NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index), which is broadly used as short-term data composite, is an important parameter for climate change and long-term land surface monitoring. Although atmospheric correction is performed, NDVI dramatically appears several low peak noise in the long-term time series. They are related to various contaminated sources, such as cloud masking problem and wet ground condition. This study suggests a simple method through harmonic analysis for reducing NDVI noise using SPOT/VGT NDVI 10-day MVC data. The harmonic analysis method is compared with the polynomial regression method suggested previously. The polynomial regression method overestimates the NDVI values in the time series. The proposed method showed an improvement in NDVI correction of low peak and overestimation.

Floor damping materials used in floating floor system to diminish the floor noise have been made with low density and dynamic stiffness. Owing to this low density and dynamic stiffness, the deflection in these materials under long-term loading and cracking of the floor finishing mortar in the floating floor system may occur. This paper presents the results of long-term loading effects on the deflection of different types of floor damping materials. The experimental program involved the long-term loading tests for 490 days loading period on sixteen specimens. Specimens were classified as DM1(Damping Materials) to DM8, depending upon the four main parameters; types, bottom shapes and densities of floor damping materials and amount of loading. Results indicated that the long-term deflection of all specimens of damping materials remained unchanged after 200 days at all loading amounts, except the specimens made up of Polystrene, in which long-term deflection remained unchanged after 160 days at 250 N load and 100 days 500 N load. In this paper, two types of correlation expressions were shown in the deflection range prior to the range where deflection remained constant; two analyses by ISO 20392 and linear regression. In comparison of two analyses and experimental results on the difference of deflection of 16 specimens, the difference of deflection was below 0.4 mm in those analyses in case of that total deflection was below 10 mm. Restrictively, it was judged that the analysis for the deflection of specimens made up of Polystrene is more appropriate using ISO 20392.

Accurate prediction of wind speed and power is vital for enhancing the efficiency of wind energy systems. Numerous solutions have been implemented to date, demonstrating their potential to improve forecasting. Among these, deep learning is perceived as a revolutionary approach in the field. However, despite their effectiveness, the noise present in the collected data remains a significant challenge. This noise has the potential to diminish the performance of these algorithms, leading to inaccurate predictions. In response to this, this study explores a novel feature engineering approach. This approach involves altering the data input shape in both Convolutional Neural Network-Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) and Autoregressive models for various forecasting horizons. The results reveal substantial enhancements in model resilience against noise resulting from step increases in data. The approach could achieve an impressive 83% accuracy in predicting unseen data up to the 24th steps. Furthermore, this method consistently provides high accuracy for short, mid, and long-term forecasts, outperforming the performance of individual models. These findings pave the way for further research on noise reduction strategies at different forecasting horizons through shape-wise feature engineering.

This paper presents a transient noise reduction system in a speech signal. The proposed transient noise reduction system utilizes a median filter to reduce the transient noise. Since the median filter can distort speech during the noise reduction, a long-term prediction (LTP) filter is adopted as a pre-processor to minimize speech distortion. The speech information preserved by the LTP filter is re-synthesized after reducing the noise. This paper verifies the weakness of a linear prediction (LP) filter and the superiority of the LTP filter for preserving the speech component in transient noise presence environment. Applying the proposed system, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of output is improved by 8dB in both speech and noise presence region, and PESQ score is increased by 1 point comparing with noisy input.

For the purpose of presenting the basic data for the establishment of control measures on the long-term noise exposed workers, this study was carried out on the relationship between personal noise exposed dose and hearing loss on the 67 male workers whose hearing threshold had exceeded 40 dB in 4,000 Hz, from 1990 to 1992. Conclusively, the level of hearing loss was significantly related to personal noise exposed dose in follow-up period. We considered that personal noise exposed dose which was measured by the personal noise dosemeter was more efficient rather than the noise level of workplace for the evaluating the long-term change of hearing acuity. And although in the case of not-diagnosed as noise induced hearing loss. it was suspected that the active control programs such as improvement of noisy environment or early transfer to proper workplace were needed on the workers who exposed with over 90 dB in personal noise exposed dose.

The audible noise produced by corona discharge in high voltage transmission lines is the most important line design consideration. In this paper, more accurate and useful formulas for predicting the A-weighted audible noise during heavy and light rain in alternative current (AC) transmission lines are proposed through comparison with the existing formulas. The proposed formulas are developed by the applications of evolutionary computations (ECs) to audible noise data base from long-term measurement.

Marine organisms in Antarctica live in an environment which exhibits variability in physical processes over a wide range of temporal scales, from seconds to millennia. This time scale tends to be correlated with the spatial scale over which a given process operates, though this relationship is influenced by biology. The way organisms respond to variability in the physical environment depends on the time-scale of that variability in relation to life-span. Short-term variations are perceived largely as noise and probably have little direct impact on ecology. Of much greater importance to organisms in Antarctica are seasonal and decadal variations. Although seasonality has long been recognised as a key feature of polar environments, the realization that decadal scale variability is important is relatively recent. Long-term change has always been a feature of polar environments and may be a key factor in the evolution of the communities we see today.

The purpose of this study is to establish the noise abatement procedures in Kimhae International Airport and also make noise limit and methods to monitor and detect an aircraft flying over Kimhae airport. First of all, noise monitoring system(NMS) should be set up, have a test and noise limit will be adjusted afterwards. Before applying Noise Abatement Procederes and noise limit, the amendment of Aviation Law 'article 108' required to proceed. The accumulative data and long term process of NMS will proceed and it is necessary to issue a notification of noise limit in phases.

Resilient materials are used to reduce the floor impact sound in apartment buildings. Since an on-dol layer is installed in the resilient materials' upper part, thickness deformation can be occur in the resilient material. It is necessary to check a thickness deformation grade for a long period of time. In this research, we measured thickness deformation over 400th day to the resilient materials(EPP, EPS, EVA) which is used in Korea. Although there was a difference according to the kind of measurement test specimens, it became clear that thickness was decreases as to time increased. The thickness deformation grade of ten years after was calculated based on the thickness measurement result. Compare with the calculated result and result of ISO 20392. Larger thickness deformation occurred in the measurement result of these research findings compare with the ISO standard.
