Voice activity detectors (VADs) are important in wireless communication and speech signal processing. In the conventional VAD methods. an expression for the likelihood ratio test (LRT) based on statistical models is derived. Then, speech or noise is decided by comparing the value of the expression with a threshold. We propose a new method with the modified decision rule based on the Gaussian distribution and the uniformly most power (UMP) test. This method requires the distribution of the absolute value of the incoming speech signal. Then we can obtain the final decision through the relation between the Rayleigh distributions. This VAD method can detect speech without a priori signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) which is required in the conventional VAD algorithms. Additionally, in the various VAD performance tests, the proposed VAD method is shown to be more effective than the traditional scheme.

In this paper, an effective method has been proposed for selection of white Gaussian noise(WGN) band for radio background noise measurement system under broad band noise environment. MMN which comes from industrial devices and equipment mostly happens in the shape of broad band noise mostly like impulsive noise and this is the main reason for increasing level in the present radio noise measurements. The existing method based on singular value decomposition has weak point that it cannot give good performance for the broad band signal because it uses signal's white property. The proposed method overcomes such a weakness of singular value decomposition based method by using signal's Gaussian property based method in parallel. Moreover, this proposed method hires a modelling based method which uses parameter estimation algorithm like maximum likelihood estimation(MLE) and gives more accurate result than the method using amplitude probability distribution(APD) graph. Experiment results under the natural environment has done to verify feasibility of the proposed method.

Background subtraction is mainly used for the real-time extraction and tracking of moving objects from image sequences. In the outdoor environment, there are many changeable factor such as gradually changing illumination, swaying trees and suddenly moving objects, which are to be considered for the adaptive processing. Normally, GMM(Gaussian Mixture Model) is used to subtract the background adaptively considering the various changes in the scenes, and the adaptive GMMs improving the real-time performance were worked. This paper, for on-line background subtraction, applied the improved adaptive GMM, which uses the small constant for learning rate ${\alpha}$ and is not able to speedily adapt the suddenly movement of objects, So, this paper proposed and evaluated the dynamic control method of ${\alpha}$ using the adaptive selection of the number of component distributions and the global variances of pixel values.

In this paper, we present background modeling method based on Gaussian mixture model to subtract background for night-time video surveillance. In night-time video, it is hard work to distinguish the object from the background because a background pixel is similar to a object pixel. To solve this problem, we change the pixel of input frame to more advantageous value to make the Gaussian mixture model using scaled histogram stretching in preprocessing step. Using scaled pixel value of input frame, we then exploit GMM to find the ideal background pixelwisely. In case that the pixel of next frame is not included in any Gaussian, the matching test in old GMM method ignores the information of stored background by eliminating the Gaussian distribution with low weight. Therefore we consider the stacked data by applying the difference between the old mean and new pixel intensity to new mean instead of removing the Gaussian with low weight. Some experiments demonstrate that the proposed background modeling method shows the superiority of our algorithm effectively.

This paper has analyzed the change of forward and backward current for channel doping concentration to analyze off-current of double gate(DG) MOSFET. The Gaussian function as channel doping distribution has been used to compare with experimental ones, and the two dimensional analytical potential distribution model derived from Poisson's equation has been used to analyze the off-current. The off-current has been analyzed for the change of projected range and standard projected range of Gaussian function with device parameters such as channel length, channel thickness, gate oxide thickness and channel doping concentration. As a result, this research shows the off-current has greatly influenced on forward and backward current for device parameters, especially for the shape of Gaussian function for channel doping concentration.

클러스터링에 있어서 K-means와 FCM(Fuzzy C-means)와 같은 기존의 알고리즘들은 지역적 최소 해에 수렴될 문제와 사전에 클러스터 개수를 결정해야 하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 병렬 탐색을 통해 최적 해를 찾는 진화 알고리즘을 사용하여 지역적 최소 해에 수렴되는 문제점을 개선하였으며, 클러스터의 특성을 표준편차 벡터를 계산하여 중심으로부터 포함된 데이터가 얼마나 분포되어 있는지 알 수 있는 분산도와 임의의 데이터와 모든 중심들간의 거리의 비율로서 얻어지는 소속정도를 고려하여 클러스터간의 간격을 알 수 있는 분리도를 정의함으로써 자동으로 클러스터 개수를 결정할 수 있게 하였다. 실험데이터와 가우시안 분포에 의해 생성된 다차원 실험데이터를 사용하여 제안한 알고리즘이 이러한 문제점들을 해결하고 있음을 보인다.

To investigate the image-forming property of optical system having Gaussian amplitude for polychromatic source, we calculated the chromaticity variation and the illuminance distribution. Considered polychromatic sources in this paper are A light which is on incandescent-tungsten lamp, C light which is a daylight, and $D_{65}$ light which is a extend daylight to the near ultraviolet. The polychromatic sources represent the different chromaticity values at a geometrical image point. The chromaticity variation of optical system having a Gaussian amplitude is smaller than that having an uniform amplitude. The illuminance distributions for polychromatic sources present nearly the same values, and the depth of focus for optical system having a Gaussian amplitude is wider than that having an uniform amplitude. From these results, we know that the depth of focus increases and the chromaticity variation decreases, when the incident light amplitude is modulated from an uniform amplitude to a Gaussian amplitude.

Airbone laser altimeters have been utilized for 3D topographic mapping of the earth, moon, and planets with high resolution and accuracy, which is a rapidly growing remote sensing technique that measures the round-trip time emitted laser pulse to determine the topography. The traveling time from the laser scanner to the Earth's surface and back is directly related to the distance of the sensor to the ground. When there are several objects within the travel path of the laser pulse, the reflected laser pluses are distorted by surface variation within the footprint, generating multiple echoes because each target transforms the emitted pulse. The shapes of the received waveforms also contain important information about surface roughness, slope and reflectivity. Waveform processing algorithms parameterize and model the return signal resulting from the interaction of the transmitted laser pulse with the surface. Each of the multiple targets within the footprint can be identified. Assuming each response is gaussian, returns are modeled as a mixture gaussian distribution. Then, the parameters of the model are estimated by LMS Method or EM algorithm However, each response actually shows the skewness in the right side with the slowly decaying tail. For the application to require more accurate analysis, the tail information is to be quantified by an approach to decompose the tail. One method to handle with this problem is proposed in this study.

We propose effective motion and observation models for the position of a WiFi-equipped smartphone user in large indoor environments. Three component motion models provide better proposal distribution of the pedestrian's motion. Our Gaussian interpolation-based observation model can generate likelihoods at locations for which no calibration data is available. These models being incorporated into the particle filter framework, our WiFi fingerprint-based localization algorithm can track the position of a smartphone user accurately in large indoor environments. Experiments carried with an Android smartphone in a multi-story building illustrate the performance of our WiFi localization algorithm.

In this paper, blind equalization technique using Gaussian two-cluster model is proposed. The proposed approach, by modeling the received M-QAM signals as Gaussian distributed two-cluster, minimizes the computational complexity and enhances the reliability of the signal estimates. In addition, by using a nonlinear estimator with variable parameters to estimate the transmitted signal, and by selectively applying the reduced constellation and the original constellation when estimating the signals, the reliability of the signal estimation was further improved. As a result, the proposed approach has improved the performance while reducing the complexity of the equalizer. Through computer simulations for blind equalization of higher-order signals of 64-QAM, it was confirmed that the proposed method showed better performance than traditional approaches.
