최근 몇 년 동안 사람들의 고유한 생리적인 특징을 이용한 생체 인식은 새로운 학문으로서 연구 및 개발이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. Hand-Geometry는 생체 인식의 확인 그리고 취득의 편리 때문에 식별 그리고 확인을 위하여 사용되고 있다. 그러므로, 본 논문은 이러한 특징을 가지는 손의 기하학적인 Hand-Geometry 인식 시스템을 제안하고자 한다. 해부학적인 관점에서, 인간의 손은 길이, 폭, 두께, 기하학적인 모양, 손바닥의 모양, 그리고 손가락들의 기하학적인 모양까지 특성으로 나타내어 질 수 있다. 그러나 특징 데이터 가운데 사용자의 Hand-GeoMetry의 특징에 따라 길이 데이터가 변하는 것을 실험적으로 발견하였다. 따라서 이와 같은 가변적인 길이 데이터를 안정화시키기 위하여 본 논문에서는 길이 데이터의 기준점을 손톱 아래 점으로 정하고, GA를 적용하여 보다 안정된 특징점을 추출하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 Hand-Geometry 인식 시스템은 성인 20명의 개인에 대해 100개의 측정 데이터에 기인한 확인 결과를 제시한다. 인식 과정은 320$\times$240의 이미지로 실험하였고 인식 과정의 결과는 95 %의 적중률과 0.020의 FAR로 나타났다.

Place recognition is necessary for a mobile user to be provided with place-dependent information. This paper proposes real-time video based place recognition system that identifies users' current place while moving in the building. As for the feature extraction of a scene, there have been existing methods based on global feature analysis that has drawback of sensitive-ness for the case of partial occlusion and noises. There have also been local feature based methods that usually attempted object recognition which seemed hard to be applied in real-time system because of high computational cost. On the other hand, researches using statistical methods such as HMM(hidden Markov models) or bayesian networks have been used to derive place recognition result from the feature data. The former is, however, not practical because it requires huge amounts of efforts to gather the training data while the latter usually depends on object recognition only. This paper proposes a combined approach of global and local feature analysis for feature extraction to complement both approaches' drawbacks. The proposed method is applied to a mobile information system and shows real-time performance with competitive recognition result.

In this paper, we propose the gaussian mixture model based pattern classification algorithm of forearm electromyogram. We define the motion of 1-degree of freedom as holding and unfolding hand considering a daily life for patient with prosthetic hand. For the extraction of precise features from the EMG signals, we use the difference absolute mean value(DAMV) and the mean absolute value(MAV) to consider amplitude characteristic of EMG signals. We also propose the D_DAMV and D_MAV in order to classify the amplitude characteristic of EMG signals more precisely. In this paper, we implemented a test targeting four adult male and identified the accuracy of EMG pattern classification of two motions which are holding and unfolding hand.

The idea of using hand gestures for human-computer interaction is not new and has been studied intensively during the last dorado with a significant amount of qualitative progress that, however, has been short of our expectations. This paper describes a dynamic Bayesian network or DBN based approach to both two-hand gestures and one-hand gestures. Unlike wired glove-based approaches, the success of camera-based methods depends greatly on the image processing and feature extraction results. So the proposed method of DBN-based inference is preceded by fail-safe steps of skin extraction and modeling, and motion tracking. Then a new gesture recognition model for a set of both one-hand and two-hand gestures is proposed based on the dynamic Bayesian network framework which makes it easy to represent the relationship among features and incorporate new information to a model. In an experiment with ten isolated gestures, we obtained the recognition rate upwards of 99.59% with cross validation. The proposed model and the related approach are believed to have a strong potential for successful applications to other related problems such as sign languages.

The mirror neuron system in the cerebrum, which are handled by visual information-based imitative learning. When we observe the observer's range of mirror neuron system, we can assume intention of performance through progress of neural activation as specific range, in include of partially hidden range. It is goal of our paper that imitative learning is applied to 3D vision-based intelligent system. We have experiment as stereo camera-based restoration about acquired 3D image our previous research Using Optical flow, unscented Kalman filter. At this point, 3D input image is sequential continuous image as including of partially hidden range. We used Hidden Markov Model to perform the intention recognition about performance as result of restoration-based hidden range. The dynamic inference function about sequential input data have compatible properties such as hand gesture recognition include of hidden range. In this paper, for proposed intention recognition, we already had a simulation about object outline and feature extraction in the previous research, we generated temporal continuous feature vector about feature extraction and when we apply to Hidden Markov Model, make a result of simulation about hand gesture classification according to intention pattern. We got the result of hand gesture classification as value of posterior probability, and proved the accuracy outstandingness through the result.

The geographic information system is needed in the image recognition field. This study recommends an efficient method to construct the GIS from the feature extraction of roads through scanning of a normal or hand-made maps. Many algorithms have been presented for such image information recognition. However, such algorithm processes have limitations due to their complexity. To efficiently extract road information from scanning map images. a $3{\times}3$ directional form is applied - structuring element, erosion and dilation, and opening and closing. This method allows for efficient evaluation of the featured road extracts from the map image and from the character sets.

This paper describes a feature extraction process by using a multi-layer neural network and is applied to the Korean stroke pattern for on line hand written character recognition, In the first layer the features are detected during the writing process and in the second layer the stroke specific features are extracted. A modified Masking field algorithm for direction co9nstancy has been used in this neural network and the resulting action potential of stroke specific features represents statistical distribution of the features in the on-line input stroke pattern and these results can be used in the recognition of on-line hand written Korean characters successfully.

최근 객체인식 분야에서는 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)이 주목받고 있다. CNN의 특징 중 하나는 입력이미지로 부터 특징 추출 방법을 스스로 학습한다는 것이다. 전통적은 객체인식 방법에서는 hand-written feature extractor를 사용하지만, CNN은 스스로가 특징을 추출한다. 하지만 CNN은 많은 학습데이터와 학습 시간을 필요로 한다. 우리는 객체인식 데이터로 사전학습된 CNN을 사용하여 특징을 추출하였고, 이 특징으로 People re-identification을 수행하였다. 이 과정에서 어떠한 학습도 하지 않았지만 CNN은 다른 영상처리 응용에 대해서도 비교적 좋은 성능을 보여주었다.

Direct teaching of the industrial robot is a novel technique to easily teach manipulators. However, teaching data by human hand cannot help having large noise errors ranging from low to high frequency. To use teaching data, post-processing to correct the teaching trajectory is required. Here, a novel shape-based trajectory correction method to rebuild teaching data with the feature information of curvature and velocity is proposed. The proposed method is tested on square and circular objects.

In this paper, a finger-click recognition method is proposed to improve the recognition performance for finger-clicking of a wearable input device, called $SCURRY^{TM}$. The proposed method is composed of three parts including feature extraction part, valid click discrimination part, and cross-talk avoidance part. Two types of MEMS inertial sensors are embedded into the wearable input device to measure the angular velocity of a hand (hand movement) and the acceleration rates at the ends of fingers (finger-click motion). The experiment applied to the $SCURRY^{TM}$ device shows the improved stability and performance.
