The waveform coding is concerned with simply preserving the wave shape of speech signal through a redundancy reduction process. In area of the speech synthesis, the waveform codings with high quality are mainly used to the synthesis by analysis. However, because the parameters of this coding are not classified as either excitation parameters and vocal tract parameters, it is difficult to applying the waveform coding to the synthesis by rule. In this paper, we proposed a new pitch alternation method that can change the pitch periods in the waveform coding by using the cepstrum analysis. Thus, it is possible that the waveform coding is carried out the synthesis by rule in speech processing.

The stud is one of the most frequently used shear connectors which are important to the steel-concrete composite action. The static and fatigue behavior of stud in the steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) were particularly concerned in this study through the push-out tests and analysis. It was for the purpose of investigating and explaining a tendency proposed by the current existing researches that the SFRC may ameliorate the shear connector's mechanical performance, and thus contributing to the corresponding design practice. There were 20 test specimens in the tests and 8 models in the analysis. According to the test and analysis results, the SFRC had an obvious effect of restraining the concrete damage and improving the stud static performance when the compressive strength of the host concrete was relatively low. As to the fatigue aspect, the steel fibers in concrete also tended to improve the stud fatigue life, and the favorable tensile performance of SFRC may be the main reason. But such effect was found to vary with the fatigue load range. Moreover, the static and fatigue test results were compared with several design codes. Particularly, the fatigue life estimation of Eurocode 4 appeared to be less conservative than that of AASHTO, and to have higher safety redundancy than that of JSCE hybrid structure guideline.

A morphological analysis is described to extract the informations which are required in syntactic and semantic analysis of the Korean language. The noun and particle are separated in a noun phrase, the selecting conditions are specified to analyze the compound noun and a restoring rule is represented to process the irregular compound noun. The stem and ending are separated in normal verbals and a logical representive form is proposed to the anomalously inflected word and contracted vowels. The logical representation is composed of the attribute value an analyzing rule. The redundancy of noun is reduced in the dictionary as the verb of a "Nounformed HA-" is processed by "noun" and "HA-", separately and a predicative "IDA" is analyzed by Q parameter. The processing form of negation is also derived and the morpheme and basic structure of compound predicative parts are presented.

임베디드 시스템의 신인도(Dependability)를 높이기 위해 기존 컴퓨터시스템에서 주로 사용되는 결함허용(Fault-tolerant) 기술을 그대로 적용시키는 것은 임베디드 시스템의 엄격한 비용 제약과 설치 공간의 부족 등의 이유로 적합하지 않다. 본 논문에서는 여분(Redundancy)을 최소 한도로 사용하는 차량 임베디드 시스템에 적합한 소프트웨어 결함허용 기법을 연구하였으며, 임베디드 시스템의 신인도를 반영할 수 있는 척도인 유용도(Utility) 척도를 정의하고, 임베디드 시스템의 결함허용을 위해 고려해야 할 각각의 재구성 조합에 대한 유용도 명가를 수행하였다. 이를 통해 차량 임베디드 시스템의 일부 부품이 결함 시, 가능한 최대의 유용도를 제공하는 구성조합으로 재구성 작업을 가능하게 하였다.

본 논문에서는 리던던트 웨이블릿 변환을 이용한 지형메쉬(terrain mesh)의 간략화 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 MRA(Multi-Resolution Analysis) 기법을 이용한 지형메쉬의 간략화 기법은 처리과정에서 다운샘플링이 일어나게 되어 지형 데이터 중요한 특성점을 추출할 때 부분적으로 손실된 데이터를 이용한다는 단점을 갖는다. 이 논문은 전처리단계(preprocessing process)에서 지형메쉬의 간략화를 목표로 하여, 지형의 중요점 추출과정에서 리던던트 웨이블릿 변환기법을 이용하며 지형의 중요점 추출의 정확도를 높이고, 지형데이터가 갖는 중복성 (redundancy)을 제거하여 방대한 지형데이터를 간략화하는 방법을 제안한다.

This paper is to investigate the potentials of the elastic seismic design of twisted high-rise steel diagrid frame buildings in the strong wind and moderate/low seismicity regions. First, the prototypes of high-rise steel diagrid frames with architectural plans that have a twist angle of 0 (regular-shaped), 1, and 2 degrees were designed to resist wind. Then, the effects of the twist angle on the estimated quantities and structural redundancies of the diagrid frames were examined. Second, the seismic performance of the wind-designed prototype buildings under a low seismicity was evaluated. The response spectrum analysis was conducted for the service level earthquake (SLE) having 43-year return period and the maximum considered earthquake (MCE) having 2475-year return period. The evaluation resulted that the twisted high-rise steel diagrid frames resisted the service level earthquake elastically and most of their diagrid members remained elastic even under the maximum considered earthquake.

As the demand of English education is increasing, the demand for Native English speaking teachers (NEST) is rising, especially in Asian countries. However, due to the low number of NEST, the Korean government is suggesting that Filipino Women be used as English teachers as an alternative. This study aims to answer three questions: (1) are Filipino women in Korea qualified to teach English based on the error analysis of their written essays? (2) what are the linguistic features found in their diagnostic essays? and (3) is their written English better than Korean college students' written English based on the comparison of the two groups? The findings from the Filipino participants show the most frequently occurring errors are related to punctuation usage (commas and hyphens), vocabulary (word choice), verb usage, redundancy, and even as basic as capitalization usage. The results from the comparison of the two groups show that the percentage of the Filipino participants' written error was 14% while the percentage of the Korean participants was 17%. The findings would give us some ideas on the qualification of Filipino women in Korea as English teachers.

In this paper, we propose a method that applies matrix decomposition technique to the connection of actuator capabilities of each robot to object acceleration limits for multiple cooperative robot systems. The robot systems under consideration are composed of several robot manipulators and each robot contacts a single object to carry the object while satisfying the constraints described in kinematics as well as dynamics. By manipulating kinematic and dynamic equations of both robots and objects, we at first derive a matrix relating joint torques with object acceleration, manipulate the null space of the matrix, and then we decompose the matrix into three parts representing indeterminancy, connectivity, and redundancy. With the decomposed matrix we derive the boundaries of object accelerations from given joint actuators. To show the validity of the proposed method some examples are given in which the results can be expected by intuitive observation.

Transform-domain JND (Just Noticeable Difference)-based for PVC (Perceptual Video Coding) is often performed in quantization processes to effectively remove perceptual redundancy. This study examined the JND-suppression effects on quantized coefficients of transform in HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding). To reveal the JND-suppression effect in quantization, the properties of the floor functions were used for modeling the quantized coefficients, and a JND-adjustment process in an HEVC-compliant PVC scheme was used to tune the JND values by analyzing the JND suppression effect. In the experimental results, the bitrate reduction decreases slightly, but the PSNR and perceptual quality are improved significantly when the proposed JND adjustment process is applied.

이중화는 전력 전송 시스템, 발전 시스템, 철도 제어 시스템 등 많은 자동화 시스템에서 유지 보수 및 안정도 증진을 위해 사용된다. 그러나, 이중화 개념을 도입할 경우 각 제어기나 통신 라인 측정시스템 등 모든 구성요소들이 2배로 사용되게 되어 시스템 구축 비용이 증가하고 이중화 제어를 위한 알고리즘 및 COL(Change Over Logic)과 같은 이중화 제어용 모듈 등을 추가해야 하는 추가적인 부담도 발생된다. 하지만, 시스템을 이중화할 경우 전체 시스템의 안정도가 어느 정도 개선되는지에 대한 연구는 미미하며, 그럼에도 불구하고 각 산업 전반에서 다양한 구조의 이중화를 체택하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 확률을 기반으로 시스템 이중화가 전체 시스템 안정도에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 분석하였다.
