운전자 지원 시스템(ADAS)은 최근 지능형 자동차 분야에서 중요한 이슈로 손꼽히는 기술 중 하나이다. 이 중에서 실시간 표지판 인식 기술은 운전자 지원 시스템의 하나로 운전자의 안전과 직결될 수 있어 높은 정확성과 실시간성이 요구된다. 그동안 표지판 인식 분야는 색상과 현상을 기반으로 연구가 진행되어왔으나, 교통 표지판은 국가별로 그 특징과 형태가 각기 상이하여 적용하는데 한계가 있다. 본 논문에서는 한국의 속도제한 표지판을 실시간으로 검출하고 인식하기 위하여, 1) 영상에서 색상 특징을 이용하여 후보 영역을 검출하고, 2) 형상 정보를 분석하여 표지판의 형태를 검증하고, 3) 검출된 후보영역의 내부문자(숫자)를 분할하고 인식하는 시스템을 제안한다.

본 연구에서는 움직이는 물체가 있는 비디오에서 검출된 전경 영상(실루엣)을 토대로 사람을 추적하고 추적된 사람의 실루엣 형상을 통하여 활동성을 인식하는 실시간 감시 시스템에 적용 가능한 사람의 행동을 인식하고 분석하고자 한다. 전경에서 블랍(사람)을 검출하는 방법은 기존에 연구했던 차영상을 이용하였고, 검출된 블랍을 대상으로 사람임을 판단하고 사람인 경우 검출된 블랍의 실루엣을 이용한 기존의 자세 추정 기법에 추가적으로 4가지 특징들을 추가하여 사람의 행동을 분석한다. 각 파라미터들은 임계치를 통하여 구분하였다. 본 논문에서는 사람의 행동은 크게 네 가지의 경우로 {Standing, Bending/Crawling, Laying down, Sitting} 분류한다. 제안된 특징 파라미터들을 추가한 방법은 기존의 실루엣 기반의 자세 추정 기법만을 사용하는 것보다 좀더 높은 인식율을 보여주었다.

우리나라 배전계통의 운용은 15개 지사와 수많은 지점에 의하여 관리되고 있으며 각 지역은 산악과 평지가 어우러져 복잡하고 다양한 지리적인 형상을 가지고 있다. 우리나라 고압 배전선로 구성의 특징은 도심지나 주요 시설을 제외하고는 거의 대부분이 방사상으로 되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 배전선로의 현황 및 지리적 특징에 따른 선로 구성 방안과 해외사례를 검토한다.

Generally, in the underwater target recognition, feature vectors are extracted from the target signal utilizing spatial information according to target shape/material characteristics. And, various signal processing techniques have been studied to extract feature vectors which is less sensitive to the location of the receiver. In this paper, we analyzed the characteristics of synthesized underwater objects using canonical correlation analysis method which is relatively less sensitive to the location of receiver. Canonical correlation analysis is applied to two consecutive backscattered sonar returns at different aspect angles to analyze the correlation characteristics in multi-aspect environment.

This paper describes a novel global shape (GS) feature based on radial basis function network (RBFN) and the extraction method of the proposed feature for 3D face recognition. RBFN is the weighted sum of RBfs, it well present the non-linearity of a facial shape using the linear combination of RBFs. It is the proposed facial feature that the weights of RBFN learned by the horizontal profiles of a face. RBFN based feature expresses the locality of the facial shape even if it is GS feature, and it reduces the feature complexity like existing global methods. And it also get the smoothing effect of the facial shape. Through the experiments, we get 94.7% using the proposed feature and hidden markov model (HMM) to match the features for 100 gallery set with those for 300 test set.

When we design a product, we spend a considerable amount of time in designing fasteners and their mating parts. Fasteners have special features because of which they are widely used and well standardized. Although we use some equations to design the fasteners, we should select these fasteners from the standardized table. In order to design them quickly using the CAD system, we proceeded as follows. First, we prepared some standardized shapes of fasteners to design them automatically. Next, we built a database of some fasteners such as a tension bolt, lock wire, thread, pin, and snap ring. Then, we used the design equations to quickly and precisely calculate the various parameters. Finally, we used a configuration design method to generate the shapes automatically using the results of the calculation and the values retrieved from the database. We applied this approach to the design of a propulsion structure, and demonstrated that this approach worked well and saved considerable time.

It is very essential to get the accurate classification of defects in primary pressure vessel and piping welds for the safety of nuclear power plant. Ultrasonic testing has been widely applied to inspect primary pressure vessel and piping welds of nuclear power plants during PSI / ISI. Classification of flaws in weldments from their ultrasonic scattering signals is very important in quantitative nondestructive evaluation. This problem is ideally suited to a modern ultrasonic Pattern recognition technique. Here, a brief discussion on systematic approach to this methodology is presented including ultrasonic feature extraction, feature selection and classification. A stronger emphasis is placed on Fuzzy-UTSCS (UT signal classification system) as efficient classifiers for many practical classification problems. As an example Fuzzy-UTSCS is applied to classify flaws in ferrite pressure vessel weldments into two types such as linear and volumetric. It is shown that Fuzzy-UTSCS is able to exhibit higher performance than other classifiers in the defect classification.

It has problems to use the existing construction information classification system as the bridge breakdown structure due to lack of relationships between element classes. In this study, we proposed the bridge breakdown system for supplementation of above-mentioned classification system. The proposed system, for geometric information modeling, was based on international standards of methodology for structuring part families namely PLIB Part 42. In particular, the breakdown system, considering of the functional classification for the semantic information of the elements is included. In addition, we proposed a basic framework for actual modeling using bridge breakdown system and showed that it can be used in practice.

This paper presents face recognition algorithm using projection vector reflecting local feature for the area in contour lines. The outline shape of a face has many difficulties to distinguish people because human has similar face shape. For 3 dimensional(3D) face images include depth information, we can extract different face shapes from the nose tip using some depth values for a face image. In this thesis deals with 3D face image, because the extraction of contour lines from 2 dimensional face images is hard work. After finding nose tip, we extract two areas in the contour lilies from some depth values from 3D face image which is obtained by 3D laser scanner. And we propose a method of projection vector to localize the characteristics of image and reduce the number of index data in database. Euclidean distance is used to compare of similarity between two images. Proposed algorithm can be made recognition rate of 94.3% for face shapes using depth information.

Generally, the doctors manually delineated the prostate boundary seeing the image by their eyes, but the manual method not only needed quite much time but also had different boundaries depending on doctors. To reduce the effort like them the automatic delineating methods are needed, but detecting the boundary is hard to do since there are lots of uncertain textures or speckle noises. There have been studied in SVM, SIFT, Gabor texture filter, snake-like contour, and average-shape model methods. Besides, there were lots of studies about 2 and 3 dimension images and CT and MRI. But no studies have been developed superior to human experts and they need additional studies. For this, this paper proposes a method that delineates the boundary predicting its texture features and its average distribution on the prostate image. As result, we got the similar boundary as the method of human experts.
