The performance of a bimodal system is affected by the accuracy of the endpoint detection from the input signal as well as the performance of the speech recognition or lipreading system. In this paper, we propose the endpoint detection method which detects the endpoints from the audio and video signal respectively and utilizes the signal to-noise ratio (SNR) estimated from the input audio signal to select the reliable endpoints to the acoustic noise. In other words, the endpoints are detected from the audio signal under the high SNR and from the video signal under the low SNR. Experimental results show that the bimodal system using the proposed endpoint detector achieves satisfactory recognition rates, especially when the acoustic environment is quite noisy.

Plasma etch endpoint detection (EPD) of SiO2 and PR layer is demonstrated by plasma impedance monitoring in this work. Plasma etching process is the core process for making fine pattern devices in semiconductor fabrication, and the etching endpoint detection is one of the essential FDC (Fault Detection and Classification) for yield management and mass production. In general, Optical emission spectrocopy (OES) has been used to detect endpoint because OES can be a simple, non-invasive and real-time plasma monitoring tool. In OES, the trend of a few sensitive wavelengths is traced. However, in case of small-open area etch endpoint detection (ex. contact etch), it is at the boundary of the detection limit because of weak signal intensities of reaction reactants and products. Furthemore, the various materials covering the wafer such as photoresist (PR), dielectric materials, and metals make the analysis of OES signals complicated. In this study, full spectra of optical emission signals were collected and the data were analyzed by a data-mining approach, modified K-means cluster analysis. The K-means cluster analysis is modified suitably to analyze a thousand of wavelength variables from OES. This technique can improve the sensitivity of EPD for small area oxide layer etching processes: about 1.0 % oxide area. This technique is expected to be applied to various plasma monitoring applications including fault detections as well as EPD.

The endpoint detection (EPD) is the most important technique in plasma etching process. In plasma etching process, the Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) is usually used to analyze plasma reaction. And Plasma Impedance Monitoring (PIM) system is used to measure the voltage, current, power, and load impedance of the supplied RF power during plasma process. In this paper, a new decision making algorithm is proposed to improve the performance of EPD in SiOx single layer plasma etching. To enhance the accuracy of the endpoint detection, both OES data and PIM data are utilized and a newly proposed decision making algorithm is applied. The proposed method successfully detected endpoint of silicon oxide plasma etching.

The attacker's techniques and tools are becoming intelligent and sophisticated. Existing Anti-Virus cannot prevent security accident. So the security threats on the endpoint should also be considered. Recently, EDR security solutions to protect endpoints have emerged, but they focus on visibility. There is still a lack of detection and responsiveness. In this paper, we use real-world EDR event logs to aggregate knowledge-based MITRE ATT&CK and autoencoder-based anomaly detection techniques to detect anomalies in order to screen effective analysis and analysis targets from a security manager perspective. After that, detected anomaly attack signs show the security manager an alarm along with log information and can be connected to legacy systems. The experiment detected EDR event logs for 5 days, and verified them with hybrid analysis search. Therefore, it is expected to produce results on when, which IPs and processes is suspected based on the EDR event log and create a secure endpoint environment through measures on the suspicious IP/Process.

During titration, several chemical reactions result in changes not only in the potential of chemicals, but also in the colors of the indicator. In a potentiometric titration, a titration curve is obtained by measuring the abrupt change in the potential at the endpoint. Generally, acid-base titration is performed by observing the color change caused by an indicator to determine the endpoint. The method of determining the endpoint by measuring the potential difference has been well established and commercialized; however, the devices that can obtain the endpoint by observing the color change are limited. Consequently, in this study, a simple and precise spectral endpoint detector was manufactured using a drop-counter comprising an infrared emitter and a phototransistor, a white light LED as the light source and photodetector, and an analog-to-digital converter (Arduino). Spectrator, a new named, showed excellent results in terms of the reproducibility of acid-base titration using thymol blue as an indicator. Herein, we present the results of the Spectrator-manufacturing process as well as the experimental results.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Adolescents who skip breakfast have an increased prevalence of chronic diseases. Thus, we aimed to evaluate whether the intake of rice-based breakfast had positive effects on blood glucose indices and to determine the possibility of diabetes prevalence in Korean youths who habitually skip breakfast. SUBJECTS/METHODS: In this randomized parallel-group controlled trial, 81 subjects who were suitable for compliance among 105 middle-and high-school students aged 12-18 years who usually skipped breakfast were included in this study (rice-meal group [RMG], n = 26; wheat-meal group [WMG], n = 29; general-meal group [GMG], n = 26). The RMG and WMG received a rice-based breakfast and a wheat-based breakfast for 12 weeks, respectively. The anthropometric indices, blood glucose indices, and metabolites were measured at baseline and the endpoint, respectively. RESULTS: The mean body weights in the RMG, WMG, and GMG groups at the endpoint were 62.44 kg, 61.80 kg, and 60.28 kg, respectively, and the mean body weights of the WMG and GMG groups at the endpoint were significantly higher than that at baseline (P < 0.05). The levels of fasting insulin and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) values were significantly decreased in the RMG group at the endpoint compared to baseline (P < 0.05, P < 0.05, respectively). The levels of tryptophan and tyrosine in the WMG group at the endpoint were significantly higher than that those at baseline (P < 0.01, P < 0.05, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Rice-based breakfast has positive effects on fasting insulin levels and HOMA-IR in Korean adolescents who skip breakfast. Additionally, it was found that a skipping breakfast could increase the prevalence of diabetes in adolescents who skip breakfast. Therefore, in addition to reducing breakfast skipping, it is vital to develop a rice-based menu that fits teenage preferences to prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes.

An IP address plays both endpoint identifier and location identifier in wire based network. However, one IP address can not provide both endpoint identifier and location identifier for mobile Internet environment such as cellular network and portable Internet. To resolve this problem, mobile IPv4 and mobile IPv6 technologies are developed. These technologies are based on the concept of separation the endpoint identifier from location identifier. This paper describes some results of the recent studies such as mobile IPv4, mobile IPv6, host identify protocol and so on. Also, we propose the criteria to decide which technologies are suitable for deployment in the practical network environment.

Certain weak type endpoint estimates are established for maximal commutators generated by $Calder\acute{o}n-Zygmund$ operators and $Osc_{exp}L^{\gamma}({\mu})$ functions for ${\gamma}{\ge}1$ under the condition that the underlying measure only satisfies some growth condition, where the kernels of $Calder\acute{o}n-Zygmund$ operators only satisfy the standard size condition and some $H\ddot{o}rmander$ type regularity condition, and $Osc_{exp}L^{\gamma}({\mu})$ are the spaces of Orlicz type satisfying that $Osc_{exp}L^{\gamma}({\mu})$ = RBMO(${\mu}$) if ${\gamma}$ = 1 and $Osc_{exp}L^{\gamma}({\mu}){\subset}RBMO({\mu})$ if ${\gamma}$ > 1.
