Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Electroencephalogram Analysis Method to Detect Unspoken Answers to Questions Using Multistage Neural Networks, IEEE Access, Vol.11, 137151-137162, 2023.
(Summary)
Braincomputer interfaces (BCI) facilitate communication between the human brain and computational systems, additionally offering mechanisms for environmental control to enhance human life. The current study focused on the application of BCI for communication support, especially in detecting unspoken answers to questions. Utilizing a multistage neural network (MSNN) replete with convolutional and pooling layers, the proposed method comprises a threefold approach: electroencephalogram (EEG) measurements, EEG feature extraction, and answer classification. The EEG signals of the participants are captured as they mentally respond with yes or no to the posed questions. Feature extraction was achieved through an MSNN composed of three distinct convolutional neural network models. The first model discriminates between the EEG signals with and without discernible noise artifacts, whereas the subsequent two models are designated for feature extraction from EEG signals with or without such noise artifacts. Furthermore, a support vector machine is employed to classify the answers to the questions. The proposed method was validated via experiments using authentic EEG data. The mean and standard deviation values for sensitivity and precision of the proposed method were 99.6% and 0.2%, respectively. These findings demonstrate the viability of attaining high accuracy in a BCI by preliminarily segregating the EEG signals based on the presence or absence of artifact noise and underscore the stability of such classification. Thus, the proposed method manifests prospective advantages of separating EEG signals characterized by noise artifacts for enhanced BCI performance.

(Summary)
We propose a method to detect human wants by using an electroencephalogram (EEG) test and specifying brain activity sensing positions. EEG signals can be analyzed by using various techniques. Recently, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been employed to analyze EEG signals, and these analyses have produced excellent results. Therefore, this paper employs CNN to extract EEG features. Also, support vector machines (SVMs) have shown good results for EEG pattern classification. This paper employs SVMs to classify the human cognition into wants, not wants, and other feelings. In EEG measurements, the electrical activity of the brain is recorded using electrodes placed on the scalp. The sensing positions are related to the frontal cortex and/or temporal cortex activities although the mechanism to create wants is not clear. To specify the sensing positions and detect human wants, we conducted experiments using real EEG data. We confirmed that the mean and standard deviation values of the detection accuracy rate were 99.4% and 0.58%, respectively, when the target sensing positions were related to the frontal and temporal cortex activities. These results prove that both the frontal and temporal cortex activities are relevant for creating wants in the human brain, and that CNN and SVMare effective for the detection of human wants.

Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Individual Differences in Brain Activities When Human Wishes to Listen to Music Continuously Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology, Vol.29, No.6, 807-813, 2020.
(Summary)
This paper introduces an individual difference in the activities of the prefrontal cortex when a person wants to listen to music using near-infrared spectroscopy. The individual differences are confirmed by visualizing the variation in oxygenated hemoglobin level. The sensing positions used to record the brain activities are around the prefrontal cortex. The existence of individual differences was verified by experiments. The experiment results show that active positions while feeling a wish to listen to music are different in each subject, and an oxygenated hemoglobin level is different in each subject compared to its value when a subject does not feel the wish to listen to music. The experiment results show that it is possible to detect a wish to listen to the music based on changes in the oxygenated hemoglobin level. Also, these results suggest that active positions are different in each subject because the sensitivities and how to feel on stimulus are different. Lastly, the results suggest that it is possible to express the individual differences as differences in active positions.

Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Japanese sign language classification based on gathered images and neural networks, International Journal of Advances in Intelligent Informatics, Vol.5, No.3, 243-255, 2019.
(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to classify words in Japanese Sign Language (JSL). This approach employs a combined gathered image generation technique and a neural network with convolutional and pooling layers (CNNs). The gathered image generation generates images based on mean images. Herein, the maximum difference value is between blocks of mean and JSL motions images. The gathered images comprise blocks that having the calculated maximum difference value. CNNs extract the features of the gathered images, while a support vector machine for multi-class classification, and a multilayer perceptron are employed to classify 20 JSL words. The experimental results had 94.1% for the mean recognition accuracy of the proposed method. These results suggest that the proposed method can obtain information to classify the sample words.

(Summary)
With the progress of IoT, everything is going to be connected to the network. It will bring us a lot of benefits however some security risks will be occurred by connecting network. To avoid such problems, it is indispensable to strengthen security more than now. We focus on personal authentication as one of the security.As a security enhancement method, we proposed a method to carry out numeral identification and personal authentication using numerals written in the air with Leap motion sensor. In this paper, we also focus on proper handling of aerial input numerals to verify whether the numerals written in the air are helpful for authentication. We collect numerals 0 to 9 from five subjects, then apply three preprocessing to these data, learn and authenticate them by CNN (convolutional neural network) which is a method of machine learning. As a result of learning, an average authentication accuracy was 92.4%. This result suggests that numerals written in the air are possible to carry out personal authentication and it will be able to construct a better authentication system.
Shin-ichi Ito, Koyuki Orihashi, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : A Gathered Images Analysis Method to Evaluate Sound Sleep, Journal of the Institute of Industrial Applications Engineers, Vol.7, No.1, 16-24, 2019.
(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to evaluate a sound sleep using an image gathering technique and itsanalysis techniques. The proposed method consists of three phases; gathered images generation, gathered images analysis and sound sleep evaluation. The gathered images designed to gather sleep postures and their changes are generated at 1 second, 10 seconds, 1 minute, 10 minutes, 1 hour intervals and all times, respectively. In the gathered image analysis, the gathered images are analyzed by calculating difference values among the gathered images of 10-minute and all times. Then, the sound sleep conditions are evaluated by visual inspection and analysis results. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments using real movies and their images. In experimental results, we confirm that there were sound sleep conditions, bad sleep conditions and borderline cases by checking subjective evaluation using questionnaire and generated gathered images visually. Moreover, we confirm that the calculated difference values among the gathered images of 10-minute and all times are different between sound sleep and other cases. Furthermore, the analyzed results show that the proposed method was successful in the sleep conditions classifications on four of five subjects. These results suggest that the gathered images analysis method is effective for evaluating whether sleep condition is sound sleep or not. In particular, it is important to calculate the difference values among the gathered images of 10-minute and all times to evaluate sleeping conditions.
Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : An Electroencephalogram Analysis Method to Detect Preference Patterns Using Gray Association Degrees and Support Vector Machines, Advances in Science, Technology and Engineering Systems, Vol.3, No.5, 105-108, 2018.
(Summary)
This paper introduces an electroencephalogram (EEG) analysis method to detect preferences for particular sounds. Our study aims to create novel braincomputer interfaces (BMIs) to control human mental (NBMICM), which are used to detect human mental conditions i.e., preferences, thinking, and consciousness, choose stimuli to control these mental conditions, and evaluate these choices. It is important to detect the preferences on stimuli. If the stimuli related to the preference can be detected, the NBCIMC can provide stimuli to the user based on their emotions by detecting their favorite stimuli. The proposed method adopted EEG recording technique, extraction techniques of EEG features and detection methods of preferences. EEG recording employs a simple electroencephalograph, for which the measurement position is the left frontal lobe (Fp1) of the brain. We assume that the differences of the EEG activities on the patterns of preference are expressed in the association between the changes of the power spectra on each frequency band of the EEG. To calculate the association, we employ the gray theory model. The EEG feature is extracted by calculating the gray association degree, then, the preferences are detect using a support vector machine (SVM). Experiments are conducted to test the effectiveness of this method, which is validated by a mean accuracy rate >88% on the favorite sound detection. These results suggest that the detection of subjects favorite sounds becomes easy when the EEG signals are analyzed while the gray associate degrees are used as the EEG feature and the SVM is used as the classifier.

Higasa Takashi, Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : A Specification Method of Character String Region in Augmented Reality, Journal of the Institute of Industrial Applications Engineers, Vol.6, No.2, 73-79, 2018.
(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to enter characters and/or character string in an augmented reality usinga gesture motion. The proposed method detects the region of character string using the gesture motion. It consistsof five phases; template generation, skin color detection, hand region detection, gesture motion extraction anddesignation of character string region. The template image consists of two fingers because a gesture is to takehold the tips of the first and second fingers. In the skin color detection, we extract the skin color on the basis ofvalues in saturation by using threshold processing. The hand region is detected by calculating areas and detectingthe area with the maximum value as a hand. The gesture motion is extracted using template matching. In orderto show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments for character string specification.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose a method which can discriminate hand motions. We measured an electromyogram of wrist by using 8 dry type sensors. We focused on four motions, such as ``Rock-Scissors-Paper'' and ``Neutral''. ``Neutral'' is a state that does not do anything. In the proposed method, we apply fast Fourier transformation (FFT) to measured EMG data, and then remove hum noise. Next, we combine values of sensors based on a gaussian function. In this gaussian function, variance and mean are 0.2 and 0, respectively. After that, we apply normalization by linear transformation to the values. Subsequently, we resize the values into range from -1 to 1. Finally, support vector machine (SVM) conducts learning and discrimination. We conducted experiments in three subjects. Discrimination accuracy of the proposed method for three subjects was 96.9%, 95.3%, 92.2%, respectively. It is clear that the gaussian function is robust to difference of sensor position because this function combines both adjacent channels of sensors.

(Summary)
This paper discusses a method to detect electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns using a self-organizing map(SOM) based on a learning algorithm for plural-attribute information (SOMPA). The input data for SOMPA has two attributes which are EEG feature and individual feature. We set the EEG feature to main feature and individual feature to sub-attribute information. The winning node in the learning algorithm of SOMPA is determined by using main feature and sub-attribute information. In the preprocessing, we extract the EEG feature vector by calculating the time average on each frequency band which are , and , respectively. The individual feature is analyzed though the ego analysis using psychological testing. In order to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments using real EEG data. The experimental results show that the EEG pattern detection accuracy using SOMPA improves compared with the standard SOM.

(Summary)
In this paper we introduce a method to classify matching patterns between music and human mood using an electroencephalogram (EEG) analysis technique and considering personality. We analyse the EEG of the left prefrontal cortex by single-point sensing. The EEG recording device uses dry-type sensors. The feature vector is created by connecting the personality quantification results and the EEG features. Egogramsthe Yatabe-Guilford personality inventory and a Kretschmer-type personality inventory are used to quantify personality. The EEG features are extracted using fast Fourier transform. Then, the matching patterns are classified using the k-nearest neighbour method. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments using real EEG data.

Peng Zhang, Momoyo Ito, Shin-ichi Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Development of Eye Mouse Using EOG signals and Learning Vector Quantization Method, Journal of the Institute of Industrial Applications Engineers, Vol.3, No.2, 52-58, 2015.
(Summary)
Recognition of eye motions has attracted more and more attention of researchers all over the world in recent years. Compared with other body movements, eye motion is responsive and needs a low consumption of physical strength. In particular, for patients with severe physical disabilities, eye motion is the last spontaneous motion for them to make a respond. In order to provide an efficient means of communication for patients such as ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) who cannot move even their muscles except eye, in this paper we proposed a system that uses EOG signals and Learning Vector Quantization algorithm to recognize eye motions. According to recognition results, we use API (application programming interface) to control cursor movements. This system would be used as a means of communication to help ALS patients.
Takako Ikuno, Momoyo Ito, Shin-ichi Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Lost Property Detection by Template Matching using Genetic Algorithm and Random Search, Journal of the Institute of Industrial Applications Engineers, Vol.3, No.2, 59-64, 2015.
(Summary)
In this paper, we propose an object search method which is adapted to transformation of an object to be searched to detect lost property. Object search is divided into two types; global and local searches. We used a template matching using Genetic Algorithm (GA) in the global search. Moreover we use a random search in the local search. According to experimental results, this system can detect rough position of the object to be searched. The search accuracy obtained using the present method is 83.6%, and that of a comparative experiment using only GA is 42.1%. We have verified that our proposed method is effective for lost property detection. In the future, we need to increase search accuracy to search objects more stably. In particular, we need to improve local search.

(Summary)
We propose an unsupervised segmentation method for magnetic resonance (MR) brain imaging by hybridizing the self-mapping characteristics of 1-D Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs) and by using incremental learning functions of fuzzy Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART). The proposed method requires no operator to specify the representative points. Nevertheless, it can segment the tissues (e.g., cerebrospinal fluid, gray matter, and white matter) necessary for brain atrophy diagnosis. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we specifically examine Fuzzy C-means (FCM) and Expectation Maximization Gaussian Mixture (EM-GM) with prior setting of the cluster number, and Mean Shift (MS) without prior setting of the cluster number. These experiments on the two metrics confirmed that our method can achieve higher accuracy than these conventional methods.

(Summary)
This paper introduces a method of preference analysis based on electroencephalogram (EEG) analysis of prefrontal cortex activity. The proposed method applies the relationship between EEG activity and the Egogram. The EEG senses a single point and records readings by means of a dry-type sensor and a small number of electrodes. The EEG analysis adapts the feature mining and the clustering on EEG patterns using a self-organizing map (SOM). EEG activity of the prefrontal cortex displays individual difference. To take the individual difference into account, we construct a feature vector for input modality of the SOM. The input vector for the SOM consists of the extracted EEG feature vector and a human character vector, which is the human character quantified through the ego analysis using psychological testing. In preprocessing, we extract the EEG feature vector by calculating the time average on each frequency band: theta, low-beta, and high-beta. To prove the effectiveness of the proposed method, we perform experiments using real EEG data. These results show that the accuracy rate of the EEG pattern classification is higher than it was before the improvement of the input vector.

(Summary)
This paper introduces a method to classify the preference patterns of sounds on the basis of an electroencephalogram (EEG) analysis and a personality analysis. We analyze the EEG of the left prefrontal cortex by single-point sensing. For EEG recording, a dry-type sensor and few electrodes were used. The proposed feature extraction method employs gray relational grade detection on the frequency bands of EEG and egogram. The gray relational grade is used for extracting the EEG feature. The egogram is extracted for quantifying the subject's personality. The preference patterns generated when the subject is hearing a sound are classified using the nearest neighbor method. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments using real EEG data. These results show that the accuracy rate of the preference classification using the proposed method is better than that using the method that does not to consider the subject's personality.

(Summary)
In this paper, we analyze drivers head posture during safety verification and propose a method for classifying head posture using two types of unsupervised neural networks: Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs) and fuzzy Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART). The proposed method can generate the optimal number of cluster-generated labels for the target problem. We experimentally assess the effectiveness of the proposed method by adjusting the fuzzy ART network vigilance parameters. In addition, we indicate that drivers head posture during safety verification can be categorized according to their individual properties.

Yohei Takeuchi, Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : A Nonlinear Learning Algorithm for Large Scale Datasets, International Journal of Engineering and Innovative Technology, Vol.2, No.7, 407-412, 2013.
(Summary)
Nonlinear feature generation techniques are among the most important processing tools in pattern recognition. As linear feature generation techniques, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Fisher Linear Discriminant Analysis (FLDA) have been developed and improved in various ways. Simple-FLDA (SFLDA) is an improved version of FLDA and has demonstrated good performance in recognition experiments. In SFLDA, eigenvectors spanning the eigenspace are obtained with simple iterative calculations, unlike the original FLDA which needs to solve eigenvalue problem of a covariance matrix created with all input samples. However, FLDA and SFLDA algorithms are both linear feature extraction methods. Therefore, the steps used for obtaining the eigenspace from an input space might not be suitable with respect to large, complex datasets. For adjustability to such datasets, the kernel trick is applied to many linear feature generation methods, turning them into nonlinear methods. In this paper, we propose Simple Kernel Discriminant Analysis (SKDA) for higher recognition performance by applying a kernel trick to the SFLDA algorithm. Similar to the SFLDA algorithm, SKDA algorithm is composed with simple calculations, but in recognition experiments using the UCI datasets as well as face image dataset; its features equal or surpass those of the SFLDA algorithm.

(Summary)
In the field of pattern recognition, principal component analysis (PCA) is one of the most well-known feature extraction methods for reducing the dimensionality of high-dimensional datasets. Simple-PCA (SPCA), which is a faster version of PCA, performs effectively with iterative operated learning. However, SPCA might not be efficient when input data are distributed in a complex manner because it learns without using the class information in the dataset. Thus, SPCA cannot be said to be optimal from the perspective of feature extraction for classification. In this study, we propose a new learning algorithm that uses the class information in the dataset. Eigenvectors spanning the eigenspace of the dataset are produced by calculating the data variations within each class. We present our proposed algorithm and discuss the results of our experiments that used UCI datasets to compare SPCA and our proposed algorithm.

(Summary)
We intend to construct an image diagnosis support system for Alzheimer-type Dementia (ATD) that extracts temporal lobe regions and an intracranial region as interest regions from a T2-weighted MR frontal image and uses the cerebral atrophy rates at the regions of interest. In this paper, we specifically discuss extraction of regions of interest. The proposed method consists of three steps. First, we emphasis features of an obscure T2-weighted brain image. Second, we set a first contour that approximates a shape of the temporal lobe region to a triangle and apply Balloon models with the added presser force that push the initial contour outside in order to extract a temporal lobe region. Finally, we extract an intracranial region using extracted temporal lobe regions. Our proposed method can extract regions of interest along individual brain features by only a few interactions with three points. We demonstrate the potential of our method using actual diagnosis images. Moreover, we show a possibility to use of atrophy rate at the regions of interest for diagnosis support of ATD.

(Summary)
Multiple MR brain images are acquired at once. To begin with, the medical specialists examine a MR brain image, which shows temporal lobes, a frontal lobe, and some important regions for diagnosis, located near the cerebral center. Automatic selection of the main image from MR brain image set is a useful diagnosis imaging support for medical specialists. This paper proposes a method for extracting a ventricle area in order to select a main image. The proposed method works three steps. First, the process using a mode method that extracts sliced areas from original MR brain images. Second, the Otsu's method performs a binary process. Third, a ventricle area is a unique shape and we therefore defined two rectangles: the frontal horn and the posterior horn of a lateral ventricle region. The experimental results revealed that the proposed algorithm was able to accurately extract the ventricle area from the image set.

(Summary)
We use Leap Motion and a deep neural network to perform personal authentication and character recognition of all hiragana characters entered in the air. We use Leap Motion to detect the index finger and store its trajectory as time series data. The input data was pre-processed to unify the data length by linear interpolation. For identification, the accuracy of Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) was compared with Support Vector Machine (SVM). As a result, SVM and LSTM achieved 97.25% and 98.18% F-measure in character recognition, respectively. In personal authentication, SVM has an accuracy of 92.45%, False Acceptance Rate (FAR) was 0.73%, and False Rejection Rate (FRR) was 41.59%. On the other hand, LSTM had an accuracy of 96.13%, FAR of 1.73% and FRR of 14.55%. Overall, the LSTM performed better than the SVM.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose to measure the EMGs of the wrist and fingers using dry-type sensors worn near the wrist, and to separate the measured data into wrist and finger EMGs by using independent component analysis (ICA). Then we can confirm the EMGs of the wrist and fingers from the complex motion and realize individual identification in more complex motions. The final goal of this study is to identify individual motions from complex motions. In this paper, as a preliminary step, the ICA is used to isolate compound motions and the validity of the method is evaluated. We measured the EMGs for three days and four motions. The results of the combination of FastICA, Infomax and JADE, respectively, were evaluated by the correlation coefficient with the original signal. The most accurate combination was FastICA + Infomax with an accuracy of 70.5%.

(Summary)
Recent years, interfaces using biometric information are progressing. Electromyogram(EMG) has been used in a variety of situations. Many studies have measured EMG in the shoulders and arms where there is a lot of muscle mass In addition, wet type sensors have been often used. However those are inconvenient to use in everyday life and high cost. In this research we measure wrist EMG for convenience and cost. Currently researches have been done on the wrist EMG motion identification and personal identification. These studies have conducted simple movements and a large number of electrodes for discrimination. Furthermore authentication by password sequence with gestures has not been done. In this paper we propose to realize motion identification and personal authentication with complex movements using a small number of electrodes. The measured data was preprocessed such as removing noise and smoothing. We compared the accuracies obtained using Support Vector Machine(SVM) and Long Short term memory(LSTM) for motion identification and authentication. The accuracies obtained using SVM and LSTM were 60.4%and 62.4%, respectively. In this case the number of data was small. It is therefore necessary for increasing the number of data to perform deep learning.

(Summary)
A method to classify Japanese sign language (JSL) words using a gathered image generation method and a convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed. The JSL words consist of words that are often used in information queries. Gathered images are generated based on the difference between the first image, which indicates the start position of a JSL word and target images, which indicate the motion position for a JSL word. The CNN is used to extract features from the gathered images. The JSL words are classified using a support vector machine. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conducted experiments and computer simulations. We confirmed that the mean recognition accuracy for 10, 20, and 42 JSL words was 99.2%, 94.3, and 86.2%, respectively.

(Summary)
In recent years, with the rapid development of the information society, the importance of personal authentication has become higher and higher. This paper focuses on the use of a Kinect sensor to obtain walking characteristics for personal authentication. In terms of the proposal method, Kinect is used to obtain body's physical feature quantity, such as the angle of joint bending when a person walks, the displacement of coordinates. In terms of learning recognition, the support vector machine and the obtained feature amount are used for personal authentication. We measured 3 subjects data 5 times a day for 4 days, and obtained an average recognition accuracy of 77.4% using crossvalidation.

In recent years, biological signals have attracted attention as tools for human interfaces. Researches on biological signals have been actively conducted. In this paper, we propose a method which distinguishes ten motions, such as One Two Three Four Five Six Seven Eight Nine and Ten by measured the electromyogram of the wrist. We measure data by installing 8 dry type sensors on the right wrist. We carry out frequency analysis using FFT and try to take 3 kinds of methods to remove noise. Finally, we use Support Vector Machine (SVM) for identification and classification. We conducted experiments with four subjects. In the experimental result, the accuracy of finger motions recognition was 65%. In the future, we will also add more methods to remove noise, and try to find other methods to improve the accuracy in the research.

(Summary)
This paper proposes a method for classifying answers to conversational questions from electroencephalogram (EEG) data. The proposed method includes steps for EEG recording, feature extraction, and answer classification. For EEG measurements, this paper employs a simple electroencephalograph. The EEG signals from the frontal lobe are recorded. The EEG features are calculated by normalizing the EEG signals and using convolutional neural networks (CNN) for extraction. The answers to questions are then classified from the EEG features using a support vector machine. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conducted experiments using real EEG data. The experimental results confirm that the mean recognition accuracy was 99% or more if the CNN features are individual to the subject. These results suggest that the answers to yes/no questions can be classified using EEG signals and that the EEG analysis technique using CNN and the support vector machine is suitable for extracting and classifying EEG features.

Kohei Sasada, Momoyo Ito, Shin-ichi Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Proposal of Japanese Sign Language Motion Recognition Method using Leap Motion, Proc. of ICEAS 2019, 74-84, Honolulu, Aug. 2019.
(Summary)
In Japan, in recent years, many people suffer from hearing and language related disorders. Sign language is then one of their main means of communication. As their opinion, there is a demand for smooth communication means. In recent years, researches using motion sensors are in progress. In particular, we focus on Leap Motion as a motion sensor in this research. The final goal is to build a sign language recognition system, and this paper proposes a sign language recognition method as the first step. The measured data using the Leap Motion sensor are subjected to preprocessing such as vectorization, distance transformation, noise processing, data length change, and correction of operation start position. An identification unit uses SVM and CNN to compare their accuracy. The result was 98.86% for SVM and 97.11% for CNN. SVM was 1.75% higher than CNN in accuracy. However, the CNN used in this experiment has a simple layer configuration, and its accuracy can be expected to be improved by changing the layer configuration. In addition, it is considered that the accuracy is improved by adding a feature amount or devising pre-processing as a measure for improving misidentification. In the future, we would like to introduce those methods and cope with sign languages other than Japanese sign language.

(Summary)
Inattentive driving is one of the main causes of traffic accidents. It is required to develop a system for detecting this inattentive state from in-vehicle information and biological information. In this paper, we obtain visual information and heart rate information and describe the driver's state estimation. We verify the usefulness of the proposed method in a simulated environment with a driving simulator. Moreover, in order to aim at the installation of a real vehicle environment, we build a general model which doesn't choose the target person, and an individual model focusing on driving characteristics such as individual habits and investigate the usefulness of these models.
Ryosuke Saitoh, Momoyo Ito, Shin-ichi Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Construction of Japanese Vowel Identification System Using Lips EMG, Proc. of ICEAS 2019, 41-49, Honolulu, Aug. 2019.
(Summary)
Recent years, biological signals have attracted much attention as a tool of human interface. Electromyogram(EMG) has been used in a variety of situations in particular. On the one hand, people who lost their voices due to vocal disorder communicate by alternative means of voice. In recent years, researches for detecting speech by electromyography analysis and image analysis have been actively conducted. Therefore, in this paper, we measure EMG by attaching dry type sensors to facial muscles, and identify Japanese vowels. A method proposed in this paper consists of an input, a preprocessing, and a learning identifying sections. We attach dry type sensors to muscles around the lips and measure EMG signals. We use a convolutional neural network(CNN) for learning and identification. In addition, we try to use a support vector machine(SVM) for comparison. The average identification accuracy by CNN was 67.4%. On the other hand, the average identification accuracy by SVM was 70.2%. In future work, we will try to increase the number of data and improve CNN accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to ameliorate a layer configuration in CNN.

Shun Yamamoto, Momoyo Ito, Shin-ichi Ito and Minoru Fukumi : An authentication system for aerial input numerals using Leap motion and CNN, Proc. of ICEAS 2019, 29-40, Honolulu, Aug. 2019.
(Summary)
As information technology has advanced in recent years, services which include personal authentication systems such as ATM are increasing. Current main personal authentication systems include IC cards, passwords, and biometrics authentication such as fingerprint authentication. However, there are several problems in these systems. Therefore, better systems are needed. As such systems, we propose a method to write numerals in the air using the Leap motion and to carry out personal authentication from such aerial handwriting data. We try to authenticate numerals 0 to 9 which are written by three subjects. After applying some pre-processing to inputs, learning and identification are carried out using CNN which is a method of machine learning. As a result, average identification accuracy was 92.7%. From this result, it is suggested that input numerals in the air can be authenticated and there is a possibility to construct a new personal authentication system.

(Summary)
This paper proposes a method for classifying Japanese sign language (JSL) using a combined gathered image generation technique and a convolutional neural network (CNN) approach. In the combined gathered image generation, the maximum difference from the previous and next images is calculated for each block, and the block information that had maximum difference was embedded into an image on all blocks. After information on all images has been gathered into single words, the CNNs are used to extract features for the classification of JSL words. A multi-class support vector machine (SVM) is then used to classify words related to greeting and requesting. The mean and the standard deviation of the recognition accuracy of the proposed method were experimentally shown to be 84.2% and 4%, respectively. These results suggest that it is possible to obtain information for classifying 10 JSL words using the proposed combined gathered image generation and CNN approach.

(Summary)
Security cameras are increasing in public facilities. The main reason is improvement of security. Furthermore, security cameras help quick arrest of criminals. It is, therefore, important that we install security cameras. However, we expect to obtain too much data of movie by increasing the number of cameras too. Security guard cannot watch all movie of all cameras always. For these reasons, we thought not only getting data but also security improvement. If humans have dangerous objects, the movies situation should define them as dangerous. First, we detect humans in camera's images. Second, if we detect dangerous objects in human detection area, we think that there are dangerous humans. We use SSD to detect humans and dangerous objects.

(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to extract change of lunula of the nail. The proposed method consists of three phases; HSV color system conversion, finger detection, and rectangle search. In the HSV color system conversion, we converts the RGB color system into the HSV color system. Then, color components are divided into each component of Hue, Saturation, Value. In the finger detection, we use the threshold value of Value in HSV for finger detection. We apply the labeling process to the binarized image for saving the fingertip area. In the rectangle search, the change of the Hue histogram in the rectangle is used to extract the lunula and the edge of the nail plate. The rectangle moves upward until it finds an edge. The height of the lunula is calculated using the extracted edge. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conducted experiments.

(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to detect the presence and absence of learning understanding using center cumulative frequency comparison (CCFC) method and multistage independent component analysis (ICA). The proposed method consists of four stages: electroencephalogram (EEG) measurement, EEG preprocessing, EEG feature extraction and EEG pattern classification. In the EEG measurement, the EEG signals are measured using a simple electroencephalograph. The EEG preprocessing consists of two phases: eye blink artifacts detection and eye blink artifacts removal. The EEG feature extraction consists of two phases: frequency analysis and band division based on the rhythm of brain activities. In the EEG pattern classification, k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) is used to classify EEG patterns on the basis of band division results. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, this paper conducted three cases. The experimental results suggest that split of the discrimination model using the proposed method is relatively effective when detecting the presence and absence of learning understanding using EEG.

(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to estimate string pressing positions of the solo part of the lead guitar using image processing technology. The proposed method consists of four phases: image rotation, creation of standard fingerboard image, guitar position detection, and estimation of the string pressing positions. The image rotation method consists of line detection and rotation of the image. The creation of standard fingerboard image consists of detection of frets and intersection detection of frets and strings. In the guitar position detection, the coordinates of the color marker which attach to the bridge and nut are detected.

(Summary)
Recent years, biological signals have attractedmuch attention as a tool of human interface. Electromyogram(EMG) has been used in a variety of situations in particular.Generally EMG of muscular volume arms or shoulders has been measured in many cases. In addition, expensive wet typesensors have been often used. However, they are inconvenientand high-cost.

(Summary)
Recent years, biological signals have attracted much attention as a tool of human interface. Electromyogram (EMG) has been used in a variety of situations in particular. Generally, EMG in muscular volume of arms or shoulders has been measured in many cases. In addition, expensive wet type sensors have been often used. However, they are inconvenient and high-cost. On the other hand, in hand motion recognition and personal authentication using wrist EMG, we have obtained good results. However, accuracy is poor when hand motion recognition and personal authentication are carried out at the same time. For the above reasons, we carry out hand motion recognition and personal authentication at the same time, and try to obtain higher accuracy than the previous research. The conventional method used EMG of movement Japanese Janken (Fig.1). We use a multi-input and multi-output model of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The average accuracy of hand motion recognition is 94.6%. The average accuracy of personal authentication is 95.0%. In this paper, we use a Wide Residual Network (WRN). The average accuracy of hand motion recognition is 97.8%. The average accuracy of personal authentication is 98.4%. In future work, we aim to improve accuracy by adjusting WRN parameters. In addition, we prepare a class not belonging to any class in multi-class classification.

(Summary)
As an alternative to voice, sign language and artificial larynx can be used. However, there are disadvantages where they require a long-term training and are expensive. Therefore, researches on detection of utterance by electromyography (EMG) analysis around the lips have beenconducted. On the one hand, it is necessary to construct a personal authentication system to identify speakers. The electrode used in this paper is 2 electrodes sensor, which is small in size and a dry type. Three sensors are attached in the orbicularis muscle, the zygomatic major muscle, and the depressor angle oris muscle which can acquire myoelectric information necessary for identification in Japanese vowelutterance. EMG signals are measured using P-EMG plus. In order to eliminate noises, signal cutting is carried out before and after the central point of the acquired raw data. Furthermore, EMG data are divided to increase the number of data while overlapping. These are named DATA 1. A Hamming window is then applied for them, and the amplitude values of the power spectra are calculated by fast Fouriertransform. Automatic verification and elimination of noise parts by quartile method were carried out. In order to reconstruct signals after noise elimination, the inverse Fourier transform is carried out and then a inverse Hamming window is applied. These are named DATA 2. Learning identification is carried out using a convolutional neuralnetwork. A large difference was found in accuracy dependingon the data set created separately by measurement date. Therefore, it was found that intra-individual variation by each subject was large. In the future, it is necessary to further improve the data and to reduce individual variation within each subject.

(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to check whether human understands contents of learning using electroencephalogram (EEG). The proposed method consists of three stages; EEG measurement, EEG feature extraction and EEG pattern classification. The EEG feature extraction method (stage) consists of three phases; frequency analysis, band division based on rhythm of brain activities and principal component extraction. The frequency analysis converts an original waveform of EEG into frequency components (bands). In the band division, frequency components were divided into five rhythms ( , Low-, High- , Low- and High- waves). In the principal component extraction, we calculate the first and the second principal components using the principal component analysis (PCA). In the EEG pattern classification, support vector machine (SVM) is used to classify EEG patterns based on PCA results. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments using real EEG data. The experimental results suggest that the most important sensing position to record EEG is F7 when checking whether he/she understands contents of learning using EEG.

(Summary)
In manufacturing industries, many working tasks require their workers to perform the works in push-pull activities. The workers need to push or pull the tool or material handling in a long distance in to a workplace and performing these activities continuously throughout the working hours, may lead to an early initiation of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) symptoms as workers developed muscle fatigue particularly concerning the hand muscles. Grip strength is the force applied by the hand to pull objects and is a part of hand strength. This paper is about the mathematical model of biomechanical factors that contributes to fa-tigue while worker involved on the push activities in manufacturing industry. The experimental was conducted by using Tekscan system to evaluate the muscle fa-tigue and hand grip pressure force while workers performing pushing excessive loads. The input parameters were time exposure, hand side and body mass index (BMI); while the output responses are muscle fatigue (voltage), hand grip pres-sure force (left hand), and hand grip pressure force (right hand). An important parameter that affects the output response is also identified. The finding result from mathematical model for both factors, show that the muscle fatigue was in-fluenced by time exposure, hand side, BMI, and interaction between hand side and BMI; while hand grip pressure force was influenced by time exposure, hand side, BMI, interaction between time exposure and hand side, interaction between time exposure and BMI, and interaction between hand side and BMI.

(Summary)
Driving fatigue has been recognized as one of the significant contrib-utor factor to the road accidents and fatalities in Malaysia. The aim of this study was to develop an ergonomic vehicle model (EVM) and decision support sys-tem (DSSfDF) model for improving the driving fatigue problem among the road users. The ergonomic vehicle model use to capture the user information data, and acts as the database storage to store all the input data and information. While the decision support system provide a systematic analysis and solution to minimize the risk and the number of accidents associated with driving fatigue. There are 6 main components as the pillars for the development of EVM and DSSfDF model; ergonomics evaluation tools, graphical user interface (GUI), ergonomics database, working memory, inference engine, and knowledge base. Both models are essential system and reliable advisory tool for providing analy-sis on risk factors that contribute significantly to driving fatigue, and providing solutions and recommendation to the problem related to driving fatigue. Further analysis and validation is required in future to get the reliable system before be-ing commercialize.

The measurement position to record the EEG is left frontal lobe (FP1). The gray association degree is used to extract the EEG feature. The support vector machine is used to detect human preference on sounds listened to. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct the experiments. In the experimental results, the mean of the accuracy rate of the favorite sound detection was higher than 88%.

Takashi Higasa, Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : A Method to Specify a Region of Character String in Augmented Reality, Proc. of the 5th IIAE International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Image Processing 2017, 25-30, Honolulu, Sep. 2017.
(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to input characters and/or character string in an augmented reality using gesture motion. The proposed method detects the region of character string using gesture motion. It consists of five phases; template generation, skin detection, hand region detection, gesture motion extraction and designation of character string region. The template image consists of two fingers because a gesture is to take hold the tips of the first and second fingers. In the skin detection, we extract the skin color on the basis of values in saturation by using threshold processing. The hand region is detected by calculating areas and detecting the area with the maximum value as a hand. The gesture motion is extracted using template matching. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments.

(Summary)
Recent years, biometrics authentication is receivingattention by development of information society. In thispaper, we propose a personal authentication system, whichuses behavior characteristics among biometrics. We focuson aerial handwritten signature, because it is difficult toforge it, and there is no risk of loss. In this paper, wemeasure signatures using Leap Motion Controller. It canmeasure three dimensional space coordinates with highaccuracy. We divide signature data into three axialdirections of coordinates XYZ in order to use them asone-dimensional data. We carry out preprocessing tosignature data and normalize them. Next, we use deeplearning based on a convolutional neural network forfeature extraction and identification. In this experiment, weprepare data obtained from six subjects. We obtain genuinedata of one subject. The remaining five subjects are used tocreate forgery data. We classify signature data into twoclasses. We conduct deep learning in which convolutionalneural network carries out 10,000 cycles learning in onetrial. We carry out this trial 5 times and evaluate meanaccuracy by cross validation for two types of genuine data.The average discrimination accuracy of this experiment are97.0 % and 95.9%. In addition, the false rejection rates are9.6% and 19.2%. The false acceptance rate are 0.8% and0.1%.

(Summary)
Recent years, biological signals have attracted muchattention as a tool of human interface. Electromyogram(EMG) has been used in a variety of situations in particular.We measure EMG of arms or shoulders in many cases. Inaddition, we often use expensive wet type sensors. However,they are inconvenient and high-cost. On the one hand, therehave been few works of personal authentication using EMG.Therefore, in this paper we measure EMG by attaching drytype sensors to wrist, and carry out personal authentication.The conventional method in this paper is divided into threeunits such as a measuring, a feature extraction, and adiscrimination units. We measure EMG signals with eightdry type sensors on the wrist. After that, we identify amotion opening our hands. We use a convolutional neuralnetwork (CNN) to learning and authentication. Wecollected 40 data for each subject. The average accuracy oftwo-class separation was 94.9 % by CNN. In addition to theconventional method, the proposed method in this paperpreprocesses the data. Large noise was removed using ahigh path filter. By this preprocessing, identificationaccuracy (Two-class classification using CNN) improvedby 1.5%. The true acceptance rate improved by 7.2%, andthe false acceptance rate improved by 0.0067%.

Ryousuke Takabatake, Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Japanese Vowels Recognition Using Linear Discriminant Analysis and Surface Electromyogram Measured with Bipolar Dry Type Sensors, Proc. of the 5th IIAE International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Image Processing 2017, 5-11, Honolulu, Sep. 2017.
(Summary)
This paper proposes a Japanese vowels recognition method using surface electromyogram (EMG). First, 3 sensors are used to measure surface EMG data at orbicularis oris muscle, zygomatic muscle and depressor angle oris muscle. Next, Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is applied to all measurement data to calculate power spectra. Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is then used for power spectra of 3 channels and reduce their dimension to 4. Finally, theresult of LDA is recognized by Support Vector Machine (SVM). In experiments, it is assumed that mounting sensors to face, measuring EMG, and demounting them are 1 trial. A subject utters 5 Japanese vowels 3 times. Among 3 trials data, 2 trials data are used to make templates and the remaining are used for test. The subject is a man in twenties. As a result, we obtained 62.3% average recognition accuracy. This result shows the proposed method is better about 2 times than the previous method.

(Summary)
In this paper we measure EMG by attaching dry type sensors to wrist, and carry out personal authentication. The proposed method in this paper is divided into three units such as a measuring, a feature extraction, a discrimination units. We measure EMG signals with eight dry sensors on the wrist. After that, we identify a motion opening our hands. We use a convolutional neural network (CNN) to learning and authentication. In addition, we try to use a multilayer perceptron for comparison. Experiments are conducted in two patterns. At first, we carry out two-class classification (the subject and the others). The second is multi-class classification in which the number of subjects is 8 people. We collected 40 data for each subject. The average accuracy of two-class classification was 89.4 % by the multilayer perceptron. That was 94.9 % by CNN. On the other hand, the average accuracy of multi-class classification was 41.2 % by the multilayer perceptron. That was 70.3 % by CNN. In future work, we will improve classification accuracy for two-class and multi-class classification. Futhermore, we try to identify multiple motions.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose a personal authentication system which uses behavioral characteristics among biometrics. We focus on aerial handwritten signature, because it is difficult to forge it, and there is no risk of loss. In this paper, we measured signatures using Leap Motion Controller. It can measure three dimensional space coordinates with high accuracy. We divide signature data into three axial directions of coordinates XYZ in order to use them as one dimensional data. We carry out preprocessing to signature data and normalize them. Next, we use deep learning based on a convolutional neural network for feature extraction and identification. Generally, it is necessary to learn a large number of data for deep learning. However, it is difficult to gather many learning data of forgery. Therefore, we transform learning data of forgery at the preprocessing, which generates many pseudo learning data of forgery. In this experiment, we prepare genuine data of nine persons and forgery data of each person. We classify signature data into ten classes. We conduct deep learning in which CNN carries out 10,000 cycles learning in one trial. We conduct this trial 1,000 times. The average discrimination accuracy of this experiment is 98.1 %. This result is better in accuracy than a related research. From the above, we think that the proposed method is useful for the aerial handwritten signature.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose a method which can discriminate hand motions. We measure an electromyogram of wrist by using 8 dry type sensors. We focus on four motions, such as ``Rock-Scissors-Paper'' and ``Neutral''. ``Neutral'' is a state that does not do anything. The proposed method extracts features of EMG by a convolutional neural network (CNN) and discriminate the motions by a support vector machine (SVM). In the CNN, we reduced the full connection layer by adding a convolution layer which has the same size filter of a feature map. CNN has an input layer, 6 convolutional layers, a pooling layer and a full connection layer. We conducted experiments with seven subjects. An average discrimination accuracy of the proposed method was 92.2 %. In the previous method, the discrimination accuracy rate was 76.9%. Therefore, the proposed method is better in accuracy than the previous method. In future work, we will discriminate more detailed hand motions.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose a method to detect and track mosquito by using orientation code, labeling, multi-templates matching and particle filter. The mosquito detection method employs an edge detection technique based on orientation code, a labeling technique to detect candidate areas of mosquitoes and multi-templates matching to detect mosquitoes. The particle filter is used to track the mosquitoes. The likelihood in the particle filter is calculated on the basis of the results of the multi-templates matching. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments using real image data. From experimental results, detection and tracking accuracies were 83.9% and 70.6%, respectively.

(Summary)
This paper proposes a vowels recognition method using electromyogram (EMG). 3 sensors are used to measure EMG data at orbicularis oris muscle, zygomatic muscle and depressor angle oris muscle. Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is applied to all measurement data and then principal component analysis (PCA) is used for phase spectra and power spectra of 3 channels.Finally, the result of PCA is recognized by k-nearest neighbor. In experiments, it is assumed that mounting sensors to face,measuring EMG, and demounting them are 1 trial. A subject utters 5 Japanese vowels 3 times. Among 3 trials data, 2 trialsdata are used to make templates and the remaining are used for test. The subject is a man in twenties. As a result, we obtained33% average recognition accuracy. As future tasks, the authors think it is necessary to change methods of decision of datarange, feature extraction, recognition and so on.

(Summary)
We propose a method which detects abandoned objects on online by using pan-tilt camera. Above all, we improve problems of the previous method which is based on ST-Patch features and human detection. We make extended ST-Patch features for solving the problem of ST-Patch features. We improve human detection by using deep learning which is based on a convolutional neural network. We conducted preliminary experiments to verify a method of pooling, and then we decided to use Max pooling because its detection accuracy is better than that of Ave booling. We conducted experiments in five situations to verify usefulness of the proposed method. If the proposed method finds an abandoned object, it saves the object image. We define the abandoned object as an object which human does not subsist near. We could detect the abandoned object in each situation. However, we conducted experiments of the proposed method only in a room. We need to conduct experiments in a wide area to find new problem.

(Summary)
In this study, we propose a method which can discriminate hand motions. We measured an electromyogram of wrist by using 8 dry type sensors. We focused on four motions, such as ``Rock-Scissors-Paper'' and ``Neutral''. ``Neutral'' is a state that does not do anything. In the proposed method, we apply fast Fourier transformation (FFT) to measured EMG data, and then remove hum noise. Next, we combine values of sensors based on a gaussian function. In this gaussian function, variance and mean are 0.2 and 0, respectively. After that, we apply normalization by linear transformation to the values. Subsequently, we resize the values into range from -1 to 1. Finally, support vector machine (SVM) conducts learning and discrimination. We conducted experiments in three subjects. Discrimination accuracy of the proposed method for three subjects was 96.9%, 95.3%, 92.2%, respectively. Therefore, we think that the gaussian function is robust to difference of sensor position because this function combines both adjacent channels.

(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to evaluate similarity of music by music features. A music feature extraction method consists of three phases; chord progression pattern detection, rhythm pattern detection and musical instrument information extraction. The music feature extraction is carried out by using frequency analysis. In the chord progression pattern, we employ three evaluation criteria. In the rhythm pattern detection, we evaluate beat per minutes(BPM) values. In the musical instrument information, we confirm results of musical instrument informationextraction visually. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct computer simulations of music features extraction.

(Summary)
In this study, we propose a method which can discriminate hand motions. We measured an electromyography of wrist by using 8 dry type sensord. We focus on four motions, such as "Rock-Scissors-paper" and "neutral". "neutral" is a state that does not do anything. In the proposed method, we apply fast Fourier transformation (FFT) to the measured EMG data, and then remove hum noise which are caused by AC power source. After that, we apply normalization by linear transformation to FFT spectra.. Finally, SVM learns 4096 data which are all data of 8 channels. an experiment of this study has a specific flow. Star of the experiment is to attach sensors, and the end of experiment is to detach the sensors. We regard this flow as 1 trial. In each trial, a subject conducted each motion 10 times. After the experiment, data of each motion are picked out from measured data, and then these data were used for learning and discrimination. Discrimination accuracy was 98.4%. However the subject of experiment was 1 person. Therefore, in future work we need to increase the number of subjects to validate versatility proposed method. In addition, our proposed method is offline now. Therefore, we will implement this method on online.

(Summary)
This paper presents an on-line recognition system of finger motions using wrist EMG (electromyogram) measured by dry-type electrodes attached to wrist and Simple-PCA. The Simple-PCA is an approximated version of principal component analysis and is very fast for eigenvector learning. Target behaviors to be recognized in this paper are four finger motions, which are the Janken (Rock-paper-scissors game) ``rock'', ``scissors'', ``paper'' and ``neutral (non-action)''. We tried to reduce an execution time by using the Simple-PCA in training and recognition, in the viewpoint of implementation of interface which can be utilized in daily life. The computational results show that the present on-line system can achieve high recognition accuracy similar to the conventional system using a neural network classifier.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose a method to detect impression evaluation patterns on music listened to using electroencephalogram (EEG) analysis method considering human personality. The proposed method consists of four phases; EEG recordings and EEG feature extraction, personality quantification, feature vector creation to detect the impression evaluation patterns, and impression evaluation patterns detection. The EEG feature is extracted by calculating the time average of the power spectrum of each frequency band at 1 Hz intervals of the EEG. Egogram, Yatabe-Guilford personality inventory and Kretschmer type personality inventory are using for quantifying his/her character. The feature vector to detect the impression evaluation patterns is created by the EEG feature and the results of his/her character quantification. We regard the matching patterns between music and his/her mood as the impression patterns on music listened to. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conduct experiments using real EEG data.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose a method of detection for aban- doned objects by a pan-tilt camera. The final purpose is to do online detection of abandoned objects by using the pan-tilt camera. First, we detects object domains by using ST-Patch features from an obtained moving image. We use these fea- tures to efficiently separate moving objects and background. Next, we focus on the object domains. We obtain a picture that was optically expanded by using zoom function. As a re- sult, we can take a clearer picture. After that, we detect these object domains as human or nonhuman by using HOG fea- tures and Real AdaBoost. The HOG features are converted into one-dimensional histogram corresponding to feature val- ues. Detection of human is carried out by Real AdaBoost using the histogram values. The other objects besides human are regarded as abandoned objects in this paper.

(Summary)
In this study, we define the scene in front of the vehicle as driving scene and aim at the classification of the driving scenes. Bag of Keypoints (BoK) is a technique often used in image classification. BoK's effectiveness has been shown in the field of object recognition.

(Summary)
In this paper, we analyze the relationship between near-miss events and saliency map. To analyze eye-gaze points of the driver for near-miss events which occur in the intersections, we use saliency map which models the human attention mechanism. We use an eye tracking system (faceLAB) to obtain eye-gaze data. We make target intersection time-series driving scene and made saliency map of the scene. Moreover, the saliency map is divided into three levels and we investigate how bicycle and background have saliency in the driving scene. Experimental result shows that the bicycle's saliency is expressed in the middle and high level maps. Next, we carry out experiments using faceLAB data in order to investigate driver's eye-gaze. From the experimental results, subject gaze to similar area when near-miss event did not exist. However, subjects tracked the bicycle when near-miss event occurred, and gazed carefully to the left or right in the intersection after near-miss event.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose a method in which pictures of security cameras are administered automatically. The administered target is lost property. In case of searching objects with security camera, there are infinitely various sizes and orientations of the object to be searched. Therefore we propose an object search method which is adapted to transformation of the object. We use a template matching using Genetic Algorithm (GA) for detection of lost property. Moreover GA is not necessarily suitable for local search problems. Therefore the local search technique using random search is included to improve GA property. Object search in our proposed method is divided into two parts, global and local searches. According to experimental results, in the global search, search accuracy is relatively good at experiments other than the specific images. However the local search fell short of our expectations. In the future, we need to improve the local search.

(Summary)
Recognition of eye motions has attracted more and more attention of researchers all over the world in recent years. In particular studies to make lives more convenient for patients as ALS who cannot move even their muscles expect eye have been actively done. Many kinds of eye motion recognition methods have been proposed, for example, using infrared to track pupil position, or using image processing technologies to find the pupil. However as they use either infrared or cameras, they may have some effect on the eye. Therefore, in our study, we use an EOG method to recognize eye motions: attaching wet disposable electrodes on the patients' face to obtain eye movement signals. Then Learning Vector Quantization algorithm is used to recognize each eye motion. Finally, corresponding recognition results to various mouse operations can be obtained. In our study, we recognized eye motions of rolling eyes upward, downward, rolling left, rolling right, diagonal eye motions which contain rolling up-left, rolling up-right, rolling down-left, rolling down-right ( the angle of the diagonal motion is 45°), blink, blink string of three times motion, left wink and right wink, in total 12 kinds of eye motions. The average recognition accuracy was over 98%. Using this recognition system, we achieved 8 direction cursor movements and double click action, scroll page upward and downward. This study would be used as a means of communication to help those patients as ALS. This system is implemented on a PC as the on-line system.

(Summary)
This study specifically examines safety verification behaviors and near-miss events at non-regulated intersection with poor visibility. Assessing the drivers physical information (i.e., eye-gaze movements and face orientation) and the sudden appearance of bicycles that the driver would encounter while approaching a non-regulated intersection, we attempt to analyze the causal relation of workload sensitivity and driving style and the distinctive motion of the safety verification behaviors before and after near-miss events.

(Summary)
In this paper, we analyze projected head positions of safety verification on the two-dimensional plane to clarify what head posture changes behavior are contained in the data. In this experiment, we consider the projected coordinate changes due to the presence or absence of hiyari-hatto events, and discuss the relation between the head position changes and the influence of hiyari-hatto event. From the experimental results, the driver becomes cautious after the event, and a change occurs in the safety verification behavior by becoming cautious.

(Summary)
In this paper, the objective is to propose a method to perform personal authentication from motion information signed in space obtained using the Kinect sensor. Biometrics authentication is one of the hottest authentication systems all over the world. It is high secure compared with other authentication systems. However, it has an issue that is generally expensive. Therefore, we propose an inexpensive biometrics authentication system by using the Kinect sensor. We can obtain hand positions easily because the Kinect sensor can obtain skeleton data quickly. Therefore, it is thought that we can develop a system to track a fingertip.

(Summary)
The objective of this study is to construct a personal identification system using face with high recognition performance. We define the high recognition performance as being robust to change of surroundings (light, angle, size, and so on). However it is difficult to achieve that with ordinary image processing methods. Therefore we use the Deep Learning method based on Convolutional Neural Network to achieve our objective. In this paper, we compare the pooling methods (max-pooling and average-pooling) as preliminary step of this study. The pooling is one of elements of Convolutional Neural Network. To simplify a problem, we carry out face recognition using face and object images.

(Summary)
In this paper we proposed a system that uses EOG-feature based methods and Learning Vector Quantization algorithm to recognize eye motions. According to the recognition results, we use API to control cursor movements. We recognized 12 eye motions. 8 directions motions correspond to 8 directions cursor movement in this system. Using this system we have obtained a high recognition accuracy of eye motions (The average correct detection rate on each subject was 97.8%, 97.6% and 92.7%). This EOG Mouse interface would be used as a means of communication to help those patients as ALS.
Takako Ikuno, Yohei Takeuchi, Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Abandoned Object Detection by Genetic Algorithm with Local Search, Proceeding of 2013 International Conference on System, Process, and Control, 113-116, Kuala Lumpur, Dec. 2013.
(Summary)
In this study, the objective is to propose a method in which pictures of security cameras are administered automatically. The administered target is abandoned objects. We use a template matching using Genetic Algorithm (GA) for detection of abandoned objects. GA is suitable for global search problems, but it is not suitable for local search problems. Therefore the local domain search technique is included to improve GA property. In GA, a chromosome is composed of the coordinates that locates a template image, and template image's scaling rate and rotation angle. In global domain search, the chromosome has the angle of 0 degree. Thresholds for a fitness function and the number of the generations to start the local domain search are set experimentally. In local domain search, the chromosome's scaling rate and rotation angle of the best individual are changed using a random search method. According to experimental results, detection accuracy is relatively good in the global domain search, but the local domain search is not so effective in some images. In future work, we try to improve the local domain search.

(Summary)
We analyze drivers head posture during safety verification at an unsignalized intersection with poor visibility and propose a method for classifying head posture using two types of unsupervised neural networks: Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs) and fuzzy Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART). The proposed method can generate the optimal number of cluster-generated labels for the target problem.

(Summary)
In this study, the objective is to propose a method in which pictures of security cameras are administered automatically. The administered target is abandoned objects. We use a genetic template matching method for detection of abandoned objects. In this case, it is necessary to match a whole target image using a template image and it is time-consuming. Therefore we use Genetic Algorithm (GA) with local domain search. GA mainly optimizes the coordinate by which a template image is located, although the size and orientation of the template are fixed for reduction of search time. In addition, those of the template image are charged by the local domain search. In the global domain search using GA, its detection accuracy is relatively good, but the local domain search is not so effective. To solve this problem, we try to improve the local domain search. For this purpose, the template matching of image size and orientation is improved using a deterministic process.

(Summary)
In this paper, we propose a method of searching abandoned objects based on spatiotemporal features. The final purpose is detection of the abandoned objects from public stationary camera.

The HOG features are converted it one-dimensional histogram of the corresponding values. We learn detection of human with Real AdaBoost by these values.

Using the new method we have obtained a high recognition accuracy of eye motions.

(Summary)
In the field of pattern recognition, feature extraction plays an important role prior to classification in order to filter out the background noise, reduce the dimensionality for input and so on. Fisher Linear Discriminant Analysis (FLDA) is well-known as one of the most famous feature extraction methods. In recent years, FLDA has been improved in various ways because an eigenspace is learned faster and/or the classification performance is improved. Simple-FLDA (SFLDA) has been proposed to speed up the learning by improving FLDA algorithm. However, the above methods are calculated in input space. Thus, it might not be efficient in cases where data distribution is complex. Then, Simple Kernel Discriminant Analysis (SKDA), which is an improved version of Kernel Discriminant Analysis (KDA), has been proposed to acquire a better performance for classification by applying kernel trick. Whereas a better performance is acquired by SKDA than that by SFLDA, its learning speed has increased instead. In this paper, an additional improvement is applied to SKDA algorithm and the improved version of SKDA (SIKDA) is introduced. The performance of SIKDA is as same as that of SKDA. In addition, learning speed has become faster than that by SKDA. These are shown in the experiment, especially, the influence of proposed method has seen in a specified dataset.

(Summary)
The electroencephalograms (EEGs) are a biological signal that represents the electrical activity of the brain. There is a tendency to quantify the human mind and its changes based on preference, feeling, and impression by analyzing electroencephalograms (EEGs) taken on the human scalp. Recently, it is expected that EEG will promote special man-machine interface. In this study we try to estimate human mind and emotion from EEG which becomes popular by development of measurement techniques and analysis of brain activity. In this paper, detection of frequencies, which expressly shows two tendencies to be distinguished while a human subject is in low and high concentration states, is carried out. The purpose of this study is to construct a tool for alternative decision with the frequency difference in two states. Two concentration states can be classified using specified frequencies measured when a human subject is in low and high concentration states. Severe disorders such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) make it hard for motion-impaired people to communicate with others by talking and writing. Therefore, support systems that can help them to establish communication can be constructed with less mental load by utilizing the analyzed data of this study.

(Summary)
Fisher Linear Discriminant Analysis (FLDA) is well-known as one of the most famous feature extraction methods in the research field of pattern recognition. In recent years, FLDA has been developed with various techniques to improve its effectiveness for classification, learning speed and generality for any problems. Simple-FLDA (SFLDA), which is a faster version of FLDA, has been proposed to extract features from input datasets in an efficient way. However, it is not always efficient in cases where the datasets are complex, because eigenvectors spanning an eigenspace are acquired in just the input space. In this paper, we proposed a new feature extraction algorithm derived by expanding SFLDA to a non-linear space for effective classification. The algorithm is constructed with just simple calculations, but it is capable of obtaining effective features. In some experiments, better classification accuracies have been acquired with a few specified datasets.

(Summary)
It is difficult to search for lost property in extensive grounds. Therefore, we often have to give up finding it out. To solve this problem, search methods using a security camera have been proposed. It is necessary to not increase the administrative burden when you search an object by using security cameras. In this study, we develop a system for searching an object from camera images automatically. When searching the object, we need to input appropriate information of the object to the system. In this paper, a ``hand-drawn rough sketch'' image is used for this purpose. The present system can identify the object by analyzing the object shape in the image.

(Summary)
This paper presents a new method to detect abandoned objects. Our approach consists of the following 5 steps; Dynamic background modeling by using the Gaussian mixture model based on features obtained by space-time patches, human region detection based on Support Vector Machine, movement region detection based on matching of regions histogram features, construction of region database from region features, and abandoned objects detection from the region database. The proposed method adds color information on the features obtained using dynamic background modeling to enhance the effectiveness of detection for an object that is assimilated into background. Experimental results prove the efficiency of our algorithm on PETS2006 and AVSS2007 benchmark data.

(Summary)
In this paper, we investigate an intra-speaker's variability using a specific speaker's speech data witch are collected over long time period. Especially, we investigate a relationship between a speech recognition performance and a distance calculated by dynamic programming matching algorithm (we called ''DP distance'' hereafter), and a time dif- ference of a speech recognition day and an acoustic model training day. From the investigation results, we can see that the intra-speaker's speech variability varies the recognition performance. Hence, for restricting the variation of speech recognition performances caused by intra-speaker's speech variability, we proposed an acoustic model selection method in this paper. The proposed method decides candidates of optimal acoustic model by using DP distance, and selects an optimal acoustic model by using likelihood. For evaluating the proposed method, we conduct speech recognition experiment using a male speaker's speech data collected over long time period. As a result, speech recognition accuracy of selected model by the proposed method is slightly degraded than that of the conventional method. However, the proposed method can select an optimal acoustic model with smaller calculation costs than the conventional method.

(Summary)
In the past, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Fisher Linear Discriminant Analysis (FLDA) and other feature analyses have been widely used as statistical techniques in pattern recognition. Furthermore, these techniques have been improved to extract better features for both classification and learning. For instance, Simple-PCA (SPCA) and Simple-FLDA (SFLDA) have been proposed to learn an eigenspace not only easier but also faster by iterative operations. However, the eigenspace by these feature extraction algorithms might not be adequate to every dataset, because these are linear feature extraction methods. In this paper, we propose a new Simple-FLDA algorithm applied Kernel method, which leads nonlinear feature extraction. Therefore, the proposed algorithm is simply constructed. In addition, kernel base vectors, which are projected from high-dimensional space to inner product space, are used for feature extraction. The same criterion for discriminant analysis is used by using these kernel base vectors. In the experiment, 10% better classification accuracy is acquired when one dataset has high dimensionality.

(Summary)
In pattern recognition, the principal component analysis (PCA) is one of the most famous feature extraction methods for dimensionality reduction of high-dimensional datasets. Furthermore, Simple-PCA (SPCA) which is a faster version of the PCA, has been carried out effectively by iterative operated learning. However, in SPCA, when input data are distributed in a complex way, SPCA might not be efficient because it is learned without class information of the dataset. Thus, SPCA cannot be said that it is optimal for classification. In this paper, we propose a new learning algorithm, which is learned with the class information of the dataset. Eigenvectors spanning eigenspace of the dataset are obtained by calculation of data variations belonging to each class. We will show the derivation of the proposed algorithm and demonstrate some experiments to compare the SPCA with the proposed algorithm by using UCI datasets.

(Summary)
In general, music retrieval and classification methods using music moods use a lot of acoustic features similar to music genre classification. These features are used as the spectral features, the rhythm features, the harmony features, and so on. In this paper, we propose a feature selection method for detecting music mood scores. In the proposed method, features which have strong correlation with mood scores are selected from a lot of features. Then, these are input into Multi-Layer Neural Networks (MLNNs) and mood scores are detected every mood labels. For evaluating the proposed method, we conducted the music mood score detection experiments. Experimental results show that the proposed method improves the detection performance compared to not use the feature selection.

(Summary)
In remote control, user interfaces are very important and it is desired that they have intuitive operability and be simple systems. However, presently, most of interfaces have not satisfied these needs. Therefore, we propose a simple interface to control mobile robots equipped with a camera by instructing it to move to a desired location using the image set to a screen. For the robot to control its movement, it needs to calculate the three-dimensional information of the instructed point. In this work, we calculate the three-dimensional position using motion stereo vision, and perform experiments using a wheeled mobile robot with a single camera in a real environment.

(Summary)
In previous work, we have proposed the automatic sensitive word score detection system for a user dependent music retrieval system. However, the user dependent method causes a lot of burdens to the user because the system requires a lot of data for adapting it to each user. Hence, in this paper, we propose an automatic sensitive word score detection method for a user independent music retrieval system and evaluate the proposed method using 225 music data. Experimental results show that 87.5% of music patterns succeeded in detection of sensitive word score in the case that the difference between estimated and evaluated score is 1 (Error 1 rate). Moreover, we conduct subjective evaluation experiments to evaluate the proposed method as a utility method. From this experiment, it is observed that the user satisfaction level of the proposed method is higher than random selection impression detection.

(Summary)
In recent years traffic fatality accidents caused by accidental driving are increasing. If it is possible to detect an inattentive state, not only reduction of traffic fatal accidents but also state monitoring of drivers for takeover in automatic operation is realized. In this research, we model driving behavior measured by a driving simulator based on GGM and sparse structural model. In addition, we discus usefulness of the generated driving behavior model.

(Summary)
The aimless driving is one of the most common cause of the traffic accidents. If we can detect a change of driver's behavior according to the aimless driving, the detection will achieve prevention of traffic accidents and safety takeover of autonomous driving. In this paper, we analyze a deference between normal condition and distracted condition by using sparse structure learning based on correlation of driver's information. We use eye gaze, face direction, heartbeat, vehicle velocity, acceleration, and tilt of handle. We analyze the change of driving information according to the visibility.

(Summary)
交通事故の主要因の一つは漫然運転であり,発生箇所が最も多いのは交差点である.ドライバが漫然運転をしている時,内部状態(注意散漫状態,焦り,眠気など)に変化があると考えられる.また,内部状態は車両前方の情景(運転シーン)の影響を受けると考えられる.つまり,運転行動を解析するためには運転シーンがどのような状況であるかを理解する必要がある.そこで,本研究では運転シーンの理解を目的とし,画像特徴量を用いた運転シーン分類について検討する.具体的には,運転シーン画像をBag of Keypoints(BoK)により表現し,分類器にサポートベクターマシン(SVM)を用いて直線区間と交差点を分類した.その結果,78.2%の精度で分類可能であった.

(Summary)
In this study, for non-regulated intersections with poor visibility, we focus on safety verification behaviors and near-miss events by cross over and sudden appearance of bicycles. By paying attention to time-series changes of face orientations and eye-gaze movements in before and after of near-miss events, we carry out the comparative analysis of safety verification behaviors and eye-gaze modes in distraction and driving concentration states.

(Summary)
This study aims to estimate drivers state using driving behaviors. In this paper, we set a bicycle near-miss event on driving simulator: sudden appearance of bicycle. We examine safety verification behaviors associated with near-miss events at nonregulated intersections with poor visibility. From an assessment of a drivers head movements associated with the sudden appearance of bicycle encountered while approaching a nonregulated intersection, we attempt to analyze the causal relation of the changes of frequency analysis results of safety verification behaviors before and after near-miss events.

(Summary)
We designed four running scenarios to control the weather (i.e.,sunny/rainy) and time (i.e.,day/night) using driving simulator. Moreover, we analyzed gaze timing using eye-gaze movement and face orientation for the sudden appearance of the bicycle. As a result, the timing discovering the bicycle differed according to weather and time. Therefore, we confirmed delay discovering the bicycle for a rainy day and nighttime when drivers feel to be a burden for searching routes.

Taiga Sogame, Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Discriminate H Motor Imaginations of Holding hands and Vocalization Using EEG, 電気学会・産業計測制御研究会, 55-60, Nov. 2020.
(Summary)
This paper proposes a method to discriminate motor imaginations of holding hands and vocalization. The proposed method consists of EEG measurement, EEG feature extraction, and motor imaginations classification. In EEG measurement, simple electroencephalograph is employed. In EEG feature, event-related synchronization (ERS) and event-related desynchronization (ERD) are extracted using fast Fourier transform (FFT). Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used to classify the motor imaginations of holding hands and vocation. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conducted experiments using real EEG data.
Takeru Oda, Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Development of EEG Personal Authentication System Considering the Effect of Caffeine, 電気学会・産業計測制御研究会, 41-46, Nov. 2020.
(Summary)
Changes in brain activity during caffeine intake are an issue for the spread of brain machine interface (BMI) devices to consumers. We attempt to develop an electroencephalogram (EEG) discrimination method considering the effects of caffeine. Also, this paper focuses on a personal authentication system based on EEG analysis technique. As a preliminary step to consider the influence of caffeine, this paper proposes a method to discriminate the presence or absence of caffeine and construct an authentication system. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conducted experiments using real EEG data.

Hironori Kadowaki, Shin-ichi Ito, Momoyo Ito and Minoru Fukumi : Gait Recognition using Gathered Images and Deep Learning, 電気学会・産業計測制御研究会, 27-31, Nov. 2020.
(Summary)
We propose a method to recognize the gait using gathered images and deep learning. The proposed method consists of preprocessing, gathered images creation, and identification. The gathered image is created by comparing brightness values from one steps walking images. This paper employs a convolutional neural network (CNN) to extract features for gait recognition and recognize a person using them. The CNN consists of an input, three hidden, a full-connection and output layers. The hidden layers have convolutional and pooling layers. The full-connection layer has a dropout layer. Finally, we conducted experiments for gait recognition.
