An array often has faulty elements in real operation. The faulty elements, producing no output or highly reduced gain than other normal elements, cause an elevated sidelobe level and fail to reject the interference signals in an adaptive beamformer. In this paper we have presented the beamforming algorithm for arrays with faulty elements. In the ideal case, an autocorrelation matrix computed from array output data is the toeplitz. However, the inverse of the autocorrelation matrix computed from array with faulty elements can not be obtained due to deficient values of matrix. To overcome this problem, an adaptive beamforming algorithm using the average values of the diagonal terms of matrix is proposed. The computer simulations have been performed to study the performance of the presented method. We have been able to solve the degrees-of-freedom problem that is the drawback of the previous subaperture processing technique.

Canonical correlation biplot is a useful biplot for giving a graphical description of the data matrix which consists of the association between two sets of variables, for detecting patterns and displaying results found by more formal methods of analysis. Nevertheless, when some values are missing in data, most biplots are not directly applicable. To solve this problem, we estimate the missing data using the median, mean, EM algorithm and MCMC imputation methods according to missing rates. Even though we estimate the missing values of biplot of incomplete data, we have different shapes of biplots according to the imputation methods and missing rates. Therefore we use a RMS(root mean square) which was proposed by Shin et al. (2007) and PS(procrustes statistic) for measuring and comparing the shape variability between the original biplots and the estimated biplots.

We present a method to improve the performance of the multi-channel Wiener filter in noisy environment. To build subspace-based multi-channel Wiener filter, in the case of single target source, the target speech component can be effectively estimated in the principal subspace of speech correlation matrix. The speech correlation matrix can be estimated by subtracting noise correlation matrix from signal correlation matrix based on the assumption that the cross-correlation between speech and interfering noise is negligible compared with speech correlation. However, this assumption is not valid in the presence of strong interfering noise and significant error can be induced in the principal subspace accordingly. In this paper, we propose to adjust the principal subspace vector using speech presence probability and the steering vector for the desired speech source. The multi-channel speech presence probability is derived in the principal subspace and applied to adjust the principal subspace vector. Simulation results show that the proposed method improves the performance of multi-channel Wiener filter in noisy environment.

Generalized linear mixed models are used to analyze longitudinal categorical data. Random effects specify the serial dependence of repeated outcomes in these models; however, the estimation of a random effects covariance matrix is challenging because of many parameters in the matrix and the estimated covariance matrix should satisfy positive definiteness. Several approaches to model the random effects covariance matrix are proposed to overcome these restrictions: modified Cholesky decomposition, moving average Cholesky decomposition, and partial autocorrelation approaches. We review several approaches and present potential future work.

We propose a very low complexity lattice reduction (LR) algorithm for MIMO detection in time varying channels. The proposed scheme reduces the complexity by performing LR in a block-wise manner. The proposed scheme takes advantage of the temporal correlation of the channel matrices in a block and its impact on the unimodular matrices during LR process. From this, the proposed scheme can skip a number of redundant LR processes for consecutive channel matrices and performs a single LR in a block. The simulation results investigated in this letter reveal that the proposed detection scheme requires only 43.4% multiplications and 17.3% divisions of LLL-LR and only 50.2% multiplications and 68.2% divisions of the conventional adaptive LR with almost no performance degradation.

This paper presents inference methods for inner operations of a multi-server queue when historical data are limited or system observation is restricted. In a queueing system analysis, autocorrelated arrival and service processes increase the complexity of modeling. Accordingly, numerous analysis methods have been developed. In this paper, we introduce an inference method for specific situations when external observations exhibit autocorrelated structure and and observations of internal operations are difficult. We release an assumption of the previous method and provide lemma and theorem to guarantee the correctness of our proposed inference method. Using only external observations, our proposed method deduces the internal operation of a multi-server queue via non-parametric approach even when the service times are autocorrelated. The main internal inference measures are waiting times and service times of respective customers. We provide some numerical results to verify that our method performs as intended.

The conventional calibration method for a noise figure analyzer is to use a noise source. This method is accompanied by a significant irregular ripple in the measurement results, because it does not consider the mismatch of the noise source and noise figure analyzer during calibration. A novel calibration method of the noise figure analyzer is proposed that considers the mismatch between the noise power and noise figure analyzer. A novel noise correlation matrix measurement technique using this method is also proposed. The method determines the noise correlation matrix and the gain of the uncorrected noise figure analyzer using uncorrected noise powers. Then, having determined the gain and noise correlation matrix, the effects of noise figure analyzers were corrected in the measurement results of the noise correlation matrix for the device under test (DUT). Through the proposed method, the measured noise parameters of a DUT showed the same degree of irregular ripples as the result of using the relative noise ratio.

본 논문에서는 probabilistic principal component analysis (PPCA)를 이용하여 extended maximum a posteriori (EMAP)에 기반한 화자적응 시스템의 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. PPCA는 각각의 hidden Markov model (HMM) 사이의 상관계수 행렬을 강인하게 예측하는데 적용된다. 이렇게 구한 상관계수 행렬은 화자적응 시스템에 사용된다. PPCA는 연산이 효율적이고, EMAP에서 기존에 사용되었던 방법에 비해 향상된 성능을 보여준다. 여러 차례의 음성인식 실험을 통하여, PPCA를 적용한 EMAP은 적은 양의 적응 데이타에서 좋은 성능을 보인다는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

본 논문은 수평적 시공간 부호화 기법(Horizontal Space-Time Coding)과 송수신단에 별도의 빔형성 기법을 결합한 JBSTC(Joint Beamforming Space-Time Coding) 구조에 대한 제안 및 동작원리를 기술하고 성능을 분석하였다. JBSTC는 MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Output) 송수신 시스템 채널 모델링을 기반으로 송신측 안테나간 상호 상관 행렬과 수신측 안테나간 상호 상관 행렬을 이용하여 송수신 빔형성기의 안테나 가중치들을 계산한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 JBSTC 방식은 송수신단에서 발생하는 안테나 간격과 각퍼짐에 따른 상호 상관 값을 효과적으로 보정함으로써 기존의 수평적 시공간 부호화 기법보다 우수함을 알 수 있다.
