This paper describes a lateral guidance system of an autonomous vehicle, using a neural network model of magneto-resistive sensor and magnetic fields. The model equation was compared with experimental sensing data. We found that the experimental result has a negligible difference from the modeling equation result. We verified that the modeling equation can be used in simulations. As the neural network controller acquires magnetic field values(B$\sub$x/, B$\sub$y/, B$\sub$z/) from the three-axis, the controller outputs a steering angle. The controller uses the back-propagation algorithms of neural network. The learning pattern acquisition was obtained using computer simulation, which is more exact than human driving. The simulation program was developed in order to verify the acquisition of the teaming pattern, learning itself, and the adequacy of the design controller. Also, the performance of the controller can be verified through simulation.

Measuring heart rate variability by deep breathing and using this to evaluate the autonomic nervous system is a well-known method widely used in various clinical fields. In hospitals, expensive equipment is installed and managed by experts for this purpose. This paper discusses an app we developed that can easily test the autonomic nervous system by deep breathing anytime, anywhere using a smartphone, and then reviews experiments performed to verify the results. The experiments were conducted in the clinical room of the Department of Neurology at Soonchunhyang University Cheonan Hospital on eight volunteers. We tested the autonomic nervous systems of the volunteers first with an electromyography device installed in the hospital and then with the app under identical conditions. We performed a correlation analysis on the results of these two methods using the Pearson method, and this yielded a very high correlation of 0.98.

This paper presents a method to implement a low-cost driving simulator for developing autonomous driving algorithms. This is implemented by using GTA V, a physical engine-based commercial game software, containing a function to emulate output and data of various sensors for autonomous driving. For this, NF of Script Hook V is incorporated to acquire GT data by accessing internal data of the software engine, and then, various sensor data for autonomous driving are generated. We present an overall function of the developed driving simulator and perform a verification of individual functions. We explain the process of acquiring GT data via direct access to the internal memory of the game engine to build up an autonomous driving algorithm development environment. And, finally, an example applicable to artificial neural network training and performance evaluation by processing the emulated sensor output is included.

Bishop이 제안한 generative Topographic Mapping(GTM)은 Kohonen이 제안한 자율 학습 신경망인 Self Organizing Maps(SOM)의 확률적 버전이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 GTM 모형에 베이지안 추론을 결합하여 작은 오분류율을 가지는 분류 알고리즘인 베이지안 GTM(Bayesian GTM)을 제안한다. 이 방법은 기존의 GTM의 빠른 계산 처리 능력과 베이지안 추론을 이용하여 기존의 분류 알고리즘보다 우수한 결과가 나타남을 실험을 통하여 확인하였다.

This paper describes a visual control of autonomous vehicle using neural network. Visual control for road-following of autonomous vehicle is based on road image from camera. Road points on image are inputs of controller and vehicle speed and steering angle are outputs of controller using neural network. Simulation study confirmed the visual control of road-following using neural network. For experimental test, autonomous electric vehicle is designed and driving test is realized

Currently, the autonomous vehicle market is commercializing a level 3 autonomous vehicle, but it still requires the attention of the driver. After the level 3 autonomous driving, the most notable aspect of level 4 autonomous vehicles is vehicle stability. This is because, unlike Level 3, autonomous vehicles after level 4 must perform autonomous driving, including the driver's carelessness. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the Emergency-notification and Driver-response Confirmation System(EDCS) for an autonomousvehicle safety that notifies the driver of an emergency situation and recognizes the driver's reaction in a situation where the driver is careless. The EDCS uses the emergency situation delivery module to make the emergency situation to text and transmits it to the driver by voice, and the driver response confirmation module recognizes the driver's reaction to the emergency situation and gives the driver permission Decide whether to pass. As a result of the experiment, the HMM of the emergency delivery module learned speech at 25% faster than RNN and 42.86% faster than LSTM. The Tacotron2 of the driver's response confirmation module converted text to speech about 20ms faster than deep voice and 50ms faster than deep mind. Therefore, the emergency notification and driver response confirmation system can efficiently learn the neural network model and check the driver's response in real time.

Among the autonomous driving systems based on visual sensors, the control method using a vanishing point is the most general method for autonomous driving. However, if the lane is lost or does not exist, it is very difficult to detect this and estimate the vanishing point. In this paper, we predict the vanishing point of the road and the vanishing point lines on the left and right sides using CNN for the camera image and design the steering controller for autonomous driving from the predicted results. As a result of the simulation, it was confirmed that the proposed method well tracked the center of the road regardless of the presence or absence of a solid lane, and was superior to the control method using a general method using the vanishing point.

Recently several techniques for disaster prevention based on IoT(Internet of Things) are being developed. In this paper, a new smart pattern classification method for electric loads is proposed. CT(Current Transformer) data are extracted from electric loads, and then the sampled CT data are converted using FFT and MFCC. FFT and FMCC data are used for the input data of neural networks. Experiments were conducted using FFT and MFCC data for 7 kinds of electric loads. Experiments results indicate the superiority of MFCC in comparison to FFT.

A self-structured neural network algorithm that finds optimal fuzzy membership functions and nile base to fuzzy model is proposed and a fuzzy-neural network controller is designed to get more accurate position and velocity control of wheeled mobile robot. This procedure that is composed of three steps has its own unique process at each step. The elements of output term set are increased at first step and then the rule base Is varied according to increase of the elements. The adjusted controller is in competition with controller which doesn't include any increased elements. The adjusted controller will be removed if the control-law lost. Otherwise, the controller is replaced with the adjusted system. After finished regulation of output term set and rule base, searching for input membership functions is processed with constraints and fine tuning of output membership functions is done.

과거의 이동로봇 시스템은 완전한 자율주행이 주된 목표였으며 그때의 영상정보는 단지 모니터링을 하는 보조적인 수단으로 사용되었다. 그러나 지금은 이동 물체의 추적, 대상 물체의 인식과 판별, 특징 추출과 같은 다양한 응용분야에서 영상정보를 이용하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다 또한 제어 측면에서는 전통적인 제어기법으로는 해결하기 힘들었던 여러 가지 비선형적인 제어를 지능제어 방법을 통하여 많이 해결하곤 하였다. 그러한 지능제어에서 신경망을 많이 사용하기도 한다. 최근에는 신경망의 학습에 많이 사용하는 방법 중 강화학습이 많이 사용되고 있다. 강화학습이란 동적인 제어평면에서 시행착오를 통해, 목적을 이루기 위해 각 상황에서 행동을 학습하는 방법이다. 그러므로 이러한 강화학습은 수많은 시행착오를 거쳐 그 대응 관계를 학습하게 된다. 제어에 사용되는 제어 파라메타는 어떠한 상태에 처할 수 있는 상태와 행동들, 그리고 상태의 변화, 또한 최적의 해를 구할 수 있는 포상알고리즘에 대해 다양하게 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서 연구한 시스템은 비젼시스템과 Strong Arm 보드를 이용하여 대상물체의 색상과 형태를 파악한 후 실시간으로 물체를 추적할 수 있게 구성하였으며, 또한 물체 이동의 비선형적인 경향성을 강화학습을 통하여 물체이동의 비선형성을 보다 유연하게 대처하여 보다 안정하고 빠르며 정확하게 물체를 추적하는 방법을 실험을 통하여 제안하였다.
