최근에 선박을 안전하게 설계 및 운항하기 위해 인공지능으로 운동성능을 예측하는 연구가 늘고 있다. 하지만 일반적인 선박 에 비해 소형 어선에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 소형 어선의 운동성능 계산에 필수적인 운동응답을 심층신경망으로 추정하는 모델을 제안한다. 15척의 소형 어선에 대하여 유체동역학 해석을 수행하였으며 이를 통해 데이터베이스를 구축하였다. 환경 조 건과 주요 제원을 입력 데이터로, 단위 파고에 대한 운동응답(Response Amplitude Operator)을 출력 데이터로 설정하였다. 훈련된 심층신경 망 모델을 통해 예측된 운동응답은 유체동역학 해석 결과와 유사한 경향을 보이며 고주파 성분을 가진 운동응답 함수를 낮은 오차로 근 사하는 결과를 보여준다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 어선의 선형 특성 고려한 심층신경망 모델로 확장하여 연구 결과의 활용도를 넓히 고자 한다.

증산은 적정 관수 관리에 중요한 역할을 하므로 수분 스트레스에 취약한 토마토와 같은 작물의 관개 수요에 대한 지식이 필요하다. 관수량을 결정하는 한 가지 방법은 증산량을 측정하는 것인데, 이는 환경이나 생육 수준의 영향을 받는다. 본 연구는 분단위 데이터를 통해 수학적 모델과 딥러닝 모델을 활용하여 토마토의 증발량을 추정하 고 적합한 모델을 찾는 것을 목표로 한다. 라이시미터 데이터는 1분 간격으로 배지무게 변화를 측정함으로써 증산 량을 직접 측정했다. 피어슨 상관관계는 관찰된 환경 변수가 작물 증산과 유의미한 상관관계가 있음을 보여주었다. 온실온도와 태양복사는 증산량과 양의 상관관계를 보인 반면, 상대습도는 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 다중 선형 회귀 (MLR), 다항 회귀 모델, 인공 신경망(ANN), Long short-term memory(LSTM), Gated Recurrent Unit(GRU) 모델을 구 축하고 정확도를 비교했다. 모든 모델은 테스트 데이터 세트에서 0.770－0.948 범위의 R2 값과 0.495mm/min－ 1.038mm/min의 RMSE로 증산을 잠재적으로 추정하였다. 딥러닝 모델은 수학적 모델보다 성능이 뛰어났다. GRU 는 0.948의 R2 및 0.495mm/min의 RMSE로 테스트 데이터에서 최고의 성능을 보여주었다. LSTM과 ANN은 R2 값이 각각 0.946과 0.944, RMSE가 각각 0.504m/min과 0.511로 그 뒤를 이었다. GRU 모델은 단기 예측에서 우수한 성능 을 보였고 LSTM은 장기 예측에서 우수한 성능을 보였지만 대규모 데이터 셋을 사용한 추가 검증이 필요하다. FAO56 Penman-Monteith(PM) 방정식과 비교하여 PM은 MLR 및 다항식 모델 2차 및 3차보다 RMSE가 0.598mm/min으로 낮지만 분단위 증산의 변동성을 포착하는 데 있어 모든 모델 중에서 가장 성능이 낮다. 따라서 본 연구 결과는 온실 내 토마토 증산을 단기적으로 추정하기 위해 GRU 및 LSTM 모델을 권장한다.

전산유체역학을 사용하는 일반적인 선박의 저항성능 평가는 많은 시간과 비용이 필요하며, 이를 줄이기 위한 다양한 방법이 연구되고 있다. 선박의 주요 치수나 단면을 이용하는 기존의 방법들은 선형에 크게 좌우되는 저항성능을 추정하는데 한계가 있다. 본 논 문에서는 선형 격자의 기하학적 정보를 입력으로 선체 표면의 저항성능을 빠르게 추정할 수 있는 심층신경망 모델을 제안한다. Perceiver IO 기반의 제안하는 심층신경망 모델은 시간 단계별로 계산이 필요한 전산유체역학 기법과 달리 바로 저항성능 추정이 가능하며, 저속비 대선의 일종인 50K 탱커 선박을 대상으로 한 데이터집합에서 평균 1% 미만의 오차로 저항성능을 추정하는 결과를 보인다.

Deep convolutional network is a deep learning approach to optimize image recognition. This study aimed to apply DCNN to the reading of mandibular cortical thinning in digital panoramic radiographs. Digital panoramic radiographs of 1,268 female dental patients (age 45.2 ± 21.1yrs) were used in the reading of the mandibular cortical bone by two maxillofacial radiologists. Among the subjects, 535 normal subject’s panoramic radiographs (age 28.6 ±7.4 yrs) and 533 those of osteoporosis pationts (age 72.1 ± 8.7 yrs) with mandibular cortical thinning were used for training DCNN. In the testing of mandibular cortical thinning, 100 panoramic radiographs of normal subjects (age 26.6 ± 4.5 yrs) and 100 mandibular cortical thinning (age 72.5 ± 7.2 yrs) were used. The sensitive area of DCNN to mandibular cortical thinning was investigated by occluding analysis. The readings of DCNN were compared by two maxillofacial radiologists. DCNN showed 97.5% accuracy, 96% sensitivity, and 99% specificity in reading mandibular cortical thinning. DCNN was sensitively responded on the cancellous and cortical bone of the mandibular inferior area. DCNN was effective in diagnosing mandibular cortical thinning.

This research is about a study on the flow stress of Inconel 601 under hot deformation. For Inconel 601, hot compression tests on gleeble 3500 system under 925℃, 1050℃ and 1150℃ and 0.001/s, and 5/s of strain rates were done. The flow behavior of the Inconel 601 was studied and modeled. In this study, the flow stress was modeled using deep neural network and support vector regression algorithm. The flow stress of Inconel 601 was dependent on strain rate and temperature. It was found that both the deep neural network and support vector regression adequately described the flow stress variation of Inconel 601. However, the model by the support vector regression was found to be superior to the model by the deep neural network. The construction of the model by SVR was more efficient than the construction by DNN. Also the prediction accuracy of the model by SVR was better than the accuracy of the model by DNN. It is found that the MAPE(Mean absolute percentage error) of the DNN based model was 4.89% while the MAPE of the SVR based model was 1.98%.

Global warming due to the increase of greenhouse gases may significantly affect various aspects of the Earth’s environment and human life. In particular, the impacts of climate change on agriculture would be severe, leading to damages to crop yields. This paper examines the experimental prediction of rice yield in China using DNN (deep neural network) and climate model data for the period between 1979 and 2009. The DNN model built through the process of hyperparameter optimization can mitigate an overfitting problem and cope with outlier cases. Our model showed approximately 38.7% improved accuracy than the MLR (multiple linear regression) model, in terms of correlation coefficient with the yield statistics. We found that the diurnal temperature range and potential evapotranspiration were the critical factors for rice yield prediction. Our DNN model was also robust to extreme conditions such as drought in 2006 and 2007 in China, which showed its applicability to the future simulation of crop yields under climate change.

The video game Tetris is one of most popular game and it is well known that its game rule can be modelled as MDP (Markov Decision Process). This paper presents a DQN (Deep Q-Network) based game agent for Tetris game. To this end, the state is defined as the captured image of the Tetris game board and the reward is designed as a function of cleared lines by the game agent. The action is defined as left, right, rotate, drop, and their finite number of combinations. In addition to this, PER (Prioritized Experience Replay) is employed in order to enhance learning performance. To train the network more than 500000 episodes are used. The game agent employs the trained network to make a decision. The performance of the developed algorithm is validated via not only simulation but also real Tetris robot agent which is made of a camera, two Arduinos, 4 servo motors, and artificial fingers by 3D printing.

This paper presents a 6-DOF relocalization using a 3D laser scanner and a monocular camera. A relocalization problem in robotics is to estimate pose of sensor when a robot revisits the area. A deep convolutional neural network (CNN) is designed to regress 6-DOF sensor pose and trained using both RGB image and 3D point cloud information in end-to-end manner. We generate the new input that consists of RGB and range information. After training step, the relocalization system results in the pose of the sensor corresponding to each input when a new input is received. However, most of cases, mobile robot navigation system has successive sensor measurements. In order to improve the localization performance, the output of CNN is used for measurements of the particle filter that smooth the trajectory. We evaluate our relocalization method on real world datasets using a mobile robot platform.

In this paper, we propose a jellyfish distribution recognition and monitoring system using a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle). The UAV was designed to satisfy the requirements for flight in ocean environment. The target jellyfish, Aurelia aurita, is recognized through convolutional neural network and its distribution is calculated. The modified deep neural network architecture has been developed to have reliable recognition accuracy and fast operation speed. Recognition speed is about 400 times faster than GoogLeNet by using a lightweight network architecture. We also introduce the method for selecting candidates to be used as inputs to the proposed network. The recognition accuracy of the jellyfish is improved by removing the probability value of the meaningless class among the probability vectors of the evaluated input image and re-evaluating it by normalization. The jellyfish distribution is calculated based on the unit jellyfish image recognized. The distribution level is defined by using the novelty concept of the distribution map buffer.

As drones gain more popularity these days, drone detection becomes more important part of the drone systems for safety, privacy, crime prevention and etc. However, existing drone detection systems are expensive and heavy so that they are only suitable for industrial or military purpose. This paper proposes a novel approach for training Convolutional Neural Networks to detect drones from images that can be used in embedded systems. Unlike previous works that consider the class probability of the image areas where the class object exists, the proposed approach takes account of all areas in the image for robust classification and object detection. Moreover, a novel loss function is proposed for the CNN to learn more effectively from limited amount of training data. The experimental results with various drone images show that the proposed approach performs efficiently in real drone detection scenarios.

One of the most frequently performed tasks in human-robot interaction (HRI), intelligent vehicles, and security systems is face related applications such as face recognition, facial expression recognition, driver state monitoring, and gaze estimation. In these applications, accurate head pose estimation is an important issue. However, conventional methods have been lacking in accuracy, robustness or processing speed in practical use. In this paper, we propose a novel method for estimating head pose with a monocular camera. The proposed algorithm is based on a deep neural network for multi-task learning using a small grayscale image. This network jointly detects multi-view faces and estimates head pose in hard environmental conditions such as illumination change and large pose change. The proposed framework quantitatively and qualitatively outperforms the state-of-the-art method with an average head pose mean error of less than 4.5° in real-time.

This paper suggests the method of the spherical signature description of 3D point clouds taken from the laser range scanner on the ground vehicle. Based on the spherical signature description of each point, the extractor of significant environmental features is learned by the Deep Belief Nets for the urban structure classification. Arbitrary point among the 3D point cloud can represents its signature in its sky surface by using several neighborhood points. The unit spherical surface centered on that point can be considered to accumulate the evidence of each angular tessellation. According to a kind of point area such as wall, ground, tree, car, and so on, the results of spherical signature description look so different each other. These data can be applied into the Deep Belief Nets, which is one of the Deep Neural Networks, for learning the environmental feature extractor. With this learned feature extractor, 3D points can be classified due to its urban structures well. Experimental results prove that the proposed method based on the spherical signature description and the Deep Belief Nets is suitable for the mobile robots in terms of the classification accuracy.
