In recent years, computing and networking technologies have been developed, and the communication equipments have become smaller and the mobility has increased. In addition, the demand for easily-operated speech recognition has increased. This paper proposes method of recognizing the Korean phoneme 'ㅏ'. A phoneme is the smallest unit of sound, and it plays a significant role in speech recognition. However, the precise recognition of the phonemes has many obstacles since it has many variations in its pronunciation. This paper proposes a simple and efficient method that can be used to recognize a Korean vowel 'ㅏ'. The proposed method is based on the common features that are extracted from the 'ㅏ' waveform sequences, and this is simpler than when using the previous complex methods. The experimental results indicate that this method has a more than 90 percent accuracy in recognizing 'ㅏ'.

The goal of this paper is to propose the Hangul Jamo to make a optimum transmission code of Hangul consonant and vowel(Jamo). The Hangul Jamo was analyzed by three kinds of Hangul Jamo. First one is the basic Hangul Jamo which is consisted by 24ea Jamo. Second one is a two combination keyboard which has 28ea Jamo. Third one is 54 Jamo set which is added the double Jamo to the second one. Use frequency of Hangul-Jamo is analyzed based on the Hangul in "Modern Korean Use Frequency Rate Survey Result" issued by The National Institute of the Korean Language". Total 58,437 Korean words are contained in the report and the words are composed with Hangul 1,540ea. The results of this study are as follows, In the Jamo are that in the first Jamo set case, the highest use frequency consonant is "ㅇ" and the lowest one is "ㅋ", and in the vowel case, the highest use frequency one is "ㅏ" and the lowest one is "ㅑ". In the second case, the highest use frequency consonant is same as first case and the highest vowel is "ㅏ" and the lowest one is "ㅒ". In the third case, the highest consonant is "ㅏ" and the lowest one is "ㅞ". the highest vowel is "ㄱ" and the lowest one is "ㄽ".

본 연구의 목적은 한국에 존재하는 세 종류 파찰음/ㅈ,ㅊ, ㅉ/의 시간적.공간적 조음 특성을 전자구개도와 스펙트로그램 분석을 통하여 면밀히 검토해 보려는 것이다. 이를 위하여 두 실험이 행해 졌는데, 조음 음성학적인 실험(전자구개도를 이용한 실험)에는 한 명의 피험자가, 그리고 음향 음성학적인 실험(음향 자료의 스펙트로그램 분석)에는 세 명의 피험자가 발화한 자료가 이용되었다. 대상이 되는 세 자음들은 /ㅏ_ㅏ/, /ㅡ_ㅡ/, /ㅣ_ㅣ/ 등 세 모음 사이에서 발화되었으나, 모음이 자음의 조음에 미치는 영향, 즉 모음_자음 동시조음은 본 연구의 범위에서 제외되었다.

In order to examine the legibility of the Hangul letters which is a syllabic, the three kind of visual charts were made of the ninety eight($14{\times}7$) Hangul Gothic type letters by the laser printer. These Hangul letters were constructed with the 13 consonant letters which are 'ㄱ, ㄴ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅁ, ㅂ, ㅅ, ㅇ, ㅈ, ㅋ, ㅌ, ㅍ, ㅎ', and the 6 vowel letters which are 'ㅏ, ㅓ, ㅗ, ㅜ, ㅡ, ㅣ'. The two examination methods were used, One is the discriminating the letters on the visual chart by men having 1.5 visual acuity. The other is the using the laser printer's resolution. Obtained data by these examination methods are the minimum readable size values of the letters and the maximum readable distance values from the reader to the objects. From these data the relative legibility of the Hangul letters were calculated, where the letter ㄱ was chosen for the standard. This resultant data were analyzed. In this result, the mean legibility of these Hangul letters descended in the order of 'ㄱ, ㄴ, ㅅ, ㄷ, ㅈ, ㅇ, ㅁ, ㅋ, ㅌ, ㅍ, ㅎ' Which are the consonant letters being in these letters. And the mean legibility descended in 'ㅣ, ㅡ, ㅏ, ㅗ, ㅓ, ㅜ' order. The mean legibility is dependent on used consonant letter more then on used vowel.

It was found that the rapidly changeable consonant's conlponents of the Korean speech can not be analyzed precisely by the method of frequency analysis, but only by the method of frequency synthesis based on the speech pattern obtained from sona-graph. The following two methods mer mainly: One was to extract the frequency region of Consortarts, and the other was to observe how the mode of the Formant of the Korean Vowel, $\mid$ㅏ$\mid$, following after some consonants. changes both by the articulation manner and by the articulation position.

With the recent increase of the interest in IoT in almost all areas of industry, computing technologies have been increasingly applied in human environments such as houses, buildings, cars, and streets; in these IoT environments, speech recognition is being widely accepted as a means of HCI. The existing server-based speech recognition techniques are typically fast and show quite high recognition rates; however, an internet connection is necessary, and complicated server computing is required because a voice is recognized by units of words that are stored in server databases. This paper, as a successive research results of speech recognition algorithms for the Korean phonemic vowel 'ㅏ', 'ㅓ', suggests an implementation of speech recognition algorithms for the Korean phonemic vowel 'ㅣ'. We observed that almost all of the vocal waveform patterns for 'ㅣ' are unique and different when compared with the patterns of the 'ㅏ' and 'ㅓ' waveforms. In this paper we propose specific waveform patterns for the Korean vowel 'ㅣ' and the corresponding recognition algorithms. We also presents experiment results showing that, by adding neural-network learning to our algorithm, the voice recognition success rate for the vowel 'ㅣ' can be increased. As a result we observed that 90% or more of the vocal expressions of the vowel 'ㅣ' can be successfully recognized when our algorithms are used.

This study was done to analyze phonetic dysfunction and the effect of orthognathic surgery to phonation in the patients of mandibular prognathism. 20 persons were chosen as normal group and 20 patients of mandibular prognathism as abnormal for this study. 5 vowel sounds-'ㅏ(a)', 'ㅔ(e)', 'ㅣ(i)', 'ㅗ(o)', 'ㅜ(u)' and 14 consonant sounds-'ㄱ(g)', "ㄴ(n), 'ㄷ(d)', 'ㄹ(l)', 'ㅁ(m)', 'ㅂ(b)', 'ㅅ(s)', 'ㅇ(ng)', 'ㅈ(j)', 'ㅊ(ch)', 'ㅋ(k)', 'ㅌ(t)', 'ㅍ(p)', 'ㅎ(h)', were checked. We recorded these sounds in the period of preopration, postop. 12 months, postop. 24 months. A Formant ratio and a length of consonant time were studied with discriminant analysis. As a result of the study, the following conclusion were gained. 1. As a result of the analysis on vowel dysfunction patiensts of mandibular prognathism, more than 80% of men patients showed the dysfunction in prelingual sound 'ㅔ(e)' and 'ㅣ(i)'. More than 70% of women patients showed the dysfunction in all vowel. 2. One year later from the orthognathic surgery, men patients showed a marked improvement in 'ㅏ(a)'. The next were 'ㅗ(o)', 'ㅜ(u)' and 'ㅣ(i)'. Women patients showed a marked improvement in 'ㅜ(u)'. 3. Two year later from the orthognathic surgery, men patients showed a marked improvement in prelingual sound 'ㅔ(e)' and postlingual sound 'ㅗ(o)'. Women patients showed a marked improvement in 'ㅏ(a)'. More than 20% of patients showed the phonetic improvement compared with the condition of the postop. 12 months. 4. As a result of the analysis on consonant dysfunction patient of mandibular prognathism. more than 80% of men patients showed the dysfunction in lingual sound 'ㅅ(s)'. Most women patients showed the dysfunction in labial sound 'ㅁ(m)' and lingual sound 'ㄴ(n)'. More than 50% of patients showed the dysfunction in labial sound and lingual sound. 5. One year later from the orthognathic surgery. men patients showed a complete improvement in hard palatal sound 'ㅈ(j)'. The next were labial sound 'ㅂ(b)', lingual sound 'ㅅ(s)', soft palatal sound 'ㄱ(g)' and 'ㅋ(k)'. Women patients showed a marked improvement in soft palatal sound 'ㅇ(ng)' and 'ㄱ(g)'. 6. Two year later from the orthognathic surgery, all patients showed remarkable improvement in consonant sounds. except for labial sound 'ㅁ(m)', 'ㅍ(p)' and lingual sound 'ㄴ(n)'. The improvement ratio was increased as the time was going on compared with the condition of postop 12 months.

This study was performed to compare the characteristics of hydraulic conductivity such as relative conductivity(RC), leaf specific conductivity(LSC), Huber value(HV), specific conductivity(SC), and diameter of vessels(${\mu}m$) and number of vessels($No./mm^2$) in branch junctions of the twenty-one deciduous broad-leaved species. The hydraulic conductivities of branch junctions decreased with increasing junction angle between stem and branch, and with decreasing diameter of branch. The RC and LSC of branch junctions related to branching types(ㅏ, Y, ${\Psi}$ type) were much lower in ㅏ and ${\Psi}$ types than in Y type. The diameter and number of vessels remarkably reduced in branch junctions as compared with the stem and branch.

생물 ㅏ반응기의 생산성을 높이기 위해서는 반응기내의 미생물 농도를 높이는 것이 필요하다. 미생물 농도를 높이기 위한 한 방법으로써 막을 이용한 미생물 재순환에 대한 많은 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 이러한 연구들은 발효조 밖에서 막을 이용하여 미생물을 분리하여 다시 발효조 내로 순환시키는 방법이 주를 이루어 왔으나 이들은 공정이 복잡하고 고분자 합성막을 이용한 경우 고온 멸균의 어려움이 있는등 산업화하는데 여러가지 문제점을 가지고 있었다.
