The purpose of this paper is to generate a pitch contour which is affected by tile phonetic environment and the number of syllables in each Korean isolated word using a neural network. To do this, we analyzed a set of 513 Korean isolated words, consisting of 1-4 syllables and extracted the pitch contour and the duration of each phoneme in all the words. The total number of phonemes we analyzed is about 3800. After that we approximated the pitch contour with a 1st order polynominal by a regression analysis. We could get the slope, the initial pitch and the duration of each phoneme. We used these 3 parameters as the target pattern of the neural network and let the neural network learn the rule of the variation of the pitch and duration, which was affected by the phonetic environment of each phoneme. We used 7 consecutive phoneme strings as an input pattern for a neural network to make the network learn the effect of phonetic environment around the center phoneme. In the learning phase, we used 3545 items(463 words) as target patterns which contained the phonetic environment of front and rear 3 phonemes and the neural network showed the correctness rate of 98.43%, 98.59%, 97.7% in the estimation of the duration, the slope, the initial pitch. In the recall phase, we tested the performance of tile neural network with 251 items(50 words) which weren't need as learning data and we could get the good correctness rate of 97.34%, 95.45%, 96.3% in the generation of the duration, the slope, and the initial pitch of each phoneme.

High dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy treatment planning usually involves optimization methods to deliver uniform dose to the target volume and minimize dose to the healthy tissues. Four optimizations were used to evaluate the high-risk clinical target volume (HRCTV) coverage and organ at risk (OAR). Dose-volume histogram (DVH) and dosimetric parameters were analyzed and evaluated. Better coverage was achieved with PGO (mean CI = 0.95), but there were no significant mean CI differences than GrO (p = 0.03322). Mean EQD₂ doses to HRCTV (D₉₀) were also superior for PGO with no significant mean EQD₂ doses than GrO (p = 0.9410). The mean EQD₂ doses to bladder, rectum, and sigmoid were significantly higher for NO plan than PO, GrO, and PGO. PO significantly reduced the mean EQD₂ doses to bladder, rectum, and sigmoid but compromising the conformity index to HRCTV. PGO was superior in conformity index (CI) and mean EQD₂ doses to HRCTV compared with the GrO plan but not statistically significant. The mean EQD₂ doses to the rectum by PGO plan slightly exceeded the limit from ABS recommendation (mean EQD₂ dose = 78.08 Gy EQD₂). However, PGO can shorten the treatment planning process without compromising the CI and keeping the OARs dose below the tolerance limit.

This study was carried out to test feasibility of a granule fertilizer applicator for rapeseed seeding in paddy fields. The metering plate of a conventional applicator was modified for rapeseed seeding. The modified plate had new three seeding openings with total area of $342mm^2$. Average target discharging rates ranged from 6.3 to 21.0 g/s and correlated with opening areas. Application patterns of the rapeseed seeding showed M-shape. The coefficients of variation of the application showed 70.5% at 0.99 m/s of forwarding speed and 14.3 g/s of a discharge rate, and 77.7% at 1.72 m/s of a forwarding speed and 8.23 g/s of a discharge rate. The coefficients of variation in the direction of transverse of the tractor ranged from 7.3 to 47.7%. In rapeseed seeding tests using the applicator, seed damages rates were less than 15% due to the agitator, the seed hopper and the seeding plate break. Therefore, improvements of the applicator blow heads and seeding equipments were required in order to apply rapeseed efficiently.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the performance of swirl combustion chamber diesel engine by changing the jet passage area, the depth and shape of the piston top cavity (main chamber). The performance of diesel engine with newly changed swirl combustion chamber was tested through the experimental conditions as engine speed, load and injection timing etc. The test results were compared and analyzed. And another purpose of this research is to make a new diesel engine that is satisfied fuel consumption and regulation value of exhaust gas. 1. The rate of fuel consumption was affected significantly by the jet passage area at the high speed and load than low speed and low load. The influence of jet passage large area was proven to decrease the rate of fuel consumption. 2. Smoke was affected significantly by the depth of the piston top cavity, but exhaust temperature and the rate of fuel consumption wasn't affected. The rate of fuel consumption was affected by changing injection timing. 3. The rate of fuel consumption, exhaust temperature and Smoke were affected significantly by the shape of the piston top cavity from rectangular to trapezoid. That is we have all high value. The exhaust smoke density and exhaust gas temperature depended sensitively on variation of the injection timing rather than the shape of the combustion chamber within the experimental conditions. 4. We made a new diesel engine that is satisfied design target values(sfc=190 g/hr, NOx + THC=6.0 g/KWh, PM=0.3 KWh), the rate of fuel consumption and emission standard etc., through changing injection timing at the maximum torque point and rated power point. Although we have a little high NOx value.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) field is mainly studied to monitor and characterize large-scale physical environments to track various environmental or physical conditions, such as temperature, pressure, wind speed and humidity. WSN can be used in various applications such as wild surveillance, military target tracking and monitoring, dangerous environmental exploration and natural disaster relief. We design probabilistic mobile models that apply to mobile ad hoc network mobile environments. A probabilistic shift model proposed by dividing the number of moving nodes and the distance of travel into two categories to express node movement characteristics. The proposed model of movement through simulation was compared with the existing random movement model, ensuring that the width and variation rate of the first node node node node (FND) was stable regardless of the node movement rate. In addition, when the proposed mobile model is applied to the routing protocol, the superiority of network life can be verified from measured FND values. We overcame the limitations of the existing random movement model, showing excellent characteristics in terms of energy efficiency and stable in terms of changes in node movement.

An operating principle of PID module was implemented using the load, where the integer in a PID measuring derivate equation were valid in the ranges of 500-9000, 60-1000, and 000-9000, for P, I and D, respectively. A load operation program was designed to investigate the PID theory and its realization process. With it, it was examined the process that the current PV tracts the target SV, By investigating the time when the PV approaches the SV and the rate at which the EV is varied, it is revealed that 1) larger (or Smaller) Kp leads to faster (or slower) approaching of PV to SV, 2) smaller (or larger) Ti results in faster (or slower) approaching of PV to SV, 3) larger (or smaller)$T_d$ causes smaller (or Larger) rate variation in the EV. These observation were found to coincide with those of PID operating characteristics. Though this implementation, it is known for the widespread use of PID module that an improvement should be made in the error of temperature. This, meanwhile, implies that the computational time of conventional manipulation valve must be faster than 0.1 second. It is demanded that an improved PID module including the A/D and D/A module, in itself must be used in conjunction with PLC.

Indium Zinc Tin Oxide (IZTO) thin films for transparent thin film transistor (TTFT) were deposited on glass substrate at room temperature by facing targets sputtering (FTS). The FTS system was designed to array two targets facing each other and forms the high- density plasma between. Two different kinds of targets were installed on FTS system. One is ITO ($In_2O_3$ 90wt.%, $SnO_2$ 10wt.%), the other is IZO($In_2O_3$ 90wt%, ZnO 10wt%). The conductive and optical properties of IZTO thin film is determined depending on variation of DC power and working pressure. Therefore, IZTO thin films were prepared with different DC power and working pressure. As-deposited IZTO thin films were investigated by a UV/VIS spectrometer, an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), a Hall Effect measurement system. As a result, all IZTO thin films deposited on glass substrate showed over 80% of transmittance in visible range (400~800 nm) at $O_2$ gas flow rate. We could obtain IZTO thin films with the lowest resistivity $5.67\times10^{-4}$ [$\Omega{\cdot}cm$] at $O_2$ gas flow rate 0.4 [sccm).

Nickel oxide (NiO) thin films were deposited on Si(100) substrates at room temperature by RF magnetron sputtering from a NiO target. The effects of plasma gas and RF power on the crystallographic orientation and surface morphology of the NiO films were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were employed to characterize the deposited film. It was found that the type of plasma gases affected the crystallographic orientation, deposition rate, surface morphology, and crystallinity of NiO films. Highly crystalline NiO films with (100) orientation were obtained when it was deposited under Ar atmosphere. On the other hand, (l11)-oriented NiO films with poor crystallinity were deposited in $O_2$. Also, the increase in RF power resulted in not only higher deposition rate, larger grain size, and rougher surface but also higher crystallinity of NiO films.

본 논문에서는 TCP 흐름제어 기법을 전제로 하여, 가까운 미래에 발생할 가능성이 있는 인터넷 입구에서의 혼잡을 미리 예측함으로써 TCP 흐름제어의 효과를 배가시킬 수 있는 QR-AQM이라는 버퍼관리 기법을 제안한다. QR-AQM 버퍼관리기법은 라우터로 전송되어 오는 단위시간당 TCP 흐름량을 추정하여 이를 이용함으로써 RED기법과 같이 평균버퍼 수위에만 의존하는 조기혼잡제어기법에 비해 미래에 네트워크에 일어날 혼잡에 보다 민첩하게 대처 할 수 있다. 모의 실험을 통한 성능 검증결과 인터넷 입구에서 OR-AQM 기법은 Adaptive RED 기법과 비교하여 간단한 변수의 설정만으로 버퍼를 목적한 수준으로 유지함이 가능함으로, 다양한 응용프로그램의 요구에 맞추어 직관적이고 쉽게 최적의 버퍼수위를 설정할 수 있다. 또한 QR-AQM 기법은 시간에 따른 버퍼수위의 변화가 목적한 버퍼수위를 기준으로 작은 변동폭을 유지함으로써, 패킷들이 라우터의 버퍼를 지나면서 겪게되는 지연시간의 등락현상을 효과적으로 억제할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The LDC (Load Duration Curve) method can analyze river water quality changes according to flow rate and seasonal conditions. It is also possible to visually recognize whether the target water quality is exceeded or the size of the reduction load. For this reason, it is used for the optimal reduction of TPLCs and analysis of the cause of water pollution. At this time, the flow duration curve should be representative of the water body hydrologic curve, but if not, the uncertainty of the interpretation becomes big because the damaged flow condition is changed. The purpose of this study is to estimate the daily mean flow of the unit watershed using the HSPF model and to analyze the difference of the flow duration curves according to the cumulative daily mean flow rate using the NSE technique. The results show that it is desirable to construct the flow duration curve by using the daily average flow rate of at least 5 years although there is a difference by unit watershed. However, this is the result of the water bodies at the end of Han River basin watershed, so further study on various water bodies will be necessary in the future.
