Development of Multi-Source Active Meta Learning and Its Applications

Deep learning has achieved excellent results in various industries, but there is a burden of learning with a large amount of data. Meta-learning, learning to learn, is a methodology that can overcome this problem. It is a learning methodology that enables better generalization of new task with only a small amount of data, through series of learning processes on multiple tasks. The goal of this research is development of active meta-learning technology to improve the generalization performance of meta-learning models and application in various fields using a small amount of data.

  1. Development of a task augmentation technique to improve the generalization performance of meta-learning models
  2. Development of active meta-learning methodology for high-quality task sampling
  3. Development of domain adaptation technique for active meta-learning based on multi-source
  4. Multisource-based active meta-learning application using unlabeled data

A Study on Meta-Learning models and Its Applications for integrated Analysis of Heterogeneous Big Data

Along with the production of big data from a variety of sources, the demand for analysis of big data from different sources is gradually increasing. However, not many cases have been suggested yet for the deep learning based analysis of heterogeneous big data. Accordingly, this study proposes a deep learning based heterogeneous big data analysis model. The goal of this research is development of meta learning models and it’s application methodology for integrated analysis of heterogeneous big data. To achieve this goal, we develop various learning models based on k-shot learning, transfer learning, generative adversarial model, and methods for enhancing learning efficiency based on reinforcement learning. In addition, we develop dataset for heterogeneous big data integrated analysis research, study heterogeneous big data analysis model based on meta-learning, and develop original technologies that can be applied to various problems such as cross-modal retrieval and multi-modal classification and recommendation.

Deep Learning

Development of an object recognition model available for a small accelerator by using convolutional neural networks

In the object recognition area, various models are proposed based on convolutional neural networks, and the performance is also updated every year. However, most object recognition models currently open to the public have a large number of hidden layers in terms of the structure of the neural network, and the number of nodes in each layer and the number of parameters are basically required to be many millions of operations. In this assignment, we implement the AlexNet object recognition model and study the processing such as creation, storage, and transformation of learned connection parameters. We also research a more efficient object recognition model based on the combined-product neural network and find efficient ways to reduce the number of parameters and the size of the neural network while maintaining similar accuracy. Through such research, it is expected that the deep learning based object recognition system will be applied to a small embedded system such as a mobile device.

Big Data

A study on semi-supervised learning model for big data and its application

Although there have been many researches on supervised learning and unsupervised learning methods in existing studies on the analysis of data streams, there are not many cases in which the data are actually commercialized and distributed. In particular, classification is performed while adapting to the concept change without labeled data There were few companies that commercialized a model of semi-supervised learning that could be done. Using the classification method of data stream developed in this study, it is possible to solve the problem of concept variation in which characteristics change with time. Also, reliance on labeled training data is reduced and can be practically applied to commercial systems.

AR & Recommender System

Development of Augmented Reality Technology for Mobile Devices to Promote Advertising

Augmented Reality(AR) is a technique of superimposing virtual objects on the real world seen by the user. It is also referred to as mixed reality (MR) because the virtual worlds with additional information in real time are combined into one image. By allowing users to immerse themselves in a virtual environment, they can see the real environment and provide better realism and additional information. For example, if you shine a smartphone camera around you, information such as the location of a nearby shop, phone number, etc. will be displayed as a stereoscopic image. Remote medical diagnosis, broadcasting, architectural design, and manufacturing process management. Recently, smart phones have become widely used and commercialized. Game and mobile solutions industry, and education. In this research and development project, we implemented augmented reality system through synthesis of 3D dance avatar and real world by using smart phone as terminal device, introduced personalized recommendation system, and integrated real time mobile Developed an advertising platform.

Expert System

Self-led E-training service technology development for car maintenance training 

Expert system is a system designed to accumulate experts’ expertise, experience and know-how in the computer so that they can have the same or better problem solving ability as the expert. The expert system firstly describes the characteristics of the problem, identifies the basic concepts expressing knowledge, and determines the structure and performance of the knowledge through the process of determining the structure for organizing knowledge. Expert systems are applied to fields requiring human intellectual abilities, including medical diagnostics, equipment failure diagnostics, stock investment decisions, production scheduling, automotive fault diagnosis, effective job placement, material procurement schedules, and management planning is. In this project, we develop virtual reality based training system for basic principles training and operation principle training for standard car model and develop self – directed cooperative learning training model based on logical model.
