화자확인에서 화자내 변이, 잡음환경, 그리고 학습환경과 인식 환경의 불일치는 화자확인 시스템이 실용화될 수 없는 가장 큰 원인이다. 본 연구에서는, 실제 환경에 강인한 화자 확인 시스템의 구현에 초점을 맞추어 음성 전처리 과정인 잡음환경에 강인한 끝점추출 알고리즘, 잡음제거 및 마이크특성 보상기법, LPG(Linear Predictive Coefficient)켑스트럼 가중치에 의한 화자간 변별력 향상 기법을 제안한다. 실험 결과, LPC잔차신호(residue)를 이용한 끝점추출 알고리즘을 사용한 경우 약 17.65% 가량의 끝점 추출 에러율을 향상시켰으며, 제안한 잡음제거 및 마이크특성 보상기법을 사용한 경우 다른 마이크 환경에서 화자 오인식율이 약 36.93% 가량 개선되었다. 또한, 제안한 LPC켑스트럼 가중치에 의한 화자간 변별력 향상 기법은 평균 화자 오인식율을 약 6.515% 향상시켰다.

The determination of DNA hybridization reaction can apply the molecular biology research, clinic diagnostics, bioengineering, environment monitoring, food science and application area. So, the improvement of DNA hybridization detection method is very important for the determination of this hybridization reaction. Several molecular biological techniques require accurate predictions of matched versus mismatched hybridization thermodynamics, such as PCR, sequencing by hybridization, gene diagnostics and antisense oligonucleotide probes. In addition, recent developments of oligonucleotide chip arrays as means for biochemical assays and DNA sequencing requires accurate knowledge of hybridization thermodynamics and population ratios at matched and mismatched target sites. In this study, we report the characteristics of the probe and matched, mismatched target oligonucleotide hybridization reaction using thermodynamic method. Thermodynamic of 5 oligonucleotides with central and terminal mismatch sequences were obtained by measured UV-absorbance as a function of temperature. The data show that the nearest-neighbor base-pair model is adequate for predicting thermodynamics of oligonucleotides with average deviations for $\Delta$H$^{0}$ , $\Delta$S$^{0}$ , $\Delta$G$_{37}$ $^{0}$ and T$_{m}$, respectively.>$^{0}$ and T$_{m}$, respectively.

본 연구에서는 목자판과 수면이 포함되어 있는 시차를 가진 두 영상에 대해 직사각형 검사영역을 설정하고 그 상관계수를 분석하여 수면을 판단하는 새로운 수면인식 기법을 제안하였다. 상관계수의 수직적인 값들로부터 임계치, 첨두값, 기울기, 분산비 등 4가지 방법을 이용하여 수면의 위치를 판정하였다. 흔들림 등으로 인해 두 영상의 위치가 불일치하여 생기는 문제를 제거하기 위해 추가로 영상의 흔들림을 보정하는 알고리즘과 통계적 필터링 기법을 적용하였다. 저수시에 촬영한 28개 지점의 영상에 개발한 수면 인식 방법을 적용하였다. 이 방법으로 계산한 수면은 목측 수면과의 평균상대오차가 3.4~5.7 cm 정도로 나타났다. 수면의 요동이 있을 경우, 이 방법은 기존 방법을 보완하여 영상수위계의 수위 측정성능을 높이는데 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Timber inventory management includes to measure and update forest attributes, which is crucial information for private companies and public organizations in property assessment and environment monitoring. Field measurement would be accurate, but time-consuming and inefficient. For the reason, remote sensing technology has been an alternative to field measurement from an economic perspective. Among several sensors, LiDAR and Radar interferometry are known for their efficiency for forest monitoring because they are less influenced by weather and light conditions, and provide reasonably accurate vertical/horizontal measurement for a large area in a short period. For example, Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) and National Elevation Dataset (NED) in the U.S. can provide tree height information and DSM. On the other hand, LiDAR DSM (the first return) and DEM (the last return) can also present tree height estimation. With respect to project site of loblolly pine plantation in Louisiana in the U.S., the accuracy of SRTM C-Band approach estimating tree height was assessed by the LiDAR approaches. In addition, SRTM X-Band and NED were also compared with the results. Plantation year in inventory GIS, which is directly related to forest age, is high correlated with the difference between SRTM C-Band and NED. As a byproduct, several stands of age mismatch could be recognized using an outlier detection algorithm, and optical satellite image (ETM+) were used to verify the mismatch. The findings of this study were (1) the confirmation of usefulness of the SRTM DSM for forest monitoring and (2) Multi-sensors- Radar, LiDAR, ETM+, MODIS can be used for accuracy improvement of forest inventory GIS altogether.

적응빔형성 기법은 부엽을 줄이고 약한 신호에 대한 탐지 성능을 향상시킨다. MVDR(Minimum Variance Distortionless Response)과 같은 일반적인 적응빔형성 기법은 설계한 가중벡터와 실제 입사신호의 조향벡터의 불일치에 대해 매우 민감하다. 또한 센서 수가 많은 어레이를 이용하여 광대역 적응빔형성을 할 경우 공분산행렬을 산출하기 위해 긴 관측시간과 많은 연산량이 요구된다. 본 논문은 센서 수가 많은 수동 선배열 소나의 광대역 적응빔형성 성능향상 및 안정성을 위해 WBRCB(Wideband Robust Capon Beamforming)를 적용하였다. 불일치 요소에 강인한 WBRCB 구현을 위해 다양한 불일치 요소를 반영하여 최적의 불일치 파라미터를 도출하였다. 도출된 파라미터를 반영한 WBRCB 기법을 시뮬레이션 및 실험데이터에 적용하여 수동 선배열 소나의 광대역 적응빔형성 성능 향상을 검증하였다.

Germline mutations in cancer causing genes result in high risk of developing cancer throughout life. These cancer predisposition syndromes (CPS) are especially prevalent in childhood brain tumors and impact both the patient's and other family members' survival. Knowledge of specific CPS may alter the management of the cancer, offer novel targeted therapies which may improve survival for these patients, and enables early detection of other malignancies. This review focuses on the role of CPS in pediatric high grade gliomas (PHGG), the deadliest group of childhood brain tumors. Genetic aspects and clinical features are depicted, allowing clinicians to identify and diagnose these syndromes. Challenges in the management of PHGG in the context of each CPS and the promise of innovative options of treatment and surveillance guidelines are discussed with the hope of improving outcome for individuals with these devastating syndromes.

The role of 3' exonuclease excision in DNA polymerization was evaluated for primer extension using inert allele specific primers with exonuclease-digestible ddNMP at their 3' termini. Efficient primer extension was observed in amplicons where the inert allele specific primers and their corresponding templates were mismatched. However, no primer-extended products were yielded by matched amplicons with inert primers. As a control, polymerase without proofreading activity failed to yield primer extended products from inert primers regardless of whether the primers and templates were matched or mismatched. These data indicated that activation was undertaken for the inert allele specific primers through mismatch proofreading. Complementary to our previously developed SNP-operated on/off switch, in which DNA polymerization only occurs in matched amplicon, this new mutation detection assay mediated by $exo^+$ DNA polymerases has immediate applications in SNP analysis independently or in combination of the two assays.

In this paper, we present a rotating auto-zeroing offset cancellation technique, which can improve the performance of touch screen sensing circuits. Our target touch screen detection method employs multiple continuous sine waves to achieve a high speed for large touch screens. While conventional auto-zeroing schemes cannot handle such continuous signals properly, the proposed scheme does not suffer from switching noise and provides effective offset cancellation for continuous signals. Experimental results show that the proposed technique improves the signal-to-noise ratio by 14 dB compared to a conventional offset cancellation scheme. For the realistic simulation results, we used Cadence SPECTRE with an accurate TSP model and noise source. We also applied an asymmetric device size (10% MOS size mismatch) to the OP Amp design in order to measure the effectiveness of offset cancellation. We implemented the proposed circuit as part of a touch screen controller system-on-chip by using a Magnachip/SK Hynix 0.18-µm complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process.

One fo the major problems in speech recognition is the mismatch between training and testing environments. Recently, SNR normalization technique, which normalizes the dynamic range of frequency channels in mel-scaled filterbank, was proposed[1]. While it showed improved robustness against additive noise, it requires a reliable speech detection mechanism and several adaptation parameters to be optimized. In this paper, we propose a modified SNR normalization technique. In this technique, we take simply the maximum of filterbank output and predetermined masking constant for each frequency band. According to the speaker-independent isolated word recognition in car noise environments, proposed modification yields better recognition performance that the original SNR normalization method, with rather reduced complexity.

이 논문에서는 시간을 따라 바뀌는 비동기 채널에서 안테나 배열을 쓸 때 유사 최대우도 검파기를 생각했다. 제안한 유사 최대우도 검파기는 먼저 빔을 만든 뒤 상관을 없앤다. 채널 매개변수를 추정하도록 역 여파 신호의 상관행렬 고유분해를 바탕으로 한 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리듬이 나쁜 전파환경에서도 적은 손실 안에서 채널벡터를 잘 추정하는 것을 모의실험으로 보였다.
