The purpose of this study is to classify debris flow hazard zones in urbanized areas using multivariate statistical analyses and to suggest customized management strategies to each areal type. Using field survey data set in Seoul, 49 sample debris hazard zones are selected. Clustering and discriminant analyses show that debris flow hazard zones are classified into two types. Surrounding land use and land slope are major factors influencing to the categorization. The results suggest that, by considering the characteristics of each areal type, more customized management strategies for debris flow hazard are necessary. Particularly, in addition to traditional structural measures, non-structural measures including land use and development control for downstream built-up areas should be emphasized in urbanized areas to mitigate human and property damages from debris flow hazard more fundamentally.

It needs to consider of turns during a path-finding on real road network. traveling on real road network, it generally takes less travel time in a more straight path than a zig-zaged path with same source and destination. In this paper, we propose $VTA^*$ algorithm that can reduce the cost of exploring despite increasing the number of turn in comparing with $TA^*$ algorithm. We have implement the proposed $VTA^*$, $TA^*$ which consider the number of turn and a traditional $A^*$ algorithm which dosen't consider the number of turn. The experimental result shows that the cost of exploring is reduced by 7.31 % comparing with $TA^*$ and the number of turn is reduced by 27.95% comparing with $A^*$ approximately.

Recently, there are interested in the automatic traffic flowing and accident detection using various low level information from video in the road. In this paper, the automatic traffic flowing and algorithm, and application of traffic accident detection using traffic management systems are studied. To achieve these purposes, the spatio-temporal relation models using topological and directional relations have been made, then a matching of the proposed models with the directional motion verbs proposed by Levin's verbs of inherently directed motion is applied. Finally, the synonym and antonym are inserted by using WordNet. For the similarity measuring between proposed modeling and trajectory of moving object in the video, the objects are extracted, and then compared with the trajectories of moving objects by the proposed modeling. Because of the different features with each proposed modeling, the rules that have been generated will be applied to the similarity measurement by TSR (Tangent Space Representation). Through this research, we can extend our results to the automatic accident detection of vehicle using CCTV.

The production period of Daedongyeojijeondo is estimated from 1861 to 1866 in consideration of place names. Daedongyeojijeondo is elaborated enough that there are the latest data in, especially is better than Haejwajeondo that is a representative map in the 19th century in marking distance. Daedongyeojido is an official map for national defense and administration, on the other hand Daedongyeojijeondo is a popular map in which social and economical contents are included. The recognition of mountains and rivers based on organic view of the land is also represented in Daedongyeojijeondo, and the principle of the whole of mountains and rivers is well reflected. It is far better than modem maps in the expression of road system and distances, tidal area in rivers.

Due to the rapid economic development, traffic congestion has become a dire concern in Beijing, China. Levying a congestion toll is seen as the most effective solution to the problem. Building a congestion pricing model is a crucial step in implementing a workable toll scheme. Unlike previous attempts, this study not only covers the theoretical discussion but also considers three practical issues: the speed-density relationship, the value of travel time savings, and the determination of optimal traffic volume. We estimate the speed-density relationship by regression models and the value of travel time saved through survey results. We further suggest a way through which the government could identify the optimal traffic flow by a series of trial-and-errors, without the knowledge of exact road demand structure. Finally, a practical tolling scheme is proposed for Beijing's second ring road along with some policy recommendations.

This paper implemented quadcopter-type drone system and proposed the heuristic method for obtaining the optimum gain coefficients in order to minimize the settling time. Control system for quadcopter posture stabilization reads the posture data from accelerator and gyro sensor, revises the original posture data using Mahony filter, and drives 4 DC motors using PID controller. The first step of the proposed method is to obtain the gain coefficients using the Ziegler-Nichols method, and then determine the optimum gain coefficients using the heuristic method at the next 3 steps. The experimental result shows that the maximum overshoot decreases from 44.3 to 29.8 degrees and the settling time decreases from 2.6 to 1.7 seconds compared to the Ziegler-Nichols method. Therefore, we proved that the proposed method works well in quadcopter flight system with high motor noise while reducing trial and error to obtain the optimal PID gain coefficients.

Longitudinal data of Korean child academic achievement have been used to find the significant exploratory variables under the assumption of independent repeated measured data. Using the exploratory variables in previous research works, we analyze the linear mixed model incorporating the fixed and random effects for child academic achievement to detect the significant exploratory variables. Korea welfare panel study data observed three times between 2006 and 2012 by additional survey for children. The child academic achievement is evaluated by the sum of academic achievements of Korean, English and Mathematics. We also investigate the multicollinearity and the missing mechanism and select some popular correlation matrices to analyze the linear mixed model.

This paper demonstrates the in-vehicle dilemma zone warning system (DZWS) project developed as a part of the Driver Advisory and Collision Warning System in Automated Vehicle and Highway System (AVHS). The DZWS project, one of the Korea national ITS projects in 2000 develops the in-vehicle warning device to support drivers' decision making on whether to stop or to proceed to clear the intersection prior to the onset of yellow signal for avoiding the high risk of collision at signalized intersections through the dedicated short range communication (DSRC). This paper explores the design of optimal communication systems between roadway and vehicles, the operational and functional concepts of dilemma zone warning system based on appropriate approach speeds, and the system integration for field test at two sites of signalized intersections. Findings from the system integration indicated that the system would be implemented in eliminating the dilemma zone relative to approach speeds and in reducing red light violations and intersection collisions through the in-vehicle warning device at signalized intersection.

This paper presents three methods of generating the transportation network data out of the topological geographic database in the hope that the conversion of the geographic database file containing the topology to the conventional node-link type trans¬portation network file may facilitate the integration between transportation planning mod¬els and GIS by alleviating the inherent problems of both computing environments. One way of the proposed conversion method is to use the conversion software that allows the bi-directional conversion between the UTPS (Urban Transportation Planning System) type transportation planning model and GIS. The other two methods of data structure conversion approach directly transform the GIS's user-level topology into the transportation network data topology, and have been introduced with codes programmed with FORTRAN and AML (Arc Macro Language) of ARC/INFO. If used successfully, any approach would not only improve the efficiency of transportation planning process and the associated decision-making activities in it, but enhance the productivity of trans¬portation planning agencies.

Recently, interest in location-based service (LBS) which utilizes a DBMS in mobile system environment has been increasing, and it is expected to overcome the existing file-based system's limitation in advanced in-vehicle system by utilizing DBMS's advantages such as efficient storage, transaction management, modelling and spatial queries etc. In particular, the road network data corresponds to the most essential domain in a route planning system, which needs efficient management and maintenance. Accordingly, this study aims to develop an efficient graph-based geodata model for topological network data and to support dynamic path computation algorithm based on heuristic approach in mobile LBS system. To achieve this goal, we design a data model for supporting the hierarchy of network, and implement a path planning system to evaluate its performance in mobile LBS system. Last but not least, we find out that the designed path computation algorithm with hierarchical graph model reduced the number of nodes used for finding and improved the efficiency of memory.
