A principal components analysis (PCA) of the median head-related impulse responses (HRIRs) in the CIPIC HRTF database reveals that the individual HRIRs can be adequately reconstructed by a linear combination of 12 orthonormal basis functions. These basis functions can be used generally to model arbitrary HRIRs, which are not included in the process to obtain the basis functions. To clarify whether these basis functions can be used to model other set of arbitrary HRIRs, an numerical error analysis for modeling and a series of subjective listening tests were carried out using the measured and modeled HRIRs. The results showed that the set of individual HRIRs, which were measured in our lab using different measurement conditions, techniques, and source positions, can be well modeled with reasonable accuracy. Furthermore, all subjects reported not only the accurate vertical perception but also the front-back discrimination with the modeled HRIRs based on 12 basis functions. However, as less basis functions were used for HRIR modeling, the modeling accuracy and localization performance deteriorated.

High-speed military aircraft shall be able to identify and resolve enemy threats or internal component defects with survival equipment and warning systems to minimize casualties. Warning system is divided into visual method with symbolic display and auditory method with communication equipment, which is superior in that they it has a short response time and does not cause pilot confusion by listening to simple messages. Thus, this paper suggested and evaluated effective design methods of voice/tone warning systems for military aircraft based on a life cycle perspective. Since military aircraft is safety-sensitive, priorities and three properties(Inhibitible, Interruptible, and Deactivatable) were applied to each warning to reflect criticality and urgency. As a result, we confirmed that it took 40ms to play the voice warnings, satisfying all requirements through V model-based development and testing, and improving product reliability.

In this paper, a study on facial movements are analyzed in terms of opposite emotion stimuli by image processing of Kinect facial image. To induce two opposite emotion pairs such as "Sad - Excitement"and "Contentment - Angry" which are oppositely positioned onto Russell's 2D emotion model, both visual and auditory stimuli are given to subjects. Firstly, 31 main points are chosen among 121 facial feature points of active appearance model obtained from Kinect Face Tracking SDK. Then, pixel changes around 31 main points are analyzed. In here, local minimum shift matching method is used in order to solve a problem of non-linear facial movement. At results, right and left side facial movements were occurred in cases of "Sad" and "Excitement" emotions, respectively. Left side facial movement was comparatively more occurred in case of "Contentment" emotion. In contrast, both left and right side movements were occurred in case of "Angry" emotion.

This paper focuses on a real-time hardware processing by implementing the ARM Cortex-M4 based embedded system, using a conversion algorithm from a muscular sense to both visual and auditory elements, which recognizes rotations of a human body, directional changes and motion amounts out of human senses. As an input method of muscular sense, AHRS(Attitude Heading Reference System) was used to acquire roll, pitch and yaw values in real time. These three input values were converted into three elements of HSI color model such as intensity, hue and saturation, respectively. Final color signals were acquired by converting HSI into RGB color model. In addition, Three input values of muscular sense were converted into three elements of sound such as octave, scale and velocity, which were synthesized to give an output sound using MIDI(Musical Instrument Digital Interface). The analysis results of both output color and sound signals revealed that input signals of muscular sense were correctly converted into both color and sound in real time by the proposed conversion method.

This paper proposes new Steganographic model for VoIP that has very effective method using low bit encoding. Most of Steganographic models using Low bit Encoding have two disadvantages; one is that the existence of hidden secret message can be easily detected by auditory, the other is that the capacity of stego data is low. To solve these problems, this method embed more than one bit in inaudible range, so this method can improve the capacity of the hidden message in cover data. The embedding bit position is determined by using a pseudo random number generator which has seed with remaining message length, so it is hard to detect the stego data produced by the proposed method. This proposed model is able to use not only to communicate wave file with hidden message in VoIP environment but also to hide vary information which is user basic information, authentication system, etc.

The most fundamental difference between general three dimensional computer graphics technology and virtual reality technology lies in the degree of realism as we feel, and thus the virtual reality method heavily relies on such tolls as data gloves, 3D auditory system to enhance human perception and recognition. Although these tolls are valid for such purpose, more essential ingredient. This paper provides further realism by modeling active interactions between the objects inside scenes. For this purpose, this paper proposes and implements a field model where the virtual reality space is treated as a physical field defined on the characteristic radius of stimulus and sense corresponding to the individual object. In the field model, the rule of cause and effect as an essential feature of the realism can be interpreted simply as an energy exchange between objects and consequently, variation on the radius information together with behavioral logic alone can build the virtual environment where each object can react to other objects actively and controllably.

A movie recommendation system is proposed to learn a preference model of a viewer by using multimodal features of a video content and their evoked implicit responses of the viewer in synchronized manner. In this system, facial expression, body posture, and physiological signals are measured to estimate the affective states of the viewer, in accordance with the stimuli consisting of low-level and affective features from video, audio, and text streams. Experimental results show that it is possible to predict arousal response, which is measured by electrodermal activity, of a viewer from auditory and text features in a video stimuli, for estimating interestingness on the video.

The system using augmented reality can save the time and cost. It is verified in various fields under the possibility of a technology by solving unrealistic feeling in the virtual space. Therefore, augmented reality has a variety of the potential to be used. Generally, multimodal senses such as visual/auditory/tactile feed back are well known as a method for enhancing the immersion in case of interaction with virtual object. By adapting tangible object we can provide touch sensation to users. a 3D model of the same scale overlays the whole area of the tangible object; thus, the marker area is invisible. This contributes to enhancing immersive and natural images to users. Finally, multimodal feedback also creates better immersion. In this paper, sound feedback is considered. By further improving immersion learning augmented reality for children with the initial step learning content is presented. Augmented reality is in the intermediate stages between future world and real world as well as its adaptability is estimated more than virtual reality.

conducted. In-situ measurements were conducted to investigate the noise characteristics in high-speed trains such as KTX and KTX-Sancheon. Binaural microphones and spherical microphone were adopted to record and evaluate the spectral characteristics and noise incidence characteristics at the seats in the passenger cars. Environmental elements were also recorded during the noise measurements using a camcorder and GPS application. In addition, auditory tests were conducted to investigate annoyance of interior noise of high-speed trains. Based on the objective measure and subjective responses on interior noise, statistical analysis such as correlation and regression analyses were carried out. From the results perception models for evaluating the interior noise of high-speed train were derived.
