Modular implementation of a feature is a first step toward feature-oriented product line engineering, which develops and then utilizes core assets to configure products in terms of features. Aspect-oriented programming provides effective mechanisms for improving the modularity of feature implementations. However, as features in general are not independent of each other, changes in the implementation of one feature may cause changes to or side effects in the implementation of other features. Moreover, since the time at which a feature is incorporated into products, called feature binding time, may be various from compile time through load time to run time, a feature may have to be implemented differently depending on when the feature is bound into a product. To make each feature implementation module as independent as possible, this paper proposes aspectual implementation patterns that can effectively separate feature dependencies as well as feature binding time from feature implementation modules. These patterns enable flexible composition of feature implementation modules without affecting other modules according to feature selection. The approaches are demonstrated and evaluated based on a product line of scientific calculator applications.

Corner detection and feature extraction are essential aspects of computer vision problems such as object recognition and tracking. Feature detectors such as Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) yields high quality features but computationally intensive for use in real-time applications. The Features from Accelerated Segment Test (FAST) detector provides faster feature computation by extracting only corner information in recognising an object. In this paper we have analyzed the efficient object detection algorithms with respect to efficiency, quality and robustness by comparing characteristics of image detectors for corner detector and feature extractors. The simulated result shows that compared to conventional SIFT algorithm, the object recognition system based on the FAST corner detector yields increased speed and low performance degradation. The average time to find keypoints in SIFT method is about 0.116 seconds for extracting 2169 keypoints. Similarly the average time to find corner points was 0.651 seconds for detecting 1714 keypoints in FAST methods at threshold 30. Thus the FAST method detects corner points faster with better quality images for object recognition.

Viewpoint-dependent feature-based modelling in computer-aided design is developed for the purposes of supporting engineering design representation and automation. The approach of this paper uses a combination of a multi-level modelling approach. This has two stages of mapping between models, and the multi-level model approach is implemented in three-level architecture. Top of this level is a feature-based description for each viewpoint, comprising a combination of form features and other features such as loads and constraints for analysis. The middle level is an executable representation of the feature model. The bottom of this multi-level modelling is a evaluation of a feature-based CAD model obtained by executable feature representations defined in the middle level. The mappings involved in the system comprise firstly, mapping between the top level feature representations associated with different viewpoints, for example for the geometric simplification and addition of boundary conditions associated with moving from a design model to an analysis model, and secondly mapping between the top level and the middle level representations in which the feature model is transformed into the executable representation. Because an executable representation is used as the intermediate layer, the low level evaluation can be active. The example will be implemented with an analysis model which is evaluated and for which results are output. This multi-level modelling approach will be investigated within the framework aimed for the design automation with a feature-based model.

소프트웨어 개발을 위한 모델링 방법 중 대표적인 것으로 UML을 이용한 방법이 있으며, 제품계열공학에서 소프트웨어의 재사용을 위한 모델링 방법으로 feature 모델링에 관한 연구가 진행 되고 있다. feature 모델링 방법은 잘 정의된 개발 기법을 제공하여 활용되고 있으나 다소 범용 적이지 않다. 또한 그 구조물이 UML과 상이하여 UML사용자가 feature 모델을 재사용하는 데는 어려움을 가지고 있고, feature 모델에서 class모델로의 변환을 제시한 기존연구는 도메인 전문가에 의해 경험적으로 모델링을 하기 때문에 모호성과 이해의 오류, 그리고 잘못된 해석 등의 문제가 발생 된다. 그리고, feature 모델과 class모델의 모든 요소를 매핑하여 변환하지 않는다는 점에서 완전하지 못하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Ontology를 이용하여 의미 기반의 명확한 명세를 통한 feature모델의 class 모델로의 변환기법을 제시하고, 이를 위해 feature 모델과 class 모델의 구조물의 요소를 정의하고 이를 기반으로 feature 모델과 OWL, 그리고 class 모델 속성간의 매핑 규칙을 제시하고, 본 논문에서 제시한 변환 프로세스를 이용하여 사례연구를 하였다.

Feature selection is one of the most challenging problems of pattern recognition and data mining. In this paper, a feature selection algorithm based on an improved version of binary differential evolution is proposed. The method simultaneously optimizes two feature selection criteria, namely, set approximation accuracy of rough set theory and relational algebra based derived score, in order to select the most relevant feature subset from an entire feature set. Superiority of the proposed method over other state-of-the-art methods is confirmed by experimental results, which is conducted over seven publicly available benchmark datasets of different characteristics such as a low number of objects with a high number of features, and a high number of objects with a low number of features.

In this paper, in order to avoid the deterioration of the pattern classification performance which results from the curse of dimensionality, we propose a new feature selection method. The newly proposed feature selection method is based on Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm which analyzes the data points to divide them into several clusters and the concept of a function with fuzzy numbers. When it comes to the concept of a function where independent variables are fuzzy numbers and a dependent variable is a label of class, a fuzzy number should be related to the only one class label. Therefore, a good feature is a independent variable of a function with fuzzy numbers. Under this assumption, we calculate the goodness of each feature to pattern classification problem. Finally, in order to evaluate the classification ability of the proposed pattern classifier, the machine learning data sets are used.

In this paper, we introduce the methodology that utilizes deep learning-based front-end to enhance underwater feature matching. Both optical camera and sonar are widely applicable sensors in underwater research, however, each sensor has its own weaknesses, such as light condition and turbidity for the optic camera, and noise for sonar. To overcome the problems, we proposed the opti-acoustic transformation method. Since feature detection in sonar image is challenging, we converted the sonar image to an optic style image. Maintaining the main contents in the sonar image, CNN-based style transfer method changed the style of the image that facilitates feature detection. Finally, we verified our result using cosine similarity comparison and feature matching against the original optic image.

Text data distribution is often imbalanced. Imbalanced data is one of the challenges in text classification, as it leads to the loss of performance of classifiers. Many studies have been conducted so far in this regard. The proposed solutions are divided into several general categories, include sampling-based and algorithm-based methods. In recent studies, feature selection has also been considered as one of the solutions for the imbalance problem. In this paper, a novel one-sided feature selection known as probabilistic feature selection (PFS) was presented for imbalanced text classification. The PFS is a probabilistic method that is calculated using feature distribution. Compared to the similar methods, the PFS has more parameters. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed method, the feature selection methods including Gini, MI, FAST and DFS were implemented. To assess the proposed method, the decision tree classifications such as C4.5 and Naive Bayes were used. The results of tests on Reuters-21875 and WebKB figures per F-measure suggested that the proposed feature selection has significantly improved the performance of the classifiers.

The classification and recognition of two-dimensional trademark patterns independently of their position, orientation, size and scale by proposing two feature vectors has been discussed. The paper presents experimentation on two feature vectors showing size- invariance and scale-invariance respectively. Both feature vectors are equally invariant to rotation as well. The feature extraction is based on local as well as global statistics of the image. These feature vectors have appealing mathematical simplicity and are versatile. The results so far have shown the best performance of the developed system based on these unique sets of feature. The goal has been achieved by segmenting the image using connected-component (nearest neighbours) algorithm. Second part of this work considers the possibility of using back propagation neural networks (BPN) for the learning and matching tasks, by simply feeding the feature vectosr. The effectiveness of the proposed feature vectors is tested with various trademarks, not used in learning phase.
