One of the most popular approaches to parameter adaptation in hidden Markov model (HMM) based systems is the maximum likelihood linear regression (MLLR) technique. In our previous study, we proposed factored MLLR (FMLLR) where each MLLR parameter is defined as a function of a control vector. We presented a method to train the FMLLR parameters based on a general framework of the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm. Using the proposed algorithm, supplementary information which cannot be included in the models is effectively reflected in the adaptation process. In this paper, we apply the FMLLR algorithm to a pitch sequence as well as spectrum parameters. In a series of experiments on artificial generation of expressive speech, we evaluate the performance of the FMLLR technique and also compare with other approaches to parameter adaptation in HMM-based speech synthesis.

하천 형상은 자연적인 흐름과 인간의 활동에 의해 다양한 형태로 변화되며, 이러한 변화과정을 통해 안정된 형상을 갖추어간다. 이러한 변화는 흐름과 상호작용 과정을 통해 진전되며, 하천의 형태를 변화시키는 흐름 또한 저수로 형태 및 수량적인 변화 등에 의해 다양한 특성을 갖게 된다. 본 연구에서는 하천 내의 형태가 인간의 활동에 의해 인공적으로 변화되었을 경우 하천의 수리학적 특성에 미치는 영향을 3차원 수치해석 모형인 EFDC(Environmental fluid Dynamics Code, 미국 버지니아 해양연구소 개발) 모형을 이용하여 검토하였다. EFDC 모형은 크게 유동, 퇴적물 이송, 수질의 세 부분으로 구성되어 있으며, 유동 모델은 수온과 염분이 고려된 3차원 천수방정식을 기본으로 하고 있다. EFDC 모형의 적용을 위한 Case1은 일반적인 저수로 형태 갖는 하천이며, Case2에서는 하천 저수로 내 인공적으로 하중도가 설치되었을 경우에 대하여 수리학적 특성을 모의하였다. 수치모의 결과 다음과 같은 결과를 확인 할 수 있었다. 수위변화는 하중도 유무에 따라 상하류 부분에서 전혀 다른 결과를 나타냈다. 유속분포는 Case1에 비하여 Case2의 경우 하중도 설치에 의해 하천의 상류부에서는 흐름의 정체부분이 나타났으며, 하류부에서는 급확대에 의한 유속의 감소가 나타났다. 그리고 하중도에 의해 저수로가 분기됨에 따라 저수로의 급축소부가 발생되고, 이로 인해 유속이 급속히 증가되었다. 본 연구의 Case2와 같이 하천에 하중도를 설치할 경우 만곡부 외측 부분에서는 유속의 현저한 증가가 발생하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이와 같이 하중도의 설치 위치, 하중도의 규모 등에 따라 하중도 부분의 급격한 수위 및 유속 변화이 발생되는 것을 확인하였으며, 만곡부에 이와 같은 것을 설치할 경우 보다 정밀한 수리계산을 통해 안전성이 확보되는 하중도 설치가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Recently satellite SAR techniques have become essential observation tools for various ocean phenomena such as wind, wave, and current. The CMOD4 and CMOD-IFR2 models are used to calculate the magnitude of wind at SAR resolution with no directional information. Combination of the wave-SAR spectrum analysis and the inter-look cross-spectra techniques provides amplitude and direction of the ocean wave over a square-km sized imagette, The Doppler shift measurement of SAR image yields surface speed of the ocean current along the rador looking direction, again at imagette resolution. In this paper we report the development of a SAR Ocean processor (SOP) incorporating all of these techniques. We have applied the SOP to several RADARSAT-1 images of the coast of Korean peninsula and compared the results with oceanographic data, which showed reliability of spaceborne SAR-based oceanographic research.

Sea level rise and increase of the typhoon/hurricane intensity due to global warming have threaten coastal areas for residential and industrial and have been widely studied. In this study we showed our recent efforts on sea wind which is one of critical factors for safe maritime traffic and prediction for storm surges and waves. Currently, most of numerical weather models in korea do not have sufficient spatial and temporal resolutions, therefore we set up a find grid(about 9km) sea wind prediction system that predicts every 12 hours for three day using Weather Research and Forecasting(WRF). This system covers adjacent seas around korean peninsula Comparisons of two observed data, Ieodo Ocean Research station(IORS) and Yellow Sea Buoy(YSB), showed reasonable agreements and by data assimilation we will improve better accurate sea winds in near future.

Maritime traffic assessment is important to understand the characteristics of maritime traffic and to prevent maritime accidents. The maritime traffic assessment can be calculated from the ship trajectory data observed by using AIS(Automatic Identification System). This paper developes a maritime traffic assessment tool using ship's position and speed, course, time data from ships navigating waterways. The results are represented in terms of the number of traffic quantity and traffic distribution, speed distribution, geometric collision candidates. The developed tool will contributes to advance maritime traffic safety by VTS(Vessel Traffic Services).

The objective of the KA-32 Helicopter Training Simulator Development Program, executed by the Republic of Korea Government, is to acquire a helicopter simulator which meets level C requirements in accordance with the FAA AC 120-63. The Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) manages the development program and is supposed to develop and validate the flight dynamics model based on simulator design data and flight test data. The helicopter chosen for this project is the Kamov KA32T, operated by the Korean Forest Aviation Office. This paper presents the test program and information about the installation and execution of the flight tests. The program consist of tests for the simulator qualification, additional tests for model data and additional tests for model validation. The flight trials were performed from 30 July to 31 August at the Iksan airbase of the Forest Aviation Office (FAO).

In the present age, a vehicle works important part in our lives and economical domain that transport people, freights, and everything. And both of its number and value are increasing more and more. But user's convenience, control system could not be archived improvement than technological success. In this paper, we suggest some kinds of administrative agendas; simplifying executive processes, designing vehicle information system using by RFID which includes Ubiquitous skill and optical communication network. Especially, this paper suggests public vehicle control model which ran simplify every executive processes of vehicle's life in the newest method. There are many kinds of RFID applicative products about transportation. And a dual invest should be interrupted for economical purpose. So we also proposes some way for problems of these types.

최근 2014년 마른장마의 영향으로 중부 지방에 가뭄이 발생하였으며, 장마철 강수부족은 2015년까지 영향을 미친바 있다. 이로 인해 소양강 댐은 역대 최저수위를 기록하였으며, 일부 지역에서는 제한급수, 농업용수 부족 등의 피해가 발생하였다. 일반적으로 가뭄은 발생순서에 따라 기상학적, 농업적, 수문학적 가뭄 등으로 분류하고 있다 (Wilhite and Grantz, 1985). 기상학적 가뭄은 농업 및 수문학적 가뭄에 영향을 미치는 가뭄의 시작 단계를 의미하며, 가뭄을 판단하는데 있어 중요한 요소라 할 수 있다. 기상학적 가뭄을 정량적으로 판단하기 위해 SPI, PDSI, PN 등이 활용되고 있으며, 특히 강수량 기반의 SPI는 계산과정이 쉽고, 다양한 지속시간(3, 6, 9, 12개월 등)에 따라 가뭄을 객관적으로 판단할 수 있어 가장 활발하게 이용되고 있다(Mckee et al., 1993). 최근 기상청은 대기와 해양-해빙 모델을 접합한 GloSea5의 장기예보자료를 활용하여 월 내지 계절 가뭄전망을 위한 기상학적 가뭄지수를 현업에 활용하고 있다. 다만 국내에서는 주로 단기가뭄(1~3개월)이 빈번하게 발생함에 따라 짧은 예보선행시간을 갖는 가뭄전망에 대한 평가에 집중되어 왔다. 2014, 15년에는 이례적으로 2년 연속 가뭄이 지속된바 있으며, 장기가뭄(3개월 이상)에 대한 전망정보의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 장기예보자료 기반의 기상학적 가뭄전망정보를 산정하고, 2015년 가뭄을 대상으로 활용성을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 ASOS 59개 지점의 관측강수량, GloSea5의 미래예측(Foreacst) 및 과거재현(Hindcast) 자료를 활용하였으며, 다양한 지속시간(3, 6, 9, 12개월)에 대한 SPI를 산정하였다. 또한 예보선행시간(1~6개월)에 따른 SPI와 관측자료 기반의 SPI 간의 통계적 분석(상관계수, 평균제곱근오차)을 수행하여 전망정보의 정확도를 평가하였다.

The interest in evaluation of structural intensity arises for practical reasons, because net energy flow distribution offers information of energy transmission path, positions of sources, and sinks of vibration energy. In this paper, structural intensity analysis of local ship structures using finite element method(FEM) is carried out. The purpose of this analysis is to evaluate the relative accuracy according to mesh fineness. The structural intensity of unstiffened and stiffened plates varying their mesh fineness is analyzed and the results are compared with those obtained by the assumed mode method. As results, the proper mesh size in qualitative/quantitative structural intensity analysis of plate structures is proposed. In addition, the propagation phenomenon of vibration energy is investigated for the thickness-varying flat plate, L-type plate, and box-girder structures.
