This paper proposes a non-intrusive speech quality estimation method considering the effects of packet loss to perceptual quality. Packet loss is a major reason of quality degradation in a packet based speech communications network, whose effects are different according to the input speech characteristics or the performance of the embedded packet loss concealment (PLC) algorithm. For the quality estimation system that involves packet loss effects, we first observe the packet loss of G.729 codec which is one of narrowband codec in VoIP system. In order to quantify the lost packet affects, we design a classification algorithm only using speech parameters of G.729 decoder. Then, the degradation values of each class are iteratively selected that maximizes the correlation with the degradation PESQ-LQ scores, and total quality degradation is modeled by the weighted sum. From analyzing the correlation measures, we obtained correlation values of 0.8950 for the intrusive model and 0.8911 for the non-intrusive method.

There are rule-based learning method and statistic based learning method and so on which represent learning method for hierarchy relation between domain term. In this paper, we propose to leveling and similarity measure using the extended AHP of fuzzy term in Information system. In the proposed method, we extract fuzzy term in document and categorize ontology structure about it and level priority of fuzzy term using the extended AHP for specificity of fuzzy term. the extended AHP integrates multiple decision-maker for weighted value and relative importance of fuzzy term. and compute semantic similarity of fuzzy term using min operation of fuzzy set, dice's coefficient and Min+dice's coefficient method. and determine final alternative fuzzy term. after that compare with three similarity measure. we can see the fact that the proposed method is more definite than classification performance of the conventional methods and will apply in Natural language processing field.

The pervaporation experiments of aqueous solutions of trichloroethylene (TCE) and chlorobenzene (CB) through the silicone rubber (polydimethylsiloxane, PDMS) membrane were carried out and the effect of concentration polarization on the separation characteristics was investigated. The resistance-in-series model was used to explain the boundary layer resistance. It was clear that the concentration polarization phenomenon had a significant effect on the permeation behavior in the pervaporation separation of the trace organic chlorides from aqueous solutions. With the same membrane thickness, the permeation of TCE, which has a stronger affinity for the PDMS, appeared to be more influenced by the boundary layer resistance than that of CB. The effect of boundary layer resistance was reduced and the membrane resistance became dominant with increasing membrane thickness at a given hydrodynamic condition. The separation factor was increased to approach the intrinsic separation factor of the membrane with its thickness.

실용적인 표면영상유속계를 만들기 위해서는 적절한 하드웨어와 소프트웨어로 시스템을 구성해야 한다. 이를 위해서 본 연구에서는 하드웨어로 CCTV를 선택하고, 초음파 수위계를 이용하여 수위를 지속적으로 읽어들이도록 구성하였다. 한편, 소프트웨어적으로는 11변수 투영법을 적용하여 변화하는 수위에 따라 정확한 측정점을 재구성하도록 하고, 아울러 각 측정점에서 주흐름방향으로 정확한 시공간영상을 작성하고, 이 시공간영상(spatio-temporal image)들을 분석하였다. 그결과, 5분 간격으로 촬영된 1분 길이의 영상을 지속적으로 촬영하고 분석하여 유량을 산정하는 표면영상유속계측 시스템을 구축하였다. 본고에서는 이러한 소프트웨어 개선방향중 하나인 주흐름방향의 시공간영상 작성법을 소개한다. 먼저, 11변수 투영법을 이용하여 하천의 표면영상에 대한 좌표변환계수를 산정하였다. 그리고 이 좌표변환계수를 이용하여, 하천의 수위변화에 따라 표면영상내의 측정점이 적절히 수정될 수 있도록 하였다. 그 다음 이 측정점에서 측정횡단면과 수직이 되는 방향을 선정하고, 이 방향이 영상내에서 하천 측정횡단면과 수직인 방향, 즉 주흐름방향이 되도록 하였다. 촬영된 1분간의 동영상의 각 측정점 위치에서 잘라낸 시공간체적(spatio-temporal image volume)에서 주흐름방향의 시공간영상을 잘라내고 이를 상호상관법이나 고속푸리에변환을 이용하여 분석하였다. 이 때 만들어진 시공간영상은 주흐름방향과 정확하게 일치하여, 기존의 표면영상유속계의 문제이던, 일부 측정점의 유속벡터가 주흐름방향과 일치하지 않던 문제를 해결할 수 있었다. 개발된 방법으로 표면영상유속계를 제작하여 인수천에 시험 설치하고 호우 사상에 대해 검토한 결과 정확하고 신속하며 연속적인 유량측정이 가능하였다.

It is an important work to determine the mesh size of gill net for efficient catch. For investigating the suitable mesh size, the gill net for anchovy, Engraulis japonica was made and operated in the bay of Ulsan in July. 1983. The gill net for anchovy was composed of six different mesh size, 23.1mm (H=0.65), 21.6mm (H=0.65), 20.0mm (H=0.65), 23.1mm (H=0.55), 21.6mm (H=0.55) and 20.0mm(H=0.55). The parts of body caught by the gill net was examined, and the selectivity curves (for reference Ishida's method) with respect to the each mesh size were estimated using the data obtained through the operation of research gill net. The main results of this study are as follows: 1. The number of anchovy whose neck was in net was 148, more than $90\%$ of all, 161 2. The coefficient of relationship between the circumference of neck and the fork length were 0.70. 3. Fork length that the relative fishing efficiency of 23.1 mm mesh size (H=0.55) was maximum value was about 11.1 centimeter.

We propose an adaptive scheme of a differential codebook for temporally correlated channels. And the codeword entries of the propose codebook are selected among the set of M-PSK constellations - the values of M proposed in this paper are 8, 16, or 32. Firstly, we analyze mathematically how the optimal spherical cap radius of the proposed codebook is tracked. Then, we explain the practical implementation of the proposed adaptive method. Practically, some candidate differential codebooks we propose in this paper can be switched according to the temporal correlation coefficients of wireless channels in the proposed scheme. Monte-Carlo simulations demonstrate that the achievable throughput performance employing the proposed codebook is always superior to those of the differential codebooks employing M-PSK constellations and non-adaptive differential codebooks with the same amount of feedback information.

In the linear transformation method, the original image is divided into a plurality of range blocks, and a partial transform system for finding an optimal domain block existing in the image for each range block is used to adjust the performance of the compression ratio and the picture quality, The nonlinear transformation method uses only the rotation transformation among eight shuffle transforms. Since the search is performed only in the limited domain block, the coding time is faster than the linear transformation method of searching the domain block for any block in the image, Since the optimal domain block for the range block can not be selected in the image, the performance may be lower than other methods. Therefore, the nonlinear transformation method improves the performance by increasing the approximation degree of the brightness coefficient conversion instead of selecting the optimal domain block, The smaller the size of the block, the higher the PSNR value, The higher the compression ratio is increased groups were quadtree block divided to encode the image at best.

The purpose of this study is to locate the proper position of the lower occlusal plane according to individual skeletal pattern. Cephalometric films of 234 subjects of the control group, 358 of the pretreatment group and 358 of the treated group were analyzed to study proper relationships between vertical dimension ratio(VDR) and lower occlusomandibular plane angle(LOM). The control group was divided into two subgroups by the age. The first subgroup consisted of 113 subjects of the age 14 years and under and with the mean age of 10.82 years. The other subgroup consisted of 113 subjects of the age 18 years and above with the mean age of 23.76 years. The pretreatment group was divided into three subgroups by the age. The first subgroup consisted of 274 subjects of the age 14 years and under with the mean age of 11.36 years. The second subgroup consisted of 54 subjects of the age 14 through 18 years with the mean age of 15.4 years. The last subgroup consisted of 30 subjects of the age 18 years and above with the mean age of 21.35 years. The treated group was also divided into three subgroups by the age. The first subgroup consisted of 145 subjects of the age 14 years and under with the mean age of 12.91 years. The second subgroup consisted of 166 subjects of the age 14 through 18 years with the mean age of 15.64 years. The last subgroup consisted of 47 subjects of the age 18 years and above with the mean age of 21.61 years. Cephalometric films of the sample were traced. Measurements were made to a hundredth using a program specifically prepared for this study, and the results were entered into a 486DX PC. Means and Standard deviations of all the veriables were calculated for each group. Correlation coefficients between pertinent variables were calculated. Significance tests on those coefficients, one-way ANOVA and t-tests between variables or groups were performed. On the basis of the results studied above, certain subjects were selected from the control and the treated groups to locate the proper position of the occlusal plane, and designated as the optimal occluaion group. The subjects of this optimal occlusion group had 1-3 mm overbite, 1-3 mm of overjet and less than 1.75 mm of curve of Spee. A total subjects of 187 in this group consisted 104 treated subjects and 83 control group. Regression analysis was carried out between VDR and LOM, and regression equations were tabulated for this optimal occlusion group. The results were as follows : 1. Highly significant correlations were observed between various variables useful for identifying vertical component of skeletal frame, but any one particular variable did not accurately indicate the magnitude of anterior vertical overbite. 2. Of the variables useful identifying vertical component of skeletal frame, The VDR showed the highest correlation to the LOM. 3. Of the total sample, 80 percent had overbite within the normal range, irrespective of VDR. 4. The optimal occlusion group was divided into 9 subgroups by the age and the anteroposterior skeletal pattern, and correlation coefficient and determination coefficient between VDR and LOM of each group were calculated. Correlation coefficients and determination coefficients were found to be significantly high in all groups. 5. Regression equation was induced for each of the optimal occlusion group to find proper LOM according to the VDR. 6. It was found that the mean value of the cant of occlusal plane itself is not enough for a diagnosis and a treatment plan. Rather, It is very important to locate the proper occlusal plane for an Individual skeletal pattern.

Bearing is one of the important mechanical elements used in various industrial equipments. Most of failures occurred during the equipment operation result from bearing defects and breakages. Therefore, monitoring of bearings is essential in preventing equipment breakdowns and reducing unexpected loss. The purpose of this paper is to present an online monitoring method to predict bearing states using vibration signals. Bearing vibrations, which are collected as a form of profile signal, are first analyzed by a discrete wavelet transform. Next, some statistical features are obtained from the resultant wavelet coefficients. In order to select significant ones among them, analysis of variance (ANOVA) is employed in this paper. Statistical features screened in this way are used as input variables to support vector machine (SVM). An hierarchical SVM tree is proposed for dealing with multi-class problems. The result of numerical experiments shows that the proposed SVM tree has a competent performance for classifying bearing fault states.
