Recently, as the practical application and commercialization of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is pursued, interest in ensuring the safety of the UAV is increasing. Because UAV accidents can result in property damage and loss of life, it is important to develop technology to prevent accidents. For this reason, a technique to detect the abnormal flight state of UAVs has been developed based on the AutoEncoder model. However, the existing detection technique is limited in terms of performance and real-time processing. In this paper, we propose a U-Net based abnormal flight detection technique. In the proposed technique, abnormal flight is detected based on the increasing rate of Mahalanobis distance for the reconstruction error obtained from the U-Net model. Through simulation experiments, it can be shown that the proposed detection technique has superior detection performance compared to the existing detection technique, and can operate in real-time in an on-board environment.

In this paper, we provide an authentication technology for verifying dynamic signature made by finger on smart phone. In the proposed method, we are using the Auto-Encoder-based 1 class model in order to effectively distinguish skilled forgery signature. In addition to the basic dynamic signature characteristic information such as appearance and velocity of a signature, we use accelerometer value supported by most of the smartphone. Signed data is re-sampled to give the same length and is normalized to a constant size. We built a test set for evaluation and conducted experiment in three ways. As results of the experiment, the proposed acceleration sensor value and 1 class model shows 6.9% less EER than previous method.

This study aims to solve the problem of class imbalance in numerical data by using a deep learning-based Variational AutoEncoder and to improve the performance of the learning model by augmenting the learning data. We propose 'D-VAE' to artificially increase the number of records for a given table data. The main features of the proposed technique go through discretization and feature selection in the preprocessing process to optimize the data. In the discretization process, K-means are applied and grouped, and then converted into one-hot vectors by one-hot encoding technique. Subsequently, for memory efficiency, sample data are generated with Variational AutoEncoder using only features that help predict with RFECV among feature selection techniques. To verify the performance of the proposed model, we demonstrate its validity by conducting experiments by data augmentation ratio.

Passive sonar signals mainly contain both normal and abnormal signals. The abnormal signals mixed with normal signals are primarily detected using an AutoEncoder (AE) that learns only normal signals. However, existing AEs may perform inaccurate detection by reconstructing distorted normal signals from mixed signal. To address these limitations, we propose an abnormal signal detection model based on a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and vector quantization. The proposed model generates a codebook representing the learned latent vectors and detects abnormal signals more accurately through the proposed search process of code vectors. In experiments using publicly available underwater acoustic data, the AE and Variational AutoEncoder (VAE) using the proposed method showed at least a 2.4 % improvement in the detection performance and at least a 9.2 % improvement in the extraction performance for abnormal signals than the existing models.

The estimation of rice yield affects the income of farmers as well as the fields related to agriculture. Moreover, it has an important effect on the government's policy making including the control of supply demand and the price estimation. Thus, it is necessary to build the crop yield estimation model and from the past, many studies utilizing empirical statistical models or artificial neural network algorithms have been conducted through climatic and satellite data. Presently, scientists have achieved successful results with deep learning algorithms in the field of pattern recognition, computer vision, speech recognition, etc. Among deep learning algorithms, the SSAE (Stacked Sparse AutoEncoder) algorithm has been confirmed to be applicable in the field of forecasting through time series data and in this study, SSAE was utilized to estimate the rice yield in South Korea. The climatic and satellite data were used as the input variables and different types of input data were constructed according to the period of rice growth in South Korea. As a result, the combination of the satellite data from May to September and the climatic data using the 16 day average value showed the best performance with showing average annual %RMSE (percent Root Mean Square Error) and region %RMSE of 7.43% and 7.16% that the applicability of the SSAE algorithm could be proved in the field of rice yield estimation.

Botnets, whose attack patterns are becoming more sophisticated and diverse, are recognized as one of the most serious cybersecurity threats today. This paper revisits the experimental results of botnet detection using autoencoder, a semi-supervised deep learning model, for UGR and CTU-13 data sets. To prepare the input vectors of autoencoder, we create data points by grouping the NetFlow records into sliding windows based on source IP address and aggregating them to form features. In particular, we discover a simple power-law; that is the number of data points that have some flow-degree is proportional to the number of NetFlow records aggregated in them. Moreover, we show that our power-law fits the real data very well resulting in correlation coefficients of 97% or higher. We also show that this power-law has an impact on the learning of autoencoder and, as a result, influences the performance of botnet detection. Furthermore, we evaluate the performance of autoencoder using the area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve.

Loose parts monitoring and detecting alarm type in real Nuclear Power Plant have challenges such as background noise, insufficient alarm data, and difficulty of distinction between alarm data that occur during start and stop. Although many signal processing methods and alarm determination algorithms have been developed, it is not easy to determine valid alarm and extract the meaning data from alarm signal including background noise. To address these issues, this paper proposes a denoising autoencoder-based majority vote classification. Training and test data are prepared by acquiring alarm data from real NPP and simulation facility for data augmentation, and noisy data is reproduced by adding Gaussian noise. Using DAEs with 3, 5, 7, and 9 layers, features are extracted for each model and classified into neural networks. Finally, the results obtained from each DAE are classified by majority voting. Also, through comparison with other methods, the accuracy and the false alarm rate are compared, and the excellence of the proposed method is confirmed.

The number of elderly people with dementia is increasing as fast as the proportion of older people due to aging, which creates a social and economic burden. In particular, dementia care costs, including indirect costs such as increased care costs due to lost caregiver hours and caregivers, have grown exponentially over the years. In order to reduce these costs, it is urgent to introduce a management system to care for dementia patients. Therefore, this study proposes a sensor-based abnormal behavior detection system to manage dementia patients who live alone or in an environment where they cannot always take care of dementia patients. Existing studies were merely evaluating behavior or evaluating normal behavior, and there were studies that perceived behavior by processing images, not data from sensors. In this study, we recognized the limitation of real data collection and used both the auto-encoder, the unsupervised learning model, and the LSTM, the supervised learning model. Autoencoder, an unsupervised learning model, trained normal behavioral data to learn patterns for normal behavior, and LSTM further refined classification by learning behaviors that could be perceived by sensors. The test results show that each model has about 96% and 98% accuracy and is designed to pass the LSTM model when the autoencoder outlier has more than 3%. The system is expected to effectively manage the elderly and dementia patients who live alone and reduce the cost of caring.
