Effect of fixation methods and relaxation treatment on the flame retardant(FR) and physical properties of MDPP/HMM treated cotton weft-knitted fabrics were studied. Combination of four different fixation methods - relaxation, swelling agent treatment, pad dry cure fixation, and wet fixation - were applied to flame retardant finish of cotton weft-knitted fabric with MDPP/HMM. As the results, 1. Swelling agent and wet fixation method helps FR agent penetrate the fiber efficiently. Interlock showed relatively higher values of LOI than single jersey. 2. Interlock showed relatively higher values of bending rigidity(B), shear rigidity(G) and coefficient of friction(MIU) than those of single jersey before and after flame resistant treatment. 3. An increase in internal volume of cotton fiber by relaxation treatment increased the bending rigidity(B), shear rigidity(G) and compressional energy(WC). 4. The cotton weft-knitted fabric treated wet fixation, which crossliked FR agent efficiently, showed higher bending rigidity, shear rigidity(G) and lower compressional energy(WC). Retention of swelling ability of cotton weft-knitted fabrics treated with MDPP/HMM, which increased the internal volume of cotton weft-knitted fabric, showed lower bending rigidity.

In this study, an improved HMM based recognition model is proposed for online English and Korean handwritten characters. The pattern elements of the handwriting model are sub character strokes and ligatures. To deal with the problem of handwriting style variations, a modified Hierarchical Clustering approach is introduced to partition different writing styles into several classes. For each of the English letters and each primitive grapheme in Korean characters, one HMM that models the temporal and spatial variability of the handwriting is constructed based on each class. Then the HMMs of Korean graphemes are concatenated to form the Korean character models. The recognition of handwritten characters is implemented by a modified level building algorithm, which incorporates the Korean character combination rules within the efficient network search procedure. Due to the limitation of the HMM based method, a post-processing procedure that takes the global and structural features into account is proposed. Experiments showed that the proposed recognition system achieved a high writer independent recognition rate on unconstrained samples of both English and Korean characters. The comparison with other schemes of HMM-based recognition was also performed to evaluate the system.

This study proposes an approach to the performance improvement of EMG(Electromyogram) pattern recognition. MFCC(Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients)'s approach is molded after the characteristics of the human hearing organ. While it supplies the most typical feature in frequency domain, it should be reorganized to detect the features in EMG signal. And the dynamic aspects of EMG are important for a task, such as a continuous prosthetic control or various time length EMG signal recognition, which have not been successfully mastered by the most approaches. Thus, this paper proposes reorganized MFCC and HMM-GMM, which is adaptable for the dynamic features of the signal. Moreover, it requires an analysis on the most suitable system setting fur EMG pattern recognition. To meet the requirement, this study balanced the recognition-rate against the error-rates produced by the various settings when loaming based on the EMG data for each motion.

For a large corpus of time-aligned data, HMM based approaches are most widely used for automatic segmentation, providing a consistent and accurate phone labeling scheme. There are two methods for training in HMM. Flat starting method has a property that human interference is minimized but it has low accuracy. Bootstrap method has a high accuracy, but it has a defect that manual segmentation is required In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to minimize manual work and to improve the performance of automatic segmentation. At first phase, voiced, unvoiced and silence classification is performed for each speech data frame. At second phase, the phoneme sequence is aligned dynamically to the voiced/unvoiced/silence sequence according to the acoustic phonetic rules. Finally, using these segmented speech data as a bootstrap, phoneme model parameters based on HMM are trained. For the performance test, hand labeled ETRI speech DB was used. The experiment results showed that our algorithm achieved 10% improvement of segmentation accuracy within 20 ms tolerable error range. Especially for the unvoiced consonants, it showed 30% improvement.

Hydro-meteorological extremes are trivial in these days. Therefore, it is important to identify extreme hydrological events in advance to mitigate the damage due to the extreme events. In this context, exploring temporal distribution of sub-daily extreme rainfall at multiple rain gauges would informative to identify different states to describe severity of the disaster. This study proposehidden Markov chain model (HMM) based rainfall analysis tool to understand the temporal sub-daily rainfall patterns over South Korea. Hourly and daily rainfall data between 1961 and 2017 for 92 stations were used for the study. HMM was applied to daily rainfall series to identify an observed hidden state associated with rainfall frequency and intensity, and further utilized the estimated hidden states to derive a temporal distribution of daily extreme rainfall. Transition between states over time was clearly identified, because HMM obviously identifies the temporal dependence in the daily rainfall states. The proposed HMM was very useful tool to derive the temporal attributes of the daily rainfall in South Korea. Further, daily rainfall series were disaggregated into sub-daily rainfall sequences based on the temporal distribution of hourly rainfall data.

Intelligent monitoring, life entertainment, medical rehabilitation, and other fields are only a few examples where visual image technology is becoming increasingly sophisticated and playing a significant role. Recognizing Wushu, or martial arts, movements through the use of visual image technology helps promote and develop Wushu. In order to segment and extract the signals of Wushu movements, this study analyzes the denoising of the original data using the wavelet transform and provides a sliding window data segmentation technique. Wushu movement The Wushu movement recognition model is built based on the hidden Markov model (HMM). The HMM model is trained and taught with the help of the Baum-Welch algorithm, which is then enhanced using the frequency weighted training approach and the mean training method. To identify the dynamic Wushu movement, the Viterbi algorithm is used to determine the probability of the optimal state sequence for each Wushu movement model. In light of the foregoing, an HMM-based martial arts movements recognition model is developed. The recognition accuracy of the HMM model increases to 99.60% when the number of samples is 4,000, which is greater than the accuracy of the SVM (by 0.94%), the CNN (by 1.12%), and the BP (by 1.14%). From what has been discussed, it appears that the suggested system for detecting martial arts acts is trustworthy and effective, and that it may contribute to the growth of martial arts.

본 논문에서는 헬스 케어 시스템에서 효율적으로 질병을 관리할 수 있는 RDMS(Rough Set Theory based Disease Monitoring System)을 제안한다. RDMS는 DCM(Data Collection Module), RDRGM(RST based Disease Rule Generation Module), HMM(Healthcare Monitoring Module)로 구성된다. DCM은 바이오센서로부터 환자의 생체 정보를 수집하고, 데이터 처리 절차에 따라 RDMS DB에 저장한다. RDRGM은 RST의 코어와 속성의 지지율을 이용하여 질병 규칙을 생성한다. HMM은 DCM에 의해 수집된 환자 정보를 이용하여 환자의 질병에 대한 위험지수뿐만 아니라 질병에 대한 합병증에 관한 위험지수까지 분석함으로써 환자의 질병을 예측하고, 환자의 위험지수에 따라 환자, 주치의 등에 시각화된 환자의 정보를 전달한다. 또한, RDRGM에 의해 생성된 규칙들에 따라 환자의 의료정보, 현재의 환자건강상태, 환자 가족력 등을 비교분석하여 환자의 질병을 예측하고, 예측결과에 따라 환자 맞춤형 의료 서비스와 의료 정보를 신속하고 신뢰성 있게 제공할 수 있다.

A human sign language is generally composed of both static and dynamic gestures. Each gesture is represented by a hand shape, its position, and hand movement (for a dynamic gesture). One of the problems found in automated sign language translation is on segmenting a hand movement that is part of a transitional movement from one hand gesture to another. This transitional gesture conveys no meaning, but serves as a connecting period between two consecutive gestures. Based on the observation that many dynamic gestures as appeared in Thai sign language dictionary are of quasi-periodic nature, a method was developed to differentiate between a (meaningful) dynamic gesture and a transitional movement. However, there are some meaningful dynamic gestures that are of non-periodic nature. Those gestures cannot be distinguished from a transitional movement by using the signal quasi-periodicity. This paper proposes a hybrid method using a combination of the periodicity-based gesture segmentation method with a HMM-based gesture classifier. The HMM classifier is used here to detect dynamic signs of non-periodic nature. Combined with the periodic-based gesture segmentation method, this hybrid scheme can be used to identify segments of a transitional movement. In addition, due to the use of quasi-periodic nature of many dynamic sign gestures, dimensionality of the HMM part of the proposed method is significantly reduced, resulting in computational saving as compared with a standard HMM-based method. Through experiment with real measurement, the proposed method's recognition performance is reported.

본 논문에서는 좌-우향은닉 마코프 모델 (Left-Right Hidden Markov Model)에서 상태결정을 갖는 음성향상방법을 제안하였다. 은닉 마코프 모델에 기초를 둔 음질향상 방법은 성능은 우수하나, 모든 상태에 대해서 음질향상 알고리즘을 계산하므로, 계산량이 많고, 메모리가 많이 필요하여 실시간 처리에 부적절하다. 좌-우향 은닉 마코프 모델은 마코프 모델을 좌측에서 우측으로의 전이만 허용하는 모델로 단순화시켜 현재 상태에서 현재 상태나 다음 상태로 전이될 수 있는 특성을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는, 좌-우향 은닉 마코프 모델에서 유사도비 테스트 (Log-Likelihood Ratio Test)를 이용하여 현재 음성의 상태를 결정하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 현재 음성의 상태를 알고 있다면, 현재 상태에 대해서만 음질향상 알고리즘을 계산하므로, 계산량이 줄어든다. 제안된 방법의 성능 평가를 위하여 음질 향상 시간과 신호 대 잡음비를 비교하였다. 제안된 방법은 기존의 방법에 비해 음질향상의 결과는 약 0.2∼0.4 dB 정도 떨어졌지만, 계산량을 많이 줄일 수 있었다.
