음성 합성 시스템의 한 모듈로서 한국어 문자열을 음소열로 자동 변환하는 시스템을 구현하였다. 문자열을 음소열로 변환할 때에는 한국어 음운현상에 대한 체계적인 분석 과정이 필요하다. 한국어의 음운 변화 현상은 단일 형태소 내부와 여러 형태소가 결합하여 한 어절을 이루는 경우 그 형태소 경계, 그리고 어절 경계에서 서로 다른 음운규칙이 적용된다. 따라서 언절이나 문장 등의 입력을 음소열로 변환하기 위해서는 형태소 분석, 태깅작업이 반드시 수행되어야 올바른 발음열을 유도할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 시스템은 한국어의 형태음운현상을 반영하기 위해 형태소 분석을 선행한 후, 한국어에서 빈번하게 발생하는 음운 변화 현상의 분석을 통해 정의된 음소 변동 규칙과 변이음 규칙을 선택적으로 적용하여 형태소, 어절, 언절 또는 문장 등의 다양한 형태의 입력에 대해 발음열을 생성한다. 기존의 연구에서 분리되어 있던 형태소 태거와 변환시스템을 통합하여 사용자 편의성을 높였으며 텍스트 기반의 형태소 분석기를 사용하기 때문에 원형이 복원되는 형태소들에 대한 처리 루틴을 두어 오류를 감소 시켰다.

The current study has developed an in-house 3D FEM code in order to model thermoacoustic problems in an annular system and compared the acoustic field calculation results with measured ones from a benchmark combustor. From the comparison of calculation results with the measured data, the current acoustic code could successfully capture the various acoustic mode found in the annular system. In addition, it was found that the transverse waves in the combustor were strongly affected by the nozzle acoustic impedances, as well, the pressure distributions were closely related with the combustor acoustic pressure field.

본 논문에서는 기존의 DPCM에 의한 압축방법보다 더 낮은 비트율을 갖는 압축방 법을 제안한다. 각 화소의 예측오차 값은 DPCM방법에 의해 양자화되고, 양자화된 예측오차 의 열은 예측오차의 학습된 열로 구성된 코드북과 비교된다. 비교과정은 벡터양자화 방법과 동일하고, 그 결과 코드북의 주소를 생성한다. 제안된 방법은 DPCM과 동일한 복원 영상의 화질을 보이지만, 더 낮은 비트율을 얻을 수 있다.

This paper reviews the state-of-the-art thermoacoustic(TA) modeling techniques and research trend to predict major parameters determining combustion instabilities in lean premixed gas turbine combustors. Linear TA modeling results give us an information on eigenfrequencies and initial growth rate of the instabilities. For the prediction, linear relation equation between acoustic waves and heat release oscillations should be derived in the determined system. Key information for this analysis is to determine the heat release fluctuations in the combustor, which is typically obtained by using n-${\tau}$ function from flame transfer function measurements and/or predictions. Great advancement in the linear TA modeling has been made over a couple of decades, and some successful prediction results have been reported in actual gas turbine combustors. However nonlinear TA model developments which are required to analyze nonlinear system behaviors such as limit cycle saturation and transition phenomena are still limited in a very simple system. In order to fully understand combustion instabilities in a complicated real system, nonlinear flame dynamics and acoustic wave interaction with nonlinear system boundary conditions should be explained from the nonlinear TA model developments.

A loud speaker-driven zero-c.o.p. thermoacoustic refrigerator where an automotive catalytic converter is utilized as a stack has been fabricated and investigated experimentally. Without any heat exchangers at both ends of stack(and thus with zero c. o. p.), temperatures on the stack are measured and various heat transfer rates are calculated from the measured temperatures. Temperatures on the stack have been also calculated numerically using a finite difference method. The measured temperatures are in fair agreement with the calculated temperatures for lower frequency than 300Hz, however, the former deviates from the latter considerably for higher frequency. Two types of c. o. p. have been defined as appropriate to the experiment. While the nominal c. o. p. is zero(the condition in which the pumped heat flow rate in the pore exactly cancels the axial heat conduction down the stack), the true c. o. p. is found to be about 0.14 for 300Hz from the experiments.

Among various clean energy technologies, the solar energy technology has been widely used in various fields such as photovoltaic power generation and solar water/space heating. These days, special attention is drawn on its conversion into acoustic energy along with waste heat as a means to promote clean energy utilization. This work was carried out to investigate the possibility of converting solar energy into acoustic waves, especially, its performance characteristics for a single resonance tube (20.2 mm in ID). Variations are made for the stack length and its position as well as power supply. For a resonance tube of 200mm, an average sound pressure of 114.5 dB was measured with a stack length of 25.6mm at 5cm from the closed end. When the power supply was increased to 35W, an average sound pressure of 117.29 dB was detected with a frequency of 500Hz. There was an increase in frequency, 630 Hz (115.7dB), with a shorter resonance tube of 150mm.

This paper proposes an algorithm for estimating positions of array elements placed on a sea floor using acoustic signal in multipath ocean environment. The positions of array elements are estimated by using the travel times of m-sequence signal influenced by the multi-paths environment. The horizontal distance between source and receiver calculated based on the ray model. The proposed paper the algorithm is verified by both simulation data and field experiment in the Bast Sea.

음성인식에서 발화검증은 비인식대상어휘(OOV)를 기각시키고, 인식대상어휘라도 오인식 가능성이 높은 결과를 기각시키는 기술을 말한다. 본 논문에서는 혼동가능성 높은 숫자쌍들이 존재하는 한국어 연결 숫자 인식에서 발화검증 결과로 숫자열 기각시 오인식 가능성이 높은 숫자열을 그냥 기각시키는 대신에 대체오류를 수정하여 인식성능을 향상시키고자 하였다. N-best decoding 결과에 따르면 $2^{nd}\;best$ 나 $3^{rd}\;best$안에 대부분의 제대로 된 인식결과들이 포함된다. 따라서, N-best decoding을 이용해, 숫자열 기각시 $2^{nd}\;best$ 숫자열로 대체된 것이라고 가정한 후, 개별숫자 log likelihood ratio(LLR)과 N-best 기반의 숫자열 LLR[3] 등을 함께 고려한 신뢰도 측정방식에 의해 그 가정이 맞다고 판단이 되면 $2^{nd}\;best$ 의 숫자열과 대체함으로써 부분적으로 오류를 수정하였다.

An investigation on nondestructive evaluation of thermal stress-nduced damage in the composite laminates (3mm in thickness and $[+45_6/-45_6]_s$ lay-up angles) has been performed using the thermo-acoustic emission technique. Reduction of thermo-AE events due to repetitive thermal load cycles showed a Kaiser effect. An analysis of the thermo-AE behavior determined the stress free temperature of composite laminates. Fiber fracture and matrix cracks were observed using the optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and ultrasonic C-sean. Short-Time Fourier Transform of thermo-AE signals offered the time-frequency characteristics which might classily the thermo-AE as three different types to estimate the damage processes of the composites.
