 'mysterious', 'satisfactory'. And we categorized the 21 words to form 5 elements by using factor analysis such as 'surprise', 'attention', 'variety', 'aesthetics', 'interest'.

Because antique Korean Peninsula maps have many historical signification, we can estimate historical evidences by analyzing them. However, it is very difficult to compare antique maps with modern maps because the antique maps were made by arranging local regions. To resolve this difficulty, we transform antique maps by rotating, scaling and translating to compare with a reference map. Each antique map is rotated in the difference of principal axis angles of the target and the reference maps, and its width and height are scaled asymmetrically using width and height ratios of bounding boxes. Finally, the two regions are overlaid by adjusting their centroids, and then the antique map is evaluated by two similarity equations. Experimental results show that the similarities of region ratio and different angle are properly computed according to era. Therefore, the proposed method can be widely used to analyze the antique Korean Peninsula maps.

정보화 사회에서 관광 웹 사이트는 그 지역의 가치가 있는 관광정보를 제공하고, 관광객을 유치하는 마케팅 도구로서 그 역할이 중요시되고 있다. 또한, 인터넷 정보 수용자는 관광 웹 사이트를 매개로 하여 그 지역에 대한 이미지를 갖게 되고, 점차적으로 일정한 태도를 형성하여 결국 관광지를 선택하는데 영향을 받는다고 볼 수 있다. 지방 자치 단체의 홈페이지에서 관광 홍보가 매우 중요하다. 그 이유는 첫째 인터넷 외에 지역의 관광정보를 여행하기 전에 입수하는 것이 매우 어려운 상황이고, 둘째로, 인터넷을 통한 관광 정보 탐색이 대중화되고 있기 때문이다. 정보탐색은 지속적 탐색이라 표현할 수 있는데 잠재적 관광객이 관광 홈페이지를 매개로 하여 그 지역의 대한 이미지를 갖게 되고 그에 따라 관광지 선택에 영향을 받는다고 볼 수 있다. 하지만, 광역자치단체의 웹사이트 상에서 관광정보를 구축하여 제공할 때에 정보 수용자 측면보다는 개발자 측면 중심으로 이루어진 경우가 많이 있다. 그래서, 막대한 재정적 투자를 통해 개발된 관광정보가 수용자의 욕구에 다소 못 미칠 수 있다. 이에 관광정보 수용자들의 정보탐색 요인을 파악하여 개발할 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 또한, 관광정보 요구자가 관광정보를 탐색할 때 그들의 특성에 따라 관광정보 웹 사이트를 평가하는 기준이 다르게 나타날 수 있다. 이를 기반으로 대학생들이 개인의 특성에 따라 웹 사이트의 평가에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석하고자 한다. 설문지법을 사용하여 전남 D대학교의 관광학 전공, 경영학 전공, IT(정보통신)학 전공 학생을 대상으로 총 90부를 설문조사 하였으며, 각 전공별 학생들을 컴퓨터 실습실에서 1시간 동안 전남도청 관광 웹 사이트를 탐색하게 한 후 설문지에 응답하는 방식을 사용했다. 개인의 특성에 따라서 관광정보 웹 사이트 수용도 에서는 유흥성향과 외향-내향성 성향이 관광정보 웹 사이트의 수용도에 영향을 미친다는 매우 유의하다는 결과를 도출 할 수 있었다. 웹 사이트의 특성에 따라서 관광정보 웹 사이트 수용도 에서는 탐색의 편리성, 정보의 충실성, 정보의 질이 관광정보 수용도 유의적이라는 결과를 도출했다. 하지만, 대고객 서비스에는 관광정보 웹 사이트 수용도에 대한 영향이 유의적이지 못한 결과를 보이고 있는데, 이를 위해서는 사용자에게 개별서비스 제공을 함으로서, 동영상이나 각종 사운드, 사용자 편의를 위한 관련정보 다운로드, 사용자를 고려한 부과서비스를 제공한다면 웹 사이트의 성과가 높을 것임을 기대할 수 있다.

It has been shown that in the modern society, teenagers do not read a lot of books. As basic research in order to attract teenagers to reading activities, the effectiveness of booktrailers in affecting reading motivation of teenagers has been studied. As such, 121 middle school and high school students were surveyed with respect to their (1) basic awareness of reading and booktrailers, (2) awareness thereof after watching booktrailers, and (3) reader behaviour reaction applied to AIDMA & AISAS sub-elements. Results show booktrailers to be much more effective in reading motivation than printed media such as book reviews. The preferred booktrailer type is the storyline type. The preferred elements of booktrailers are the storyline, background music, video effects, with their preference in descending order. Also, in terms of the reader behaviour reaction of the teenagers, very positive responses appear across all areas including attention and interest in the book, memories of the book, desire to read the book, search for information, and production of booktrailers. These results indicate that booktrailers can be utilized very effectively in providing reading motivation and in reading expression activities.

In this paper, we propose a novel 2-D partial matching algorithm based on model-based stochastic analysis of feature correspondences in a relation vector space, which is quite robust to shape variations as well as invariant to geometric transformations. We represent an object using the ARG (Attributed Relational Graph) model with features of a set of relation vectors. In addition, we statistically model the partial occlusion or noise as the distortion of the relation vector distribution in the relation vector space. Our partial matching algorithm consists of two-phases. First, a finite number of candidate sets areselected by using logical constraint embedding local and structural consistency Second, the feature loss detection is done iteratively by error detection and voting scheme thorough the error analysis of relation vector space. Experimental results on real images demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is quite robust to noise and localize target objects correctly even inseverely noisy and occluded scenes.

In this paper, we present a hybrid neural network model for dynamic hand gesture recognition. The model consists of two modules, feature extraction module and pattern classification module. We first propose a modified CNN(convolutional Neural Network) a pattern recognition model for the feature extraction module. Then we introduce a weighted fuzzy min-max(WFMM) neural network for the pattern classification module. The data representation proposed in this research is a spatiotemporal template which is based on the motion information of the target object. To minimize the influence caused by the spatial and temporal variation of the feature points, we extend the receptive field of the CNN model to a three-dimensional structure. We discuss the learning capability of the WFMM neural networks in which the weight concept is added to represent the frequency factor in training pattern set. The model can overcome the performance degradation which may be caused by the hyperbox contraction process of conventional FMM neural networks. From the experimental results of human action recognition and dynamic hand gesture recognition for remote-control electric home appliances, the validity of the proposed models is discussed.

Recently, many methods to analyze signal have been proposed and representative methods are the Fourier transform and wavelet transform. In these methods, the Fourier transform represents signal with combination cosine and sine at all locations in the frequency domain. However, it doesn't provide time information that particular frequency occurs in signal and depends on only the global feature of the signal. So, to improve these points the wavelet transform which is capable of multiresolution analysis has been applied to many fields such as speech processing, image processing and computer vision. And the wavelet transform, which uses changing window according to scale parameter, presents time-frequency localization. In this paper, we proposed a new approach using a wavelet of cosine and sine type and analyzed features of signal in a limited point of frequency-time plane.
