In this paper, we propose a ground plane detection algorithm, using a new image processing method (IPD). To extract the ground plane from the color image acquired by monocular camera, we use a new identical pixel detection method (IPD) and an edge detection method. This IPD method decides whether the pixel is identical with the ground plane pixel or not. The IPD method needs the reference area and its performance depends on the reference area size. So we propose the reference area auto-expanding algorithm in accordance with situation. And we evaluated the proposed algorithm by the experiments in the various environments. From the experiments results, we know that the proposed algorithm is efficient in the real indoor environment.

본 논문에서는 히스토그램에 기반한 영상분할과 결정트리구조를 이용하여 효율적으로 도로의 차선을 검출하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 시스템은 먼저 차선을 감지하기 위한 방법으로 그레이 레벨을 이용한 히스토그램의 특성을 사용하였고, 감지된 차선은 결정트리에 의해 보다 명확히 분류되어, 도로와 차선과의 관계를 분석할 수 있었다. 또한 시스템은 약 30Hz의 실시간 속도로 작동하면서 차선감지는 물론, 차선의 추적이나 장애물 감지의 효과도 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper proposes a method to extract accurate plane of an object in unstructured environment for a humanoid robot by using a laser scanner. By panning and tilting 2D laser scanner installed on the head of a humanoid robot, 3D depth map of unstructured environment is generated. After generating the 3D depth map around a robot, the proposed plane extraction method is applied to the 3D depth map. By using the hierarchical clustering method, points on the same plane are extracted from the point cloud in the 3D depth map. After segmenting the plane from the point cloud, dimensions of the planes are calculated. The accuracy of the extracted plane is evaluated with experimental results, which show the effectiveness of the proposed method to extract planes around a humanoid robot in unstructured environment.

As shared electric kick scooters spread to cities worldwide as a result of the proliferation of personal mobility, they have emerged as a significant social issue, impacting pedestrian and user safety, as well as urban aesthetics. In this study, we propose solutions to the unique problems associated with shared electric kick scooters, such as illegal parking, charging, and redistribution. Furthermore, we present research on supplementary services utilizing electric kick scooters in urban areas to enhance citizen safety and user satisfaction through the development of an autonomous electric kick scooter system structure and operational strategies. We suggest a low-cost autonomous electric kick scooter structure and propose AI processing, sensor fusion, and system operation methods to add autonomous capabilities to affordable electric kick scooters. Additionally, we propose operational systems and related technologies for offering various supplementary services.

Environment perception and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction tasks are used to provide unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) with driving awareness interfaces. The speed of obstacle segmentation and surrounding terrain reconstruction crucially influences decision making in UGVs. To increase the processing speed of environment information analysis, we develop a CPU-GPU hybrid system of automatic environment perception and 3D terrain reconstruction based on the integration of multiple sensors. The system consists of three functional modules, namely, multi-sensor data collection and pre-processing, environment perception, and 3D reconstruction. To integrate individual datasets collected from different sensors, the pre-processing function registers the sensed LiDAR (light detection and ranging) point clouds, video sequences, and motion information into a global terrain model after filtering redundant and noise data according to the redundancy removal principle. In the environment perception module, the registered discrete points are clustered into ground surface and individual objects by using a ground segmentation method and a connected component labeling algorithm. The estimated ground surface and non-ground objects indicate the terrain to be traversed and obstacles in the environment, thus creating driving awareness. The 3D reconstruction module calibrates the projection matrix between the mounted LiDAR and cameras to map the local point clouds onto the captured video images. Texture meshes and color particle models are used to reconstruct the ground surface and objects of the 3D terrain model, respectively. To accelerate the proposed system, we apply the GPU parallel computation method to implement the applied computer graphics and image processing algorithms in parallel.

음성학에서 음성이 가지고 있는 주파수 특성을 이용하여 스펙트럼을 추출할 수 있고 이를 이용하여 음성을 분석할 수 있다. 그러나 음성의 스펙트럼은 단모음의 경우 어느 정도 일정한 형태를 유지하지만 음절. 단어 등과 같이 자음과 모음이 서로 결합되었을 때는 상당한 변화가 발생된다. 이는 음소단위 음성인식에 있어서 가장 큰 장애가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 주파수 영역과 청각적 인상을 고려한 멜 대역 그리고 멜 켑스트럼을 이용하여 각 자음과 모음이 가지고 있는 스펙트럼을 분석하고, 청각적 특성을 반영한 음성의 변화를 체계화하여 음성을 음소단위로 분할할 수 있는 기반을 제공한다.

In this paper, we propose the automatic detection method for individual region separation using panorama image. Finding areas that contain individual teeth is one of the most important tasks in automating 3D models through individual tooth separation. In the conventional method, the maxillary and mandibular teeth regions are separated using a straight line or a specific CT slide, and the tooth regions are separated using a straight line in the vertical direction. In the conventional method, since the teeth are arranged in a curved shape, there is a problem that each tooth region is incorrectly detected in order to generate an accurate tooth region. This is a major obstacle to automating the creation of individual tooth models. In this study, we propose a method to find the correct tooth curve by using the jawbone curve which is very similar to the tooth curve in order to overcome the problem of finding the area containing the existing tooth. We have proposed a new method to accurately set individual tooth regions using the feature that individual teeth are arranged in a direction similar to the normal direction of the tooth alignment curve. In the proposed method, the maxillary and mandibular teeth can be more precisely separated than the conventional method, and the area including the individual teeth can be accurately set. Experiments using real dental CT images demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method.

Construction machinery is exposed to accidents such as collisions, narrowness, and overturns during operation. In particular, mobile crane is operated only with the driver's vision and limited information of the assistant worker. Thus, there is a high risk of an accident. Recently, some collision avoidance device using sensors such as cameras and LiDAR have been applied. However, they are still insufficient to prevent collisions in the omnidirectional 3D space. In this study, a rotating LiDAR device was developed and applied to a 250-ton crane to obtain a full-space point cloud. An algorithm that could provide distance information and safety status to the driver was developed. Also, deep-learning segmentation algorithm was used to classify human-worker. The developed device could recognize obstacles within 100m of a 360-degree range. In the experiment, a safety distance was calculated with an error of 10.3cm at 30m to give the operator an accurate distance and collision alarm.
