For the handwritten digit recognition, this paper Proposes a hierarchical Gator features extraction method and a Bayesian network for them. Proposed Gator features are able to represent hierarchically different level information and Bayesian network is constructed to represent hierarchically structured dependencies among these Gator features. In order to extract such features, we define Gabor filters level by level and choose optimal Gabor filters by using Fisher's Linear Discriminant measure. Hierarchical Gator features are extracted by optimal Gabor filters and represent more localized information in the lower level. Proposed methods were successfully applied to handwritten digit recognition with well-known naive Bayesian classifier, k-nearest neighbor classifier. and backpropagation neural network and showed good performance.

In these days, recommendation service in mobile environments is in the limelight due to the spread of mobile devices and an increase of information owing to advancement of computer network. The restaurant recommendation system reflecting user preference was proposed. This system uses Bayesian network to model user preference and analytical hierarchical process to recommend restaurants, but static inference model for user preference used in the system has some limitations that cannot manage changing user preference and enormous user survey must be preceded. This paper proposes a learning method for Bayesian network based on user requests. The proposed method is implemented on mobile devices and desktop, and we show the possibility of the proposed method through experiments.

베이지안망(Bayesian network)은 다수의 변수들 사이의 확률적 관계(조건부독립성: conditional independence)를 그래프 구조로 표현하는 모델이다. 이러한 베이지안망은 비감독학습(unsupervised teaming)을 통한 데이터마이닝에 적합하다. 이를 위해 데이터로부터 베이지안망의 구조와 파라미터를 학습하게 된다. 주어진 데이터의 likelihood를 최대로 하는 베이지안망 구조를 찾는 문제는 NP-hard임이 알려져 있으므로, greedy search를 통한 근사해(approximate solution)를 구하는 방법이 주로 이용된다. 하지만 이러한 근사적 학습방법들도 데이터를 구성하는 변수들이 수천 - 수만에 이르는 경우, 방대한 계산량으로 인해 그 적용이 실질적으로 불가능하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 그러한 대규모 데이터에서 학습될 수 있는 계층적 베이지안망(hierarchical Bayesian network) 모델 및 그 학습방법을 제안하고, 그 가능성을 실험을 통해 보인다.

This paper presents a real-time hand gesture recognition approach for controlling a computer. We define hand gestures as continuous hand postures and their movements for easy expression of various gestures and propose a Two-layered Bayesian Network (TBN) to recognize those gestures. The proposed method can compensate an incorrectly recognized hand posture and its location via the preceding and following information. In order to vertify the usefulness of the proposed method, we implemented a Virtual Mouse interface, the gesture-based interface of a physical mouse device. In experiments, the proposed method showed a recognition rate of 94.8% and 88.1% for a simple and cluttered background, respectively. This outperforms the previous HMM-based method, which had results of 92.4% and 83.3%, respectively, under the same conditions.

일반적으로 축구 비디오 데이터는 멀티모달과 멀티레이어 속성을 지닌다. 이러한 데이터를 다루기 적합한 모델은 동적 베이지안 네트워크(Dynamic Bayesian Network: DBN) 형태의 위계적 은닉 마르코프 모델(Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model: HHMM)이다. 이러한 HHMM 중 다중속성의 특징들이 서로 상호작용하는 PHHMM(Product Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model)이 있다. 본 논문에서는 PHHMM 을 축구 경기의 Play/Break 이벤트 검색 및 분석에 적용하였고 바람직한 결과를 얻었다.

Recently it is proposed that the Bayesian networks used as conversational agent for topic inference is useful but the Bayesian networks require much time to model, and the Bayesian networks also have to be modified when the scripts, the database for conversation, are added or modified and this hinders the scalability of the agent. This paper presents a method to improve the scalability of the agent by constructing the Bayesian network from scripts automatically. The proposed method is to model the structure of Bayesian networks hierarchically and to utilize Noisy-OR gate to form the conditional probability distribution table (CPT). Experimental results with ten subjects confirm the usefulness of the proposed method.

지구온난화로 인하여 기상학적 변동성 증가 및 수질, 수자원, 생태계 등의 다양한 영역에 영향을 야기하고 있으며, 이를 통한 피해가 전 세계적으로 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 최근 다양한 분야에서 수문학적 빈도에 영향을 미친다고 알려진 AO(Arctic Oscillation), NAO(North Atlantic Oscillation), ENSO(El $Ni{\tilde{n}}o$-Southern Oscillation), PDO(Pacific Decadal Oscillation), MJO(Madden-Julian Oscillation)등의 외부인자중 SST, MJO를 활용하여 계절단위의 수문량 정도에서 기상학적 변량과 관측유역 강수량의 관계를 정립하고 발생 가능한 24시간 지속시간 극치강수량을 모의하였다. 이를 위하여 Bayesian 통계기법을 이용한 비정상성 빈도해석모형을 근간으로 외부 기상인자에 의한 계절강수량 예측모형인 계층적 베이지안 네트워크(Hierarchical Bayesian Network, HBN)를 구축한 후 산정된 결과를 입력 자료로 하여 직접적으로 일단위 이하의 극치강수량을 상세화 시킬 수 있는 베타 모델(four parameter beta, 4PB)을 연계한 계층적 베이지안 네트워크 베타모델(Hierarchical Bayesian Network-4beta Model, HBN4BM)을 개발하여 기상변동성을 고려한 상세화 모형을 개발하였다. 여름강수량 산정 결과 한강 유역의 경우 2016년은 관측값 573.85mm, 모의 값 567.15mm를 나타내어 약 1.2%의 오차를 나타냈으며, 2017년 및 2018년은 4.5%, 6.8%의 오차에서 모의가 이루어졌다. 금강의 경우 2016년은 다른 연도에 비하여 35.2%라는 큰 오차를 보였지만 불확실성 구간에서 모의가 이루어 졌으며, 2017년 및 2018년은 0.3%, 2.1%의 작은 오차가 발생하였다. 24시간 모의 결과는 최소 0.7%에서 최대 27.1%의 오차를 나타냈으며, 평균적으로 16.4%의 오차 결과가 모의되어 모형의 신뢰성을 확인하였다.

In general, the methods of the analysis of variance(ANOVA) for the continuous data and the chi-square test for the discrete data are used for statistical analysis of the effect and the association. In multidimensional data, analysis of hierarchical structure is required and statistical linear model is adopted. The structure of the linear model requires the normality of the data. A multidimensional categorical data analysis methods are used for causal relations, interactions, and correlation analysis. In this paper, Bayesian network model using probability distribution is proposed to reduce analysis procedure and analyze interactions and causal relationships in categorical data analysis.

Most attempts at Bayesian analysis of neural networks involve hierarchical modeling. We believe that similar results can be obtained with simpler models that require less computational effort, as long as appropriate restrictions are placed on parameters in order to ensure propriety of posterior distributions. In particular, we adopt a model first introduced by Lee (1999) that utilizes an improper prior for all parameters. Straightforward Gibbs sampling is possible, with the exception of the bias parameters, which are embedded in nonlinear sigmoidal functions. In addition to the problems posed by nonlinearity, direct sampling from the posterior distributions of the bias parameters is compounded due to the duplication of hidden nodes, which is a source of multimodality. In this regard, we focus on sampling from the marginal posterior distribution of the bias parameters with Markov chain Monte Carlo methods that combine traditional Metropolis sampling with a slice sampler described by Neal (1997, 2001). The methods are illustrated with data examples that are largely confined to the analysis of nonparametric regression models.

The power production using renewable energy is more important because of a limited amount of fossil fuel and the problem of global warming. A concentrative photovoltaic system comes into the spotlight with high energy production, since the rate of power production using solar energy is proliferated. These systems, however, need to sophisticated tracking methods to give the high power production. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical tracking system using modular Bayesian networks and a naive Bayes classifier. The Bayesian networks can respond flexibly in uncertain situations and can be designed by domain knowledge even when the data are not enough. Bayesian network modules infer the weather states which are classified into nine classes. Then, naive Bayes classifier selects the most effective method considering inferred weather states and the system makes a decision using the rules. We collected real weather data for the experiments and the average accuracy of the proposed method is 93.9%. In addition, comparing the photovoltaic efficiency with the pinhole camera system results in improved performance of about 16.58%.
