This thesis deals with a novel font-dependent Hangul recognition algorithm invariant to position translation, scaling, and rotation using circular pattern vectors. The proposed algorithm removes noise from input letters using binary morphology and generates the circular pattern vectors. The generated circular pattern vectors represent spatial distributions on several concentric circles from the center of gravity in a given letter. Then the algorithm selects the letter minimizing the distance between the reference vectors and the generated circular pattern vectors. In order to estimate performances of the proposed algorithm, the completed Batang Hangul 2,350 letters were used as test images with scaling and rotational transformations. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm are better than conventional algorithm using the ring projection in the recognition rates of Hangul letters with scaling and rotational transformation.

본 논문에서는 두 단백질의 구조적 유사성을 기반으로 한 단백질 비교를 위해서 전처리 기법으로서의 주성분분석기법을 소개한다. 기존의 백본 및 알파탄소 간의 거리행렬(distance matrix), 2차 구조 비교기법, 구역(segment)단위의 비교 기법과 같은 단백질 비교 기법들은 위치이동(translation)와 회전(rotation)에 불변한(invariant) 차이를 구하기 위하여 거리행렬을 이용하였다. 그리고, 난 다음 이들의 최적화 과정을 거쳤다. 그러나, 본 논문에서 제시하는 전처리 기법으로서의 주성분분석기법은 단백질 구조를 전체적인 구조 관점에서 위치를 정렬시킨 후에 단백질 간의 구조를 비교하는 방식이다. 단백질의 구조의 방향성(Orientation)을 맞춘 다음에는 다양한 단백질 표현으로 구를 비교할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 두 단백질의 구조의 유사성을 측정하기 위한 간결한 단백질 표현(representation)으로 3 차원 에지 히스토그램을 사용하였다. 이 기법은 방향성을 정렬하기 위하여 기존의 방법에서 사용되었던 반복적인 거리계산을 통한 최적화하는 과정을 없앰으로써 단백질 구조 비교 시간을 단축할 수 있는 새로운 단백질 구조 비교 패러다임을 가능하게 한다. 따라서, 이 패러다임을 통하여 적절한 단백질 구조 방향성 정렬과 단백질 구조 표현을 이용한 단백질 구조 비교 검색 시스템은 많은 양의 단백질 구조 정보로부터 원하는 형태의 단백질 구조를 빠른 시간에 검색할 수 있는 장점을 가질 수 있다.

In this paper, a texture feature extraction method using local energy and local correlation of Gabor transformed images is proposed and applied to an image retrieval system. The Gabor wavelet is known to be similar to the response of the human visual system. The outputs of the Gabor transformation are robust to variants of object size and illumination. Due to such advantages, it has been actively studied in various fields such as image retrieval, classification, analysis, etc. In this paper, in order to fully exploit the superior aspects of Gabor wavelet, local energy and local correlation features are extracted from Gabor transformed images and then applied to an image retrieval system. Some experiments are conducted to compare the performance of the proposed method with those of the conventional Gabor method and the popular rotation-invariant uniform local binary pattern (RULBP) method in terms of precision vs recall. The Mahalanobis distance is used to measure the similarity between a query image and a database (DB) image. Experimental results for Corel DB and VisTex DB show that the proposed method is superior to the conventional Gabor method. The proposed method also yields precision and recall 6.58% and 3.66% higher on average in Corel DB, respectively, and 4.87% and 3.37% higher on average in VisTex DB, respectively, than the popular RULBP method.

Applications of 3D data increase with advancement of multimedia technique and contents, and it is necessary to manage and to retrieve for 3D data efficiently. In this paper, we propose a new method using the sliced shape which extracts efficiently a feature description for shape-based retrieval of 3D models. Since the feature descriptor of 3D model should be invariant to translation, rotation and scale for its model, normalization of models requires for 3D model retrieval system. This paper uses principal component analysis(PCA) method in order to normalize all the models. The proposed algorithm finds a direction of each axis by the PCA and creates orthogonal n planes in each axis. These planes are orthogonalized with each axis, and are used to extract sliced shape image. Sliced shape image is the 2D plane created by intersecting at between 3D model and these planes. The proposed feature descriptor is a distribution of Euclidean distances from center point of sliced shape image to its outline. A performed evaluation is used for average of the normalize modified retrieval rank(ANMRR) with a standard evaluation from MPEG-7. In our experimental results, we demonstrate that the proposed method is an efficient 3D model retrieval.
