In this paper, the AEC(acoustic echo canceller) is designed and implemented using VHDL(VHSIC hardware description language). The designed Echo Canceller employs the pipeline and the master-slave structure, and is realized with FPGA. As an adaptive algorithm, the Normalized LMS algorithm is used. For the coefficient adjustment, the Stochastic Iteration Algorithm(SIA) which uses only current residual values is used and the number of registers are evidently reduced and convergence speed is also much improved comparing to existing methods by using EAB of FPGA for FIR filter structure of transceiver. The designed Echo Canceller is verified with the test board implemented for this paper. From the timing simulation echo signals at about 1500 sampling data are converged and ERLE is improved by about 42-dB.

Impedance analysis of a Solenoid sensor to detect the cross-sectional area of non-ferromagnetic stranded conductors is described in this paper. To inspect electromagnetic characteristics of conductive materials, a nondestructive test eddy current sensor with an encircling coil is chosen. As solving Maxwell equation, normalized impedance response of the sensor within a conducting rod is modeled and the results are expanded to the stranded wires. Geometrical property affecting on stranded structure is considered and a numerical and experimental study is also presented.

C. elegans often used to study of function of gene, but it is difficult for human observation to distinguish the mutants of C. elegans. To solve this problem, the system, which can be classified automatically using the computer vision, is studying now. In the previous works , they described the auto-tracking system and the egg-laying timing modeling, which are used to automated-classily system. In this paper, we use three kinds of features, which are related to movement , size and posture of the worm, and each feature is described mathematically and normalized. In experimental result, we validated the features for the hierarchical clustering, And we used the Calinski and Harabasz's method to find the appropriate cluster number.

Seasonal and interannual variation of volume transport through the La-Perouse Strait were estimated using the difference of sea level observed at Krillion of Sakhalin, Russia, and Wakkanai of Hokkaido, Japan, during the period of 1975-1988. Historical sea level measurements between Russian and Japanese tide gauge data were normalized using an independent direct volume transport measurement. Volume transport from the East Sea (Sea of Japan) to the Sea of Okhotsk varied from -0.01 to 1.18 Sv with an annual mean value of 0.61 Sv. Monthly water transport rates showed a unimodal distribution with its maximum occurring in summer (August) and minimum in winter (December-February). The annual mean volume transport varied from 0.2 to 0.8 Sv during the period of 1975-1988 with the maximum variance of 0.6 Sv.

Research performance evaluation in Korean universities follows strict guidelines that specify scoring systems for publication venue categories and formulas for co-authorship credit allocation. To find out how the standards differ across universities and how they differ from bibliometric research evaluation measures, this study analyzed 25 standards from major Korean universities and rankings produced by applying standards and bibliometric measures such as publication and citation counts, normalized impact score, and h-index to the publication data of 195 tenure-track professors of library and information science departments in 35 Korean universities. The study also introduced a novel impact score normalization method to refine the methodology from prior studies. The results showed the university standards to be mostly similar to one another but quite different from citation-driven measures, which suggests the standards are not quite successful in quantifying the quality of research as originally intended.

A new iris segmentation and recognition method is described. Combining a statistical classification and elastic boundary fitting, the iris is first segmented robustly and accurately. Once the iris is segmented, one-dimensional signals are computed in the iris and decomposed into multiple frequency bands. Each decomposed signal is approximated by a piecewise linear curve connecting a small set of node points. The node points represent features of each signal. The similarity measture between two iris images is the normalized cross-correlation coefficients between simplified signals.

It is important for communication networks to possess the capability to overcome failures and provide survivable services. We address modeling and analysis of performability affected by both performance and availability of system components for a token ring network under failure and repair conditions. Stochastic reward nets (SRN) is an extension of stochastic Petri nets and provides compact modeling facilities for system analysis. In this paper, hierarchical SRN modeling techniques are used to overcome state largeness problem. The upper level model is used to compute availability and the lower level model captures the performance. And Normalized Throughput Loss (NTL) is obtained for the composite ring network for each node failures occurrence as a performability measure. One of the key contributions of this paper constitutes the Petri nets modeling techniques instead of complicate numerical analysis of Markov chains and easy way of performability analysis for a token ring network under SRN reward concepts.

This case study was peformed to assess the effectiveness of taping therapy for the patient who have delayed onset muscle soreness(DOMS ). The results were as follows: 1. Pain degree of VAS was decreased at every taping therapy. 2. The range of motion of ankle joint was increased at every taping therapy. 3. Diameter of calf muscle was increased at every taping therapy. 4. Pattern of gait was normalized at every taping therapy. We found improve of pain degree, ROM of ankle joint, diameter of calf muscle, and pattern of gait. Therefore we can infer that taping therapy had effectiveness to those who had DOMS.

In this paper, floor impact noise reduction in cruise ship cabin is studied. A mock-up is built by using 6t steel plate, and two identical cabins are made where 25t panel is used to construct wall and ceiling inside the steel structure. Various floating floor systems are tested for which normalized impact noise is measured according to ISO 140-7. In addition, floor SBN (Structure-borne Noise) and floor damping are measured to study the effect of floating floor structure. It is shown that VL(Visco-elastic Layer) is more effective when hard plates are added above the VL.

In this paper, finite element stamping analysis was carried out for the front lower arm to examine the applicability of solid element with damage theory to predict shear fracture phenomena induced by sheared edge as well as deformation mechanisms. Mechanical properties related to deformation and damage theory were determined from tensile test. Shear fracture was predicted by normalized Cockcroft-Latham model with initial imposition of the damage value along the sheared edge. Simulation results illustrated that the analysis with solid element and damage theory predicted edge profile, strain distribution, and forming load more accurately than the analysis with shell element. Simulation with solid element can also predict the shear fracture more exactly comparing to analysis with shell element and forming limit curve.
