This paper describes interpolation method of motion field in the Wyner-Ziv video coding (WZVC) based on Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm. In the EM algorithm, the estimated motion field distribution is calculated on a block-by-block basis. Each pixel in the block shares similar probability distribution, producing an undesired blocking artefact on the pixel-based motion field. The proposed interpolation techniques are Bicubic and Lanczos which successively use 16 and 32 neighborhood probability distributions of block-based motion field for one pixel in k-by-k block on pixel-based motion field. EM-based WZVC codec updates the estimated probability distribution on block-based motion field, and interpolates it to pixel resolution. This is required to generate higher-quality soft side information (SI) such that the decoding algorithm is able to make syndrome estimation more quickly. Our experiments showed that the proposed interpolation methods have the capability to reduce EM-based WZVC decoding complexity with small increment of bit rate.

This paper discusses a graphic user interface(GUI) for the concealed target segmentation. The human subject hiding a metal gun is captured by the passive millimeter wave(MMW) imaging system. The imaging system operates on the regime of 8 mm wavelength. The MMW image is analyzed by the multi-level segmentation to segment and identify a concealed weapon under clothing. The histogram of the passive MMW image is modeled with the Gaussian mixture distribution. LBG vector quantization(VQ) and expectation and maximization(EM) algorithms are sequentially applied to segment the body and the object area. In the experiment, the GUI is implemented by the MFC(Microsoft Foundation Class) and the OpenCV(Computer Vision) libraries and tested in real-time showing the efficiency of the system.

Network intrusion detection have been continuously improved by using data mining techniques. There are two kinds of methods in intrusion detection using data mining-supervised learning with class label and unsupervised learning without class label. In this paper we have studied the way of improving network intrusion detection accuracy by using LBG clustering algorithm which is one of unsupervised learning methods. The K-means method, that starts with random initial centroids and performs clustering based on the Euclidean distance, is vulnerable to noisy data and outliers. The nonuniform binary split algorithm uses binary decomposition without assigning initial values, and it is relatively fast. In this paper we applied the EM(Expectation Maximization) based LBG algorithm that incorporates the strength of two algorithms to intrusion detection. The experimental results using the KDD cup dataset showed that the accuracy of detection can be improved by using the LBG algorithm.

Traffic volume data is basic information that is used in a wide variety of fields. Existing missing traffic volume data imputation method did not take the effect on the rainfall. This research analyzed considering of the rainfall effect in missing traffic volume data imputation method. In order to consider the effect of rainfall, established the following assumption. When missing of traffic volume data generated in rainy days it would be more accurate to use only the traffic volume data of the past rainy days. To confirm this assumption, compared for accuracy of imputed results at three kinds of imputation method(Unconditional Mean, Auto Regression, Expectation-Maximization Algorithm). The analysis results, the case on consideration of the rainfall effect was more low error occurred.

상이한 자연현상으로 발생된 자료들은 때때로 통계적으로 다른 특성을 가지는 경우가 있다. 이런 자료들은 다른 두 개 이상의 모집단에서 자료가 발생한 것으로 가정할 수 가 있다. 기존에 널리 사용되어온 분포형 모형의 경우 단일한 모집단으로부터 자료가 발생한다는 가정하에서 개발된 모형들로 위에서 언급한 자료들을 적절히 모의할 수 없다. 이런 상이한 모집단에서 발생된 자료를 모형화 하기 위해서 혼합분포모형(mixture distribution)이 개발되었다. 홍수나 가뭄 등과 같은 극치 사상의 경우 다양한 자연현상들로부터 발생하기에 혼합분포모형을 적용할 경우 보다 정확한 모의가 가능하다. 혼합분포모형은 두 개 이상의 비혼합분포모형들을 가중합하여 만들어진다. 혼합 분포모형의 형태로 인하여 기존의 분포형 모형의 매개변수 추정 모형으로 널리 사용되던 최우도법 (maximum likelihood method), 모멘트법(method of moment), 확률가중모멘트법 (probability weighted moment method) 등을 이용하여 혼합분포모형의 매개변수를 추정하는 것이 용이 하지 않다. 혼합분포모형의 매개변수 추정 방법으로는 Expectation-Maximization (EM) 알고리즘, Meta-Heuristic Maximum Likelihood (MHML) 방법, Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) 방법 등이 적용되고 있다. 현재까지 수자원 분야에서 사용되는 극치 자료를 혼합분포모형을 이용하여 모의할 때 매개변수 추정방법에 따른 특성에 대한 연구가 진행되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 연최대강우량 자료를 이용하여 혼합분포모형의 매개변수 추정방법 (EM 알고리즘, MHML 방법, MCMC 방법) 들의 특성들을 비교 분석하였다. 혼합분포모형으로는 Gumbel-Gumbel 혼합분포 모형을 적용하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 혼합분포모형을 이용한 연구에 좋은 기초자료로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

With the development of mobile devices and global positioning systems, various location-based services can be utilized, which collects user's location information and provides services based on it. In this process, there is a risk of personal sensitive information being exposed to the outside, and thus Geo-indistinguishability (Geo-Ind), which protect location privacy of LBS users by perturbing their true location, is widely used. However, owing to the data perturbation mechanism of Geo-Ind, it is hard to accurately obtain the density distribution of LBS users from the collection of perturbed location data. Thus, in this paper, we aim to develop a novel method which enables to effectively compute the user density distribution from perturbed location dataset collected under Geo-Ind. In particular, the proposed method leverages Expectation-Maximization(EM) algorithm to precisely estimate the density disribution of LBS users from perturbed location dataset. Experimental results on real world datasets show that our proposed method achieves significantly better performance than a baseline approach.

In this letter, we propose a novel approach to improve the performance of speech/music classification for the selectable mode vocoder(SMV) of 3GPP2 using the Gaussian mixture model(GMM) which is based on the expectation-maximization(EM) algorithm. We first present an effective analysis of the features and the classification method adopted in the conventional SMV. And then feature vectors which are applied to the GMM are selected from relevant Parameters of the SMV for the efficient speech/music classification. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated under various conditions and yields better results compared with the conventional scheme of the SMV.

Estimating parameters of the lifetime distribution is investigated when field failure data are not completelyreported. To take into account the reality and the accuracy of the estimates in such a case, the failure reportingprobability is incorporated in estimating parameters, Firstly, method of maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) isused to estimate parameters of the lifetime distribution when failure reporting probability is known, Secondly,Expectation and Maximization (EM) algorithm is used to estimate the failure reporting probability and parame-ters of the lifetime distribution simultaneously when failure reporting probability is unknown. For both cases,procedures of estimation are illustrated for single Weibull distribution and mixed Weibull distribution. Simula-tion results show that MLE obtained by the proposed method is more accurate than the conventional MLE.

무인 주행 차량에 있어서, 포장 또는 비포장 도로의 시각적 추적은 매우 중요한 문제중의 하나이다. 따라서, 비디오 이미지로부터 비포장 도로를 추적할 수 있는 신속한 비젼 알고리즘의 개발이 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 칼만 필터와 EM(Expectation Maximization) 이론을 이용해 도로를 예측하고 시스템 파라미터를 갱신하는 방법을 제시한다. 시스템 파라미터, 도로 state, 도로 경계선, 그리고 모든 과거 데이터들을 각각 EM 파라미터, hidden data, incomplete data와 complete data로 정의함으로서 도로 state를 예측하고 시스템 파라미터를 추정할 수 있는 시간 회귀적 수식을 유도해 낼 수 있다. 이러한 방법을 이용하여 도로 state는 칼만 필터에 의해 매 프레임마다 예측되며, 시스템 파라미터들은 주기적으로 갱신되는 것이다. 결과적으로 이 방법은 주변환경과 날씨에 많은 영향을 받는 도로의 모양과 특징을 잘 찾아낼 수 있다. 또한 도로의 다음 state를 예측할 수 있는 점을 이용하면 계산량을 줄일 수 있으므로 실시간 구현에 용이하다. 이와 같은 방법으로 우리는 0.1 sec/frame 처리속도를 보장하는 도로추적 시스템을 구현하였다.

In the case of "nonignorable missing data", it is necessary to assume a model dealing with the missing on each situations. In this article, for example, we sometimes meet situations where data set are income amounts in a survey of individuals and assume a model as the values are the larger, a missing data probability is the higher. The method is to maximize using the EM(Expectation and Maximization) algorithm based on the (missing data) mechanism that creates missing data of the case of exponential distribution. The method started from any initial values, and converged in a few iterations. We changed the missing data probability and the artificial data size to show the estimated accuracy. Then we discuss the properties of estimates.
