Multiple space-time codes (M-STTC) is composed of several space-time codes. That provides high transmission rate as well as diversity and coding gain without bandwidth expansion. In this paper, the layered receiver structures employing whitening process for M-STTC is proposed. The proposed receiver is composed of the decoding order decision block and the layered detection block. The whitening process in the latter is utilized to maximize the receive diversity gain in the layered detection. The layered receiver employing whitening process has more diversity gain and advantage of the required number of receive antenna over the layered detection with MMSE nulling. The proposed scheme achieves a 5dB gain compared to the coded layered space-time processing at the FER of $10^{-2}$.

This paper proposes an improved system for recognizing facial expressions in various internal states that is illumination-invariant and without detectable rue such as a neutral expression. As a preprocessing to extract the facial expression information, a whitening step was applied. The whitening step indicates that the mean of the images is set to zero and the variances are equalized as unit variances, which reduces murk of the variability due to lightening. After the whitening step, we used the facial expression information based on principal component analysis(PCA) representation excluded the first 1 principle component. Therefore, it is possible to extract the features in the lariat expression images without detectable cue of neutral expression from the experimental results, we ran also implement the various and natural facial expression recognition because we perform the facial expression recognition based on dimension model of internal states on the images selected randomly in the various facial expression images corresponding to 83 internal emotional states.

The carbonate rocks of the Daegi Formation are composed of the limestone at the upper and lower zones, and the dolomite at the middle zone, in which the upper zone has higher CaO content than others. The colors of carbonate rock in the Daegi Formation can be divided into five types; white, light brown, light gray, gray, and dark gray. The white to light gray colored rocks correspond to the high purity limestone with 53.15 ~ 55.64 wt. % CaO, and the light brown colored rocks contain 20.71 ~ 21.67 wt. % MgO. The bleaching of carbonate rocks are not related to CaO composition of the rocks, as light gray rocks tend to be higher in CaO content than those of the white rocks at the lower zone. The pelitic components are also occasionally increased in white limestone than light grey one. $Al_2O_3$ is one of the most difficult content to remove during hydrothermal processes, so the interpretation that the limestone is purified together with hydrothemral bleaching, has little merit. The wide range (over 16 ‰) of ${\delta}^{18}O_{SMOW}$, smaller variation (within 2 ‰) of ${\delta}^{13}C_{PDB}$ are apparent in both the upper and lower zones, which indicate the Daegi Formation had been affected overall by hydrothermal fluids. The K-Ar isotopic age of hydrothermal alteration in the GMI limestone mine is $85.1{\pm}1.7Ma$. Gradual change from grey through light grey to white limestone is accompaned by lower oxygen stable isotope values, which is major evidence that the hydrothermal effect is the main process of the bleaching. Although the Daegi Formation has suffered from hydrothermal activity and increase in whiteness, there is no clear evidence demonstrating the relationship between bleaching and high purity of limestone. The purification of limestone has nothing to do with the hydrothermal activity in this area. Instead, it should be considered that the change of sedimentary environment related to see-level fluctuation which can prevent deposition of pelitic components especially $Al_2O_3$ contrbuted to the formation of the high purity limestone in the upper zone of the Daegi Formation. Considering the evidences such as increase in CaO content of limestone by depth, gradual change from calcite to dolomite at the lower zones, and occurring the high purity limestone at the upper zone, the interpretation of sequence stratigraphic aspect to the formation of the high purity Daegi limestone appears to be more suitable than that of hydrothermal alteration origin.

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm for speech enhancement of speeches corrupted by colored noise. When there is no correlation between colored noise and speech signal, the colored noise turns into white noise through whitening transformation. This transformed signal has been applied to the generalized subspace approach for speech enhancement. The speech spectral distortion, produced by the whitening transformation as pre-processing, has been restored by using the inverse whitening transformation as post-processing of the proposed algorithm. The performance of the proposed algorithm for speech enhancement has been confirmed by computer simulation. The colored noises used in this experiment were car noise and multi-talker babble. It is confirmed that the proposed algorithm shows better performance from SNR and SSD viewpoint over the previous approach with the data from the AURORA and TIMIT data base.

This paper proposes a new l₁-norm-Recursive Least Squares (RLS) algorithm which is numerically more robust than the conventional l₁-norm-RLS. The l₁-norm-RLS was proposed by Eksioglu and Tanc in order to estimate the sparse acoustic channel. However the algorithm has numerical instability in the inverse matrix calculation. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm which is robust against the numerical instability. We show that the proposed method improves stability under several numerically erroneous situations.

In this paper, we propose a residual echo and noise reduction scheme for hands-free telephony applications. The proposed algorithm uses a noise robust modified AP algorithm which estimate well echo path in noisy and whitens residual echo signal using linear prediction at non double-talk duration. It is confirmed that the proposed algorithm shows better performance from acoustic interference cancellation (AIC) viewpoint.

열 두 명의 피험자가 안정상태 일 때, 백색 소음에 노출되었을 때, 백색 소음 하에서 기억과제에 주의를 기울일 때, 백색 소음 하에서 기억 검사를 받을 때, 기록된 뇌파에 대해 relative power spectrum 분석을 하였다. 뇌파는 전두, 측두, 후두 영역에서 단극 유도법으로 기록되었다. 분석 결과, 백색 소음에만 노출되었을 때나, 백색 소음 하에서 기억과제에 주의를 기울일 때나 비슷한 전기피질(electrocortical) 반응이 나타났다. 즉, delta power의 증가, 알파 blocking, fast beta power의 증가, 스트레스를 일으킨다고 피험자들이 평정한 배색 소음 하에서 기억검사를 받을 때에도 동일한 뇌파 패턴이 나타났지만 그 크기가 유의하게 컸다. 정보를 지각할 때 전형적으로 나타나는 반응을 유발하는 스트레스원에 수동적으로 노출되었을 때("intaki"상황)의 생리 반응과 스트레스 상황에 적극적으로 대처할 때("rejection")의 생리 반응을 구분하는 이론 틀 아래서 데이터를 해석하였다. 스트레스 후 기간에 대부분의 뇌파 변수들이 기저선 수준으로 회복된 것으로 보아 사용한 스트레스 유발 모델은 단기적 스트레스 반응만을 유발한 것으로 보인다. 이는, 더 장기적으로 지속되는 스트레스원을 사용하게 되면, tonic상태의 전기피질 반응이 나타날 것을 시사한다.기피질 반응이 나타날 것을 시사한다.

This paper presents a statistical analysis of the MSE of adaptation for the MPDSAP (Maximally polyphase decomposed Subband Affine Projection) algorithm for the an autoregressive (AR) inputs with P order. In subband structure, the Affine Projection (AP) algorithm is transformed to the Normalized Least Mean Square (NLMS) algorithm by applying the polyphase decomposition and the noble identity to the adaptive filter. And also, AR input can be pre-whitened by subband filtering with the Orthonormal Analysis Filters(OAF). In the subband structure, the pre-whitening of the AR(P) inputs provides simple and valid approximations for a statistical analysis of the MSE behaviors for the SAP adaptive filter.

In this paper, we propose a noise whitening decision feedback equalizer for single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) receivers. SC-FDMA has the same advantage as that of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) in which the multipath effect can be removed easily, and also solves the problem of high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) which is the main drawback of OFDMA. Although SC-FDMA is a single carrier transmission scheme, a simple frequency domain linear equalizer (FD-LE) can be implemented as in OFDMA, which can dramatically reduce the equalizer complexity. Moreover, some residual intersymbol interference in the output of the FD-LE can be further removed by an additional nonlinear decision feedback equalizer (DFE) in time domain, because the time domain signal is a digitally modulated symbol. In the conventional DFE, however, the noise is not white at the input of the decision device and correspondingly the decision is not optimum. In this paper, we propose an improved DFE scheme for SC-FDMA systems where a linear noise whitening filter is inserted before the decision device of the conventional DFE scheme. Through computer simulations, we compare the bit error rate performance of the proposed DFE scheme with the conventional equalizers.
