Several prediction model of penetration rate (PR) of tunnel boring machines (TBMs) have been focused on applying to design stage. In construction stage, however, the expected PR and its trends are changed during tunneling owing to TBM excavation skills and the gap between the investigated and actual geological conditions. Monitoring the PR during tunneling is crucial to rescheduling the excavation plan in real-time. This study proposes a sequential prediction method applicable in the construction stage. Geological and TBM operating data are collected from Gunpo cable tunnel in Korea, and preprocessed through normalization and augmentation. The results show that the sequential prediction for 1 ring unit prediction distance (UPD) is R²≥0.79; whereas, a one-step prediction is R²≤0.30. In modeling algorithm, a gradient boosted regression tree (GBRT) outperformed a least square-based linear regression in sequential prediction method. For practical use, a simple equation between the R² and UPD is proposed. When UPD increases R² decreases exponentially; In particular, UPD at R²=0.60 is calculated as 28 rings using the equation. Such a time interval will provide enough time for decision-making. Evidently, the UPD can be adjusted depending on other project and the R² value targeted by an operator. Therefore, a calculation process for the equation between the R² and UPD is addressed.

Learning effect is an observation that the more times a task is performed, the less time is required to produce the same amount of outcomes. The construction industry heavily relies on repeated tasks where the learning effect is an important measure to be used. However, most construction durations are calculated and applied in real projects without considering the learning effects in each of the repeated activities. This paper applied the learning effect to the repeated activities in a small sized apartment construction project. The result showed that there was about 10 percent of difference in duration (one approach of the total duration with learning effects in 41 days while the other without learning effect in 36.5 days). To make the comparison between the two approaches, a large number of BIM based computer simulations were generated and useful patterns were recognized using machine learning algorithm named Decision Tree (See5). Machine learning is a data-driven approach for pattern recognition based on observational evidence.

Network optimization is being increasingly important and fundamental issue in the fields such as engineering, computer science, operations research, transportation, telecommunication, decision support systems, manufacturing, and airline scheduling. Networks provide a useful way to modeling real world problems and are extensively used in practice. Many real world applications impose on more complex issues, such as, complex structure, complex constraints, and multiple objects to be handled simultaneously and make the problem intractable to the traditional approaches. Recent advances in evolutionary computation have made it possible to solve such practical network optimization problems. The invited talk introduces a thorough treatment of evolutionary approaches, i.e., hybrid genetic algorithms approach to network optimization problems, such as, fixed charge transportation problem, minimum cost and maximum flow problem, minimum spanning tree problem, multiple project scheduling problems, scheduling problem in FMS.

In order to produce high quality synthesized speech, it is very important to get an accurate grapheme-to-phoneme conversion and prosody model from texts using natural language processing. Robust preprocessing for non-Korean characters should also be required. In this paper, we analyzed Korean texts using a morphological analyzer, part-of-speech tagger and syntactic chunker. We present a new grapheme-to-phoneme conversion method for Korean using a hybrid method with a phonetic pattern dictionary and CCV (consonant vowel) LTS (letter to sound) rules, for unlimited vocabulary Korean TTS. We constructed a prosody model using a probabilistic method and decision tree-based method. The probabilistic method atone usually suffers from performance degradation due to inherent data sparseness problems. So we adopted tree-based error correction to overcome these training data limitations.

Clock skew modeling is important in the performance evaluation and prediction of clock distribution network and it is one of the major constraints for high-speed operation of synchronous integrated circuits. In clock routing synthesis, it is necessary to reduce the clock skew under the specified skew bound, while minimizing the cost such as total wire length and delay. In this paper, a new efficient bounded clock skew routing method is described, which generalizes the well-known bounded skew tree method by allowing loops, i.e., link-edges can be inserted to a clock tree when they are beneficial to reduce the clock skew and/or the wire length. Furthermore, routing topology construction and wire sizing is used to reduce clock delay.

In this paper we consider detecting collisions between characters whose motion is specified by motion capture data. Since we are targeting on massive crowd simulation, we only consider rough collisions, modeling the characters as a disk in the floor plane. To provide efficient collision detection, we introduce a hierarchical bounding volume, the Motion Oriented Bounding Box tree (MOBB tree). A MOBBtree stores space-time bounds of a motion clip. In crowd animation tests, MOBB trees performance improvements ranging between two and an order of magnitude.

우리는 C++를 이용하여 음성인식기를 구현하여 기존의 C를 이용한 경우에 비하여 30% 수준의 소스로 표현하였고 인식기의 공동개발, 확장 및 개선, 기술 전수 등이 용이하게 되었으며 이를 음성인식 엔진 및 음성인식 연구를 위한 툴로 사용할 수 있게 되었다. 이 인식기의 특징으로는 연속 음성 및 대화체 음성을 인식할 수 있으며 trigram 언어 모델을 사용하였고 문맥 종속 음소 모델링에서는 기존의 triphone 보다 넓은 문맥을 고려한 n-phone context modeling을 사용하였으며 모델의 선정에는 음성학적 지식을 기반으로 한 질문을 사용한 decision tree를 사용하여 훈련에 나타나지 않은 단어나 문맥인 경우라도 가장 가까운 모델을 선정할 수 있게 하였다. 또, tree lexicon을 사용하여 속도를 개선하였으며 state 단위의 모델 공유를 통해 제한된 데이터를 이용하여 더 많은 모델을 훈련할 수 있어 성능을 개선하였다. 상용화를 염두에 두고 pc에서 구현하였다.

전화망에서의 연결 숫자 인식 시스템의 개발에 대한 내용을 다루며, 이 시스템에서 다양한 숫자 모델링 방법들을 구현하고 비겨하였다. Word 모델의 경우 문맥독립 whole-word 모델을 구현하였으며, sub-word 모델로는 triphone 모델과 불파음화 자음을 모음에 포함시킨 modified triphone 모델을 구현하였다. 그리고 tree-based clustering 방법을 sub-word 모델과 문맥종속 whole-word 모델에 적용하였다. 이와 같은 숫자모델들에 대해 연속 HMM을 이용하여 화자독립 연결숫자 인식 실험을 수행한 결과, 문맥종속 단어 모델이 문맥독립 단어 모델보다 우수한 성능을 나타냈으며, triphone 모델과 modified triphone 모델은 유사한 성능을 나타냈다. 특히 tree-based clustering 방법을 적용한 문맥종속 단어 모델이 4연 숫자열에 대해 99.8%의 단어 dsltlr률 및 99.1%의 숫자열 인식률로서 가장 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.
