This paper presents a method for detecting skin tumors on chicken carcasses using hyperspectral images. It utilizes both fluorescence and reflectance image information in hyperspectral images. A detection system that is built on this concept can increase detection rate and reduce processing time. Chicken carcasses are examined first using band ratio FCM information of fluorescence image and it results in candidate regions for skin tumor. Next classifier selects the real tumor spots using PCA components information of reflectance image from the candidate regions.

A content-base search method is required for video which has an unformatted and huge size of data. The index techniue is necessary for the content-based search of the video data. The first step of the video indexing is a cut detection. We propose a dynamic threshold method which change a threshold value during the cut detection process. We demonstrate that the proposed method is more efficient than the existing methods.

This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively.

Smoke detection is helpful for early fire detection. With its large coverage area and low cost, vision-based smoke detection technology is the main research direction of outdoor smoke detection. We propose a two-stage smoke detection method combined with block Deep Normalization and Convolutional Neural Network (DNCNN) and visual change image. In the first stage, each suspected smoke region is detected from each frame of the images by using block DNCNN. According to the physical characteristics of smoke diffusion, a concept of visual change image is put forward in this paper, which is constructed by the video motion change state of the suspected smoke regions, and can describe the physical diffusion characteristics of smoke in the time and space domains. In the second stage, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is used to classify the Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) features of visual change images of the suspected smoke regions, in this way to reduce the false alarm caused by the smoke-like objects such as cloud and fog. Simulation experiments are carried out on two public datasets of smoke. Results show that the accuracy and recall rate of smoke detection are high, and the false alarm rate is much lower than that of other comparison methods.

This paper presents a comparative analysis on three different types of performance indices of obstacle detection for an overlapped ultrasonic sensor ring. Due to beam overlap, the entire sensing zone of each ultrasonic sensor can be divided into three smaller sensing subzones, which leads to significant reduction of positional uncertainty in obstacle detection. First, the positional uncertainty in obstacle detection is expressed in terms of the area of a sensing subzone, and type 1 performance index is then defined as the area ratio of side and center sensing subzones. Second, based on the area of a sensing subzone, type 2 performance index is defined taking into account the size of the entire range of obstacle detection as well as the degree of the positional uncertainty in obstacle detection. Third, the positional uncertainty in obstacle detection is now expressed in terms of the length of the uncertainty arc spanning a sensing subzone, and type 3 performance index is then defined as the average value of the uncertainty arc lengths over the entire range of obstacle detection. Fourth, using a commercial low directivity ultrasonic sensor, the changes of three different performance indices depending on the parameter of an overlapped ultrasonic sensor ring are examined and compared.

This paper presents a detection algorithm that accurately finds the active area of a video player on monitors or smart TVs. Unlike the previous approaches, temporal difference-based detection algorithms or hooking programs, the proposed detection algorithm can locate the active video player by using the spatial and temporal correlation and a corner detection filter. First, an initial location of the video player is found using conventional temporal difference-based detection. Then, starting from the initial location, the four corners of the active video player are detected by the spatial edge information and the corner detection filter. The experimental results show that proposed algorithm provides fast detection speed and high accuracy.

In this study, two aspects were analyzed about the robot for removal of explosive devices. First, the cost analyses were performed to provide a reasonable solution for the acquirement of the system. It is processed by an engineering estimate method and the process was consisted of two ways : a system development expense and a mass production unit price. In additions, the resultant cost analyses were compared between the cases excluding and including a mines detection system. As results, in the case of the acquirement of the robot system for removal of explosive devices, it is recommended that the performance by improving the mines detection ability should be considered preferentially rather than the cost because the material cost for the mines detection system is negligible compared to the whole system cost. Second, as a way for improving the system performance by the mine detection function, the carbon nanotube (CNT) based sensor technology was studied in terms of sensitivity and simple productivity with presenting its preliminary experimental results. The detection electrodes were formed by a photolithography method using a photosensitive CNT paste. As results, this method was shown as a scalable and expandable technology for the excellent mines detection sensors.

This paper is about the development of an insole sensor system that can determine the model of an exoskeleton robot for lower limb that is a multi-degree of freedom system. First, the study analyzed the kinematic model of an exoskeleton robot for the lower limb that changes according to the gait phase detection of a human. Based on the ground reaction force (GRF), which is generated when walking, to proceed with insole sensor development, the sensing type, location, and the number of sensors were selected. The center of pressure (COP) of the human foot was understood first, prior to the development of algorithm. Using the COP, an algorithm was developed that is capable of detecting the gait phase with small number of sensors. An experiment at 3 km/h speed was conducted on the developed sensor system to evaluate the developed insole sensor system and the gait phase detection algorithm.

Finding a planar surface on 3D space is very important for efficient and safe operation of a mobile robot. In this paper, we propose a method using a plane detection cell (PDC) and iterative randomized Hough transform (IRHT) for finding the planar region from a 3D range image. First, the local planar region is detected by a PDC from the target area of the range image. Each plane is then segmented by analyzing the accumulated peaks from voting the local direction and position information of the local PDC in Hough space to reduce effect of noises and outliers and improve the efficiency of the HT. When segmenting each plane region, the IRHT repeatedly decreases the size of the planar region used for voting in the Hough parameter space in order to reduce the effect of noise and solve the local maxima problem in the parameter space. In general, range images have many planes of different normal directions. Hence, we first detected the largest plane region and then the remained region is again processed. Through this procedure, we can segment all planar regions of interest in the range image.

This paper presents abnormal behavior detection in crowd within surveillance video. We have defined below two cases as a abnormal behavior; first as a sporadically spread phenomenon and second as a sudden running in same direction. In order to detect these two abnormal behaviors, we first extract the motion vector and propose a new descriptor which is combined MHOF(Multi-scale Histogram of Optical Flow) and DCHOF(Directional Change Histogram of Optical Flow). Also, binary classifier SVM(Support Vector Machine) is used for detection. The accuracy of the proposed algorithm is evaluated by both UMN and PETS 2009 dataset and comparisons with the state-of-the-art method validate the advantages of our algorithm.
