For distortion-invariant recognition of Korean characters, a holographic implementation of an optical associative memory system is proposed. The structure of the proposed system is a single-layer neural network employing interconneclion matrix, thresholding and feedback. To provide the interconnection matrix, we use two CGII's which are placed on intermcdiate plane of cascaded Vander Lugt corrclators to form an optical memory loop. The holographic correlator stores reference images in a hologram and retrives them in a coherently illuminated feedback loop. An input image which maybe noisy or incomplete, is applicd to the system and simultaneously correlated optically with all of the stord images. These correlations are throsholed and fed back to the input, where the strongest correlation reinforces the input image. The enhanced image passes arround the loop repeatedly, approaching the stored image more closely on each pass until the system stabilizes on the desired image. The computer simulation results show that the proposed Korean Character recognition algorithm has high discrimination capability and noise immunity.

In this paper, a system that can classify the objects in the image according to their sizes using the reference points is proposed. The object is studied with samples. The proposed system recognizes and classifies objects by the size in images acquired using a mobile phone camera. Conventional object recognition systems classify objects using only object size. As the size of the object varies depending on the distance, such systems have the disadvantage that an error may occurs if the image is not acquired with a certain distance. In order to overcome the limitation of the conventional object recognition system, the object recognition system proposed in this paper can classify the object regardless of the distance with comparing the size of the reference point by placing it at the upper left corner of the image.

In recent years, image processing technology has played a critical role in the field of autonomous driving. Among them, image recognition technology is essential for the safety and performance of autonomous vehicles. Therefore, this paper aims to develop a hybrid image recognition system to enhance the safety and performance of autonomous vehicles. In this paper, various image recognition technologies are utilized to construct a system that recognizes and tracks objects in the vehicle's surroundings. Machine learning and deep learning algorithms are employed for this purpose, and objects are identified and classified in real-time through image processing and analysis. Furthermore, this study aims to fuse image processing technology with vehicle control systems to improve the safety and performance of autonomous vehicles. To achieve this, the identified object's information is transmitted to the vehicle control system to enable appropriate autonomous driving responses. The developed hybrid image recognition system in this paper is expected to significantly improve the safety and performance of autonomous vehicles. This is expected to accelerate the commercialization of autonomous vehicles.

In this invited paper, numerical reconstruction and pattern recognition using integral imaging are overviewed. The computational integral imaging method reconstructs three-dimensional information at arbitrary depth-levels. Photon-counting nonlinear matched filtering combined with the computational reconstruction provides promising results for the application of low-light level recognition.

Recently, many researchers have been interested in biometric systems such as fingerprint, handwriting, key-stroke patterns and human iris. From the viewpoint of reliability and robustness, iris recognition is the most attractive biometric system. Moreover, the iris recognition system is a comfortable biometric system, since the video image of an eye can be taken at a distance. In this paper, we discuss human iris recognition, which is based on accurate iris localization, robust feature extraction, and Neural Network classification. The iris region is accurately localized in the eye image using a multiresolution active snake model. For the feature representation, the localized iris image is decomposed using wavelet transform based on dyadic Haar wavelet. Experimental results show the usefulness of wavelet transform in comparison to conventional Gabor transform. In addition, we present a new method for setting initial weight vectors in competitive learning. The proposed initialization method yields better accuracy than the conventional method.

In this paper, a computer vision system, which catches printed music score image using CCTV camera and microcomputer, and then recognizes the image and performs tar music with speaker, is discussed. Integral projection method is adopted for feature detection and recognition of the music score image. The range of recognition is con(ined to staffs, perpen-dicular lines and musical notes including chord notes among the various kinds of elements of music score. The practical recognition algorithm considering noises, the preprocessing processes getting rid of noises are also showed, and simple hardware system playing chord is made, In the results, good recognition ratio and performance are obtained.

This paper realizes a system that recognizes traffic safety signs by applying the principle used for game in reverse. The game used for this paper is one that expresses the shape of temporary objects intended by the maker when the maker sees the numerical image provided on (x, y) coordinates and then expresses it on the mesh. After separating the traffic safety sign image from the input image, the system is realized by outputting the content of the sign into letters by recognizing the forms and colors constituting the sign using the puzzle game above. Our system has fast process time and better rate of recognition than the existing system with black-and-white image processing and recognition without any penciling progress.

In this paper, we propose a multiple classifier combination method based on image degradation modeling to improve recognition performance on low-quality images. Using an image degradation model, it generates a set of classifiers each of which is specialized for a specific image quality. In recognition, it combines the results of the recognizers by weighted averaging to decide the final result. At this time, the weight of each recognizer is dynamically decided from the estimated quality of the input image. It assigns large weight to the recognizer specialized to the estimated quality of the input image, but small weight to other recognizers. As the result, it can effectively adapt to image quality variation. Moreover, being a multiple-classifier system, it shows more reliable performance then the single-classifier system on low-quality images. In the experiment, the proposed multiple-classifier combination method achieved higher recognition rate than multiple-classifier combination systems not considering the image quality or single classifier systems considering the image quality.

Pre-existing pattern recognition techniques, in the case of character recognition, have limited on the application field. But CAI character learning system and writer's recognition system are very important parts. The application field of pre-existing system can be expanded in the content that the learning of characters and the recognition of writers in the proposed paper.

Finally, similarity measure functions are defined from standard character pattern for matching of the input character pattern. Also the effectiveness of this system is demonstrated by experimenting the standard primitive image.
