본 논문에서는 청각 모델을 기초로 잡음에 강한 음성 특징 추출을 연구하였다. 청각모델은 basilar membrane 모델, 섬모세포(hair cell) 모델과 스펙트럼 출력단으로 구성하였다. Basilar membrane 모델은 음파의 진동에 따른 전달 특성을 묘사한 것으로 대역 통과 필터의 열로 나타난다. 섬모 세포 모델은 basilar membrane의 진동에 의한 신경 물질로의 변환을 나타낸다. 이것은 입력의 상대적인 값에 크게 반응하는 adaptation 기능을 이용하게 되며, 잡음 제거에 중요한 역할을 하게 된다. 스펙트럼 출력 단은 각 채널의 평균 firing rate를 이용하여 mean rate spectrum을 형성한다. 그리고 mean rate spectrum을 이용하여 특징 벡터를 추출하였다. 실험 결과는 청각 구조에 기초한 특징 추출이 다른 특징 추출 방법에 비해 잡음에서 더 향상된 성능을 가짐을 보였다.

Reliability evaluation of power distribution system is very important to both power utilities and customers. It present the probabilistic number and duration of interruption such as failure rate, SATDI, SAIFI, and CAIDI. However, it has a fatal weakness at reliability index because of accuracy of failure rate. In this paper, the Time-varying Failure Rate(TFR) of power distribution system equipment is extracted from the recorded failure data of KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Corporation) in Korea. For TFR extraction, it is used that the fault data accumulated by KEPCO during 10 years. The TFR is approximated to bathtub curve using the exponential(random failure) and Weibull(aging failure) distribution function. In addition, Kaplan-Meier estimation is applied to TFR extraction because of incomplete failure data of KEPCO. Finally, Probability plot and regression analysis is applied. It is presented that the extracted TFR is more effective and useful than Mean Failure Rate(MfR) through the comparison between TFR and MFR

This paper proposes an improved vascular pattern extraction algorithm for person verification applications. The proposed direction-based vascular pattern extraction (DBVPE) algorithm is based on the directional information of vascular patterns. It applies two different filters to the input images: row vascular pattern extraction filter (RVPEF) for effective extraction of the abscissa vascular patterns and column vascular pattern extraction filter (CVPEF) for effective extraction of the ordinate vascular patterns. We use the combined output of both filters to obtain the final hand vascular patterns. Unlike the conventional hand vascular pattern extraction algorithm, the directional extraction approach prevents loss of the vascular pattern connectivity. To validate the DBVPE algorithm, we used a prototype system with a DSP processor. The prototype system shows approximately a three-times better false acceptance rate (FAR) than the conventional single filter algorithm.

We studied a extraction and degradation of alginate from seaweed-stems using microorganism DS-02. DS-02 has a maximum growth rate at $30^{\circ}C$ and the enzyme has a maximum activity of alginate extraction at $35^{\circ}C.$ The yield of alginate extraction using DS-02 is about $16.0{\%}$ for 3.0 hour and molecular weight of the alginate decreased to about 1/8 of initial value after 24 hour extraction. Alginate extraction method by DS-02, compared with general alkali-extraction method, has an advantage of decreasing the molecular weight of alginate during extraction.

Purpose: Mandibular angle fractures constitute approximately 30% of mandibular fractures, and the mandibular third molar is usually in line with the fracture. This study evaluated the relationship between the extraction of a tooth in line with a mandibular angle fracture and the infection rate. Methods: One hundred and forty seven patients with mandibular angle fractures containing a tooth in line with the fracture from 2005 to 2008 were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups based on an extraction, and the infection rates were evaluated in both groups. Results: An extraction was performed in 70 patients (47.6%) and postoperative infections occurred in 14 patients (9.5%). Six (8.6%) of the 70 patients in the extraction group and 8 (10.4%) of the 77 patients in the non-extraction group had an infection. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.708). Conclusion: These results show that there is no increased risk of postoperative complications when a tooth is present

Hydrodynamic properties have been investigated for promising extraction systems: $0.05mol\;L^{-1}$ solutions of di(N-ethyl-4-ethylanilide) of 2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-dicarboxylic acid, di(N-ethyl-4-fluoroanilide) of 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid and di(N-ethyl-4-hexylanilide) of 2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-dicarboxylic acid in meta-nitrobenzotrifluoride (F-3) or trifluoromethylphenyl sulfone (FS-13) diluents. To evaluate the perspectives for their use as extraction mixtures at the final stage of the nuclear fuel cycle, the change in density, viscosity, surface tension, and phase separation rate under irradiation with accelerated electrons was studied. The concentrations of extractants in the irradiated mixtures have been determined and the radiation-chemical yields have been calculated. Irradiation significantly decreases the phase separation rate at the stages of extraction and back extraction for all the studied systems. The viscosity of the DYP-7 solution in FS-13 increase above the values suitable for its use in extraction processes.

For the purpose of development of a liquid membrane permeator which separates metal ions from aqueous solutions continuously and effectively, a continuous membrane permeator with the membrane solution trapped between extraction and stripping phases by two micro-porous hydrophilic films was manufactured. Experimental researches on the separation of zinc ion from aqueous solutions were performed in the liquid membrane permeator with 30 vol % D2EHPA solution in kerosine as liquid membrane. As results, the liquid membrane permeator separates zinc ion from aqueous solutions continuously and effectively in the wide range of operating conditions. A simple mass transfer rate model using equilibrium constant of the extraction reaction for the system used were proposed, and the model was compared with experimental results of separation of zinc ion in the permeator. And the effects of operating factors, such as space time, pH of extraction solution, extraction temperature, on the separation rate of zinc ion in the permeator were experimentally examined.

Key frame extraction has been recognized as one of tile important research issues in video information retrieval. Although progress has been made in key frame extraction, the existing approaches do not evaluate the importance of extracted frame Quantitatively, and Dey are computationally expensive or ineffective. In this Paper, we introduce a new 미해rithm for key frame extraction using shot coverage and distortion. The algorithm finds significant key frames from candidate key frames. When selecting the candidate frames, the coverage rate to the total frames from each frame is computed by using the difference between the adjacent frames in tile shot. The frames within 10$\%$ from the top are selected as the candidates. Then, by comfuting the distortion rate of the candidates against all frames, pick the frames which arc most representative are selected. The performance of the proposed algorithm has been verified by a statistical test. Experiments show that more than 13-50$\%$ improvement has been obtained by the proposed algorithm compared to the existing methods.

Lip reading is a field of image processing to assist the process of sound recognition. In some environment, the capture of sound signal usually has significant noise and therefore, the recognition rate of sound signal decreases. Lip reading can be a good feature for the increase of recognition rates. Conventional lip extraction methods have been proposed widely. Maia et. al. proposed a method by the sum of Cr and Cb. However, there are two problems as follows: the point with maximum saturation is not always regarded as lips region and the inner part of lips such as oral cavity and teeth can be classified as lips. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a method which adopts the histogram-based classifier for the extraction of lips region. The proposed method consists of two stages, learning and test. The amount of computation is minimized because this method has no color conversion. The performance of proposed method gives 66.8% of detection rate compared to 28% of conventional ones.
