The present study examined whether sentence perception scores were changed under various conditions of time alteration (compression and/or expansion) and selective word stress in normal hearing listeners. Twenty young normal hearing adults (ten males) were participated. As stimuli, Korean standard-sentence list for adults (KS-SL-A) modified to semantically anomalous sentences was newly recorded by a female speaker. Seven different time-altered conditions (e.g., ${\pm}60%$, ${\pm}40%$, ${\pm}20%$, 0 %) were controlled. To see the effect of selective word stress (i.e., the emphasis of specific syllables in the sentence), all subjects were tested twice 2 weeks apart. The results showed 1) there was significantly different sentence perception scores among the different time-altered conditions, yet only in the 60 % compression condition; 2) there was no significant difference of the sentence perception scores in the effect of stress; however, there was a positive effect of the selective word stress in the sentences consisting of 6 ~ 7 syllables at the 40 % compression condition; 3) there was no significant gender difference. The pattern of results suggests that the combination of time compression and selective word stress is more effective to understand speech, instead of only using time expansion condition. However, further studies should be needed for standardization.

The development of Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM), which is a highly flowable material, has been performed for the application of backfill. The objective of this study is to compare the compressive strength and compressive wave velocity of CLSM according to the curing time. To investigate the characteristics of the CLSM consisting of sand, silt, water, flyash, and CSA cement, uniaxial compression test and flow test were carried out. For the measurement of compressional waves, a cell and a couple of transducers were used. The test results show that the compressive strength increases with the curing time, while the increment of compressive strength decreases with the curing time. In addition, the compressive wave velocity increases with the curing time, and the correlation between the compressive wave velocity and compressive strength is similar to exponential function. This study suggests that the correlation between the compressive wave velocity and compressive strength may be effectively used for the estimation of compressive strength of the CLSM at early curing time.

본 논문은 방대한 크기의 볼륨 데이타를 효율적으로 렌더링하기 위한 셀 기반 웨이브릿 압축 방법을 제시한다. 이 방법은 볼륨을 작은 크기의 셀로 나누고, 셀 단위로 웨이브릿 변환을 한 다음 복원 순서에 따른 런-길이(run-length) 인코딩을 수행하여 높은 압축율과 빠른 복원을 제공한다. 또한 최근 복원 정보를 캐쉬 자료 구조에 효율적으로 저장하여 복원 시간을 단축시키고, 에러 임계치의 정규화로 비정규화된 웨이브릿 압축보다 빠른 속도로 정규화된 압축과 같은 고화질의 이미지를 생성하였다. 본 연구의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 {{}} 해상도의 볼륨 데이타를 압축하여 쉬어-？ 분해(shear-warp factorization) 알고리즘에 적용한 결과, 손상이 거의 없는 상태로 약 27:1의 압축율이 얻어졌고, 약 3초의 렌더링 시간이 걸렸다.Abstract This paper presents an efficient cell-based wavelet compression method of large volume data. Volume data is divided into individual cell of {{}} voxels, and then wavelet transform is applied to each cell. The transformed cell is run-length encoded according to the reconstruction order resulting in a fairly good compression ratio and fast reconstruction. A cache structure is used to speed up the process of reconstruction and a threshold normalization scheme is presented to produce a higher quality rendered image. We have combined our compression method with shear-warp factorization, which is an accelerated volume rendering algorithm. Experimental results show the space requirement to be about 27:1 and the rendering time to be about 3 seconds for {{}} data sets while preserving the quality of an image as like as using original data.

According to the rapid advance of computer and communication techniques, the request of mobile internet services is highly increasing. However, the main obstacles for mobile vector map service environments, are large data volume and narrow wireless bandwidth. Among the many possible solutions, spatial data compression technique may contribute to reduce the load of bandwidth and client response time. This thesis proposes two methods for spatial data compression. The one is relative coordinates transformation method, and the other is client coordinates transformation method. And, this thesis also proposes the system architecture for experiments. The two compression methods could be evaluated the compression effect and the response time.

Generally, compression and encryption procedures are performed independently in lossless image compression and encryption. When compression is followed by encryption, the compressed-stream should have the property of randomness because its entropy is decreased during the compression. However, when full data is compressed using image compression methods and then encrypted by encryption algorithms, real-time processing is unrealistic due to the time delay involved. In this paper, we propose to combine compression and encryption to reduce the overall processing time. It is method decomposing gray-scale image by means of quadtree compression algorithms and encrypting the structural part. Moreover, the lossless compression ratio can be increased using a transform that provides an decorrelated image and homogeneous region, and the encryption security can be improved using a reconstruction of the unencrypted quadtree data at each level. We confirmed the increased compression ratio, improved encryption security, and real-time processing by using computer simulations.

Most mobile devices use a NAND flash memory as their secondary memory. A compressed code of the firmware is stored in the NAND flash memory of mobile devices in order to reduce the size and the loading time of the firmware from the NAND flash memory to a main memory. In order to use a demand paging properly, a compressed code should be decompressed very quickly. The thesis introduces a new dictionary based compression algorithm for the fast decompression. The introduced compression algorithm uses a different method with the current LZ method by storing the "exclusive or" value of the two instructions when the instruction for compression is not equal to the referenced instruction. Therefore, the thesis introduces a new compression format that minimizes the bit operation in order to improve the speed of decompression. The experimental results show that the decoding time is reduced up to 5 times and the compression ratio is improved up to 4% compared to the zlib. Moreover, the proposed compression method with the fast decoding time leads to 10-20% speed up of booting time compared to the booting time of the uncompressed method.

가상 메모리 관리에서 가장 근 문제점은 느린 보조기억 장치의 속도와 빠른 주기억장치의 속도 차이에서 나타나는 성능 저하라고 할 수 있다 요구 페이징 기법에서 Page Fault가 일어나면 페이지 교체 정책에 의해 필요 없는 page들을 swap device로 이동을 시킨다. 이때 느린 보조기억장치의 접근 속도로 인한 응답시간의 지연은 전체적인 시스템 성능의 저하를 초래한다. 그래서 Swap Device로의 접근 횟수와 페이지의 크기를 줄일 수 있다면 Page Out되는 응답시간을 높일 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 가상 메모리 압축 시스템을 설계하여 Swap Out 되는 시간을 줄여 시스템의 전체적인 성능 향상을 위한 시스템을 구현한다.

In this study, the setting time and compressive strength of cement paste composites applied with nano-micro pozzolanic binders were experimental analyzed. The pozzolanic binder was reduced initial and final setting time and the compressive strength was increased. Micro silica was effective in decrease the initial setting and final setting time and impressing the compressive strength. When two or more cement binders were used, the using of silica fume and a small amount of nano silica at reduced the setting time to 62-64 % to OPC cement and the compressive strength was increased to 117 %. A small amount of mixing the nano silica was effect to pore filling and pozzolanic activation. However, the addition of a chemical admixture should be considered when mixing table design because pozzolanic binders high specific surface area causes a decrease in cement composites flow.

For The Purpose of Pursuing the Simplest Sampling, a Motion Compensated Block Compressed Sensing with Smoothed Projected Landweber (MC-BCS-SPL) has been Studied for an Effective Scheme of Distributed Compressive Video Sensing with all Compressed Sensing (CS) Frames. However, Conventional MC-BCS-SPL Scheme is Very Simple and so it Does not Provide Good Visual Qualities in Reconstructed Wyner-Ziv (WZ) Frames. In this Paper, the Conventional Scheme of MC-BCS-SPL is Modified to Provide Better Visual Qualities in WZ Frames. That is, the Proposed Agorithm is Designed in such a way that the Reference Frame may be Adaptively Selected Based on the Temporal Correlation Between Successive Frames. Several Experimental Results show that the Proposed Algorithm Provides Better Visual Qualities than Conventional Algorithm.
