  • The cognitive radio communication is taking the attentions because the development of the technique came to be possible to analyze wireless signals. In the IEEE 802.22 WRAN Systems[1], how to detect a spectrum and signals is continuously studied. In this paper, we propose the efficient signal detection method using SCF (Spectral Correlation Function). It is easy to detect the signal feature when we are using the SCF. Because most modulated signals have the cyclo-stationarity which is unique for each signal. But the fading channel effected serious influence even though it detects the feature of the signal. We applied LMS(Least Mean Square) filter for the compensation of the signal which is effected the serious influence in the fading channel. And we analyze some signal patterns through the SCF. And we show the unique signal feature of each signal through the SCF method. It is robust for low SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) environment and we can distinguish it in the fading channel using LMS Filter.

  • This paper describes a new iris recognition method based on a shift-invariant wavelet sub-images. For the feature representation, we first preprocess an iris image for the compensation of the variation of the iris and for the easy implementation of the wavelet transform. Then, we decompose the preprocessed iris image into multiple subband images using a shift-invariant wavelet transform. For feature representation, we select a set of subband images, which have rich information for the classification of various iris patterns and robust to noises. In order to reduce the size of the feature vector, we quantize. each pixel of subband images using the Lloyd-Max quantization method Each feature element is represented by one of quantization levels, and a set of these feature element is the feature vector. When the quantization is very coarse, the quantized level does not have much information about the image pixel value. Therefore, we define a new similarity measure based on mutual information between two features. With this similarity measure, the size of the feature vector can be reduced without much degradation of performance. Experimentally, we show that the proposed method produced superb performance in iris recognition.

  • Cepstral Mean Subtraction (CMS) makes effectively compensation for a channel distortion, but there are some shortcomings such as distortions of feature parameters, waiting for the whole speech sentence. By assuming that the silence parts have the channel characteristics, we consider the channel normalization using subtraction of cepstral means which are only obtained in the silence areas. If the considered techniques are successfully used for the channel compensation, the proposed method can be used for real time processing environments or time important areas. In the experiment result, however, the performance of our method is not good as CMS technique. From the analysis of the results, we found potentiality of the proposed method and will try to find the technique reducing the gap between CMS and ours method.

  • In this paper, we proposed the compensation technique that overcomes the limitations of the conventional approaches through summing up the bias terms between world's codebook and individual codebook vectors of feature parameters. But, mean compensation without condition can bring higher false acceptance. Therefore, the proposed technique compensates the channel mis-match condition by weighted bias sum using nonlinear function regarding to the distortion between speech and silence. The simulation results show that the FRR (flase reject rate) is decreased 14.95% when the proposed algorithm was applied.

  • The machining-chatter stands for a sudden relative vibration appeared between a material and a tool while processing with a machine. This chatter is key factor that seriously affects the quality of processed materials as well as being a factor which causes serious damages to the tool and the machine. This study is related to the monitoring and smart control of chatter problem that can compensate machining-chatter faster and produce processed goods with more precision by autonomous compensation. The above-mentioned machining-chatter compensator includes the chatter vibration sensor and the chatter compensator that estimates the compensation value according to the sensor detecting the chatter vibration of machine-tool and the chatter vibration detected from the sensor while having a feature of being organized by interlocking with the machine-tool controller.

  • In this paper, a system that detects driver's drowsiness has been implemented based on the automatic extraction and the tracking of pupils. The research also focuses on the compensation of illumination and reduction of background noises that naturally exist in the driving condition. The system, that is based on the principle of Haar-like feature, automatically collects data from areas of driver's face and eyes among the complex background. Then, it makes decision of driver's drowsiness by using recognition of characteristics of pupils area, detection of pupils, and their movements. The implemented system has been evaluated and verified the practical uses for the prevention of driver's drowsiness.

  • This paper proposes a robust image-based visual servoing scheme using a nonlinear observer for a monocular eye-in-hand manipulator. The proposed control method is divided into a range estimation phase and a target-tracking phase. In the range estimation phase, the range from the camera to the target is estimated under the non-moving target condition to solve the uncertainty of an interaction matrix. Then, in the target-tracking phase, the feature point uncertainty caused by the unknown motion of the target is estimated and feature point errors converge sufficiently near to zero through compensation for the feature point uncertainty.

  • This paper proposes a matching engine of query-by-singing/humming (QbSH) system which retrieves the most similar music information by comparing the input data with the extracted feature information from polyphonic music like MP3. The feature sequences transcribed from polyphonic music may have many errors. So, to reduce the influence of errors and improve the performance, the chroma-scale representation, compensation and asymmetric DTW (Dynamic Time Warping) are adopted in the matching engine. The performance of various distance metrics are also investigated in this paper. In our experiment, the proposed QbSH system achieves MRR (Mean Reciprocal Rank) of 0.718 for 1000 singing/humming queries when searching from a database of 450 polyphonic musics.

  • This paper examines the implementation of automatic compensation modules for digital camera image when a person is closing his/her eyes. The modules detect the face and eye region and then recognize the eye state. If the image is taken when a person is closing his/her eyes, the function corrects the eye and produces the image by using the most satisfactory image of the eye state among the past frames stored in the buffer. In order to recognize the face and eye precisely, the pre-process of image correction is carried out using SURF algorithm and Homography method. For the detection of face and eye region, Haar-like feature algorithm is used. To decide whether the eye is open or not, similarity comparison method is used along with template matching of the eye region. The modules are tested in various facial environments and confirmed to effectively correct the images containing faces.

  • Odometry is the critical factor to estimate the location of the robot. In the mobile robot with wheels, odometry can be performed using the information from the encoder. However, the information of location in the encoder is inaccurate because of the errors caused by the wheel's alignment or slip. In general, visual odometer has been used to compensate for the kinetic errors of robot. In case of using the visual odometry under some robot system, the kinetic analysis is required for compensation of errors, which means that the conventional visual odometry cannot be easily applied to the implementation of the other type of the robot system. In this paper, the novel visual odometry, which employs only the single camera toward the ground, is proposed. The camera is mounted at the center of the bottom of the mobile robot. Feature points of the ground image are extracted by using median filter and color contrast filter. In addition, the linear and angular vectors of the mobile robot are calculated with feature points matching, and the visual odometry is performed by using these linear and angular vectors. The proposed odometry is verified through the experimental results of driving tests using the encoder and the new visual odometry.
