  • As the information society developed rapidly now, office software based on IoT has released along with office appliances that we encountered in everyday life, providing more convenient services. Now a days, in addition to writing documents for recording, it has importance to create documents for effective document presentation and information transmission. In this paper, we have been presented and designed in 3D virtual space from 2D for effective information transmission in real time. The suggested program, which implements part of the design, enables the voice and visual information to be effectively communicated while conveniently exploring or showing documents in a virtual 3D space. It provides a method of automatically placing documents in 3D virtual space, designing virtual camera movements that effectively explore them, and suggesting how to connect voice information to each document in real time.

  • One of the most important means in modem NQ (Network Quotient) emphasized society is the communication skill. Therefore, it is mostly necessary to accurately express his or her own idea and maximize own communication competence. For this, efforts on improving pronunciation accuracy, such as pronunciation stretching practice and vocal cords reflex point acupressure therapy, have been devoted for communication competence in daily life. However, objective and positive method to substantiate such efforts has not yet been studied to find if the methods can improve pronunciation accuracy in effect. We, therefore, propose an IT based method of substantiation and quantization for such pronunciation accuracy improvement methods. Voice analysis on voice data sample of 30 males in 20s, before and after pronunciation stretching practice and vocal cords reflex point acupressure, has been performed in this paper.

  • In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for attenuating the background noises in acoustic signal. This algorithm improves the noise attenuation performance by using the FNN(: Full-connected Neural Network) deep learning algorithm instead of the existing adaptive filter after wavelet transform. After wavelet transforming the input signal for each short-time period, noise is removed from a single input audio signal containing noise by using a 1024-1024-512-neuron FNN deep learning model. This transforms the time-domain voice signal into the time-frequency domain so that the noise characteristics are well expressed, and effectively predicts voice in a noisy environment through supervised learning using the conversion parameter of the pure voice signal for the conversion parameter. In order to verify the performance of the noise reduction system proposed in this study, a simulation program using Tensorflow and Keras libraries was written and a simulation was performed. As a result of the experiment, the proposed deep learning algorithm improved Mean Square Error (MSE) by 30% compared to the case of using the existing adaptive filter and by 20% compared to the case of using the STFT(: Short-Time Fourier Transform) transform effect was obtained.

  • Spasmodic dysphonia is a chronic, focal, movement-induced, action-specific dystonia of the laryngeal musculature during speech. It can have a profound effect on quality of life, severely limiting people's communication, especially via telephone and in noisy backgrounds. Spasmodic dysphonia (SD) is usually of the adductor type characterized by glottic contractions causing tightness and voice breaks with forced-strangled voice, but it may also be abductor type or, much less commonly, mixed. Treatment options for adductor spasmodic dysphonia (ADSD) include voice therapy, surgical procedures, and botulinum toxin injections (Botox). The use of Botox injected into the laryngeal muscles remains the "gold standard" treatment for reducing the vocal symptoms of ADSD and Botox induces a temporary paresis of the laryngeal muscles and provides short-term relief of symptoms. Repeated injections of the laryngeal muscles, generally every 3-4 months, are required for continuous relief of symptoms. Improvement in vocal function has been reported after use of Botox injections, though a completely normal voice is rarely achieved. In this hospital, 1,030 patients have been enrolled for Botox injection therapy so far (May, 2012). In this review article, I'd like to present my personal experience of management of spasmodic dysphonia mainly by Botox injection.

  • Even though Waterpower Generation as pollution-free has its own merit of contribution by supply of good quality electricity, due to the noise made at the time of its operation, a normal mutual communication among the workers and technicians engaging at the hydraulic turbine dynamo room is almost impossible, and since those finishing materials had been used mainly by reflection material, it is actual situation that when working for maintenance in the hydraulic turbine dynamo room, as counterpart's voice vibrates, its working efficiency is difficult to ensure. On such view point, this Research has conducted Psycho-acoustics Experiment about voice Definition using Auralizational Technique, on the object for the hydraulic turbine dynamo room that improved its acoustic performance by computer simulation. As the result of Study, it was known that the clearness of sound with regard to voice information transmission was apparently improved in all items than before improvement. Therefore, it is considering that these results would be utilized usefully when renovation on the hydraulic turbine dynamo room in the future.

  • There is body type that physique classified by apparent characteristics as shape of human body. Chest girth circumference and body type statistically has been look into correlative disposition, character etc. In this paper, we carried out study about prediction of chest girth as voice that interrelationship drew to analyze voice of disposition, character etc. in personal character. With this in mind, we measured intensity, spectrum about laughter by chest girth to classify composition group of subjects and then we would like to extract experiment result to predict chest girth by reciprocal comparison.

  • Substantial confusion exists regarding the nomenclature of benign vocal fold lesions (BVFL), because there were no pathologically diagnostic findings and deep understanding of pathogenesis in the past. There is no consensus on specific labels for BVFL, nor are the most commonly used terms defined. There is a need for a defined nomenclature for the purpose of improving communication among clinicians and with patients. Furthermore, precise definitions of BVFL will facilitate clinical research of voice disorders and may lead to a better understanding of outcomes for BVFL treatment. Laryngoscope, stroboscope, voice evaluation are used to diagnose BVFL. The objective of this review article was to develop a new paradigm of BVFL nomenclature using patient's history, stroboscope, voice therapy results, and operative findings. Furthermore, precise definitions of BVFL will facilitate clinical research of voice disorders and may lead to a better understanding of outcomes for BVFL treatment.

  • Voice dialing system can recognize the speaker's command and dial the destinate phone number automatically. Such a system is useful for wireless handsets and portable communication devices. As a personal voice dialing system, all the commands are used to train the HMM for speech recognition based on owner-selected phrases. Its implementation requires much less memory space and computation resource compared to a speaker-independent system. Since only two or three training utterances per command are used in this system, it is difficult to estimate exact state duration distribution to improve the recognition performance. Therefore a post-processor is presented to improve the performance. Experiments which use the database collected through the telephone line showed that the proposed post-processor improves the recognition system performance.
