  • Even though several deep learning-based methods have been applied in the field of acoustic source localization, the previous works have only been conducted using the two-dimensional representation of the beamforming maps, particularly with the planar array system. While the acoustic sources are more required to be localized in a spherical microphone array system considering that we live and hear in the 3D world, the conventional 2D equirectangular map of the spherical beamforming map is highly vulnerable to the distortion that occurs when the 3D map is projected to the 2D space. In this study, a 3D deep learning approach is proposed to fulfill accurate source localization via distortion-free 3D representation. A target function is first proposed to obtain 3D source distribution maps that can represent multiple sources' positional and strength information. While the proposed target map expands the source localization task into a point-wise prediction task, a PointNet-based deep neural network is developed to precisely estimate the multiple sources' positions and strength information. While the proposed model's localization performance is evaluated, it is shown that the proposed method can achieve improved localization results from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives.

  • In this paper, we propose the method that extracts the speech feature using the hearing model through signal precessing techniques. The proposed method includes following procedure ; normalization of the short-time speech block by its maximum value, multi-resolution analysis using the discrete wavelet transformation and re-synthesize using thediscrete inverse wavelet transformation, differentiation after analysis and synthesis, full wave rectification and integration. In order to verify the performance of the proposed speech feature in the speech recognition task, korean digita recognition experiments were carried out using both the dTW and the VQ-HMM. The results showed that, in case of using dTW, the recognition rates were 99.79% and 90.33% for speaker-dependent and speaker-independent task respectively and, in case of using VQ-HMM, the rate were 96.5% and 81.5% respectively. And it indicates that the proposed speech feature has the potentials to use as a simple and efficient feature for recognition task.

  • The transposed Jacobian is proposed to transform the control space from task space to joint space, in this paper. Instead of inverse Jacobian, the transposed Jacobian is preferred to avoid singularity problem, short real time calculations and its generality to apply for rectangular Jacobian. On-line Jacobian identification is proposed to cancel parametric errors produced by D-H parameters of manipulator. To identify Jacobian, the joint angles and the end-effector position are measured when tracking a desired trajectory in task space. Stability of control system is analyzed. The control system is simulated for position control of a two-link manipulator driven by permanent magnet dc motors. Simulation results are shown to compare the roles of inverse Jacobian and transposed Jacobian for transforming the control space.

  • In current study on 8 college students there was examined modulation of eyeblink (as measured by integrated EMG of m.orbicularis oculi) and skin conductance response (SCR) to an acoustic startle probe (85 dB[A] white noise) by attending to task presented in auditory modality (to memorize words for further recognition) and entire performance of the word recognition test. Both eyeblink magnitude and SCR amplitude and rise time to startle probes were modified (larger magnitude of EMG peak, lower amplitude and shorter rise time of SCR) during attending to task as compared to performance on test. Results are interpreted n terms of modification of electrodermal and eyeblink components of startle and orienting reflexes by task characteristics (passive versus active efforts), attentional demands and aversiveness of experimental situation. However, eyeblink startle response manifested potentiation during attending to task, while SCR demonstrated attenuation. There are discussed implications of startle modulatioas a potentially sensitive probe of situational demands in stress research and also are considered prospects for further studies.

  • The power consumption of 3D many-core processors can be reduced, and the power delivery of such processors can be improved by introducing voltage island (VI) design using on-chip voltage regulators. With the dramatic growth in the number of cores that are integrated in a processor, however, it is infeasible to adopt per-core VI design. We propose a 3D many-core processor architecture that consists of multiple voltage clusters, where each has a set of cores that share an on-chip voltage regulator. Based on the architecture, the steady state temperature is analyzed so that the thermal characteristic of each voltage cluster is known. In the voltage scaling and task scheduling stages, the thermal characteristics and communication between cores is considered. The consideration of the thermal characteristics enables the proposed VI formation to reduce the total energy consumption, peak temperature, and temperature gradients in 3D many-core processors.

  • The study of maintenance planning is important in military weapon systems because it can improve their availability and reduce the operational and maintenance cost during the total life cycle. In maintenance planning, it is important to determine the preventive maintenance task and its optimal interval. This paper focuses on the hard time task, which is one of the preventive maintenance tasks. A hard time task removes an item or restorative action before some specified maximum age limit to prevent functional failure. The Monte-Carlo simulation model was proposed to help understand the cost effectiveness of a hard time task. In the simulation, various shape parameters of the Weibull distribution and cost ratio of corrective maintenance to preventive maintenance were assumed. Using a Monte-Carlo simulation, a quantified cost saving effect and optimal preventive maintenance interval were suggested.

  • A large body of previous studies investigated mathematical tasks by analyzing the design process prior to lessons or textbooks. While researchers have revealed the significant roles of mathematical tasks within written curricular, there has been a call for studies about how mathematical tasks are implemented or what is experienced and learned by students as enacted curriculum. This article proposes a mathematical task analytic framework based on a holistic definition of tasks encompassing both written tasks and the process of task enactment. We synthesized the features of the mathematical tasks and developed a task analytic framework with multiple dimensions: breadth, depth, bridging, openness, and interaction. We also applied the scoring rubric to analyze three multiplication tasks to illustrate the framework by its five dimensions. We illustrate how a series of tasks are analyzed through the framework when students are engaged in multiplicative thinking. The framework can provide important information about the qualities of planned tasks for mathematics instruction (proactive) and the qualities of implemented tasks during instruction (reactive). This framework will be beneficial for curriculum designers to design rich tasks with more careful consideration of how each feature of the tasks would be attained and for teachers to transform mathematical tasks with the provision of meaningful learning activities into implementation.

  • We present a method for improving adaptability of Learning from Demonstration (LfD) strategy by combining the LfD and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). A trajectory generated from an LfD is modified with PSO by minimizing a fitness function that considers constraints. Finally, the final trajectory is suitable for a task and adapted for constraints. The effectiveness of the method is shown with a target reaching task with a manipulator in three-dimensional space.
