The content of lysophosphatidyl choline (LPC) in wheat starch lipids from six cultivar representing three classes of wheat was determined by a high performance liquid chromatography using UV-detection (HPLC-UV). The HPLC-UV assay had a sensitivity of LPC concentrations above $5{\mu}g/50{\mu}l$ and required 80 minutes per chromatogram.

본 논문에서는 한국어 음성인식 시스템의 성능 향상을 위해 청각 주파수 분해능을 가진 MEL-LPC Cepstrum을 음소단위의 HMM(Hidden Markov Model)을 기반으로 하는 인식 시스템에 적용하여 그 결과를 비교 검토하였다. 선형예측(LP) 분석 후에 후처리로서 주파수를 왜곡시킨 LPC-MEL 분석이 계산량이 적고 효과적이라 일반적으로 많이 사용되고 있으나 주파수 분해능은 많이 개선되지 않는다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 주파수 분해능을 개선하기 위해, 원 음성신호로부터 직접적으로 멜주파수로 왜곡시킨 후 선형 예측 분석을 수행하는 MEL-LPC 분석방법을 이용한 음소기반의 화자 독립 음성인식 시스템을 구성하여 기존의 LPC-MEL 분석방법과 비교실험을 통하여 MEL-LPC 분석방법의 유효성을 검토하였다. 실험에 사용한 음성 데이터베이스는 음소 및 단어 인식실험에서는 ETRI 445단어 DB, 연속 숫자음인식 실험에서는 KLE 4연속 숫자음 DB를 사용하였다. 화자 독립 음소인식 실험의 경우, 묵음을 제외한 47개의 유사 음소에 대하여 4상태 3출력의 Left-to-Right 모델을이용하였다. 단어 및 연속 숫자음 인식 실험의 경우, 유한상태 네트워크에 의한 OPDP법을 이용하였다. 화자 독립 음소, 단어 및 4연속 숫자음 인식 실험결과, 기존의 LPC-MEL Cepstrum을 사용한 경우보다 MEL-LPC Cepstum을 사용한 경우가 더 높은 인식률을 나타내어 한국어 음성인식 시스템에서 MEL-LPC 분석방법의 유효성을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper proposes a speaker recognition algorithm using a perceptron neural network and LPC (Linear Predictive Coding) cepstrum coefficients. The proposed algorithm first detects the voiced sections at each frame. Then, the LPC cepstrum coefficients which have speaker characteristics are obtained by the linear predictive analysis for the detected voiced sections. To classify the obtained LPC cepstrum coefficients, a neural network is trained using the LPC cepstrum coefficients. In this experiment, the performance of the proposed algorithm was evaluated using the speech recognition rates based on the LPC cepstrum coefficients and the neural network.

Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) has been reported to be responsible for the sustained activation of protein kinase C (PKC). As chondroqenesis is known to be regulated by PKC, this study was performed to investigate the effects of LPC on chondrogenesis of chick limb bud mesenchymes in vitro. LPC treatment of mesenchymes during micromass culture significantly enhanced chondrogenic differentiation. The most effective time of LPC on the stimulation of chondrogenesis was the first day of micromass culture. Analysis of LPC effects on the expression of PKC isoforms revealed that LPC treatment increased expression of PKCa, among the multiple PKC isoforms, in the membrane fraction on day one of culture. The stimulatory effect of LPC on chondrogenesis was abolished if PKCa was down regulated by the prolonged treatment of cells with phorbol ester. The results suqqest that LPC promotes chondrogenesis through the activation of PKCa at the early stage of chondrogenic differentiation.

In this thesis, experiment have performed with the speaker recognition using multilayer feedforward neural network(MFNN) model using Korean and Japanese digits . The 5 adult males and 5 adult females pronounciate form 0 to 9 digits of Korean, Japanese 7 times. And then, they are extracted characteristics coefficient through Pitch deletion algorithm, LPC analysis, and LPC Cepstral analysis to generate input pattern of MFNN. 5 times among them are used to train a neural network, and 2 times is used to measure the performance of neural network. Both Korean and Japanese, Pitch coefficients is about 4%t more enhanced than LPC or LPC Cepstral coefficients.

Monitoring and diagnosis of the operating machines are very important for safety operation and maintenance in the industrial fields. These machines are most rotating machines and the diagnosis of the machines has been researched for long time. We can easily see the faulted signal of the rotating machines from the changes of the signals in frequency. The Linear Predictive Coding(LPC) is introduced for signal analysis in frequency domain. In this paper, we propose fault detection and diagnosis method using the Linear Predictive Coding(LPC) and residual signal energy. We applied our method to the induction motors depending on various status of faulted condition and could obtain good results.

In this thesis, we perform the experiment of speaker recognition by identifying vowels in the pronunciation of each speaker using Adaptive Resource Theory 2(ART2) model. The 5 adult males and 5 adult females pronounce from 0 to 9 digits. We extract the vowels from the pronunciation of each speaker first, we are extracted characteristic coefficient through a pitch detection algorithm, a LPC analysis, and a LPC cepstral analysis to generate an input pattern of ART2. The experimental results showed that pitch coefficients are somewhat more enhanced than LPC or LPC cepstral coefficient.

This paper presents the VHSIC Hardware Description Language(VHDL) implementation of the Fixed Point Covariance Lattice(FLAT) algorithm for an Linear Predictive Coding(LPC) analysis and its related algorithms, such as the forth order high pass Infinite Impulse Response(IIR) filter, covariance matrix calculation, and Spectral Smoothing Technique(SST) in the Vector Sum Exited Linear Predictive(VSELP) speech coder that has been Selected as the standard speech coder for the North America and Japanese digital cellular. Existing Digital Signal Processor(DSP) chips used in digital cellular phones are derived from general purpose DSP chips, and thus, these DSP chips may not be optimal and effective architectures are to be designed for the above mentioned algorithms. Then we implemented the VHDL code based on the C code, Finally, we verified that VHDL results are the same as C code results for real speech data. The implemented VHDL code can be used for performing logic synthesis and for designing an LPC Application Specific Integrated Circuit(ASOC) chip and DsP chips. We first developed the C language code to investigate the correctness of algorithms and to compare C code results with VHDL code results block by block.

This paper attempts to acoustically examine the place of articulation of Korean affricates. In order to pursue an acoustic analysis of where Korean affricates are articulated, we resort to LPC spectra of the Korean plain affricate /c/ in intervocalic position, based on theoretical assumptions (e.g., Stevens 1993a), and compare the data to that of the Korean alveolar consonants /t, s/ in the same context. Our phonetic results show that in intervocalic position, the Korean plain affricate is alveolar just like the Korean alveolar consonants /t, s/, supporting the articulatory studies of $Skali{\check{c}}kov{\acute{a}}$ (1960) and Kim (1997).
