In this paper, we propose the method of adjusting thresholds using impurity indices in classification analysis on imbalanced data. Suppose the minority category is Positive and the majority category is Negative for the imbalanced binomial data. When categories are determined based on the commonly used 0.5 basis, the specificity tends to be high in unbalanced data while the sensitivity is relatively low. Increasing sensitivity is important when proper classification of objects in minority categories is relatively important. We explore how to increase sensitivity through adjusting thresholds. Existing studies have adjusted thresholds based on measures such as G-Mean and F1-score, but in this paper, we propose a method to select optimal thresholds using the chi-square statistic of CHAID, the Gini index of CART, and the entropy of C4.5. We also introduce how to get a possible unique value when multiple optimal thresholds are obtained. Empirical analysis shows what improvements have been made compared to the results based on 0.5 through classification performance metrics.

산업구조변화의 일반적인 추세는 나라마다 비슷한 모습을 보인다. 그러나 국가별, 산업별로 관찰해 보면 구조변화의 방향과 경로가 상당히 다양할 뿐 아니라 구조조정의 성과도 다르게 나타나고 있다. 본고(本稿)에서는 한국의 산업구조변화가 산업특성별로 어떻게 다른 모습을 보이고 있으며, 선진국들과 비교할 때 어떤 다른 특징이 관찰되는지를 검토함으로써 구조조정의 내용과 성과를 평가하고 정책적 시사점을 도출하고자 한다. 구조조정의 성과에 대한 평가의 근간은 "경제발전의 원동력은 혁신능력에 있다"는 "슘페터"의 명제에 두고 있다. 혁신집약적 산업활동의 비중변화를 기준으로 산업구조조정의 성과를 분석함에 있어 다음의 두가지 문제에 봉착하게 된다. 첫째, 혁신집약적 산업활동을 측정하기 위해 어떤 지표를 사용할 것인가, 둘째 혁신집약적 산업활동을 어떤 수준으로 분류할 것인가이다. 본고(本稿)에서는 산업별 연구개발 집약도를 혁신집약적 산업활동의 대용변수로 사용하여 혁신집약도의 정도에 따라 산업을 첨단기술산업, 중간기술산업, 재래기술산업의 세가지로 나눈 다음 수출구조변화, 생산 고용 부가가치 구조변화, 생산성 변화를 분석하였다. 제조업 수출에서 차지하는 첨단기술산업의 비중을 기준으로 한다면 구조고도화는 매우 빠르게 진전되었다. 첨단기술산업은 수출비중도 높지만 수입침투율도 가장 높다. 특히 수출주도의 고성장이 이루어졌던 1986~88년, 1994~95년 기간에 수출구조의 고도화도 급격히 이루어졌다는 사실은 해외경쟁에 노출되어 있는 수출부문이 제조업 구조고도화를 선도하고 있음을 시사하고 있다. 이에 비해 국내수요를 포함한 한국 제조업 전체의 생산, 고용, 부가가치 구조를 분석해 보면 수출부문에 비해 구조조정 성과가 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 평가된다.

This research aims at investigating the measures of agreement between BMI classification standard and that of 9-point contour drawing rating scale(CDRS), verifying their usefulness for the application to the filed, examining university students' substantial understanding of their bodies, and offering correct information regarding the distorted recognition of their bodies. In order to examine the measures of agreement between the classification standard of BMI and that of CDRS, and the women university students' recognition of their body images depending on BMI, Cross tabulation was carried out, and ${\chi}^2$, Spearman rank correlation coefficient and kappa statistics were calculated. As the analysis results, the classification standards of CDRS and BMI judged by general female college students showed statistically the correlation was high with ${\rho}=.719$(p<.001) and an average level of confirmity with ${\kappa}=.506$(p<.001). Based on these results, regarding body shape, sizes and shapes according to racial characteristics need to be controlled later.

The maximum likelihood estimation is not robust against outliers in the logistic regression. Thus we propose an algorithm for the robust estimation, which identifies the bad leverage points and vertical outliers by the V-mask type criterion, and then strives to dampen the effect of outliers. Our main finding is that, by an appropriate selection of weights and factors, we could obtain the logistic estimates with high breakdown point. The proposed algorithm is evaluated by means of the correct classification rate on the basis of real-life and artificial data sets. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm is superior to the maximum likelihood estimation in terms of the classification.

Purpose : The main Purpose of this study is to develop new payment rates for services of Radiation Oncology, considering costs of treating patients. Material and Methods : A survey of forty hospitals has been conducted in order to analyze the costs of treating patients. Before conducting the survey, we evaluated and reclassified the individual service items currently using as Payments units on the fee-for-service reimbursement system. This study embodies the analysis of replies received from the twenty four hospitals. The survey contains informations about the hospitals' costs of 1995 for the reclassified service items on Radiation Oncology. After we adjust the hospital costs by the operating rate of medical equipment, we compare the adjusted costs with the current Payment rates of individual services. Results : The current payment rates were 5.05-6.58 times lower than the adjusted costs in treatment planning services, 2.22 times lower in block making service, 1.57-2.86 times lower in external beam irradiation services, 3.82-5.01 times lower in intracavitary and interstitial irradiation and 1.12-2.55 times lower in total body irradiation. Conclusion : We could conclude that the current payment system on Radiation Oncology does not only reflect the costs of treating patients appropriately but also classify the service items correctly. For an example, when the appropriate costs and classification are applied to TBI, the payment rates of TBI should be increased five times more than current level.

수문학적 토양유형은 복잡하게 세분되어 있는 토양의 종류를 수문학적인 목적에 따라 단순화하기 위해 만든 것으로 미농무성 토양보전국에서 고안한 개념이다. 우리나라 토양을 이 방법으로 구분하고자 하는 몇번의 시도가 있으며 그 중 대표적인 것이 정 등(1995)이 분류한 수문학적 토양군이다. 이는 토양의 침투 투수특성에 대한 실측자료가 부족한 우리나라의 실정을 감안하여 토성속(textural family), 배수등급(drainage class), 불투수층(impermeable layer), 투수성(permeability)의 네가지 토양특성을 분류특성으로 하여 각각에 1-4점 범위로 점수를 매긴 후 합산한 점수를 기준으로 수문학적 토양유형을 분류하는 것이다. 최근에는 토양의 한계침투속도에 따라 수문학적 토양유형을 분류하고자 하는 시도가 있으며 본 논문에서는 새로운 방법으로 분류할 때 기존의 방법과 어떠한 차이가 있는지 비교하고자 하였다. 정 등(1995)의 분류방법은 개념상 몇가지 문제점을 안고 있다. 먼저 토양의 수리특성은 같은 토성속이라 하여도 토양생성 과정과 토지이용 방법에 따라 그 차이가 매우 큼에도 불구하고 이에 대해 고려하지 못하였으며 다음으로 지표유거가 많아 배수가 양호한 토양의 강우 유출을 과소평가한다. 또한 얕은 토심에 존재하는 불투수층이 존재하는 경우 토양의 수리특성에 관계없이 적은 양의 강우에도 유출이 발생하므로 별도의 제한인자로 간주하여야 한다. 토양의 한계 침투속도를 이용한 분류방법은 이러한 문제점을 상당 부분 개선할 수 있다. 토양의 한계침투속도를 산정하기 위해 현장에서 지표 한계침투속도와 투수속도를 측정하였으며 이 자료를 확장하여 해석하기 위해 입자특성을 이용한 Pedo Transfer Function을 개발하였다. 토심 50 cm 포화시 토양 투수성을 한계 침투속도로 가정하였으며 50 cm 이내에 암반층과 지하수위가 존재할 경우 투수성에 관계없이 D유형으로 분류하였다. 새로운 방법으로 분류한 결과 기존의 분류와 몇가지 차이점이 발견되었다. 가장 큰 차이는 대부분의 논토양이 느린 한계침투속도의 영향으로 D유형에 속한 것이다. 산림토양과 밭토양은 기존 방법과 마찬가지로 A, B유형이 많았으며 암반층을 고려하기 전에는 기존 분류에 비해 강우 유출 가능성이 적은 쪽으로 평가되었다. 그러나 암반층이 존재하는 토양을 고려한 결과 A 또는 B 유형에 속하던 상당수의 산림토양이 새로운 분류에서 D유형으로 분류되었다. 지표 유거가 많아 배수등급이 매우양호로 분류되던 토양은 정 등(1995)의 분류와 비교하여 대부분 강우 유출 가능성이 큰 쪽으로 조정되었다. 새로운 수문학적 토양유형을 이용할 경우 낮은 토심에서 암반층이 발견되는 산림토양이 분포한 유역이나 산림, 밭 등에 식질 토양이 많이 분포하는 유역에서는 기존의 방법을 이용하는 것보다 강우 유출량이 높게 평가될 것으로 판단된다. 앞으로 강우 유출량 실측자료와의 비교를 통해 지속적인 보정을 하여야 할 것이며 특히 불투수층의 존재시 일괄적으로 D유형으로 분류된 토양의 경우 깊이에 따라 C 또는 D 유형으로 세분하여 조정할 필요가 있다.

Given the explosion of genomic data and expansion of applications such as precision medicine, the importance of efficient genome-database management continues to grow. Traditional compression techniques may be effective in reducing the size of a database, but a new challenge follows in terms of performing operations such as comparison and searches on the compressed database. Based on that many genome databases typically have numerous duplicated or similar sequences, and that the runtime of genome analyses is normally proportional to the number of sequences in a database, we propose a technique that can compress a genome database by eliminating similar entries from the database. Through our experiments, we show that we can remove approximately 84% of sequences with 1% similarity threshold, accelerating the downstream classification tasks by approximately 10 times. We also confirm that our compression method does not significantly affect the accuracy of taxonomy diversity assessments or classification.

There are about 1,500 small or large traditional markets in Korea. Those conventional markets have been struggling for survival in rapidly changing market environment with highly intensified competition by accelerating the entrance of the Large-scale Discount Store and Super Supermarket which are managed and supported by Large companies like Samsung and Lotte. The loosing power of conventional markets have threatened the local merchants' survival and have influenced local economics falling down. To create better value for the customers who have more preference for department store and discount stores than conventional markets, conventional markets should have market orientation, which has three sub dimensions; customer orientation, competitor orientation and inter-functional coordinations. First objective of study is to find the appropriate roles of conventional markets in local areas. Second is to find out the market orientation functions for conventional markets to be survival in local markets in the long terms. Finally, this study will suggest some policies for the appropriate types of successful conventional markets considering various local situations. To achieve those objectives, we did the following procedure. First, we review the previous reports and studies of policies for conventional markets and local economy development, and propose some pros and cons of the previous policies. Secondly, we develop a market orientation framework of conventional markets, in which we suggest the developmental types and functions of market-orientation of conventional markets in accordance with the characteristics of local market and economic conditions of local areas. Then we formulate and discuss the study's contributions, managerial implications, and directions for future policy development. Especially for the policy development, we suggest the efficiency and economical effects of policy, human being development and management system, and the role of government and protection of local merchants in the development process.

This study employs photovoice research methodology to investigate adolescents' experiences in sibling relationships and to analyze the impact of sibling interactions on their development and growth. The participants comprised eight high school students with one sibling (four males and four females) residing in the Incheon region. The research process encompassed several stages: participant recruitment, orientation, photovoice activity (focus group interviews), data analysis, and conclusion derivation. During the photovoice activity, participants engaged in a narrative process of photographing, interpreting, and discussing their experiences. The narratives were categorized into four primary themes: structure and environment, emotional interactions, roles, and parental subsystems. The conclusions drawn from the study are as follows: First, the similarity formed in sibling relationships during adolescence contributes to psychological stability. Second, roles and expectations based on birth order can cause stress for adolescents, indicating the need for equitable role adjustments within the family. Third, conflict in sibling relationships is crucial for enhancing problem-solving and social relationship skills. Lastly, consistent parenting attitudes significantly affect the emotional well-being of siblings. This study emphasizes the significance of fostering a deeper understanding of human development and family relationships through an exploration of adolescent sibling dynamics within home economics education.

It was common that the classification of itching was classified into four categories according to the neurophysiological mechanisms of pruritoceptive itching, neuropathic itching, neurogenic itching and psychogenic itching. Recently it was classified by clinical criteria. The neurotransmission pathway of itch is divided into histamine-dependent pathway and histamine-independent pathway. Different receptors and neuropeptides act on each itch mediator. Itch mediators such as histamine, BAM8-22, and chloroquine are transmitted through the histamine-dependent pathway. Cowhage spicule, protease, and TSLP (Thymic stromal lymphopoietin) have been reported to be related to the histamine-independent pathway. These itch mediators, receptors, and neuropeptides are the targets of treatment for itching. Although itching and pain are typical noxious stimuli, and in the past, it was argued that two senses were transmitted through one noxious stimulus receptor. It has recently been shown that itching and pain have an independent neurotransmitter system and both neuronal systems inhibit each other. In addition, the mutual antagonism between itching and pain is explained by various mechanisms. Recently, many new mediators and receptors are being studied. The studies on histamine 4 receptor (H4 receptor) have been actively conducted. And the H4 receptors are expressed in immune cells such as T cells. The therapeutic agent for blocking the H4 receptor can inhibit the inflammatory reaction itself, which is important for the itching and chronicization. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of itching and studying new itch mediators will lead to the development of effective therapies, and this is what I think the itching study will go on.
