In this paper, we propose a new two-stage segmentation method for the effective object recognition which uses region-growing algorithm and k-means clustering method. At first, an image is segmented into many small regions via region growing algorithm. And then the segmented small regions are merged in several regions so that the regions of an object may be included in the same region using typical k-means clustering method. This paper also establishes similarity measurement which is useful for object recognition in an image. Similarity is measured by fuzzy system whose input variables are compactness, magnitude of biasness and orientation of biasness of the object image, which are geometrical features of the object. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed two-stage segmentation method and similarity measurement, experiments for object recognition were made and the results show that they are applicable to object recognition under normal circumstance as well as under abnormal circumstance of being.

컴퓨터 비전(Computer vision) 분야에서 물체인식을 위한 많은 알고리즘이 연구되고 있다. 그중 특징점(feature) 기반의 SURF(Speeded Up Robust Features) 알고리즘은 다른 알고리즘에 비해 속도와 정확도 면에서 우수하다. 하지만 SURF 알고리즘은 대응점 검출 시 대응점 오정합으로 물체인식에 실패하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문은 물체 인식률을 향상하기 위하여 SURF와 RANSAC(Random Sample Consensus) 알고리즘을 기반으로 물체인식 시스템을 구현하고, 패턴인식 필터링을 제안하였다. 또한, 실험을 통하여 물체 인식률 향상 결과를 제시하였다.

Recently, self-driving research has been actively studied in various institutions. Accurate recognition is important because information about surrounding objects is needed for safe autonomous driving. This study mainly deals with the signal processing of LiDAR among sensors for object recognition. LiDAR is a sensor that is widely used for high recognition accuracy. First, we clustered and tracked objects by predicting relative position and speed of objects. The characteristic points of all objects were extracted using point cloud data of each objects through proposed algorithm. The Classification between vehicle and pedestrians is estimated using number of characteristic points and distances among characteristic points. The algorithm for classifying cars and pedestrians was implemented and verified using test vehicle equipped with LiDAR sensors. The accuracy of proposed object classification algorithm was about 97%. The classification accuracy was improved by about 13.5% compared with deep learning based algorithm.

The object recognition mechanism of human being is not well understood yet. On research of animal experiment using an ape, however, neurons that respond to simple shape (e.g. circle, triangle, square and so on) were found. And Hypothesis has been set up as human being may recognize object as combination of such simple shapes. That mechanism is called Figure Alphabet Hypothesis, and those simple shapes are called Figure Alphabet. As one way to research object recognition algorithm, we focused attention to this Figure Alphabet Hypothesis. Getting idea from it, we proposed the feature extraction algorithm for object recognition. In this paper, we described recognition of binarized images of multifont alphabet characters by the recognition model which combined three-layered neural network in the feature extraction algorithm. First of all, we calculated the difference between the learning image data set and the template by the feature extraction algorithm. The computed finite difference is a feature quantity of the feature extraction algorithm. We had it input the feature quantity to the neural network model and learn by backpropagation (BP method). We had the recognition model recognize the unknown image data set and found the correct answer rate. To estimate the performance of the contriving recognition model, we had the unknown image data set recognized by a conventional neural network. As a result, the contriving recognition model showed a higher correct answer rate than a conventional neural network model. Therefore the validity of the contriving recognition model could be proved. We'll plan the research a recognition of natural image by the contriving recognition model in the future.

Artificial intelligence is evolving rapidly in the ICT field, smart convergence media system and content industry through the fourth industrial revolution, and it is evolving very rapidly through Big Data. In this paper, we propose a face recognition method based on object recognition based on object recognition through artificial intelligence.

In the conventional 3D image field, general research on object recognition has been carried out variously, and researches have been conducted on the side effects of visual fatigue and dizziness through 3D image. However, in this study, we tried to solve the problem caused by the quantitative difference between object recognition and object recognition for human factor algorithm that measure visual fatigue through cognitive function, morphological analysis and object recognition. Especially, The new method of computer interaction is presented and the results are shown through experiments.

This paper describes the algorithm that lowers the dimension, maintains the object recognition and significantly reduces the eigenspace configuration time by combining the edge orientation histogram and principle component analysis. By using the detected object region as a recognition input image, in this paper the object recognition method combined with principle component analysis and the multi-layer network which is one of the intelligent classification was suggested and its performance was evaluated. As a pre-processing algorithm of input object image, this method computes the eigenspace through principle component analysis and expresses the training images with it as a fundamental vector. Each image takes the set of weights for the fundamental vector as a feature vector and it reduces the dimension of image at the same time, and then the object recognition is performed by inputting the multi-layer neural network.

In this paper, we propose a new object representation method and matching algorithm for object recognition using a 3-fingered robot hand. Each finger tip can measure normal vector and shapes of a contacting surface. Object is represented by the inter-surface description table where the features of a surface are described in the diagonal and the relations between two surfaces are in the upper diagonal. Based on this table, a fast and the efficient matching algorithm has been proposed. This algorithm can be applied to natural quadric objects.

This paper proposes a new algorithm for detecting and recognizing overlapped objects among a stack of arbitrarily located objects using a signature representation scheme. The proposed algorithm consists of two processes of detecting overlap of objects and of determining the boundary between overlapping objects. To determine overlap of objects, in the first step, the edge image of object region is extracted and those areas in the object region are considered as the object areas if an area is surrounded by a closed edge. For each object, its signature image is constructed by measuring the distances of those edge points from the center of the object, along the angle axis, which are located at every angle with reference to the center of the object. When an object is not overlapped, its features which consist of the positions and angles of outstanding points in the signature are searched in the database to find its corresponding model. When an object is overlapped, its features are partially matched with those object models among which the best matching model is selected as the corresponding model. The boundary among the overlapping objects is determined by projecting the signature to the original image. The performance of the proposed algorithm has been tested with the task of picking the top or non-overlapped object from a stack of arbitrarily located objects. In the experiment, a recognition rate of 98% has been achieved.

The process of extracting external boundary of an object is a very important process for recognizing an object in the image. The proposed extraction method consists of two processes: External Boundary Extraction and Thinning. In the first step, external boundary extraction process separates the region representing the object in the input image. Then, only the pixels adjacent to the background are selected among the pixels constituting the object to construct an outline of the object. The second step, thinning process, simplifies the outline of an object by eliminating unnecessary pixels by examining positions and interconnection relations between the pixels constituting the outline of the object obtained in the previous extraction process. As a result, the simplified external boundary of object results in a higher recognition rate in the next step, the object recognition process.
