In this paper efficient algorithms for content-based video retrieval using motion information are proposed, including temporal scale-invariant retrieval and temporal scale-absolute retrieval. In temporal scale-invariant video retrieval, the distance transformation is performed on each trail image in database. Then, from a given que교 trail the pixel values along the query trail are added in each distance image to compute the average distance between the trails of query image and database image, since the intensity of each pixel in distance image represents the distance from that pixel to the nearest edge pixel. For temporal scale-absolute retrieval, a new coding scheme referred to as Motion Retrieval Code is proposed. This code is designed to represent object motions in the human visual sense so that the retrieval performance can be improved. The proposed coding scheme can also achieve a fast matching, since the similarity between two motion vectors can be computed by simple bit operations. The efficiencies of the proposed methods are shown by experimental results.

사용자 프로파일(user profile)은 사용자 개개인의 관심 분야를 기술한 것이다. 정보 시스템이 사용자 개개인의 관심 분야를 알고 있다면, 사용자의 관심 분야에 속하는 문서만을 사용자에게 제시해 줌으로써 정보검색의 효율을 높일 수 있다. 사용자 프로파일 관리 시스템은 시간이 지날수록 개인 사용자의 관심분야를 더욱 잘 나타내어야 하고(Specialization), 사용자의 관심 분야가 변화해도 그에 대응해야 하며(Adaptation), 사용자가 흥미있어할 만한 관련 분야도 제시할 수 있어야 한다(Exploration). 본 논문은 기존에 연구되어 왔던 정보여과 시스템에서 사용되는 사용자 프로파일 관리 시스템들의 단점을 보완하고 정보검색 시스템에서도 사용될 수 있는 범용성을 지닌 사용자 프로파일 관리 시스템을 제안한다. 제안하는 사용자 프로파일 관리 시스템은 사용자의 관심분야의 변화를 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 모델링하고, 여러 유전자군(群)으로 사용자의 다양한 관심분야를 기술한다.

Achieving the beneficiary goal of recent discovery in human genome project still needs a way to retrieve and analyze the exponentially expanding bio-related information. Research on bio-related fields naturally applies knowledge discovered to the current problem and make inferences to extract new information where shared concepts and data containing information need to be defined and used in a coherent way. In such a professional domain, while the need to help users reduce their work and to improve search results has been emerged. methods for systematic retrieval and adequate exchange of relevant information are still in their infancy. The design of our system aims at improving the quality of information retrieval in a professional domain by utilizing both corpus-based and concept-based ontology. Meta-rules of helping users to make an adequate query are formed into an ontology in the domain. The integration of those knowledge permits the system to retrieve relevant information in a more semantic and systematic fashion. This work mainly describes the query models with details of GUI and a secondary query generation of the system.

Color, texture, and shape act as important information for images in human recognition. For content-based image retrieval, many studies have combined color, texture, and shape features to improve the retrieval performance. However, there have not been many powerful methods for combining all color, texture, and shape features. This study proposes a content-based image retrieval method that uses the combined local and global features of color, texture, and shape. The color features are extracted from the color autocorrelogram; the texture features are extracted from the magnitude of a complete local binary pattern and the Gabor local correlation revealing local image characteristics; and the shape features are extracted from singular value decomposition that reflects global image characteristics. In this work, an experiment is performed to compare the proposed method with those that use our partial features and some existing techniques. The results show an average precision that is 19.60% higher than those of existing methods and 9.09% higher than those of recent ones. In conclusion, our proposed method is superior over other methods in terms of retrieval performance.

감성 지능형 컴퓨팅은 컴퓨터가 학습과 적응을 통하여 인간의 감성을 처리할 수 있는 감성인지 능력을 갖는 것으로 보다 효율적인 인간과 컴퓨터의 상호 작용을 가능하게 한다. 감성 정보들 중 시각과 청각 정보인 음악 이미지는 짧은 시간에 형성되고 기억에 오랫동안 지속되기 때문에 성공적인 마케팅에 있어서 중요한 요인으로 꼽히고 있으며, 인간의 정서를 이해하고 해석하는데 있어서 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 논문에서는 사용자의 감성키워드(짜증, 우울, 차분, 기쁨)를 고려하여 매칭된 음악과 이미지를 검색하는 시스템을 구축하였다. 제안된 시스템은 인간의 감성을 4단계 경우로 상황을 정의하며, 정규화 된 음악과 이미지를 검색하기 위해 음악 이미지 온톨로지와 감성 온톨로지를 사용하였으며, 이미지의 특징정보를 추출, 유사성을 측정하여 원하는 결과를 얻게 하도록 하였다. 또한, 이미지 감성인식정보를 분류하기위해 대응일치분석과 요인분석을 통한 성컬러와 감성어휘를 하나의 공간에 매칭하였다. 실험결과 제안된 시스템은 4가지 감성상태에 대해 82.4%의 매칭율를 가져올 수 있었다.

Human action recognition has become an important research topic in computer vision area recently due to many applications in the real world, such as video surveillance, video retrieval, video analysis, and human-computer interaction. The goal of this paper is to evaluate descriptors which have recently been used in action recognition, namely Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) and Histogram of Optical Flow (HOF). This paper also proposes new descriptors to represent the change of points within each part of a human body, caused by actions named as Histogram of Changing Points (HCP) and so-called Average Speed (AS) which measures the average speed of actions. The descriptors are combined to build a strong descriptor to represent human actions by modeling the information about appearance, local motion, and changes on each part of the body, as well as motion speed. The effectiveness of these new descriptors is evaluated in the experiments on KTH and Hollywood datasets.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a robot that moves independently, communicates with a human, and explicitly extracts information from the human mind that is rarely expressed verbally. In a spoken dialog system for information collection, it is desirable to continue communicating with the user as long as possible, but not if the user does not wish to communicate. Therefore, the system should be able to terminate the communication before the user starts to object to using it. In this paper, to enable the construction of a decision model for a system to decide when to stop communicating with a human, we acquired speech and motion data from individuals who were asked many questions by another person. We then analyze their speech and body motion when they do not mind answering the questions, and also when they wish the questioning to cease. From the results, we can identify differences in speech power, length of pauses, speech rate, and body motion.

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.
