Locating reinforcing bars, in particular to know their accurate depths and horizontal distances, is very important in radar inspection of concrete structures. By the way, it is not easy for an accurate depth and horizontal distance estimation of reinforcing bars in concrete structures by the radar test. This problem can be solved by synthetic aperture radar method. To improve the vertical and horizontal resolution of reinforcing bars in concrete, synthetic aperture radar method was examined in this study.

Thompson's (1990) adaptive cluster sampling is a promising sampling technique to ensure effective representation of rare or localized population units in the sample. We consider the problem of simultaneous estimation of the numbers of earners through a number of rural unorganized industries of which some are concentrated in specific geographic locations and demonstrate how the performance of a conventional Rao-Hartley-Cochran (RHC, 1962) estimator can be improved upon by using auxiliary information in the form of generalized regression (greg) estimators and then how further improvements are also possible to achieve by adopting adaptive cluster sampling.

Several reasons such as no free lunch theorem indicate that there is not a universal Feature selection (FS) technique that outperforms other ones. Moreover, some approaches such as using synthetic dataset, in presence of large number of FS techniques, are very tedious and time consuming task. In this study to tackle the issue of dependency of estimation accuracy on the selected FS technique, a methodology based on the heterogeneous ensemble is proposed. The performance of the major learning algorithms of neural network (i.e. the FFNN-BR, the FFNN-LM) in combination with the diverse FS techniques (i.e. the NCA, the F-test, the Kendall's tau, the Pearson, the Spearman, and the Relief) and different combination techniques of the heterogeneous ensemble (i.e. the Min, the Median, the Arithmetic mean, and the Geometric mean) are considered. The target parameters/transients of Bushehr nuclear power plant (BNPP) are examined as the case study. The results show that the Min combination technique gives the more accurate estimation. Therefore, if the number of FS techniques is m and the number of learning algorithms is n, by the heterogeneous ensemble, the search space for acceptable estimation of the target parameters may be reduced from n × m to n × 1. The proposed methodology gives a simple and practical approach for more reliable and more accurate estimation of the target parameters compared to the methods such as the use of synthetic dataset or trial and error methods.

본 연구에서는 360° 파노라마의 깊이 영상을 추정하는 딥러닝 구조를 제안한다. 이전 연구들에서는 딥러닝 네트워크를 학습시키기 위해 렌더링된 360° 파노라마 데이터 셋을 사용했다. 하지만, 렌더링된 파노라마 데이터 셋은 실제로 촬영된 파노라마 데이터 셋과 다르기 때문에, 이전 연구들의 네트워크는 실제로 촬영된 파노라마에 대해선 깊이 영상을 정확히 추정할 수가 없었다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 도메인 적응을 사용해서 렌더링된 파노라마와 실제로 촬영된 파노라마가 공유하는 특징들을 네트워크가 학습하게 했다. 실험을 통해 우리의 방식이 렌더링된 파노라마에 대해선 우수한 성능을 유지하면서 실제로 촬영된 파노라마에 대해서도 정확한 깊이 영상을 추정하는 것을 볼 수 있다.

This paper proposes a synchronization method of synthetic facial iamge sequences and synthetic speech. The LP-PSOLA synthesizes the speech for each demi-syllable. We provide the 3,040 demi-syllables for unlimited synthesis of the Korean speech. For synthesis of the Facial image sequences, the paper defines the total 11 fundermental patterns for the lip shapes of the Korean consonants and vowels. The fundermental lip shapes allow us to pronounce all Korean sentences. Image synthesis method assigns the fundermental lip shapes to the key frames according to the initial, the middle and the final sound of each syllable in korean input text. The method interpolates the naturally changing lip shapes in inbetween frames. The number of the inbetween frames is estimated from the duration time of each syllable of the synthetic speech. The estimation accomplishes synchronization of the facial image sequences and speech. In speech synthesis, disk memory is required to store 3,040 demi-syllable. In synthesis of the facial image sequences, however, the disk memory is required to store only one image, because all frames are synthesized from the neutral face. Above method realizes synchronization of system which can real the Korean sentences with the synthetic speech and the synthetic facial iage sequences.

계단 주파수 레이더는 송신 펄스의 주파수를 일정한 간격으로 증가시켜 넓은 합성 대역폭을 생성함으로써 고해상도 거리추정을 구현하는 방식이다. 그러나 이동표적의 경우에는 거리-도플러 결합 현상으로 인해 정확한 거리 추정이 어렵게 된다. 본 논문에서는 초기에 코히어런트 펄스열을 갖는 계단 주파수 레이더 파형을 이용하여 이동표적의 속도를 추정하고, 거리-도플러 결합 현상을 보상함으로써 얻어지는 고해상도 거리 추정 과정을 분석하고, 시뮬레이션을 통해 이를 검증하였다.

Synthetic unit hydrograph equations for rainfall run-off characteristics analysis and estimation of design flood have long and quite frequently been presented, the Snyder and SCS synthetic unit hydrograph. The major inputs to the Snyder and SCS synthetic unit hydrograph are lag time and peak coefficient. In this study, the methods for estimating lag time and peak coefficient for small watersheds proposed by Zhao and McEnroe(1999) were applied to the Kum river basin in Korea. We investigated lag times of relatively small watersheds in the Kum river basin in Korea. For this investigation the recent rainfall and stream flow data for 10 relatively small watersheds with drainage areas ranging from 134 to 902 square kilometers were gathered and used. 250 flood flow events were identified along the way, and the lag time for the flood events was determined by using the rainfall and stream flow data. Lag time is closely related with the basin characteristics of a given drainage area such as channel length, channel slope, and drainage area. A regression analysis was conducted to relate lag time to the watershed characteristics. The resulting regression model is as shown below: ※ see full text (equations) In the model, Tlag is the lag time in hours, Lc is the length of the main river in kilometers and Se is the equivalent channel slope of the main channel. The coefficient of determinations (r$^2$)expressed in the regression equation is 0.846. The peak coefficient is not correlated significantly with any of the watershed characteristics. We recommend a peak coefficient of 0.60 as input to the Snyder unit-hydrograph model for the ungauged Kum river watersheds

This paper presents a simple method of rotational and translational motion estimation for digital image stabilization. The scheme first computes the rotation center by taking least squares of selected local velocity vectors, and the rotational angle is found from special subset of motion vectors. And then translational motion can be estimated by the relation among movement of rotation center, rotation angle and translation movement. To show the effectiveness of our approach, the synthetic images are evaluated, resulting in better performance.

The optimum maximum voiced frequency (MVF) estimation-based two-band excitation for hidden Markov model-based speech synthesis is presented. An analysis-by-synthesis scheme is adopted for the MVF estimation which leads to the minimum spectral distortion of synthesized speech. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly improves synthetic speech quality.

물리적으로 제한된 길이의 어레이를 확장함으로써 소나 시스템의 표적 탐지 성능을 향상시키기 위한 합성 어퍼쳐 소나에 대한 실험을 하였다. 어퍼쳐 영역이나 빔 영역에서 어레이를 합성하는 기존의 실험에서는 어레이의 형상을 선형으로 가정하기 때문에 실제 상황과 오차가 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 왜곡된 어레이의 형상을 추정하여 왜곡을 보상한 후에 어퍼쳐 영역에서 어레이를 합성하는 실험을 하였다. 실험 데이터로는 한국 근해에서 견인 어레이로부터 획득한 데이터를 이용하였으며 실측된 데이터만으로 중첩되는 부어레이 간의 시ㆍ공간적인 위상 차이를 보상함으로써 어레이 길이를 확장하였다. 실험 결과 합성에 의해서 방향 탐지 분해능이 향상되는 것을. 확인할 수 있었고, 5번 합성으로 3dB 빔폭이 약 70%줄어드는 결과를 얻었다.
