  • In this paper, VTS(Vector Taylor Series) algorithm, which was proposed by Moreno at Carnegie Mellon University in 1996, is analyzed and simulated. VTS is considered to be one of the robust speech recognition techniques where model parameter conversion technique is adapted. To evaluation performance of the VTS algorithm, We used CMN(Cepstral Mean Normalization) technique which is one of the well-known noise processing methods. And the recognition rate is evaluated when white gaussian and street noise are employed as background noise. Also, the simulation result is analyzed in order to be compared with the previous one which was performed by Moreno.

  • Transcriptional silencing of subtelomeric genes is associated with telomere length, which is correlated with age. Long and short telomeres in young and old people, respectively, coincide with gene repression and activation in each case. In addition, differential location of genes with respect to telomeres causes telomere position effect. There is very little evidence of the manner in which age-related telomere length affects the expression of specific human subtelomeric genes. We analyzed the relationship between telomere length and gene expression levels in fibroblasts derived from human donors at ages ranging from 0-70 years. We studied three groups of genes located between 100 and 150 kb, 200 and 250 kb, and >300 kb away from telomeres. We found that the chromatin modifier-encoding genes Eu-HMTase1, ZMYND11, and RASA3 were overexpressed in adults. Our results suggest that short telomere length-related overexpression of chromatin modifiers could underlie transcriptional changes contributing to cellular senescence.

  • As a preliminary study for improving recognition performance of the connected digit telephone speech, we investigate feature parameters as well as channel compensation methods of telephone speech. The CMN and RTCN are examined for telephone channel compensation, and the MFCC, DWFBA, SSC and their delta-features are examined as feature parameters. Recognition experiments with database we collected show that in feature level DWFBA is better than MFCC and for channel compensation RTCN is better than CMN. The DWFBA+Delta_ Mel-SSC feature shows the highest recognition rate.

  • 일반적으로 음성 인식에서의 성능은 잡음의 영향으로 인하여 저하된다. 전화망을 통한 한국어 연속 숫자음 인식은 음성인식 분야에 있어서 어려운 영역에 속하는데, 이는 조음 현상으로 인한 인식률 저하되는 점과 전화망 채널의 영향으로 인하여 스펙트럼 포락이 왜곡되며 음성신호의 대역폭이 제한되기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 잡음의 영향을 줄이기 위하여, 2WF(2-stage Wiener Filter) 와 SWP (SNR-dependent Waveform Processing) 그리고 CMN(Cepstrum Mean Normalization)을 사용하였다. 2WF는 음성 신호의 포만트 구조를 적게 왜곡시키면서 전체적인 가산잡음 뿐만 아니라 동적 가산잡음도 줄여준다. SWP는 음성파형에서 SNR값이 상대적으로 큰 부분을 강조하여 전체적인 SNR을 향상시킬 수 있다. 또한, CMN은 특징벡터로부터 채널잡음의 영향을 정규화하여 음성 인식 성능을 향상시킨다. 이러한 방법들을 전화망 한국어 연속 숫자음 DB를 이용하여 실험한 결과, 음성신호의 왜곡을 최소화하면서 잡음의 영향을 줄여 전화망에서의 숫자음 인식 성능을 향상시킬 수 있었다.

  • The structural changes and the microwave dielectric properties of $Ba_{1-x}$/A$_{x}$/(Mg$_{1}$3//Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$(A=Sr, Ca=x0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) were investigated. The densities of samples are gradually decreased with increasing x(BMN=6.1, SMN=5.22 and CMN=4.26 g/m$^3$)The crystal structure of BMN was untilting of oxygen octahedral. The structural changes of BSMN showed the antiphase tilting at x>0.4, and those of BCMN showed the antiphase tilting at 0.20.8. The variation of dielectric constant with Sr was small(BMN=32, SMN=30) However the variation with Ca was large the highest value was 42 at Ca=0.2(CMN=25) The maximum quality factor was 68,000 GHz at Sr=0.2 and the minimum quality factor was 3,000 GHz at Ca=0.2 (BMN=35,000, SMN=20,000 and CMN=23,000 GHz) The temperature coefficients of resonant frequency of BSMN were about 2 times larger than those of BCMN in all composition.ion.

  • Quality-of-service (QoS) provisioning for a cognitive mesh network (CMN) with heterogeneous services has become a challenging area of research in recent days. Considering both real-time (RT) and non-real-time (NRT) traffic in a multihop CMN, [1] studied cross-layer resource management, including joint access control, route selection, and resource allocation. Due to the complexity of the formulated resource allocation problems, which are mixed-integer non-linear programming, a low-complexity yet efficient algorithm was proposed there to approximately solve the formulated optimization problems. In contrast, in this work, we present an application of genetic algorithm (GA) to re-address the hard resource allocation problems studied in [1]. Novel initialization, selection, crossover, and mutation operations are designed such that solutions with enough randomness can be generated and converge with as less number of attempts as possible, thus improving the efficiency of the algorithm effectively. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the newly proposed GA-based algorithm. Furthermore, by comparing the performance of the newly proposed algorithm with the one proposed in [1], more insights have been obtained in terms of the tradeoff among QoS provisioning for RT traffic, throughput maximization for NRT traffic, and time complexity of an algorithm for resource allocation in a multihop network such as CMN.

  • The mechanisms of selective oxidation of intercritically annealed CMnAl TRIP steels in a Continuous Galvanizing Line (GCL) were studied by cross-sectional observation of the surface and sub-surface regions by means of High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HR-TEM). The selective oxidation and nitriding of an intercritically annealed CMnAl TRIP steel in a controlled dew point 10%$H_2+N_2$ atmosphere resulted in the formation of c-xMnO.$MnO_2$ (1${\leq}$x<3) and c-xMnO.$Al_2O_3$ ($x{\geq}1$) particles on the steel surface. Single crystal c-xMnO.$SiO_2$ ($2{\leq}x{\leq}4$) oxide particles were also observed on the surface. A thin film of crystalline c-xMnO.$SiO_2$ (2${\leq}$x<3) and c-xMnO.$Al_2O_3$ ($x{\geq}1$) was present between these particles. In the sub-surface region, internal oxidation, nitriding and intermetallic compound formation were observed. In the first region, large crystalline c-xMnO.$SiO_2$ ($1{\geq}x{\geq}2$) and c-xMnO.$Al_2O_3$ ($x{\geq}1$) oxides particles were present. In the second region, c-AlN particles were observed, and in a third region, small $MnAl_x$ (x>1) intermetallic compound particles were observed.
