This research proposes a generalized local feature structure named "LSG(Local Surface Group) for model-based 3D object recognition". An LSG consists of a surface and its immediately adjacent surface that are simultaneously visible for a given viewpoint. That is, LSG is not a simple feature but a viewpoint-dependent feature structure that contains several attributes such as surface type. color, area, radius, and simultaneously adjacent surface. In addition, we have developed a new method based on Bayesian theory that computes a measure of how distinct an LSG is compared to other LSGs for the purpose of object recognition. We have experimented the proposed methods on an object databaed composed of twenty 3d object. The experimental results show that LSG and the Bayesian computing method can be successfully employed to achieve rapid 3D object recognition.

The most popular approach in object classification is based on the bag of visual-words model, which has several fundamental problems that restricting the performance of this method, such as low time efficiency, the synonym and polysemy of visual words, and the lack of spatial information between visual words. In view of this, an object classification based on weakly supervised E2LSH and saliency map weighting is proposed. Firstly, E2LSH (Exact Euclidean Locality Sensitive Hashing) is employed to generate a group of weakly randomized visual dictionary by clustering SIFT features of the training dataset, and the selecting process of hash functions is effectively supervised inspired by the random forest ideas to reduce the randomcity of E2LSH. Secondly, graph-based visual saliency (GBVS) algorithm is applied to detect the saliency map of different images and weight the visual words according to the saliency prior. Finally, saliency map weighted visual language model is carried out to accomplish object classification. Experimental results datasets of Pascal 2007 and Caltech-256 indicate that the distinguishability of objects is effectively improved and our method is superior to the state-of-the-art object classification methods.

The relational data model is based on mathematical concept of relations and is well formulated, and so there have been numerous practical applications and studies. However, it is not suitable for representing a complex hierarchical structure, which is the characteristic of most geographical objects. On the other hand, the object-oriented data model can naturally represent a complex hierarchical structure, but there is a difficulty in sharing data with the relational data model which is currently used by most commercial GIS users. Also it has no standard query language with standardized format. In this paper, we propose an Object Grouping based on RDBMS to use data from a traditional relational data model while supporting various concepts of the object-oriented data model, and we applied this data model to design a GIS.

Based on the principles described in Part I, we have implemented a working prototype vision system using a feature structure called an LSG (local surface group) for generating object hypotheses. In order to verify an object hypothesis, we estimate the view of the hypothesized model object and render the model object for the computed view. The object hypothesis is then verified by finding additional features in the scene that match those present in the rendered image. Experimental results on synthetic and real range images show the effectiveness of the indexing scheme.

It's difficult to find efforts for individualization other than suggesting simple, branching level learning materials among the developed courseware. The reason is primarily attributed to the facts that the courseware itself is not flexible, a fixed structure which is not reusable, and numerous costs and time should be consumed to develop one. In the same context of the appearance of the object-oriented concept in the method of software development, the concept of 'learning object' has appeared in the development of courses and contents, paving the way toward the possibility of designing versatile courses through the learning object. In the learning object-based course design, however, it still has similar shape and structure to the existing courseware, and the effort to realize the individualized learning by utilizing the learning object is not sufficient, as well. In this study, I suggest a outlined learning object model which can support the individualized learning by expanding the existing learning object, and based on th is model. design a instructional model that can show an individualized learning path, based on the ADDIE model.

In this paper, we propose a target image exchange model to improve performance of the object tracking algorithm based on a Siamese network. The object tracking algorithm based on the Siamese network tracks the object by finding the most similar part in the search image using only the target image specified in the first frame of the sequence. Since only the object of the first frame and the search image compare similarity, if tracking fails once, errors accumulate and drift in a part other than the tracked object occurs. Therefore, by designing a CNN(Convolutional Neural Network) based model, we check whether the tracking is progressing well, and the target image exchange timing is defined by using the score output from the Siamese network-based object tracking algorithm. The proposed model is evaluated the performance using the VOT-2018 dataset, and finally achieved an accuracy of 0.611 and a robustness of 22.816.

CenterNet, a novel object detection algorithm without anchor based on key points, regards the object as a single center point for prediction and directly regresses the object's height and width. However, because the objects have different sizes, directly regressing their height and width will make the model difficult to converge and lose the intrinsic relationship between object's width and height, thereby reducing the stability of the model and the consistency of prediction accuracy. For this problem, we proposed an algorithm based on the regression of the diagonal half-length and the center angle, which significantly compresses the solution space of the regression components and enhances the intrinsic relationship between the decoded components. First, encode the object's width and height into the diagonal half-length and the center angle, where the center angle is the angle between the diagonal and the vertical centreline. Secondly, the predicted diagonal half-length and center angle are decoded into two length components. Finally, the position of the object bounding box can be accurately obtained by combining the corresponding center point coordinates. Experiments show that, when using CenterNet as the improved baseline and resnet50 as the Backbone, the improved model achieved 81.6% and 79.7% mAP on the VOC 2007 and 2012 test sets, respectively. When using Hourglass-104 as the Backbone, the improved model achieved 43.3% mAP on the COCO 2017 test sets. Compared with CenterNet, the improved model has a faster convergence rate and significantly improved the stability and prediction accuracy.

Background: Inspection of livestock farms using surveillance cameras is emerging as a means of early detection of transboundary animal disease such as African swine fever (ASF). Object tracking, a developing technology derived from object detection aims to the consistent identification of individual objects in farms. Objectives: This study was conducted as a preliminary investigation for practical application to livestock farms. With the use of a high-performance artificial intelligence (AI)-based 3D depth camera, the aim is to establish a pathway for utilizing AI models to perform advanced object tracking. Methods: Multiple crossovers by two humans will be simulated to investigate the potential of object tracking. Inspection of consistent identification will be the evidence of object tracking after crossing over. Two AI models, a fast model and an accurate model, were tested and compared with regard to their object tracking performance in 3D. Finally, the recording of pig pen was also processed with aforementioned AI model to test the possibility of 3D object detection. Results: Both AI successfully processed and provided a 3D bounding box, identification number, and distance away from camera for each individual human. The accurate detection model had better evidence than the fast detection model on 3D object tracking and showed the potential application onto pigs as a livestock. Conclusions: Preparing a custom dataset to train AI models in an appropriate farm is required for proper 3D object detection to operate object tracking for pigs at an ideal level. This will allow the farm to smoothly transit traditional methods to ASF-preventing precision livestock farming.

This paper presents the polygon-based Q-leaning and Parallel SVM algorithm for object search with multiple robots. We organized an experimental environment with one hundred mobile robots, two hundred obstacles, and ten objects. Then we sent the robots to a hallway, where some obstacles were lying about, to search for a hidden object. In experiment, we used four different control methods: a random search, a fusion model with Distance-based action making (DBAM) and Area-based action making (ABAM) process to determine the next action of the robots, and hexagon-based Q-learning, and dodecagon-based Q-learning and parallel SVM algorithm to enhance the fusion model with Distance-based action making (DBAM) and Area-based action making (ABAM) process. In this paper, the result show that dodecagon-based Q-learning and parallel SVM algorithm is better than the other algorithm to tracking for object.

We propose an Agent-based Fault Tolerant Object Group model based on the agent technology and FTOG model with replication mechanism for effective object management and fault recovery. We define the five kind of agents - internal processing agent, registration agent, state handling agent, user interface agent, and service agent - that extend the functions of the FTOG model. The roles of the agents in the proposed model are to reduce the remote interactions between distributed objects and provide more effective service execution. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed model, we implemented the Intelligent Home Network Simulator (IHNS) which virtually provides general home networking services. Through the simulations, it is validated that the proposed model decreases the interactions of the object components and supports the effective fault recovery, while providing more stable and reliable services.
