With the development of e-commerce and the proliferation of easily accessible information, information filtering has become a popular technique to prune large information spaces so that users are directed toward those items that best meet their needs and preferences. While many collaborative filtering systems have succeeded in capturing the similarities among users or items based on ratings to provide good recommendations, there are still some challenges for them to be more efficient, especially the user bias problem, non-transitive association problem and cold start problem. Those three problems impede us to capture more accurate similarities among users or items. In this paper, we provide probabilistic model approaches for UCHM and ICHM which are suggested to solve the addressed problems in hopes of achieving better performance. In this probabilistic model, objects (users or items) are classified into groups and predictions are made for users considering the Gaussian distribution of user ratings. Experiments on a real-word data set illustrate that our proposed approach is comparable with others.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid method which is mixed with frame selection and weighting model rank method, based on GMM(gaussian mixture model), for real-time text-independent speaker recognition system. In the system, maximum likelihood estimation was used for GMM parameter optimization, and maximum likelihood was used for recognition basically Proposed hybrid method has two steps. First, likelihood score was calculated with speaker models and test data at frame level, and the difference is calculated between the biggest likelihood value and second. And then, the frame is selected if the difference is bigger than threshold. The second, instead of calculated likelihood, weighting value is used for calculating total score at each selected frame. Cepstrum coefficient and regressive coefficient were used as feature parameters, and the database for test and training consists of several data which are collected at different time, and data for experience are selected randomly In experiments, we applied each method to baseline system, and tested. In speaker recognition experiments, proposed hybrid method has an average of 4% higher recognition accuracy than frame selection method and 1% higher than W method, implying the effectiveness of it.

Conventional GrabCut algorithm is semi-automatic algorithm that user must be set rectangle window surrounds the object. This paper studied automatic object detection to solve these problem by detecting salient region based on Human Visual System. Saliency map is computed using Lab color space which is based on color opposing theory of 'red-green' and 'blue-yellow'. Then Saliency Points are computed from the boundaries of Low-Frequency region that are extracted from Saliency Map. Finally, Rectangle windows are obtained from coordinate value of Saliency Points and these windows are used in GrabCut algorithm to extract objects. Through various experiments, the proposed algorithm computing rectangle windows of salient region and extracting objects has been proved.

The number of CCTV units is rapidly increasing annually, and the demand for intelligent video-analytics system is also increasing continuously for the effective monitoring of them. The existing analytics engines, however, require considerable computing resources and cannot provide a sufficient detection accuracy. For this paper, a light analytics engine was employed to analyze video and we collected metadata, such as an object's location and size, and the dwell time from the engine. A further data analysis was then performed to filter out the target of interest; as a result, it was possible to verify that a light engine and the heavy data analytics of the metadata from that engine can reject an enormous amount of environmental noise to extract the target of interest effectively. The result of this research is expected to contribute to the development of active intelligent-monitoring systems for the future.

Recently the terrors have been attempted in the public places of the nations such as United states, England and Japan by explosive things, toxic materials and so on. It is understood that the method in which dangerous objects are put in public places is one of the difficult types in detection. While there are the cameras recording videos for many spots in public places, it is very hard for the security personnel to monitor every videos. Nowadays the smart softwares which can analyzing videos automatically are utilized to detect abandoned objects. The method by Lin et al. shows comparatively high detection rates for abandoned objects but it is not easy to obtain the shape information because there is a tendency that the number of the pixels decreases abruptly along the time goes due to the characteristics of short-term background images. In this research a novel method is proposed to successfully extract the shape of the abandoned object by analysing the characteristics of area variation. The experiment results show that the proposed method has better performance in extracting shape information in comparison with the precedent approach.

In the car environment that the first priority is a safety problem, the large vocabulary isolated word recognition system with POI domain is required as the optimal HMI technique. For the telematics terminal with a highly limited processing time and memory capacity, it is impossible to process more than 100,000 words in the terminal by the general speech recognition methods. Therefore, we proposed phoneme recognizer using the phonetic GMM and also PDM Levenshtein distance with multi-layer architecture for the POI recognition of telematics terminal. By the proposed methods, we obtained high performance in the telematics terminal with low speed processing and small memory capacity. we obtained the recognition rate of maximum 94.8% in indoor environment and of maximum 92.4% in the car navigation environments.

This Paper is for A study of sensor fusion using Radar sensor and Vision sensor in moving object detection. Radar sensor has some problems to detect object. When the sensor moves by wind or that kind of thing, it can happen to detect wrong object like building or tress. And vision sensor is very useful for all area. And it is also used so much. but there are some weakness that is influenced easily by the light of the area, shaking of the sensor device, and weather and so on. So in this paper I want to suggest to fuse these sensor to detect object. Each sensor can fill the other's weakness, so this kind of sensor fusion makes object detection much powerful.

We proposed a realtime object tracking system that detects the abandoned or disappeared objects. Because these events are caused by human, we used the tracking based algorithm. After the background subtraction by Gaussian mixture model, the shadow removal is applied for accurate object detection. The static object is classified as either of abandoned objects or disappeared object. We assigned monitoring time to the static object to overcome a situation that it is being overlapped by other object. We obtained more accurate detection by using region growing method. We implemented our algorithm by DSP processor and obtained an excellent result throughout the experiment.

Millimeter wave (MMW) readily penetrates fabrics, thus it can be used to detect objects concealed under clothing. A passive MMW imaging system can operate as a stand-off type sensor that scans people in both indoors and outdoors. However, because of the diffraction limit and low signal level, the imaging system often suffers from low image quality. Therefore, suitable statistical analysis and computational processing would be required for automatic analysis of the images. In this paper, a real-time concealed object detection is addressed by means of the multi-level segmentation. The histogram of the image is modeled with a Gaussian mixture distribution, and hidden object areas are segmented by a multi-level scheme involving $k$-means, the expectation-maximization algorithm, and a decision rule. The complete algorithm has been implemented in C++ environments on a standard computer for a real-time process. Experimental and simulation results confirm that the implemented system can achieve the real-time detection of concealed objects.
