This paper focuses on the study of the face authentication system and the robustness of fact authentication methods under illumination changes. Four different face authentication methods are tried. These methods are as fellows; PCA(Principal Component Analysis), GMM(Gaussian Mixture Modeis), 1D HMM(1 Dimensional Hidden Markov Models), Pseudo 2D HMM(Pseudo 2 Dimensional Hidden Markov Models). Experiment results involving an artificial illumination change to fate images are compared with each other. Face feature vector extraction based on the 2D DCT(2 Dimensional Discrete Cosine Transform) if used. Experiments to evaluate the above four different fate authentication methods are carried out on the ORL(Olivetti Research Laboratory) face database. Experiment results show the EER(Equal Error Rate) performance degrade in ail occasions for the varying ${\delta}$. For the non illumination changes, Pseudo 2D HMM is $2.54{\%}$,1D HMM is $3.18{\%}$, PCA is $11.7{\%}$, GMM is $13.38{\%}$. The 1D HMM have the bettor performance than PCA where there is no illumination changes. But the 1D HMM have worse performance than PCA where there is large illumination changes(${\delta}{\geq}40$). For the Pseudo 2D HMM, The best EER performance is observed regardless of the illumination changes.

Distinct from the Markov random field or pseudo 2D HMM models for image analysis, this paper proposes a new model of 2D hidden Markov mesh chain(HMMM) model which subsumes the definitions of and the assumptions underlying the conventional HMM. The proposed model is a new theoretical realization of 2D HMM with the causality of top-down and left-right progression and the complete lattice constraint. These two conditions enable an efficient mesh decoding for model estimation and a recursive maximum likelihood estimation of model parameters. Those algorithms are developed in theoretical perspective and, in particular, the training algorithm, it is proved, attains the optimal set of parameters.

A driver's emotion is a very important factor of safe driving. This paper classified a driver's emotion into 3 major emotions, can be occur when driving a car: Surprise, Joy, Tired. And It evaluated the classifier using Hidden Markov Models, which have observation sequence as bio-signals. It used the 2-D emotional plane to classfiy a human's general emotion state. The 2-D emotional plane has 2 axes of pleasure-displeasure and arsual-relaxztion. The used bio-signals are Galvanic Skin Response(GSR) and Heart Rate Variability(HRV), which are easy to acquire and reliable. We classified several moving pictures into 3 major emotions to evaluate our HMM system. As a result of driving simulations for each emotional situations, we can get recognition rates of 67% for surprise, 58% for joy and 52% for tired.

In this paper we propose an anomaly detection scheme to detect new attack paths or new attack methods without false positives by monitoring HTTP Outbound Traffic after efficient training. Our proposed scheme detects web-based attacks by comparing tags or javascripts of HTTP Outbound Traffic with normal behavioral models which apply HMM(Hidden Markov Model). Through the verification analysis under the real-attacked environment, we show that our scheme has superior detection capability of 0.0001% false positive and 96% detection rate.

General Circulation Models (GCMs) are the basic tool used for modelling climate. However, the spatio-temporal discrepancy between GCM and observed value, therefore, the models deliver output that are generally required calibration for applied studies. Which is generally done by Multi-Model Ensemble (MME) approach. Stochastic downscaling methods have been used extensively to generate long-term weather sequences from finite observed records. A primary objective of this study is to develop a forecasting scheme which is able to make use of a MME of different GCMs. This study employed a Nonstationary Hidden Markov Chain Model (NHMM) as a main tool for downscaling seasonal ensemble forecasts over 3 month period, providing daily forecasts. Our results showed that the proposed downscaling scheme can provide the skillful forecasts as inputs for hydrologic modeling, which in turn may improve water resources management. An application to the Nakdong watershed in South Korea illustrates how the proposed approach can lead to potentially reliable information for water resources management.

Sequence homology analysis in the substances in the phenomenon of life is to create database by sorting and indexing and to demonstrate the usefulness of informatics. In this paper, Markov models are used in GenScan program to convert the pattern of complex eukaryotic protein sequences. It becomes impossible to navigate the minimum distance, complexity increases exponentially as the exact calculation. It is used scorecard in amino acid substitutions between similar amino acid substitutions to have a differential effect score, and is applied the Markov models sophisticated concealment of the transition probability model. As providing superior method to translate sequences homologous sequences in analysis using blast p, Markov models. is secreted protein structure of sequence translations.

We evaluate the performance of emotion recognition via speech signals when a plain speaker talks to an entertainment robot. For each frame of a speech utterance, we extract the frame-based features: pitch, energy, formant, band energies, mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs), and velocity/acceleration of pitch and MFCCs. For discriminative classifiers, a fixed-length utterance-based feature vector is computed from the statistics of the frame-based features. Using a speaker-independent database, we evaluate the performance of two promising classifiers: support vector machine (SVM) and hidden Markov model (HMM). For angry/bored/happy/neutral/sad emotion classification, the SVM and HMM classifiers yield $42.3\%\;and\;40.8\%$ accuracy, respectively. We show that the accuracy is significant compared to the performance by foreign human listeners.

In this paper, we present a walking guidance system for the visually impaired for use at subway stations. This system, which is based on environmental knowledge, automatically detects and recognizes both exit numbers and arrow signs from natural outdoor scenes. The visually impaired can, therefore, utilize the system to find their own way (for example, using exit numbers and the directions provided) through a subway station. The proposed walking guidance system consists mainly of three stages: (a) sign detection using the MCT-based AdaBoost technique, (b) sign recognition using support vector machines and hidden Markov models, and (c) three verification techniques to discriminate between signs and non-signs. The experimental results indicate that our sign recognition system has a high performance with a detection rate of 98%, a recognition rate of 99.5%, and a false-positive error rate of 0.152.

본 논문은 Hidden Markov Model을 사용하여 사람의 특정한 행동을 인식하여 사용자에게 알려주는 지능형 영상 감시 시스템을 제안한다. 본 방법에는 카메라를 통해 입력된 영상에서 사람 영역을 찾은 후 발 영역만을 추출하여 특징이 되는 관측열을 생성한다. 특징 영역은 입력 영상의 각 프레임을 16개의 영역으로 나누어 발바닥이 위치한 곳의 코드를 읽어 사용하고, 인식하고자하는 패턴 행동들에 대해서는 각각의 관측열을 구하고 HMM의 Baum-Welch 알고리즘을 사용하여 학습한다. 인식에는 전향 알고리즘을 사용하여 입력된 행동과 학습된 행동을 확률적으로 비교하므로써 영상 내의 행동이 어떤 패턴 행동인지를 결정하여 출력하도록 한다. 제시된 방법은 복도에서 사람의 특정 행동을 인식하는데 성공적으로 적용될 수 있음을 실험을 통해 확인 하였다.

In this paper, Korean spoken continuous digits are ercognized using DHMM(Dynamic Hidden Markov Model) and lexical analysis to provide the base of developing voice dialing system. After segmentation by phoneme unit, it is recognized. This system can be divided into the segmentation section, the design of standard speech section, the recognition section, and the lexical analysis section. In the segmentation section, it is segmented using the ZCR, O order LPC cepstrum, and Ai, parameter of voice speech dectaction, which is changed according to time. In the standard speech design section, 19 phonemes or syllables are trained by DHMM and designed as a standard speech. In the recognition section, phomeme stream are recognized by the Viterbi algorithm.In the lexical decoder section, finally recognized continuous digits are outputed. This experiment shiwed the recognition rate of 85.1% using data spoken 7 times of 21 classes of 7 continuous digits which are combinated all of the occurence, spoken by 10 man.
