Recently, vision-based hand gesture recognition techniques have been developed for assisting elderly and disabled people to control home appliances. Frequently occurred problems which lower the hand gesture recognition rate are due to the inter-person variation and intra-person variation. The recognition difficulty caused by inter-person variation can be handled by using user dependent model and model selection technique. And the recognition difficulty caused by intra-person variation can be handled by using fuzzy logic. In this paper, we propose multivariate fuzzy decision tree learning and classification method for a hand motion recognition system for multiple users. When a user starts to use the system, the most appropriate recognition model is selected and used for the user.

The auxiliary reinforcement method is normally applied to prevent a possible collapse of the tunnel face where the ground condition is not favorable or geologic information is not sufficient. Recently, several engineering approaches have been made to choose the effective reinforcement methods using expert system such as neural network and fuzzy theory field, among others. Even if the expert system has offered many decision aid tools to properly select the reinforcement method, the quantitative assessment items are not easy to estimate and this is why the data mining technique, widely used in the field of social science, medical treatment, banking and agriculture, is introduced in this study. Using decision tree together with PDA, the decision aids for reinforcement method based on field construction data are created to derive the field rules and future study will be concentrated on the application of the proposed methods in a variety of underground development cases.

최근 하지가 불편한 노약자나 장애인이 집 안의 다양한 가전기기를 손쉽게 제어할 수 있게 하는 비전 기반의 손동작 인식 기술이 발전해 왔다. 다수의 사용자가 하나의 손동작 인식 시스템을 사용할 경우 사용자마다 손동작 특성이 모두 다르기 때문에 특정 사용자의 인식률이 저하되는 문제가 발생한다. 또한 동일한 사용자라 하더라도 시간에 따라 손동작 특성이 변화할 수 있다. 사용자마다 다른 손동작 특성은 모텔 학습 및 선택 기법을 사용해 효과적으로 다루어질 수 있다. 시간에 따라 변하는 사용자의 특성은 퍼지 개념을 이용해 효과적으로 다루어질 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 다변량 퍼지 의사결정트리를 이용해 사용자 별 인식모텔을 만드는 방법을 제시한다. 또한 새로운 사용자가 시스템을 사용할 경우 가장 적합한 모델을 선택해 인식에 사용하고 인식률을 측정한다.

In this paper, a model to evaluate the sustainability management for small and middle enterprises was suggested. Also, the if-then rules and its decision tree for pattern analysis which is obtained by fuzzy ID3 from the data of sustainability management were shown. The suggested model can be used for the evaluation tool of competition increasement of enterprises. If the enterprise can recognize that the evaluation rule can be taken advantage of the sustainability management pattern analysis using fuzzy ID3, it is expected that they can use the rule effectively for self evaluation.

We propose an algorithmic approach for handling linguistic values defined in the same linguistic variable. Using the proposed approach, we can explicitly capture the differences of individuals' subjectivity with respect to linguistic values defined in the same linguistic variable. The proposed approach can be employed as a useful tool for discovering hidden relationship among linguistic values defined in the same linguistic variable. Consequently, it provides a basis for improving the precision of knowledge acquisition in the development of fuzzy systems including fuzzy expert systems, fuzzy decision tree, fuzzy cognitive map, ok. In this paper, we apply the proposed approach to a collective linguistic assessment among multiple experts.

While increasing demand of the service for the disabled and the elderly people, assistive technologies have been developed rapidly. The natural signal of human such as voice or gesture has been applied to the system for assisting the disabled and the elderly people. As an example of such kind of human robot interface, the Soft Remote Control System has been developed by HWRS-ERC in $KAIST^[1]$. This system is a vision-based hand gesture recognition system for controlling home appliances such as television, lamp and curtain. One of the most important technologies of the system is the hand gesture recognition algorithm. The frequently occurred problems which lower the recognition rate of hand gesture are inter-person variation and intra-person variation. Intra-person variation can be handled by inducing fuzzy concept. In this paper, we propose multivariate fuzzy decision tree(MFDT) learning and classification algorithm for hand motion recognition. To recognize hand gesture of a new user, the most proper recognition model among several well trained models is selected using model selection algorithm and incrementally adapted to the user's hand gesture. For the general performance of MFDT as a classifier, we show classification rate using the benchmark data of the UCI repository. For the performance of hand gesture recognition, we tested using hand gesture data which is collected from 10 people for 15 days. The experimental results show that the classification and user adaptation performance of proposed algorithm is better than general fuzzy decision tree.
