본 논문에서는 아날로그 이동 전화 환경에서의, 객관적인 음질 평가 척도를 사용하 여 주관적 음질을 추정하는 이동전화 자동 음질평가 시스템을 개발하였다. 이동전화의 통화 품질을 유지하기 위해서는 이동전화의 네트워크를 계속하여 체크하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 주관적 음질 평가는 사람의 체감을 직접 나타내는 것이므로 실제적인 음질을 평가하는데 중 요한 척도가 되지만, 인력과 시간이 많이 소모되므로 다양한 지역에서 지속적으로 음질을 평가하는데 부적절하다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 객관적 음질평가 척도를 이용하여 주관적 음질 평가 척도를 예측하는 자동 음질 평가 시스템이 필수적이다. 반복된 실험을 통 하여 BSD(Bark Spectral Distance)가 주관적 음질 평가 척도와 높은 상관관계가 있음을 확 인하였으며 원래의 음성과 이동 전화 채널을 통과한 음성과의 BSD를 측정한 후 이를 바탕 으로 MOS(Mean Opinion Score)를 추정하는 자동 음질 평가 시스템(Automatic Speech Quality Evaluator)을 개발하였다.

Recently, in order to reduce traffic accident related fatalities, increasing number of studies are conducted regarding the vehicle safety enhancement devices. But very few studies about test procedures and requirements for vehicle safety systems are being carried out. Since BSD, as one of the most important safety features, is installed on a new vehicle, its performance test method has to be evaluated. Independent factors irrelevant to the device types including collision position, vehicle speed and closing speed are used to calculate test distance away from the current vehicle. Effect of roadway geometry as radius of curvature is introduced to propose possible misjudgement of following vehicle as adjacent one. The study results would be utilized to enhance the test procedure of BSD performance.

본 연구에서는 PCS 이동전화의 객관적 통화품질평가 척도개발을 위한 기초연구로 기존의 CD(Cepstral Distance), MSD (Mel Spectral Distance), BSD(Bark Spectral Distance), PSQM (Perceptual Speech Quality Measure) 척도를 적용하여 그 성능을 비교 분석하였다. 이 척도들을 실제환경에서 수집된 PCS 음성데이터에 대해서 적용하였고 이 결과치와 청취자들의 평가 반응에 의해 얻어진 MOS 결과치와의 상관성을 조사하였다. 실험 결과, BSD와 PSQM 척도의 상관성이 0.81, 0.84로 나타나 CD, MSD보다 성능이 더 우수함을 보였다.

본 논문은 최근의 네트웍 장비의 기본적인 기능인 stateful inspection 을 지원하기 위해 생성되는 세션 테이블들의 구조와 그 효율성을 확인한다. 그를 위해 LINUX, FreeBSD, OpenBSD 등의 운영체제에서 사용되고 있는 방화벽 소프트웨어들의 세션 테이블 구조 및 특징을 확인하고 실제 실험을 통해 구조적 특징 및 트래픽의 지역성이 테이블의 탐색에 걸리는 오버헤드를 줄이는 데에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 실제 실험하였으며, 트리 구조를 가지는 세션 테이블이 worst case 시의 테이블 탐색시간을 줄여줌으로써 전체적인 패킷 처리시간을 줄여줄 수 있는 구조임을 확인한다.

In this paper, a multi-channel speech enhancement method using the linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) algorithm and a variable learning rate control is proposed. To control the learning rate for adaptive filters of the LCMV algorithm, the direction of arrival (DOA) is measured for each short-time input signal and the likelihood function of the target speech presence is estimated to control the filter learning rate. Using the likelihood measure, the learning rate is increased during the pure noise interval and decreased during the target speech interval. To optimize the parameter of the mapping function between the likelihood value and the corresponding learning rate, an exhaustive search is performed using the Bark's scale distortion (BSD) as the performance index. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the conventional LCMV with fixed learning rate in the BSD by around 1.5 dB.

In this paper, a comparison of superpixel characteristics for each color feature space. The superpixel is consist of several pixels with same features such as luminance, color, textures etc. The superpixel can be used on image processing and analysis with large image size to speed up the process. We compare the superpixel characteristics by means of compactness using Berkeley image database(BSD-300).

User Generated contents(UGC) interchange with internet users actively in Web2.0 environment. According to growth of content sharing site, the number of non-expert's contents increased. But non-expert's contents have a simple media just recorded. For providing actual feeling like effects and actions to non-expert's contents, we suggest Fusion Media Middleware(FMM). The FMM can increase user satisfaction by providing actual feeling. Furthermore, The content changes advanced media that has emotional impression. The FMM for providing actual feeling classify the inputted media as a scene based on MPEG-7. The FMM provide an actual feeling to simple media by inserting effects like a sound, image and text among the classified media. Using the BSD code of MPEG-21, the FMM can link up with inputted media and effects. Through the mapping BSD code the FMM control synchronization between media and effects. In this paper, Using the Fusion Media Middleware, the non-expert's contents express value as multimedia that has an actual feeling. Futhermore, the FMM creates flow of new media circulation.

The popularity of Web service is ever increasing. As the number of services and clients continue to increase, the problem of providing a system that scales with this increase is becoming more difficult. A costly and ineffective method is to buy a new system that is more powerful every time the load becomes unbearable. h more cost effective solution is to expand the system as the need arises. This is the approach taken in Web cluster systems. However, providing effective scalability in a Web cluster system is stil1 an open issue. In this study, we implement a Web cluster system based on Layer 7 switching technique on Linux. The implementation is based on a design proposed and implemented by Aron et al., but on the FreeBSD. Though the design li the same, due to the vast difference between the FreeBSD and Linux, the implementation presented in this paper is totally new. We also propose the Dual Scheduling (DS) load distribution algorithm that distributes the requests to the system resources by observing the variations in the request rate. We show through measurement on our implementation that the DS alorithm performs considerably bettor than previous algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a new objective speech quality measure using noise masking threshold for speech quality assessment of mobile telephone network environments, and verify the effectiveness of the proposed method through the experiments. For such a purpose, well known objective speech quality measures such as BSD and PSQM are first evaluated for digital mobile telephone network environments. However, these conventional methods does not have good performance under mobile networks environments compared to literary results. To be mote effective objective speech quality measure under mobile telephone environments, the proposed method employs human psychoacoustic masking effect. The DMOS, instead of MOS, is used as a subjective speech quality measure for performance evaluation. The performance comparison are carried out with speech data collected from digital mobile telephone environments. As results, the proposed measure have and average 4% higher performance, in terms of correlation, than existing objective speech quality measures such as BSD and PSQM.
