초음파는 일반적으로 물질의 내부결함을 측정하거나 결정입경과 같은 물질의 특성을 측정하는데 사용된다. 현재 초음파를 검지하는 방법으로는 탐촉자를 물질에 접촉시켜서 초음파를 측정하는 접촉식 방법이 널리 사용되고 있다. 따라서, 이러한 접촉식 초음파 검출방법은 원격탐사를 하는데에 어려움이 있다. 이런 문제점을 보완하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 패브리-페로 간섭계(Fabry-Perot interferometer)를 이용하여 비접촉식으로 초음파를 검출하는 방법에 대하여 실험하였다. (중략)

연속음 인식과 음성 합성을 위해서는 정밀한 음성학적 모델과 연속 음성에 적용 가능한 언어 모델의 개발이 중요하다. 이를 위해서는 음성 데이터 베이스에 대한 인식 단위, 혹은 합성 단위의 분할이 필요한데, 수동음성 분할은 일관성의 유지가 어렵고 긴 시간이 소요되므로 최근에는 자동 분할 기술이 많이 연구되고 있다. 자동 음성 분할 기법으로는 시간 영역이나 주파수 영역특징 벡터의 천이를 분석하는 방법과 특징 벡터간의 상관도를 구하여 경계를 추출하는 방법이 있다. LPC smoothed log amplitude spectra는 음성의 주파수 영역의 특징을 잘 나타내며, 동일 음소 내의 상관도가 서로 다른 음소의 상관도보다 더 크고, 음소의 경계구간에서 급격한 상관도의 변화를 보인다. 이 특성을 이용하여 이웃 프레임에 대한 상관도의 방향성이 특정조건을 만족하는가를 검사하여 음소의 경계를 구하는 방법을 찾았다. 또한 LPC. 이득 인자만으로 묵음 구간을 검출하는 방법을 제시한다. 이렇게 하면 묵음 구간검출과 음소 경계 검출의 일관성을 향상시키고 수행 시간을 단축시킬 수 있다. 제안한 기법으로 허용 오차 20ms 이내에서 연속음성에 대한 음소 경계 검출 실험을 수행한 결과, 수작업으로 행한 경계 검출 지점의 약 88%를 정확히 검출하였다.

An edge includes information of objects such as magnitude, orientation, and location. Conventional edge detection methods to detect those edge are methods using Sobel, Prewitt, Roberts, Laplacian operator. Existing methods use fixed weighted mask to detect edges, and their edge detection characteristics are insufficient. Therefore, to remedy weakness of conventional methods, in this paper, an edge detection algorithm using weight with standard deviation and thresholds is proposed.

In the modern society, image processing is utilized in various fields. Edge detection used for image processing as such is essential for most of the applications. Accordingly, there are studies conducted both in and out of Korea in order to detect edge. Representative edge detection methods include Sobel, Prewitt and Roberts. However, these methods are rather limited when it comes to the edge detection characteristics when used for the image with damaged AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise). Thus, this paper presented edge detection method utilizing local mask in order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing methods.

The photo-response characteristics of polysilicon based metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photodetector structure, depending on deuterium treatment method, was analyzed by means of the dark-current and the light-current measurements. Al/Ti bilayer was used as a Schottky metal. Our purpose is to incorporate the deuterium atoms into the absorption layer of undoped polysilicon, effectively, for the defect passivation. We have introduced two deuterium treatment methods, a furnace annealing and an ion implantation. In deuterium furnace annealing, deuterium bond was distributed around polysilicon surface where the light current flows. As for the ion implantation, even thought it was a convenient method to locate the deuterium inside the polysilicon film, it creates some damages around polysilicon surface. This deteriorated the photo-response in our photodetector structure.

Edge detection is one of the important technologies to simplify images in the text, lane and object recognition implementation process, and various studies are actively carried out at home and abroad. Existing edge detection methods include a method to detect edge by applying directional gradient masks in spatial space, and a mathematical morphology-based edge detection method. These existing detection methods show insufficient edge detection results in excessively dark or bright images. In this regard, to complement these drawbacks, we proposed an algorithm using the Sobel and histogram equalization among the existing methods.

In this paper, we propose a method for coding history detection of digital speech signal. In digital speech communication and storage, the signal is encoded to reduce the number of bits. Therefore, when a speech signal waveform is given, we need to detect its coding history so that we can determine whether the signal is an original or an coded one, and if coded, determine the number of times of coding. In this paper, we propose a coding history detection method for 12.2kbps AMR codec in terms of original, single coding, and double coding. The proposed method extracts a speech-specific feature vector from the given speech, and models the feature vector using a deep neural network. We confirm that the proposed feature vector provides better performance in coding history detection than the feature vector computed from the general spectrogram.

In this paper, we propose a novel method for eye detection using two texture filters considering textural and structural characteristics of eye regions. The human eyes have two characteristics: 1) the eyes are horizontally long and 2) the pupas are of circular shapes. By considering these two characteristics of human eyes, two texture filters are utilized for the eye detection. One is Gabor filter for detecting eye shapes in horizontal direction. The other is ART descriptor for detecting pupils of circular shape. In order to effectively detect eye regions, the proposed method consists of four steps. The first step is to extract facial regions using AdaBoost method. The second step is to normalize the illumination by considering local information. The third step is to estimate candidate regions for eyes, by merging the results from two texture filters. The final step is to locate exact eye regions by using geometric information of the face. As experimental results, the performance of the proposed method has been improved by 2.9~4.4%, compared to the existing methods.

They are well-known geometric properties of a circle that the perpendicular bisector of a chord passes through the center of a circle, and the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of any two chords is its center. This paper is related to a fast pupil detection method capable of detecting the center and the radius of a pupil using these geometric properties at high speed when detecting the pupil region for iris segmentation. The proposed method is characterized as rapidly detecting the center and the radius of the pupil, extracting the candidate points of the circle in human eye images using morphological operations, and finding two chords using four points on the circular edge, and taking the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of these two chords for its center. The proposed method can not only detect the center and the radius of a pupil rapidly but also find partially occluded pupils in human eye images.

Detection performance of fire detection in the outdoor depends on weather conditions, the shadow by the movement of the sun, or illumination changes. In this paper, a smoke detection in conjunction with a robust background estimate algorithm to environment change in the outdoor in daytime is proposed. Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) is applied as background estimation, and also, statistical characteristics of smoke is applied to detect the smoke for separated candidate region. Through the experiments with input videos obtained from a various weather conditions, the proposed algorithms were useful to detect smoke in the outdoor.
