The objective of this study is to develop the new vehicle classification algorithm and minimize classification errors. The existing vehicle classification algorithm collects data from loop and piezo sensors according to the specification("Vehicle classification guide for traffic volume survey" 2006) given by the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs. The new vehicle classification system collects the vehicle length, distance between axles, axle type, wheel-base and tire type to minimize classification error. The main difference of new system is the "Wandering" sensor which is capable of measuring the wheel-base and tire type(single or dual). The wandering sensor obtains the wheel-base and tire type by detecting both left and right tire imprint. Verification tests were completed with the total traffic volume of 762,420 vehicles in a month for the new vehicle classification algorithm. Among them, 47 vehicles(0.006%) were not classified within 12 vehicle types. This results proves very high level of classification accuracy for the new system. Using the new vehicle classification algorithm will improve the accuracy and it can be broadly applicable to the road planning, design, and management. It can also upgrade the level of traffic research for the road and transportation infrastructure.

Cloud detection and analysis from satellite images has been a topic of research in many atmospheric and environmental studies; however, it still is a challenging task for many reasons. In this paper, we propose a new method for cloud-type classification using fuzzy logic. Knowing that visible-light images of clouds contain thickness related information, while infrared images haves height-related information, we propose a two-layered fuzzy logic based on the input source to provide us with a relatively clear-cut threshold in classification. Traditional noise-removal methods that use reflection/release characteristics of infrared images often produce false positive cloud areas, such as fog thereby it negatively affecting the classification accuracy. In this study, we used the color information from source images to extract the region of interest while avoiding false positives. The structure of fuzzy inference was also changed, because we utilized three types of source images: visible-light, infrared, and near-infrared images. When a cloud appears in both the visible-light image and the infrared image, the fuzzy membership function has a different form. Therefore we designed two sets of fuzzy inference rules and related classification rules. In our experiment, the proposed method was verified to be efficient and more accurate than the previous fuzzy logic attempt that used infrared image features.

Recently, it is demanded to study about landscape. Landscape is an environment factor for improving life, a social resource for establishing image and identity of the area and also a tourist resource for earning profit. With this importance, landscape planning is being performed by local governments. However, classification for a rule about landscape planning is not prepared yet. For this purpose, classification of landscape is definitely required. Therefore, this article focuses on presenting method of classification Natural and Rural Landscape. We used Arcview 3.2 to draw watershed of the site, and calculated the percent of landform. We also took a picture which explain the landscape and made a survey of classifying the landscape. Due to this study, we were able to frame an algorithm of the landscape classification. This will contribute to classify the landscape type. This study needs more specific researches because it was supposed to target the entire Gyeonggi-Do however it only covered several regions. Through this results, it would be expected to develop the map of landscape character.

Classification and analysis are improved factors for the realtime automation system. In the field of agriculture, the cultivation of different paddy crop depends on the atmosphere and the soil nature. We need to analyze the moisture level in the area to predict the type of paddy that can be cultivated. For this process, Ensemble Modulation Pattern system and Block Probability Neural Network based classification models are used to analyze the moisture and temperature of land area. The dataset consists of the collections of moisture and temperature at various data samples for a land. The Ensemble Modulation Pattern based feature analysis method, the extract of the moisture and temperature in various day patterns are analyzed and framed as the pattern for given dataset. Then from that, an improved neural network architecture based on the block probability analysis are used to classify the data pattern to predict the class of paddy crop according to the features of dataset. From that classification result, the measurement of data represents the type of paddy according to the weather condition and other features. This type of classification model assists where to plant the crop and also prevents the damage to crop due to the excess of water or excess of temperature. The result analysis presents the comparison result of proposed work with the other state-of-art methods of data classification.

Hyperspectral remote sensing data contain plenty of information about objects, which makes object classification more precise. Over the past several years, different algorithms for the classification of hyperspectral remote sensing images have been developed. In this study, we proposed method based on absorption band extraction and Gravity type model to solve hyperspectral image classification problem. In contrast to conventional methods that are based on correlation techniques, this method is simple and more effective. The proposed approach was tested to evaluate its effectiveness. The evaluation was done by comparing the results of preexiting SFF(Spectral Feature Fitting) classification method. The evaluation results showed the proposed approach has a good potential in the classification of hyperspectral images.

Anthropometric data is a fundamental resource in developing ergonomic products and workplaces. However, designers often experience difficulty in searching anthropometric data relevant to the design due to the technicality of anthropometric terminologies, ambiguity in the description of measurement method for some anthropometric variables, and inefficiency of existing search methods for anthropometric data. The present study suggests a method to develop a classification system of anthropometric variables for systematic, efficient search of anthropometric data. The proposed method first classifies anthropometric variables according to body segment and type of variable, and then arranges anthropometric variables of the same body segment and variable type by comparing the heights of their reference points. The proposed classification method was applied to establish a classification system of 66 anthropometric variables that were selected for an automotive interior design. Then the established anthropometric classification system was utilized to design a search interface of a web-based anthropometric data retrieval system.

Psychosomatic disorders are defined as disorders characterized by physiological changes that originate partially from emotional factors. This article aims to discuss the psychosomatic disorders of the oral cavity with a revised working type classification. The author has added one more subset to the existing classification, i.e., disorders caused by altered perception of dentofacial form and function, which include body dysmorphic disorder. The author has also inserted delusional halitosis under the miscellaneous disorders classification of psychosomatic disorders and revised the already existing classification proposed for the psychosomatic disorders pertaining to dental practice. After the inclusion of the subset (disorders caused by altered perception of dentofacial form and function), the terminology "psychosomatic disorders of the oral cavity" is modified to "psychosomatic disorders pertaining to dental practice".

In this paper we applied pattern recognition approach to detect audio forgery. Classification of the microphone types and models can help determining the authenticity of the recordings. Canonical correlation analysis was applied to extract feature for microphone classification. We utilized the linear dependence between two near-silence regions. To utilize the advantage of multi-feature based canonical correlation analysis, we selected three commonly used features to capture the temporal and spectral characteristics. Using three different microphones, we tested the usefulness of multi-feature based characteristics of canonical correlation analysis and compared the results with single feature based method. The performance of classification rate was carried out using the backpropagation neural network. Experimental results show the promise of canonical correlation features for microphone classification.

For question answering system that extracts an answer and output to user‘s natural language question, a process of question type classification from user’s natural language query is very important. This paper proposes a question and answer type classifier using the interrogatives and word semantic categories instead of complicated classifying rules and huge dictionaries. Synonyms and postfix information are also used for question type classification. Experiments show that the semantic categories are helpful for question type classifying without interrogatives.

The purpose of this study is to build fundamental data for the classification of landscape type as a base for landscape planning and management practices. To do this, prior dissertations and landscape plan reports were analyzed, which presented the classification criteria for landscape type. Based on this, classification criteria for landscape type which could be usable in zoning ordinances has been suggested. The result is as follows: Firstly, in landscape analysis and assessment study based on ecological and formal aesthetic models, landscape type is classified by the character of the landscape element. Secondly, there is no logical classification of landscapetype in urban landscape planning according to mixed use of landscape type for analysis and planning. It is therefore difficult to identify the object of landscape planning, which is intimately linked with the shortage of concrete practice for landscape management. In connection with this issue, classification criteria for landscape type are suggested based on utility in landscape planning. This could be divided into internal criteria and external criteria. The former are land-use, topographical characteristics, characteristics of the view object, and landscape elements while the latter are viewpoint, distance to view object, and urban form. Applying the landscape type classified by the criteria suggested in this paper, it is possible to manage an entire urban area. In addition, landscape type could be reference data for operating a zoning system.
