  • 본 논문에서는 잡음이 존재하는 환경에 강인한 것으로 알려져 있는 투영 방법을 우 도 측정에 가중 함수와 결합하여 사용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 반연속 HMM을 이용한 고립 단어의 인식 실험 결과, 제안한 방법이 실험에 사용된 잡음의 환경들에서 모두 좋은 성능을 나타내었다. 아울러 병렬 모델 결합 방법을 반연속 HMM에 적용하였는데 이는 코드북의 변 환반으로 쉽게 잡음의 특성을 반영할 수 있다. 가중 투영 우도 측정 방법을 병렬 모델 결합 방법에 적용한 경우에도 우수한 성능을 거둘 수 있었다.

  • In this paper a new method is proposed to identify a modulation method in the case of unknown digitally modulated input signals. The proposed identification method is implemented with an artificial neural network which is based on characteristic feature extracted from the instantaneous amplitude the instantaneous phase and the instantaneous frequency of the input signals. The proposed method was simulated with 9 type signals (ASK2, FSK2, FSK4, PSK2, PSK4, PSK8, QAM8, QAM16) in a noisy communication environment. The results show that the artificial neural network can accurately recognize all kinds of patterns.

  • The human being uses speech signals to exchange information. When background noise is present, speech recognizers experience performance degradations. Speech recognition through speech enhancement in the noisy environment was studied. Histogram method as a reliable noise estimation approach for spectral subtraction was introduced using MFCC method. The experiment results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

  • This paper presents an algorithm of local map building for autonomous robot navigation using LASER range finder information. We develop a model of sensor output for a LASER range finder, and obtain an output data of the LASER range finder for a given environment. From the output data, a local map is obtained through the following procedures: (1) filtering of output data to remove noisy and unnecessary data, (2) comparison of filtered data with the original data to restore useful data, (3) thickening of the map obtained from the restored data, and (4) skeletonizing of the thickened map to get a final local map. Through some simulation studies, a map is obtained from the LASER range finder information for a given indoor environment, and is compared with the environment.

  • This is a study to grasp the correlation between high school students' social persenality and residential environment. THe samples were 197 boys and 200 girls who were attending the high schools located in Pusan. Social personality which contains family relations and social relations was measured by the standardized test of K.T.C. The path-analysis was used to make the causal relations of the collected data clear. RESULTS : 1. Feeling on the residential environment underwent the most potent influence by the floor space per person and social personality by feeling on the residential environment. 2. For the boy-students, the family relations andsocial relations was affected by the case of renthouse, the family relations by the case of noisy residence, and the social relations by the case of no-private room. 3. For the girl-students, the cases of higher stories and having private room made the family relations unharmonious, the cases of narrow floor space per person and the single house made the social relations troublesome, too.

  • Many studies for measuring vibration using image signal are suggested. These methods can measure vibration of multi-points simultaneously. However, it has the disadvantage that is very sensitive to an environment. If the measured environment is not good, image signals can be measured including much background noise. So, it is difficult to obtain accurate vibration from the measured image signals. Another problem is that camera imaging has a resolution limit. Because the resolution of the camera image is relatively much lower than that of a data acquisition system, accurate measuring vibration cannot be performed. In this paper, we proposed the enhanced technique for measuring vibration using camera signal. The key word of this paper is a curve fitting. The curve fitting can exactly detect the measurement line of interested object. So, we can measure the vibration in noisy environment. Also, it can overcome the resolution limit.

  • Maximum likelihood linear regression (MLLR) adaptation experiences severe performance degradation with very tiny amount of adaptation data. Eigenspace- based MLLR, as an alternative to MLLR for fast speaker adaptation, also has a weak point that it cannot deal with the mismatch between training and testing environments. In this paper, we propose a simultaneous fast speaker and environment adaptation based on eigenspace-based MLLR. We also extend the sub-stream based eigenspace-based MLLR to generalize the eigenspace-based MLLR with bias compensation. A vocabulary-independent word recognition experiment shows the proposed algorithm is superior to eigenspace-based MLLR regardless of the amount of adaptation data in diverse noisy environments. Especially, proposed sub-stream eigenspace-based MLLR with bias compensation yields 67% relative improvement with 10 adaptation words in 10 dB SNR environment, in comparison with the conventional eigenspace-based MLLR.

  • The performance of speech recognition in car environment is severely degraded when there is music or news coming from a radio or a CD player. Since reference signals are available from the audio unit in the car, it is possible to remove them with an adaptive filter. In this paper, we present experimental results of speech recognition in car environment using the echo canceller. For this, we generate test speech signals by adding music or news to the car noisy speech from Aurora2 DB. The HTK-based continuous HMT system is constructed for a recognition system. In addition, the MMSE-STSA method is used to the output of the echo canceller to remove the residual noise more.

  • As the economy has grown and the main industry in Korea has been changed from secondary industry to tertiary industry, the importance of indoor environment has been a matter of common concern, in which one of the main concerns is to improve the indoor acoustic conditions. However, even though this is required more than before, there are no measures to protect the human being from the noise of electric home appliances. This is owing to the absence of the data about sound power level of electric home appliances. So, we investigate the sound power level of them and analyze the acoustical characteristics of each one. First, we tried to investigate the sound power measurement method of each electric home appliance. After it we test the sound power level of them. From the survey, we can know that the vacuum cleaner is the most noisy electric home appliance, and the refrigerator is the least noisy one. The noise of a range hood is distributed over a wide range frequency. Lastly, we intented to propose the proper method measuring sound power level on each electric home appliance.

  • In this paper, a scheme of noise cancellation using spectral subreaction method with single input in an autombile noise environment is proposed. In order to remove the changing automonile noise components form the noisy speech signal, the noise of various states is analyzed and its characteristics are presented. For the decision of speech/nonspeech and the estimation of noise spectrum, a classification function is proposed on the basis of noise analysis. This function presents the precise decision of speech/nonspeech and the optimal estimation of noise spectrum with less computation. As the result of the estimation of noise spectrum by the proposed classification function, the clean speech signal is extracted from the noisy speech signal with high signal-to-ratio.
