Augmented reality can help to improve user's engineering abilities such as perception and decision making in industry field. Therefore we have studied on the maintenance-supporting applications for inspectors previously. The advantage of pre-existing marker system is that the making and using are easier than any other feature tracking and detection methods. However it must to be exposed to the sufficient light to be detected by computer image processing. The most of industry field is not in clean environment and there are not sufficient light as well. So, the normal marker system is not appropriated for industrial fields. This paper suggests RFID-based marker system to improve marker-detection ability in our AR maintenance system. RFID is not implemented by image processing but it is implemented by electromagnetic induction. Therefore we could more precisely detect markers even if the environment is low-light intensity condition.

Behavioral sequences of the medaka (Oryzias latipes) were continuously investigated through an automatic image recognition system in response to medaka treated with the insecticide and medaka not treated with the insecticide, diazinon (0.1 mg/l) during a 1 hour period. The observation of behavior through the movement tracking program showed many patterns of the medaka. After much observation, behavioral patterns were divided into four basic patterns: active-smooth, active-shaking, inactive-smooth, and inactive-shaking. The "smooth" and "shaking" patterns were shown as normal movement behavior. However, the "shaking" pattern was more frequently observed than the "smooth" pattern in medaka specimens that were treated with insecticide. Each pattern was classified using classification methods after the feature choice. It provides a natural way to incorporate prior knowledge from human experts in fish behavior and contains the information in a logical expression tree. The main focus of this study was. to determine whether the decision tree could be useful for interpreting and classifying behavior patterns of the medaka.

In this paper, we proposed a method for extracting predominant melody of polyphonic music based on harmonic structure. Harmonic structure is an important feature parameter of monophonic signal that has spectral peaks at the integer multiples of its fundamental frequency. We extract all fundamental frequency candidates contained in the polyphonic signal by verifying the required condition of harmonic structure. Then, we combine those harmonic peaks corresponding to each extracted fundamental frequency and assign a rank to each after calculating its harmonic average energy. We run pitch tracking based on the rank of extracted fundamental frequency and continuity of fundamental frequency, and determine the predominant melody. For the query by singing/humming (QbSH) task, we proposed Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) based matching engine. Our system reduces false alarm by combining the distances of multiple DTW processes. To improve the performance, we introduced the asymmetric sense, pitch level compensation, and distance intransitiveness to DTW algorithm.

This paper is a technical review of the research and development results of the Korea Nuclear Instrumentation and Control System (KNICS) project and Nu-Tech 2012 program. In these projects man-machine interface system architecture, two digital platforms, and several control and protection systems were developed. One platform is a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) for a digital safety system and another platform is a Distributed Control System (DCS) for a non-safety control system. With the safety-grade platform PLC, a reactor protection system, an engineered safety feature-component control system, and reactor core protection system were developed. A power control system was developed based on the DCS. A logic alarm cause tracking system was developed as a man-machine interface for APR1400. Also, Integrated Performance Validation Facility (IPVF) was developed for the evaluation of the function and performance of developed I&C systems. The safety-grade platform PLC and the digital safety system obtained approval for the topical report from the Korean regulatory body in February of 2009. A utility and vendor company will determine the suitability of the KNICS and Nu- Tech 2012 products to apply them to the planned nuclear power plants.

In the field of computer vision and robotics, bin picking is an important application area in which object pose estimation is necessary. Different approaches, such as 2D feature tracking and 3D surface reconstruction, have been introduced to estimate the object pose accurately. We propose a new approach where we can use both 2D image features and 3D surface information to identify the target object and estimate its pose accurately. First, we introduce a label detection technique using Maximally Stable Extremal Regions (MSERs) where the label detection results are used to identify the target objects separately. Then, the 2D image features on the detected label areas are utilized to generate 3D surface information. Finally, we calculate the 3D position and the orientation of the target objects using the information of the 3D surface.

본 연구에서는 효과적인 손 제스처 인식을 위하여 다중 특징을 이용한 견고한 손 추적 방법을 제시한다. 기존의 많은 손추적 장치들이 칼라 정보나 모션 정보와 같은 단일한 정보를 바탕으로 손을 검출하고, 이를 바탕으로 손의 추적하는 방법들을 제시하고 있다. 이러한 방법들의 경우에는 손 추적 중에 환경이나 상황이 변하게 되면, 손추적의 정확도가 현저하게 떨어지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점들을 보완하기 위하여, Adaboost를 이용한 손 검출, 역투영을 기반으로 손 색상을 이용한 추적, KLT를 바탕으로 한 모션 추적을 이용한 검출을 동시에 수행하며, 각 센서의 추적 결과에 대한 칼만 필터 적용뿐 아니라, 각 센서 정보를 통합하여 견고한 결과를 얻기 위한 방법을 제시한다. 이를 바탕으로 손제스처 인식 시스템을 개발하였으며, 개발된 제스처 인식을 바탕으로 비디오 플레이를 제어하는 시스템을 구현하였다.

In human activity recognition system both static and motion information play crucial role for efficient and competitive results. Most of the existing methods are insufficient to extract video features and unable to investigate the level of contribution of both (Static and Motion) components. Our work highlights this problem and proposes Static-Motion fused features descriptor (SMFD), which intelligently leverages both static and motion features in the form of descriptor. First, static features are learned by two-stream 3D convolutional neural network. Second, trajectories are extracted by tracking key points and only those trajectories have been selected which are located in central region of the original video frame in order to to reduce irrelevant background trajectories as well computational complexity. Then, shape and motion descriptors are obtained along with key points by using SIFT flow. Next, cholesky transformation is introduced to fuse static and motion feature vectors to guarantee the equal contribution of all descriptors. Finally, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network is utilized to discover long-term temporal dependencies and final prediction. To confirm the effectiveness of the proposed approach, extensive experiments have been conducted on three well-known datasets i.e. UCF101, HMDB51 and YouTube. Findings shows that the resulting recognition system is on par with state-of-the-art methods.

The TXS0506+056 is a blazar and counterpart of the neutrino event IceCube-170922A. It is the first time that the neutrino event and flaring event in electromagnetic wave (EM) coincided. We observed TXS0506+056 with medium-bands in optical using 0.25m and 2.1m telescope at McDonald observatory about a month after the neutrino event. We tracked the variability of SED of the target for three weeks, and our observation showed no abrupt variability in optical range during this period. We concluded that a month after the neutrino event, the TXS0506+056 became less active and shows no feature of the energetic event. We also concluded that the medium-bands are well suited for tracking SEDs of objects. Our result demonstrates the potential of the wide-field 0.25m telescope (5.5 deg^2) for finding transient objects and track the variability of sources like AGNs.

High-voltage isolating switches play a paramount role in ensuring the safety of power supply systems. However, their exposure to outdoor environmental conditions may cause serious physical defects, which may result in great risk to power supply systems and society. Image processing-based methods have been used for anomaly detection. However, their accuracy is affected by numerous uncertainties due to manually extracted features, which makes the anomaly detection of isolating switches still challenging. In this paper, a vision-based anomaly detection method for isolating switches, which uses the rotational angle of the switch system for more accurate and direct anomaly detection with the help of deep learning (DL) and image processing methods (Single Shot Multibox Detector (SSD), improved frame differencing method, and Hough transform), is proposed. The SSD is a deep learning method for object classification and localization. In addition, an improved frame differencing method is introduced for better feature extraction and a hough transform method is adopted for rotational angle calculation. A number of experiments are conducted for anomaly detection of single and multiple switches using video frames. The results of the experiments demonstrate that the SSD outperforms the You-Only-Look-Once network. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method have been proven under various conditions, such as different illumination and camera locations using 96 videos from the experiments.

This paper shows the application of P-N Learning [4] method in the soccer ball detection and improvement for increasing the speed of processing. In the P-N learning, the learning process is guided by positive (P) and negative (N) constraints which restrict the labeling of the unlabeled data, identify examples that have been classified in contradiction with structural constraints and augment the training set with the corrected samples in an iterative process. But for the long-view in the soccer game, P-N learning will produce so many ferns that more time is spent than other methods. We propose that color histogram of each frame is constructed to delete the unnecessary details in order to decreasing the number of feature points. We use the mask to eliminate the gallery region and Line Hough Transform to remove the line and adjust the P-N learning's parameters to optimize accurate and speed.
