In this paper, a new korean digita speech recognition technique was proposed using muktolayer perceptron (MLP). In spite of its weakness in dynamic signal recognition, MLP was adapted for this model, cecause korean syllable could give static features. It is so simle in its structure and fast in its computing that MLP was used to the suggested system. MLP's input vectors was transformed using karhunen-loeve transformation (KLT), which compress signal successfully without losin gits separateness, but its physical properties is changed. Because the suggested technique could extract static features while it is not affected from the changes of syllable lengths, it is effectively useful for korean numeric recognition system. Without decreasing classification rates, we can save the time and memory size for computation using KLT. The proposed feature extraction technique extracts same size of features form the tow same parts, front and end of a syllable. This technique makes frames, where features are extracted, using unique size of windows. It could be applied for continuous speech recognition that was not easy for the normal neural network recognition system.

This paper proposes a face recognition method using feature spaces and image vectors in the image plane. We obtain the 2-D feature space using the self-organizing map which has two inputs from the axis of the given image. The image vector consists of its weights and the average gray levels in the feature space. Also, we can reconstruct an normalized face by using the image vector having no connection with the size of the given face image. In the proposed method, each face is recognized with the best match of the feature spaces and the maximum match of the normally retrieval face images, respectively. For enhancing recognition rates, our method combines the two recognition methods by the feature spaces and the retrieval images. Simulations are conducted on the ORL(Olivetti Research laboratory) images of 40 persons, in which each person has 10 facial images, and the result shows 100% recognition and 14.5% rejection rates for the 20$\times$20 feature sizes and the 24$\times$28 retrieval image size.

Technologies of the 4th industrial revolution have been unknowingly seeping into our lives. Many IoT based home security systems are using the convolutional neural network(CNN) as good biometrics to recognize a face and protect home and family from intruders since CNN has demonstrated its excellent ability in image recognition. In this paper, three layouts of CNN for 2D and 2.5D image of small dataset with various input image size and filter size are explored. The simulation results show that the layout of CNN with 50*50 input size of 2.5D image, 2 convolution and max pooling layer, and 3*3 filter size for small dataset of 2.5D image is optimal for a home security system with recognition accuracy of 0.966. In addition, the longest CPU time consumption for one input image is 0.057S. The proposed layout of CNN for a face recognition is suitable to control the actuators in the home security system because a home security system requires good face recognition and short recognition time.

This study is to investigate the KS size recognition and mother's preference of female children's apparel. The practical research is performed for 150 mothers lived in Seoul and are randomly selected to their age, female children's number, education and income level. For statistical analysis and evaluation of survey data, frequency and percentage use contingency table. Findings in this study as follow: 1. Mother's preference for purchasing the girl's garments shows the significant differences of their subject characteristics such as age, girl's number, education and income level. 2. Mother's recognition about KSK 9403: 2004 sizing system for girl's garments does not show the significant differences of their subject properties. Most mothers only know the part of the KS size specifications because KS sizing systems are complex. So KS sizing systems must be simplified and respecified to understand the KS for mothers easily when purchasing their girl's garments. In summary this paper investigates mother's preference and recognition about KS sizing system for the girl's garments.

This paper devices a facial expression recognition method robust to overfitting using 2D-DCT and EHMM algorithm. In particular, this paper achieves enhanced recognition performance by setting up a large window size for 2D-DCT feature extraction and extracting the observation vectors of EHMM. The experimental results on the CK facial expression database and the JAFFE facial expression database showed that the facial expression recognition accuracy was improved according as window size is large. Also, the proposed method revealed the recognition accuracy of 87.79% and showed enhanced recognition performance ranging from 46.01% to 50.05% in comparison to previous approaches based on histogram feature, when CK database is employed for training and JAFFE database is used to test the recognition accuracy.

In an effort to improve speech recognition, we investigated the effect of the number of clusters. In usual LBG clustering, the number of codebook clusters is doubled on each bifurcation and hence cannot be chosen arbitrarily in a natural way. To have the number of clusters at our control, we combined adaptive resonance theory (ART2) with LBG and perform the clustering in two stages. The codebook thus formed was used in subsequent processing of fuzzy vector quantization (FVQ) and HMM for speech recognition tests. Compared to conventional LBG, our method was shown to reduce the best recognition error rate by 0${\sim$}0.9% depending on the vocabulary size. The result also showed that between 400 and 800 would be the optimal number of clusters in the limit of small and large vocabulary speech recognitions of isolated words, respectively.

A multi-font, multi-size and high speed character recognition system is designed. The design principles are simpilcity of algorithm, adaptibility, learnability, hierachical data processing and attention by feed back. For the multi-size character recognition, the extracted character images are normalized. A hierachical classifier classifies the feature vectors. Feature is extracted by applying the directional receptive field after the directional dege filter processing. The hierachical classifier is consist of two pre-classifiers and one decision making classifier. The effect of two pre-classifiers is prediction to the final decision making classifier. With the pre-classifiers, the time to compute the distance of the final classifier is reduced. Recognition rate is 95% for the three documents printed in three kinds of fonts, total 1,700 characters. For high speed implemention, a multiprocessor system with the ring structure of four transputers is implemented, and the recognition speed of 30 characters per second is aquired.

This paper presents a comparative study of four pattern recognition algorithms which are invariant to translations, rotations, and scale changes of the input object; namely, object shape features (OSF), geometrica fourier mellin transform (GFMT), moment invariants (MI), and centered polar exponential transform (CPET). Pattern description is obviously one of the most important aspects of pattern recognition, which is useful to describe the object shape independently of translation, rotation, or size. We first discuss problems that arise in the conventional invariant pattern recognition algorithms, or size. We first discuss problems that arise in the coventional invariant pattern recognition algorithms, then we analyze their performance using the same criterion. Computer simulations with several distorted images show that the CPET algorithm yields better performance than the other ones.

Recently, there have been many issues related to text recognition using Tesseract. One of these issues is that the text recognition accuracy is significantly lower for smaller fonts. Tesseract extracts text by creating an outline with direction in the image. By searching the Tesseract database, template matching with characters with similar feature points is used to select the character with the lowest error. Because of the poor text extraction, the recognition accuracy is lowerd. In this paper, we compared text recognition accuracy after applying various super-resolution methods to smaller text images and experimented with how the recognition accuracy varies for various image size. In order to recognize small Korean text images, we have used super-resolution algorithms based on deep learning models such as SRCNN, ESRCNN, DSRCNN, and DCSCN. The dataset for training and testing consisted of Korean-based scanned images. The images was resized from 0.5 times to 0.8 times with 12pt font size. The experiment was performed on x0.5 resized images, and the experimental result showed that DCSCN super-resolution is the most efficient method to reduce precision error rate by 7.8%, and reduce the recall error rate by 8.4%. The experimental results have demonstrated that the accuracy of text recognition for smaller Korean fonts can be improved by adding super-resolution methods to the OCR preprocessing module.
