Deep learning advancements can solve computer vision problems, but large-scale datasets are necessary for high accuracy. In this paper, we propose an image generation technique using object bounding boxes and image edge components. The object bounding boxes are extracted from the images through object detection, and image edge components are used as input values for the image generation model to create new image data. As results of experiments, the images generated by the proposed method demonstrated similar image quality to the source images in the image quality assessment, and also exhibited good performance during the deep learning training process.

This paper proposes a novel forward vehicle tracking algorithm based on the WMIL(Weighted Multiple Instance Learning) equipped with a particle filter. In the proposed algorithm Haar-like features are used to train a vehicle object detector to be tracked and the location of the object are obtained from the recognition result. In order to combine both the WMIL to construct the vehicle detector and the particle filter, the proposed algorithm updates the object location by executing the propagation, observation, estimation, and selection processes involved in particle filter instead of finding the credence map in the search area for every frame. The proposed algorithm inevitably increases the computation time because of the particle filter, but the tracking accuracy was highly improved compared to Ababoost, MIL(Multiple Instance Learning) and MIL-based ones so that the position error was 4.5 pixels in average for the videos of national high-way, express high-way, tunnel and urban paved road scene.

Algal bloom is an important issue in maintaining the safety of the drinking water supply system. Fast detection and classification of algae images are essential for the management of algal blooms. Conventional visual identification using a microscope is a labor-intensive and time-consuming method that often requires several hours to several days in order to obtain analysis results from field water samples. In recent decades, various deep learning algorithms have been developed and widely used in object detection studies. YOLO is a state-of-the-art deep learning algorithm. In this study the third version of the YOLO algorithm, namely, YOLOv3, was used to develop an algae image detection model. YOLOv3 is one of the most representative one-stage object detection algorithms with faster inference time, which is an important benefit of YOLO. A total of 1,114 algae images for 30 genera collected by microscope were used to develop the YOLOv3 algae image detection model. The algae images were divided into four groups with five, 10, 20, and 30 genera for training and testing the model. The mean average precision (mAP) was 81, 70, 52, and 41 for data sets with five, 10, 20, and 30 genera, respectively. The precision was higher than 0.8 for all four image groups. These results show the practical applicability of the deep learning algorithm, YOLOv3, for algae image detection.

In this paper, we propose a method to learn the redesigned class with background and object for semantic segmentation of indoor scene image. Semantic image segmentation is a technique that divides meaningful parts of an image, such as walls and beds, into pixels. Previous work of semantic image segmentation has proposed methods of learning various object classes of images through neural networks, and it has been pointed out that there is insufficient accuracy compared to long learning time. However, in the problem of separating objects and backgrounds, there is no need to learn various object classes. So we concentrate on separating objects and backgrounds, and propose method to learn after class simplification. The accuracy of the proposed learning method is about 5 ~ 12% higher than the existing methods. In addition, the learning time is reduced by about 14 ~ 60 minutes when the class is configured differently In the same environment, and it shows that it is possible to efficiently learn about the problem of separating the object and the background.

In this paper, we propose the Detector Scheduler which determines the best tracking-by-detection (TBD) mechanism to perform real-time high-accurate multi-object tracking (MOT). The Detector Scheduler determines whether to run a detector by measuring the dissimilarity of features between different frames. Furthermore, we propose a self-supervision method to learn the Detector Scheduler with tracking results since it is difficult to generate ground truth (GT) for learning the Detector Scheduler. Our proposed self-supervision method generates pseudo labels on whether to run a detector when the dissimilarity of the object cardinality or appearance between frames increases. To this end, we propose the Detector Scheduling Loss to learn the Detector Scheduler. As a result, our proposed method achieves real-time high-accurate multi-object tracking by boosting the overall tracking speed while keeping the tracking accuracy at most.

An online mean-shift object tracking algorithm, which consists of a learning stage and an estimation stage, is proposed in this work. The learning stage selects the features for tracking, and the estimation stage composes a likelihood image and applies the mean shift algorithm to it to track an object. The tracking performance depends on the quality of the likelihood image. We propose two schemes to generate and integrate likelihood images: one based on the discrete AdaBoost (DAB) and the other based on the real AdaBoost (RAB). The DAB scheme uses tuned feature values, whereas RAB estimates class probabilities, to select the features and generate the likelihood images. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm provides more accurate and reliable tracking results than the conventional mean shift tracking algorithms.

This research studies the Virtual Reality simulation of Newton's physics law on rigid body type of objects for physics learning. With network support, collaborative interaction is enabled so that people from different places can interact with the same set of objects in Collaborative Virtual Environment. The taxonomy of the interaction in different levels of collaboration is described as: distinct objects and same object, in which there are same object - sequentially, same object - concurrently - same attribute, and same object - concurrently - distinct attributes. The case studies are the interaction of users in two cases: destroying and creating a set of arranged rigid bodies. We identify a specific type of application for contents authoring with modeling systems integrated with real-time physics and implemented in VR system. In our application called Virtual Dollhouse, users can observe physics law while constructing a dollhouse using existing building blocks, under gravity effects.

Experties of recognizing an object despite of every possible occlusions among objects is difficult to be provided directly to a system. In this paper, we propose a method for inferring inherent shape-characteirstics of an object from training views provided. The method learns rules incrementally by alternating the rule induction process from limited number of training views and the rule verification process from the following taining views. The learned rules are represented using logical expressions to enhance the readability. Thr proposed method is tested by simulating occlusions on 2-dimensional objects to examine the learning process and to show improvement of recognition rate. Thr result shows that it can be applied to a practical system for 3-dimensional object recognition.

In this paper, we propose fast object detection method of the cars by applying YOLOv2(You Only Look Once version 2) and UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) while on the highway. We operated Darknet, OpenCV, CUDA and Deep Learning Server(SDX-4185) for our simulation environment. YOLOv2 is recently developed fast object detection algorithm that can detect various scale objects as fast speed. YOLOv2 convolution network algorithm allows to calculate probability by one pass evaluation and predicts location of each cars, because object detection process has simple single network. In our result, we could find cars on the highway area as fast speed and we could apply to the real time.
