This paper proposes a new image processing algorithm to recognize korean documents. It take out the region of text area form input image, then it makes esgmentation of lines, words and characters in the text. A precision segmentation is very important to recognize the input document. The input image has 8-bit gray scaled resolution. Not only the histogram but also brightness dispersion graph are used for segmentation. The result shows a higher accuracy of document recognition.

An image processing algorithm is developed in order to recognize the type of cars, the position of a number plate and the characters on the plate. to recognize the type of cars, comparison of two images is used. One has a car image, the other is just a background image without car. After that recognition, a vertical line filter is used to find the location of the plate. Finally the simularity mehod is used to recognize the numbers on plates.

A high performance license plate recognition system (LPRS) is proposed in this work. The proposed LPRS is composed of the following three main stages: (i) plate region determination, (ii) character segmentation, and (iii) character recognition. During the plate region determination stage, the image is enhanced by image processing algorithms to increase system performance. The rectangular license plate region is obtained using edge-based image processing methods on the binarized image. With the help of skew correction, the plate region is prepared for the character segmentation stage. Characters are separated from each other using vertical projections on the plate region. Segmented characters are prepared for the character recognition stage by a thinning process. At the character recognition stage, a three-layer feedforward artificial neural network using a backpropagation learning algorithm is constructed and the characters are determined.

Gait recognition has advantage of non-contact type recognition. But It has disadvantage of low recognition rate when the pedestrian silhouette is changed due to bag or coat. In this paper, we proposed new method using combination of gait energy image feature and thermal face image feature. First, we extracted a face image which has optimal focusing value using human body rate and Tenengrad algorithm. Second step, we extracted features from gait energy image and thermal face image using linear discriminant analysis. Third, calculate euclidean distance between train data and test data, and optimize weights using genetic algorithm. Finally, we compute classification using nearest neighbor classification algorithm. So the proposed method shows a better result than the conventional method.

Cow image processing technique would be useful not only for recognizing an individual but also for establishing the image database and analyzing the shape of cows. A cow (Holstein) has usually the unique speckle pattern. In this study, the individual recognition of cow was carried out using the speckle pattern and the content-based image retrieval technique. Sixty cow images of 16 heads were captured under outdoor illumination, which were complicated images due to shadow, obstacles and walking posture of cow. Sixteen images were selected as the reference image for each cow and 44 query images were used for evaluating the efficiency of individual recognition by matching to each reference image. Run-lengths and positions of runs across speckle area were calculated from 40 horizontal line profiles for ROI (region of interest) in a cow body image after 3 passes of 5$\times$5 median filtering. A similarity measure for recognizing cow individuals was calculated using Euclidean distance of normalized G-frame histogram (GH). normalized speckle run-length (BRL), normalized x and y positions (BRX, BRY) of speckle runs. This study evaluated the efficiency of individual recognition of cow using Recall(Success rate) and AVRR(Average rank of relevant images). Success rate of individual recognition was 100% when GH, BRL, BRX and BRY were used as image query indices. It was concluded that the histogram as global property and the information of speckle runs as local properties were good image features for individual recognition and the developed system of individual recognition was reliable.

객체 검출 및 인식 과정은 컴퓨터비전 분야에서 매우 중요한 과업으로써, 관련 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 실제 객체 인식 과정에서는 학습된 이미지 데이터와 테스트 이미지 데이터간 해상도 차이로 인하여 인식기의 정확도 성능이 저하되는 문제가 종종 발생한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 객체 인식 정확도 향상을 위한 이미지 초해상도 기법을 제안하여 객체 인식 및 초해상도 통합 프레임워크를 설계하고 개발하였다. 세부적으로는 11,231장의 차량 번호판 훈련용 이미지를 웹 크롤링, 인조데이터 생성 등을 통해 자체적으로 구축하고, 이를 활용하여 이미지 좌우 반전에 강인하도록 목적함수를 정의하여 이미지 초해상도 인공 신경망을 훈련시켰다. 제안 방법의 성능을 검증하기 위해 훈련된 이미지 초해상도 및 번호 인식기 1,999장의 테스트 이미지에 실험하였고, 이를 통해 제안한 초해상도 기법이 문자 인식 정확도 개선 효과가 있음을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we present a CNN-based gesture recognition approach which reduces the memory burden of input data. Most of the neural network-based gesture recognition methods have used a sequence of frame images as input data, which cause a memory burden problem. We use a motion history image in order to define a meaningful gesture. The motion history image is a grayscale image into which the temporal motion information is collapsed by synthesizing silhouette images of a user during the period of one meaningful gesture. In this paper, we first summarize the previous traditional approaches and neural network-based approaches for gesture recognition. Then we explain the data preprocessing procedure for making the motion history image and the neural network architecture with three convolution layers for recognizing the meaningful gestures. In the experiments, we trained five types of gestures, namely those for charging power, shooting left, shooting right, kicking left, and kicking right. The accuracy of gesture recognition was measured by adjusting the number of filters in each layer in the proposed network. We use a grayscale image with 240 × 320 resolution which defines one meaningful gesture and achieved a gesture recognition accuracy of 98.24%.

Purpose - This study aims to verify the effect of sports sponsorship recognition on corporate image and the relationship between image and identification, corporate image and purchasing intention, brand identification and purchasing intention Research design, data, and methodology - To carry out the purpose of this study, a set of data was collected from 320 surveys and 305 of them were used. Statistic programs, SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 20.0, were used to analyze the data. Results - It was found that emotional sports sponsorship recognition and social sponsorship sports sponsorship recognition had positive effects on corporate image and brand identification. Corporate image also had a positive effect on brand identification. Besides, it was analyzed that corporate image and brand identification had positive effects on purchasing intention. Conclusions - The results show that sports sponsorship recognition can influence brand identification and purchasing intention, and contribute to the enhancement of corporate image. Since brand personality that matches the self-image of the targeted customer will have a more positive effect on the relationship with the consumer, marketing activities should be carried out so that the brand image can be identified with the company image of sports sponsorship activities.

In this paper, an interface between a human and a computer is presented. The human and computer interface(HCI) serves as another area of human and machine interfaces. Methods for the HCI we used are voice recognition and image recognition for detecting human's emotional feelings. The idea is that the computer can recognize the present emotional state of the human operator, and amuses him/her in various ways such as turning on musics, searching webs, and talking. For the image recognition process, the human face is captured, and eye and mouth are selected from the facial image for recognition. To train images of the mouth, we use the Hopfield Net. The results show 88%$\sim$92% recognition of the emotion. For the vocal recognition, neural network shows 80%$\sim$98% recognition of voice.

본 연구는 PCA와 템플릿 정합을 사용한 얼굴 표정 인식 알고리즘을 제안한다. 먼저 얼굴 영상은 Haar-like feature의 특징 마스크를 사용하여 획득한다. 획득한 얼굴 영상은 눈과 눈썹을 포함하고 있는 얼굴 상위 부분과 입과 턱을 포함하고 있는 얼굴 하위 부분으로 분리하여 얼굴 요소 추출에 용이하게 나눈다. 얼굴 요소 추출은 눈 영상과 입 영상을 추출하는 과정으로 먼저 학습영상으로 PCA를 거쳐 생성된 고유얼굴을 구한다. 고유 얼굴에서 고유 입과 고유 눈을 획득하고, 이를 얼굴 분리 영상과 템플릿 매칭시켜 얼굴요소를 추출한다. 얼굴 요소는 눈과 입이 있으며 두 요소의 기하학적 특징으로 표정을 인식한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험 결과에 따르면 제안한 방법이 기존의 방법보다 추출률이 우수하게 나왔으며, 특히 입 요소의 추출률은 99%에 달하였다. 또 이 얼굴 요소 추출 방법을 표정인식에 적용하였을 때 놀람, 화남, 행복의 3가지 표정의 인식률이 80%를 상회하였다.
