Generally, data mining is the process of analyzing big data from different perspectives and summarizing it into useful information. The most widely used data mining technique is to generate association rules, and it finds the relevance between two items in a huge database. This technique has been used to find the relationship between each set of items based on the interestingness measures such as support, confidence, lift, etc. Among many interestingness measures, confidence is the most frequently used, but it has the drawback that it can not determine the direction of the association. The attributably pure confidence and compared confidence are able to determine the direction of the association, but their ranges are not [-1, +1]. So we can not interpret the degree of association operationally by their values. This paper propose a compared and attributably pure confidence to compensate for this drawback, and then describe some properties for a proposed measure. The comparative studies with confidence, compared confidence, attributably pure confidence, and a proposed measure are shown by numerical example. The results show that the a compared and attributably pure confidence is better than any other confidences.

The high unemployment rate is one of the major problems in most countries nowadays. Hence, the demand for small area labor statistics has rapidly increased over the past few years. However, since sample surveys for producing official statistics are mainly designed for large areas, it is difficult to produce reliable statistics at the small area level due to small sample sizes. Most of existing studies about the small area estimation are related with the estimation of parameters based on cross-sectional data. By the way, since many official statistics are repeatedly collected at a regular interval of time, for instance, monthly, quarterly, or yearly, we need an alternative model which can handle this type of panel data. In this paper, we derive the generalized kernel estimating equation which can model time-dependency among response variables and handle repeated measurement or panel data. We compare the proposed estimating equation with the generalized linear model and the generalized estimating equation through simulation, and apply it to estimating the unemployment rates of 25 areas in Gyeongsangnam-do and Ulsan for 2005.

The goal of the SmartGrid is to maximize energy efficiency by exchanging bi-directional real-time power information with the help of ICT(Information and Communication Technology). In this paper, we propose a "JRS-MS" (Joint Routing and Scheduling for Multi-channel SmartGrid) algorithm that uses numerical modeling methods in IEEE 802.11s based STDMA multi-channel SmartGrid NAN networks. The proposed algorithm controls the amount of data transmission adaptively at the link layer and finds a high data-rate path which has the least interference between traffic flows in multi-channel SmartGrid NAN networks. The proposed algorithm improve transmission performance by enhancing network utilization. By comparing the results of performance analysis between the proposed algorithm and the JRS-SG algorithm in the previous paper, we showed that the JRS-MS algorithm can improve transmission performance by maximally utilizing given network resources when the number of flows are increasing in the multi-hop NAN wireless mesh networks.

Generally, a motion vector and a disparity vector represent the motion information of an object in a single-view of camera and the displacement of the same scene between two cameras that located spatially different from each other, respectively. Conventional H.264/AVC does not use the disparity vector in the motion vector prediction because H.264/AVC has been developed for the single-view video. But, multi-view video coding that uses the inter-view prediction structure based on H.264/AVC can make use of the disparity vector instead of the motion vector when the current frame refers to the frame of different view. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an improved motion/disparity vector prediction method that consists of global disparity vector replacement and extended neighboring block prediction. From the experimental results of the proposed method compared with the conventional motion vector prediction of H.264/AVC, we achieved average 1.07% and 1.32% of BD (Bjontegaard delta)-bitrate saving for ${\pm}32$ and ${\pm}64$ of global vector search range, respectively, when the search range of the motion vector prediction is set to ${\pm}16$.

EMI/EMS 측정을 위해서는 주변 전자파 잡음(background noise)이 낮은 야외시험장(Open Area Test Site)이 가장 바람직하나, 근래 전자(전기 기기 사용의 증가와 방송.무선통신 시스템의 다양화로 인한 인공잡음(artificial noise)의 증대로 조건에 부합된 부지 선정이 어렵고, 설치 비용이 매우 크며 날씨 변화에 따라 시험 계획이 변경 될 수도 있는 단점이 있다. 전자파 분-무반사실(Semi Anechoic Chamber)은 대부분의 환경 잡음을 감쇠시키므로 야외시험장처럼 장소의 구애를 받지 않아 도시나 혹은 제품 생산지 가까이에 설치 운용이 가능하다. 그러나 큰 설치 공간과 많은 시설 유지 비용을 필요로 하며, 저주파 대역에서는 반사에 의한 공진을 완전히 제거할 수 없어 성능이 떨어진다. 또한, 최근 컴퓨터 CPU의 동작주파수가 급속하게 높아지고 PCS, IMT-2000 등과 같은 이동전화의 사용주파수도 계속해서 높아짐에 다라 미연방통신위원회(Federal Communication Commission)에서는 5㎓까지의 복사 방출 시험을 요구하고 있다. IEC 61000-4-3 복사 내성 시험규격도 휴대폰 주파수인 2㎓까지 확장되었으며 IMT-2000, Bluetooth 등 새로운 이동통신서비스가 속속 개발됨에 따라 18㎓ 까지 시험 주파수가 확장되는 추세이다. 그러나, 현재 국내 각 연구실에서 보유하고 있는 야외시험장이나 전자파 반-무반사실의 경우 1㎓이상에서의 시험이 곤란하여 수 ㎓주파수대역에서 시험이 가능한 복사 및 내성시험 시설이 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 고안된 대용 측정 시설 중 대표적인 것이 TEM 셀이나 GTEM셀과 같은 TEM 도파관(waveguide) 형태의 장비들이다. 이들은 본래 EMS 측정을 위한 장비이지만 협소한 공간이나 외부와의 전자파 간섭의 우려가 없고, 설치가 비교적 자유로워 여러 연구기관에서 도파관 원리를 이용한 측정 방식을 연구(개발하여 범용적인 전자파 적합성 측정 장비로서 활용하고 있다. 야외시험장과 무반사실 등이 안테나에 의한 피시험기기 주변 공간에서의 1점 측정으로 인해 시험 시간이 많아 소요되는 공통적인 단점이 있는 반면, TEM 도파관에 의한 측정은 일단 피시험기기의 모델링 정보만 얻어지면 계산에 의해 EMI 측정을 바로 할 수 있다. <표 1>에서 현재 상용화되어 사용되고 있는 TEM/GTEM 셀, 야외 시험장 및 전자파 무반사실에 대해 EMI 측정과 관련된 몇 가지 사안에 대해 비교하였다. 본 문서에서는 야외시험장이나 전자파 반-무반사실 등과 같은 기존 EMI/EMS 측정 시설의 단점을 보완하고, 광대역 특성을 갖는 대용 측정 시설로서의 TEM 도파관에 대해 소개하고 야외시험장 결과와의 상관관계 알고리즘 및 표준화 동향에 대해 기술하였다. 2절에서는 대표적인 TEM 도파관 구조의 측정 시설인 TEM 셀과 GTEM 셀의 전기적.구조적 특징에 대해 간단히 기술하고, 3절에서는 TEM 셀과 GTEM 셀에서이 측정결과를 이용하여 야외 시험장 결과를 얻어내는 상관관계 알고리즘에 대해 기술하였다. 4절에서는 IEC/CISPR와 TC77에서의 표준화 활동을 중심으로 현재 진행중인 TEM 도파관 관련 표준화 동향과 내용에 대해 기술하고자 한다.

The Q&A service of the official Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) webpage was installed in 2000 and have been actively used since then. In this paper, we analyze the questions asked through the Q&A service and the number of inquiries with the aid of statistical methods. We also study the contents of the questions. Specifically, we have created statistics of questions and inquiries that go monthly and yearly, and have developed categories to analyze the characteristics of questions in regards to their cognitive aspects. Each question is categorized into two elements based on their recognitive aspect: science knowledge or science study. Each element also has sub-categories that help readers understand the characteristics of the questions. For the analysis, we used a sample consisted of questions from July to December, 2004. Through this study, we achieved a better understanding of the questions asked by the Q&A service. We are planning to improve the quality of the Q&A service by extending the size of the FAQ(frequently asked questions). Throughout this study, we find that the number of questions are increasing with time, and the overall quality of the questions is improving. As we expect the number of people using our Q&A service to increase and the questions to get more difficult to answer, development of improved content is required.

With the barracks modernization project, the Ministry of National Defense has been operating 60 projects of the 75 that have been announced. It was difficult to investigate and analyze the data in the past because data could not be obtained while it was much easier to do that since data can be obtained from private companies. With the aim of increasing the usability of the facilities, the objective of this study is to present a reasonable alternative for repair and maintenance costs by investigating and analyzing the budget and the actual expenses of repair and maintenance of military facilities for the past 3 to 5 years, and then identifying the problems with these. To accomplish this, a theoretical review of previous studies and legal grounds related to repair and maintenance costs was performed, and data on the estimates and the actual expenses data used in BTL projects carried out by private companies were analyzed. First, one of the problems was that there are some items omitted, including consumables, and these items should be included in order to secure their budget. Second, in terms of the items for divided payments, two improvements had been presented: a short-term payment plan for the operation period of 3 to 5 years and a long-term payment plan for an additional and complemented period other than the operation period. The repair and maintenance costs should be further studied at the point of time in a future when the actual data on the costs and operation period of military facilities can be secured. This study is expected to serve as empirical data that will form the basis for a reasonable calculation of the construction cost for military facilities.

This study was carried out to determine the factors affecting the trend and usage of Magnetic Resonance Imaging before and after the implementation of National Health Insurance. The research materials were the MRI Execution Data, Health Insurance Review Data, and Medical Expenses in the Health Insurance Data from a General Hospital located in Dae-jeon Metropolitan City from 2004 to 2013. The subjects of analysis were 3,754 people in 2004 (prior to the implementation of Health Insurance), and 4,107-8,603 people from 2005-2013(after the implementation of Health Insurance). In terms of analysis, a comparison of the use of MRI before and after implementation of the Health Insurance of User Characteristics and Provider Characteristics were taken as $X^2$, while factor analysis for the elements that affect MRI usage was carried out by Hierarchical Multiple Regression Analysis. According to the results of this study, the level of use decreased temporarily in the initial application stages of the national health insurance, but it soon increased. In particular, the inspection rates for women, the head and neck, those not subject to the application of the national health insurance, internal medicine, and the inpatients increased. The application of the national health insurance for MRI influenced the increasing inspection rates (P<.0001). As the inspection rate for the MRI increased, it is important to expand the application of the national health insurance to reduce the national health expenditure.

For more reliable estimation of seismic source, attenuation properties and dynamic ground property, site amplification function should be considered. Among various estimation methods, this study used the Nakamura's method (1989) for estimating site amplification characteristics. This method was originally applied to the surface waves of background noise and therefore there are some limitations in applying to general wave energy. However, recently this method has been extended and applied to the S wave energy successfully. This study applied the method to S wave and Coda wave energy, which is equivalent to the backscattered S wave energy. We used more than 60 observed ground motions from 5 earthquakes which were occurred recently, with magnitude range from 3.6 to 5.1. Each station showed characteristic site amplification property in low-, high- and resonance frequencies. Some of the stations showed as high as 4 times of site amplification in the range of specific frequencies, which may imply abnormal small scale geologic strata below the station or development of various trapped modes in the basin structure. Moreover, removal of site amplification can give us more reliable seismic source and attenuation parameters, addition to the seismic hazard estimation.

The real world is spatially modelled conceptually either as discrete objects or earth surface. The generated data models are then usually represented as vector and raster respectively. Although there are limited cases where only one data model is sufficient to solve the spatial problem at hand, it is now generally accepted that GIS should be able to handle various types of data model. Recent advances in spatial technology introduced even more variety of heterogeneous data models and the need is ever growing to handle and manage efficiently these large variety of spatial data. The OGC (Open GIS Consortium), an international organization pursuing standardization in the geospatial industry. recently introduced the GMLJP2 (Geographic Mark-Up Language JP2) format which enables store and handle heterogeneous spatial data. The GMLJP2 format, which is based on the JP2 format which is an abbreviation for JPEG2000 wavelet image compression format, takes advantage of the versatility of the GML capabilities to add extra data on top of the compressed image. This study takes a close look into the GMLJP2 format to analyse and exploit its potential to handle and mange hetergeneous spatial data. Aerial image, digital map and LIDAR data were successfully transformed end archived into a single GMLJP2 file. A simple viewing program was made to view the heterogeneous spatial data from this single file.
