We propose a new method to reduce emotion recognition errors caused by variation in speaker characteristics and speech rate. Firstly, for reducing variation in speaker characteristics, we adjust features from a test speaker to fit the distribution of all training data by using the histogram equalization (HE) algorithm. Secondly, for dealing with variation in speech rate, we augment the training data with speech generated in various speech rates. In computer experiments using EMO-DB, KRN-DB and eNTERFACE-DB, the proposed method is shown to improve weighted accuracy relatively by 34.7%, 23.7% and 28.1%, respectively.

Various digital contents generation techniques are widely utilized by upgrading PC and mobile device. In this paper, we propose sketch effect simulation based on real drawing pieces. For this, we analyze Vincent Van Gogh's drawing pieces; and then construct DB by extracting sketch stroke pattern of each object. From this database, we select stroke pattern at each object, and then, apply it. Our algorithm can generate similar effect look like real drawing piece. It may be utilized various contents such as children's painting education book.

This paper describes an efficient algorithm to generate compact and complete prompts lists for connected spoken digits database. In building a connected spoken digit recognizer, we have to acquire speech data in various contexts. However, in many speech databases the lists are made by using random generators. We provide an efficient algorithm that can generate compact and complete lists of digits in various contexts. This paper includes the proof of optimality and completeness of the algorithm.

This paper proposes an FSS(Frequency Selective Surface) design system that automatically derives design parameters minimally specified by engineers. The proposed system derives optimal design parameters through theory of electromagnetic scattering on FSS, database implemented from real data obtained from practically manufactured FSS, and GA(Genetic Algorithm) for optimizing design parameters. The system, at the first step, searches the best matching FSS within preconstructed DB with given characteristics specified by operators, and then sets initial genes from the searched FSS parameters. GA iterates the optimization process until the system finds the FSS design parameters that matches the characteristics specified by operators. The theory for the electromagnetic scattering on FSS is verified by comparing the simulation results with real data obtained by measuring system composed of horn antenna and receiver. The process for manufacturing the FSS is also included in the paper.

Database Semantics (DBS) attempts to provide a comprehensive and integrated approach to human communication which seeks theory-implementation transparency. Two key components of DBS are Word bank as a data structure and left-Associative Grammar (LAG) as an algorithm. This study aims to provide a pilot implementation of Korean in DBS. First, it is shown how the three separate modules of grammar in DBS, namely, Hear, Think, and Speak, combine to form an integrated system that simulates a cognitive agent by making use of a simple Korean sentence as an example. Second, we provide a detailed analysis of the structure in Korean that is a characteristic of Korean involving numerals, classifiers, and nouns, thereby illustrating how DBS can be applied to Korean. We also discuss an issue raised in the literature concerning a problem that arises when we try to apply the LAG algorithm to the analysis of head-final language like Korean, and then discuss some possible solution to the problem.

Many studies have been made on location estimation under indoor environments which GPS signals do not reach, and, as a result, a variety of estimation methods have been proposed. In this paper, we deeply consider a problem of location estimation in a ship with a multi-story structure, and investigate a location estimation method using the fingerprint scheme based on the K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm. A reliable DB is constructed by measuring 100 received signals at each of 39 RPs in order to employ the fingerprint scheme, and, based on the DB, a simulation to estimate the location of a randomly-positioned terminal is performed. The simulation result confirms that the performance of location estimation by the fingerprint scheme is quite satisfactory.

In view of the fact that gas insulated switchgear (GIS) is an important piece of equipment in a substation, it is highly desirable to continuously monitor the state of equipment by measuring the partial discharge (PD) activity in a GIS, as PD is a symptom of an insulation weakness/breakdown. However, since the PD signal is relatively weak and the external noise makes detection of the PD signal difficult, it therefore requires careful attention in its detection. In this paper, the algorithm for detection of PD in the GIS using the wavelet transform (WT) is proposed. The WT provides a direct quantitative measure of the spectral content and dynamic spectrum in the time-frequency domain. The most appropriate mother wavelet for this application is the Daubechies 4 (db4) wavelet. 'db4', the most commonly applied mother wavelet in the power quality analysis, is very well suited to detecting high frequency signals of very short duration, such as those associated with the PD phenomenon. The proposed algorithm is based on utilizing the absolute sum value of coefficients, which are a combination of D1 (Detail 1) and D2 (Detail 2) in multiresolution signal decomposition (MSD) based on WT after noise elimination and normalization.

In this paper, we develope the smart phone App. contents of 3D sign language to widen the opportunity of the korean sign language education for the hearing-impaired and normal people. Especially, we propose the sign language conversion algorithm that automatically transform the structure of Korean phrases to the structure of the sign language. Also, we implement the 3D sign language animation DB using motion capture system and data glove for acquiring the natural motions. Finally, UNITY 3D engine is used for the realtime 3D rendering of sign language motion. We are distributing the proposed App. with 3D sign language DB of 1,300 words to the iPhone App. store and Android App. store.

Marine accidents have always caused huge economic losses, as well as environmental pollution. Prevention of marine accidents has become a focus of argumentation. The analysis of past accident cases, reviewing the experience and lessons, is important and necessary for preventing marine accidents. With the same subject above, the Korean Maritime Safety Tribunal provides for past marine accidents' written judgments and analysis of judgment and associated retrieval system on its homepage. In these systems, the name of the ship, accident occurrence time, accident pattern or related keywords are used as search conditions. However, most of the marine events' happening were not due to a single reason, but multiple ones. In addition, one marine event could often come under several categories. In this case, now the retrieval systems' DB is used on the Korean Maritime Safety Tribunal homepage was built based on single category and failed to be able to retrieve according to multiple reasons or multiple categories. In order to solve this problem, a more practical retrieval approach might be needed. Therefore, in this paper, a new retrieval system will be proposed, which using the linguistic label to describe the cluster after analyzing the relational properties between marine accidents and clustering by FCM algorithm, and then adding an interface to allow users to get the results they want through choosing multiple reasons or multiple categories.
