In the edge of new jumping up in global market, our construction industry is required to develop a competitive power and new construction market. As a considerable global player, our construction industry and information technology industry are regarded as to achieve more competitiveness and new market by developing fusion technology between information and construction technology. But, practically not only the technologic barrier but unripe developing model, it is time to visualize fusion strategic model and possible area as a constructional point of view. The aim of fusion technology is to increase productivity by reducing labor power and over all life cycle cost and to suggest new market with effective demanding power such as ubiquitous-city. As a successful development model, both the demand driven approach dealing with prompt IT developing speed and a circular leading model boosted by leading group will be key factors.

In recent years, advancements in machine learning capabilities have allowed it to see widespread adoption for tasks such as object detection, image classification, and anomaly detection. However, despite their promise, a limitation lies in the fact that a network's performance quality is based on the data which it receives. A well-trained network will still have poor performance if the subsequent data supplied to it contains artifacts, out of focus regions, or other visual distortions. Under normal circumstances, images of the same scene captured from differing points of focus, angles, or modalities must be separately analysed by the network, despite possibly containing overlapping information such as in the case of images of the same scene captured from different angles, or irrelevant information such as images captured from infrared sensors which can capture thermal information well but not topographical details. This factor can potentially add significantly to the computational time and resources required to utilize the network without providing any additional benefit. In this study, we plan to explore using image fusion techniques to assemble multiple images of the same scene into a single image that retains the most salient key features of the individual source images while discarding overlapping or irrelevant data that does not provide any benefit to the network. Utilizing this image fusion step before inputting a dataset into the network, the number of images would be significantly reduced with the potential to improve the classification performance accuracy by enhancing images while discarding irrelevant and overlapping regions.

Fuzzy systems, neural networks and genetic algorithms have different origins and thus have differently developed their own unique characteristics. These characteristics can be used as a good complement to the others. Therefore, many researches have been devoted to not only these techniques but also fusion of them. This paper briefly summarizes these three techniques and surveys the researches on fusion of them.

Variety of smart devices including smart phone have become and essential item in user's daily life. This means that smart devices are good mediators to get collecting user's behavior by sensors mounted on the devices. The information from smart devices is important clues to identify by analyzing the user's preferences and needs. Through this, the intelligent service which is fitted to the user is possible. This paper propose a smart service recommendation model based on user scenario using fusion context-awareness. The information for recommendation services is collected to make the scenario depending on time, location, action based on the Fusion process. The scenarios can help predict a user's situation and provide the services in advance. Also, content categories as well as the content types are determined depending on the scenario. The scenario is a method for providing the best service as well as a basis for the user's situation. Using this method, proposing a smart service model with the fusion context-awareness based on the hybrid sensing is the goal of this paper.

This paper propose a fuzzy inference model for obstacle avoidance for a mobile robot with an active camera, which is intelligently searching the goal location in unknown environments using command fusion, based on situational command using an vision sensor. Instead of using "physical sensor fusion" method which generates the trajectory of a robot based upon the environment model and sensory data. In this paper, "command fusion" method is used to govern the robot motions. The navigation strategy is based on the combination of fuzzy rules tuned for both goal-approach and obstacle-avoidance. We describe experimental results obtained with the proposed method that demonstrate successful navigation using real vision data.

This paper proposes an image segmentation algorithm based on fusion of range and intensity images. Based on Bayesian theory, a priori knowledge is encoded by the Markov random field (MRF). A maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimator is constructed using the features extracted from range and intensity images. Objects are approximated by local planar surfaces in range images, and the parametric space is constructed with the surface parameters estimated pixelwise. In intensity images the ${\alpha}$-trimmed variance constructs the intensity feature. An image is segmented by optimizing the MAP estimator that is constructed using a likelihood function based on edge information. Computer simulation results shw that the proposed fusion algorithm effectively segments the images independentl of shadow, noise, and light-blurring.

Fusing the scores of multibiometrics is a very promising approach to improve the overall system's accuracy and the verification performance. In recent years, there are several approaches towards studying score level fusion of several biometric systems. However, most of them does not consider the genuine and imposter score distributions and result in a higher equal error rate usually. In this paper, a novel score level fusion approach of different biometric systems (dual iris, thermal and visible face traits) based on $Acz{\acute{e}}l$-Alsina triangular norm is proposed. It achieves higher identification performance as well as acquires a closer genuine distance and larger imposter distance. The experimental tests are conducted on a virtual multibiometrics database, which merges the challenging CASIA-Iris-Thousand database with noisy samples and the NVIE face database with visible and thermal face images. The rigorous results suggest that significant performance improvement can be achieved after the implementation of multibiometrics. The comparative experiments also ascertain that the proposed fusion approach outperforms the state-of-art verification performance.

This paper presents a Bluetooth and pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR)-based indoor fusion localization approach (BtPDR) using smartphones. A Bluetooth and PDR-based indoor fusion localization approach can localize the initial position of a smartphone with the received signal strength (RSS) of Bluetooth. While a smartphone is moving, BtPDR can track its position by fusing the localization results of PDR and Bluetooth RSS. In addition, BtPDR can adaptively modify the parameters of PDR. The contributions of BtPDR include: a Bluetooth RSS-based Probabilistic Voting (BRPV) localization mechanism, a probabilistic voting-based Bluetooth RSS and PDR fusion method, and a heuristic search approach for reducing the complexity of BRPV. The experiment results in a real scene show that the average positioning error is < 2m, which is considered adequate for indoor location-based service applications. Moreover, compared to the traditional PDR method, BtPDR improves the location accuracy by 42.6%, on average. Compared to state-of-the-art Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) fingerprint + PDR-based fusion indoor localization approaches, BtPDR has better positioning accuracy and does not need the same offline workload as a fingerprint algorithm.

최근 스마트폰이나 태블릿 PC 등의 모바일 디바이스가 상용화 되어감에 따라 그 안에서 핵심적인 처리기능을 담당하는 프로세서의 코어 수가 점차적으로 늘어나고 있다. 많은 수의 코어를 효율적으로 사용하기 위해 여러 가지 메커니즘이 구현되어 있으나, 단일 프로세스를 순차적으로 실행하는 경우 여전히 성능에서의 한계가 존재한다. 병렬화 되어 있지 않은 프로세스의 경우, Amdahl's Law[1]에 따르면 순차적으로 실행을 할 수 밖에 없는 부분이 존재하고, 이 부분은 하나의 코어에서만 실행되기 때문에 많은 연산 자원들이 낭비되는 현상이 발생한다. 본 논문은 다중 코어 환경에서 이러한 잉여자원을 효과적으로 사용하기 위해 Back-end Fusion 이라는 구조를 제안하여 프로세서의 성능 향상을 위한 연구를 진행하였다. Back-end Fusion 이란, 연산 처리를 담당하는 back-end 부분(execution unit, writeback 단계 등)을 필요에 따라 코어 간에 동적으로 재구성하여 성능을 향상시키는 메커니즘이다. 이 재구성된 프로세서의 back-end 를 효율적으로 사용하기 위해, 종속성과 로드 밸런스 등을 고려한 인스트럭션 분배 알고리즘을 함께 제안한다. Intel 사의 x86 Instruction Set Architecture(ISA)를 기반으로 한 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 Back-end Fusion 프로세서의 성능을 측정 해 본 결과 기존의 단일 코어 프로세서에 비해 평균 32.2%의 성능 향상을 확인할 수 있었다.

Various products are displayed and traded in superstores. Therefore, providing the information of these diverse products plays a crucial part in acknowledging their presence. Currently, superstores mostly utilize printed materials to provide product information and promotion of displayed products. A display equipment is utilized for providing product information and promotion of certain high-end and new products. As such, utilizing an expensive display equipment in order to provide product information fragmentarily for 1 product or successively can be referred to as being inefficient. This paper aims at proposing a method that enables the description of product information efficiently by utilizing a display specific for store support in order to overcome the restriction mentioned above. A test was executed in order to verify the potential of the method of providing product information though the proposed display.
