The purpose of this paper is to develop the pattern recognition system with a 'Robust' concept to be applicable to flexible manufacture automation in practice. The 'Robust' concept has four meanings as follows. First, pattern recognition is performed invariantly in case the object to be recognized is translated, scaled, and rotated. Second, it must have strong resistance against noise. Third, the completely learned system is adjusted flexibly regardless of new objects being added. Finally, it has to recognize objects fast. To develop the proposed system, contouring, spectral analysis and Fuzzy ART neural network are used in this study. Contouring and spectral analysis are used in preprocessing stage, and Fuzzy ART is used in object classification stage. Fuzzy ART is an unsupervised neural network for solving the stability-plasticity dilemma.

Shape descriptors play an important role in systems for object recognition, retrieval, registration, and analysis. Seven well-known descriptors including MPEG-7 visual descriptors arebriefly reviewed and a new robust pattern recognition descriptor is proposed. Performance comparison among descriptors are presented. Experiments show that the newly proposed descriptor yields better performance results than Fourier, invariant moment, and edge histogram descriptors.

컴퓨터 비전(Computer vision) 분야에서 물체인식을 위한 많은 알고리즘이 연구되고 있다. 그중 특징점(feature) 기반의 SURF(Speeded Up Robust Features) 알고리즘은 다른 알고리즘에 비해 속도와 정확도 면에서 우수하다. 하지만 SURF 알고리즘은 대응점 검출 시 대응점 오정합으로 물체인식에 실패하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문은 물체 인식률을 향상하기 위하여 SURF와 RANSAC(Random Sample Consensus) 알고리즘을 기반으로 물체인식 시스템을 구현하고, 패턴인식 필터링을 제안하였다. 또한, 실험을 통하여 물체 인식률 향상 결과를 제시하였다.

Facial expression recognition (FER) plays a very significant role in computer vision, pattern recognition, and image processing applications such as human computer interaction as it provides sufficient information about emotions of people. For video-based facial expression recognition, depth cameras can be better candidates over RGB cameras as a person's face cannot be easily recognized from distance-based depth videos hence depth cameras also resolve some privacy issues that can arise using RGB faces. A good FER system is very much reliant on the extraction of robust features as well as recognition engine. In this work, an efficient novel approach is proposed to recognize some facial expressions from time-sequential depth videos. First of all, efficient Local Binary Pattern (LBP) features are obtained from the time-sequential depth faces that are further classified by Generalized Discriminant Analysis (GDA) to make the features more robust and finally, the LBP-GDA features are fed into Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) to train and recognize different facial expressions successfully. The depth information-based proposed facial expression recognition approach is compared to the conventional approaches such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Independent Component Analysis (ICA), and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) where the proposed one outperforms others by obtaining better recognition rates.

Pattern recognition in three dimensional image is highly sensitive to assigned value and formation of voxels (pixels for two dimension case). However, occurred while digital imaging, digitization error leads to unpredictable noises in image data. Skeletonization, a powerful tool of pattern recognition, is sensitively dependent on boundary formation. Without successful controlling of the noises, the results of skeletonization can not be allowed as a stable solution. To minimize the effect of noises affecting to boundary formation, we developed a robust processing method useful in skeletonization technique for pattern recognition. Finally, we provide rigorous test results achieved throughout simulation on analytic three dimensional image.

Despite many combined research efforts outstanding needs exist to develop robust safety-estimation methods for large complex structures. This paper presents a practical damage identification scheme which can be applied to truss structures using only limited modal responses. firstly a theory of pattern recognition (PR) is described. Secondly existing damage-detection algorithms are outlined and a newly-derived algorithms for truss structures. Finally the feasibility of the proposed scheme is evaluated using numerical examples of plane truss structures.

This paper presents an EMG pattern classification method to identify motion commands for the control of the artificial arm by SOM-TVC(self organizing map - tracking Voronoi cell) based on neural network with a feature parameter. The eigenvalue is extracted as a feature parameter from the EMG signals and Voronoi cells is used to define each pattern boundary in the pattern recognition space. And a TVC algorithm is designed to track the movement of the Voronoi cell varying as the condition of additive noise. Results are presented to support the efficiency of the proposed SOM-TVC algorithm for EMG pattern recognition and compared with the conventional EDM and BPNN methods.

본 논문에서는 MCS-LBP 이진패턴 영상과 2D-PCA 알고리즘을 이용한 조명 변화에 강인한 얼굴인식 시스템에 대하여 제안한다. 이진패턴 변환은 기존의 얼굴인식 및 표정인식 분야에 사용되는 기법으로, 일반적으로 조명 변화에 강인한 특성을 갖는다. 이에 본 논문에서는 기존의 LBP보다 조명 변화에 더 강인한 MCS-LBP를 제안하고, 더불어 2D-PCA 알고리즘과 결합하는 얼굴인식 시스템을 제안한다. 제안하는 얼굴인식 방법의 성능평가는 기존의 다양한 이진패턴 변환 영상과 얼굴인식에 널리 사용되고 있는 PCA, LDA, 2D-PCA 및 가버영상의 ULBP 히스토그램 특징을 사용하여 수행하였다. 다양한 조명변화 환경에서 구축된 YaleB, extended YaleB, CMU-PIE 등의 공인 얼굴 데이터베이스를 이용하여 실험한 결과, 제안하는 MCS-LBP영상과 2D-PCA 특징을 사용한 방법이 가장 우수한 인식 성능을 보였다.

일반적으로 이진패턴 변환은 조명 변화에 강인한 특성을 가지므로, 얼굴인식 및 표정인식 분야에 널리 사용되고 있다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 기존의 LDP(Local Directional Pattern)의 텍스처 성분을 개선한 MLDP(Modified LDP) 변환 영상에 2D-PCA(Two-Dimensional Principal Component Analysis) 알고리즘을 결합한 조명변화에 강인한 얼굴인식 방법에 대하여 제안한다. 기존의 LBP(Local Binary Pattern)나 LDP와 같은 이진패턴 변환들이 히스토그램 특징 추출을 위해 주로 사용되는 것과는 다르게, 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 MLDP 영상을 2D-PCA 특징추출을 위해 직접 사용한다는 특성을 갖는다. 제안 방법의 성능평가는 PCA(Principal Component Analysis), 2D-PCA 및 가버변환 영상과 LBP를 결합한 알고리즘을 사용하여, 다양한 조명변화 환경에서 구축된 Yale B 및 CMU-PIE 데이터베이스를 이용하여 수행되었다. 실험 결과, MLDP 영상과 2D-PCA를 사용한 제안 방법이 가장 우수한 인식 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

Face recognition has recently become one of the most popular research areas in the fields of computer vision, machine learning, and pattern recognition because it spans numerous applications, such as access control, surveillance, security, credit-card verification, and criminal identification. In this paper, we propose a simple descriptor called an ECSP(Extended Center-Symmetric Pattern) for illumination-robust face recognition. The ECSP operator encodes the texture information of a local face region by emphasizing diagonal components of a previous CS-LBP(Center-Symmetric Local Binary Pattern). Here, the diagonal components are emphasized because facial textures along the diagonal direction contain much more information than those of other directions. The facial texture information of the ECSP operator is then used as the input image of an image covariance-based feature extraction algorithm such as 2D-PCA(Two-Dimensional Principal Component Analysis). Performance evaluation of the proposed approach was carried out using various binary pattern operators and recognition algorithms on the Yale B database. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed approach achieved better recognition accuracy than other approaches, and we confirmed that the proposed approach is effective against illumination variation.
