Background : The statistical analysis is an essential procedure ensuring that the results of researches are based on evidences rather than opinion. The purpose of this study is to evaluate which statistical techniques are used and whether these statistical methods are used appropriately or not in the journal of Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases. Materials and Methods : We reviewed 185 articles reported in the journal of Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases in 1999. We evaluated the validity of used statistical methods based upon the checklist that was developed on the basis of the guideline for statistical reporting in articles for medical journals by International Committee of Medical Journal Editors. Results : Among 185 articles, original articles and case reports were 110 (59.5%) and 61 (33.0%) respectively. In 112 articles excluding case reports and reviews, statistical techniques were used in 107 articles (95.5%). In 94 articles (83.9%) descriptive and inferential methods were used, while in 13 (11.6%) articles only descriptive methods were used. With the types of inferential statistical techniques, comparison of means was most commonly used (64/94, 68.1%), followed by contingency table (43/94, 45.7%) and correlation or regression (18/94, 19.1%). Among the articles in which descriptive methods were used, 83.2% (89/107) showed inappropriate central tendency and dispersion. In the articles in which inferential methods were used, improper methods were applied in 88.8% (79/89) and the most frequent misuse of statistical methods was inappropriate use of parametric methods (35/89, 39.3%). Only 14 articles (13.1%) were satisfactory in utilization of statistical methodology. Conclusion : Most of the statistical errors found in the journal were misuses of statistical methods related to basic statistics. This study suggests that researchers should be more careful when they describe and apply statistical methods and more extensive statistical refereeing system would be needed.

Purpose Westgard multi-rules application based on test quality improvement and commercialized international standard has been widely used in quality control. However, it is difficult to applicate the Westgard multi-rules in nuclear medicine in vitro tests due to the larger sample sizes and the simultaneous measurement of quality control material and patient sample. This study investigated the usefulness of Westgard multi-rules application in nuclear medicine in vitro tests. Materials and Methods A total of 282 systematic error multi-rules (22s, 101s) recorded in the samsung medical center computer system from January 2013 to June 2016 along with 117 cases of corrective measure record was analyzed. The Quality control implementation is recorded in Hospital information system were divided into 4 high-level areas including quality control material error, experimental procedural error, Kit lot number management error, and others. To prevent quality control material error, the existing method that each staff used their own method was changed. The staff who in charge of managing the quality control material was designated and daily consumption amount of every test was strictly controlled by one person. To prevent other errors, every test step was standardized so that the entire test procedures are identically implemented. Results The total quality control implementation was 117 cases; As a result, 62 quality control material errors were 62 cases, experimental process errors were 24 cases, Kit lot number control errors were 18 cases, and other errors were 13 cases. The quality control material error was corrected and could be used fresh materials within 2 days after thawing. The cases of systemic error were decreased to causes as quality control material error. The quality control materials were reduced above 10 vials to a monthly average. In addition, these errors of experimental processing and Kit lot number were improved by test standardization. Consequently, the cases of 101s and 22s in systematic error rules decreased at least 2 cases to a monthly average. Conclusion To confirm of systematic error through multi-rules application quickly, it is necessary to base on management of the QC material, target values and standard deviation. Moreover, in the event of a systematic error, it was found important to record measures based on test cause analysis. The experiment results are expected to contribute to internal quality control improvement and prompt and accurate result reporting through error recording and causal analysis based on Westgard multi-rules analysis.

In this paper, performance of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system in an impulsive noise environment is analyzed. Here, it is verified that performance of the OFDM system with window nonlinearity, which is one of the impulsive noise mitigation algorithms, is dependent on the over-sampling rate and the size of window. With respect to the variation of those parameters, we also provide an appropriate region of threshold values that control amplitudes of the sampled waveform of received signals. As a result, a new combination of parameters which improves error performance of OFDM system in an impulsive noise environment as compared to the previously reported parameters is presented.

There are many mistakes when we estimate probability of an event, for example, we often omit some likelihoods (of an event), sometimes give too large or too small possibility for a particular case, cannot relate current cases with which were concerned before, apply at another cases as soon as discuss about it insufficiently, etc. If we go into a history of probability and statistics, we shall ascertain that many scientists and mathmaticians made essentially same mistakes with us. In the paper, we will consider the theorization of probability and statistics as a process of modification of mistakes which were made during one's estimating possibility of an event. On that point of view, we shall look at historical background of probability and statistics.

띄어쓰기와 문장 경계 인식은 그 성능에 따라 자연어 분석 단계에서 오류를 크게 전파하기 때문에 굉장히 중요한 문제로 인식되고 있지만 각각 서로 다른 자질을 사용하는 문제 때문에 각각 다른 모델을 사용해 순차적으로 해결하였다. 그러나 띄어쓰기와 문장 경계 인식은 완전히 다른 문제라고는 볼 수 없으며 두 모델의 순차적 수행은 앞선 모델의 오류가 다음 모델에 전파될 뿐만 아니라 시간 복잡도가 높아진다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 띄어쓰기와 문장 경계 인식을 하나의 문제로 보고 한 번에 처리하는 다중 클래스 분류 시스템을 통해 시간 복잡도 문제를 해결하고 다중 손실 선형 결합을 사용하여 띄어쓰기와 문장 경계 인식이 서로 다른 자질을 사용하는 문제를 해결했다. 최종 모델은 띄어쓰기와 문장 경계 인식 기본 모델보다 각각 3.98%p, 0.34%p 증가한 성능을 보였다. 시간 복잡도 면에서도 단일 모델의 순차적 수행 시간보다 38.7% 감소한 수행 시간을 보였다.

최대 엔트로피 모델(maximum entropy model)은 여러 가지 자연언어 문제를 학습하는데 성공적으로 적용되어 왔지만, 두 가지의 주요한 문제점을 가지고 있다. 그 첫번째 문제는 해당 언어에 대한 많은 사전 지식(prior knowledge)이 필요하다는 것이고, 두번째 문제는 계산량이 너무 많다는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 텍스트 단위화(text chunking)에 최대 엔트로피 모델을 적용하는 데 나타나는 이 문제점들을 해소하기 위해 새로운 방법을 제시한다. 사전 지식으로, 간단한 언어 모델로부터 쉽게 생성된 결정트리(decision tree)에서 자동적으로 만들어진 규칙을 사용한다. 따라서, 제시된 방법에서의 최대 엔트로피 모델은 결정트리를 보강하는 방법으로 간주될 수 있다. 계산론적 복잡도를 줄이기 위해서, 최대 엔트로피 모델을 학습할 때 일종의 능동 학습(active learning) 방법을 사용한다. 전체 학습 데이터가 아닌 일부분만을 사용함으로써 계산 비용은 크게 줄어 들 수 있다. 실험 결과, 제시된 방법으로 결정트리의 오류의 수가 반으로 줄었다. 대부분의 자연언어 데이터가 매우 불균형을 이루므로, 학습된 모델을 부스팅(boosting)으로 강화할 수 있다. 부스팅을 한 후 제시된 방법은 전문가에 의해 선택된 자질로 학습된 최대 엔트로피 모델보다 졸은 성능을 보이며 지금까지 보고된 기계 학습 알고리즘 중 가장 성능이 좋은 방법과 비슷한 성능을 보인다 텍스트 단위화가 일반적으로 전체 구문분석의 전 단계이고 이 단계에서의 오류가 다음 단계에서 복구될 수 없으므로 이 성능은 텍스트 단위화에서 매우 의미가 길다.

Telemetry, satellite event and error information are used to check the satellite status in ground station. Different from telemetry which only informs the parameter value, event and error gives explicit information of a certain operation or status. Event also contains ground action information because every command execution is logged as event. Currently, those information is gathered and applied only for monitoring of the satellite. However, the load of the operation is getting grown because of the excessively increased information of the satellite with the number of satellite increasement. Also, the process of reporting problem to developer (or an expert) induce time delay for satellites fault management. In this paper, we propose a satellite operation assistant system which collects event sequence and stores in different group by its feature, and then recommends or executes an appropriate action for the identified abnormal state. This system is applicable to on board system for resolving LEO-satellite autonomous fault situation since is has limited contact time.

세계화의 빠른 진행과 더불어 외국에 대한 정확한 인식은 매우 중요한 문제로 등장하였다. 아직도 사실적 오류와 더불어 국제관계에서의 위치 때문에 많은 오류가 남아 있는 점도 사실이다. 그 가운데 미국의 위성영상서비스 가운데 가장 대표적인 구글사의 검색서비스와 미국지리정보국의 지명데이터베이스에 관한 내용을 분석함으로서 문제의 뿌리가 어디인지를 밝히고자 하였다. 이미 구글에 관련된 논문은 Science Direct 검색결과 69개가 검색되고 있을 만큼 전세계적 문화적 영향력을 가지고 있다. 본고에서는 전 세계의 지명을 영어로 서비스하고 있는 구글사와 미국의 지명 DB내에 있는 오류사례를 찾아내고, 그 유형을 분석하고, 특히 일제의 강점을 당했던 한국과 대만사례를 비교하는 데 있다. 대만 역시 1945년 제2차 세계대전의 종전으로 인해 일본의 영향에서 벗어나게 되었다. 따라서 지명에도 일본의 영향이 크게 남아 있을 것으로 보고 앞서 나온 유형대로 몇 개의 분석을 실시하였다. 그 중 대표적인 것을 들면, 경상남도 남해군 일원의 위성영상을 보면 최소한 3개의 일본식 지명이 나타난다. 우선 해양지명으로 미조만은 Mijo-wan으로 앵강만은 Oko-wan으로 표시되어 있고, 천황산은 Tenno San이라는 지명으로 나타나고 있다. 제주도의 한라산을 지칭하는 표준어는 Halla-san으로 등재되어 있으나 이명으로 소개되어 있는 것이 무려 11개나 등록되어 있는 것으로 파악되었다. Halla-san에 대한 미국의 NGA(National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency)의 지명정보 데이터베이스에서 검색한 결과는 아래와 같다. 앞의 간라산 또는 간다산 등은 일본식 표기임이 확실하며 여기에 오크랜드산(Auckland, Mount)이라고 또한 표기되어 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 대만의 경우 총 1,280개의 산악명과 산맥명이 등재되어 있으니 일본어 표기는 하나도 없으며, 영어로 Central Mountains와 Seaboard Mountains두개만 영문표기 지명이 등재되어 있을 뿐이며, 그 가운데 12개는 한자로 표기되어 있다. 국내의 지명이 모두 영문 알파벳으로 표기된 것과는 달리 대만의 경우 한자지명이 그대로 데이터베이스에 등재되어 있다. 하천의 경우를 분석해보면 1485개의 지명이 등록되어 있으며 이 가운데 24개는 한자지명으로 표기되어 있다. 유형별 분석을 통한 연구결과가 올바른 지명 찾기에 기여하고, 독도와 백두산에 국한된 지명논쟁의 근간을 공고히 하는데 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

Despite the growing need for customized operating system kernels for embedded devices, kernel development continues to suffer from insufficient reliability and high testing cost for several reasons such as the high complexity of the kernel code. To alleviate these difficulties, this study proposes the MOdel-based KERnel Testing (MOKERT) framework for detection of concurrency bugs in the kernel. MOKERT translates a given C program into a corresponding Promela model, and then tries to find a counter example with regard to a given requirement property, If found, MOKERT executes that counter example on the real kernel code to check whether the counter example is a false alarm or not, The MOKERT framework was applied to the Linux proc file system and confirmed that the bug reported in a ChangeLog actually caused a data race problem, In addition, a new data race bug in the Linux proc file system was found, which causes kernel panic.

Since emergency response training for maritime safety and safety education of maritime education institutions are conducted based on the set scenarios and education contents, there are limitations in the reduction of human error and response to various situations. Although there is a need for improvement, there is no way to improve response capabilities by assessing existing education training and securing diversity in situations. This study proposes a theoretical procedure analyzer method to model the diversity of situations for the improvement of emergency response training. This paper defines the human and system theoretical procedure analysis model (HSTPA) based on the organic relationship of the source and system. The limitations of the existing training were derived by analyzing the errors that each component could produce and applying them to the fire response training scenarios requiring vertical reporting systems and responses. The segmentation and inspection of training scenario considerations applying the proposed HSTPA model is believed to help create diverse and realistic scenarios in emergency response training and education, and improve the situation judgment understanding and response capabilities of the subjects.
