  • The QRS complex in ECG analysis is possible to obtain much information that is helpful for diagnosing different types of cardiovascular disease. This paper presents the preprocessor method to detect R-peak, RR interval, and HRV in wireless sensor node. The derivative of the electrocardiogram is efficiency of preprocessing method for resource hungry wireless sensor node with low computation. We have implemented R-peak and RR interval detection application based on dECG for wireless sensor node. The sensor node only transfers meaning parameter of ECG. Thus, implementation of sensor node can save power, reduce traffic, and eliminate congestion in a WSN.

  • This paper introduces a new preprocessing scheme to replace original data of gray scale images with particular ordered data so that performance of lossless compression can be improved more efficiently. As a kind of preprocessing technique to maximize performance of entropy encoder, the proposed method converts the input image data into more compressible form. Before encoding a stream of the input image, the proposed preprocessor counts co-occurrence frequencies for neighboring pixel pairs. Then, it replaces each pair of adjacent gray values with particular ordered numbers based on the investigated co-occurrence frequencies. When compressing ordered image using entropy encoder, we can expect to raise compression rate more highly because of enhanced statistical feature of the input image. In this paper, we show that lossless compression rate increased by up to 37.85% when comparing results from compressing preprocessed and non-preprocessed image data using entropy encoder such as Huffman, Arithmetic encoder.

  • Speech enhancement techniques that remove surrounding noise are stressed to preprocessor of speech recognition. Among the various speech enhancement techniques, Codebook-based Speech Enhancement (CBSE) operates efficiently in non-stationary noise environments. But, CBSE has some problems that inaccurate gains can be estimated if mismatch occur between input noisy signal and trained speech/noise codevectors. In this paper, the Normalized Weighting Factor (NWF) is calculated by long-term noise estimation algorithm based on Signal-to-Noise Ratio, compensated to the conventional inaccurate gains. The proposed CBSE shows better performance than conventional CBSE.

  • CAD/CAM program developers have made substantial progress in enabling engineers to design, analyze, visualize, visualize, and simulate the performance of structures and systems. Many researchers, however, agree that there is still a way to go before the existing commercial computer software can be used in ship structural analysis to their full potential as solvers which can identify opportunities to reduce man-hours and cut costs. CAD systems used for these works in ship yards are general-purposed and not custom-tailored for ship structures, which force end-users to do tiresome and routine works. The new preprocessor "MeshGen" announced in this study can load several ship types and user-friendly generate their FE meshes employing the object-oriented approach based on the parametric and top-down design. Also "MeshGen" reduces dramatically the time required to prepare CAD models under window-based environments on desktop personal computers and makes it much easier and faster for end-users to change topology and material properties.

  • This paper presents a new layout language, HAN-LALA (HANyang LAyout LAnguage), to automate the LSI/VLSI layout design. HAN-LALA is a C extension, which is easy to describe the layout. As HAN-LALA is directly compiled with no preprocessor, it renders easy debugging and short design time. For the technology independent layout design, the design rules and the process technologies are organized into seperate modules. The related objects are grouped and the placement is performed on the groups. Also the various routing modules including a river routing module and the one which can consider the forbidden regions make the layout design error-free without detailed descriptions of the layout.

  • In stereo acoustic echo canceller scheme, coefficients of adaptive filter converge very slowly or misconverge to real acoustic echo path in receiving room. This is due to cross-correlation in stereo signals. In this paper, a new preprocess algorithm is proposed to improve the performance of stereo AEC(acoustic echo canceller) without computational burden. The proposed algorithm reduces cross-correlation using Gram-Schmidt orthogonality principles and nonlinear filtering. Computer simulations demonstrate that this algorithm performs well compared to conventional ones. When the acoustic path of transmitting room is changed, stereo AEC using proposed algorithm is well performed.

  • Data communication is the transmission of coded information between terminals and computers or between multiple computers. A large, complex, and geographically dispersed present industrial society requires processing of real-time inputs that must be collected from many different locations and production of real-time outpts that must be distributed to many defferent locations. As one of many alternatives to meet the above requirement, a data communication system can be used.

  • Exhaust system is composed of several parts. Among, them , design of muffler system strongly influences on engine efficiency and noise reduction. So , through comprehension of flow characteristics inside muffler is necessary . In this study , three-dimensional steady and unsteady compressible flow analysis was performed to understand the flow characteristics, pressure loss and amplitude variation of pulsating pressure. The computational grid generation was carried out using commercial preprocessor ICEM CFD/CAE. And the three-dimensional fluid motion inside the muffler was analyzed by STAR-CD, the computational fluid dynamics code. RNG k-$\varepsilon$ tubulence model was applied to consider the complexity of the geometry and fluid motion. The steady and unsteady flow field inside muffler such as velocity distribution, pulsating pressure and pressure loss was examined. In case of unsteady state analysis, velocity of inlet region was converted from measured pulsating pressure. Experimental measurement of pressure and temperature was carried out to provide the boundary and initial condition for computational study under three engine operating conditions. As a result of this study, we could identify the flow characteristics inside the muffler and obtain the pressure loss, amplitude variation of pulsating exhaust gas.

  • 기계번역이나 정보검색 등에 적용되는 자연언어처리기술에 있어서 구문분석은 매우 중요한 위치를 차지한다. 하지만, 문장의 길이가 증가함에 따라 구문분석의 복잡도는 크게 증가하게 된다. 이를 해결하기 위한 많은 노력 중에서 전처리기의 지원을 통해 구문분석기의 부담을 줄이려는 방법이 있다. 본 논문에서는 구문분석의 애매성과 복잡성을 감소시키기 위해 유한상태 변환기 (Finite-State-Transducer FSI)를 이용한 전처리기를 제안한다. 유한상태 변환기는 사전표현, 단어분할, 품사태깅 등에 널리 사용되어 왔는데, 본 논문에서는 유한상태 변환기를 이용하여 형태소 분석된 문장에서 시간표현 등의 제한된 표현들을 구문요소화하는 전처리기를 설계 및 구현하였다. 본 논문에서는 기계번역기에서의 구문분석기 뿐만 아니라 변환지식의 모듈화를 지원하기 위해 유한상태 변환기를 이용하여 시간표현 등의 부분적인 표현들을 번역하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한 유한상태 변환기의 편리한 작성을 위하여 유한상태 변환기 작성 지원도구를 구현하였다. 본 논문에서는 전처리기의 적용을 통해 구문분석기의 부담을 덜어 주며 기계번역기의 변환부분의 일부를 성공적으로 담당할 수 있음을 보여 준다.
