Purpose: In this study, We aim to estimate a untrained person's three postures using a 2D CNN model which is trained with minimal FFT data collected by a 24GHz FMCW radar. Method: In an indoor space, we collected FFT data for three distinct postures (standing, sitting, and lying) from three different individuals. To apply this data to a 2D CNN model, we first converted the collected data into 2D images. These images were then trained using the 2D CNN model to recognize the distinct features of each posture. Following the training, we evaluated the model's accuracy in differentiating the posture features across various individuals. Result: According to the experimental results, the average accuracy of the proposed scheme for the three postures was shown to be a 89.99% and it outperforms the conventional 1D CNN and the SVM schemes. Conclusion: In this study, we aim to estimate any person's three postures using a 2D CNN model and a 24GHz FMCW radar for disastrous situations in indoor. it is shown that the different posture of any persons can be accurately estimated even though his or her data is not used for training the AI model.

본 논문에서는 모니터 상단의 일반 웹 카메라를 이용하여 사용자의 올바른 자세와 올바르지 않은 자세를 추정하고 사용자가 스스로 교정을 유도할 수 있는 새로운 개념의 어플리케이션을 소개한다. 교정의자나 허리 보호대 등의 도구가 없이 카메라 하나로 사용자가 자기 자세에 대한 인식을 할 수 있도록 제안하는 시스템이다. 정면 시점에서 바라보는 사용자의 자세는 얼굴과 어깨의 특징으로 판단하고, 초기화한 올바른 자세와 비교하여 사용자에게 경고 알림을 해주는 과정으로 진행된다. 주기적으로 자세를 확인하는 시스템을 통하여 사용자가 컴퓨터를 하는 자세에 대해 자각시킴으로써 올바른 자세를 가지도록 유도할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

양돈 업계에서 돼지의 무게는 생산성 측면에서 매우 중요한 요인 중 하나이다. 탑뷰 카메라를 통해 획득된 이미지에서 돼지의 무게를 추정할 때 오차가 적고 신뢰도 있는 결과를 보이기 위해, 오차의 주요 원인인 돼지의 머리를 제거하여야 한다. 우선, 돼지의 머리를 제거하기 위해서는 귀를 탐지하여야 한다. 그러나 돼지의 자세가 바르지 못한 경우 겹침으로 인해 돼지의 귀와 머리가 구분되지 않는 경우가 발생하고, 귀 탐지 과정에서 고려해야 할 변수가 많아지므로 연산량과 수행 시간이 증가한다. 따라서 돼지의 무게 추정을 위해서 돼지의 머리를 제거할 때 돼지의 자세 판정은 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 돼지의 중점으로부터 돼지의 경계선을 연결한 선분의 길이를 비교하여 돼지의 자세를 빠르게 결정하였다. 이를 통해 자세가 바른 돼지의 머리를 제거하여 돼지의 무게를 측정하는 방법을 제안한다. 실험 결과, 7.8 ms의 수행 시간과 0.97 이상의 정확도로 돼지머리 제거를 위한 자세를 결정할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Recently, the development of practical wearable robot interfaces has resulted in the emergence of wearable robots such as arm prosthetics or lower-limb exoskeletons. In this paper, we propose a novel method of wrist movement intention estimation based on a regression technique using electromyography of human bio-signals. In daily life, changes in user arm position changes cause decreases in performance by modulating EMG signals. Therefore, we propose an estimation method for robust wrist movement intention for arm position changes, combining several movement intention models based on the regression technique trained by different arm positions. In our experimental results, our method estimates wrist movement intention more accurately than previous methods.

UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) have an INS(Inertial Navigation System) equipment and also have an electro-optical Equipment for mission. This paper proposes the vision based attitude estimation algorithm using Kalman Filter and Optical flow for UAV. Optical flow is acquired from the movie of camera which is equipped on UAV and UAV's attitude is measured from optical flow. In this paper, Kalman Filter has been used for the settlement of the low reliability and estimation of UAV's attitude. Algorithm verification was performed through experiments. The experiment has been used rate table and real flight video. Then, this paper shows the verification result of UAV's attitude estimation algorithm. When the rate table was tested, the error was in 2 degree and the tendency was similar with AHRS measurement states. However, on the experiment of real flight movie, maximum yaw error was 21 degree and Maximum pitch error was 7.8 degree.

This paper presents a 3-D pose (position and orientation) estimation method for an elliptic object in 3-D space. It is difficult to resolve the problem of determining 3-D pose parameters with respect to an elliptic feature in 3-D space by interpretation of its projected feature onto an image plane. As an alternative, we propose a two points-based pose estimation algorithm to seek the 3-D information of an elliptic feature. The proposed algorithm determines a homogeneous transformation uniquely for a given correspondence set of an ellipse and two coplanar points that are defined on model and image plane, respectively. For each plane, two triangular features are extracted from an ellipse and two points based on the polarity in 2-D projection space. A planar homography is first estimated by the triangular feature correspondences, then decomposed into 3-D pose parameters. The proposed method is evaluated through a series of experiments for analyzing the errors of 3-D pose estimation and the sensitivity with respect to point locations.

In terms of 3D orientation estimation based on nine-axis IMMU(inertial and magnetic measurement unit), there are two disturbance components decreasing estimation accuracy: one is external acceleration disturbing accelerometer's signals and the other is magnetic disturbance related to magnetometer's signals. In order to minimize effects by these two disturbances, two approaches including switching approach and model-based approach have been suggested and further research comparing these two has also been conducted. Nevertheless, effect of disturbance modeling differences on orientation estimation accuracy in model-based approach has not been studied before. This paper compares the recently reported two orientation estimation algorithms that have difference in disturbance models, in order to investigate the effect of disturbance models on accuracy of IMMU-based orientation estimation under various operating conditions. This research shows that the difference in disturbance models leads to difference in process noise covariance matrix. Consequently, this affected the orientation estimation, i.e., the estimation differences between the algorithms were root mean square errors of $1.35^{\circ}$ in average and $3.63^{\circ}$ in yaw estimation.

One of the basic tasks for robots to interact with humans is to quickly and accurately grasp human behavior. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the accuracy of human pose recognition when the robot is estimating the human pose and to recognize it as quickly as possible. However, when the human pose is estimated using deep learning, which is a representative method of artificial intelligence technology, recognition accuracy and speed are not satisfied at the same time. Therefore, it is common to select one of a top-down method that has high inference accuracy or a bottom-up method that has high processing speed. In this paper, we propose two methods that complement the disadvantages while including both the advantages of the two methods mentioned above. The first is to perform parallel inference on the server using multi GPU, and the second is to mix bottom-up and One-class Classification. As a result of the experiment, both of the methods presented in this paper showed improvement in speed. If these two methods are applied to the entertainment robot, it is expected that a highly reliable interaction with the audience can be performed.

동영상에서의 움직임 추적은 이전 프레임에서 얻어낸 정보를 이용할 수 있다는 점에서 프레임간의 연결 관계에 기반한 움직임 추적이 가능하다. 그러나 사람의 신체는 고정된 형태를 가지고 있지 않기 때문에 프레임 간의 단순한 연결 관계만으로 사람의 자세를 추정하고 움직임을 추적하는 것은 매우 어려운 문제이다. 본 논문에서는 구성요소에 기반한 인체 모델을 이용하여 이전 프레임에서 찾은 블랍들을 연속된 프레임에서 찾은 블랍들로 연결함으로써, 동영상에서 사람의 자세를 추적하는 방법을 제안한다. 주어진 모델에 따라 이전 블랍은 대응되거나, 여러 블랍으로 나뉘거나, 다른 블랍들과 결합되어 사라지거나, 새로 생성되는 등의 4 가지 경우로 나뉘어 질 수 있는데, 각 경우에 대한 처리 방안을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 인체들과 블랍들의 리스트 처리를 간단하게 할 뿐만 아니라, 추적의 전처리 과정으로 블랍화를 옳게 수행해야 하는 부담을 덜어주어 과도한 블랍화와 부족한 블랍화 등의 문제를 해결할 수 있다.

This study addresses spacecraft moment of inertial estimation approach using Modified Rodrigues Parameters(MRP). The MRP offer advantage by avoiding singularity in Kalman Filter design for attitude determination caused by the norm constraint of quaternion parameters. Meanwhile, MRP may suffer singularity for large angular displacement, so that we designed appropriate reference attitude motion for accurate estimation. The proposed approach is expected to provide stable error covariance update with accurate spacecraft mass property estimation results.
