Image-image translation is a technology that creates a target image through input images, and has recently shown high performance in creating a more realistic image by utilizing GAN, which is a non-map learning structure. Therefore, there are various studies on image-to-image translation using GAN. At this point, most image-to-image translations basically target one attribute translation. But the data used and obtainable in real life consist of a variety of features that are hard to explain with one feature. Therefore, if you aim to change multiple attributes that can divide the image creation process by attributes to take advantage of the various attributes, you will be able to play a better role in image-to-image translation. In this paper, we propose Multi CycleGAN, a dual attribute transformation structure, by utilizing CycleGAN, which showed high performance among image-image translation structures using GAN. This structure implements a dual transformation structure in which three domains conduct two-way learning to learn about the two properties of an input domain. Experiments have shown that images through the new structure maintain the properties of the input area and show high performance with the target properties applied. Using this structure, it is possible to create more diverse images in the future, so we can expect to utilize image generation in more diverse areas.

In this paper, a problem of Thai sign language recognition using a neural network is considered. The paper addresses the problem in classifying certain signs conveying quantitative meaning, e.g., large or small. By treating those signs corresponding to different quantities as derived from different classes, the recognition error rate of the standard multi-layer Perceptron increases if the precision in recognizing different quantities is increased. This is due the fact that, to increase the quantitative recognition precision of those signs, the number of (increasingly similar) classes must also be increased. This leads to an increase in false classification. The problem is due to misinterpreting the amount of quantity the quantitative signs convey. In this paper, instead of treating those signs conveying quantitative attribute of the same quantity type (such as 'size' or 'amount') as derived from different classes, here they are considered instances of the same class. Those signs of the same quantity type are then further divided into different subclasses according to the level of quantity each sign is associated with. By using this two-level classification, false classification among main gesture classes is made independent to the level of precision needed in recognizing different quantitative levels. Moreover, precision of quantitative level classification can be made higher during the recognition phase, as compared to that used in the training phase. A standard multi-layer Perceptron with a back propagation learning algorithm was adapted in the study to implement this two-level classification of quantitative gesture signs. Experimental results obtained using an electronic glove measurement of hand postures are included.
