This paper presents a vision-based fall detection system to automatically monitor and detect people's fall accidents, particularly those of elderly people or patients. For video analysis, the system should be able to extract both spatial and temporal features so that the model captures appearance and motion information simultaneously. Our approach is based on 3-dimensional convolutional neural networks, which can learn spatiotemporal features. In addition, we adopts a thermal camera in order to handle several issues regarding usability, day and night surveillance and privacy concerns. We design a pan-tilt camera with two actuators to extend the range of view. Performance is evaluated on our thermal dataset: TCL Fall Detection Dataset. The proposed model achieves 90.2% average clip accuracy which is better than other approaches.

This paper presents a novel convolutional neural network based multi-feature fusion learning method for non-rigid 3D model retrieval, which can investigate the useful discriminative information of the heat kernel signature (HKS) descriptor and the wave kernel signature (WKS) descriptor. At first, we compute the 2D shape distributions of the two kinds of descriptors to represent the 3D model and use them as the input to the networks. Then we construct two convolutional neural networks for the HKS distribution and the WKS distribution separately, and use the multi-feature fusion layer to connect them. The fusion layer not only can exploit more discriminative characteristics of the two descriptors, but also can complement the correlated information between the two kinds of descriptors. Furthermore, to further improve the performance of the description ability, the cross-connected layer is built to combine the low-level features with high-level features. Extensive experiments have validated the effectiveness of the designed multi-feature fusion learning method.

Skeleton-based action recognition has attracted considerable attention in human action recognition. Recent methods for skeleton-based action recognition employ spatiotemporal graph convolutional networks (GCNs) and have remarkable performance. However, most of them have heavy computational complexity for robust action recognition. To solve this problem, we propose a shuffle graph convolutional network (SGCN) which is a lightweight graph convolutional network using pointwise group convolution rather than pointwise convolution to reduce computational cost. Our SGCN is composed of spatial and temporal GCN. The spatial shuffle GCN contains pointwise group convolution and part shuffle module which enhances local and global information between correlated joints. In addition, the temporal shuffle GCN contains depthwise convolution to maintain a large receptive field. Our model achieves comparable performance with lowest computational cost and exceeds the performance of baseline at 0.3% and 1.2% on NTU RGB+D and NTU RGB+D 120 datasets, respectively.

Neural Networks are widely used for huge variety of tasks solution. Machine Learning methods are used also for signal and time series analysis, including electrocardiograms. Contemporary wearable devices, both medical and non-medical type like smart watch, allow to gather the data in real time uninterruptedly. This allows us to transfer these data for analysis or make an analysis on the device, and thus provide preliminary diagnosis, or at least fix some serious deviations. Different methods are being used for this kind of analysis, ranging from medical-oriented using distinctive features of the signal to machine learning and deep learning approaches. Here we will demonstrate a neural network-based approach to this task by building an ensemble of 1D CNN classifiers and a final classifier of selection using logistic regression, random forest or support vector machine, and make the conclusions of the comparison with other approaches.

Recently, many researches have been conducted to estimate blood pressure using ECG(Electrocardiogram) and PPG(Photoplentysmography) signals. In this paper, we designed and implemented a mobile system to monitor blood pressure in real time by using 1-D convolutional neural networks. The proposed model consists of deep 11 layers which can learn to extract various features of ECG and PPG signals. The simulation results show that the more the number of convolutional kernels the learned neural network has, the more detailed characteristics of ECG and PPG signals resulted in better performance with reduced mean square error compared to linear regression model. With receiving measurement signals from wearable ECG and PPG sensor devices attached to the body, the developed system receives measurement data transmitted through Bluetooth communication from the devices, estimates systolic and diastolic blood pressure values using a learned model and displays its graph in real time.

This paper presents an approach for dynamic hand gesture recognition by using algorithm based on 3D Convolutional Neural Network (3D_CNN), which is later extended to 3D Residual Networks (3D_ResNet), and the neural network based key frame selection. Typically, 3D deep neural network is used to classify gestures from the input of image frames, randomly sampled from a video data. In this work, to improve the classification performance, we employ key frames which represent the overall video, as the input of the classification network. The key frames are extracted by SegNet instead of conventional clustering algorithms for video summarization (VSUMM) which require heavy computation. By using a deep neural network, key frame selection can be performed in a real-time system. Experiments are conducted using 3D convolutional kernels such as 3D_CNN, Inflated 3D_CNN (I3D) and 3D_ResNet for gesture classification. Our algorithm achieved up to 97.8% of classification accuracy on the Cambridge gesture dataset. The experimental results show that the proposed approach is efficient and outperforms existing methods.

In this paper, we propose a machine learning method for diagnosing the failure of a gas pressure regulator. Originally, when implementing a machine learning model for detecting abnormal operation of a facility, it is common to install sensors to collect data. However, failure of a gas pressure regulator can lead to fatal safety problems, so that installing an additional sensor on a gas pressure regulator is not simple. In this paper, we propose various machine learning approach for diagnosing the abnormal operation of a gas pressure regulator with only the flow rate and gas pressure data collected from a gas pressure regulator itself. Since the fault data of a gas pressure regulator is not enough, the model is trained in all classes by applying the over-sampling method. The classification model was implemented using Gradient boosting, 1D Convolutional Neural Networks, and LSTM algorithm, and gradient boosting model showed the best performance among classification models with 99.975% accuracy.

최근 Convolutional neural networks(CNN) 기반의 초해상화 기법인 Super-Resolution Convolutional Neural Networks (SRCNN) 이 좋은 PSNR 성능을 발휘하는 것으로 보고되었다 [1]. 하지만 많은 제안 방법들이 고주파 성분을 복원하는데 한계를 드러내는 것처럼, SRCNN 도 고주파 성분 복원에 한계점을 지니고 있다. 또한 SRCNN 의 네트워크 층을 깊게 만들면 좋은 PSNR 성능을 발휘하는 것으로 널리 알려져 있지만, 네트워크의 층을 깊게 하는 것은 네트워크 파라미터 학습을 어렵게 하는 경향이 있다. 네트워크의 층을 깊게 할 경우, gradient 값이 아래(역방향) 층으로 갈수록 발산하거나 0 으로 수렴하여, 네트워크 파라미터 학습이 제대로 되지 않는 현상이 발생하기 때문이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 네트워크 층을 깊게 하는 대신에, 입력을 다중 채널로 구성하여, 네트워크에 고주파 성분에 관한 추가적인 정보를 주는 방법을 제안하였다. 많은 초해상화 기법들이 고주파 성분의 복원 능력이 부족하다는 점에 착안하여, 우리는 네트워크가 고주파 성분에 관한 많은 정보를 필요로 한다는 것을 가정하였다. 따라서 우리는 네트워크의 입력을 고주파 성분이 여러 가지 강도로 입력되도록 저해상도 입력 영상들을 구성하였다. 또한 잔차신호 네트워크(residual networks)를 도입하여, 네트워크 파라미터를 학습할 때 고주파 성분의 복원에 집중할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 논문의 효율성을 검증하기 위하여 set5 데이터와 set14 데이터에 관하여 실험을 진행하였고, SRCNN 과 비교하여 set5 데이터에서는 2, 3, 4 배에 관하여 각각 평균 0.29, 0.35, 0.17dB 의 PSNR 성능 향상이 있었으며, set14 데이터에서는 3 배의 관하여 평균 0.20dB 의 PSNR 성능 향상이 있었다.

Recently, many researches have been actively to diagnose symptoms of heart disease using ECG signal, which is an electrical signal measuring heart status. In particular, the electrocardiogram signal can be used to monitor and diagnose arrhythmias that indicates an abnormal heart status. In this paper, we proposed 1-D convolutional neural network for arrhythmias classification systems. The proposed model consists of deep 11 layers which can learn to extract features and classify 5 types of arrhythmias. The simulation results over MIT-BIH arrhythmia database show that the learned neural network has more than 99% classification accuracy. It is analyzed that the more the number of convolutional kernels the network has, the more detailed characteristics of ECG signal resulted in better performance. Moreover, we implemented a practical application based on the proposed one to classify arrythmias in real-time.
