  • Parkinson's disease is a growing and chronic movement disorder, and its diagnosis is difficult especially at the initial stages. In this paper, movement characteristics extracted by a computer using multilayer back propagation neural network mapping are converted to the symptoms of this disease. Then, modulation of three classifiers of C4.5, k-nearest neighbors, and support vector machine with majority voting are applied to support experts in diagnosing the disease. The purpose of this study is to choose appropriate characteristics and increase the accuracy of the diagnosis. Experiments were performed to demonstrate the improvement of Parkinson's disease diagnosis using this method.

  • We consider the visual barcode recognition problem in a noisy video data setup. Unlike most existing single-frame recognizers that require considerable user effort to acquire clean, motionless and blur-free barcode signals, we eliminate such extra human efforts by proposing a robust video-based barcode recognition algorithm. We deal with a sequence of noisy blurred barcode image frames by posing it as an online filtering problem. In the proposed dynamic recognition model, at each frame we infer the blur level of the frame as well as the digit class label. In contrast to a frame-by-frame based approach with heuristic majority voting scheme, the class labels and frame-wise noise levels are propagated along the frame sequences in our model, and hence we exploit all cues from noisy frames that are potentially useful for predicting the barcode label in a probabilistically reasonable sense. We also suggest a visual barcode tracking approach that efficiently localizes barcode areas in video frames. The effectiveness of the proposed approaches is demonstrated empirically on both synthetic and real data setup.

  • 4:10 deserializer is proposed to recover 1:10 serial data using 1/4-rate clock. And then, 1/4-rate CDR(Clock and Data Recovery) circuit was designed for SERDES of high-speed serial display interface. The reduction of clock frequency using 1/4-rate clocking helps relax the speed limitation when higher data transfer is demanded. This circuit is composed of 1/4-rate sampler, PEL(Phase Error Logic), Majority Voting, Digital Filter, DPC(Digital to Phase Converter) and 4:10 deserializer. The designed CDR has been designed in a standard $0.18{\mu}m$ 1P6M CMOS technology and the recovered data jitter is 14ps in simulation.

  • 오프라인 필기체 숫자 인식에서 다양한 변형을 잘 흡수 할 수 있는 효율적인 특징을 찾는 것은 중요한 일이며, 본 논문에서는 이를 위해 다양한 단일특징들을 구현 하였으며, 단일 특징만으로는 만족 할 만한 성능을 기대하기 어렵기 때문에 다양한 단일 특징을 복합특징으로 구성하였다. 또한 오프라인 필기체 숫자인식에서 좋은 성능을 발휘하는 것으로 알려진 신경회로망으로 학습을 하였으며, 인식의 성능을 개선시키기 위해 효과적인 특징을 조합하여 하나의 단일 신경회로망들을 구성하고 그것을 다시 복합신경회로망으로 구성하여 성능을 실험 함으로서 성능의 향상을 볼 수 있었고, 신경회로망에 더하여 성능을 개선시키기 위해 신경회로망을 보완 할 수 있는 다수결 투표 방법을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서는 신경회로망의 인식 결과를 비교 분석하여 최적의 특징을 찾아 낸 결과를 2차 다수결 투표를 사용하여 인식하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방식의 성능을 검증하기 위해서 Concorida 대학교의 CENPARIMI 숫자 데이터 베이스를 가지고 인식을 수행 하였으며. 그 결과 97.40%의 정인식률과 0.75%의 오인식률 그리고 1.85%의 거부률을 보였다.

  • 얼굴 인증에서 가장 보편적으로 사용되고 있는 주성분 분석(PCA . Principal Component Analysis)은 정면 얼굴과 같은 특징 패턴에 대해서 비교적 높은 성능을 보인다. 인식률을 떨어뜨리지 않으면서 데이터량을 줄일 수 있는 효과가 있어 클래스를 잘 축약하여 표현하기에 유용하다. 하지만 조명이나 표정의 변화에 대해서는 성능을 보장할 수 없다 이를 보완하기 위해 성분이 다른 클래스간의 분리가 수월하도록 선형판별분석(LDA Linear Discriminant Analysis)을 사용한다 LDA는 데이터의 양이 적을 때는 성능이 떨어지는 단점이 있다 그래서 PCA와 LDA를 융합한 기술을 사용하면 더 나은 성능을 얻을 수 있는데 Min, Max, Mean, Append, Majority voting방법 등이 이에 해당된다. 하지만 기존 연구에서는 제한적 데이터베이스에 대한 실험에 그쳐 실험 결과의 객관성이 부족했다. 본 논문에서는 정형화된 환경에서 여러 가지 데이터베이스를 사용해 실험함으로써 Min, Max, Mean 융합 알고리즘의 성능을 비교 분석한다. 융합 알고리즘이 언제나 좋은 성능을 내는 것은 아니지만 얼굴영상에서 조명이나 표정 등이 변화함에 상관없이 일정 수준의 인증율을 보장하고 있다.

  • This paper focuses on identifying which appliance is currently operating by analyzing electrical load signature for home energy monitoring system. The identification framework is comprised of three steps. Firstly, specific appliance features, or signatures, were chosen, which are DC (Duty Cycle), SO (Slope of On-state), VO (Variance of On-state), and ZC (Zero Crossing) by reviewing observations of appliances from 13 houses for 3 days. Five appliances of electrical rice cooker, kimchi-refrigerator, PC, refrigerator, and TV were chosen for the identification with high penetration rate and total operation-time in Korea. Secondly, K-NN and Naive Bayesian classifiers, which are commonly used in many applications, are employed to estimate from which appliance the signatures are obtained. Lastly, one of candidates is selected as final identification result by majority voting. The proposed identification frame showed identification success rate of 94.23%.

  • The ocean is very important to mankind for its infinite value in resource storage and utilization. In shallow coastal waters, landfill as well as pollution damage occurs frequently for the promotion of important public and private projects that are the driving forces of national development. In this case, compensation paid for the loss or damage of fishing rights acquired by the fishing community shall be distributed to each individual of the fishing community in accordance with the appropriate balance. In reality, as fishing communities in different sectors coexist, the voting rights of the general meeting of fishing communities are ignored as a minority, and the demand for the rights is ignored by the majority. Many other industries receive fish compensation, even though they have not suffered much damage. As a result serious conflicts between the individuals of the fishing community have caused social problems. Therefore, similar cases are investigated and analyzed to provide a reasonable solution.

  • We follow the promising recent results of deploying the public key cryptography in sensor networks. Recent results have shown that the public key algorithms are computationally feasible on the typical sensor nodes. However, once the public key cryptography is brought to the sensor network, security services such like key authentication will be critically required. In this paper we investigate the public key authentication problem in the sensor network and provide several authentication protocols. Our protocols are mainly based on the non-solvable overhearing in the wireless environment and a distributed voting mechanism. To show the value of our protocols, we provide an extensive analysis of the used resources and the resulting security level. As well, we compare our work with other existing works. For further benefit of our protocols, we list several additional applications in the sensor network where our protocols provide a sufficient authentication under the constrained resources.

  • In order to analyze the effect of strengthening the disclosure of remuneration for high-paid workers among the measures to improve the governance structure of financial companies by the Financial Services Commission in 2018, this study demonstrated the compensation system, management performance, and improvement of governance for Korean financial companies from 2015 to 2020. Analysis was performed. As a result of the empirical analysis, it was found that financial companies after 2018 decreased the employee compensation disparity and the majority shareholding ratio, while the stock performance and foreign ownership ratio increased. This study has the greatest contribution in that it is the first domestic study to verify the effect of applying the so-called Say on Pay, which discloses management's remuneration and allows shareholders to check its appropriateness through voting.
