본 논문에서는 생체인식 분야 중 얼굴인식의 검색 정확성 향상 및 검색 시간을 단축하기 위한 단계로 인종별 얼굴영상 데이터베이스에 대한 군집화 기법을 연구하였다. 우선, 일반적으로 얼굴 및 이미지 검색에 사용되는 다양한 특징을 추출하고, 추출한 다차원의 특징 데이터들로부터 다 인종 얼굴 데이터를 유사한 인종별로 정확하게 군집화 하기 위해 최적의 특징벡터를 자동으로 선택 할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 군집결과 분석을 위해 자기 조직화 지도 모형을 이용하였는데, 이는 2차원 분석 및 가시화에 유용하며, 학습 후 코드북벡터를 사용하여 유사한 의미간의 거리부터 검색할 수 있는 특징을 가지고 있다. 특징추출에 관한 실험결과 인종별 구분을 위한 특징벡터로는 웨이블릿 주파수 성분(lowpass 성분)과 CbCr 특징벡터가 인종별 군집화에 가장 유용한 특징으로 선택되었으며. 추출된 특징을 바탕으로 semantic map을 구성하여 제안방법의 효율성을 제시하였다.

Feature-based similarity retrieval become an important research issue in image database systems. The features of image data are useful to discrimination of images. In this paper, we propose the high speed k-Nearest Neighbor search algorithm based on Self-Organizing Maps. Self-Organizing Maps(SOM) provides a mapping from high dimensional feature vectors onto a two-dimensional space and generates a topological feature map. A topological feature map preserves the mutual relations (similarities) in feature spaces of input data, and clusters mutually similar feature vectors in a neighboring nodes. Therefore each node of the topological feature map holds a node vector and similar images that is closest to each node vector. We implemented a k-NN search for similar image classification as to (1) access to topological feature map, and (2) apply to pruning strategy of high speed search. We experiment on the performance of our algorithm using color feature vectors extracted from images. Promising results have been obtained in experiments.

The self-organizing map (SOM) is a unsupervised learning method projecting high-dimensional data into low-dimensional nodes. It can visualize data in 2 or 3 dimensional space using the nodes and it is available to explore characteristics of data through the nodes. To understand the structure of data, cluster analysis is often used for nodes obtained from SOM. In cluster analysis, the optimal number of clusters is one of important issues. To help to determine it, various cluster validity indexes have been developed and they can be applied to clustering outcomes for nodes from SOM. However, while SOM has an advantage in that it reflects the topological properties of original data in the low-dimensional space, these indexes do not consider it. Thus, we propose a new cluster validity index for SOM based on connectivity between nodes which considers topological properties of data. The performance of the proposed index is evaluated through simulations and it is compared with various existing cluster validity indexes.

This study proposed a robust detection algorithm. It detects hands more stably with respect to changes in light and rotation for the identification of a hand shape. Also it satisfies both efficiency of calculation and the function of detection. The algorithm proposed segmented the hand area through pre-processing using a hand shape as input information in an environment with a single camera and then identified the shape using a Self Organized Feature Map(SOFM). However, as it is not easy to exactly recognize a hand area which is sensitive to light, it has a large degree of freedom, and there is a large error bound, to enhance the identification rate, rotation information on the hand shape was made into a database and then a principal component analysis was conducted. Also, as there were fewer calculations due to the fewer dimensions, the time for real-time identification could be decreased.

The necessity of diagnosis of the rotating machinery which is widely used in the industry is increasing. Many research has been conducted to manipulate field vibration signal data for diagnosing the fault of designated machinery. As the pattern recognition tool of that signal, neural network which use usually back-propagation algorithm was used in the diagnosis of rotating machinery. In this paper, self-organizing feature map(SOFM) which is unsupervised learning algorithm is used in the abnormal defect diagnosis of rotating machinery and then learning vector quantization(LVQ) which is supervised learning algorithm is used to improve the quality of the classifier decision regions.

합류부는 인공수로 또는 자연하천에서 흔히 존재하며 매우 복잡한 흐름 구조가 발생하는 곳이다. 특히 본류와 지류의 유속장의 차이에 따라 발생하는 전단층은 흐름과 물질이 혼합되는 경계면이 되며, 흐름 구조가 전단층을 따라 발달한다는 특징으로 인해 수리학적으로 매우 중요하다. 최근 원격탐사 기법의 발전에 따라 위성이나 드론과 같은 무인 이동체를 이용한 하천 계측법이 수질 및 지형변화 연구들에 광범위하게 적용되고 있다. 그 중 RGB 항공영상은 해상도가 높고 취득 비용이 저렴하여 확장성 및 활용도가 높다. 본 연구에서는 합류부 전단층이 촬영된 RGB 항공 영상을 이용해 합류부 전단층 분석에 활용하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안되는 방법은 RGB 항공 영상에서 본류와 지류의 수체 영역을 각각 추출하기 위해 가우시안 혼합 모형(Gaussian mixture model)을 이용한다. 추출된 수체 영역에는 자기조직화지도(self-organizing map)을 적용하고 좌표 변환을 하여 정량적인 특징을 추출한다. 본 연구에서는 알고리듬의 적용 예로서 구글어스를 통해 확보된 낙동강-남강 합류부의 항공 영상을 분석한다. 본 추출법을 이용하면 접촉식 센서를 이용하는 기존의 전단층 계측 방법들에 비해 경제적이고 안전하며 합류부 흐름의 평면적 분석을 가능하게 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

With increasing interest in key areas of the 4th industrial revolution such as artificial intelligence, deep learning and big data, scientific approaches have developed in order to overcome the limitations of traditional decision-making methodologies. These scientific techniques are mainly used to predict the direction of financial products. In this study, the factors of apartment prices, which are of high social interest, were analyzed through SOM. For this analysis, we extracted the real prices of the apartments and selected a total of 16 input variables that would affect these prices. The data period was set from 1986 to 2021. As a result of examining the characteristics of the variables during the rising and faltering periods of the apartment prices, it was found that the statistical tendencies of the input variables of the rising and the faltering periods were clearly distinguishable. I hope this study will help us analyze the status of the real estate market and study future predictions through image learning.

The flood damage in urban areas due to torrential rain is increasing with urbanization. For this reason, accurate and rapid flooding forecasting and expected inundation maps are needed. Predicting the extent of flooding for certain rainfalls is a very important issue in preparing flood in advance. Recently, government agencies are trying to provide expected inundation maps to the public. However, there is a lack of quantifying the extent of inundation caused by a particular rainfall scenario and the real-time prediction method for flood extent within a short time. Therefore the real-time prediction of flood extent is needed based on rainfall-runoff-inundation analysis. One/two dimensional model are continued to analyize drainage network, manhole overflow and inundation propagation by rainfall condition. By applying the various rainfall scenarios considering rainfall duration/distribution and return periods, the inundation volume and depth can be estimated and stored on a database. The Rainfall-Duration-Flooding Quantity (RDF) relationship curve based on the hydraulic analysis results and the Self-Organizing Map (SOM) that conducts unsupervised learning are applied to predict flooded area with particular rainfall condition. The validity of the proposed methodology was examined by comparing the results of the expected flood map with the 2-dimensional hydraulic model. Based on the result of the study, it is judged that this methodology will be useful to provide an unknown flood map according to medium-sized rainfall or frequency scenario. Furthermore, it will be used as a fundamental data for flood forecast by establishing the RDF curve which the relationship of rainfall-outflow-flood is considered and the database of expected inundation maps.
