In this paper, we propose an audio fingerprinting using robust hash based on the MCLT (Modulated Complex Lapped Transform) peak-pair. In existing methods, the robust audio fingerprinting is not generated if various distortions occurred; time-scaling, pith-shifting and equalization. To solve this problem, we used the spectrum of the MCLT, an adaptive thresholding method for detection of prominent peaks and the novel hash function in the audio fingerprinting. Experimental results show that the proposed method is highly robust in various distorted environments and achieves better identification rates compared to other methods.

This paper proposes a method to improve the mass spectral detection performance of the residual gas analyzer. By improving the mode estimation method for setting the threshold value and improving the additive noise elimination method, it is possible to detect mass spectrums having low peak values of the threshold level difficult to distinguish from noise. Ion signal blocks for each mass index with noise removed by the improved method are effective for eliminating invalid ion signals based on the linear and quadratic fittings. The mass spectrum can be obtained from the quadratic fitted curves for the reconstructed ion signal block using only the valid ion signals. In addition, the resolution of the mass spectrum can be improved by correcting the error caused by the shift of the spectral peak position. To verify the performance of the proposed method, computer simulations were performed using real ion signals obtained from the residual gas analysis system under development. The simulation results show that the proposed method is valid.

IR-UWB radar has been regarded as the most promising technology for non-contact respiration and heartbeat monitoring because of its ability of detecting slight motion even in submillimeter range. Measuring heart rate is most challenging since the chest movement by heartbeat is quite subtle and easily interfered with by a random body motion or background noise. Additionally, periodic sampling can be limited by the performance of computer that handles the radar signals. In this paper, we deploy Lomb-Scargle periodogram method that estimates heart rate even with irregularly sampled data and uneven signal amplitude. Lomb-Scargle periodogram is known as a method for finding periodicity in irregularly-sampled and noisy data set. We also implement a motion detection scheme in order to make the heart rate estimation pause when a random motion is detected. Our scheme is implemented using Novelda's X4M03 radar development kit and its corresponding drivers and Python packages. Experimental results show that the estimation with Lomb-Scargle periodogram yield more accurate heart rate than the method of measuring peak-to-peak distance.

The purpose of the neural image analysis is to trace the velocities and the directions of moving mitochondria migrating through axons. This paper proposes an automated technique for detecting axon structure. Previously, the detection process has been carried out using a partially automated technique combined with some human intervention. In our algorithm, a consolidated image is built by taking the maximum intensity value on the all image frames at each pixel Axon detection is performed through vessel enhancement filtering followed by a peak detection procedure. In order to remove errors contained in ridge points, a filtering process is devised using a local reliability measure. Experiments have been performed using real neural image sequences and ground truth data extracted manually. It has been turned out that the proposed algorithm results in high detection rate and precision.

This study was investigated the feasibility of AE application on in-process detection of tool fracture and chipping. Carbon steel SM45C workpiece with longitudinal slots was turned interruptedly on a lathe. AE RMS signal at tool fracture was observed and also the tangential force and the feed observed at the time of tool fracture, the levels of tangential force and the feed force at the time of fracture decrease considerably. In chipping, high level AE signal was observed but there were no changes of cutting force. Peak AE RMS squared is proportional to the area of tool fracture and resultant force. Fracture model of tool fracture is proposed as $V_{p}$ = $C_{1}$ $E_{1}$F(.DELTA. A)$_{0.5}$ and peak AE RMS shows strong correlation with the fracture parameter F(.DELTA.A)$^{0.5}$.

The relative detection efficiency of ${\gamma}$-ray full-energy Peaks was obtained by a pair-point method using the $^{56}$ Co source whose ${\gamma}$-ray relative emission rates were well measured. Three Ge(Li) detectors with active volumes of 43.8cc, 32.6cc, and 6cc were calibrated over the ${\gamma}$-ray energy energy range 800-5, 500keV.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive thresholding for edge detection. first, we got histograms for background image and image with moving object, respectively. Then we make difference histogram between histograms of background and object image. A thresholding value is decided using gradient of peak to peak in the difference histogram. The experimentation is processed using a moving car in the road. The result is that edge is detected well regardless of the brightness.

A new algorithm for detection of tool fracture in milling process was developed. The variation of the peak-to-valley value of cutting load was used in this algorithm. Various kinds of vectors representing the condition of tool, such as tool condition vector, reference tool condition vector, tool condition variation vector were defined. Using these vectors, tool fracture index which represents the magnitude of tool fracture and is independent of tool run-outs is developed. Small and large tool fracture and chipping under various cutting condition could be detected using proposed tool fracture index, which was proved with cutting force model and experiments.

In this paper, using a wide-band AE sensor with the frequency range from 100[kHz], the frequency spectra of AE signals generated from the corona discharges of the needle-plane electrode was analyzed to determine the proper ultrasonic sensor. We also examined the relationship between the magnitude of corona discharge and the magnitude of AE signals in peak-to-peak value under the application of 60[Hz] AC high-voltage in oil. From these results, the main frequency spectra of AE signals emitted from the corona discharges of the needle-plane gap were found to be 130[kHz] by the fast fourier transform. The magnitude of AE signals was proportional to the magnitude of corona discharge and discharge current pulse with increasing the applied voltages. Also the detection of corona discharge point location by AE signals was found to be possible by using two sensors.

Selective. highly stable determination of epinephrine(adrenalin) was achieved in cyclic voltammetric measurement carried out at electrochemically treated conductive boron-doped diamond electrode. Boron-doped diamond electrodes were prepared on single crystal Si wafers by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition and $B_{2}O_{3}$ was dissolved in acetone/methanol(9:1) mixture solution so that the B/C weight ratio ca. $10^{4}ppm$. Epinephrine is a kind of catecholamines, which secreted from adrenal marrow cells. The serious problem to detection of epinephrine is the interference phenomena of electroactive constituent. including AA. In this study. electrochemical treatment of BDD was carried out to discriminate between epinephrine and AA responses. Experimental results showed that the peak potential of AA oxidation shift to the positive direction and the oxidation peak of epinephrine was unchanged. The effect of electrochemical treatment was maintained up to 40hrs.
