Human have a notable ability to recognize faces, which is one of the most common visual feature in our environment. In regarding face pattern, just like other natural object, a geometrical interpretation of face is difficult to achieve. In this paper, we present wavelet based approach to extract the face features. Proposed approach is similar to the feature based scheme, where the feature is derived from the intensity data without detecting any knowledge of the significant feature. Topological graphs are involved to represent some relations between facial features. In our experiments, proposed approach is less sensitive to the intensity variation.

The statistical analysis of the feature extraction and the neural networks are proposed to recognize a human face. In the preprocessing step, the normalized skin color map with Gaussian functions is employed to extract the region of face candidate. The feature information in the region of the face candidate is used to detect the face region. In the recognition step, as a tested, the 120 images of 10 persons are trained by the backpropagation algorithm. The images of each person are obtained from the various direction, pose, and facial expression. Input variables of the neural networks are the geometrical feature information and the feature information that comes from the eigenface spaces. The simulation results of 10 persons show that the proposed method yields high recognition rates.

When manufacturing mold dies, an operation sheet is required for each part of the mold dies. The consistent estimation of standard operation time in the operation sheet is difficult, because the estimation is mainly based on subjective judgement. In order to resolve it, concept of feature is introduced in this study. For CAD/CAPP integration, feature technology is being implemented to represent geometrical and technological information of part drawings. A feature database has already been designed, and then used to generate data for process and operation planning modules. Related to this former research, standard operation time is calculated using the feature information and tables used in a real factory.

This paper proposes methods to extract face elements and facial characteristics points for face recognition. We select a candidate region of the face elements with geometrical information between them inside the extracted face region with skin color and extract them using their inherent features. The facial characteristics to be applied to face recognition is expressed with geometrical relation such as distance and angle between the extracted face elements. Experiment results shows good performance to extract of face elements.

This work develops a motif design integrated with geometrical patterns in traditional ddeoksal and that can be applied to a scarf design so that traditional elements unique to Korean culture can be developed further for a modern application to various design fields. For the research method, literature reviews on op art and traditional ddeoksal were conducted with Adobe Illustrator CS3 and Adobe Photoshop CS3. As for the motif combination, such applications were taken as five pieces from the works of Victor Vasarely and some traditional ddeoksal shapes such as oblique line pattern, taegeuk pattern, and geometrical pattern. Abstract and geometrical images were borrowed from op art and ddeoksal for image expression. The total number of works selected was eleven. To realize the applied scarf design, a motif layout was performed with the scarf center or rim highlighted so that each design feature could be remarkable based on the motif combination. With the function of scaling, rotation, opacity control, filtering effect, the changed images were shown through motif distortion. In addition, this work applies a single combined motif to products for a possible transformation into handkerchiefs and boutique scarfs in the case of smaller sized scarfs.

This paper presents spatial relationshaps and engineering features for the feature based modeling of Sheet Metal Weld Assemblies (SMWA) that are made of sheet metal components through are welding processes. Spatial relationships in ProMod-S, a sheet metal product modeler,are further extended for the SMWA modeling. Some spatial relationships for special weld joint types are newly introduced. The geometrical and topological relations between spatial reationship, mating features, and assembly features are defined. Finally, assembly data stucturess for the product modeling of SMWA are proposed. They are an engineering relation to represent the constraints between component features, and a mating bond to integrate component design information.

One of the most widely used methods for dimensionality reduction is principal component analysis (PCA). However, the reduced dimensions from PCA do not provide a clear interpretation with respect to the original features because they are linear combinations of a large number of original features. This interpretation problem can be overcome by feature selection approaches that identifying the best subset of given features. In this study, we propose an unsupervised feature selection method based on the geometrical information of PCA loading vectors. Experimental results from a simulation study demonstrated the efficiency and usefulness of the proposed method.

Emotion recognition between human and human is done compositely using various features that are face, voice, gesture and etc. Among them, it is a face that emotion expression is revealed the most definitely. Human expresses and recognizes a emotion using complex and various features of the face. This paper proposes hybrid feature extraction for emotions recognition from facial expression. Hybrid feature extraction imitates emotion recognition system of human by combination of geometrical feature based extraction and color distributed histogram. That is, it can robustly perform emotion recognition by extracting many features of facial expression.

This paper presents a complete method for vehicle detection and tracking in a fixed setting based on computer vision. Vehicle detection is performed based on Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) feature matching. With SIFT feature detection and matching, the geometrical relations between the two images is estimated. Then, the previous image is aligned with the current image so that moving vehicles can be detected by analyzing the difference image of the two aligned images. Vehicle tracking is also performed based on SIFT feature matching. For the decreasing of time consumption and maintaining higher tracking accuracy, the detected candidate vehicle in the current image is matched with the vehicle sample in the tracking sample set, which contains all of the detected vehicles in previous images. Most remarkably, the management of vehicle entries and exits is realized based on SIFT feature matching with an efficient update mechanism of the tracking sample set. This entire method is proposed for highway traffic environment where there are no non-automotive vehicles or pedestrians, as these would interfere with the results.
