In this paper, a new pre-processing method for the recognition of single vowels by use of spectrum envelope is presented. We use new extraction method of a spectrum envelope using the diffusion filter bank. By dividing analysis band of a diffusion filter bank into subbands, we decreased the number of diffusion process. And, by increasing the number of difference, we got higher selectivity. As a result of them, we reduced the total processing time, and got higher enhancement of discrimination. By getting 88.3% of average recognition rate for single vowels of natural voice through computer simulation. We confirmed it to be useful for speech recognition which use spectrum analysis of the voice signal to have many frequency components.

In order to establish the risk criteria of inundation due to typhoons or heavy rainfall, research is underway to predict the limit rainfall using basin characteristics, limit rainfall and artificial intelligence algorithms. In order to improve the model performance in estimating the limit rainfall, the learning data are used after the pre-processing. When 50.0% of the entire data was removed as an outlier in the pre-processing process, it was confirmed that the accuracy is over 90%. However, the use rate of learning data is very low, so there is a limitation that various characteristics cannot be considered. Accordingly, in order to predict the limit rainfall reflecting various watershed characteristics by increasing the use rate of learning data, the watersheds with similar characteristics were clustered. The algorithms used for clustering are K-Means, Agglomerative, DBSCAN and Spectral Clustering. The k-Means, DBSCAN and Agglomerative clustering algorithms are clustered at the impervious area ratio, and the Spectral clustering algorithm is clustered in various forms depending on the parameters. If the results of the clustering algorithm are applied to the limit rainfall prediction algorithm, various watershed characteristics will be considered, and at the same time, the performance of predicting the limit rainfall will be improved.

Nuclear power plants play a pivotal role in the global energy infrastructure, fulfilling a substantial share of the world's energy requirements in a sustainable way. The management of these facilities, especially the handling of spent nuclear fuel (SNF), necessitates meticulous inspections to guarantee operational safety and efficiency. However, the prevailing inspection methodologies lean heavily on human operators, which presents challenges due to the potential hazards of the SNF environment. This study introduces the design of a novel Pre-Batched Inspection Strategy (PBIS) that integrates robotic automation and image processing techniques to bolster the inspection process. This methodology deploys robotics to undertake tasks that could be perilous or time-intensive for humans, while image processing techniques are used for precise identification of SNF targets and regulating the robotic system. The implementation of PBIS holds considerable promise in minimizing inspection time and enhancing worker safety. This paper elaborates on the structure, capabilities, and application of PBIS, underlining its potential implications for the future of nuclear energy inspections.

In this paper, we propose novel two-way relaying scheme in which number of two users transmit the signal to number of two destination. The scheme is difference with conventional multi-hop two-way relay scheme in which number of two users exchange the each signal. In the conventional scheme, each user have to perform back-propagating self-interference method to remove the own signal from received signal. It occurred to increase the complexity for signal processing at the user. To overcome the problem, we apply the Pre-cancellation which can reduce the process of back-propagating self-interference to our proposal network Simulation result show that proposal scheme outperform the convention multi-hop two-way relay scheme. Also we analysis the trad-off between performance and complexity accordance with using Pre-cancellation method.

A novel process is proposed to improve oxidation resistance of Ti-Al intermetallic compounds at elevated temperatures by both Cr addition and pre-sulfidation, where TiAl alloys withlor without Cr addition were sulfidized at 1173K for 86.4ks at a 1.3 Pa sulfur partial pressure in a $H_2-H_2S$ gas mixture. The pre-sulfidation treatment formed a thin Cr-Al alloy layer as well as 7~10 micrometer $TiAl_3$ and $TiAl_2$ layer, due to selective sulfidation of Ti. Oxidation resistance of the pre-sulfidation processed TiAl 4Cr alloy was examined under isothermal and heat cycle conditions between room temperature and 1173K in air. Changes in $TiAl_3$ into $TiAl_2$ and then TiAl phases as well as their effect on oxidation behavior were investigated and compared with the oxidation behavior of the TiAl-4Cr alloy as TiAl and pre-sulfidation processed TiAl aHoys. After oxidation for up to 2.7Ms a protective $Al_2O_3$ scale was formed, and the pre-formed $TiAl_3$ changed into $TiAl_2$ and the $Al_2Cr$ phase changed into a CrAlTi phase between the $Al_2O_3$ scale and $TiAl_2$ layer. The pre-sulfidation processed TiAl-4Cr alloy had very good oxidation resistance for longer times, up to 2.7 Ms, in contrast to those observed for the pre-sulfidation processed TiAl alloy where localized oxidation occurred after 81 Oks and both the TiAl and TiAl-4Cr alloys themselves corroded rapidly from the initial stage of oxidation

Calcium phosphates such as HA (hydroxyapatite), β-TCP (tricalcium phosphate) and biphasic HA/β-TCP, were synthesized by wet chemical precipitation in aqueous solution combined with ball milling process. Nanosize powders of the calcium phosphates were synthesized using Ca(OH)2 and H3PO4. The effects of initial precursor Ca/P ratio (1.30, 1.50 and 1.67), ball milling process and post heat-treatment on the phase evolution behavior of the powders were investigated. The phase of resulting powder was controllable by adjusting the initial Ca/P ratio. HA was the only phase for as-prepared powders in both cases of Ca/P ratios of 1.50 and 1.67. The single HA phase without any noticeable second phase was obtained for the initial Ca/P ratio of 1.67 in the overall heat-treatment range. Pure β-TCP and biphasic calcium phosphate (HA/β-TCP) were synthesized from precursor solutions having Ca/P molar ratios of 1.30 and 1.50, respectively, after having been heat-treated above 700 ℃. The β-TCP phase has appeared on the pre-existing DCPD (dicalcium phosphate dihydrate) and/or HA phase. Dense ceramics having translucency were obtained at a considerably lower sintering temperature. The modified process offered a fast, convenient and economical route for the synthesis of calcium phosphates.

We propose an improved algorithm for detecting audio watermarks based on a spread spectrum in the spectral domain. Since the energy of a watermark is much smaller than that of the cover audio data, pre-processing to reduce the effect of the cover data is needed to reliably extract watermarks. We introduce a spectral envelope filter as a pre-process that enhances detecting performance by filtering out the intrinsic spectral character of cover data. The proposed watermarking structure can be easily included in the compression system and can extract watermarks from partially decompressed spectral data. Our experimental results demonstrate that with a bit error rate of around 10 dB against general attacks, the proposed detecting scheme works better than detectors without the spectral filter.

During the forming process of sheet metals, the drawbead in the die face controls a restraining force so that the sheet flows into the die cavity with tension. In order to investigate a drawgbead restraining force and a pre-strain just after drawbeads which are essential in the finite element analysis of form-ing processes, the friction test and drawing test are employed. The experiments performed with a cir-cular bead stepped bead double circular bead and circular-and-stepped bead in the various forming conditions and bead sizes show that the restraining force varies linearly with the blank holding force. bead radius blank thickness and friction but the pre-strain nonlinearly does with them.
