In speech signal processing, it is very important to detect the pitch exactly in speech recognition, synthesis and analysis. If we exactly pitch detect in speech signal, in the analysis, we can use the pitch to obtain properly the vocal tract parameter. It can be used to easily change or to maintain the naturalness and intelligibility of quality in speech synthesis and to eliminate the personality for speaker-independence in speech recognition. In this paper, we proposed a new pitch detection algorithm. First, positive center clipping is process by using the incline of speech in order to emphasize pitch period with a glottal component of removed vocal tract characteristic in time domain. And rough formant envelope is computed through peak-fitting spectrum of original speech signal infrequence domain. Using the roughed formant envelope, obtain the smoothed formant envelope through calculate the linear interpolation. As well get the flattened harmonics waveform with the algebra difference between spectrum of original speech signal and smoothed formant envelope. Inverse fast fourier transform (IFFT) compute this flattened harmonics. After all, we obtain Residual signal which is removed vocal tract element. The performance was compared with LPC and Cepstrum, ACF. Owing to this algorithm, we have obtained the pitch information improved the accuracy of pitch detection and gross error rate is reduced in voice speech region and in transition region of changing the phoneme.

This paper proposes a new technique of optimal codebook design in multistage gain-shape vector quantization (MS-GS VQ) for wireless image communication. An original image is divided into a smany blocks as possible in order to get strong robustness to channel transmission errors: the original image is decomposed into a number of subband images, each of which contains a sperate spatial frequency information and is obtained by the biorthogonal wavlet transform; each subband is separated into several consecutive VQ stages, where each stage has a residual information of the previous stage; one vector in each stage is divided into two components-gain and shape. But, this decomposition genrates too many blocks and it thus makes the determination of optimal codebooks difficult. We overcome this difficulty by evolving each block's codebook independently with different genetic algorithm that uses each stage's individual training vectors. Th eimpact of th eproposed VQ technique on the channel transmission errors is compared with that of other VQ techniques. Simulation results show that the proposed VQ technique (MS-GS VQ) with the optimal codebook designe dy genetic algorithms is very robust to channel transmission errors even under the bursty and high BER conditions.

In this paper, we propose a method of applying a lifting-based wavelet domain e-median filter (LBWDEMF) for image restoration. LBWDEMF helps in reducing the number of computations. An e-median filter is a type of modified median filter that processes each pixel of the output of a standard median filter in a binary manner, keeping the output of the median filter unchanged or replacing it with the original pixel value. Binary decision-making is controlled by comparing the absolute difference of the median filter output and the original image to a preset threshold. In addition, the advantage of LBWDEMF is that probabilities of encountering root images are spread over sub-band images, and therefore the e-median filter is unlikely to encounter root images at an early stage of iterations and generates a better result as iteration increases. The proposed method transforms an image into the wavelet domain using lifting-based wavelet filters, then applies an e-median filter in the wavelet domain, transforms the result into the spatial domain, and finally goes through one spatial domain e-median filter to produce the final restored image. Moreover, in order to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method we compare the result obtained using the proposed method to those using a spatial domain median filter (SDMF), spatial domain e-median filter (SDEMF), and wavelet thresholding method. Experimental results show that the proposed method is superior to SDMF, SDEMF, and wavelet thresholding in terms of image restoration.

In our country, in order to cure diseases, a large number of crude drug preparations has been available. Nevertheless, the development of crude drug preparations have been inhibited, because the quality control is not completed so far. Therefore, we have eontinued on studing the quality control method by Zig-zag TLC. profile analysis. The water extract of 'Samyo-Tang' and componental crude drug (Glycyrrhizae Radix, Ephedrae Herba, Armenicae Semen) were developed on Silica gel $60F_{254}\;plate\;(E.\;Merck)$ useing elution solvent. The developed plate were examined useing Dual Wavelength Zig-zag Scanner (Shimadzu). According to the results of the experiment, it could be summarized as follow: 1) Original patterns of TLC profiles of 'Samyo-Tang' componental crude drug and mixing two crude drugs of 'Samyo-Tang' were observed. 2) Original patterns TLC profile of each extract after spraying with 2% ninhydrine were observed. 3) In the extract of addition and subtraction of Ephedrae Herba, peak area of Rf 0.48 and Rf 0.60 were varied quantitatively.

Implicit surfaces are geometric shapes which are defined by implicit functions and exist in three-dimensional space. Recently, implicit surfaces have received much attention in solid modeling applications because they are easy to represent the location of points and to use boolean operations. However, it is difficult to chart points on implicit surfaces for rendering. As efficient rendering method of implicit surfaces, the original Adaptively Sampled Distance Fields (ADFs) $method^{[1]}$ is to use sampled distance fields which subdivide the three dimensional space of implicit surfaces into many cells with high sampling rates in regions where the distance field contains fine detail and low sampling rates where the field varies smoothly. In this paper, in order to maintain the sharp features efficiently with small number of cells, an extended ADFs method is proposed, applying the Dual/Primal mesh optimization $method^{[2]}$ to the original ADFs method. The Dual/Primal mesh optimization method maintains sharp features, moving the vertices to tangent plane of implicit surfaces and reconstructing the vertices by applying a curvature-weighted factor. The proposed extended ADFs method is applied to several examples of implicit surfaces to evaluate the efficiency of the rendering performance.

Spar platforms have been installed as a competitive alternative offshore production structure for deepwater oil field. Since the first spar platform was constructed, its configuration has evolved to the so-called the truss spar and then the cell spar. This paper describes the dynamic analysis and fatigue life assessment of steel catenary riser (SCR) connected to cell spar platform. Two different cell spar platforms are considered herein; the original cell spar and the modified one. The original cell spar was modified by introducing an additional damping plate at its bottom in order to reduce wave-frequency motions. Firstly the wave-frequency motions of cell spar platforms are calculated based on the potential theory. Then, the dynamic responses of SCR induced by platform motions are computed. Finally the fatigue life of SCR is estimated by spectral method and the performance of two spar platforms are compared in terms of the fatigue life. Through the present study, it is found that the fatigue life of the modified cell spar increases only slightly.
