Fake media, generated by methods such as deepfakes, have become indistinguishable from real media, but their detection has not improved at the same pace. Furthermore, the absence of interpretability on deepfake detection models makes their reliability questionable. In this paper, we present a human perception level of interpretability for deepfake audio detection. Based on their characteristics, we implement several explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) methods used for image classification

An explicit generalization of the classical Lagrange's equations (for discrete coordinate dynamical systems) to cover a large family of multibody hybrid discrete/distributed parameter systems is presented. The coupled system of ordinary and partial differential equations follows directly from spatial and time differentiation of various Lagrangian functional, whereas the boundary conditions are directly established from another explicit set of symbolic variational equations. Five illustrative exa

Conservation practices are effective ways to mitigate non-point source pollutions, especially when implemented on critical source areas (CSAs) known as the areas contributing disproportionately high pollution loads. Although hydrologic models are promising tools to identify CSAs within agricultural landscapes, their application is limited to areas where data and modeling expertise are available. The Soil Vulnerability Index (SVI) developed by the USDA-Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS)

This paper presents a stochastic estimation method and a signal processing based method for estimating disturbance torques without using any force sensors. The first method will address a robustness against measurement noises by estimating noise covariance. The second method will show several practical merits. By containing system models inside of the estimator, the total disturbance torque injected into the plant is estimated. The experimental results conducted using a master-slave manipulator

In this study, a dynamic model of a vehicle with eight or more speed automatic transmission (A/T) has been developed for the analysis of shift quality and dynamic behavior of the vehicle during shift events. Subsystem models for engine, torque converter, automatic transmission, drivetrain, transmission control unit (TCU), and vehicle are developed and integrated with signal information interface. The subsystems included in the model were carefully selected to improve the accuracy of the model by

본 연구에서는 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) 기후변화 시나리오 A2와 B1에 따른 산림분포 취약성을 평가하였다. 산림분포 취약성은 한국형 산림 생태계 분포 모델 Thermal Analogy Groups(TAG) 의 산림분포예측 방법과 Hydrology Thermal Analogy Groups(HyTAG)에서 정의한 식생유형을 이용하여 기후 변화에 따른 잠재 식물상(Plant Functional Type: PFT)의 분포 변화를 기후변화 민감성과 적응성으로 나누어 평가되었다. 그 결과, 산림분포가 취약한 지역의 면적은 A2 시나리오에서 전체 국토 면적의 30.78%, B1에서는 2.81%로 나타났다. 행정구역별 취약성 평가 결과는 부산이 A2 시나리오에서 가장 취약하고 대구가 B1 시나리오에서 가장 큰 취약성을 나타냈다. 미래 발전 방향에 따라서 상이하게 구축된 시나리오 별 산림 분포 취약성 결과는 앞으로 산림 분야 적응대책수립에

The H∞ and sliding mode observers are important in integer-order dynamic systems. However, these observers are not well explored in the field of fractional-order dynamic systems. In this paper, the H∞ filter and the fractional-order sliding mode unknown input observer are developed to estimate state of the linear time-invariant fractional-order dynamic systems with consideration of proper initial memory effect. As the first result, the fractional-order H∞ filter is introduced, and it is shown th

The Agricultural Policy/Environmental eXtender (APEX) model has been widely used to assess changes in agrochemical loadings in response to conservation and management led by US Department of Agriculture (USDA). However, the existing APEX model is limited in quantification of wetland water quality functions. This study improved the current model capacity to represent wetland water quality functions by addition of a new biogeochemical module into the APEX model. The performance of an enhanced APEX

Inertia properties of rigid body such as ground, aerial, and space vehicles may be changed by several occasions, and this variation of the properties influences the control accuracy of the rigid body. For this reason, accurate inertia properties need to be obtained for precise control. An estimation process is required for both noisy gyro measurements and the time derivative of the gyro measurements. In this paper, an estimation method is proposed for having reliable estimates of inertia propert

Trajectory tracking is a crucial aspect of controlling nonlinear systems and is an important area of research. Researchers have proposed several strategies to perform this task in the presence of perturbations, which are the sum of a system’s uncertainty, modeling errors, and external disturbances. Nonlinear systems, such as robot manipulators, have complex dynamics, and deriving their exact mathematical models is a tedious task. Therefore, the objective of this research is to design a model-fre
