In this paper we propose Using Higher Order Neuron on the Supervised Learning Machine of the Kohonen Feature Map. The architecture of proposed model adopts the higher order neuron in the input layer of Kohonen Feature Map as a Supervised Learning Machine. It is able to estimate boundary on input pattern space because or the higher order neuron. However, it suffers from a problem that the number of neuron weight increases because of the higher order neuron in the input layer. In this time, we solved this problem by placing the second order neuron among the higher order neuron. The feature of the higher order neuron can be mapped similar inputs on the Kohonen Feature Map. It also is the network with topological mapping. We have simulated the proposed model in respect of the recognition rate by XOR problem, discrimination of 20 alphabet patterns, Mirror Symmetry problem, and numerical letters Pattern Problem.

In this paper, we presents a new methodology for face recognition after analysing conventional ICA(Independent Component Analysis) based approach. In the literature we found that ICA based methods have followed the same procedure without any exception, first PCA(Principal Component Analysis) has been used for feature extraction, next ICA learning method has been applied for feature enhancement in the reduced dimension. However, it is contradiction that features are extracted using higher order moments depend on variance, the second order statistics. It is not considered that a necessary component can be located in the discarded feature space. In the new methodology, features are extracted using the magnitude of kurtosis(4-th order central moment or cumulant). This corresponds to the PCA based feature extraction using eigenvalue(2nd order central moment or variance). The synergy effect of PCA and ICA can be achieved if PCA is used for noise reduction filter. ICA methodology is analysed using SVD(Singular Value Decomposition). PCA does whitening and noise reduction. ICA performs the feature extraction. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the methodology compared to the conventional ICA approach.

In order to solve the problems of the existing audio fingerprint method when extracting audio fingerprints from long speech segments, such as too large fingerprint dimension, poor robustness, and low retrieval accuracy and efficiency, a robust audio fingerprint retrieval method based on feature dimension reduction and feature combination is proposed. Firstly, the Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient (MFCC) and linear prediction cepstrum coefficient (LPCC) of the original speech are extracted respectively, and the MFCC feature matrix and LPCC feature matrix are combined. Secondly, the feature dimension reduction method based on information entropy is used for column dimension reduction, and the feature matrix after dimension reduction is used for row dimension reduction based on energy feature dimension reduction method. Finally, the audio fingerprint is constructed by using the feature combination matrix after dimension reduction. When speech's user retrieval, the normalized Hamming distance algorithm is used for matching retrieval. Experiment results show that the proposed method has smaller audio fingerprint dimension and better robustness for long speech segments, and has higher retrieval efficiency while maintaining a higher recall rate and precision rate.

In this paper, the algorithm that recognizes the gesture by configuring the feature information obtained through Improved Higher Order Local Correlation Features as low dimensional gesture symbol was described. Since the proposed method doesn't require a lot of computations compared to the existing geometric feature based method or appearance based methods and it can maintain high recognition rate by using the minimum information, it is very well suited for real-time system establishment.

본 논문은 교사 있는 학습기의 Kohonen Feature Map에 고차 뉴런을 도입, 고차 뉴런을 이용한 Kohonen의 자기 조직화 맵을 제안한다. 일반적인 Kohonen Feature Map의 특징은 입력신호를 받아 출력 면(Kohonen Feature Map) 내의 특정한 위치 주위에 집중하는 메커니즘으로 즉, 국소집중 반응을 구하는 구조이다. 본 논문에서는 종래형의 Kohonen Feature Map의 특징을 보유하며 교사 있는 학습기의 Kohonen Feature Map에 고차 뉴런을 도입하여 국소집중반응 및 특징 축출이 용이하도록 네트워크 구조를 개선한 것이다. 특히, 일차 뉴런의 문제점인 비선형 분리 문제에 대하여 교사 있는 학습기의 Kohonen Feature Map의 입력층에 고차 뉴런을 도입함으로 비선형 분리 가능한 형태의 네트워크 구조로 형성하였다. 그러나, 일반적인 고차 뉴런의 문제점을 보안하기 위해 본 논문에서는 오직 2차 뉴런만을 생성하였으며 중복되는 뉴런을 최대한 억제하였다. 본 제안 모델의 특성을 살펴보기 위해 XOR문제와 20개의 Alphabet을 식별하는 패턴인식 시뮬레이션을 했으며, 본 제안 모델의 범화능력을 알아보기 위하여 Mirror Symmetry를 사용하여 계산기 시뮬레이션을 했다. 그 결과, 본 제안 모델이 종래형의 네트워크 구조보다 뛰어난 인식률을 얻을 수 있었다.

Most of speech analysis methods developed up to date are based on second order statistics, and one of the biggest drawback of these methods is that they show dramatical performance degradation in noisy environments. On the contrary, the methods using higher order statistics(HOS), which has the property of suppressing Gaussian noise, enable robust feature extraction in noisy environments. In this paper we propose a text-independent speaker identification system using higher order statistics and compare its performance with that using the conventional second-order-statistics-based method in both white and colored noise environments. The proposed speaker identification system is based on the vector quantization approach, and employs HOS-based voiced/unvoiced detector in order to extract feature parameters for voiced speech only, which has non-Gaussian distribution and is known to contain most of speaker-specific characteristics. Experimental results using 50 speaker's database show that higher-order-statistics-based method gives a better identificaiton performance than the conventional second-order-statistics-based method in noisy environments.

In this paper a novel feature extraction and selection is carried out in order to improve the discriminating capability between healthy and damaged structure using vibration signals. Although many feature extraction and selection algorithms have been proposed for vibration signals, most proposed approaches don't consider the discriminating ability of features since they are usually in unsupervised manner. We proposed a novel feature extraction and selection algorithm selecting few wavelet coefficients with higher class discriminating capability for damage detection and class visualization. We applied three class separability measures to evaluate the features, i.e. T test statistics, divergence, and Bhattacharyya distance. Experiments with vibration signals from truss structure demonstrate that class separabilities are significantly enhanced using our proposed algorithm compared to other two algorithms with original time-based features and Fourier-based ones.

We propose a feature generation method for low-resolution face recognition. For this, we first generate new features from the input features (pixels) of a low-resolution face image by adding the higher-order terms. Then, we evaluate the separability of both of the original input features and new features by computing the discriminant distance of each feature. Finally, new data sample used for recognition consists of the features with high separability. The experimental results for the FERET, CMU-PIE and Yale B databases show that the proposed method gives good recognition performance for low-resolution face images compared with other method.

This paper describes the algorithm that lowers the dimension, maintains the gesture recognition and significantly reduces the eigenspace configuration time by combining the higher correlation feature information and Principle Component Analysis. Since the suggested method doesn't require a lot of computation than the method using existing geometric information or stereo image, the fact that it is very suitable for building the real-time system has been proved through the experiment. In addition, since the existing point to point method which is a simple distance calculation has many errors, in this paper to improve recognition rate the recognition error could be reduced by using several successive input images as a unit of recognition with K-Nearest Neighbor which is the improved Class to Class method.
