  • An online mean-shift object tracking algorithm, which consists of a learning stage and an estimation stage, is proposed in this work. The learning stage selects the features for tracking, and the estimation stage composes a likelihood image and applies the mean shift algorithm to it to track an object. The tracking performance depends on the quality of the likelihood image. We propose two schemes to generate and integrate likelihood images: one based on the discrete AdaBoost (DAB) and the other based on the real AdaBoost (RAB). The DAB scheme uses tuned feature values, whereas RAB estimates class probabilities, to select the features and generate the likelihood images. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm provides more accurate and reliable tracking results than the conventional mean shift tracking algorithms.

  • Recognition and Tracking of interesting object is the significant field in Computer Vision. Mean-Shift algorithm have chronic problems that some errors are occurred when histogram of tracking area is similar to another area. in this paper, we propose to solve the problem. Each algorithm blocks skin color filtering, face detect and Mean-Shift started consecutive order assists better operation of the next algorithm. Avoid to operations of the overhead of tracking area similar to a histogram distribution areas overlap only consider the number of white pixels by running the Viola-Jones algorithm, simple arithmetic increases the convergence of the Mean-Shift. The experimental results, it comes to 78% or more of white pixels in the Mean-Shift search area, only if the recognition of the face area when it is configured to perform a Viola-Jones algorithm is tracking the object, was 100 percent successful.

  • Adaptive echo canceller(AEC) has become an important component in speech communication systems, including mobile phones and speech recognition. In these applications, the acoustic echo path has a long impulse response. We propose a moving-averge least mean square(MVLMS) algorithm with a detection method for acoustic echo cancellation. Using, the result of the tests that used colored input models clearly shows that the MVLMS detection algorithm has convergence performance superior to the least mean square(LMS) detection algorithm alone. Although the computational complexity of the new MVLMS algorithm is only slightly greater than that of the standard LMS detection algorithm, the new algorithm confers a significant improvement in stability.

  • The K-means clustering algorithm has had successful application in sufficient dimension reduction. Unfortunately, the algorithm does have reproducibility and nestness, which will be discussed in this paper. These are clear deficits for the K-means clustering algorithm; however, the hierarchical clustering algorithm has both reproducibility and nestness, but intensive comparison between K-means and hierarchical clustering algorithm has not yet been done in a sufficient dimension reduction context. In this paper, we rigorously study the two clustering algorithms for two popular sufficient dimension reduction methodology of inverse mean and clustering mean methods throughout intensive numerical studies. Simulation studies and two real data examples confirm that the use of hierarchical clustering algorithm has a potential advantage over the K-means algorithm.

  • In the paper, we propose a new CSS(Complex Signed-Signed) CMA(Constant Modulus Algorithm) algorithm for ICS(Interference Cancellation System). When the repeater get the feedback signal, the CSS CMA algorithm is proposed at the ICS repeater using DSP(Digital Signal Processing) for the removal of interfering signals from the feedback paths. The proposed CSS CMA algorithm improved performances and hardware complexity by adjusting step size values. the steady state MSE(Mean Square Error) performance of the proposed CSS CMA algorithm with step size of 0.00043 is about 4dB better than the conventional CMA algorithm. And the proposed Complex Signed Signed CMA algorithm requires 1950 ~ 2150 less iterations than the LMS(Least Mean Square) and Signed LMS(Normalized Least Mean Square) algorithms at MSE of -25dB.

  • This paper proposes a new algorithm that improve color component of compensated image using Retinex method for back-light image. A back-light image has two regions, one of the region is too bright and the other one is too dark. If an back-light image is improved contrast using Retinex method, it loses color information in the part of brightness of the image. In order to make up loss information, proposed algorithm adds color components from original image. The histogram can be divided three parts that brightness, darkness, midway using K-mean (k=3) algorithm. For the brightness, it is used color information of the original image. For the darkness, it is converted using by Retinex method. The midway region is mixed between original image and Retinex result image in the ratio of histogram. The ratio is determined by distance from dark area. The proposed algorithm was tested on nature back-light images to evaluate performance, and the experimental result shows that proposed algorithm is more robust than original Retinex algorithm.

  • 영상에서의 경계선 추출은 원 영상의 노이즈에 의해 크게 영향을 받는다. 따라서 먼저 그 노이즈들을 제거할만한 어떤 방법들이 필요하다. Mean Shift 알고리즘은 이러한 목적에 부합되는 유연한 함수로서, 별로 중요하지 않은 정보와 민감한 노이즈 부분을 점점 제거하는데 알맞다. 여기서는 Canny 알고리즘을 사용하여 중점으로 하는 영상에서의 윤곽선을 찾아낸다. 그리고 테스트 하고 이전의 유일한 Canny 알고리즘 보다 결과가 좋음을 알아낸다.

  • This paper presents a new data classification method using the Robbins Monro stochastic approximation algorithm k-nearest neighbor and distribution analysis. To cluster the data set, we decide the centroid of the test data set using k-nearest neighbor algorithm and the local area of data set. To decide each class of the data, the Robbins Monro stochastic approximation algorithm is applied to the decided local area of the data set. To evaluate the performance, the proposed classification method is compared to the conventional fuzzy c-mean method and k-nn algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed method is more accurate than fuzzy c-mean method, k-nn algorithm and discriminant analysis algorithm.

  • The least-mean fourth (LMF) algorithm is well known for its fast convergence and low steady-state error especially in non-Gaussian noise environments. Recently, there has been increasing interest in the least mean square (LMS) algorithms with variable step size. It is because the variable step-size LMS algorithms have shown to outperform the conventional fixed step-size LMS in the various situations. In this paper, a variable step-size LMF algorithm is proposed, which adopts an algebraic optimal step size as a variable step size. It is expected that the proposed algorithm also outperforms the conventional fixed step-size LMF. The superiority of the proposed algorithm is confirmed by the simulations in the time invariant and time variant channels.

  • The composite stock cutting problem is defined as allocating rectangular and irregular patterns onto a large composite stock sheet of finite dimensions in such a way that the resulting scrap will be minimized. In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to hybrid optimization algorithm called MGA in MPI (Message Passing Interface) environments. The proposed MGA combines the benefit of rapid convergence property of Mean Field Annealing and the effective genetic operations. This paper also proposes the efficient data structures for pattern related information.
