This paper presents a new and practical method based on computer vision for detecting the monitor position where the user is looking. In general, the user tends to move both his face and eyes in order to gaze at certain monitor position. Previous researches use only one wide view camera, which can capture a whole user's face. In such a case, the image resolution is too low and the fine movements of user's eye cannot be exactly detected. So, we implement the gaze detection system with dual camera systems(a wide and a narrow view camera). In order to locate the user's eye position accurately, the narrow view camera has the functionalities of auto focusing and auto panning/tilting based on the detected 3D facial feature positions from the wide view camera. In addition, we use dual R-LED illuminators in order to detect facial features and especially eye features. As experimental results, we can implement the real-time gaze detection system and the gaze position accuracy between the computed positions and the real ones is about 3.44 cm of RMS error.

The researches about gaze recognition which current user gazes and finds the location have increasingly developed to have many application. The gaze recognition of existence all about researches have got problems because of using equipment that Infrared(IR) LED, IR camera and head-mounted of high price. This study propose and implement the gaze recognition system based on SVM using a single PC Web camera. The proposed system that divide the gaze location of 36 per 9 and 4 to recognize gaze location of 4 direction and 9 direction recognize user's gaze. Also, the proposed system had apply on image filtering method using difference image entropy to improve performance of gaze recognition. The propose system was implements experiments on the comparison of proposed difference image entropy gaze recognition system, gaze recognition system using eye corner and eye's center and gaze recognition system based on PCA to evaluate performance of proposed system. The experimental results, recognition rate of 4 direction was 94.42% and 9 direction was 81.33% for the gaze recognition system based on proposed SVM. 4 direction was 95.37% and 9 direction was 82.25%, when image filtering method using difference image entropy implemented. The experimental results proved the high performance better than existed gaze recognition system.

본 논문에서는 키보드나 마우스와 같은 인풋 디바이스 없이 손동작만으로 컴퓨터를 조작할 수 있는 차세대 인터페이스인 에어 인터페이스를 구현하였다. 이 시스템 구현을 위해 먼저 적외선 카메라와 적외선 LED를 사용하였고, 또한 적외선의 전반사의 원리를 이용하였다. 이를 통해 획득된 적외선 영상은 다양한 영상처리 기술을 통해 손 영역을 분할, 검출하게 되고, 검출된 정보를 이용하여 다양한 메타포를 구현 하였으며, 최종적으로 개별적인 제어 이벤트에 각각 맵핑되어 컴퓨터를 제어 및 동작하는 과정을 수행하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 손 영역의 검출과 추적, 인식과정 등을 자세히 서술하였으며, 다양한 메타포도 함께 소개가 된다. 그리고 본 연구에서 사용된 기술을 더욱 발전시키면 사회 전반적으로 다양한 부분에서 적극 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

This paper describes a monocular PSD-based motion capture sensor to employ with commercial video game systems such as Microsoft's XBOX and Sony's Playstation II. The system includes a PSD(Position Sensitive Detector) and active infrared (IR) LED markers that are placed on the object to be tracked. The micro-controller calculates the 3D position of the markers using only the measured intensity and the 2D position on the PSD. A series of experiments were performed to evaluate the performance of our prototype system. From the experimental results we see that the proposed system has the advantages of the compact size, the low cost, the easy installation, and the high frame rates to be suitable for high speed motion tracking in games.

In relation to the extraction of opinion words, it may be difficult to directly apply most of the methods suggested in existing English studies to the Korean language. Additionally, the manual method suggested by studies in Korea poses a problem with the extraction of opinion words in that it takes a long time. In addition, English thesaurus-based extraction of Korean opinion words leaves a challenge to reconsider the deterioration of precision attributed to the one to one mismatching between Korean and English words. Studies based on Korean phrase analyzers may potentially fail due to the fact that they select opinion words with a low level of frequency. Therefore, this study will suggest the k-Structure (k=5 or 8) method, which may possibly improve the precision while mutually complementing existing studies in Korea, in automatically extracting opinion words from a simple sentence in a given Korean product review. A simple sentence is defined to be composed of at least 3 words, i.e., a sentence including an opinion word in ${\pm}2$ distance from the attribute name (e.g., the 'battery' of a camera) of a evaluated product (e.g., a 'camera'). In the performance experiment, the precision of those opinion words for 8 previously given attribute names were automatically extracted and estimated for 1,868 product reviews collected from major domestic shopping malls, by using k-Structure. The results showed that k=5 led to a recall of 79.0% and a precision of 87.0%; while k=8 led to a recall of 92.35% and a precision of 89.3%. Also, a test was conducted using PMI-IR (Pointwise Mutual Information - Information Retrieval) out of those methods suggested in English studies, which resulted in a recall of 55% and a precision of 57%.
