Noise is generated by several causes, when signal is processed. Hence, it generates error in the process of data transmission and decreases recognition ratio of image and speech data. Therefore, after eliminating those noises, a variety of methods for reconstructing the signal have been researched. Recently, wavelet transform which has time-frequency localization and is possible for multiresolution analysis is applied to many fields of technology. Then threshold-and correlation-based methods are proposed for removing noise. But, conventional methods accept a lot of noise as an edge and are impossible to remove the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and the impulse noise at the same time. Therefore, in this paper we proposed new wavelet-based algorithm for reconstructing degraded signal by noise and compared it with conventional methods.

국내 지형의 대부분을 차지하고 있는 산지 사면에서 토양수분량 측정은 물순환을 이해하는데 중요하다. 본 연구는 국토교통부의 기초수문자료 구축사업의 일환으로 수행되었으며, TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry, TDR)방식의 장비를 이용하여 2시간 간격으로 토양이 동결되어 있는 기간을 제외한 2016년 3월 중순부터 12월초까지 측정을 수행하였다. 관측지점은 설마천 유역 내에 위치한 경기도 파주시 적성면의 감악산 범륜사 주변 산지 사면과, 청미천 유역 내에 위치한 충청북도 음성군 수레의산 산지 사면에 위치하고 있다. 각각의 관측소에서 측정된 토양수분량 자료는 분포 특성을 파악하기 위해 토양수분량의 통계분석(평균, 표준편차)을 수행하였다. 2016년 토양수분량 관측소 운영기간 동안에는 2014년, 2015년보다 많은 강우량이 발생하였다. 또한 강우 패턴이 과거와는 다르게 가을철 많은 강우량이 발생하였다. 설마천 유역에 위치한 설마천 토양수분량 관측소의 경우 2016년 평균토양수분량이 13.7%, 표준편차 6.3%로 2015년(평균 12.9%)보다 큰 특성을 보였다. 청미천 유역에 위치한 청미천 토양수분량 관측소에서도 2016년 평균토양수분량이 24.5%, 표준편차 5.0%로 2015년 (24.3%)보다 증가하였다. 설마천 관측소보다 청미천 관측소의 토양수분량 특성이 크게 나타나는데 이는 청미천 관측소가 설마천 관측소에 비해 유효토심이 깊고 토성의 점토 함량이 상대적으로 높기 때문으로 판단된다.

Vertical falling liquid film is extensively used in heat and mass transfer processes of many applications, such as evaporative coolers, cooling towers, and absorption chillers. In such cases, it is required that the falling film spreads widely in the surface forming thin liquid film to enlarge contact surface. An addition of surface active agent to a falling liquid film or hydrophilic surface treatment affects the fluid physical properties of the film. Surfactant addition not only decreases contact angle between the liquid and solid surface but also changes the surface from hydrophobicity to hydrophilicity. In this study, the effects of contact angle on falling film characteristics over a vertical surface have been investigated experimentally. The contact angle is varied either by an addition of surfactant to the liquid or by hydrophilic surface treatment. It is found that the wetted area is increased and film thickness is decreased by the hydrophilic treatment as compared with those of other surfaces. With this hydrophilic treatment, the falling liquid film spreads out widely in the surface. As surfactant concentration is increased, wetted area is also increased and the film thickness is substantially decreased.

The present study investigated the effect of heat treatment process on the surface wettability of an Al-Si-Mg alloy. After solution-treated at $525^{\circ}C$ and aged at $160^{\circ}C$, the alloy showed high hardness due to the formation of precipitates. In addition, surface wettability was improved in such a way that the contact angle of distilled water droplet on the flat surface decreased to $37.6{\sim}42.1^{\circ}$ after the heat treatment. The surface energy predicted by Owens-Wendt equation also confirmed the increase of surface energy after the heat-treatment. However, when the surface roughness increased, the positive effect of the heat treatment on wettability diminished due to the geometrical factors of the rough surface.

Dialog system is becoming a new dominant interaction way between human and computer. It allows people to be provided with various services through natural language. The dialog system has a common structure of a pipeline consisting of several modules (e.g., speech recognition, natural language understanding, and dialog management). In this paper, we tackle a task of domain classification for the natural language understanding module by employing machine learning models such as convolutional neural network and random forest. For our dataset of seven service domains, we showed that the random forest model achieved the best performance (F1 score 0.97). As a future work, we will keep finding a better approach for domain classification by investigating other machine learning models.

Mechanical energy can be harvested by triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) from biological and environmental systems. In wearable electronics, TENG has a lot of significance as biomechanical energy can be harvested from the motion of humans, which is applied in vibrational sensors. Wearable TENG is prone to moisture and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an excellent hydrophobic material used in these applications. The presence of highly electronegative fluorine atoms leads to very low surface energy. At the same time, the performance of the device increases due to the efficient capture of the electrons on the microporous membrane surface. This similar behavior occurs with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) due to the presence of fluoride atoms, which is relatively less as compared to PTFE.

인공지능 시대에 들어서면서 개인 맞춤형 환경을 제공하기 위하여 사람의 감정을 인식하고 교감하는 기술이 많이 발전되고 있다. 사람의 감정을 인식하는 방법으로는 얼굴, 음성, 신체 동작, 생체 신호 등이 있지만 이 중 가장 직관적이면서도 쉽게 접할 수 있는 것은 표정이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 정확도 높은 얼굴 감정 식별을 위해서 Convolution Block Attention Module(CBAM)의 각 Gate와 Residual Block, Skip Connection을 이용한 Identity- CBAM Module을 제안한다. CBAM의 각 Gate와 Residual Block을 이용하여 각각의 표정에 대한 핵심 특징 정보들을 강조하여 Context 한 모델로 변화시켜주는 효과를 가지게 하였으며 Skip-Connection을 이용하여 기울기 소실 및 폭발에 강인하게 해주는 모듈을 제안한다. AI-HUB의 한국인 감정 인식을 위한 복합 영상 데이터 세트를 이용하여 총 6개의 클래스로 구분하였으며, F1-Score, Accuracy 기준으로 Identity-CBAM 모듈을 적용하였을 때 Vanilla ResNet50, ResNet101 대비 F1-Score 0.4~2.7%, Accuracy 0.18~2.03%의 성능 향상을 달성하였다. 또한, Guided Backpropagation과 Guided GradCam을 통해 시각화하였을 때 중요 특징점들을 더 세밀하게 표현하는 것을 확인하였다. 결과적으로 이미지 내 표정 분류 Task에서 Vanilla ResNet50, ResNet101을 사용하는 것보다 Identity-CBAM Module을 함께 사용하는 것이 더 적합함을 입증하였다.

Acoustic OFDM is used for audible frequency band acoustic communication which employs loudspeaker as transmitter and microphone as the receiver antenna. Since acoustic OFDM can transmit about 1 kbps using 1600 Hz band. acoustic OFDM signal is inserted into the audio signal like music or speech, However. audio quality deteriorates definitely during the inserting process. This paper introduces a reason for audio quality deterioration and discuss how to reduce this phenomenon.
