We propose a character recognition system to extract the component reference names from printed circuit boards (PCBs) automatically. The names are written in horizontal, vertical, reverse-horizontal and reverse-vertical directions. Also various symbols and figures are included in PCBs. To recognize the character and orientation effectively, we divide the recognizer into two stages: character classification stage and orientation classification stage. The character classification stage consists of two sub-recognizers and a verifier. The rotaion-invarint features of input pattern are then used to identify the character independent of orientation. Each recognizer is implemented as a neural network, and the weight values of verifier are obtained by genetic algorithm. In the orientation classification stage, the input pattern is compared with reference patterns to identify the orientation. Experimental results are presented to verify the usefulness of the proposed system.

본 논문에서는 LVQ 네트워크의 패턴 분류 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 n차원 입력 벡터로 형성되는 초구면(hypersphere)에서의 반지름을 LVQ 네트워크의 학습 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 방식은 동일한 클래스에서 n+1개의 입력 벡터를 포함하는 초구면을 구성하여 반지름을 계산한다. 계산된 반지름을 이용하여 기준 벡터(reference vector)를 조정하는 방법이다. 제안한 방식의 유용성을 확인하기 위하여 Fisher의 IRIS 꽃의 분류 문제에 적용하여 기존의 LVQ 방식보다 우수한 분류 성능을 확인하였다.

A surface encoder based on the Half-shaded square pattern (HSSP) is presented. The HSSP working as reference grid is composed of the straight lines which are easy to be fabricated and make measuring time short. Since the periodic cell is separated in ON/OFF by the $45^{\circ}$ straight line, the duration from the starting point of scanning to the first rising edge and the duty cycle of the pulse train vary with respect to the position of the starting point. And the relationship between X and Y position and the duration, and duty cycle is described in the simple linear equation. Therefore, it is possible to measure X and Y position with the measured duration and duty cycle without calculating load. Through the test set-up, the feasibility of the proposed surface encoder was verified. Also the future works for improvement of performance were suggested.

By tilting the reference mirror of Twynman-Green interferometer having a reference mirror and a moving mirror, firinge pattern composed of bright and dark parallel lines can be obtained and the fringe pattern is shifted according to the displacement of the mowing mirror. Several studies are executed for displacement measurement by detecting the intensity of the fringe with photo-diodes having small detecting area. In this study, to improve the sensitivity and robustness, the intensity of fringe is detected by using a large-area quadratic photo-diode masked with a grating panel having four kinds of binary grating having phase-difference of 0, {\pi}$/4, {\pi}$/2, 3 {\pi}$/4. The phase of the fringe is calculated with a simple 4-buckets algorithm. A experimental result shows that standard deviation of 5.653 nm is obtained comparing with a capacitive type gap sensor having nearly 1 nm accuracy.

In this paper, we propose two kinds of chaos dimensions, the fuzzy correlation and fuzzy Lyapunov dimensions, for speaker recognition. The proposal is based on the point that chaos enables us to analyze the non-linear information contained in individual's speech signal and to obtain superior discrimination capability. We confirm that the proposed fuzzy chaos dimensions play an important role in enhancing speaker recognition ratio, by absorbing the variations of the reference and test pattern attractors. In order to evaluate the proposed fuzzy chaos dimensions, we suggest speaker recognition using the proposed dimensions. In other words, we investigate the validity of the speaker recognition parameters, by estimating the recognition error according to the discrimination error of an individual speaker from the reference pattern.

An isolated-word recognition method using adaptively partitioned multisection codebooks is proposed. Each training utterance was divided into several sections according to its pattern extracted by labeling technique. For each pattern, reference codebooks were generated by clustering the training vectors of the same section. In recognition procedure, input speech was divided into the sections by the same method used in codebook generation procedure, and recognized to the reference word whose codebook represented the smallest average distortion. The proposed method was tested for 100 Korean words and attained recognition rate about 96 percent.

This paper deals with the problem of steering a group of mobile robots along a reference path while maintaining a desired geometric formation. To solve this problem, the overall formation is decomposed into numerous geometric patterns composed of pairs of robots, and the state of the geometric patterns is defined. A control algorithm for the problem is proposed based on the Nash equilibrium strategies incorporating receding horizon control (RHC), also known as model predictive control (MPC). Each robot calculates a control input over a finite prediction horizon and transmits this control input to its neighbor. Considering the motion of the other robots in the prediction horizon, each robot calculates the optimal control strategy to achieve its goals: tracking a reference path and maintaining a desired formation. The performance of the proposed algorithm is validated using numerical simulations.

본 논문에서는 수정된 LVQ를 이용한 패턴 분류 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 방식은 입력 패턴의 분류 성능을 개선하기 위하여 입력 벡터와 기준 벡터 사이의 확률 분포의 비대칭도를 계산하여 학습에 이용한다. 학습을 하는 동안 기준 벡터는 입력 벡터의 확률 분포에 근접하게 되고, 기준 벡터는 Bayes 분류기의 결정 경계에 근접하게 위치한다. 가우시안 분포의 데이터와 Fisher의 IRIS 데이터 분류를 실험하여 LVQ1, LVQ2, GLVQ와 비교하여 제안한 방식이 우수한 분류 성능을 나타냄을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a phase-only modulation scheme for a three-dimensional (3-D) image matching system to improve optical efficiency of the system. The 3-D image matching system is based on the two mask heterodyne scanning. A hologram of the 3-D reference object is first created and then the phase of the hologram is extracted. The phase of the hologram is represented as one mask with the other mask being a plane wave. The superposition of each beam modulated by the two masks generated a scanning beam pattern. This beam pattern scans the 3-D target object to be recognized. The output of the scanning system gives out the correlation of the phase-only hologram of the reference object and the complex hologram of the target object. Since a hologram contains 3-D information of an object as a form of fringe pattern, the correlation of holograms matches whole 3-D aspect of the objects. Computer simulations are performed with additive gaussian noise and without noise for the complex hologram modulation scheme and the phase-only hologram modulation scheme. The computer simulation results show that the phase-only hologram modulation scheme improves the optical efficiency. Thus the system with the phase-only hologram modulation scheme is more robust than the system with the complex hologram modulation scheme.

A bolometer sensor used in an infrared thermal imaging system has many advantages on the process because it does not need a separate cooling system and its manufacturing is easy. However the sensitivity of the bolometer is low and the fixed pattern noise(FPN) is large, because the bolometer sensor is made by micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS). These problems can be fixed-by using the high performance readout integrated circuit(ROIC) with noise reduction techniques. In this paper, we propose differential delta sampling circuit to remove the mismatch noise of ROIC itself, the FPN of the bolometer. And for reduction of FPN noise, the reference signal compensation circuit which compensate the reference signal by using on-resistance of MOS transistor was proposed.
