In this paper, we propose a fast and practical head pose estimation scheme fur eye-head controlled human computer interface with non-constrained background. The method we propose uses complete graph matching from thresholded images and the two blocks showing the greatest similarity are selected as eyes, we also locate mouth and nostrils in turn using the eye location information and size information. The average computing time of the image(360*240) is within 0.2(sec) and we employ template matching method using angles between facial features for head pose estimation. It has been tested on several sequential facial images with different illuminating conditions and varied head poses, It returned quite a satisfactory performance in both speed and accuracy.

Recently, smart factories have attracted much attention as a result of the 4th Industrial Revolution. Existing factory automation technologies are generally designed for simple repetition without using vision sensors. Even small object assemblies are still dependent on manual work. To satisfy the needs for replacing the existing system with new technology such as bin picking and visual servoing, precision and real-time application should be core. Therefore in our work we focused on the core elements by using deep learning algorithm to detect and classify the target object for real-time and analyzing the object features. We chose YOLO CNN which is capable of real-time working and combining the two tasks as mentioned above though there are lots of good deep learning algorithms such as Mask R-CNN and Fast R-CNN. Then through the line and inside features extracted from target object, we can obtain final outline and estimate object posture.

There have been recently an increasing number of people working out at home. However, many of them do not have face-to-face guidance from experts, so they cannot effectively correct their wrong pose. This may lead to strain and injury to those doing home training. To tackle this problem, this paper proposes a video data-based pose classification and correction system for home training. The proposed system classifies poses using the multi-layer perceptron and pose estimation model, and corrects poses based on joint angels estimated. A voting algorithm that considers the results of successive frames is applied to improve the performance of the pose classification model. Multi-layer perceptron model for post classification shows the highest accuracy with 0.9. In addition, it is shown that the proposed voting algorithm improves the accuracy to 0.93.

Monte Carlo localization is known to be one of the most reliable methods for pose estimation of a mobile robot. Much research has been done to improve performance of MCL so far. Although MCL is capable of estimating the robot pose even for a completely unknown initial pose in the known environment, it takes considerable time to give an initial estimate because the number of random samples is usually very large especially for a large-scale environment. For practical implementation of the MCL, therefore, a reduction in sample size is desirable. This paper presents a novel approach to reducing the number of samples used in the particle filter for efficient implementation of MCL. To this end, the topological information generated off- line using a thinning method, which is commonly used in image processing, is employed. The topological map is first created from the given grid map for the environment. The robot scans the local environment using a laser rangefinder and generates a local topological map. The robot then navigates only on this local topological edge, which is likely to be the same as the one obtained off- line from the given grid map. Random samples are drawn near the off-line topological edge instead of being taken with uniform distribution, since the robot traverses along the edge. In this way, the sample size required for MCL can be drastically reduced, thus leading to reduced initial operation time. Experimental results using the proposed method show that the number of samples can be reduced considerably, and the time required for robot pose estimation can also be substantially decreased.

Frequent false positives alarm from the Intelligent Selective Control System have raised significant concerns. These persistent issues have led to declines in operational efficiency and market credibility among agents. Developing a new model or replacing the existing one to mitigate false positives alarm entails substantial opportunity costs; hence, improving the quality of the training dataset is pragmatic. However, smaller organizations face challenges with inadequate capabilities in dataset collection and refinement. This paper proposes an automatic human pose data collection system centered around a human pose estimation model, utilizing camera-based sensor fusion techniques and edge devices. The system facilitates the direct collection and real-time processing of field data at the network periphery, distributing the computational load that typically centralizes. Additionally, by directly labeling field data, it aids in constructing new training datasets.
