The RSS- assisted cross-correlation (RACC) method can reduce noise and eliminate multipath interference to a certain extent, but too environmentally sensitive. Therefore, in this paper, an effective way of using the deep neural network is proposed to address this problem. Accordingly, the performance of the AutoEncoder in signal noise reduction and multipath interference elimination are discussed. To achieve better results, four AutoEncoder models are put forward, fully connection (FC), convolution plus fully connected (C-FC), convolution plus pooling (C-P), inception (ICP), and the performance of these four models are compared when processing signals with different signal to noise ratio (SNR) and multipath interference. The mean square error (MSE) and the time difference of arrival (TDoA) are the standards for evaluating the effect of signal noise reduction and multipath interference removal. Besides simulated data, we also conducted model performance comparisons in terms of ground truth signal. Experimental results show that fully connected layer is essential to automatic signal coding and the model performs better with the appropriate addition of convolution layer when faced with noise and multipath environments. Notably, compared with RACC method, the TDoA of two resultant signals obtained from the model is more accurate, verified by IEEE 802. 11b WLAN.","PeriodicalId":183887,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Electron Devices and Solid-State Circuits (EDSSC)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133538861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

That is widely used at high-voltage and high-power applications such as renewable energy grid-connected systems. The method of dividing a single air gap into several air gaps can effectively reduce the additional loss caused by the air gap. However, cutting the air gap in amorphous or nanocrystalline strips commonly used at large-capacity high-frequency applications will break the interlayer insulation and increase the eddy current loss at the core incision. Hence, the number of air gaps should be as few as possible. This paper introduces that three quasi-distributed air gaps can be arranged at three regions of the magnetic core according to the certain rule to effectively decrease winding loss. Finite element analyses (FEA) will be utilized to validate that the proposed method is better than that of the six quasi-distributed air gaps.","PeriodicalId":183887,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Electron Devices and Solid-State Circuits (EDSSC)","volume":"175 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115951697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is capable of capturing the context, semantic and syntactic similarity of words in a document. Word2vec is a well-known technique to learn word embeddings of fixed dimensionality by using shallow neural networks, which can also be used to transform the audio segment of each words into a vector. In this paper, a deep neural network based on speech to vector model is proposed to learn the vector directly from the speech segment, in which the vector can represent some semantic information. Unlike the previous methods, such as speech2vec [1], our proposed model adopts a high-performance parser based on the residual attention mechanism, which uses multi-layer bi-directional long short-term memory (LSTM) network to learn representations of the audio segment. Finally, our proposed speech to vector model is analyzed and evaluated on 12 public datasets, which are widely-used in word similarity and word analogy benchmarks.","PeriodicalId":183887,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Electron Devices and Solid-State Circuits (EDSSC)","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115588906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
