  • To aim at improving performance and reflecting user's needs of retrieval, the number of researches has been actively conducted in recent year as the quantity of information and generation of the web pages exceedingly increase. One of alternative approaches can be a tagging system. It makes users be able to provide a representation of metadata including writings, pictures, and movies etc. called tag and be convenient in use of retrieval of internet resources. Tags similar to keywords play a critical role in maintaining target pages. However, they still needs time consuming labors to annotate tags, which sometimes are found to be a hinderance caused by overuse of tagging. In this paper, we present an automatic tagging scheme for a solution of current tagging system conveying drawbacks and inconveniences. To realize the approach, face recognition-based tagging system on SNS is proposed by building a face area detection procedure, linear-based classification and boosting algorithm. The proposed novel approach of tagging service can increase possibilities that utilized SNS more efficiently. Experimental results and performance analysis are shown as well.

  • Mirror is a physical reflective surface, typically of glass coated with a metal amalgam, and it is to reflect an image clearly. They are available everywhere anytime and become an essential tool for us to observe our faces and appearances. With the advent of modern software technology, we are motivated to enhance the reflection capability of mirrors with the convenience and intelligence of realtime processing, microservices, and machine learning. In this paper, we present a development of Digital Mirror System that provides the realtime reflection functionality as mirror while providing additional convenience and intelligence including personal information retrieval, public information retrieval, appearance age detection, and emotion detection. Moreover, it provides a multi-model user interface of touch-based, voice-based, and gesture-based. We present our design and discuss how it can be implemented with current technology to deliver the realtime mirror reflection while providing useful information and machine learning intelligence.

  • In this paper, we try to search and reproduce the image part of a specific cast from a large number of images. The conventional method must manually set the offset value when searching for a scene or viewing a corner. However, in this paper, the proposed method learns the main character 's face, then finds the main character in the image recognition and moves to the scene where the main character appears to reproduce the image. Data for specific performers is extracted and collected using crawl techniques. Based on the collected data, we learn using convolutional neural network algorithm and perform performance evaluation using it. The performance evaluation measures the accuracy by extracting and judging a specific performer learned in the extracted key frame while playing the drama. The performance confirmation of how quickly and accurately the learned scene is searched has obtained about 93% accuracy. Based on the derived performance, it is applied to the image service such as viewing, searching for person and detailed information retrieval per corner

  • In the modern rapid growing web era, the scope of web publication is about accessing the web resources. Due to the increased size of web, the search engines face many challenges, in indexing the web pages as well as producing result to the user query. Methodologies discussed in literatures towards clustering web documents suffer in producing higher clustering accuracy. Problem is mitigated using, the proposed scheme, Semantic Conceptual Relational Similarity (SCRS) based clustering algorithm which, considers the relationship of any document in two ways, to measure the similarity. One is with the number of semantic relations of any document class covered by the input document and the second is the number of conceptual relation the input document covers towards any document class. With a given data set Ds, the method estimates the SCRS measure for each document Di towards available class of documents. As a result, a class with maximum SCRS is identified and the document is indexed on the selected class. The SCRS measure is measured according to the semantic relevancy of input document towards each document of any class. Similarly, the input query has been measured for Query Relational Semantic Score (QRSS) towards each class of documents. Based on the value of QRSS measure, the document class is identified, retrieved and ranked based on the QRSS measure to produce final population. In both the way, the semantic measures are estimated based on the concepts available in semantic ontology. The proposed method had risen efficient result in indexing as well as search efficiency also has been improved.

  • The life review means a process of appraising life of oneself and it is essential for finding the meaning of life in old age. The memoir writing is a kind of method of life review. The memoir writing program used in this study focused especially on enhancing the cognitive skills by providing priming and retrieval support for memory performance in reminiscing past experiences. All fourteen participants were healthy and normal community dwellers and attended four-month long programof memoir writing classes which are consisted of different themes for each week. The aim of this study was to examine if the memoir writing program would render the positive effect on mental health and cognitive ability of the elderly. The results were that quality of life, life satisfaction, ego integrity of the participants showed positive change and the level of depression was significantly reduced compared to that of the control group. The findings in the present study suggest that the memoir writing can serve as one of the community initiative program to the growing population of the elderly for their emotional and cognitive challenges that they face everyday. To warrant the validity of the program, further study is needed for other sectors of elderly population, such as elderly living alone or those with both physical and/or cognitive disadvantages.

  • In this paper, an anchor shot detection method, which is a basic technology for managing news videos for index and retrieval purposes is proposed. To do that, two most popular news program such as 'KBS 9 Hour News' and 'MBC 9 Hour News' are analyzed and 4-step rule based detection method is proposed First, in the preprocessing, video shot boundaries are detected and the 1st frame of each shot is extracted as a key frame. Then, the detected shot is declared as an anchor shot, if all the following 4 conditions are satisfied. 1) There is an anchor face in the key frame of a shot. 2) Spatial distribution of edges in the key frame is adequate. 3) Background color information of the key frame is similar to the color information of an anchor model. 4) Motion rate in the shot is low. In order to show the validity of the proposed method, three 'KBS 9 Hour News' and three 'MBC 9 Hour News', which have total running time of 108 in minute and are broadcasted at different days, are used for experiments. Average detection rates showed 0.97 in precision, 1.0 in recall, and 0.98 in F-measure.

  • The explosive growth of the Internet leads to various on-line shopping malls and active E-Commerce. however, as the internet has experienced continuous growth, users have to face a variety and a huge amount of items, and often waste a lot of time on purchasing items that are relevant to their interests. To overcome this problem the comparison shopping systems, which can help to compare items' information with those other shopping malls, have been issued as a solution. However, when users do not have much knowledge what they want to find, a keyword-based searching in the existing comparison shopping systems lead users to waste time for searching information. Thereby, the performance is fell down. To solve this problem in this research, we suggest the Comparison Shopping System using Image Retrieval based on Semantic Web. The proposed system can assist users who don't know items' information that they want to find and serve users for quickly comparing information among the items. In the proposed system we use semantic web technology. We insert the Semantic Annotation based on Ontology into items' image of each shopping mall. Consequently, we employ those images for searching the items instead of using a complex keyword. In order to evaluate performance of the proposed system we compare our experimental results with those of Keyword-based Comparison Shopping System and simple Semantic Web-based Comparison Shopping System. Our result shows that the proposed system has improved performance in comparison with the other systems.
