Controlled traffic intersection is critical point in terms of transportation network performance, where the most of traffic congestion arises. One of the most important and favorable measure of effectiveness in the signal controlled intersection is approach delay. Although lots of efforts to develop traffic delay estimation models have been made throughout the years, most of them were focusing on homogeneous traffic flow. The purpose of this research is to develop a traffic delay estimation model for traffic flow mixed with bus based on the horizontal shockwave theory. Traffic simulation is performed to test the adaptation level of the model in generic environment. The result shows that the delay increases with increasing bus traffic. Overall model accuracy comparing simulation result is acceptable, that shows the error range around 10 percent.

This paper presents a fast fault simulation system for detecting stuck-at faults in mixed-level combinational logic circuits with gale level and switch -level primitives. For a practical fault simulator, the types are not restricted to static switch-level and/or gate-level circuits, but include dynamic switch-level circuits. To efficiently handle the multiple signal contention problems at wired logic elements, we propose a six-valued logic system and its logic calculus which are used together with signal strength information. As a basic algorithm for the fault simulation process, a well -known gate-level parallel pattern single fault propagation(PPSFP) technique is extended to switch-level circuits in order to handle pass-transistor circuits and precharged logic circuits as well as static CMOS circuits. Finally, we demonstrate the efficiency of our system through the experimental results for switch-level ISCAS85 benchmark combinational circuits and various industrial mixed-level circuits.

Bone marrow necrosis is a rare complication of a variety of diseases affecting the marrow. The cause and incidence are unknown, and reports of treatment response are rare. We describe a case of relapsed acute mixed type leukemia with bone marrow necrosis. The patient was a 10 year old female diagnosed with acute mixed type leukemia four years ago. She had been on second remission state for 1 year, presented with severe back pain, tenderness in lower extremities, low-grade fever and general weakness. Her level of serum lactic dehydrogenase on admission was increased. Bone marrow aspiration from both posterior iliac crest showed marrow necrosis. Subsequent examination showed the same feature. Hip MRI showed heterogenous low signal intensity in both iliac bone on T-1 weighted image and heterogenous high signal intensity on T-2 wieghted image. Remission induction therapy was started but she expired on 59th hospital day due to the complication of sepsis.

Quality control QC for spot-uniformity is a critical point in fabricating an oligonucleotide array, and quantification of targets is very important in array analysis. We developed two new types of QC probes as a means of confirming the quality of the uniformity of attached probes and the quantification of targets. We compared the signal intensities and fluorescent images of the QC and target-specific probes of arrays containing only target-specific probes and those containing both QC and target-specific probes. In a comparison of quality control methods, it was found that the arrays containing QC probes could check spot-uniformity or spot defects during all processes of array fabrication, including after spotting, after washing, and after hybridization. In a comparison of quantification results, the array fabricated by the method using QC probes showed linear and regular results because it was possible to normalize variations in spot size and morphology and amount of attached probe. This method could avoid errors originating in probe concentration and spot morphology because it could be normalized by QC probes. There were significant differences in the signal intensities of all mixtures (P<0.05). This result indicates that the method using QC probes is more useful than the ordinary method for quantification of mixed target. In the quantification of mixed targets, this method could determine a range for mixed targets of various amounts. Our results suggest that methods using QC probes for array fabrication are very useful to the quality control of spots in the fabrication processes of quantitative oligonucleotide arrays.

The purpose of this paper is to propose an approach to design a robust servo controller based on the mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ theory, and confirm its validity by applying to a benchmark problem. First, the existing $H_{\infty}$ servo problem is modified to a structure for the mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ control problem by virtue of the internal model principle. By making use of proposed structure, we can divide specifications required in the robust servo system design into $H_2$ and $H_{\infty}$ performance criteria, respectively. It is shown that the proposed design approach is quite effective through an application to a three inertia benchmark problem.

This paper describes an acoustic echo canceller with double-talk using BSS(: Blind Signal Separation) based on the geometric concept. The acoustic echo canceller may be deteriorated or diverged during the double-talk period. So we use the blind signal separation to detect the double talking by separating the near-end speech signal from the mixed microphone signal. In the closed reverberation environment, the blind signal separation extracts the near-end signal from unknown signals with the transformation and rotation based on the geometric concept. By this method, the acoustic echo canceller operates irrespective of double-talking. We verified performances of the proposed acoustic echo canceller by computer simulations. The results show that the acoustic echo canceller with this algorithm detects the double-talk periods thoroughly, and operates stably in the normal state without diverging of coefficients after ending the double-talking.

Transmission signal in wireless environment receives a signal in which a source signal, interference, and noise are mixed. The goal of this study is to estimate the desired signal from the received signal. In this paper, we have studied a method correctly estimating a target in spatial by modified beamformer method. The modified bemaformer uses an adaptive array antenna and perturbation matrix to obtain the optimal weight, and estimate the desired signal by radiating the beam in spatial. We estimate a desired signal of the target by improving resolution with the modified beamformer method which does not have complicated calculation amount. Through simulation, we compare and analyze the modified beamformer method and the MUSIC method with good resolution. In result of simulation, we showed that modified beamformer method has better resolution of 10degree than classical beamformer method and showed similar performance as the MUSIC method. The resolution of this paper was estimated to be about 5 degrees.

Points of sharp variations in images are the most important components when we analyze singularities of images. And they include a variety of information about the image's location and shape etc. So a lot of researches for detecting those edges have been continuing even now and at the early stage of the research, edge detection operators used relation among neighborhood pixels. However, such methods do not have excellent performance in the image which exists noise and can not detect edge selectively. In the meantime, the wavelet transform which is presented as a new technique of signal processing field is able to detect multiscale edge and is being applied widely in many fields that analyze singularities such as edge. For this reason, in this paper we detected image's line-edge elements with 2-D wavelet function, which is independent of line's width, in mixed noise environment.

Cooperative networks transmit signals form the source node to the destination node via several relay node where the combining and demodulation of relay aided signals provide the benefit of performance enhancement and data rate increment. In general, a repetitive manner transmission scheme in which the received signal from the source node is amplified/re-generated and forward to the destination node is widely used. In this paper, we analyzed the performance of cooperative networks using the mixed transmission scheme. The conventional modulation scheme is used in the source-relay links, and space-time code is applied in the relay-destination links. To reduce the complexity of the overall system, we adopt differential modulation which bypasses channel state information. We analyze bit error rate (BER) of the proposed system by considering the number of relay nodes, and the performances depending on the strength of transmission signal in the source-relays and rely-destination links are compared. In addition, we also discuss the system performance with the signal strength and the number of relay nodes simultaneously.

Delay reduction of vehicles at the intersection is highly dependent on the signal operation method. Most previous traffic operations have focused on minimizing delay by adjust traffic offset. However, these methods have limitation in solving traffic problem if the volume reaches or exceeds the capacity. In this paper, it was analyzed that the effectiveness of various signal operation methods such as left-turn prohibition, and using protected mixed with permitted left turn using the traffic data from Daejeon city. In case of the left-turn prohibition of a intersection, the control delay reduced from 54.2 seconds to 22.7 seconds and especially, the delay of the southbound was drastically reduced. In addition, the delay was highly reduced from 27.0 seconds to 12.1 seconds when the operation system was changed to use protected mixed with permitted left turn.
