In this paper, I proposed the INTelligent Agent System by Kohonen's Self Organizing Neural Network (INTAS). INTAS creates each user's profile from the information. Based on it, learning community grouping suitable to each individual is automatically executed by using unsupervised learning algorithm. In INTAS, grouping and learning are automatically performed on real time by multiagents, regardless of the number of learners. A new framework has been proposed to generate multiagents, and it is a feature that efficient multiagents can be executed by proposing a new negotiation mode between multiagents..

The naturally occurring plasmids of Vibrio species have been isolated in part to investigate their genetic traits. Among six different Vibrio species tested, Vibrio anguillarum, Vibrio fluvialis, Vibrio vulnficus, Vibrio mimicus and Vibrio furnissi did not show any presence of plasmid. One environmental isolate of Vibrio parahaemolyticus harboring plasmid was observed. The isolated plasmid was 8.7 kb by analysis with restriction endonuclease digestion. No common feature was shown relationships between the presence of plasmid and resistance against commonly used antibiotic compounds from the tested Vibrios.

In this paper, we propose the method of iris lacuna extraction using watershed transform. Lacuna is salient feature of iris. It has three dimensional structure formed by leak of pigmentation and loss of fiber tissues. Lacuna can be used for iris recognition system, and generally used in health diagnosis and character analysis with its shape and position. The main idea of the proposed method is applying the watershed transform to radial gray scale profile of iris image. The result shows that the lacuna can be extracted automatically from eye image.

As remote sensing is weighty in GIS updating, it is indispensable to get spatial information quickly and exactly. In this study, we have designed and implemented the program by two algorithms of GDPA (Gradient Direction Profile Analysis) and Hough transformation to extract linear features automatically from high-resolution imagery. We applied the software to embody both algorithms to KOMPSAT-EOC, IKONOS, and Landsat-ETM and made a comparative study of results.

The electronic nose (E-nose) recently finds its applications in medical diagnosis, specifically on detection of diabetes, pulmonary or gastrointestinal problem, or infections by examining odors in the breath or tissues with its odor characterizing ability. The odor recognition performance of E-nose can be improved by manipulating the sensor array responses of vapors in time-profile forms. The different chemical interactions between the sensor materials and the volatile organic compounds (VOC's) leave unique marks in the signal profiles giving more information than collection of the conventional piecemal features, i.e., maximum sensitivity, signal slopes, rising time. In this study, to use them in vapor recognition task conveniently, a novel time-profile method was proposed, which is adopted from digital image pattern matching. The degrees of matching between 8 different vapors were evaluated by using the proposed method. The test vapors are measured by the silicon-based gas sensor array with 16 CB-polymer composites installed in membrane structure. The results by the proposed method showed clear discrimination of vapor species than by the conventional method.

In this paper, an area-efficient feature extractor was proposed for security surveillance radar systems and FPGA-based implementation results were presented. In order to reduce the memory requirements, features extracted from Doppler profile for FFT window-size are used, while those extracted from total spectrogram for frame-size are excluded. The proposed feature extractor was design using Verilog-HDL and implemented with Xilinx Zynq-7000 FPGA device. Implementation results show that the proposed design can reduce the logic slice and memory requirements by 58.3% and 98.3%, respectively, compared with the existing research. In addition, security surveillance radar system with the proposed feature extractor was implemented and experiments to classify car, bicycle, human and kickboard were performed. It is confirmed from these experiments that the accuracy of classification is 93.4%.

Objective : This study was conducted to investigate the leisure activities and self-efficacy according to sensory processing feature of university students. Methods : The survey was conducted from March to June, 2018. A total of 235 university students in Jeolla and Gyeongsang area participated. We used Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profiles to investigate sensory processing feature, Leisure Activity Questionnaires to examine leisure activities, and Self-Efficacy Scale for self-efficacy. This study identified the frequency of leisure activities of university students, the frequency of leisure activities and self-efficiency according to the sensory processing feature, and the leisure activities according to the feature of sensory seeking. Results : For the frequency of leisure activities and self-efficacy according to sensory processing feature of university students, only sensory seeking showed significantly difference in the leisure activity frequency, and the self-efficacy was significantly difference according to the feature of all types of sensory processing (p<.05). In addition, this study identified that leisure activities according to the feature of sensory seeking showed a significantly difference in gym, watching TV, shopping, internet search and web surfing (p<.05, p<.01). Conclusion : According to sensory seeking feature of university students, leisure activities and self-efficacy showed a significant difference. In order to encourage leisure activities of university students and to improve their self-efficacy, an interventional approach based on an understanding of sensory processing characteristics will be needed.

This paper proposes a novel approach for the model-based pose matching of a human body using Active Shape Models. To improve the processing time of model creation and registration, we use a skeleton-type model instead of the conventional silhouette-based models. The skeleton model defines feature information that is used to match the human pose. Images used to make the model are for 600 human bodies, and the model has 17 landmarks which indicate the body junction and key features of a human pose. When applying primary Active Shape Models to the skeleton-type model in the matching process, a problem may occur in the proximal joints of the arm and leg due to the color variations on a human body and the insufficient information for the fore-rear directions of profile normals. This problem is solved by using the background subtraction information of a body region in the input image and adding a 4-directions feature of the profile normal in the proximal parts of the arm and leg. In the matching process, the maximum iteration is less than 30 times. As a result, the execution time is quite fast, and was observed to be less than 0.03 sec in an experiment.

The advancement of information technology and the popularization of Internet has explosively increased the amount of multimedia contents. Therefore, the requirement of multimedia recommendation to satisfy a user's needs increases fastly. Up to now, CF is used to recommend general items and multimedia contents. However, general CF doesn't reflect visual characteristics of image contents so that it can't be adaptable to image recommendation. Besides, it has limitations in new item recommendation, the sparsity problem, and dynamic change of user preference. In this paper, we present new image recommendation method FBCF (Feature Based Collaborative Filtering) to resolve such problems. FBCF builds new user profile by clustering visual features in terms of user preference, and reflects user's current preference to recommendation by using preference feedback. Experimental result using real mobile images demonstrate that FBCF outperforms conventional CF by 400% in terms of recommendation ratio.

In this paper, a new character segmentation algorithm of machine printed character recognition is proposed. The new approach of the proposed character segmentation algorithm overcomes the weak points of both feature-based approaches and recognition-based approaches in character segmentation. This paper defines side profiles of touching characters. The character segmentation algorithm gives a candidate single character in touching characters by side profiles, without any help of character recognizer. It segments touching characters and decides the candidate single character by side profiles. This paper also defines cutting cost, which makes the proposed character segmentation find an optimal segmenting path. The performance of the proposed character segmentation algorithm in this paper has been obtained using a real envelope reader system, which can recognize addresses in U.S. mail pieces and sort the mail pieces. 3359 mail pieces were tested. The improvement was from $68.92\%\;to\;80.08\%$ by the proposed character segmentation.
