음성인식 시스템의 입력인 음성은 실제의 음성부분 외에도 주변잡음을 포함한 기침 소리, 문닫는 소리, 책장 넘기는 소리등과 같은 사용자에 의해서 발생될 수 있는 다양한 종류의 비음성을 포함할 수 있다. 특히 에너지가 큰 비음성을 포함하는 경우 기존의 끝점검출 알고리듬만으로는 음성부분만의 정확한 검출이 어렵게 되고 이는 음성인식 시스템의 성능을 저하시키는 주요 원인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 음성 발생시 일어날 수 있는 비음성들에 대해서 조사하고 이러한 비음성이 포함될 때 음성부분만의 정확한 검출을 가능하게 하는 알고리듬을 제시하였다. 사용된 파라미터로는 자기상관법에 의해 얻어지는 피치정보와 웨이브렛 영역에서의 에너지로써 비교적 낮은 신호대 잡음비에서도 음성부 검출을 가능하게 하였다.

남극 40km 상공에서 고에너지우주선을 관측하는 CREAM(Cosmic Ray Energetics And Mass)실험은 2004년 CREAM I의 발사 및 운영을 시작으로 2010년 겨울 CREAM VI까지 성공적으로 그 관측 임무를 수행해 왔다. 이미 지난 모든 실험에서 검증된 두 개 층의 실리콘 입자 전하량 검출기(SCD)와 더불어 보다 정확하고 신뢰성 있는 결과를 얻기 위해, CREAM 검출기 최상단에 전 검출 영역을 커버하는 대면적의 Large-SCD를 추가로 장착하고자 한다. 이를 위해 2년간 420개 실리콘 센서, 5040채널로 이루어진 대면적 Large-SCD의 제작을 완료 하였으며, CERN 가속기 연구소에서 Beam 테스트를 마친 후 이미 메릴랜드 대학에서 최종 테스트 중이다. 이번 발표에서는 제작 된 Large-SCD와 이를 통해 기대되는 CREAM 실험에서의 우주선 성분 관측 정확도의 향상에 관하여 이야기 하고자 한다.

As the pulse heights from a NaI(Tl) detector vary with the temperature of the measuring environment a significant change in temperature may affect the energy calibration of the spectrometer. The auto-adjustment of the channel corresponding to a pulse heights can be achieved by introducing an external reference source to compensate the temperature dependency of pulse heights, but unfavorable increases of the Compton continuum are caused due to the external source. In this study, the total absorption peaks dominant in the typical environmental gamma spectrum-239 keV from $^{212}Pb$, 351 keV from $^{214}Pb$, 1460 keV from $^{40}K$ and 2614 keV from $^{208}Tl$ for examples - were used as reference in the correction of energy calibration. With these peaks, the program to calibrate the energy of the s spectrum was developed using Microsoft Visual Basic language. The program developed here was applied to the environmental spectra measured at intervals of 30 minutes in the temperature range of from $-20^{\circ}C$ to $10^{\circ}C$ to demonstrate the validity and applicability. As a result of the test, the correction scheme appeared to be effective in the temperature changes encountered in the usual environment.

In this paper, a new speech endpoint detection method in noisy environments for moving robot platforms is proposed. In the conventional method, the endpoint of speech is obtained by applying an edge detection filter that finds abrupt changes in the feature domain. However, since the feature of the frame energy is unstable in such noisy environments, it is difficult to accurately find the endpoint of speech. Therefore, a novel feature extraction method based on the twice-iterated fast fourier transform (TIFFT) and statistical models of speech is proposed. The proposed feature extraction method was applied to an edge detection filter for effective detection of the endpoint of speech. Representative experiments claim that there was a substantial improvement over the conventional method.

It is difficult to determine dosimetric characteristics for small field photon beams since such small fields do not achieve complete lateral electronic equilibrium and have steep dose gradients. Dosimetric characteristics of small field 4, 6, and 10 MeV photon beams have been measured in water with a diamond detector and compared to measurements using small volume cylindrical and plane parallel ionization chambers. Percent depth dose (PDD) and beam profiles for 6 and 10 MeV photon beams were measured with diamond detector and cylindrical ion chamber for small fields ranging from $1{\times}1\;to\;4{\times}4cm^2$. Total scatter factors($S_{c,p}$) for 4, 6, and 10 MeV photon beams were measured with diamond detector, cylindrical and plane parallel ion chambers for small fields ranging from $1{\times}1\;to\;4{\times}4cm^2$. The $S_{c,p}$ factors obtained with three detectors for 4, 6, and 10 MeV photon beams agreed well ($\pm1.2%$) for field sizes greater than $2{\times}2,\;2.5{\times}2.5,\;and\;3{\times}3\;cm^2$, respectively. For smaller field sizes, the cylindrical and plane parallel ionization chambers measure a smaller $S_{c,p}$ factor, as a result of the steep dose gradients across their sensitive volumes. The PDD values obtained with diamond detector and cylindrical ionization chamber for 6 and 10MeV photon beams agreed well ($\pm1.5%$) for field sizes greater than $4{\times}4\;cm^2$. For smaller field sizes, diamond detector produced a depth-dose curve which had a significantly shallower falloff than that obtained from the measurements of relative depth-dose with a cylindrical ionization chamber. For the measurements of beam profiles, a distortion in terms of broadened penumbra was observed with a cylindrical ionization chamber since diamond detector exhibited higher spatial resolution. The diamond detector with small sensitive volume, near water equivalent, and high spatial resolution is suitable detector compared to ionization chambers for the measurements of small field photon beams.

In this paper, we propose a simple technique for the detection of a frequency jump in the GPS clock behavior. GPS satellite atomic clocks have characteristics of a second order polynomial in the long term and a non-periodic frequency drift in the short term, showing a sudden frequency jump occasionally. As satellite clock anomalies influence on GPS measurements, it requires to develop a real time technique for the detection of the clock anomaly on the real-time GPS precise point positioning. The proposed technique is based on Teager energy which is mainly used in the field of various signal processing for the detection of a specific signal or symptom. Therefore, we employed the Teager energy for the detection of the jump phenomenon of GPS satellite atomic clocks, and it showed that the proposed clock anomaly detection strategy outperforms a conventional detection methodology.

This paper introduces the method for detect voices and exact end point at low SNR by maximizing voice energy. Conventional VAD (Voice Activity Detection) algorithm estimates noise level so it tends to detect the end point inaccurately. Moreover, because it uses relatively long analysis range for reflecting temporal change of noise, computing load too high for application. In this paper, the SEM-VAD (Speech Energy Maximization-Voice Activity Detection) method which uses psycho-acoustical bark scale filter banks to maximize voice energy within frames is introduced. Stable threshold values are obtained at various noise environments (SNR 15 dB, 10 dB, 5 dB, 0 dB). At the test for voice detection in car noisy environment, PHR (Pause Hit Rate) was 100%accurate at every noise environment, and FAR (False Alarm Rate) shows 0% at SNR15 dB and 10 dB, 5.6% at SNR5 dB and 9.5% at SNR0 dB.
