In this paper, we propose a use of confidence vector as an intermediate input feature for multi-stage based speech recognition architecture to improve recognition accuracy. A multi-stage speech recognition structure is introduced as a method to reduce the computational complexity of the decoding procedure and then accomplish faster speech recognition. Conventional multi-stage speech recognition is usually composed of three stages, acoustic search, lexical search, and acoustic re-scoring. In this paper, we focus on improving the accuracy of the lexical decoding by introducing a confidence vector as an input feature instead of phoneme which was used typically. We take experimental results on 220K Korean Point-of-Interest (POI) domain and the experimental results show that the proposed method contributes on improving accuracy.

A formal synthesis of Lespedezol $A_1$ has been accomplished. The key feature of this synthesis involves an efficient and powerful palladium-catalyzed cross coupling reaction of diazocarbonyl compound with bis(benzyloxy)phenylboronic acid for the key 3-aryl-chromen-4-one intermediate, which was difficult to be prepared by Suzuki coupling reaction in the previous study. The versatile and efficient synthetic procedure would facilitate synthesis of pterocarpenes and their derivatives.

A concise synthesis of flurbiprofen, a member of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory 2-arylpropionic acids, has been accomplished. The key feature of this synthesis involves successive palladium-catalyzed cross coupling reactions. In particular, a 2-arylacylate intermediate, which easily converted to the key 2-arylpropionic acid scaffold, was afforded by a versatile palladium-catalyzed cross coupling reaction between diazopropanate and bisphenylboronic acid. This synthetic procedure would facilitate synthesis of the flurbiprofen and anti-inflammatory 2-arylpropionic acid derivatives.

This study is aimed at analyzing earth conception the nine pre service teachers who are majoring in earth science education and classifying a special feature from the ontological categories. Open ended questionnaires and semi structured interviews which meant to contribute to identifying ontological categories of concepts involving study area were designed. Pre service teachers' ontological category about earth conception most showed to dynamic and proto process. In the results show that many pre service teachers recognize simply the conception to a material, a condition and a conversion of the state changing. Most of the pre service teachers show their intermediate understanding level about the earth inner construction according to the analyzed results of the drawing tasks and interviews. The main alternative conceptions show them through a definition of the plate, a wording definition between lithosphere and asthenosphere, a feature of the plate boundary, a heat convection in the earth inner, the earth inner heat source, the earth inner structure, a physical feature of the mantle.

본 논문에서는 형상 특징자인 열 커널 인증 (Heat Kernel Signature, HKS)를 기반으로 강인한 3D 모델 해싱을 제안한다. 키와 매개변수에 의존한 형상 특징자 기반 3D 모델 해싱을 제안한다. 제안한 방법에서는 Mesh Laplace 연산자의 고유치와 고유벡터에 의하여 각 꼭지점에 대한 전역 및 국부 타임 HKS 계수를 구한 다음, 이 계수들을 정방형 2D 셀로 군집화한다. 그리고 각 셀에 할당된 HKS 계수 쌍의 거리 가중치 기반으로 정의된 특징계수와 랜덤 계수 키와의 조합에 의하여 중간 해쉬 계수를 생성한 다음, 이진화 과정에 의하여 최종 이진 해쉬를 생성한다. 본 실험에서는 3D 범용 툴을 이용한 다양한 기하하적 공격과 위상학적 공격을 통하여 강인성을 평가하였고, 모델과 키 조합에 대한 해쉬의 유일성을 평가하였다. 또한 인증 범위를 만족히는 공격 세기를 측정함으로써 모델 공간성을 평가하였다. 실험결과로부터 제안한 3D 모델 해싱이 기존 해싱에 비하여 강인성 모델 공간성 및 유일성이 우수함을 확인하였다.

Metacercariae of Acanthoparyphium marilae Yamaguti, 1934 (Digenea: Echinostomatidae) were discovered in an intertidal clam, Mactra veneriformis, in a southwestern coastal area of the Republic of Korea. A total of 128 metacercariae were detected from 10 clams examined. They were round, 320 m in average diameter, with 23 collar spines. They were fed experimentally to chicks, and 10 days later adult flukes were obtained. The adults were morphologically characterized by the head collar with a single row of 23 dorsally uninterrupted spines, without special end group spines, a round ventral sucker, 2 round and tandem testes, and vitellaria extending at lateral fields from the posterior extremity not beyond the middle level of the posterior testis. The most characteristic feature of this species was the limited distribution of vitellaria, which differs from Acanthoparyphium tyosenense Yamaguti, 1939, the metacercariae of which are encysted in the same mollusk species. This is the first report in which the metacercariae of this species were detected, and the intertidal bivalve, M. veneriformis, has been identified as a second intermediate host for A. marilae.

Link-to-column connections in Eccentrically Braced Frames (EBFs) have critical role in their safety and seismic performance. Accordingly, in this study, contribution of supplemental stiffeners on hysteretic behavior of the link-to-column connection is investigated. Considered stiffeners are placed on both sides and parallel to the link web between the column face and the first stiffener of the link. Hysteretic behaviors of the link beams with supplemental stiffeners are numerically investigated using a pre-validated numerical model in ANSYS. It turned out that supplemental stiffeners can change energy dissipation mechanism of intermediate links from shear-flexure to shear. Both rectangular and trapezoidal supplemental stiffeners are studied. Moreover, optimal placement of the supplemental stiffeners is also investigated. Obtained results indicate a discrepancy of less than 9% in maximum link shear of the numerical and experimental specimens. This indicates that the numerical results are in good agreement with those obtained from the test. Trapezoidal supplemental stiffeners improve rotational capacity of the link. Moreover, use of two supplemental stiffeners at both ends of the link can more effectively improve hysteretic behavior of intermediate links. Supplemental stiffeners would also alleviate the imposed demands on the connections. This latter feature is more pronounced in the case of two supplemental stiffeners at both ends of the link.

Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) generates image features widely used to match objects in different images. Previous work on hardware-based SIFT implementation requires excessive internal memory and hardware logic [1]. In this paper, a new hardware organization is proposed to implement SIFT with less memory and hardware cost than the previous work. To this end, a parallel Gaussian filter bank is adopted to eliminate the buffers that store intermediate results because parallel operations allow all intermediate results available at the same time. Furthermore, the processing order is changed from the raster-scan order to the block-by-block order so that the line buffer size storing the source image is also reduced. These techniques trade the reduction of memory size with a slight increase of the execution time and external memory bandwidth. As a result, the memory size is reduced by 94.4%. The proposed hardware for SIFT implementation includes the Descriptor generation block, which is omitted in the previous work [1]. The addition of the hardwired descriptor generation improves the computation speed by about 30 times when compared with the previous work.

Adaptability is the most promising feature to be applied in future robust multimedia applications. In this paper, we propose the Direct Algorithm to improve the degree of satisfaction at heterogeneous receivers in multi-layered multicast video environments. The algorithm relies on a mechanism that dynamically controls the rates of the video layers and is based on feedback control packets sent by the receivers. The algorithm also addresses scalability issues by implementing a merging procedure at intermediate nodes in order to avoid packet implosion at the source in the case of large multicast groups. The proposed scheme is optimized to achieve high global video quality and reduced bandwidth requirements. We also propose the Direct Algorithm with a virtual number of layers. The virtual layering scheme induces intermediate nodes to keep extra states of the multicast session, which reduces the video degradation for all the receivers. The results show that the proposed scheme leads to improved global video quality at heterogeneous receivers with no cost of extra bandwidth.
