Human detection technologies are widely used in smart homes and autonomous vehicles. However, in order to detect human, autonomous vehicle researchers have used a high-resolution LIDAR and smart home researchers have applied a camera with a narrow detection range. In this paper, we propose a novel method using a low-cost and low-resolution LIDAR that can detect human fast and precisely without complex learning algorithm and additional devices. In other words, human can be distinguished from objects by using a new human characteristics function which is empirically extracted from the characteristics of a human. In addition, we verified the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm through a number of experiments.

This paper presents an automatic detection and removal method of red eye in a color image. The method detects initial red eye region based on redness and geometric feature, and extracts final red eye region considering local characteristics around the initial red eye region. Red eye fur the foal red eye region is removed by soft based removal method. In the experiments, the proposed method improved the red eye detection and removal results than that of Willamowski and Csurka[1].

In this paper, a plane detection method using depth information is proposed. 3-D characteristics of a pixel are defined as a direction and length of a normal vector whose is calculated from a plane consisting of a local region centered on the pixel. Image coordinates of each pixel are transformed to 3-D coordinates in order to obtain the local planes. Regions of each plane are detected by calculating similarity of the 3-D characteristics. The similarity of the characteristics consists of direction and distance similarities of normal vectors. If the similarity of the characteristics between two adjacent pixels is enough high, the two pixels are regarded as consisting of same plane. Simulation results show that the proposed method using the depth picture is more accurate for detecting plane areas than the conventional method.

In order not to make the malwares be easily analyzed, the hackers apply various anti-reversing and obfuscation techniques to the malwares. However, as the more anti-revering techniques are applied to the malwares the more abnormal characteristics in the PE file's header which are not shown in the normal PE file, could be observed. In this letter, a new malware detection technique is proposed based on this observation. For the malware detection, we define the Characteristics Vector(CV) which can represent the characteristics of a PE file's header. In the learning phase, we calculate the average CV(ACV) of malwares(ACVM) and normal files(ACVN). To detect the malwares we calculate the 2 Weighted Euclidean Distances(WEDs) from a file's CV to ACVs and they are used to decide whether the file is a malware or not. The proposed technique is very fast and detection rate is fairly high, so it could be applied to the network based attack detection and prevention devices. Moreover, this technique is could be used to detect the unknown malwares because it does not utilize a signature but the malware's characteristics.

It is obvious that understanding the effects of shallow water environment of Korea is very important to guarantee the optimal performance of active sonar such as monostatic and bistatic sonar. For this reason, in this paper, we analyzed the detection performance characteristics for various depth deployments of sonar in summer, winter and water temperature inversion environments, which environments are frequently observed in shallow water of Korea such as the Yellow sea. To analyze only effects of water temperature structures on target detection performance, we applied range independent conditions for bottom, sea surface and water temperature characteristics. To understand the characteristics of detection performance, we conducted transmission loss and signal excess modeling. From the results, we were able to confirm the characteristics of detection performance of active sonar. In addition, we verified that operation depth of transmitter and receiver affects the detection performance. Especially in the water temperature inversion environment, it was confirmed that the shadow zone could be minimized and the detection range could be increased through bistatic operation.

Objectives : In most developed countries there has been a substantial decrease in the prevalence of dental caries in children of 12 years old over the past 40 years. This change in epidemiology highlights the importance of preventive management in dentistry. For successful management of early caries lesions, it is essential to detect and assess the pathological changes of dental caries. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the overview of International Caries Detection and Assessment System(ICDAS) criteria for the detection and assessment of early caries lesions by literature reviews. Methods : The author reviewed the MEDLINE search by the key words of 'caries assessment', 'caries detection', 'caries measurement', and 'ICDAS'. Results : This literature review provided an overview of International Caries Detection and Assessment System(ICDAS) criteria for the detection and assessment of early caries lesions. This article showed the principles, concept, and primary caries detection criteria of the ICDAS. The ICDAS can macroscopically measure the enamel surface changes and potential histological depth of caries lesions by the surface characteristics of the teeth. The ICDAS criteria allow researchers and clinicians to choose the stage of dental caries and characteristics for assessment. Conclusions : ICDAS can be an adjunct method to clinical decision making and preventive treatment planning.

As digital image processing technologies are developing, edges are being utilized in various areas. In the existing edge detection methods, there are mask methods which utilize Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, Laplacian operator etc. To realize these existing edge detection methods is simple. But, in case that AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise) added images are processed, edge detection characteristics are slightly insufficient. Therefore, the edge detection algorithm using the standard deviation of local mask was suggested in this paper to compensate for the drawbacks in the existing detection methods and the suggested algorithm in AWGN environments showed excellent edge detection characteristics.

Leakage detection system can possibly locate leak point without laboratory analysis. Several different types of sensors provide these benefits. But the use of these technologies is not widespread, mainly because of cost. Each of the leakage detection systems available has different advantages and disadvantages. The ideal system would be affordable, durable enough to last through the life of the landfill, automated, and applicable to all types of landfills. The laboratory tests were performed to investigate the relationship between electrical resistivity and the unsaturated subsurface condition and to evaluate the contamination due to leachate based on measuring electrical resistivity. The results of experiment show that the electrical resistivity of soil decreases as moisture density increases. The electrical resistivity of soil decreases as the concentration of leachate in pore fluid increases. These facts indicate that electrical resistivity method can be a promising tool in detecting of leachate. Also, the field model tests were conducted to verify that detection of leachate leak point on detection system using electrical characteristics is accurate. Field model test results of leakage detection system imply that the leakage detection system using electrical characteristics have the great potential of detecting exactly the leak point of leachate.

This study proposed the analysis of mass position detection due to the change of the mass and stiffness of structure by using the original and modified dynamic characteristics. The method is applied to examples of a cantilever and 3 degree of freedom by modifying the mass. The predicted detection of mass positions and magnitudes are in good agreement with these from the structural reanalysis using the modified mass.
