Because a word of Korean digits is a syllable and deeply coarticulatied in connected digits, some recognition models based on demisyllables have been proposed by researchers. However, they could not show an excellent recognition results yet. This paper proposes a recognition model based on extended and context-dependent demisyllables, such as a tri-demisyllable like a tri-phone, for the Korean 4-connected digits recognition. For experiments, we use a toolkit of HTK 3.0 for building this model of continuous HMMs using training Korean connected digits from SiTEC database and for recognizing unknown ones. The results show that the recognition rate is 92% and this model has an ability to improve the recognition performance of Korean connected digits.

There has been many research efforts to overcome the problems of speech recognition in noisy conditions. Among the noise-robust speech recognition methods, model-based adaptation approaches have been shown quite effective. Particularly, the PMC (parallel model combination) method is very popular and has been shown to give considerably improved recognition results compared with the conventional methods. In this paper, we experimented with the VTS (vector Taylor series) algorithm which is also based on the model parameter transformation but has not attracted much interests of the researchers in this area. To verify the effectiveness of it, we employed the algorithm in the continuous density HMM (Hidden Markov Model). We compared the performance of the VTS algorithm with the PMC method and could see that the it gave better results than the PMC method.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution is bringing about great changes in many industrial fields, and among them, active research is being conducted on convergence technology using artificial intelligence. Among them, the demand is increasing day by day in the field of object recognition using artificial intelligence and digital transformation using recognition results. In this paper, we proposed an optimal learning model construction method to accurately recognize letters, symbols, and lines in images and save the recognition results as files in a standardized format so that they can be used in simulations. In order to recognize letters, symbols, and lines in images, the characteristics of each recognition target were analyzed and the optimal recognition technique was selected. Next, a method to build an optimal learning model was proposed to improve the recognition rate for each recognition target. The recognition results were confirmed by setting different order and weights for character, symbol, and line recognition, and a plan for recognition post-processing was also prepared. The final recognition results were saved in a standardized format that can be used for various processing such as simulation. The excellent performance of building the optimal learning model proposed in this paper was confirmed through experiments.

Practical pattern recognition systems should overcome very large class problem. Sometimes it is almost impossible to build every model for every class due to memory and time constraints. For this case, grouping similar models will be helpful. In this paper, we propose GMC(Group Model Clustering) to build a large class Chinese character recognition system. We built hidden Markov models for 10% of total classes, then classify the rest of classes into already trained group classes. Finally group models are trained using group model clustered data. Recognition is performed using only group models, in order to achieve reduced model size and improved recognition speed.

For educational and research purposes, a Korean speech recognition platform is designed. It is based on an object-oriented architecture and can be easily modified so that researchers can readily evaluate the performance of a recognition algorithm of interest. This platform will save development time for many who are interested in speech recognition. The platform includes the following modules: Noise reduction, end-point detection, met-frequency cepstral coefficient (MFCC) and perceptually linear prediction (PLP)-based feature extraction, hidden Markov model (HMM)-based acoustic modeling, n-gram language modeling, n-best search, and Korean language processing. The decoder of the platform can handle both lexical search trees for large vocabulary speech recognition and finite-state networks for small-to-medium vocabulary speech recognition. It performs word-dependent n-best search algorithm with a bigram language model in the first forward search stage and then extracts a word lattice and restores each lattice path with a trigram language model in the second stage.

The Fingerprint recognition system is a system which identify the user's identify by verifying user's fingerprint and prepared data. The performance of fingerprint recognition system is dependent on 'fingerprint recognition time' and 'fingerprint recognition accuracy' and so on. In this paper, we developed a evaluation model about efficiency based on ISO quality evaluation standard for evaluating of quality level of fingerprint recognition system. We expect to contribute to construct and use of evaluation criteria based on quality evaluation standard by this study.

It has been known that there is strong relationship between human voices and the movements of the articulatory facial muscles. In this paper, we utilize this knowledge to implement an automatic speech recognition scheme which uses solely surface electromyogram (EMG) signals. The EMG signals were acquired from three articulatory facial muscles. Preliminary, 10 Korean digits were used as recognition variables. The various feature parameters including filter bank outputs, linear predictive coefficients and cepstrum coefficients were evaluated to find the appropriate parameters for EMG-based speech recognition. The sequence of the EMG signals for each word is modelled by a hidden Markov model (HMM) framework. A continuous word recognition approach was investigated in this work. Hence, the model for each word is obtained by concatenating the subword models and the embedded re-estimation techniques were employed in the training stage. The findings indicate that such a system may have a capacity to recognize speech signals with an accuracy of up to 90%, in case when mel-filter bank output was used as the feature parameters for recognition.

As one of the most widely used technology in the world right now, Face recognition has already received widespread attention by all the researcher and institutes. It has been used in many fields such as safety protection, surveillance system, crime control and even in our ordinary life such as home security and so on. This technology with today's technology has advantages such as high connectivity and real time transformation. But we still need to improve its recognition rate, reaction time and also reduce impact of different environmental status to the whole system. So in this paper we proposed a face recognition system model with improved CNN which combining the characteristics of flat network and residual network, integrated learning, simplify network structure and enhance portability and also improve the recognition accuracy. We also used AR and ORL database to do the experiment and result shows higher recognition rate, efficiency and robustness for different image conditions.

Rough classification methods are used to improving the recognition speed in many character recognition problems. In this case, some irreversible result can occur by an error in rough classification. Methods for duplicating each model in several classes are used in order to reduce this risk. But the errors by rough classfication can not be completely ruled out by these methods. In this paper, an recognition method is proposed to increase speed that matches models selectively without any increase in error. This method constructs a model graph using similarity between models. Then a search process begins from a particular point in the model graph. In this process, matching of unnecessary models are reduced that are not similar to the input pattern. In this paper, the proposed method is applied to the recognition problem of handwriting numbers and upper/lower cases of English alphabets. In the experiments, the proposed method was compared with the basic method that matches all models with input pattern. As a result, the same recognition rate, which has shown as the basic method, was obtained by controlling the out-degree of the model graph and the number of maintaining candidates during the search process thereby being increased the recognition speed to 2.45 times.

Recognition model is not defined when you configure a model, Been added to the model after model building awareness, Model a model of the clustering due to lack of recognition models are generated by modeling is causes the degradation of the recognition rate. In order to improve decision tree state tying modeling using parameter estimation of Bayesian method. The parameter estimation method is proposed Bayesian method to navigate through the model from the results of the decision tree based on the tying state according to the maximum probability method to determine the recognition model. According to our experiments on the simulation data generated by adding noise to clean speech, the proposed clustering method error rate reduction of 1.29% compared with baseline model, which is slightly better performance than the existing approach.
