The present invention provides a screen baseball system including a pitching machine that shoots a baseball, a screen, having a screen hole through which the baseball passes, and a screen shutter including a safety screen configured to close the screen hole. The present invention can fundamentally prevent a safety incident from occurring during a screen baseball game.

Screen baseball system including screen shutter

Disclosed is an integrated screen baseball platform may include: a mobile character promotion game module that generates ability score information of a character, which has been promoted through a mobile character promotion game, by improving an ability score of the character; a PC management game module that generates management information of a baseball team by executing a PC management game through a user PC; and a screen baseball system that receives management the character ability score information and the management information of the baseball team and adjusts the level of difficulty of a screen baseball game by using any one thereof.

Provided are a method and an apparatus for tagging a photograph with information. The method of tagging a photograph with information, which calculates a shooting position of an input image from reference images having shooting position information to tag the shooting position information, includes: selecting a plurality of reference images; calculating a relative shooting position of the input image to the shooting positions of the reference images; calculating the shooting position of the input image on the basis of the calculation result of the calculating; and storing the shooting position and shooting direction information on the input image in an exchangeable image file format (EXIF) tag of the input image.

Method for geotagging of pictures and apparatus thereof

Disclosed herein is a method for emotion recognition based on a minimum classification error. In the method, a speaker's neutral emotion is extracted using a Gaussian mixture model (GMM), other emotions except the neutral emotion are classified using the Gaussian Mixture Model to which a discriminative weight for minimizing the loss function of a classification error for the feature vector for emotion recognition is applied. In the emotion recognition, the emotion recognition is performed by applying a discriminative weight evaluated using the Gaussian Mixture Model based on minimum classification error to feature vectors of the emotion classified with difficult, thereby enhancing the performance of emotion recognition.

Method for emotion recognition based on minimum classification error

Provided is an apparatus for recognizing an activity of daily living (ADL). The apparatus includes a radio frequency identification (RFID) reader for reading the information of an RFID tag to recognize a motion object, a motion detector attached on a moving subject for acquiring acceleration information and recognizing a motion characteristic, and a controller for receiving information on the motion object from the RFID reader and information on the motion characteristic from the motion detector and then recognizing an ADL.

Apparatus and a method for recognizing an activity of daily living

A method for obtaining a glassless image is disclosed. The image processing method comprises the steps of (a) receiving an RGB color frontal facial image; (b) extracting candidates of eye regions from the received RGB color frontal facial image; (c) determining an exact eye region out of the candidates and normalizing the received RGB color frontal facial image; (d) extracting a glasses frame region by using color information contained in the received RGB color frontal facial image and edge information of a glasses frame; (e) performing an RGB-HSI transformation on the normalized frontal facial image; (f) generating H', S&#x2032;, and I&#x2032; glassless compensated images; (g) obtaining R&#x2032;, G&#x2032;, and B&#x2032; compensated images by performing an HSI-RGB transformation on the H&#x2032;, S&#x2032;, and I&#x2032; glassless compensated images; and (h) creating a glassless final color facial image on the basis of the R&#x2032;, G&#x2032;, and B&#x2032; compensated images.

Image processing method for removing glasses from color facial images

A stereo disparity between a reference image and a search image for a reference pixel in the reference image is determined by (a) calculating a similarity measure between a reference window including a set of pixels centering on the reference pixel and each of a group of search windows in the search image which is of a same shape with the reference window and displaced from the reference window within a predetermined search range, wherein a matching pixel count, which is the number of pixels in the reference window which are similar in intensity to corresponding pixels in a search window, is used as the similarity measure between the reference window and the search window; and (b) determining a displacement between the reference window and a search window which yields a largest similarity measure as the stereo disparity for the reference pixel.

Method and apparatus for measuring similarity using matching pixel count

An apparatus and method for detecting a moving object in a sequence of color frame images is provided. The apparatus comprises a color normalizer for normalizing color components of the color frame image to produce a normalized frame image; a color transformer coupled to the color normalizer for color transforming the normalized frame image to a color transformed frame image; the color transformed frame image having intensity levels such that colors corresponding to said moving object are emphasized; a frame delay coupled to the color transformer for delaying the color transformed frame image by one frame; and a motion detector coupled to the color transformer and the frame delay for detecting the motion of the moving object and further intensifying the intensity levels of the color transformed frame image based on the detected motion.
