In this paper, a method for improving the defect classification performance in low contrast, ununiformity and featureless steel plate surfaces has been studied based on deep convolution neural network and transfer-learning neural network. The steel plate surface images have low contrast, ununiformity, and featureless, so that the contrast between defect and defect-free regions are not discriminated. These characteristics make it difficult to extract the feature of the surface defect image. A classifier based on a deep convolution neural network is constructed to extract features automatically for effective classification of images with these characteristics. As results of the experiment, AlexNet-based transfer-learning classifier showed excellent classification performance of 99.43% with less than 160 seconds of training time. The proposed classification system showed excellent classification performance for low contrast, ununiformity, and featureless surface images.

In this study, we propose a machine vision system with a high object recognition rate. By utilizing a multiple-exposure image sensing technique, the proposed deep learning-based machine vision system can cover a wide light intensity range without further learning processes on the various light intensity range. If the proposed machine vision system fails to recognize object features, the system operates in a multiple-exposure sensing mode and detects the target object that is blocked in the near dark or bright region. Furthermore, short- and long-exposure images from the multiple-exposure sensing mode are synthesized to obtain accurate object feature information. That results in the generation of a wide dynamic range of image information. Even with the object recognition resources for the deep learning process with a light intensity range of only 23 dB, the prototype machine vision system with the multiple-exposure imaging method demonstrated an object recognition performance with a light intensity range of up to 96 dB.

Recently, deep neural networks (DNNs) are actively used for action control so that an autonomous system, such as the robot, can perform human-like behaviors and operations. Unlike recognition tasks, the real-time operation is essential in action control, and it is too slow to use remote learning on a server communicating through a network. New learning techniques, such as reinforcement learning (RL), are needed to determine and select the correct robot behavior locally. In this paper, we propose an energy-efficient DNN processor with a LUT-based processing engine and near-zero skipper. A CNN-based facial emotion recognition and an RNN-based emotional dialogue generation model is integrated for natural HRI system and tested with the proposed processor. It supports 1b to 16b variable weight bit precision with and 57.6% and 28.5% lower energy consumption than conventional MAC arithmetic units for 1b and 16b weight precision. Also, the near-zero skipper reduces 36% of MAC operation and consumes 28% lower energy consumption for facial emotion recognition tasks. Implemented in 65nm CMOS process, the proposed processor occupies 1784×1784 um2 areas and dissipates 0.28 mW and 34.4 mW at 1fps and 30fps facial emotion recognition tasks.

Recent advances in deep learning technology have improved image recognition performance in the field of computer vision, and serverless computing is emerging as the next generation cloud computing technology for event-based cloud application development and services. Attempts to use deep learning and serverless computing technology to increase the number of real-world image recognition services are increasing. Therefore, this paper describes how to develop an efficient deep learning based image recognition service system using serverless computing technology. The proposed system suggests a method that can serve large neural network model to users at low cost by using AWS Lambda Server based on serverless computing. We also show that we can effectively build a serverless computing system that uses a large neural network model by addressing the shortcomings of AWS Lambda Server, cold start time and capacity limitation. Through experiments, we confirmed that the proposed system, using AWS Lambda Serverless Computing technology, is efficient for servicing large neural network models by solving processing time and capacity limitations as well as cost reduction.

Indoor positioning system becomes of increasing interests due to the demands for accurate indoor location information where Global Navigation Satellite System signal does not approach. Wi-Fi access points (APs) built in many construction in advance helps developing a Wi-Fi Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) based indoor localization. This localization method first collects pairs of position and RSSI measurement set, which is called fingerprint database, and then estimates a user's position when given a query measurement set by comparing the fingerprint database. The challenge arises from nonlinearity and noise on Wi-Fi RSSI measurements and complexity of handling a large amount of the fingerprint data. In this paper, machine learning techniques have been applied to implement Wi-Fi based localization. However, most of existing indoor localizations focus on single position estimation. The main contribution of this paper is to develop multi-target localization by using deep neural, which is beneficial when a massive crowd requests positioning service. This paper evaluates the proposed multilocalization based on deep learning from a multi-story building, and analyses its learning effect as increasing number of target positions.

In this study, with the goal of developing a deep learning-based product recommendation model for effective matching of influencers and products, a deep learning model with a collaborative filtering model combined with generalized matrix decomposition(GMF), a collaborative filtering model based on multi-layer perceptron (MLP), and neural collaborative filtering and generalized matrix Factorization (NeuMF), a hybrid model combining GMP and MLP was developed and tested. In particular, we utilize one-class problem free boosting (OCF-B) method to solve the one-class problem that occurs when training is performed only on positive cases using implicit feedback in the deep learning-based collaborative filtering recommendation model. In relation to model selection based on overall experimental results, the MLP model showed highest performance with weighted average precision, weighted average recall, and f1 score were 0.85 in the model (n=3,000, term=15). This study is meaningful in practice as it attempted to commercialize a deep learning-based recommendation system where influencer's promotion data is being accumulated, pactical personalized recommendation service is not yet commercially applied yet.

Deep Learning is a useful method for classifying and recognizing complex data such as images and text, and the accuracy of the deep learning method is the basis for making artificial intelligence-based services on the Internet useful. However, the vast amount of user da vita used for training in deep learning has led to privacy violation problems, and it is worried that companies that have collected personal and sensitive data of users, such as photographs and voices, own the data indefinitely. Users cannot delete their data and cannot limit the purpose of use. For example, data owners such as medical institutions that want to apply deep learning technology to patients' medical records cannot share patient data because of privacy and confidentiality issues, making it difficult to benefit from deep learning technology. In this paper, we have designed a privacy preservation technique-applied deep learning technique that allows multiple workers to use a neural network model jointly, without sharing input datasets, in multi-party system. We proposed a method that can selectively share small subsets using an optimization algorithm based on modified stochastic gradient descent, confirming that it could facilitate training with increased learning accuracy while protecting private information.
