20090106820 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USER AUTHENTICATION BASED ON ODOR RECOGNITION - A system for a user authentication includes an odor sensor unit for sensing an odor of a user's body to generate an odor biometric information vector, and a learning unit for performing an initial learning using the odor biometric information vector to generate a comparative odor biometric information vector. An authentication unit performs the user authentication by comparing an odor biometric information vector of the user's body to be authenticated from the odor sensor unit with the comparative biometric information vector if the user authentication is required. The authentication unit further performs an incremental learning of the comparative odor biometric information vector using the odor biometric information vector used in the authentication to create an incrementally learned odor biometric information vector. The comparative odor biometric information vector is updated with the incrementally learned odor biometric information vector. | 04-23-2009 |
20090112852 | USER MANUAL SUPPORTING METHOD AND APPARATUS USING ERROR PATTERN ANALYSIS - A user manual supporting method for use in an electronic appliance includes converting a series of operations performed by the user to operate the electronic appliance and converting the operations into a pattern of user operation sequence, and checking if an error is present in the pattern of user operation sequence to retrieve a pattern of erroneous operation sequence corresponding to the pattern of user operation sequence having the error. Thereafter, a manual content associated with the pattern of erroneous operation pattern is extracted and the extracted manual content is provided to the user. The manual content the manual content includes text and/or graphics information for notifying the user of a missing operation in the pattern of user operation sequence, or for guiding a normal operation against the pattern of erroneous operation sequence. | 04-30-2009 |
20100157022 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPLEMENTING MOTION CONTROL CAMERA EFFECT BASED ON SYNCHRONIZED MULTI-IMAGES - A method of implementing a motion control camera effect includes: inputting images of an object captured at one or more points of view; inputting a control parameter containing a motion control camera effect to be applied to the input images, a target time of the motion control camera effect, and a reproducing speed; extracting frames of the target time from the input images; processing the frames using software based on the control parameter; and outputting the processed frames at the reproducing speed. The motion control camera effect includes at least one of a motion control camera effect for a fixed viewpoint still object, a motion control camera effect for a fixed viewpoint moving object, a motion control camera effect for a free viewpoint still object, a motion control camera effect for a free viewpoint moving object, and a dual motion control camera effect. | 06-24-2010 |
20100158354 | METHOD OF CREATING ANIMATABLE DIGITAL CLONE FROM MULTI-VIEW IMAGES - The present invention relates to a method of creating an animatable digital clone includes receiving input multi-view images of an actor captured by at least two cameras and reconstructing a three-dimensional appearance therefrom, accepting shape information selectively based on a probability of photo-consistency in the input multi-view images obtained from the reconstruction and transferring a mesh topology of a reference human body model onto a shape of the actor obtained from the reconstruction. The method further includes generating an initial human body model of the actor via transfer of the mesh topology utilizing sectional shape information of the actor's joints, and generating a genuine human body model of the actor from learning genuine behavioral characteristics of the actor by applying the initial human body model to multi-view posture learning images where performance of a predefined motion by the actor is recorded. | 06-24-2010 |
