Acoustic characteristics of a sound absorbing material can be identified, if the characteristic impedance and propagation constants are known, which have generally been determined experimentally. One easy method determining these two essential parameters is to measure the one dimensional wave characteristics in the impedance tube. In th udy, the effects of backing conditions on the impedance tube measurement have been examined using several pairs of generally used end conditions. The results showed that the measured values are similar for most pairs of end conditions: however, it was observed that the measured characteristic impedance for different thickness did not agree well for some pairs. In this work, the multi termination method, using three or more known backing con ns, was suggested to reduce such random errors, which are mostly caused by the test procedure. Employing three terminations as a set, comprised of a rigid end, an end with porous material, and an end with a backing cavity, it was demonstrated that improved measured results could be obtained for an open cell PU foam varying widely with three different thicknesses.

다시점 비디오는 하나의 3차원 장면을 여러 시점에서 다수의 카메라로 촬영한 동영상으로 다시점 비디오 부호화는 카메라의 수에 비례하여 데이터의 양이 증가하기 때문에 계산량을 줄일 수 있는 다시점 비디오 부호화 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서 다시점 비디오의 부호화를 위한 움직임 추정의 계산량을 줄이면서 화질을 유지하는 움직임 추정 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 움직임 추정 기법은 움직임 벡터의 분포 특성을 이용한 효과적인 초기 종료 움직임 추정 기법이다. 제안한 움직임 추정기법은 계층적 움직임 추정 기법으로 다중 사각형 탐색 패턴, 래스터 탐색 패턴, 수정된 다이아몬드 탐색 패턴 그리고 작은 다이아몬드 탐색으로 이루어져있다. 제안한 기법의 성능은 JMVC의 고속 움직임 추정 기법인 TZ 탐색 기법과 전역 탐색 기법(FS)의 성능과 비교한 경우, 영상 화질과 비트량을 비슷하지만 움직임 추정 속도를 각각 약 1.7~4.5배, 90배 향상시킨다.

This paper proposes a new method to improve signal characteristics at branches frequently met in system-level routing. We also introduce the numerical formula which can estimate the time delay due to branches and the simple design guideline for system-level routing. Finally, we propose the routing method which can eliminate the signal reflection for the case of one driver and two receivers (multi-drop topology).

Effects of backing conditions on the impedance tube measurement are investigated experimentally, by using several pairs of generally employed end conditions. The results show that the measured values are similar for most of pairs, except the case of using an open pipe condition. In addition, the random error is investigated in the viewpoint of the variation of test conditions. The multi-termination method is suggested for minimizing such a random error.

We analyze a voice/data integrated traffic model of the cellular mobile communication system with hybrid guard channels for voice and handoff calls. In a multi-service integrated wireless environment, quality of service guarantee is crucial for smooth transportation of real time information. Real time voice traffic requires a guaranteed upper bounded on both delay and packet error rate, whereas data traffic does not. Voice traffic has high transmission priority over data packets. Thus one of the important problems is the design of admission control schemes which can efficiently accommodate the differential quality of service requirements. In this paper, a hybrid guard channel scheme is considered in which arriving calls are assigned channels as long as the number of busy channels in the cell is below a predetermined first threshold. When the number of busy channels reaches the first threshold, new originating data calls are queued in the infinite data buffer. Then reaches second threshold, only handoff calls are assigned the remaining channels and new originating voice calls are blocked. We evaluate the system by a two-dimensional Markov chain approach and generating function method and obtain performance measures included blocking probability and forced termination probability.

본 논문에서는 H.264/AVC의 다시점 비디오 부호화의 고속화 방법을 제안한다. 다시점 비디오는 부호화해야 할 데이터의 양이 일반 비디오보다 더 많으며, 전형적인 비디오 부호화 방법에서 사용하는 인터-움직임 예측에 덧붙여 인터-부등 예측을 이용하기 때문에 예측해야할 정보가 막대하게 커진다. 실험을 통해 비디오 부호화에서 사용되는 각 예측의 효율이 인트라, 인터-부돈, 인터-움직임 그리고 인터-skip 순으로 점점 좋아진다는 점에 착안하여 각 GOP 단위로 적응적인 문턱값을 계산하여 인터-부등 및 인트라 예측을 조기 종료하는 고속화 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 실험 결과 제안하는 방법은 여러 실험 비디오에 대해서 기존의 방법에 비해 약 32%가량 개선된 연산 속도를 보였으며, 비트량 및 왜곡의 증가는 상대적으로 적었다.

본 논문에서는 깊이 정보만을 이용하여 얼굴을 고속으로 추적하는 방법을 제안하다. 그 방법으로는 템플릿 매칭 방법을 사용하며, 템플릿 매칭 방법의 문제점인 과다한 수행시간의 문제를 해결하여 고속으로 얼굴을 추적하기 위하여 조기종료 기법과 sparse 탐색 기법을 적용하고, 그에 따른 추적오류를 보정하고자 주변 화소들을 대상으로 매칭보정을 수행한다. 얼굴의 움직임에 따른 깊이의 변화를 보정하기 위해 추적할 얼굴의 깊이 값을 추정하고 그 결과에 따라 템플릿의 크기를 조정한다. 또한 조정된 템플릿의 크기에 따라 템플릿 매칭을 수행할 탐색영역을 조정한다. 자체 제작한 테스트 시퀀스들을 사용하여 추적에 필요한 파리미터들을 결정하였으며, 또 다른 자체 제작한 테스트 시퀀스들과 MPEG에서 제공한 다시점 테스트 시퀀스를 제안한 방법에 적용하는 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 Kinect을 이용하여 자체제작($640{\times}480$) 시퀀스에서는 약 3%의 추적오류와 2.45ms의 수행시간을 보였으며, Lovebird1($1024{\times}768$) 시퀀스에서는 약 1%의 추적 오류와 7.46ms의 수행시간을 보였다.

Flexible tactile sensors can provide valuable feedback to intelligent robots about the environment. This is especially important when the robots, e.g., service robots, are sharing the workspace with human. This paper presents a flexible tactile sensor that was manufactured by direct writing technique, which is one of 3D printing method with multi-walled carbon nano-tubes. The signal processing system consists of two parts: analog circuits to amplify and filter the sensor output and digital signal processing algorithms to reduce undesired noise. Finally, experimental setup is implemented and evaluated to identify the characteristics of the flexible tactile sensor system. This paper showed that this type of sensors can detect the initiation and termination of contacts with appropriate signal processing.

Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) gravimeter satellites observed the Earth gravity field with unprecedented accuracy since 2002. After the termination of GRACE mission, GRACE Follow-on (GFO) satellites successively observe global gravity field, but there is missing period between GRACE and GFO about one year. Many previous studies estimated terrestrial water storage (TWS) changes using hydrological models, vertical displacements from global navigation satellite system observations, altimetry, and satellite laser ranging for a continuity of GRACE and GFO data. Recently, in order to predict TWS changes, various machine learning methods are developed such as artificial neural network and multi-linear regression. Previous studies used hydrological and climate data simultaneously as input data of the learning process. Further, they excluded linear trends in input data and GRACE/GFO data because the trend components obtained from GRACE/GFO data were assumed to be the same for other periods. However, hydrological models include high uncertainties, and observational period of GRACE/GFO is not long enough to estimate reliable TWS trends. In this study, we used convolutional neural networks (CNN) method incorporating only climate data set (temperature, evaporation, and precipitation) to predict TWS variations in the missing period of GRACE/GFO. We also make CNN model learn the linear trend of GRACE/GFO data. In most river basins considered in this study, our CNN model successfully predicts seasonal and long-term variations of TWS change.

As the globalization of manufacturing companies continues, the scope of dependence between these companies and distributors, and other suppliers are growing very rapidly since no one company manufactures or distributes the whole product by themselves. And, the need to increase the efficiency of the whole supply chain is increasing. This paper deals with a multi-plant lot-sizing problem(MPLSP) which happens in a decentralized manufacturing system of a supply chain. In this study, we assume that the whole supply chain is driven by a single source of independent demand and many levels of dependent demands among manufacturing systems in the supply chain. We consider setup cost, transportation cost and time, and inventory holding cost as a decision factor in the MPLSP. The MPLSP is decomposed into two sub-problems: a planning problem of the whole supply chain and a lot-sizing problem of each manufacturing system. The supply chain planning problem becomes a pure linear programming problem and a Generalized Goal Decomposition method is used to solve the problem. Its result is used as a goal of the lot-sizing problem. The lot-sizing problem is solved using the CPLEX package, and then the coefficients of the planning problem are updated reflecting the lot-sizing solution. This procedure is repeated until termination criteria are met. The whole solution process is similar to Lagrangian relaxation method in the sense that the solutions are approaching the optimum in a recursive manner. Through experiments, the proposed closed-loop hierarchical planning and traditional hierarchical planning are compared to optimal solution, and it is shown that the proposed method is a very viable alternative for solving production planning problems of decentralized manufacturing systems and in other areas.
