We propose a pattern classification model using a selective perception ability of human beings. Generally, human beings recognize an object by putting a selective concentration on it in the region of interest. Much better classification and recognition could be possible by adapting this phenomenon in pattern classification. First, the pattern classification model creates some reference cluster patterns in a usual way. Then it generates an SPM(Selective Perception Map) that reflects the mutual relation of the reference cluster patterns. In the recognition phase, the model applies the SPM as a weight for calculating the distance between an input pattern and the reference patterns. Our experiments show that the proposed classifier with the SPM acquired the better results than other approaches in pattern classification.

We propose a new method for recognizing the activities of daily living(ADL) based on the state-dependent motion analysis using 3-axial accelerometers and a glove type RFID reader. Two accelerometers are used for the classification of 5 body states based on the decision tree. Classification of the instrumental activities is performed based on the hand interaction with an object ID using an accelerometer and a RFID reader. Object-dependent hand movements are classified into 5 categories in advance and final decision combines the body state and the instrumental activities. Experiment shows that the suggested hierarchical motion analysis provides accuracy rate of over 90% for all 20 ADLs.

This study is a study on classifying land cover by applying high-resolution satellite images to deep learning algorithms and verifying the performance of algorithms for each spatial object. For this, the Fully Convolutional Network-based algorithm was selected, and a dataset was constructed using Kompasat-3 satellite images, land cover maps, and forest maps. By applying the constructed data set to the algorithm, each optimal hyperparameter was calculated. Final classification was performed after hyperparameter optimization, and the overall accuracy of DeeplabV3+ was calculated the highest at 81.7%. However, when looking at the accuracy of each category, SegNet showed the best performance in roads and buildings, and U-Net showed the highest accuracy in hardwood trees and discussion items. In the case of Deeplab V3+, it performed better than the other two models in fields, facility cultivation, and grassland. Through the results, the limitations of applying one algorithm for land cover classification were confirmed, and if an appropriate algorithm for each spatial object is applied in the future, it is expected that high quality land cover classification results can be produced.

Machine learning techniques using visual data have high usability in fields of industry and service such as scene recognition, fault detection, security and user analysis. Among these, user analysis through the videos from CCTV is one of the practical way of using vision data. Also, many studies about lightweight artificial neural network have been published to increase high usability for mobile and embedded environment so far. In this study, we propose the network combining the object detection and classification for mobile graphic processing unit. This network detects pedestrian and face, classifies age and gender from detected face. Proposed network is constructed based on MobileNet, YOLOv2 and skip connection. Both detection and classification models are trained individually and combined as 2-stage structure. Also, attention mechanism is used to improve detection and classification ability. Nvidia Jetson Nano is used to run and evaluate the proposed system.

With the recent development of intelligent transportation systems, various technologies applying deep learning technology are being used. To crackdown on illegal vehicles and criminal vehicles driving on the road, a vehicle type classification system capable of accurately determining the type of vehicle is required. This study proposes a vehicle type classification system optimized for mobile traffic control systems using YOLO(You Only Look Once). The system uses a one-stage object detection algorithm YOLOv5 to detect vehicles into six classes: passenger cars, subcompact, compact, and midsize vans, full-size vans, trucks, motorcycles, special vehicles, and construction machinery. About 5,000 pieces of domestic vehicle image data built by the Korea Institute of Science and Technology for the development of artificial intelligence technology were used as learning data. It proposes a lane designation control system that applies a vehicle type classification algorithm capable of recognizing both front and side angles with one camera.

This paper presents an efficient object-based color image-retrieval algorithm that is suitable for the classification and retrieval of images from small to mid-scale datasets, such as images in PCs, tablets, phones, and cameras. The proposed method first finds salient regions by using regional feature vectors, and also finds several dominant colors in each region. Then, each salient region is partitioned into small sub-blocks, which are assigned 1 or 0 with respect to the number of pixels corresponding to a dominant color in the sub-block. This gives a binary map for the dominant color, and this process is repeated for the predefined number of dominant colors. Finally, we have several binary maps, each of which corresponds to a dominant color in a salient region. Hence, the binary maps represent the spatial distribution of the dominant colors in the salient region, and the union (OR operation) of the maps can describe the approximate shapes of salient objects. Also proposed in this paper is a matching method that uses these binary maps and which needs very few computations, because most operations are binary. Experiments on widely used color image databases show that the proposed method performs better than state-of-the-art and previous color-based methods.

Stereoscopic conversion has been an important and challenging issue for many 3-D video applications. Usually, there are two different stereoscopic conversion approaches, i.e., image motion-based conversion that uses motion information and object-based conversion that partitions an image into moving or static foreground object(s) and background and then converts the foreground in a stereoscopic object. As well, since the input sequence is MPEG-1/2 compressed video, motion data stored in compressed bitstream are often unreliable and thus the image motion-based conversion might fail. To solve this problem, we present the utilization of key-motion that has the better accuracy of estimated or extracted motion information. To deal with diverse motion types, a transform space produced from motion vectors and color differences is introduced. A key-motion is determined from the transform space and its associated stereoscopic image is generated. Experimental results validate effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.

Support vector machine (SVM) classifiers have been widely used for object detection. These methods usually locate the object by finding the region with maximal score in an image. With bag-of-features representation, the SVM score of an image region can be written as the sum of its inside feature-weights. As a result, the searching process can be executed efficiently by using strategies such as branch-and-bound. However, the feature-weight derived by optimizing region classification cannot really reveal the category knowledge of a feature-point, which could cause bad localization. In this paper, we represent a region in an image by a collection of local feature-points and determine the object by the region with the maximum posterior probability of belonging to the object class. Based on the Bayes' theorem and Naive-Bayes assumptions, the posterior probability is reformulated as the sum of feature-scores. The feature-score is manifested in the form of the logarithm of a probability ratio. Instead of estimating the numerator and denominator probabilities separately, we readily employ the density ratio estimation techniques directly, and overcome the above limitation. Experiments on a car dataset and PASCAL VOC 2007 dataset validated the effectiveness of our method compared to the baselines. In addition, the performance can be further improved by taking advantage of the recently developed deep convolutional neural network features.

The aim of the paper is to present an object recognition method toward augmented reality system that utilizes existing education instruments that was designed without any consideration on image processing and recognition. The light reflection, sizes, shapes, and color range of the existing target education instruments are major hurdles to our object recognition. In addition, the real-time performance requirements on embedded devices and user experience constraints for children users are quite challenging issues to be solved for our image processing and object recognition approach. In order to meet these requirements we employed a method cascading light-weight weak classification methods that are complimentary each other to make a resultant complicated and highly accurate object classifier toward practically reasonable precision ratio. We implemented the proposed method and tested the performance by video with more than 11,700 frames of actual playing scenario. The experimental result showed 0.54% miss ratio and 1.35% false hit ratio.
