  • This paper describes the acquisition modeling of an airborne target for target tracking simulation of infrared homing missiles. The modeling, of which key technologies are the sub-modeling for target infrared signature, atmospheric transmission, and receiver characteristics, shows the acquisition process of an airborne target under various tracking conditions determined by line-of-sight, distance, and atmospheric conditions. We confirm the validity of the modeling by applying it to simulations concerned with target tracking. The modeling gives a guideline to determine an optimum detector and a defection band for effective discrimination of the target among false targets.

  • In this paper, we proposed a new hearing aid algorithm to improve SNR(signal to noise ratio) of noisy speech signal and speech perception. The proposed hearing aid algorithm is a multi-band loudness compensation based independent component analysis (ICA). The proposed algorithm was compared with a conventional spectral subtraction algorithm on behind-the-ear type hearing aid. The proposed algorithm successfully separated a target speech signal from background noise and from a mixture of the speech signals. The algorithms were compared each other by means of SNR. The average improvement of SNR by ICA based algorithm was 16.64dB, whereas spectral subtraction algorithm was 8.67dB. From the clinical tests, we concluded that our proposed algorithm would help hearing aid user to hear clearly a target speech in noisy conditions.

  • In this paper we present an algorithm to discriminate an underwater target under track against an acoustic counter-measure(ACM) source, based on a sequential hypothesis test. The ACM source is separated from the target under track and generates, while drifting, measurements with false range and Doppler information. The purpose of the ACM is to mislead the target-tracking and to help the true target evade a pursuer. The algorithm uses as a test statistic a function of the innovation sequences from extended Kalman filters to estimate the target dynamics and the drifting position of the ACM source. Numerical experiments on various scenarios show that the proposed algorithm discriminates the target against an ACM source very fast with a high probability of success.

  • The purpose of the study was to explore ways to improve the test items on the Korean scholastic ability test. More specifically, the researchers investigated whether use of the target language in test items would make a difference in total scores, discriminatory power, and item difficulty. A total of 288 high school seniors participated in the study. The subjects were divided into the experimental group (N=145) and the control group (N=143). A 25-item test resembling the Korean scholastic ability test was administered to both groups. The experimental group was given items whose questions and alternatives were all presented in English, whereas the control group was given items whose questions and alternatives were presented in Korean only. Statistical analyses revealed that use of English vs. Korean in the questions and alternatives made a significant difference in total scores, item discrimination, and item difficulty level. The findings strongly suggest that use of English is one way to improve the quality of the Korean scholastic ability test by enhancing item discrimination and face validity. Considering that the test in question is a high-stakes exam in Korea, further research on how to improve the Korean scholastic ability test is urgently called for.

  • Two kinds of high resolution GCMs with the same spatial resolutions but with different schemes run by domestic and foreign agencies are used to clarify the usefulness and sensitivity of GCM for water resources applications for Korea. One is AMIP-II (Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project-II) type GCM simulation results done by ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) and the other one is AMIP-I type GCM simulation results done by METRI (Korean Meteorological Research Institute). Observed mean areal precipitation, temperature, and discharge values on 7 major river basins were used for target variables. Monte Carlo simulation was used to establish the significance of the estimator values. Sensitivity analyses were done in accordance with the proposed ways. Through the various tests, discrimination condition is sensitive for the distribution of the data. Window size is sensitive for the data variation and the area of the basins. Discrimination abilities of each nodal value affects on the correct association. In addition to theses sensitivity analyses results, we also noticed some characteristics of each GCM. For Korean water resources, monthly and small window setting analyses are recommended using GCMs.

  • NCTR(Non-Cooperative Target Recognition) and ATR(Automatic Target Recognition) are methodologies to identify military targets using radar, optical, and infrared images. Among them, a strategy to recognize ground targets using synthetic aperature radar(SAR) images is called SAR ATR. In general, SAR ATR consists of three sequential stages: detection, discrimination and classification. In this paper, a modification of the polar mapping classifier(PMC) to identify inverse SAR(ISAR) images has been made in order to apply it to SAR ATR. In addition, a preprocessing scheme can mitigate the effect from the clutter, and information on the shadow is employed to improve the classification accuracy.

  • In order to further improve the accuracy and time efficiency of behavior recognition in intelligent monitoring scenarios, a human behavior recognition algorithm based on YOLO combined with LSTM and CNN is proposed. Using the real-time nature of YOLO target detection, firstly, the specific behavior in the surveillance video is detected in real time, and the depth feature extraction is performed after obtaining the target size, location and other information; Then, remove noise data from irrelevant areas in the image; Finally, combined with LSTM modeling and processing time series, the final behavior discrimination is made for the behavior action sequence in the surveillance video. Experiments in the MSR and KTH datasets show that the average recognition rate of each behavior reaches 98.42% and 96.6%, and the average recognition speed reaches 210ms and 220ms. The method in this paper has a good effect on the intelligence behavior recognition.

  • In this paper, we present a new HPEJTC system which is capable of real-time multi-target recognition and tracking with better discrimination by extracting the phase signal of reference function from the JTPS of the conventional optical JTC retaining the amplitude signal of the input function. In order to test the correlation discrimination performance of the HPEJTC system, some experiments are carried out on the scenarios susceptible to the false alarms and missing in which many similar targets are periodically loacted. And, the proposed HPEJTC is analyzed to be the real function version of the POF and finally the possibility of the real-time implementation of the POF is suggested, because it can be implemented by using spatial light modulator, CCD detector and some other optical components.

  • It is crucial to process not only social cognitive information but also various emotional information for appropriate social interaction in everyday life. The processing of emotions embedded in social stimuli is affected by various context and external factors and the features of their own. Emotion discrimination tasks using point-light biological motion were conducted in this study to understand the factors influencing emotion processing and their effects. A target biological motion with angry or happy emotion was presented in the first task in red, green, white, or yellow color. A white angry, happy, or neutral "cue" biological motion was displayed simultaneously. Participants judged the emotion of the target relative to the cue stimulus by comparing the target with the cue. The second task used only emotionally neutral stimuli to find effect by the color itself. The results indicated an association between the specific color of the target and emotion. Red facilitated processing anger, whereas green appeared to facilitate happy emotion. The discrimination accuracy was high when the emotions of the cue and the target were identical in general, but the combination of red color and anger yielded different results compared with the rest of the conditions. Some illusory emotional responses associated with the target colors were observed in the second task. We could observe the effects of external factors in this study, affecting the emotional processing using biological motion rather than conventional face stimuli. Possible follow-up studies and clinical research were discussed.

  • To develop the effective microbial screening method, pyrolysis mass spectrometry (PyMS) fingerprinting was evaluated as a tool that discriminate various yeast strains. The target yeast strains were isolated from industrial wastewater. Seventeen environmental isolated yeast strains were examined by pyrolysis mass spectrometry and sequencing analysis of the large subunit rRNA gene D1/D2 region. The PyMS results were compared with those of sequencing analysis. Taxonomic correlations were observed between the PyMS data and the sequencing results. It was concluded that PyMS provides a rapid, reliable and cost-reducing method for discrimination of the yeast strains.
