  • Two 11-year-old cats, female Korean shorthair cat and male Siamese cat, with abdominal distention were presented to the local animal hospitals. Radiographic and ultrasonographic examinations revealed moderate to severe splenomegaly in both cats. In Korean shorthair cat, multiple masses were also existed on the anal and facial skin. Surgically excised whole spleens of two cats were requested for histopathologic examination. Histopathologically, numerous neoplastic round cells with cytoplasmic fine granules were widely infiltrated in the splenic parenchyma. The cytoplasmic granules were metachromatic on toluidine blue staining. These splenic masses were diagnosed as splenic mast cell tumors. Among them, Korean shorthair cat was remained healthy for at least 1 year after splenectomy. Because of no visiting of owner, we were only able to know the information for Siamese cat until 10 months after the splenectomy. To our best knowledge, this is the first detail case reports for splenic mast cell tumors in cats in Korea.

  • This paper presents a method for 1:1 verification by comparing the similarity between the given real product image and the drawing image. The proposed method combines two existing CNN-based deep learning models to construct a Siamese Network. After extracting the feature vector of the image through the FC (Fully Connected) Layer of each network and comparing the similarity, if the real product image and the drawing image (front view, left and right side view, top view, etc) are the same product, the similarity is set to 1 for learning and, if it is a different product, the similarity is set to 0. The test (inference) model is a deep learning model that queries the real product image and the drawing image in pairs to determine whether the pair is the same product or not. In the proposed model, through a comparison of the similarity between the real product image and the drawing image, if the similarity is greater than or equal to a threshold value (Threshold: 0.5), it is determined that the product is the same, and if it is less than or equal to, it is determined that the product is a different product. The proposed model showed an accuracy of about 71.8% for a query to a product (positive: positive) with the same drawing as the real product, and an accuracy of about 83.1% for a query to a different product (positive: negative). In the future, we plan to conduct a study to improve the matching accuracy between the real product image and the drawing image by combining the parameter optimization study with the proposed model and adding processes such as data purification.

  • There are many different researches about how to analyze issues based on real-time news streams. But, there are few researches which analyze issues hierarchically from news articles and even a previous research of hierarchical issue analysis make clustering speed slower as the increment of news articles. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical and incremental clustering for semi real-time issue analysis on news articles. We trained siamese neural network based weighted cosine similarity model, applied this model to k-means algorithm which is used to make word clusters and converted news articles to document vectors by using these word clusters. Finally, we initialized an issue cluster tree from document vectors, updated this tree whenever news articles happen, and analyzed issues in semi real-time. Through the experiment and evaluation, we showed that up to about 0.26 performance has been improved in terms of NMI. Also, in terms of speed of incremental clustering, we also showed about 10 times faster than before.

  • A chat system is a computer program that understands user's miscellaneous utterances and generates appropriate responses. Sometimes a chat system needs to answer users' simple information-seeking questions. However, previous generative chat systems do not consider how to embed knowledge entities (i.e., subjects and objects in triple knowledge), essential elements for question-answering. The previous chat models have a disadvantage that they generate same responses although knowledge entities in users' utterances are changed. To alleviate this problem, we propose a knowledge entity embedding method for improving question-answering accuracies of a generative chat system. The proposed method uses a Siamese recurrent neural network for embedding knowledge entities and their synonyms. For experiments, we implemented a sequence-to-sequence model in which subjects and predicates are encoded and objects are decoded. The proposed embedding method showed 12.48% higher accuracies than the conventional embedding method based on a convolutional neural network.

  • Inspired by the rapid development of deep learning and online biometrics-based authentication, we propose a handwritten one-time password authentication system which employs deep learning-based handwriting recognition and writer verification techniques. We design a convolutional neural network to recognize handwritten digits and a Siamese network to compute the similarity between the input handwriting and the genuine user's handwriting. We propose the first application of the second edition of NIST Special Database 19 for a writer verification task. Our system achieves 98.58% accuracy in the handwriting recognition task, and about 93% accuracy in the writer verification task based on four input images. We believe the proposed handwriting-based biometric technique has potential for use in a variety of online authentication services under the FIDO framework.

  • In this paper, we propose a training method of a recommendation learning model that analyzes the battlefield situation and recommends a suitable hypothesis for the current situation. The proposed learning model uses the preference determined by comparing the two hypotheses as a label data to learn which hypothesis best analyzes the current battlefield situation. Our model is based on Siamese neural network architecture which uses the same weights on two different input vectors. The model takes two hypotheses as an input, and learns the priority between two hypotheses while sharing the same weights in the twin network. In addition, a score is given to each hypothesis through the proposed post-processing ranking algorithm, and hypotheses with a high score can be recommended to the commander in charge.

  • The AI based intelligent command and control system can automatically analyzes the properties of intricate battlefield information and tactical data. In addition, commanders can receive situation analysis results and battlefield awareness through the system to support decision-making. It is necessary to build a battlefield situation analysis dataset similar to the actual battlefield situation for learning AI in order to provide decision-making support to commanders. In this paper, we explain the next step of the dataset construction method of the existing previous research, 'A Virtual Battlefield Situation Dataset Generation for Battlefield Analysis based on Artificial Intelligence'. We proposed a method to build the dataset required for the final battlefield situation analysis results to support the commander's decision-making and recognize the future battlefield. We developed 'Dataset Generator SW', a software tool to build a learning dataset for battlefield situation analysis, and used the SW tool to perform data labeling. The constructed dataset was input into the Siamese Network model. Then, the output results were inferred to verify the dataset construction method using a post-processing ranking algorithm.

  • Following importation of temperate Australian breeds of sheep into Malaysia, it was demonstrated that there was variability in libido and semen productivity. Consequently, a study was conducted to determine the concentration of testosterone and relate it with libido and semen production. A total of 10 rams each of Dorset Horn, Cross of Merino with Border Leicester, Siamese Long Tail, Suffolk and local Malin were used to study the composition of testosterone in the blood plasma of these breeds. The study showed that there was significant difference between the testosterone level of different breeds in Spring and Summer but not in Autumn and Winter. The difference was pronounced in August and January. A significant difference (p > 0.05) was recorded in the testosterone levels of the different breeds during the day where Malin had better libido compared to the other breeds. There was no significant difference between the testosterone levels of the different breeds at night. The testosterone level of Suffolk, however, was elevated throughout the night (2.00 ng/ml and over) which resulted in better libido at night compared to the other breeds.

  • At the time of visiting, the cat was 6-year-old female Siamese cat. The mammary mass was solid and firm and measured $2{\times}5cm^2$ in greatest diameter. The uterus revealed thick uterine horn and cross sectioned wall. Histopathologically, the mammary mass revealed feline mammary carcinoma. In the uterus, cystic endometrial hyperplasia was observed. Feline leukemia virus positive reaction was detected by polymerase chain reaction. As far as we know, this is the first report of the simultaneous feline mammary carcinoma and uterine endometrial cystic hyperplasia with Feline leukemia virus infection in a cat.

  • 딥러닝 기술에 있어서 대량의 학습 데이터가 필요하다는 한계점을 극복하기 위한 시도로서, 적은 데이터 만으로도 좋은 성능을 낼 수 있는 few-shot 학습 모델이 꾸준히 발전하고 있다. 하지만 few-shot 학습 모델의 가장 큰 단점인 적은 데이터로 인한 과적합 문제는 여전히 어려운 숙제로 남아있다. 본 논문에서는 모델 압축에 사용되는 distillation 기법을 사용하여 few-shot 학습 모델의 학습 문제를 개선하고자 한다. 이를 위해 대표적인 few-shot 모델인 Siamese Networks, Prototypical Networks, Matching Networks에 각각 distillation을 적용하였다. 본 논문의 실험결과로써 단순히 결과값에 대한 참/거짓 뿐만 아니라, 참/거짓에 대한 신뢰도까지 같이 학습함으로써 few-shot 모델의 학습 문제 개선에 도움이 된다는 것을 실험적으로 증명하였다.
