Snoring is a typical symptom of sleep disorder and it is important to identify the occurrence of snoring because it causes sleep apnea. In this paper, we proposes a residual convolutional neural network as an efficient snoring identification algorithm. Residual convolutional neural network, which is a structure combining residual learning and convolutional neural network, effectively extracts features existing in data more than conventional neural network and improves the accuracy of snoring identification. Experimental results show that the performance of the proposed snoring algorithm is superior to that of the conventional methods.

Malaria is a disease caused by a parasite and it is prevalent in all over the world. The usual method used to recognize malaria cells is a thick and thin blood smears examination methods, but this method requires a lot of manual calculation, so the efficiency and accuracy are very low as well as the lack of pathologists in impoverished country has led to high malaria mortality rates. In this paper, a malaria cell image recognition model using transfer learning is proposed, which consists in the feature extractor, the residual structure and the fully connected layers. When the pre-training parameters of the VGG-19 model are imported to the proposed model, the parameters of some convolutional layers model are frozen and the fine-tuning method is used to fit the data for the model. Also we implement another malaria cell recognition model without residual structure to compare with the proposed model. The simulation results shows that the model using the residual structure gets better performance than the other model without residual structure and the proposed model has the best accuracy of 97.33% compared to other recent papers.

This paper proposes a learning input shaper with nonlinear actuator dynamics to reduce the residual vibration of flexible systems. The controller is composed of an estimator of the time constant of the nonlinear actuator dynamics, a recursive least squares method, and an iterative updating algorithm. The updating mechanism is modified by introducing a vibration measurement function to cope with the dynamics of nonlinear actuators. The controller is numerically evaluated with respect to parameter convergence and control performance by using a benchmark pendulum system. The feasibility and applicability of the controller are demonstrated by comparing its control performance to that of an existing controller algorithm.

상수관망 시스템(Water Distribution System, WDS)은 이용자에게 양질의 상수도를 공급하기 위해 구축된 사회기반시설물로써, 정수된 물이 사용처에 도달하기까지 송수과정에서 발생 가능한 수질저하를 고려해야 한다. 일반적으로 정수장에서 염소처리를 한 후, 도달시간을 고려한 시스템 내 잔류 염소농도를 유지함으로써 수질저하를 예방한다. 여기서 상수도 내 잔류 염소농도는 미생물 번식 및 관내 부식물 등 다양한 생물 화학적 오염을 효과적으로 예방하는 반면, 과다할 경우 이용자의 음용성을 저해할 수 있어 시스템 전반에 걸쳐 염소농도의 적절한 관리가 요구된다. 특히, 상수관망에서는 공급경로 및 공급량에 따라 각 수요처의 도달 염소농도가 다르게 분포할 수 있으므로, 시설운영자는 균등하고 적절한 염소농도를 유지하기 위해 추가적인 염소 재투입시설을 설치하여 함께 관리하고 있다. 이 때, 염소투입 시설의 운영계획은 EPANET과 같은 상수관망 해석모형의 수질모의를 바탕으로 수립된다. 그러나 일반적으로 수질모의는 수리해석과는 달리 긴 시간이 소요되는 단점이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점을 개선하기 위해, 특정 네트워크의 수질모의 결과를 학습시킨 인공신경망(ANN) 모형을 구축하고 이를 이용하여 상수관망 수질모의 계산시간을 단축하고자 하였다. 여기서 ANN모형의 학습은 EPANET을 통해 미리 선정된 다양한 염소 투입지점의 염소 투입농도와 용수 공급량 자료, 그리고 주요 관측지점에서 측정된 염소농도자료를 이용하였다. 학습된 ANN모형을 EPANET 수질모의 결과와 비교 및 검증을 실시한 결과, 사전에 소요된 학습시간을 제외하면 수질모의 소요시간 측면에서 큰 개선효과를 보였으며, 대표지점에서의 수질모의 결과가 유사하였다. 추가적으로, 본 연구에서는 학습된 ANN모형과 최적화 알고리즘인 GA(Genitic Algorithm)를 연계하여 상수관망에서의 염소 재투입 스케줄링을 최적화하는 프로그램을 개발함으로써, 안전하고 경제적인 상수관망의 수질운영에 기여하고자 하였다.

Parkinson's disease, one of the three major diseases in old age, has more than 70 % of patients with speech disorders, and recently, diagnostic methods of Parkinson's disease through speech signals have been devised. In this paper, we propose a method of diagnosis of Parkinson's disease based on deep residual gated recurrent neural network using speech features. In the proposed method, the speech features for diagnosing Parkinson's disease are selected and applied to the deep residual gated recurrent neural network to classify Parkinson's disease patients. The proposed deep residual gated recurrent neural network, an algorithm combining residual learning with deep gated recurrent neural network, has a higher recognition rate than the traditional method in Parkinson's disease diagnosis.

In the diagnosis of pulmonary diseases, auscultation technique is simpler than the other methods, and lung sounds can be used for predicting the types of pulmonary diseases as well as identifying patients with pulmonary diseases. Therefore, in this paper, we identify patients with pulmonary diseases and classify lung sounds according to their sound characteristics using various convolutional neural networks, and compare the classification performance of each neural network method. First, lung sounds over affected areas of the chest with pulmonary diseases are collected by using a single-channel lung sound recording device, and spectral features are extracted from the collected sounds in time domain and applied to each neural network. As classification methods, we use general, parallel, and residual convolutional neural network, and compare lung sound classification performance of each neural network through experiments.

연구목적: 본 연구는 요양병원 등 재난취약시설에 재난이 발생할 경우 잔류한 요구조자를 정확하게 파악하여 소방 등 대응기관에 제공하는 APC(Auto People Counting)의 인식률 개선에 목적이 있다. 현재 재난 발생 시 건물 내 요구조자의 현황 파악을 위해 대응기관이 재난 현장에 도착하여 건물관계자에게 직접 물어보고 있다. 이는 요구조자에 대한 부정확한 정보일 가능성이 있어 대응기관의 업무범위가 확대되고 이로인해 구조자의 안전에도 위험이 될 수 있다. APC는 건물내 출입하는 인원을 자동으로 집계하여 실시간 잔류인원 정보를 제공함으로써 재난 시 요구조자 현황을 정확히 파악할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 APC가 보다 정확하게 출입 인원을 집계할 수 있도록 최적의 인공지능 알고리즘을 선정하는데 목적이 있다. 연구방법: 본 연구에서는 실제 재난취약시설에 설치되어 운영 중인 APC를 대상으로 카메라를 통해 출입 인원의 이미지를 인식하는 알고리즘을 개선하기 위해 CNN모델을 활용하여 베이스라인 모델링을 하였다. 다양한 알고리즘의 성능을 분석하여 상위 7개의 후보군을 선정하고 전이학습 모델을 활용하여 성능이 가장 우수한 최적의 알고리즘을 선정하는 방법으로 연구를 수행하였다. 연구결과: 실험결과 시간과 성능이 가장 좋은 Densenet201, Resnet152v2 모델의 정밀도와 재현율을 확인한 결과 모든 라벨에 대해서 정확도 100%를 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이 중 Densenet201 모델이 더 높은 성능을 보여주었다. 결론: 다양한 인공지능 알고리즘 중 APC에 적용할 수 있는 최적의 알고리즘을 선정하였고 이는 APC의 인식률을 개선하여 재난시 요구조자의 정보를 정확하게 파악하여 신속하고 안전한 구조작업이 가능할 것이다. 이는 요구조자의 안전한 구조뿐만 아니라 구조작업을 수행하는 구조자의 안전을 확보하는 데 기여할 것으로 기대된다. 향후 연무 등 다양한 재난상황에서 재난취약시설 내 출입인원을 정확하게 파악할 수 있도록 알고리즘 분석 및 학습에 대한 추가 연구가 요구된다.

This paper is concerned with the performance comparison of CR-CMA (Coordinate Reduction-CMA) and CM-CMA (Constellation Matching-Constant Modulus Algorithm) that is used for improving the convergence characteristic and residual intersymbol interference which are used as the performance index for an adaptive equalizer. The equalizer is used to reduce the distortion caused by the intersymbol interference on the wireless and the wired band-limited channel, and the blind method which does not need for extra bandwidth by the training sequence of digital code are researched. Recently, by using the merit of simple operation in the CMA, the performance improvement is obtained by the modifying the cost function of it. In this paper, the new algorithm, CR-CMA and CM-CMA, the performance analysis are performed and compared by computer simulation. The CR-CMA has a superior equalization characteristics in the recovered constellation, convergence speed and residual intersymbol interference than the CM-CMA by computer simulation.

This study inquired following research questions by a narrative research method : What was the job of an engineer in mechanical design field? How did he fulfill his job-related learning in his workplace? What were the context and the characteristic of the job-related learning in the workplace? And some implications of the job-related learning on engineering education were discussed. We identified that the research participant's career as a mechanical engineer has developed through three stages. At first, he engaged on conceptual design of a semi-conductor test machine through self-initiated learning from basic to whole system of the machine. At second stage, he leaded a design group for the concrete design of a ball type semi-conductor test machine. In this stage he learned the meaning of cooperation and cooperative learning. At third stage, he initiated to found an entrepreneur company that was specified to design a semi-conductor test machine. He became CEO of the company. He learned the R & D policy making through contacts with global company, visiting exhibition in abroad. Eventually his main task as a mechanical engineer was the problem solving in the process of machine design. He had experienced and learned through his works : project management, independent fulfilling of tasks, functional analysis and reverse engineering, conceptualizing and test, cohesive cooperation, dialogue and discussion, mediation of conflict, human relationship, leadership. The implication of the narrative analysis on engineering education is, proposed, to give the students more chances to experience and to learn such activities.
