Decision-making is very complicated especially when the problem is in multiobjective problem. To learn decision making through play a game is an interesting thing. Player plays a game but actually, he or she learns about how to make a decision. In this research, the objective is to make Non-Player Character (NPC) for business game for electrical power production. This NPC is developed with 2 stages, the first stage is multiobjective optimization problem that uses NSGA2 method. This stage results some optimal solutions. The second stage is clustering that uses FCM method and FLVQ method to decrease number of solutions. In this stage, we compare these methods.","PeriodicalId":284743,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference of Soft Computing and Pattern Recognition","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132121578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This non-contact method may present an alternative to allow the surface defect to be measured rapidly and with an acceptable accuracy. One of the most promising of the non-contact methods in terms of speed and accuracy is the computer vision technique. This paper basically defines a surface defect characterization using contour dispersion. The basic idea of this research is to find an optimal gray-level threshold value for separating objects of interest in an image from the background based on their gray-level distribution using contour dispersion level to find the characteristic of surface defect. Next, the research direction has been suggested to develop an automatic polishing robot system using vision sensor based on surface defect characterization.","PeriodicalId":284743,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference of Soft Computing and Pattern Recognition","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133124922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 90 images are used as the training images and 45 images are tested in the grading process. Overall, automated grading using RGB digital numbers produced an average of 49% success rate, while the neuro-fuzzy approach achieved an accuracy level of 73.3%.","PeriodicalId":284743,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference of Soft Computing and Pattern Recognition","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127336924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, a correction mechanism is proposed to preserve the histogram of the cover image and make it resistant against histogram-based attacks. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, several experiments on gray-level images are carried out and compared with two prominent methods called Jsteg and Steganography Based on Predictive Coding (SBPC). The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves an efficient trade-off among imperceptibility, hiding capacity, compression ratio and robustness against malicious attacks.","PeriodicalId":284743,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference of Soft Computing and Pattern Recognition","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132496620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The investigation was conducted in 45 test cases using five web user session datasets extracted from a real world web site. The experimental results of these methods are compared with the results obtained from the traditional k-means clustering method. Some interesting observations have been made. In the most of test cases under consideration, the PSO and PSO-RVM methods have better performance than the k-means method.

The removal of these tissues leaves an image containing various regions of interest. For training ANN these distinctive regions of interest were clustered into their respective regions by employing KMeans algorithm. Then a neural net work is trained on this classified data which eventually facilitated in obtaining the desired segments. The boundaries of these segments were detected and the pixels constituting these boundaries were counted. For validating the segments produced by ANN, ground truth segments were taken under consideration. The boundaries of these ground truth segments were also detected and pixels forming the edges of these segments were counted. Finally a comparison was drawn between the pixel counts of ANN produced segments and ground truth segments. On the basis of this comparison, accuracy of ANN is calculated.","PeriodicalId":284743,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference of Soft Computing and Pattern Recognition","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123395401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
