Dysarthria is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that affects the control of articulation and pitch; therefore, it affects the uniqueness of sound produced by the speaker. Hence, dysarthric speaker recognition is a challenging task. In this paper, a feature-extraction method based on deep belief networks is presented for the task of identifying a speaker suffering from dysarthria. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated and compared with well-known Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient features. For classification purposes, the use of a multi-layer perceptron neural network is proposed with two structures. Our evaluations using the universal access speech database produced promising results and outperformed other baseline methods. In addition, speaker identification under both text-dependent and text-independent conditions are explored. The highest accuracy achieved using the proposed system is 97.3%.

The purpose of this study is to practice the method which can estimate 28-days strength of concrete in advance. This method is made for reliant quality control. Based on existing experiment, concrete that flyash added and normal concrete are placed into wall structure, and it is examined the difference between experiment use concrete and field use concrete. The result of this study are as follows : 1) Core test specimen have 10% lower strength to standard curing specimen. 2) At 28-days accelerated strength by microwave, average 35% in normal concrete, average 23% in flyash added concrete. 3) At coefficient of determination between compressive strength and accelerated strength, 0.84 in normal concrete core, 0.86 in standard curing normal concrete, 0.86 in flyash added concrete, 0.90 in standard curing flyash added concrete.

This paper proposes a reverse filtering system of sound field obtaining a state of sound field transmitted from two sounds, using an adaptive filter and neural network. The proposed system uses the reverse filtering method with calculating and renewing a coefficient of a filter, using least mean square. Based on training the neural network, experiments confirm that the proposed system is effective for a simple waveform with non-linear distortion, by using neural network and adaptive filtering method.

A numerical analysis is made to investigate the wave absorption efficiency of a OWC-type wave power generator. Energy absorption by an OWC(Oscillating Water Column) air-chamber is computed in regular waves, taking account of the oscillating surface-pressure, due to pressure drop, across the duct of the air chamber. The problem is formulated in the scope of potential theory and solved by the Localized Finite Element Method(LFEM), based on the classical variational principle. The efficiency of energy absorption is investigated by. changing wave conditions, sea-bottom slope and pressure drop coefficient.

The purpose of this research is to example the general trend of the service environment evaluation of the silver town and classify based on the service environment evaluation to suggest a effective method and alternatives fur development companies. The survey population of this study focused on 40s and 50s' middle aged both genders living in the Seoul and national capital region, we used random sampling method. The analytical methods used in this study were frequency, mean, standard deviation, factor analysis, Chi-Squae analysis, ANOVA, cluster Analysis, post-hoc estimation (Duncan test), To verify the reliability of each measure, Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used. As a result of classifying the environment evaluation elements, it was classified into 5 groups for the differentiating strategy on each group. The groups are: life support service type, medical and health support service type, cultural support service type, indifference type, and food support service type.

In this paper, we propose a new scheme of motion tracking based on fuzzy inference (FI)and wavelet transform (WT) from image sequences. First, we present a WT to segment a feature extraction of dynamic image . The coefficient matrix for 2-level DWT tent to be clustered around the location of important features in the images, such as edge discontinuities, peaks, and corners. But these features are time varying owing to the environment conditions. Second, to reduce the spatio-temporal error, We develop a fuzzy inference algorithm. Some experiments are peformed to testify the validity and applicability of the proposed system. As a result, proposed method is relatively simple compared with the traditional space domain method. It is also well suited for motion tracking under the conditions of variation of illumination.

A simple and convenient method was introduced to determine the kinetic parameters for various enzymatic reaction kinetics. The method based on integrated formular can be applied to the parameter estimations from a single experiment. A modified three-parameter model was applied for the parameter estimation in reversible reaction and the equilibrium substrate concentration could be also estimated. It is possible to identify the enzymatic reaction pattern by inspecting the parameter values and the square of the correlation coefficient.

In this paper, we present the method of skipping the quantization for fast video encoding. Based on the theoretical analyzes for the integer transform and quantization in H.264 video coder, we can derive a sufficient threshold under which each quantized coefficient becomes zero. In addition, in order to reduce the complexity of the fast video encoding, complexity is improved, leading to improvement of total encoding time saving for given threshold. The simulation results show the capability of the proposed algorithm.

This study reviews concepts, theories and formulas included in standards on soil-structure interaction and also shows practical example of application for engineers. Real structures are 3 dimensional and multi degree of freedom but they are often idealized to single degree of freedom for convenience. In this study, detailed procedures to calculate soil spring constants and damping coefficients and method to model soil-structure system are explained. Additionally, case studies to judge fixed base condition and evaluation of applicability of simple analysis method based on response spectra are performed.

Derailment is likely to have a direct connection with human life and must be eliminated. A traveling safety evaluation method based mainly on derailment coefficient has already established. But this method is very difficult because Derailment is caused by multiple factors. To evaluate the derailment factor of running train that runs on the curved track, we make use of mechanism that wheel loads and lateral forces were affected by track and rolling stock parameter. In this paper, deal with a search on the parameter and derailment factor. According to results of computer simulation value of Q/P, running safety is connected with operation velocity, curve radius, cant, track irregularity, suspension stiffness and static wheel load ratio, etc.
