In this paper, we describe the one channel five-way, V/U/M/N/S (Voice/Unvoice/Nasal/Silent), classification algorithm for automatically classifying speech. The decision making process is viewed as a pattern viewed as a pattern recognition problem. Two aspects of the algorithm are developed: feature selection and classifier type. The feature selection procedure is studied for identifying a set of features to make V/U/M/N/S classification. The classifiers used are a vector quantization (VQ), a neural network(NN), and a decision tree method. Actual five sentences spoken by six speakers, three male and three female, are tested with proposed classifiers. From a set of measurement tests, the proposed classifiers show fairly good accuracy for V/U/M/N/S decision.

In recent years, falls among elderly people have gained serious attention as a major cause of injuries. Falls often lead to fatal consequences due to lack of prompt response and rescue. Therefore, a more accurate fall detection system and an effective feature extraction technique are required to prevent and reduce the risk of such incidents. In this paper, we proposed an efficient feature extraction technique based on multiple sliding windows and validated it through a series of experiments using supervised learning algorithms. The experiments were conducted using the public datasets obtained from tri-axial accelerometers. The results depicted that extraction of the feature from adjacent sliding windows led to high accuracy in supervised machine learning-based fall detection. Also, the experiments conducted in this study suggested that the best accuracy can be achieved by keeping the window size as small as 2 seconds. With the kNN classifier and dataset from wearable sensors, the experiments achieved accuracy rates of 94%.

Lying is nuisance to all, and all liars knows it is nuisance but still keep on lying. Sometime people are in confusion how to escape from or how to detect the liar when they lie. In this research we are aiming to establish a dynamic platform to identify liar by using video analysis especially by calculating the ratio of changes in their appearance when they lie. The platform will be developed using a machine learning algorithm along with the dynamic classifier to classify the liar. For the experimental analysis the dataset to be processed in two dimensions (people lying and people tell truth). Both parameter of facial appearance will be stored for future identification. Similarly, there will be standard parameter to be built for true speaker and liar. We hope this standard parameter will be able to diagnosed a liar without a pre-captured data.

In this paper, we propose an i-vector based language recognition system to identify the spoken language of the speaker, which uses multiple discriminative deep neural network (DNN) models analogous to the multi-class support vector machine (SVM) classification system. The proposed model was trained and tested using the i-vectors included in the NIST 2015 i-vector Machine Learning Challenge database, and shown to outperform the conventional language recognition methods such as cosine distance, SVM and softmax NN classifier in open-set experiments.

The purpose of this study is to ascertain whether event tracking is more effective in event retrieval than information filtering. This study examined the two techniques for event retrieval to suggest the more effective one. The event-retrieval performances of the event tracking technique based on a kNN classifier and the query-based information filtering technique were compared. Two event tracking experiments, one with the static training set and the other with the dynamic training set , were carried out. Two information filtering experiments, one with initial queries and the other with refined queries, were also carried out to evaluate the event-retrieval effectiveness. We found that the event tracking technique with the static training set performed better than on with the dynamic training set. It was also found that the information fitering technique using intial queries performed better than one using the refined queries. In conclusion, the comparison of the best cases of event tracking and information filtering revealed that the information filtering technique outperformed the event tracking technique in event retrieval.

The emotion plays a critical role in human's daily life including learning, action, decision and communication. In this paper, emotion discrimination classifier is designed to reduce system complexity through reduced selection of dominant features from biosignals. The photoplethysmography(PPG), skin temperature, skin conductance, fontal and parietal electroencephalography(EEG) signals were measured during 4 types of movie watching associated with the induction of neutral, sad, fear joy emotions. The genetic algorithm with support vector machine(SVM) based fitness function was designed to determine dominant features among 24 parameters extracted from measured biosignals. It shows maximum classification accuracy of 96.4%, which is 17% higher than that of SVM alone. The minimum error features selected are the mean and NN50 of heart rate variability from PPG signal, the mean of PPG induced pulse transit time, the mean of skin resistance, and ${\delta}$ and ${\beta}$ frequency band powers of parietal EEG. The combination of parietal EEG, PPG, and skin resistance is recommendable in high accuracy instrumentation, while the combinational use of PPG and skin conductance(79% accuracy) is affordable in simplified instrumentation.

In text categorization, core terms of an input document are hardly selected as classification features if they do not occur in a training document set. Besides, synonymous terms with the same concept are usually treated as different features. This study aims to improve text categorization performance by integrating synonyms into a single feature and by replacing input terms not in the training document set with the most similar term occurring in training documents using Wikipedia. For the selection of classification features, experiments were performed in various settings composed of three different conditions: the use of category information of non-training terms, the part of Wikipedia used for measuring term-term similarity, and the type of similarity measures. The categorization performance of a kNN classifier was improved by 0.35~1.85% in $F_1$ value in all the experimental settings when non-learning terms were replaced by the learning term with the highest similarity above the threshold value. Although the improvement ratio is not as high as expected, several semantic as well as structural devices of Wikipedia could be used for selecting more effective classification features.

BCI technology is to control communication systems or machines by brain signal among biological signals followed by signal processing. For the implementation of BCI systems, it is required that the characteristics of brain signal are learned and analyzed in real-time and the learned characteristics are applied. In this paper, we detect feature vector of EEG signal on left and right hand movements based on incremental approach and dimension reduction using the detected feature vector. In addition, we show that the reduced dimension can improve the classification performance by removing unnecessary features. The processed data including sufficient features of input data can reduce the time of processing and boost performance of classification by removing unwanted features. Our experiments using K-NN classifier show the proposed approach 5% outperforms the PCA based dimension reduction.

In this paper, we propose a novel face recognition(FR) method that takes advantage of combining weighted deep local features extracted from multiple Deep Convolutional Neural Networks(DCNNs) learned with a set of facial local regions. In the proposed method, the so-called weighed deep local features are generated from multiple DCNNs each trained with a particular face local region and the corresponding weight represents the importance of local region in terms of improving FR performance. Our weighted deep local features are applied to Joint Bayesian metric learning in conjunction with Nearest Neighbor(NN) Classifier for the purpose of FR. Systematic and comparative experiments show that our proposed method is robust to variations in pose, illumination, and expression. Also, experimental results demonstrate that our method is feasible for improving face recognition performance.

This paper presents automated prediction of transient ischemic episodes using neural networks(NN) based pattern matching method. The learning algorithm used to train the multilayer networks is a modified backpropagation algorithm. The algorithm updates parameters of nonlinear function in a neuron as well as connecting weights between neurons to improve learning speed. The performance of the method was evaluated using ECG signals of the MIT/BIH long-term database. Experimental results for 15 records(237 ischemic episodes) show that the average sensitivity and specificity of ischemic episode prediction are 85.71% and 71.11%, respectively. It is also found that the proposed method predicts an average of 45.53［sec］ ahead real ischemia. These results indicate that the NN approach as the pattern matching classifier can be a useful tool for the prediction of transient ischemic episodes.
