This study is proposed the novel gesture recognition method for the remote camera robot control. To recognize the dynamics gesture, the preprocessing step is the image segmentation. The conventional methods for the effectively object segmentation has need a lot of the cole. information about the object(hand) image. And these methods in the recognition step have need a lot of the features with the each object. To improve the problems of the conventional methods, this study proposed the novel method to recognize the dynamic hand gesture such as the MMS(Max-Min Search) method to segment the object image, MSM(Mean Space Mapping) method and COG(Conte. Of Gravity) method to extract the features of image, and the structure of recognition MLPNN(Multi Layer Perceptron Neural Network) to recognize the dynamic gestures. In the results of experiment, the recognition rate of the proposed method appeared more than 90[%], and this result is shown that is available by HCI(Human Computer Interface) device for .emote robot control.

All the imputation techniques proposed so far in literature for data imputation are offline techniques as they require a number of iterations to learn the characteristics of data during training and they also consume a lot of computational time. Hence, these techniques are not suitable for applications that require the imputation to be performed on demand and near real-time. The paper proposes a computational intelligence based architecture for online data imputation and extended versions of an existing offline data imputation method as well. The proposed online imputation technique has 2 stages. In stage 1, Evolving Clustering Method (ECM) is used to replace the missing values with cluster centers, as part of the local learning strategy. Stage 2 refines the resultant approximate values using a General Regression Neural Network (GRNN) as part of the global approximation strategy. We also propose extended versions of an existing offline imputation technique. The offline imputation techniques employ K-Means or K-Medoids and Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP)or GRNN in Stage-1and Stage-2respectively. Several experiments were conducted on 8benchmark datasets and 4 bank related datasets to assess the effectiveness of the proposed online and offline imputation techniques. In terms of Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE), the results indicate that the difference between the proposed best offline imputation method viz., K-Medoids+GRNN and the proposed online imputation method viz., ECM+GRNN is statistically insignificant at a 1% level of significance. Consequently, the proposed online technique, being less expensive and faster, can be employed for imputation instead of the existing and proposed offline imputation techniques. This is the significant outcome of the study. Furthermore, GRNN in stage-2 uniformly reduced MAPE values in both offline and online imputation methods on all datasets.

This research proposes a system for speaker independent Korean continuous speech recognition with 247 DDD area names using keyword spotting technique. The applied recognition algorithm is the Dynamic Programming Neural Network(DPNN) based on the integration of DP and multi-layer perceptron as model that solves time axis distortion and spectral pattern variation in the speech. To improve performance, we classify word model into keyword model and non-keyword model. We make an experiment on postprocessing procedure for the evaluation of system performance. Experiment results are as follows. The recognition rate of the isolated word is 93.45% in speaker dependent case. The recognition rate of the isolated word is 84.05% in speaker independent case. The recognition rate of simple dialogic sentence in keyword spotting experiment is 77.34% as speaker dependent, and 70.63% as speaker independent.

The purpose of this study is to empirically examine the factors affecting the binge-watching behaviors of OTT service users by using a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) artificial neural network. All samples (n=1,000) were collected from 'A survey on user awareness in OTT service' published by a Media Research Center of the Korea Press Foundation in 2018. Our research model includes one dependent variable which is binge-watching behaviors on OTT service and five independent variables such as gender, age, frequency of service usage, users' satisfaction with content recommendation algorithm, and content types mainly consumed. Our findings demonstrate that age, frequency of service usage, users' satisfaction with content recommendation algorithms, and certain types of contents (e.g., Korean dramas, Korean films, and foreign dramas) were found to be highly related to binge-watching behavior on OTT services.

In genomic studies, thousands of features are collected on relatively few samples. One of the goals of these studies is to build classifiers to predict the outcome of future observations. There are three inherent steps to build classifiers: a significant gene selection, model selection and prediction assessment. In the paper, with a focus on prediction assessment, we normalize microarray data with quantile-normalization methods that adjust quartile of all slide equally and then design a system comparing several methods to estimate 'true' prediction error of a prediction model in the presence of feature selection and compare and analyze a prediction error of them. LOOCV generally performs very well with small MSE and bias, the split sample method and 2-fold CV perform with small sample size very pooly. For computationally burdensome analyses, 10-fold CV may be preferable to LOOCV.

Recommendation is to offer information which fits user's interests and tastes to provide better services and to reduce information overload. It recently draws attention upon Internet users and information providers. The collaborative filtering is one of the widely used methods for recommendation. It recommends an item to a user based on the reference users' preferences for the target item or the target user's preferences for the reference items. In this paper, we propose a neural network based collaborative filtering method. Our method builds a model by learning correlation between users or items using a multi-layer perceptron. We also investigate integration of diverse information to solve the sparsity problem and selecting the reference users or items based on similarity to improve performance. We finally demonstrate that our method outperforms the existing methods through experiments using the EachMovie data.

In this thesis, the color information is used to extract the traffic sign territory, and for recognizing the extracted image, it proposes the traffic sign recognition system that applies the error back propagation algorithm. The proposed method analyzes the color of traffic sign to extract and recognize the possible territory of traffic sign. The method of extracting the possible territory is to use the characteristics of YUV, YIQ, and CMYK color space from the RGB color space. Morphology uses the geometric characteristics of traffic sign to make the image segmentation. The recognition of traffic signs can be recognized by using the error back propagation algorithm. As a result of the experiment, the proposed system has proven its outstanding capability in extraction and recognition of candidate territory without the influence of differences in lighting and input image in various sizes.

The main focus of this paper is the recognition of printed Hangul documents in terms of typeface, character size and character slope for IICS(Intelligent Image Communication System). The fixed-size blocks extracted from documents are analyzed in frequency domain for the typeface classification. The vertical pixel counts and projection profile of bounding box are used for the character size classification and the character slope classification, respectively. The MLP with variable hidden nodes and error back-propagation algorithm is used as typeface classifier, and Mahalanobis distance is used to classify the character size and slope. The experimental results demonstrated the usefulness of proposed system with the mean rate of 95.19% in typeface classification. 97.34% in character size classification, and 89.09% in character slope classification.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to overcome limitations of conventional studies that to predict Baltic Dry Index (BDI). The study proposed applications of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) named Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to predict BDI. Methods: The BDI time-series prediction was carried out through eight variables related to the dry bulk market. The prediction was conducted in two steps. First, identifying the goodness of fitness for the BDI time-series of specific ANN models and determining the network structures to be used in the next step. While using ANN's generalization capability, the structures determined in the previous steps were used in the empirical prediction step, and the sliding-window method was applied to make a daily (one-day ahead) prediction. Results: At the empirical prediction step, it was possible to predict variable y(BDI time series) at point of time t by 8 variables (related to the dry bulk market) of x at point of time (t-1). LSTM, known to be good at learning over a long period of time, showed the best performance with higher predictive accuracy compared to Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). Conclusion: Applying this study to real business would require long-term predictions by applying more detailed forecasting techniques. I hope that the research can provide a point of reference in the dry bulk market, and furthermore in the decision-making and investment in the future of the shipping business as a whole.
