A local alignment algorithm does comparing two strings and finding a substring pair with size l and similarity s. To find a pair with both sufficient size and high similarity, existing normalization approaches maximize the ratio of the similarity to the size. In this paper, we introduce normalization by functions that maximizes f(s)/g(l), where f and g are non-decreasing functions. These functions, f and g, are determined by experiments comparing DNA sequences. In the experiments, our normalization by functions finds appropriate local alignments. For the previous algorithm, which evaluates the similarity by using the longest common subsequence, we show that the algorithm can also maximize the score normalized by functions, f(s)/g(l) without loss of time.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the disparity in on-the-job training between regular and non-regular workers and to compare the wage effects of on-the-job training. Using the Korean micro data from the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies(PIAAC) published by OECD, Propensity Score Method(PSM) is applied to overcome the endogeneity problem. The average treatment effect(ATT) on the training participation is analyzed, using non-regular workers as treatment group and regular workers as comparison group. Odds ratios of non-regular employees' training participation compared to regular employees shows 0.67 times after constructing matching sample and this means that non-regular workers are facing a disadvantageous training opportunity compared to regular workers. In order to estimate the wage effect of on-the-job training, the average treatment effect(ATT) of on-the-job training on average wages for regular workers and non-regular workers is estimated respectively. I find insignificant wage effect from on-the-job training among regular workers and significant positive effect on non-regular worker's wage from on-the-job training.

This paper analysed the training effects on wage and employment security by the non-standard worker types by using Economically Active Population Additional Survey data. Through propensity score matching method, we found that the regular workers' training effect on wage was 4.2%, that was very higher than 2.7% of fixed-term workers. Logistic regression analysis showed that the training participation itself did not affect on the regular workers' regular position continuance, but training duration affected. Just in fixed-term workers among non-standard workers, both of training participation and training duration affected the transition from non-standard position to regular position. The result that both training effects on wage and on employment were positive just in the fixed-term workers might be interpreted owing to the clear employment contract relation between employer and employees.

VE aims at reduction in a budget, improvement of function, structural safety and quality security for public construction projects. However, there is possibility for the structural safety and quality security review to be insufficient because related regulations are mostly composed of analysis on economic efficiency of design. In addition, due to the misconception about VE as a cost saving methodology, an alternative is being presented which still focuses mainly on cost saving, but with no objective evaluation of function related to cost. In order to improve this, the government adopted the reduction of life cycle cost and proposal of value improvement, and let people specify the cost and function of the original plan versus the alternative plan, and the value changes between them. However, it is written mainly into practical convenience rather than theoretical basis since a specific way is not suggested. The current method sets a different starting point by applying the attributional difference of function and cost. Furthermore, an evaluation standard for correlating is an important element in rational decision making for assessing and choosing an alternative. This paper analyzes the process and method of function & cost scoring when performing VE and suggests a mathematical normalization model in order to support rational decision making when selecting an optimum plan.

The decathlon is an athletic event consisting of ten track and field events. Events are held over two consecutive days and the winners are determined by the combined performance in all. Performance is judged in meters, centimeters, minutes, and seconds. However, how to convert results into points is a difficult and controversial issue. We explored the distribution of decathlon results from the 1991 to 2009 using top 200 decathlons in the Olympic games and word championships. The conclusion is that the results from top level decathlon competition are normally distributed, and the current scoring system does not have the property that the performance with same difficulty should get same points. A new model for evaluating the decathlon score has been applied that display uniform characteristics over all events in order to meet the notion of allroundness. The proposed model is uniform over the events and support self-stabilization.

본 논문에서는 의존 구조 매칭과 약한 지도식 학습 방법을 적용하여 텍스트에서 IS-A 관계를 자동으로 추출하고 순위화하는 방법을 제안한다. 텍스트에서 잠재적인 IS-A 관계를 표현하는 [관계 표현, 하위어, 상위어]의 삼진관계 리스트를 추출하고, 관계 표현과 IS-A 관계 인스턴스, IS-A 관계 후보, 사이의 상호 관련성을 이용하여 각각의 점수를 반복적으로 정제한다. 제안한 방법의 대표적인 특징은 다음과 같다. 1) 의존 구조에 기반한 패턴 매칭 방법을 적용하여 정규 표현에 기반한 방법보다 다양한 형태의 삼진관계를 추출할 수 있고, 2) 도메인 코퍼스에서 통계적으로 추출한 어휘 사이의 관련성 정보를 이용하여 도메인에 적합한 IS-A 관계 인스턴스의 순위를 높일 수 있으며, 3) 관계 표현과 관계 인스턴스의 점수를 상호 관련성에 기반한 방법으로 반복적으로 점수화하여 IS-A 관계 인스턴스 사이의 변별력을 높일 수 있다. 실험에서 순위화된 관계 인스턴스는 전문가의 판단과 66%이상 일치함을 보였고, 의존 구조를 이용한 유연한 패턴 매칭 방법은 정규표현을 이용한 방법보다 43.6%의 추가적인 삼진관계를 추출하였다.

The present paper develops a test of the multivariate normality based on nonlinear transformations and the likelihood function. For checking the normality, we test the shape parameter which indexes the family of transformations. A score test and a parametric bootstrap test are used to evaluate the discrepancy between the data and a multivariate normal distribution. In order to compare the performance of our test with the existing tests, a simulation study was carried out for several situations where nuisance parameters have to be estimated. The results showed that the proposed method is superior to the existing methods.

The last decade has witnessed a surge of research interest in differences between regular and irregular workers in employment forms. Recent studies on estimating wage differentials between the two types of workers in employment forms have typically used the linear regression analysis. Our study utilizes a new methodology to estimate wage differentials between the two types of workers: data matching. Our method can perform better than the ordinary regression analysis because it carefully addresses the selection bias problem. Our results indicate that there is no significant difference in wage between regular and irregular workers.

The purpose of this study is to confirm the MKT(Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching) of the pre-service mathematics teachers on the normal distribution through the comparative analysis between the sub-elements of the MKT. In addition, it is to examine the factors that cause the difference of the subjects' MKT. To accomplish this, by the subject of 24 secondary pre-service mathematics teachers, in this study the test items of the MKT on the normal distribution were developed and data were collected and analyzed. As a result of the analysis of the MKT test sheet, the CCK(Common Content Knowledge) of the preparatory mathematics teacher was confirmed as a high score, whereas the SCK(Specialized Content Knowledge) and KCS(Knowledge of Content and Students) were confirmed as low scores. In addition, through these results, it could be confirmed that the difference in MKT of preparatory mathematicians occurred.

본 연구는 아날로그 신호를 사용하는 공중교환 전화망과 접속되는 그룹 3(G3) 팩시밀리의 화상 품질을 측정하는 방법을 제시하였다. CCITT(현 ITU-TS) 표준시험 도표 No.2를 이용하여 전송된 화상에 대한 평가는 설문조사를 통해 평가되었고, 그것들은 MOS(Mean Opinion Score) 방법에 의해 계량화되었다. 설문지의 결과에 대한 상관 분석을 통해 문항을 하나의 종합 평가 문항으로 줄일 수 있음을 살펴보았다. 그리고 그 점수들의 평균들에 대한 차이를 분석함으로써 팩시밀리 화상 품질에 영향을 미치는 요인들의 유의성을 검정하였다. 유의성을 검정하는 방법들로 t 검정법과 Vander Waerden Scores 방법을 제시하였다. 그리고 검정 결과 점수 평균이 유의하지 않은 그룹들을 하나의 그룹으로 하여 그 그룹에 있어서 점수 히스토그램을 구하였다. 이 히스토그램을 하나의 정규 분포 곡선으로 근사시켜 팩시밀리 화상 품질 평가치를 살펴보았다.
