In this Paper, a beat recognition method from a sequence of images of conducting person was proposed. Hand position was detected using color discrimination, and symbolized by quantization. Then a motion of the conductor was represented as a sequence of symbols. HMM (Hidden Markov Model), which is excellent for recognition of sequence pattern with some level of variation, was used to recognize the sequence of symbols to be a motion for a beat.

최근 동작 및 행동 인식에 대한 연구가 활발하다. 특히, 센서가 소형화되고 저렴해지면서 그 활용을 위한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 기존의 많은 행동 인식 연구에서 사용되어 온 정적 분류 기술 기반 동작 인식 방법은 연속적인 데이터 분류 기술에 비해 유연성 및 활용성이 부족할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 연속적인 데이터의 패턴 분류 및 인식에 효과적인 확률적 추론 기법인 은닉 마르코프 모델(Hidden Markov Model)과 사전 지식 없이도 자동 학습이 가능하며 의미 깊은 궤적 패턴을 클러스터링하고 효과적인 양자화가 가능한 자기구성지도(Self Organizing Map)를 이용한 동작 인식 기술을 소개한다. 또한, 그 유용성을 입증하기 위해 실제 가속도 센서를 이용하여 다양한 동작에 대한 데이터를 수집하고 분류 성능을 분석 및 평가한다. 실험에서는 실제 가속도 센서를 통해 수집된 숫자를 그리는 동작의 성능 평가 결과를 보이고, 행동 인식기 별 성능과 전체 인식기별 성능을 비교한다.

Facial expression recognition is an intensive research area for designing Human Computer Interfaces. In this work, we present a new facial expression recognition system utilizing Enhanced Independent Component Analysis (EICA) for feature extraction and discrete Hidden Markov Model (HMM) for recognition. Our proposed approach for the first time deals with sequential images of emotion-specific facial data analyzed with EICA and recognized with HMM. Performance of our proposed system has been compared to the conventional approaches where Principal and Independent Component Analysis are utilized for feature extraction. Our preliminary results show that our proposed algorithm produces improved recognition rates in comparison to previous works.

Facial expression recognition systems using video devices have emerged as an important component of natural human-machine interfaces which contribute to various practical applications such as security systems, behavioral science and clinical practices. In this work, we present a new method to analyze, represent and recognize human facial expressions using a sequence of facial images. Under our proposed facial expression recognition framework, the overall procedure includes: accurate face detection to remove background and noise effects from the raw image sequences and align each image using vertex mask generation. Furthermore, these features are reduced by principal component analysis. Finally, these augmented features are trained and tested using Hidden Markov Model (HMM). The experimental evaluation demonstrated the proposed approach over two public datasets such as Cohn-Kanade and AT&T datasets of facial expression videos that achieved expression recognition results as 96.75% and 96.92%. Besides, the recognition results show the superiority of the proposed approach over the state of the art methods.

This study is a middle report on the development of intelligent spot welding monitoring technology applicable to the production line. An intelligent algorithm has been developed to predict the quality of welding in real time. We examined whether it is effective or not through the In-Line and the Off-Line tests. The purpose of the present study is to provide a reliable solution which can prevent welding defects in production site. In this study, the process variables, which were monitored in the primary circuit of the welding, are used to estimate the weld quality by Hidden Markov Model(HMM). The primary dynamic resistance patterns are recognized and the quality is estimated in probability method during the welding. We expect that the algorithm proposed in the present study is feasible to the applied in the production sites for the purpose of in-process real time quality monitoring of spot welding.

In recent years, a pattern recognition method has been widely used by researchers for fault diagnoses of mechanical systems. A pattern recognition method determines the soundness of a mechanical system by detecting variations in the system's vibration characteristics. Hidden Markov model has recently been used as pattern recognition methods in various fields. In this study, a HMM method for the fault diagnosis of a mechanical system is introduced, and a rotating machine with mass unbalance is selected for fault diagnosis. Moreover, a diagnosis procedure to identity the size of a defect is proposed in this study.

본 연구에서는 금강유역의 가뭄과 한반도 주변 지역의 기후 인자들과의 상관관계를 파악하고 이를 바탕으로 기후변화 시나리오를 이용하여 미래의 가뭄을 예측하였다. 1974 - 2015년 동안 11 - 5월에 발생한 강우 자료와 NOAA에서 제공하는 NCEP-NCAR 자료를 이용하여 한반도 주변 기후인자와 금강유역의 강우가 과거 발생한 가뭄과 어떠한 상관관계를 갖는지를 분석하였다. 금강유역의 강우 패턴을 4개의 스테이지로 구분한 후 이를 상태층으로 참고하였으며, 관측 자료는 학습단계에 활용하였다. 이러한 기후인자와 강우 관계의 학습 결과를 바탕으로 기후변화 시나리오를 적용하고 미래의 기후요소를 예측하였으며 이를 통해 미래 금강유역의 가뭄을 예측하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 금강권역 수자원 공급 계획 및 설계의 기초자료로 제공될 수 있으며, 가뭄 대비 대책 사업의 우선순위 결정에 대한 근거 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In most of the character recognition systems, the method of template matching or statistical method using hidden Markov model is used to extract and recognize feature shapes. In this paper, we used modified chain-code which has 8-directions but 4-codes, and made the chain-code of hand-written character, after that, converted it into transition chain-code by applying to HMM(Hidden Markov Model). The transition chain code by HMM is analyzed as signal flow graph by Mason's theory which is generally used to calculate forward gain at automatic control system. If the specific forward gain and feedback gain is properly set, the forward gain of transition chain-code using Mason's theory can be distinguished depending on each object for recognition. This data of the gain is reorganized as tree structure, hence making it possible to distinguish different hand-written characters. With this method, $91\%$ recognition rate was acquired.

In this paper, two new approaches to align English-Arabic sentences in bilingual parallel corpora based on the Multi-Class Support Vector Machine (MSVM) and the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) classifiers are presented. A feature vector is extracted from the text pair that is under consideration. This vector contains text features such as length, punctuation score, and cognate score values. A set of manually prepared training data was assigned to train the Multi-Class Support Vector Machine and Hidden Markov Model. Another set of data was used for testing. The results of the MSVM and HMM outperform the results of the length based approach. Moreover these new approaches are valid for any language pairs and are quite flexible since the feature vector may contain less, more, or different features, such as a lexical matching feature and Hanzi characters in Japanese-Chinese texts, than the ones used in the current research.
