As one of the effective methods for researching the objective tinnitus detection, the GPIAS (Gap Pre-pulse Inhibition of Acoustic Startle) measurement has been used to verify the existence of animal tinnitus objectively. The level and pattern of the background sound presented prior to a startle pulse are closely related with the GPIAS results. But the effect of the starting point of the background sound on animal startle responses has not been reported yet. In this paper, we present the implementation of a GPIAS measurement system based on an unconstrained enclosure to avoid animals' excessive constraint stress and deal with the animals' growth. After the performance of our implemented system has been tested through the animal experiment using 4 SD-rats, the effect of starting point of stimulus background sound on the startle response has been studied by the use of our implemented system. Through the results, it is verified that our system can measure the inhibition of animal startle responses due the gap pre-pulse for GPIAS calculation and the background sound starting point does not significantly effect on the startle response and the GPIAS values if the background sound continues for more than 300msec before a gap pre-pulse is presented.

In this paper, to detect external sound frequency on the latticed structure, fiber optic sensor net using Sagnac interferometer was fabricated and tested. The latticed structure fabricated with dimension of 50cm in width and 50cm in height, the optical fiber, 50m in length, distributed and fixed on the latticed structure. Single mode fiber, a laser with 1,550nm in wavelength, 2${\times}$2 coupler were used. External sound signal applied to the fiber optic sensor net and the detected optical signals were compared and analyzed to the detected microphone signals against time and frequency domain. Based on the experimental results, fiber optic sensor net using Sagnac interferometer detected external sound frequency, effectively. This system can be expanded to the structural health monitoring system.

A common treatment for tinnitus rehabilitation is to use a device called a sound generator to continuously supplying the sound stimuli. The devices usually provides a sound called white noise, or pink noise, which are common in nature. In this paper, we developed a mobile system for tinnitus diagnostics and therapy using Android mobile applications. The first step for tinnitus diagnostics is detecting an exact tinnitus frequency of the patients, therefore we provide a bark scale tinnitus detection algorithm for fast and accurate diagnostics. Also, the system can provide various stimuli sounds including white noise, pink noise, brown noise, nature sounds, and binaural beats. Also we provides the therapeutic functions through questionnaires to solve existing problems of the patients.

In this paper, fiber optic sound and vibration monitoring sensor which is latticed shape structure based on Sagnac interferometer is fabricated and tested in laboratory conditions. To detect external vibrations surface mounted fibers on the latticed steel wire fence with a dimension of 170cm by 180cm is used. To detect external sound frequency the tightened fiber optic itself wire netting fence with a dimension of 50cm by 50cm is used. Experiments for the detection of the excited vibration and sound signals were performed. A small vibrator induced external vibration signal and it is applied to the latticed structure in the range of 100Hz to several kHz. External sound signal applied to the fiber optic sensor net using non-directional sound speaker. The detected optical signals were compared and analyzed to the detected both accelerometer and microphone signals in the time and frequency domain. Based on the experimental results, distributed fiber optic sensor using Sagnac interferometer detected effectively external vibration and sound signal and had a good performance. This system can be expanded to the monitoring of a significant system and to the structural health monitoring system.

본 논문에서는 깊은 신경망을 이용한 오디오 이벤트 검출 방법을 제안한다. 오디오 입력의 매 프레임에 대한 오디오 이벤트 확률을 feed-forward 신경망을 적용하여 생성한다. 매 프레임에 대하여 멜 스케일 필터 뱅크 특징을 추출한 후, 해당 프레임의 전후 프레임으로부터의 특징벡터들을 하나의 특징벡터로 결합하고 이를 feed-forward 신경망의 입력으로 사용한다. 깊은 신경망의 출력층은 입력 프레임 특징값에 대한 오디오 이벤트 확률값을 나타낸다. 연속된 5개 이상의 프레임에서의 이벤트 확률값이 임계값을 넘을 경우 해당 구간이 오디오 이벤트로 검출된다. 검출된 오디오 이벤트는 1초 이내에 동일 이벤트로 검출되는 동안 하나의 오디오 이벤트로 유지된다. 제안된 방법으로 구현된 오디오 이벤트 검출기는 UrbanSound8K와 BBC Sound FX자료에서의 20개 오디오 이벤트에 대하여 71.8%의 검출 정확도를 보였다.

Mine detection has been mainly studied with images of the forward-looking sonar. Forward-looking sonar assumes the propagation path of the sound wave as a straight path, creating the surrounding images. This might lead to errors in the detection by ignoring the refraction of the sound wave. In this study, we propose a mine localization method that can robustly identify the location of mines in an underwater environment by considering the refraction of sound waves. We propose a method of estimating the elevation angle of arrival of the target echo signal in a single receiver, and estimate the mine location by applying the estimated elevation angle of arrival to ray tracing. As a result of simulation, the method proposed in this paper was more effective in estimating the mine localization than the existing method that assumed the propagation path as a straight line.

능동-소나를 이용하여 수중표적을 탐지하는데 있어 소나탐지 성능은 잔향음에 많은 제한을 받는다. 해상풍은 해양에서 기포 형성에 중요한 역할을 한다. 그리고 기포는 유효한 산란체로서 잔향음에 기여한다. 본 연구에서는 중주파수 선저 고전형 능동소나를 운용 시 풍성기포가 음파전달에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 주파수 5, 7.5, 10kHz에 대해 기포층을 고려한 음원수심 3, 5, 10m에서의 능동 신호초과비 (Active Signal Excess:ASE)를 계산하였다. 해수면 부근의 음속변화는 해수면 잔향음 준위를 증가시키며, 능동 신호초과비를 변화시킨다 풍속이 10m/s에서 해수면 부근의 최대 탐지거리가 3km 이상 감소하였다. 그 원인은 풍성기포에 의한 해수면 방향으로의 굴절로 분석되었다.

2채널 방식을 이용하는 입체 음향 구현 방법은 멀티채널 방식에 비해 비용의 감소 효과 및 설치가 쉽다는 장점이 있으나 크로스토크(crosstalk)를 제거하는 것이 어려운 문제이다. 크로스토크를 제거하기 위해서는 머리의 위치를 정확하게 추정하는 것이 필수적이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 2채널 방식에서 3차원 입체 음향을 구현하기 위해 얼굴의 방향을 추정하기 위한 알고리즘을 제시한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 Haar-like 특징을 이용하여 얼굴을 검출하고 전처리 작업과 수학적 형태학을 이용한 두 눈의 위치를 검출하는 알고리즘을 이용, 얼굴이 향하고 있는 방위각을 검출한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 알고리즘은 기존의 제안되어진 방법들에 비해 적용 범위가 더 넓으며, 얼굴 방위각이 매우 안정적으로 검출됨을 실험을 통해 알 수 있었다.

Leak noise is a good source to identify the exact location of a leak point of underground water pipelines. Water leak generates broadband sound from a leak location and this sound propagation due to leak in water pipelines is not a non-dispersive wave any more because of the surrounding pipes and soil. However, the necessity of long-range detection of this leak location makes to identify low-frequency acoustic waves rather than high frequency ones. Acoustic wave propagation coupled with surrounding boundaries including cast iron pipes is theoretically analyzed and the wave velocity was confirmed with experiment. The leak locations were identified both by the acoustic emission (AE) method and the cross-correlation method. In a short-range distance, both the AE method and cross-correlation method are effective to detect leak position. However, the detection for a long-range distance required a lower frequency range accelerometers only because higher frequency waves were attenuated very quickly with the increase of propagation paths. Two algorithms for the cross-correlation function were suggested, and a long-range detection has been achieved at real underground water pipelines longer than 300m.
