Through the use of energy ratio of special bandwidths of basic vowels, recognition of Korean basic spoken digit is performed in logical combination with a zero-crossing rate and an energy parameter. In the experiments for recognition of the digits, the speech signal of spoken digits is filtered by a lowpass filter of which the cutoff frequency is 10KHz, and then sampled at 20KHz of sampling rate, In the speech signal processing, we used four FIR digital filters, and the order of filter lengths is 61, 120, 25, 25respectively. The filters are designed by using Remetz exchange algorithm.[13],[14] As a result, the recognition rate of 92% for the three speakers is obstained.

We propose a new learning method of recurrent neural networks as an effort to solve local minima problem. In this method the network with fixed connection weights is run for a given period time under given time-variant external inputs and initial conditions. The weights are changed in the direction that the total error is maximally decreased by using the steepest gradient method. If the obtained error is not sufficiently small even after iterating this procedure, additional feedback connections are introduced. Then, the external input signal is redefined. And we execute experiments on the recognition of Korean spoken digits as an application of the proposed network.

In this paper, the recognition rate of isolated digits has been improved using the multiple neural networks combined with chaotic recurrent neural networks and MLP. Generally, the recognition rate has been increased from 1.2% to 2.5%. The experiments tell that the recognition rate is increased because MLP and CRNN(chaotic recurrent neural network) compensate for each other. Besides this, the chaotic dynamic properties have helped more in speech recognition. The best recognition rate is when the algorithm combined with MLP and chaotic multiple recurrent neural network has been used. However, in the respect of simple algorithm and reliability, the multiple neural networks combined with MLP and chaotic single recurrent neural networks have better properties. Largely, MLP has very good recognition rate in korean digits "il", "oh", while the chaotic recurrent neural network has best recognition in "young", "sam", "chil".

In this thesis, experiment have performed with the speaker recognition using multilayer feedforward neural network(MFNN) model using Korean and Japanese digits . The 5 adult males and 5 adult females pronounciate form 0 to 9 digits of Korean, Japanese 7 times. And then, they are extracted characteristics coefficient through Pitch deletion algorithm, LPC analysis, and LPC Cepstral analysis to generate input pattern of MFNN. 5 times among them are used to train a neural network, and 2 times is used to measure the performance of neural network. Both Korean and Japanese, Pitch coefficients is about 4%t more enhanced than LPC or LPC Cepstral coefficients.

Purpose: Soft tissue reconstruction is essential for recovery of finger function and aesthetics in any traumatic defect. The authors applied a reverse homodigital artery island flap for soft tissue defect on distal part of digits. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the procedure. Materials and Methods: Seven cases of soft tissue defects of finger tip were included in this study. There were six male and one female, mean age was 43 years and mean follow-up period was 38 months. The length of flaps ranged from 2.0 to 2.5 cm and width ranged from 1.0 to 2.0 cm. Flap survival, postoperative complications were evaluated. Results: All flaps survived without loss. Donor sites were repaired with primary closure in five cases and skin graft in two cases. None of the patients showed significant complications and their average finger motion was $255^{\circ}$ in total active motion at the last follow-up. Conclusion: The authors suggest that the reverse homodigital artery island flap could be a versatile treatment option for the soft tissue defect on distal part of digits.

Co-articulation is one of major factors that make connected word recognition difficult. This Study Considers the fact that the head Part Of the following word is changed by the Preceding word in a connection point, by applying the co-articulation model, and adj usting the following word .We choose a critical damping second order linear system for the co-articulation model, combining a one-stage DP matching recognition algorithm with this model, and Investigating the effects. The recognition experiment is carried out for 35 Korean 4 connected digits spoken by 5 male speakers, and recognition rate Is upgraded by 4.7 percent.

Objective : Radial nerve palsy is characterized by palsy or paralysis of extensors of the wrist and digits, as well as the forearm supinators. Very proximal lesions also may affect the triceps. Numbness occurs on the dorsoradial aspect of the hand and the dorsal aspect of the radial 3 and 1/2 digits. We observed 7 patients with radial nerve palsy, the results are as follows. Methods & Results : All patients were treated by the same method and treatment was performed by acupuncture and Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation. the electrode were placed unilaterally on the motor points of forearm. As the result, symptoms are improved remarkably. Conclusions : Patients were treated for 5.4 weeks, 14.7 times(average). The grade was that 6 cases were good and 1 case was excellent.

This paper proposes a N-APPEM(Nonlinear A Posteriori Probability Estimation Method) with a frame normalization method to conventional classification network to increase speech recognition ability. It also tests the recognition ability of the classification and prediction neural networks for the Korean isolated digits. From the experimental results, the prediction network with MLP(Multi-Layer Perceptron) achieves the highest recognition ability of 98.0%. The prediction requires very complicated networks increased linearly with the number of incoming speech categories. However, the classification network with the N-APPEM and the normalization improves the recognition ability up to 85.5% with a sin81e network, which is almost 12.0% improvement.

We present a robust off-line method recognizing handwritten digits by only using stroke direction codes as a feature of handwritten digits. This method makes general 8-direction codes for an input digit and then has the multi-layered neural networks learn them and recognize each digit. The 8-direction codes are made of the thinned results of each digit through SOG*(Improved Self-Organizing Graph). And the usage of these codes simplifies the complex steps processing at least two features of the existing methods. The experimental result shows that the recognition rates of this method are constantly better than 98.85% for any images in all digit databases.

In this paper, I propose an algorithm to generate an input digit image for a digit recognition system by detecting a digit string in an image and segmenting the digits constituting the digit string. The proposed algorithm detects blobbed digit string through blob detection, designates a digit string area and corrects digit string skew using the detected blob information. And the proposed algorithm corrects the digit skew and determines the boundary points for the digit segmentation in the corrected digit sequence using three CPgraphs newly defined in this paper. In digit segmentation experiments using the image group including digit strings printed with a range of the font sizes and the image group including handwritten digit strings, the proposed algorithm successfully segments 100% and 90% of the digits in each image group.
