Robot Operating System (ROS) has been a prominent and successful framework used in robotics business and academia.. However, the framework has long been focused and limited to navigation of robots and manipulation of objects in the environment. This focus leaves out other important field such as speech recognition, vision abilities, etc. Our goal is to take advantage of ROS capacity to integrate additional libraries of programming functions aimed at real-time computer vision with a depth-image camera. In this paper we will focus on the implementation of an upgraded vision with the help of a depth camera which provides a high quality data for a much enhanced and accurate understanding of the environment. The varied data from the cameras are then incorporated in ROS communication structure for any potential use. For this particular case, the system will use OpenCV libraries to manipulate the data from the camera and provide a face-detection capabilities to the robot, while navigating an indoor environment. The whole system has been implemented and tested on the latest technologies of Turtlebot3 and Raspberry Pi4.

Recently, artificial neural networks have been playing a crucial role and advancing across various fields. Artificial neural networks are typically categorized into feedforward neural networks and recurrent neural networks. However, feedforward neural networks are primarily used for processing static spatial patterns such as image recognition and object detection. They are not suitable for handling temporal signals. Recurrent neural networks, on the other hand, face the challenges of complex training procedures and requiring significant computational power. In this paper, we propose memristors suitable for an advanced form of recurrent neural networks called reservoir computing systems, utilizing a mask processor. Using the characteristic equations of Ti/TiOx/TaOy/Pt, Pt/TiOx/Pt, and Ag/ZnO-NW/Pt memristors, we generated current-voltage curves to verify their memristive behavior through the confirmation of hysteresis. Subsequently, we trained and inferred reservoir computing systems using these memristors with the NIST TI-46 database. Among these systems, the accuracy of the reservoir computing system based on Ti/TiOx/TaOy/Pt memristors reached 99%, confirming the Ti/TiOx/TaOy/Pt memristor structure's suitability for inferring speech recognition tasks.

A recently the advancement of society, AI technology has made significant strides, especially in the fields of computer vision and voice recognition. This study introduces a system that leverages these technologies to recognize users through a camera and relay commands within a vehicle based on voice commands. The system uses the YOLO (You Only Look Once) machine learning algorithm, widely used for object and entity recognition, to identify specific users. For voice command recognition, a machine learning model based on spectrogram voice analysis is employed to identify specific commands. This design aims to enhance security and convenience by preventing unauthorized access to vehicles and IoT devices by anyone other than registered users. We converts camera input data into YOLO system inputs to determine if it is a person, Additionally, it collects voice data through a microphone embedded in the device or computer, converting it into time-domain spectrogram data to be used as input for the voice recognition machine learning system. The input camera image data and voice data undergo inference tasks through pre-trained models, enabling the recognition of simple commands within a limited space based on the inference results. This study demonstrates the feasibility of constructing a device management system within a confined space that enhances security and user convenience through a simple real-time system model. Finally our work aims to provide practical solutions in various application fields, such as smart homes and autonomous vehicles.

Recently, SNS has become an important channel for marketing as well as personal communication. However, cybercrime has also evolved with the development of information and communication technology, and illegal advertising is distributed to SNS in large quantity. As a result, personal information is lost and even monetary damages occur more frequently. In this study, we propose a method to analyze which sentences and documents, which have been sent to the SNS, are related to financial fraud. First of all, as a conceptual framework, we developed a matrix of conceptual characteristics of cybercriminality on SNS and emergency management. We also suggested emergency management process which consists of Pre-Cybercriminality (e.g. risk identification) and Post-Cybercriminality steps. Among those we focused on risk identification in this paper. The main process consists of data collection, preprocessing and analysis. First, we selected two words 'daechul(loan)' and 'sachae(private loan)' as seed words and collected data with this word from SNS such as twitter. The collected data are given to the two researchers to decide whether they are related to the cybercriminality, particularly financial fraud, or not. Then we selected some of them as keywords if the vocabularies are related to the nominals and symbols. With the selected keywords, we searched and collected data from web materials such as twitter, news, blog, and more than 820,000 articles collected. The collected articles were refined through preprocessing and made into learning data. The preprocessing process is divided into performing morphological analysis step, removing stop words step, and selecting valid part-of-speech step. In the morphological analysis step, a complex sentence is transformed into some morpheme units to enable mechanical analysis. In the removing stop words step, non-lexical elements such as numbers, punctuation marks, and double spaces are removed from the text. In the step of selecting valid part-of-speech, only two kinds of nouns and symbols are considered. Since nouns could refer to things, the intent of message is expressed better than the other part-of-speech. Moreover, the more illegal the text is, the more frequently symbols are used. The selected data is given 'legal' or 'illegal'. To make the selected data as learning data through the preprocessing process, it is necessary to classify whether each data is legitimate or not. The processed data is then converted into Corpus type and Document-Term Matrix. Finally, the two types of 'legal' and 'illegal' files were mixed and randomly divided into learning data set and test data set. In this study, we set the learning data as 70% and the test data as 30%. SVM was used as the discrimination algorithm. Since SVM requires gamma and cost values as the main parameters, we set gamma as 0.5 and cost as 10, based on the optimal value function. The cost is set higher than general cases. To show the feasibility of the idea proposed in this paper, we compared the proposed method with MLE (Maximum Likelihood Estimation), Term Frequency, and Collective Intelligence method. Overall accuracy and was used as the metric. As a result, the overall accuracy of the proposed method was 92.41% of illegal loan advertisement and 77.75% of illegal visit sales, which is apparently superior to that of the Term Frequency, MLE, etc. Hence, the result suggests that the proposed method is valid and usable practically. In this paper, we propose a framework for crisis management caused by abnormalities of unstructured data sources such as SNS. We hope this study will contribute to the academia by identifying what to consider when applying the SVM-like discrimination algorithm to text analysis. Moreover, the study will also contribute to the practitioners in the field of brand management and opinion mining.

Various devices are connected to the Internet, and attacks using the Internet are occurring. Among such attacks, there are attacks that use malicious URLs to make users access to wrong phishing sites or distribute malicious viruses. Therefore, how to detect such malicious URL attacks is one of the important security issues. Among recent deep learning technologies, neural networks are showing good performance in image recognition, speech recognition, and pattern recognition. This neural network can be applied to research that analyzes and detects patterns of malicious URL characteristics. In this paper, performance analysis according to various parameters was performed on a method of detecting malicious URLs using neural networks. In this paper, malicious URL detection performance was analyzed while changing the activation function, learning rate, and neural network structure. The experimental data was crawled by Alexa top 1 million and Whois to build the data, and the machine learning library used TensorFlow. As a result of the experiment, when the number of layers is 4, the learning rate is 0.005, and the number of nodes in each layer is 100, the accuracy of 97.8% and the f1 score of 92.94% are obtained.

In this paper, we introduce a speaker overlap system and look at the process of converting the existed system on the specific framework of artificial intelligence. Speaker overlap is when two or more speakers speak at the same time during a conversation, and can lead to performance degradation in the fields of speech recognition or speaker recognition, and a lot of research is being conducted because it can prevent performance degradation. Recently, as application of artificial intelligence is increasing, there is a demand for switching between artificial intelligence frameworks. However, when switching frameworks, performance degradation is observed due to the unique characteristics of each framework, making it difficult to switch frameworks. In this paper, the process of converting the speaker overlap detection system based on the Keras framework to the pytorch-based system is explained and considers components. As a result of the framework switching, the pytorch-based system showed better performance than the existing Keras-based speaker overlap detection system, so it can be said that it is valuable as a fundamental study on systematic framework conversion.

This paper presents the methods that design the Wavelet-based pitch detector for 2,4 kbps Harmonic-CELP Coder, and that achieve the effective waveform interpolation by decision window shape of the transition region, Waveform interpolation coder operates by encoding one pitch-period-sized segment, a prototype segment, of speech for each frame, generate the smooth waveform interpolation between the prototype segments for voiced frame, But, harmonic synthesis of the prototype waveforms between previous frame and current frame occur not only waveform errors but also discontinuity at frame boundary on that case of pitch halving or doubling, In addtion, in transition region since waveform interpolation coder synthesizes the excitation waveform by using overlap-add with triangularity window, therefore, Harmonic-CELP fail to model the instantaneous increasing speech and synthesis waveform linearly increases, First of all, in order to detect the precise pitch period, we use the hybrid 1st pitch detector, and increse the precision by using 2nd ACF-pitch detector, Next, in order to modify excitation window, we detect the onset, offset of frame by GCI, As the result, pitch doubling is removed and pitch error rate is decreased 5.4% in comparison with ACF, and is decreased 2,66% in comparison with wavelet detector, MOS test improve 0.13 at transition region.

An X-ray tube used an X-ray fluorescence analysis system has a low X-ray photon intensity which results in reducing measurement accuracy and increasing exposure time. These shortages can be overcame by using a monocapillary optics. A monocapillary optics was optimally designed for focusing the characteristic X-ray of tungsten (8.4 keV). The monocapillary optics can achieve a gain of 10 at the least. The monocapillary optics was fabricated by using puller and pyrex glass, raw material. In fabrication, a weigh of 45g and a temperature of $650^{\circ}$ was loaded. The total fabrication time was 460 minutes. The fabricated capillary had 87 mm in length and maximum diameter of 300 ${\mu}m$ and minimum diameter of 192 ${\mu}m$. When the fabricated monocapillary optics is applied to an X-ray fluorescence analysis system, the detection accuracy for soft elements, for example sulfur (S), will be improved.

Hearing loss is one of the most common birth defects among infants. Most of hearing-impaired children are not diagnosed until 1 to 3 years of age - which is too late for the critical period (6 month) for normal speech and language development. If a hearing impairment is identified and treated in its early stage, child's speech and language skills could be comparable to his or her normal-hearing peers. For these reasons, hearing screening at birth and throughout childhood is extremely important. ABR (Auditory brain-stem response) is nowadays one of the most reliable diagnostic tools in the early detection of hearing impairment. In this study, we have developed the system that automatically detects if there is hearing impairment or not for infants or children. For future studies, it will be developed as a portable system to be able to take a measurement not only in sound proof room but also in nursery for neonates.

Recently, neural network-based speech recognition has been studied to utilize the adaptivity and learnability of neural network models. However, conventional neural network models have difficulty in the co-articulation processing and the boundary detection of similar phonmes of the Korean speech. Also, in case of using one phonotopic map, learning speed may dramatically increase and inaccuracies may be caused because homogeneous learning and recognition method should be applied for heterogenous data. Hence, in this paper, a neural net typewriter has been designed using a hierarchical self-organizing classifier(HSOC), and related algorithms are presented. This HSOC, during its learing stage, distributed phoneme data on hierarchically structured multiple phonotopic maps, using Kohonen's self-organizing feature maps(SOFM). Presented and experimented in this paper were the algorithms for deciding the number of maps, map sizes, the selection of phonemes and their placement per map, an approapriate learning and preprocessing method per map. If maps are divided according to a priorlinguistic knowledge, we would have difficulty in acquiring linguistic knowledge and how to alpply it(e.g., processing extended phonemes). Contrarily, our HSOC has an advantage that multiple phonotopic maps suitable for given input data are self-organizable. The resulting three korean phonotopic maps are optimally labelled and have their own optimal preprocessing schemes, and also confirm to the conventional linguistic knowledge.
