* RESEARCH TOPICS - IMAGE PROCESSING [#z6671e8f]
** Introduction [#jbcaa68f]
> Human beings usually recognize a person and a thing judging from an eye without being conscious.~
However, what will you do to let a computer and a robot perform this structure?~
For this problem, we aim at the application to the field of welfare and security system in this laboratory and, perform research activities.~
** Study field [#a3a1cb83]
*** Personal recognition by the face image [#kd034681]
> We think that we use a human face for the personal certification of the security system.~
If a partner is a human being, so-called "face pass" works, but it is not a simple thing for the computer.~
We aim at the realization of the strong system which a certification error is hard to occur.
*** Sign-language recognition [#f81db0ac]
> We aim at the construction of a system assisting smooth communication with a hearing handicapped person and the healthy people.

*** Sign language animation image synthesis [#uc5b2a22]
> This is a study to translate the input sentence into sign language, and to generate the animation image.~
This study is effective for interface construction to aim at smooth communication with a hearing handicapped person and the healthy people.
*** Lip animation image synthesis [#b570c1aa]
> This is a study to generate an animation image which move a lip in accordance with sentence which we input.~
We can expect application to the movement designs of the character of the CG.~

*** Lipreading [#o8978afd]
> This is a study to let a computer perform so-called lipreading.~
We can expect application in the field of welfare.~
