배경 잡음에 의해 저하된 음성을 복원하는 기술은 이미 오래 전부터 여러 가지 기법들이 연구되어왔다. 이들 기법 중, Spectral Subtraction 기법은 단일 채널에 의한 Speech Enhancement의 대표적인 방법이다. 그러나, 기존의 단일 채널 Speech Enhancement 기법의 중요한 단점은 Musical Noise라 불리는 잔존 Noise의 발생 및 목적신호가 왜곡된다는 것이다. 이 잔존 Noise에 의해 지금까지 연구 보고된 단일 채널 Speech Enhancement기법들은 거의 대부분 SNR은 향상되었지만 명료도의 향상이 곤란하였다고 보고되어왔다. 그러므로, 본 연구에서는 인간의 청각기구의 지각과정을 충실히 모방한 ROEX(Rounded Exponential) 청각 Filter를 이용하여 잔존 Noise인 Musical Noise를 억제시키는 기법을 제안하고자 한다.

In MT and GDS survey for probing the deep structure of the Earth, surrounding seas play a critical role to distort the response of in-land geological structure. This study analyzed the sea effect in the Korean Peninsula and investigated the spatial and frequency dependency of it using 2-D MT modeling. Due to conductance difference between the Yellow Sea and the East Sea, the effect of each sea shows the dependence on frequency and spatial distance from each coastline. In general, TM mode responses are more severely affected by surrounding sea than TE mode one and the differences between 1-D model and TM mode responses are in inverse proportion to the frequency. Assuming that the lowest limit of acquired frequency is 0.001Hz for the given 1-D structure, the separation distance, where the sea effect can be negligible, is approximately 100km for the East Sea and 40-50km for the Yellow Sea, respectively. But, this separation distance is a function of the 1-D electrical structure of subsurface and the used frequency.

영상시장의 개척과 디지털 기술의 발전과 더불어 차세대 3D 입체영상기술에 대한 관심과 수요가 증가하고 있다. 입체 정보는 크게 '단안 입체 정보(monoscopic depth cue)'와 '양안 입체 정보(stereoscopic depth cue)'로 분류 할 수 있다. 단안 입체 정보는 은폐, 상대적 크기, 상대적 밀도, 시야 안의 높이, 공기투시, 운동투시, 초점조절인 7가지로 경험에 의한 입체감을 지각하는 것을 말하며 양안 입체 정보는 두 눈으로 볼 때 처음으로 깊이를 지각 할 수 있는 것으로 크게 '동시시(simultaneous perception)', '융합(sensory fusion)', '입체시(stereoscopic vision)'의 세종류의 기능으로 분류한다. 3D 촬영은 이 양안시의 원리를 이용하여 두 대의 카메라의 좌우 영상을 합성하여 깊이감 있는 영상을 만들어 내게 된다. 본 논문에서는 3D 촬영방법은 촬영방식에 따라 크게 평행방식, 직교방식, 교차방식이 있는데 이중 중 원거리 촬영에 유리한 교차방식을 활용하여 사이드 바이 사이드 리그(Rig; 카메라를 수평으로 설치할 수 있도록 만들어진 장치)를 원거리 촬영에 맞게 축간거리를 기존의 리그 사이즈보다 2배 이상 긴 리그를 제작하여 보다 먼 거리에서의 상이한 좌우 영상획득이 가능하도록 설계하였다. 또한, 일정한 간격에 따라 피사체를 촬영하면서 거리에 따른 양 카메라의 가장 이상적인 IOD(Interocular Distance)와 CONV(Convergence)를 찾고, 교차방식촬영에 따른 특징적인 아티팩트인 키스톤 왜곡(Keystone distance)의 보정을 통한 원거리 입체영상을 효과적으로 획득하는데 본 연구방법을 제안하고자 한다.

In addition to optimistic bias which can be a biased phenomenon in perceived susceptibility, including illusion of control which is a distorted phenomenon, the current study attempted to demonstrate the influential relationship between these two important variables and COVID 19 personal preventive behaviors and social distancing practice. Conducting Survey utilizing online pannel from Macromill Embrain, the present study performed regression analysis, setting personal preventive behavioral variables such as mask wearing, hand washing, using hand sanitizer as independent variable, and analyzed how these independent variables influence control illusion and optimistic bias. As a result, COVID 19 personal preventive behavior didn't have direct effect on optimistic bias and control illusion except for hand washing. Finding, also, showed that control illusion affected optimistic bias, and the relation between these variables was different depending on demographic variable such as gender and age.

Size, velocity, and time equivalence are mechanisms that allow us to perceive objects in three-dimensional space consistently, despite errors on the two-dimensional retinal image. These mechanisms work on common cues, suggesting that the perception of motion distance, motion speed, and motion time may share common processing. This can lead to the hypothesis that, despite the spatial nature of visual stimuli distorting temporal perception, the perception of motion speed and the perception of motion duration will tend to oppose each other, as observed for objects moving in the environment. To test this hypothesis, the present study measured perceived speed using Müller-Lyer illusion stimulus to determine the relationship between the time-perception consequences of motion stimuli observed in previous studies and the speed perception measured in the present study. Experiment 1 manipulated the perceived motion trajectory while controlling for the retinal motion trajectory, and Experiment 2 manipulated the retinal motion trajectory while controlling for the perceived motion trajectory. The result is that the speed of the inward stimulus, which is perceived to be shorter, is estimated to be higher than that of the outward stimulus, which is perceived to be longer than the actual distance traveled. Taken together with previous time perception findings, namely that time perception is expanded for outward stimuli and contracted for inward stimuli, this suggests that when the perceived trajectory of a stimulus manipulated by the Müller-Lyer illusion is controlled for, perceived speed decreases with increasing duration and increases with decreasing duration when the perceived distance of the stimulus is constant. This relationship suggests that the relationship between time and speed perceived by spatial cues corresponds to the properties of objects moving in the environment, i.e, an increase in time decreases speed and a decrease in time increases speed when distance remains the same.

This study investigated acoustic features in spectral moment analysis, comparing accurate articulations with distortions of alveolar fricatives such as dentalization, palatalization, and lateralization. A retrospective analysis was conducted on speech samples from 61 children (mean age: 5.6±1.5 years, 19 females, 42 males) using the Assessment of Phonology & Articulation for Children (APAC) and Urimal-test of Articulation and Phonology I (U-TAP I). Spectral moment analysis was applied to 169 speech samples. The results revealed that the center of gravity of accurate articulations was higher than that of palatalization, while palatalization was lower than dentalization. The variance of dentalization was higher than that of both accurate articulations and palatalization. The skewness of dentalization was higher than that of accurate articulations, and the skewness of palatalization was higher than that of accurate articulations. The kurtosis of palatalization was higher than that of both accurate articulations and dentalization. No significant differences were observed for the position of fricatives (initial, medial) and tense type (plain, tense) across all variables of spectral moment analysis for each distortion type. This study confirmed distinct patterns in center of gravity, variance, skewness, and kurtosis depending on the type of alveolar fricative distortion. The objective values provided in this study will serve as foundational data for diagnosing alveolar fricative distortions in children with speech sound disorders.

This research explored how the various of factors including performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence and facilitating conditions and some external factors consisting of critical mass, attention, perceived enjoyment, and time distortion had impacts on users' usage of short-clip application based on flow theory and the UTAUT model. The research employed SEM with 263 valid questionnaires. The results showed that social influence and satisfaction factors had positive impacts in sustainable usage of mobile short-clip application, while the other factors have no special effect on it. The results also indicated that time distortions had a negative effect in the intention of continuous usage. Furthermore, performance expectancy, perceived enjoyment, and time distortions had positive impacts in users' satisfaction. The beneficial effects of critical mass on social influence had been recognized through this study.

In recent years, 3D displays are used in many media including 3D movies, TV, mobile phones, and PC games. Although 3D displays provide realistic viewing experience as compared with 2D displays, they also carry issues such as visual fatigue or size distortion. Focusing on the latter, we developed prediction function of object size perception as a function of object depth in 3D display. In Experiment 1, subjects observed 3D square of a fixed size of varying depth, and manipulated 2D square to make it as large as the 3D square. Conversely, in Experiment 2, subjects observed 2D square of a fixed size, and manipulated 3D square of varying depth to make it as large as the 2D square. In both Experiments 1 and 2, we found that size perception of 3D square linearly changed depending on depth of the square, and the linear relationship between depth and size was identical in both experiments. The predictive regression function, which predicts object size perception based on object depth, obtained in this research will be very useful in the creation of 3D media contents.

We examined the regional 1-D deep resistivity structure of the Korean Peninsula using MT data acquired at seven sites located in the Kyongsang Basin and Kyonggi Massif. At the sites located in the Kyongsang Basin, surrounding sea distorts observed MT response and hence this distortion, so called "sea effect", is corrected using an iterative tensor stripping method. The 1-D layered inversion results for the seven MT sites reveal 4 layered structure, which is composed of 1) near surface layer, 2) upper crust, 3) lower crust and upper mantle, and 4) asthenosphere from the surface downward. Conrad interface, which is a boundary between upper and lower crust, is distinctly identified beneath all the MT sites. Conrad interface depth is estimated to about be 17km in the Kyongsang Basin and about 12km in the Kyonggi Massif, while the upper crust of the Kyongsang Basin is about 5 times more resistive than that of the Kyonggi Massif. Finally, asthenosphere is inferred to exist below a depth of approximately 100km with a resistivity of 200-300 ohm-m.

본 논문에서는 고음질 오디오 신호에 임의로 삽입된 반향(Echo)신호가 음질에 미치는 영향을 조사하고, 이를 이용한 오디오 워터마킹 기법에 대해 다룬다. 일반적으로 오디오 신호에 반향을 첨가하게 되면 음색이 더욱 풍부해지는 효과를 얻을 수 있지만. 이 때 삽입된 반향신호의 시간 지연과 크기가 충분히 작을 경우에는 심리 음향모델의 시간영역 마스킹 효과에 의해 지각되지 않을 수도 있다 한편 오디오 신호의 구간별로 임의 삽입된 반향의 시간지연을 검출할 수 있다면, 이를 이용한 정보 감춤(data hiding)및 워터마킹 기법에 활용할 수 있다. 반향신호를 이용하여 원 신호에 정보를 삽입하게 되면 가우시안 잡음이나 PN 시퀸스를 이용하는 경우처럼 오디오 신호에 이질적인 잡음을 첨가하지 않기 때문에 청감 특성상 유리하며, 오디오 신호 고유의 통계적 특성을 유지 할수 있는 장점이 있다. 그러나 반향의 첨가가 음질의 왜곡은 초래하지 않으면서 정보의 검출이 가능하도록 하기위해서는 원 신호의 특성에 따른 반향 첨가 기술이 요구된다.
