The detection of engine misfire events is one of major concerns in engine control due to its negative effect on air pollution and engine performance. In this paper, a misfire detection system based on crankshaft angular speed fluctuation is developed. Synthetic variable method is adopted for the preprocessing of crankshaft angular speed. This method successfully estimates the work output of each cylinder by finding the effect of combustion energy on the crankshaft rotational speed or acceleration after virtually removing the effect of the internal inertia forces from the measured crankshaft speed signals. The detection system is developed using neural network with the revised synthetic angular acceleration as input which is derived from the preprocessing. Mathematical simulation is carried out for developing and verifying the misfire detection system. Finally, the reliability of the developed system is validated through an experiment.

A real-time inspection system is developed using line scan cameras. Several improved algorithms are proposed for real-time detection of defects in this automated inspection system. The major improved algorithms include the preprocessing, the threshold decision, and the clustering algorithms. The preprocessing algorithms are for exact binarization and the threshold decision algorithm is for fast detection of defects in 1-D binary images. The clustering algorithm is also developed for fast classifying of the defects. The system is applied to PCBs(Printed Circuit Boards) inspection. The typical defects in PCBs are pits, dent, wrinkle, scratch, and black spots. The results show that most defects are detected and classified successfully.

This paper has been studied a Adaptive feature-factors based fingerprints recognition in many biometrics. we study preprocessing and matching method of fingerprints image in various circumstances by using optical fingerprint input device. The Fingerprint Recognition Technology had many development until now. But, There is yet many point which the accuracy improves with operation speed in the side. First of all we study fingerprint classification to reduce existing preprocessing step and then extract a Feature-factors with direction information in fingerprint image. Also in the paper, we consider minimization of noise for effective fingerprint recognition system.

In general, non-stationary or chaos time series forecasting is very difficult since there exists a drift and/or nonlinearities in them. To overcome this situation, we suggest a new prediction method based on multiple model TS fuzzy predictors combined with preprocessing of time series data, where, instead of time series data, the differences of them are applied to predictors as input. In preprocessing procedure, the candidates of optimal difference interval are determined by using con-elation analysis and corresponding difference data are generated. And then, for each of them, TS fuzzy predictor is constructed by using k-means clustering algorithm and least squares method. Finally, the best predictor which minimizes the performance index is selected and it works on hereafter for prediction. Computer simulation is performed to show the effectiveness and usefulness of our method.

본 논문은 지문 영상의 전처리중 이진화 수행과정에서 지문 영상의 국부적 밝기 차이에 따른 가장 큰 애로점인 임계치(threshold value) 설정을 대상 지문 영역의 밝기 등에 스스로 적응할 수 있도록 Silt Sum 방법을 응용한 적을 이진화를 수행하였다. 기존의 방법과 비교하여 본 연구에서 제시한 개선된 전처리 방법은 보다 높은 인식 정확도를 제공하며, 이에 따라 실험 결과에서 보는 바와 같이 지문 인식을 위한 특징점 추출 알고리즘에 적용될 수 있다.

Todays the efficient management of container has not been realized in container terminal, because of the excessive quantity of container transported and manual system. For the efficient and automated management of container in terminal, the automated container identifier recognition system in terminal is a significant problem. However, the identifier recognition rate is decreased owing to the difficulty of image preprocessing caused the refraction of container surface, the change of weather and the damaged identifier characters. Therefore, this paper proposes more accurate system for container identifier recognition as suggestion of Line-Scan Proper Region Detect for stronger preprocessing against external noisy element and Moment Back-Propagation Neural Network to recognize identifier.

An wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring system is a widely used non-invasive diagnostic tool for ambulatory patient who may be at risk from latent life-threatening cardiac abnormalities. In this paper, we have a portable ECG monitoring system with conductive fiber which was characterized by the small-size and the low power consumption. The system consists of conductive fibers, one-chip microcontroller, ECG preprocessing circuit, and monitoring software to be able to record and analyze in PC. ECG preprocessing circuit is made of pre-amplifier with gain of 10, band-pass filter with bandwidth of 0.5-120Hz and 2.5V offset circuit for A/D conversion. ECG signals obtained by sensor are included with corrupted noises such as a baseline wandering, 60 Hz power noise and interference noise by body movement. For cancellation corrupted noises in signals obtained by conductive fiber, we used the wavelet decomposition of wavelet transforms in MATLAB toolbox.

In a still mill, the effective surface defect inspection algorithm is necessary. For this purpose, this paper proposed the preprocessing algorithm for surface defect inspection of cold mill strip. This consists of live steps. They are edge detection, binarizing, noise deletion, combining of fragmented defect and selecting the largest defect. Especially, binarizing is a critical problem. Bemuse the performance of the preprocessing is largely depend on the binarized image. So, we develope the adaptive thresholding method, which is multilevel thresholding. The thresholding value is varied according to the mean graylevel value of each test image. To investigate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we classified the detected defect using neural network. The test image is 20 defect images captured at German Sick Co. This algorithm is proved to have good property in cold mill strip surface inspection.

딥러닝의 발전으로 다양한 컴퓨터 비전 연구를 수행할 수 있게 됐다. 딥러닝은 컴퓨터 비전 연구 중 이미지 처리에서 높은 정확도와 성능을 보여줬다. 하지만 대부분의 이미지 처리 방식은 이미지의 시각 정보만을 이용해 이미지를 처리하는 경우가 대부분이다. 이미지-텍스트 쌍을 활용할 경우 이미지와 관련된 설명, 주석 등의 텍스트 데이터가 이미지 자체에서는 얻기 힘든 추가적인 맥락과 시각 정보를 제공할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이미지-텍스트 쌍을 활용하여 이미지와 텍스트를 분석하는 딥러닝 모델 제안한다. 제안 모델은 이미지 정보만을 사용한 딥러닝 모델보다 약 11% 향상된 분류 정확도 결과를 보였다.
