Recently, modern people are increasing the incidence of various musculoskeletal diseases due to wrong posture. Prevention is possible through proper posture habit, but it is not easy to recognize posture by oneself. Various studies have been conducted to monitor persistent posture in daily life, but most studies using constrained measurement methods and high-cost measurement equipment are not suitable for daily life. In this paper, we implemented a posture discrimination system using a FSR sensor array that can induce posture correction spontaneously through sitting posture monitoring in daily life. The implemented system is designed as a cushion type so it is easy to apply to existing chair. In addition, it can identify five most common postures in everyday life, and can monitor real-time through Android-based smart-phone monitoring application. For the performance evaluation of the implemented system, each posture was measured 50 times repeatedly. As a result, 97.6% accuracy was confirmed.

Main researching issue in affective computing is to give a machine the ability to recognize the emotion of a person and to react it properly. Efforts in that direction have mainly focused on facial and oral cues to get emotions. Postures have been recently considered as well. This paper aims to discriminate emotions posture by identifying and measuring the saliency of posture features that play a role in affective expression. To do so, affective postures from human subjects are first collected using a motion capture system, then emotional features in posture are described with spatial ones. Through standard statistical techniques, we verified that there is a statistically significant correlation between the emotion intended by the acting subjects, and the emotion perceived by the observers. Discriminant Analysis are used to build affective posture predictive models and to measure the saliency of the proposed set of posture features in discriminating between 6 basic emotional states. The evaluation of proposed features and models are performed using a correlation between actor-observer's postures set. Quantitative experimental results show that proposed set of features discriminates well between emotions, and also that built predictive models perform well.

In this paper, we were implemented the application to induce correct posture by recognizing the incorrect posture of the user. Implemented system uses kinect sensors to determine the user's position information, it has been developed posture determination algorithm that can determine the four wrong posture and correct posture. In addition to PC in order to improve the user convenience and accessibility, to implement real-time monitoring application that can determine the user's position in the smartphone. For the system of performance evaluation of and promote the attitude determination experiment to target the five college students, the experimental results sensitivity and specificity of it it was found that the attitude determination performance is excellent at 0.956.

본 논문에서는 스마트 기기를 사용할 시 자세가 거북목 자세인지 아닌지 판별하는 시스템을 제안한다. 거북목 증후군이란 목이 구부정하게 앞으로 나오는 자세를 오래 취해 목이 일자목으로 바뀌고 뒷목, 어깨, 허리 등에 통증이 생기는 증상을 말하며, 수술이나 약물치료보다 평소의 자세 습관을 고치는 방법이 효과적이다. 기존의 연구들은 노트북에 내장되어있는 웹캠을 이용한 CNN기반의 학습모델은 영상의 명도와 학습 데이터 등에 많은 영향을 받고 학습 데이터를 모을 때 초상권 문제로 수집이 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 예방하고자 Openpose 오픈 소스를 이용한 뼈대를 기반으로 측면에서의 앉은 자세를 한습 모델로 실시간 검증하여, 거북목 자세인지 아닌지를 효율적이고 정확하게 판별한다.

As modern people's interest in exercise and health increases, the demand for exercise-related information and devices is increasing, and exercising in the wrong posture can lead to body imbalance and injury. Therefore, in this study, the purpose of this study is to correct the posture for health promotion and injury prevention through the correct exercise posture of users. It was developed using Arduino Uno R3, a pressure sensor, and an acceleration sensor as the main memory device of the system. The pressure sensor was used to determine the squat posture, and the acceleration sensor was used to determine three types of gait: normal step, nasolabial step, and saddle step. Data is transmitted to a smartphone through a Bluetooth module and displayed on an app to guide the user in the correct exercise posture. The gait was determined based on the 20˚ angle at which the foot was opened, and the correct squat posture was compared with the ratio of the pressure sensor values of the forefoot and hindfoot based on the data of the skilled person. Therefore, based on an experiment with about 90% accuracy when determining gait and 95% accuracy based on a 7:3 ratio of pressure sensor values in squat posture, a system was established to guide users to exercise in the correct posture by checking in real time through a smartphone application and correcting exercise in the wrong posture.

This paper concerns analysis technique on determining of attitude control gain in the low frequency region using stability area. The stability area is defined by the D-Decomposition method, which was designed by Neimark. In this paper, it is introduced D-Decomposition method from reference paper and design attitude control gain of generic launch vehicle during first stage flight phase. For selecting PD control gain, it is considered the system parameter uncertainty about whole first-stage flight phase, represented the stability area boundary on each case. After deciding the PD control gain using stability area method, it is applied to launch vehicle linear model, and checking the stability margin requirement, frequency response characteristics.

In this paper, a study was conducted to prevent spinal - related diseases and to help posture correction by feeding back the wrong attitude to the users. Kinect sensor was used for this purpose. In order to measure the movement of the user, the degree of motion change was measured by indexing the skeletal data coordinate value. It is confirmed that the implemented system can observe not only posture but also distraction of user.

Patients with dementia or elderly patients who can not move at all by themselves are at a high risk of falls and bedsore due to lack of caregivers. In this paper, to solve this problem, we propose an algorithm to determine the patient's lying postures by discriminating the main body parts such as head, shoulders, and hips based on the pressure intensity sensed at regular intervals. A smart mat with a lattice structure in which a pressure sensor is arranged so that the body part can be discriminated irrespective of the physical characteristics has been implemented. It consists of two modules of $7{\times}7$ array size. Each module consists of 49 FSR-406 sensors and independently senses pressure. For each module, the body part corresponding to the upper body or the lower body is sequentially discriminated by using a pressure distribution such as a cumulative pressure sum using a filter. The proposed algorithm can identify five lying positions by examining the inclusion relationship between body parts belonging to layer-1 such as head, shoulder, and hip area.

Many reported methods assume that the people in an image or an image sequence have been identified and localization. People detection is one of very important variable to affect for the system's performance as the basis technology about the detection of other objects and interacting with people and computers, motion recognition. In this paper, we present an efficient linear discriminant for multi-view people detection. Our approaches are based on linear discriminant. We define training data with fisher Linear discriminant to efficient learning method. People detection is considerably difficult because it will be influenced by poses of people and changes in illumination. This idea can solve the multi-view scale and people detection problem quickly and efficiently, which fits for detecting people automatically. In this paper, we extract people using fisher linear discriminant that is hierarchical models invariant pose and background. We estimation the pose in detected people. The purpose of this paper is to classify people and non-people using fisher linear discriminant.
