  • Machine vision is a technology that helps the computer as if a person recognizes and determines things. In recent years, as advanced technologies such as optical systems, artificial intelligence and big data advanced in conventional machine vision system became more accurate quality inspection and it increases the manufacturing efficiency. In machine vision systems using deep learning, the image quality of the input image is very important. However, most images obtained in the industrial field for quality inspection typically contain noise. This noise is a major factor in the performance of the machine vision system. Therefore, in order to improve the performance of the machine vision system, it is necessary to eliminate the noise of the image. There are lots of research being done to remove noise from the image. In this paper, we propose an autoencoder based machine vision system to eliminate noise in the image. Through experiment proposed model showed better performance compared to the basic autoencoder model in denoising and image reconstruction capability for MNIST and fashion MNIST data sets.

  • In order to prepare the fundamental data for the improvement of noisy working environments and the effective hearing conservation program on workers exposed to industrial noise, the authors surveyed the working processes and evaluated the noise levels on 56 manufacturing industries in Pusan area from April to July in 1985. The results were summarized as follows : 1. The noise level was the highest in shipbuilding and repairing(95.6 dBA), and followed by steel rolling(94.0 dBA), manufacture of motor vehicles(93.1 dBA), manufacture of fishing nets(92.9 dBA), manufacture of testiles(92.5 dBA), iron and steel foundries(89.3 dBA), manufacture of metal products(89.1 dBA), preserving and processing of marine foods(87.0 dBA), manufacture of rubber products(85.3 dBA), manufacture of plywood(84.9 dBA) and manufacture of paints(84.5 dBA). 2. Among fifty surveyed working processes, the noise level of twenty-one processes (42%) exceeded the threshold limit value for 8 hours per day. 3. As the allowable exposure times by governmental threshold limit values to industrial noise level(dBA), cocking of shipbuilding and repairing and plating(CGL) of steel rolling were the shortest(30 minutes), and followed by assembling(rivet) of manufacture of motor vehicles(1 hour) weaving of manufacture of textiles and shot, machine, pipe laying of shipbuilding and repairing(2 hours). 4. By the result of octave band analysis on noisy working processes in excess of 90 dBA, the sound level was the highest at 2,000 Hz or 4,000 Hz. 5. It was recognized that the measurement of overall sound pressure level was also effective as octave band analysis in evaluating the industrial noise.

  • With the rapid industrial development, railways have become a main traffic means of transportation. However, rail traffic noise and vibration have become a major problem in urban areas which is a very serious issue for the living environment. Especially, railway noise induced by rail operations has influenced on the residents living near railway tracks. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the Raynoise modeling in railway applications. Generally, my acoustics have been used to investigate the effectiveness of noise barriers in railway applications and barriers are modeled using the commercial software Raynoise. A-weighted sound pressure level have been measured at six locations, 4m from the track and are compared with experimental values. Based on the analysis of the results, Comparison between numerical and experimental values are within 1dB (A). Also, when a train is m through the Raynoise modeling, the general influential sphere of railway noise can be determined. Therefore, this study will be using basic data in establishing effective railway noise prevention plans far the future. Also, we could know that is applicable of Raynoise modeling at railway noise.

  • After the Industrialization of 1960s, while it has greatly contributed to the industrial development owing to acceleration of mechanization, but it is real situation that the countermeasure to noise damage generating at the loud noise workshop is scarcely made. Especially, the machine noise made at factory and workplace is so shocking and repeatedly reiterating terrible noise that most of the spot workers are forcedly imposing such dangers as the severe unpleasant feeling and hearing impairments. On such point of view, this research has attempted to extract the proper rating vocabulary in order for evaluation on machine noise made at the high noisy workshop, therefore it is considering that those extracted vocabularies could be utilized as the useful psycho-acoustic experiment for evaluation on machine noise, also for establishment of regulation standard in domestic high noisy workshop.

  • Noise and vibration triggered by pile driving in a construction site not only give hard time to the surrounding areas but could also cause residents nearby to file civil complaints to the extent of bringing construction to a halt. To deal with this issue, construction engineers have worked strenuously to develop low noise & low vibration pile methods. A noise & vibration-free screw concrete pile method proposed in this study is one of the successful outputs. It penetrates pile underground by rotating and pressing in body of the pile to avert noise and vibration while maximizing bearing capacity. A prototype of noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method was manufactured, which is not seen anywhere in Korea and elsewhere, and have undergone pilot tests twice to determine construction method.

  • Objectives: Purpose of this study was to evaluate the noise level exposures at the different cannonball type and locations in the tank gun drill ranges. Methods: We visited the tank gun drill ranges and measured with a sound level meter(3M Quest SoundPro$^{TM}$) with the value of Peak(dB(A)). Results: The highest peak value of impulse noise level averaged 166.3 dB(A) at the site of loading solider. The highest peak value of impulse noise level by size of cannonball averaged 165.9 dB(A) at the 120 mm size cannonball of the tank. This result was significantly different from the other size of cannonballs such as 7.62 mm, 90 mm, and 105 mm(p < 0.001). Among the four types of soldier site on the tank, average noise levels of loading soldier, 156.6 dB(A), were higher than the other three types of soldier site (p > 0.05). Conclusions: This study confirmed that there were needed for a proper control to reduce the amount of impulse noise exposure at the tank gun drill ranges.

  • In modern society, artificial intelligence and automation are being applied in various fields due to the development of the 4th industrial revolution and IoT technology. In particular, systems with a high proportion of image processing, such as automated processes, intelligent CCTV, medical industry, robots, and drones, are susceptible to external factors noise. In this paper, we propose a digital filter based on noise estimation and weights to reconstruct an image in a complex noise environment. The proposed algorithm classifies the types of noise using noise judgment, and determines the noise level of the filtering mask to switch the filtering process to obtain the final output. In order to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, simulation was conducted, compared with the existing filter algorithm, and the results were analyzed.

  • Passive noise reduction is a classical approach to attenuate industrial noise, and an active noise cancellation has several advantages over the passive noise cancellation. The active noise reduction system offers a better low frequency performance with a smaller and lighter system. This paper presents a simple active closed loop control system which consists of an controller for inverting and compensating the phase delay, a microphone for picking up the external noise, and a loudspeaker for radiating the acoustic out of phase signal to reduce the external noise, and external noise can be reduced after compensating the phase difference to be $180^{\circ}$ in the frequency of maximum value in the amplitude response. The noise of the phase delay covered from $50^{\circ}\;to\;310^{\circ}$ tends to be reduced in the active noise control system and it is possible to obtain a noise cancelling of up to approximately 20[dB] at the ears in the enclosurer.

  • Hanseo University's Tae-an Airfield was opened in July, 2005 for aeronautical education such as aircraft flight, air traffic control, avionics, etc., and will play an important part as a base for local economic and industrial developments. On the contrary, the aircraft noise from the airfield will give an impact against the vicinity of the airfield and become a big issue which the airfield authority has to solve. The aim of this study is to analyse the aircraft noise contour in vicinity of the airfield and to make understand the people around the airfield how much the aircraft noise will have an effect on. For the prediction of the aircraft noise in the local area, this study showed the method to assess the aircraft noise in the developed countries for aviation, and the result to compute WECPNL by INM 6.1 after encoding the various data including environmental input data, tract, and profile. The major results of the study can be summarized as follows ; While the area with influence contour of noise from 75 to 80 WECPNL is 0.555$km^2$, the area from 80 to 85 is 0.343$km^2$, and the area with influence contour of noise over 85 WECPNL is 0.163$km^2$. In addition, there are 4 houses in the contour over 85 WECPNL and the inhabitants(10 people) in this area will have effect from the noise. Therefore Tae-an airfeild authority is preparing the noise-prevention method or noise abatement program. Finally, according to the noise contour, it is one of the best way of decreasing the effect of aircraft noise that 33 runway is assigned as calm-wind runway because there is no resident in the area around 15 threshold.
