| 20080273766 | FACE RECOGNITION SYSTEM AND METHOD BASED ON ADAPTIVE LEARNING - A face recognition system based on adaptive learning includes a specific person detection and tracking unit for detecting and tracking a specific person from a moving image. A facial feature extraction unit extracts a plurality of facial feature vectors from the detected and tracked specific person. A face recognition unit searches for a given registration model by comparing the extracted facial feature vectors with facial feature vectors of the registration models previously stored in a user registration model database. A learning target selection unit selects a facial feature vector to be added to a record of the given registration model from among the extracted facial feature vectors. A registration model learning unit adds and updates the selected facial feature vector to the record of the given registration model. | 11-06-2008 |

The movement error detecting method includes: detecting movement of the wheels in a sensor part according to a movement command input to a drive motor, and outputting an actual output value from the sensor part; calculating an ideal output value for output from the sensor part as the wheels are moved according to the movement command; and comparing the actual output value with the ideal output value to determine and residual fault and detect movement errors. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090254501 | WORD-SPACING CORRECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD - A word-spacing correction system and method are provided to automatically recognize and correct errors in the spacing of word inputs in an electronic device with relatively low computing power. In a learning process, probability information about each feature is created from a corpus of correct words, and then error correction rules are created by applying the probability information to a corpus of incorrect words from which all spaces between words of the corpus of correct words are removed. In an applying process, word-spacing in a user's input sentence is corrected by applying the probability information and the error correction rules to the user's input sentence. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090254819 | SPELLING CORRECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MISSPELLED INPUT - A spelling correction system and method automatically recognizes and corrects misspelled inputs in an electronic device with relatively lower computing power. In a learning process, a misspelling correction dictionary is constructed on the basis of a corpus of accepted words, and context-sensitive strings are selected from among all the strings registered in the dictionary. Context information about the context-sensitive strings is acquired. In an applying process, at least one target string is selected from among all the strings in a user's input sentence through the dictionary. If the target string is one of the context-sensitive strings, the target string is corrected by use of the context information. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090271038 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MOTION CONTROL OF HUMANOID ROBOT - A system and method for motion control of a humanoid robot are provided. The system includes a remote controller for recognizing three-dimensional image information including two-dimensional information and distance information of a user, determining first and second reference points on the basis of the three-dimensional image information, calculating variation in angle of a joint on the basis of three-dimensional coordinates of the first and second reference points, and transmitting a joint control signal through a wired/wireless network. The system also includes a robot for checking joint control data from the joint control signal received from the remote controller and varying an angle of the joint to move according to the user's motion. | 10-29-2009 |

| 20100202693 | Apparatus and method for recognizing hand shape in portable terminal - A portable terminal is configured to recognize an image such as a hand shape. The portable terminal includes a motion detection unit that includes a trainer capable of generating uniform training image data to collectively generate a plurality of images of a desired region obtained from an original image in an identical posture and an identical size, and performing a training process to prevent a feature point from being generated in a portion where detection is unnecessary in the generated training image data, and a detector capable of detecting a rotated object from input data, after the training process. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100245241 | Apparatus and method for controlling functions of mobile terminal - A portable terminal includes an apparatus for controlling an operation of a mobile terminal. More particularly, an apparatus and a method sets a menu to control a mobile terminal in a specific region of an image stored in advance. A relevant function is performed by selecting the specific region of the image in which the menu has been set in the mobile terminal, thereby performing the relevant function fast and conveniently without separately selecting a menu (entering a menu). The apparatus includes a controller. The controller selects a specific region from an output image, sets a menu for controlling a function of the mobile terminal at the specific region, and stores the image where the menu has been set. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100315485 | Method and apparatus for controlling output level of voice signal during video telephony - A method and apparatus controls an output level of a voice signal for video telephony by considering the distance between a user and a terminal and surrounding noises. An input image signal and an input voice signal of the user to be used for the video telephony are received at the user's terminal. A received image signal and a received voice signal received from the other party's terminal to which the video telephony is connected, are output on the user's terminal. The user's face region included in the input image signal is extracted. A size information of the extracted face region is checked. A distance information about a distance from the user is checked using the size information. And an output level of the received voice signal is controlled based on the distance information. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20100329511 | Apparatus and method for detecting hands of subject in real time - An apparatus and method can effectively detect both hands and hand shape of a user from images input through cameras. A skin image detecting skin regions from one of the input images and a stereoscopic distance image are used. For hand detection, background and noise are eliminated from a combined image of the skin image and the distance image and regions corresponding to actual both hands are detected from effective images having a high probability of hands. For hand shape detection, a non-skin region is eliminated from the skin image based on the stereoscopic distance information, hand shape candidate regions are detected from the remaining region after elimination, and finally a hand shape is determined. | 12-30-2010 |
