  • This paper describes the acoustic characteristics of 8 Korean monophthongs. Two acoustic variables were newly manipulated the distance between Fl and F2 (Δ[F2-Fl]). which might be of help for the judgement of the vowel backness. and Euclidian distance between two vowels. [에] & [애] were observed to be merged in both male vowel space and the female's. respectively. The merger of [우] & [오], on the other hand, was only seen in the female space. In case of Fl, which concerns the vowel height. the scope of the females' was 1.36 times longer than that of the males' Regarding F2, which is related to the vowel backness. the females used a space 1.29 times longer than the males. The observation of Euclidian distance between the basic 3 vowels (이. 아. 우) showed that the females have longer distance than the males: [이-아] 1.25 times, [아-우] 1.45 times, and [이-우] 1.35 times. respectively.

  • Blind equalization techniques have been used in broadcast and multipoint communications. In this paper, two criteria of minimizing Euclidian distance between two probability density functions (PDFs) for adaptive blind equalizers are presented. For PDF calculation, Parzen window estimator is used. One criterion is to use a set of randomly generated desired symbols at the receiver so that PDF of the generated symbols matches that of the transmitted symbols. The second method is to use a set of Dirac delta functions in place of the PDF of the transmitted symbols. From the simulation results, the proposed methods significantly outperform the constant modulus algorithm in multipath channel environments.

  • In this paper, we compare two methods that improve the reliability of soft output at the receiver of MIMO communications. The receiver complexity of spatially mutiplexed MIMO system is in proportion to the number of candidate vectors. Low complexity receiver techniques involving a small number of candidate vectors, provide soft output values of low reliability. In order to improve the low reliability of soft output, two previous methods can be used; the first method involves a clipping threshold, the second method uses Euclidian distance instead of squared Euclidian distance. In the paper, we address the theoretical similarity of the two methods, then we compare the two methods from the perspective of hardware implementation.

  • In this paper, a minimum Euclidian distance criterion between error PDF and Dirac delta function is introduced and a constant modulus type blind equalizer algorithm based on the criterion is proposed. The proposed algorithm using constant modulus error in place of actual error term of the criterion has superior convergence and steady state MSE performance, and the error signal of the proposed algorithm exhibits more concentrated density function in blind equalization environments. Simulation results indicate that the proposed method can be a reliable candidate for blind equalizer algorithms for multipoint communications.

  • We make image that accumulate two principal component after change picture to use GLCM(Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix)'s texture feature information. And then these images use preprocess to achieved corner detection and area detection. Experiment results, two principle component conversion accumulation images had most informations about six kind textures by Eigen value 94.6%. When compared with red tide area that uses sea color and red tide area of image that have all principle component, displayed the most superior result. Also, we creates Euclidian space using Euclidian distance measurement about red tide area and clear sea. We identify of red tide area by red tide area and clear sea about random sea area through Euclidian distance and spatial distribution.

  • In this parer, a method of measuring the size of defects on the wall and restructing the defect image of 3-dimension is developed based on the tracking algorithm of a camera position which uses the inclination angle of line slit beam for overcoming the difficulty of the corresponding problem identifying the image point in the both image. In the experiments, an algorithm for estimating the horizontal angle of CCD camera is presented and validated by applying it to the measurement of area and length under the variations of both the distance and the angle of CCD camera. And its performance is compared to that of the rotating and mapping method of image which has the Euclidian distance.

  • For complex channel blind equalization, this study presents the performance and characteristics of two complex blind information theoretic learning algorithms (ITL) which are based on minimization of Euclidian distance (ED) between probability density functions compared to constant modulus algorithm which is based on mean squared error (MSE) criterion. The complex-valued ED algorithm employing constant modulus error and the complex-valued ED algorithm using a self-generated symbol set are analyzed to have the fact that the cost function of the latter forces the output signal to have correct symbol values and compensate amplitude and phase distortion simultaneously without any phase compensation process. Simulation results through MSE convergence and constellation comparison for severely distorted complex channels show significantly enhanced performance of symbol-point concentration with no phase rotation.

  • Varietal distances were measured by Euclidian $D^2$ statistics in 1, 891 possible comparisons among sixty two varieties of Alisma plantago with seven characters such as leaf width, leaf length, stem length, number of stems per plant, root diameter, and yield of fresh and dry root. A complete linkage cluster analysis based on the Euclidian distance $(D^2)$ was attempted. Sixty two cultivars of Alisma plantago were largely classified into five subgroups. Group 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 included twelve, twenty one, seventeen, five and seven cultivars, respectively. Most of the varietal groups were not associated with their geographical origins. Stem length and root weight among the seven characters were the largest contributors to the $D^2$ in both intra- and inter- groups.

  • Complex-valued blind algorithms which are based on constant modulus error and Euclidian distance (ED) between two probability density functions show relatively poor performance in spite of the advantages of information theoretic learning since the inherent characteristics of the constant modulus error prevent the algorithm from coping with the symbol phase rotation caused by the complex channels. In this paper, we show that the symbol phase rotation problem can be avoided and the advantages of information theoretic learning can be preserved by introducing decision-directed mode to the blind algorithm whenever the equalizer output power lies in the neighborhood of multi-modulus levels. Simulation results through MSE convergence and constellation comparison for severely distorted complex channels show significantly enhanced performance of symbol-point concentration and no phase rotation problems caused by the complex channel models.
