This study explores the use of a Deep Autoencoder model to predict depression among plant and machine operators, utilizing data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES, n=3,852). The Deep Autoencoder model outperformed the Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes, XGBoost, and LightGBM models, achieving an accuracy of 86.5%. Key factors influencing depression included work stress, exposure to hazardous substances, and ergonomic conditions. The findings highlight the potential of the Deep Autoencoder model as a robust tool for early identification and intervention in workplace mental health.

Anomaly detection for each industrial machine is recognized as one of the essential techniques for machine condition monitoring and preventive maintenance. Anomaly detection of industrial machinery relies on various diagonal data from equipped sensors, such as temperature, pressure, electric current, vibration, and sound, to name a few. Among these data, sound data are easy to collect in the factory due to the relatively low installation cost of microphones to existing facilities. We develop a real time anomalous sound detection (ASD) system with the use of Autoencoder (AE) models in the industrial environments. The proposed processing pipeline makes use of the audio features extracted from the streaming audio signal captured by a single-channel microphone. The pipeline trains AE model by the collected normal sound. In real factory applications, the reconstruction error generated by the trained AE model with new input sound streaming is calculated to measure the degree of abnormality of the sound event. The sound is identified as anomalous if the reconstruction error exceeds the preset threshold. In our experiment on the CNC milling machining, the proposed system shows 0.9877 area under curve (AUC) score.

Recently there was an incident that military radars, coastal CCTVs and other surveillance equipment captured a small rubber boat smuggling a group of illegal immigrants into South Korea, but guards on duty failed to notice it until after they reached the shore and fled. After that, the detection of such vessels before it reach to the Korean shore has emerged as an important issue to be solved. In the fields of marine navigation, Automatic Identification System (AIS) is widely equipped in vessels, and the vessels incessantly transmits its position information. In this paper, we propose a method of automatically identifying abnormally behaving vessels with AIS using convolutional autoencoder (CAE). Vessel anomaly detection can be referred to as the process of detecting its trajectory that significantly deviated from the majority of the trajectories. In this method, the normal vessel trajectory is gridded as an image, and CAE are trained with images from historical normal vessel trajectories to reconstruct the input image. Features of normal trajectories are captured into weights in CAE. As a result, images of the trajectories of abnormal behaving vessels are poorly reconstructed and end up with large reconstruction errors. We show how correctly the model detects simulated abnormal trajectories shifted a few pixel from normal trajectories. Since the proposed model identifies abnormally behaving ships using actual AIS data, it is expected to contribute to the strengthening of security level when it is applied to various maritime surveillance systems.

많은 사용자가 함께 즐기는 온라인 게임(MMOGs)에서 IoT의 확장은 서버에 엄청난 부하를 지 속적으로 증가시켜, 모든 데이터들이 Big-Data화 되어가는 환경에 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 딥러 닝 기법 중에서 가장 많이 사용되는 Sparse Autoencoder와 이미 잘 알려진 부하분산 알고리즘 (ProGReGA-KF)을 결합한다. 기존 알고리즘 ProGReGA-KF과 본 논문에서 제안한 알고리즘을 이동 안정성으로 비교하였고, 제안한 알고리즘이 빅-데이터 환경에서 좀 더 안정적이고 확장성이 있 음 시뮬레이션을 통해 보였다.
