Abnormal operating sounds radiated from a moving transfer robot in LCD (liquid crystal display) product lines have been used for the fault detection line of a robot instead of other source signals such as vibrations, acoustic emissions, and electrical signals. Its advantage as a source signal makes it possible to monitor the status of multiple faults by using only a microphone, despite a relatively low sensitivity. The wavelet packet transform for feature extraction and the artificial neural network for fault classification are employed. It can be observed that the abnormal operating sound is sufficiently useful as a source signal for the fault diagnosis of mechanical components as well as other source signals.

This paper is the implementation of the conversion system from image to music based on intentional synesthesia. The input image based on color, texture, and shape was converted into melodies, harmonies and rhythms of music, respectively. Depending on the histogram of colors, the melody can be selected and obtained probabilistically to form the melody. The texture in the image expressed harmony and minor key with 7 characteristics of GLCM, a statistical texture feature extraction method. Finally, the shape of the image was extracted from the edge image, and using Hough Transform, a frequency component analysis, the line components were detected to produce music by selecting the rhythm according to the distribution of angles.

We propose a method to extract features optically from the input pattern by use of an array of Hough transfOllli filters. Here the subparts of the input pattern are Hough-transformed by. their cOlTesponding elements of the filter array independently and simultaneously. Compared with the conventional method, in which the whole input pattern is Hough-transformed by a single optical filter, the proposed method not only provides the improved optical transform results when the input pattern becomes complex but also extracts the approximate position information of the line segment features. To show the feasibility of this approach, we fabricated a $5\times5$ filter array and performed preliminary experiments.iments.

With the development of Internet technology, because traditional recommendation algorithms cannot learn the in-depth characteristics of users or items, this paper proposed a recommendation algorithm based on the AMITI(attention mechanism and improved TF-IDF) to solve this problem. By introducing the two-layer attention mechanism into the CNN, the feature extraction ability of the CNN is improved, and different preference weights are assigned to item features, recommendations that are more in line with user preferences are achieved. When recommending items to target users, the scoring data and item type data are combined with TF-IDF to complete the grouping of the recommendation results. In this paper, the experimental results on the MovieLens-1M data set show that the AMITI algorithm improves the accuracy of recommendation to a certain extent and enhances the orderliness and selectivity of presentation methods.

Point-based methods with experienced human operators are processed well in traditional photogrammetric activities but not the autonomous environment of digital photogrammetry. To develop more robust and accurate techniques, higher level objects of straight linear features accommodating element other than points are adopted instead of points in aerial triangulation. Even though recent advanced algorithms provide accurate and reliable linear feature extraction, extracting linear features is more difficult than extracting a discrete set of points which can consist of any form of curves. Control points which are the initial input data and break points which are end points of piecewise curves are easily obtained with manual digitizing, edge operators or interest operators. Employing high level features increase the feasibility of geometric information and provide the analytical and suitable solution for the advanced computer technology.

In current video-conferencing systems. user's face movements are restricted by fixed camera, therefore it is inconvenient to users. To solve this problem, tracking of face movements is needed. Tracking using whole face needs much computing time and whole face is difficult to define as an one feature. Thus, using several feature points in face is more desirable to track face movements efficiently. This paper addresses an effective eye location algorithm which is essential process of automatic human face tracking system for natural video-conferencing. The location of eye is very important information for face tracking, as eye has most clear and simplest attribute in face. The proposed algorithm is applied to candidate face regions from the face region extraction. It is not sensitive to lighting conditions and has no restriction on face size and face with glasses. The proposed algorithm shows very encouraging results from experiments on video-conferencing environments.

Human observers perceive a contour where no line or edge is given, such as the border between gratings of thin lines offset by half a cycle. Illusory contours occur in a wide variety of circumstances in nature. A common factor in all such figures is the perception of a surface or contour occluding part of a background, i.e. illusory contours are always accompanied by illusory surfaces. Some examples about these kinds of figures are given by Kanizsa's triangle or square. In this paper, we proposed a neural network model for forming(extracting) the illusory surfaces, based on the mechanism of feature extraction found in a mammals' visual pathway. It will be shown that the model can extract the illusory surfaces from illusory contours successfully.

POC(Phase-Only Correlation) is a useful method that can conduct face recognition without using feature extraction or eigenface, but uses Fourier transformation for square areas. In this paper, we propose an effective face area to increase the performance of face recognition using POC. Specifically, three areas are experimented for POC. The frist area is the square area that includes head and space. The second area is the square area from ear to ear horizontally and from the end of chin to the forehead vertically. The third area is the square area from the line under the lips to the forehead vertically and from cheek to cheek horizontally. Experimental results show that the second face area has the best advantage among the three types of areas to define the threshold for POC.

A spent fuel problem has prevented the nuclear power from claiming to be a completely clean energy source. The nuclear transmutation technology to incinerate the long lived radioactive nuclides and produce energy during the incineration process is believed to be one or the best solutions. HYPER(Hybrid Power Extraction Reactor) is the accelerator driven transmutation system which is being developed by KAERI(Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute). Some major feature of HYPER have been developed and employed. On-power fueling concepts are employed to keep system power constant with minimum variation of accelerator power. A hollow cylinder-type metal fuel is designed for the on-line refueling concept. Lead-bismuth(Pb-Bi) is adopted as a coolant and Spallation target material. HYPER is a subcritical reactor which needs an external neutron source. 1GeV proton beam is irradiated to Lead-bismuth(Pb-Bi) target inside HYPER, and spallation neutrons are produced. When proton beams are irradiated, much heat is also deposited in the Pb-Bi target and beam window which separates Pb-Bi and accelerator vacuum. Therfore, an effective cooling is needed for HYPER target. In this paper, we performed the thermal-hydraulic analysis of HYPER target using FLUENT code, and also calculated thermal and mechanical stress of the beam window using ANSYS code.

In this paper, we implemented a robust speech recognizer using the TMS320VC33 DSP. For this implementation, we had built speech and noise database suitable for the recognizer using spectral subtraction method for noise removal. The recognizer has an explicit structure in aspect that a speech signal is enhanced through spectral subtraction before endpoints detection and feature extraction. This helps make the operation of the recognizer clear and build HMM models which give minimum model-mismatch. Since the recognizer was developed for the purpose of controlling car facilities and voice dialing, it has two recognition engines, speaker independent one for controlling car facilities and speaker dependent one for voice dialing. We adopted a conventional DTW algorithm for the latter and a continuous HMM for the former. Though various off-line recognition test, we made a selection of optimal conditions of several recognition parameters for a resource-limited embedded recognizer, which led to HMM models of the three mixtures per state. The car noise added speech database is enhanced using spectral subtraction before HMM parameter estimation for reducing model-mismatch caused by nonlinear distortion from spectral subtraction. The hardware module developed includes a microcontroller for host interface which processes the protocol between the DSP and a host.
