Reinforcement learning takes reward about selecting action when agent chooses some action and did state transition in Present state. this can be the important subject in reinforcement learning as temporal-credit assignment problems. In this paper, by new meta heuristic method to solve hard combinational optimization problem, examine Ant-Q learning method that is proposed to solve Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) to approach that is based for population that use positive feedback as well as greedy search. And, suggest Ant-TD reinforcement learning method that apply state transition through diversification strategy to this method and TD-error. We can show through experiments that the reinforcement learning method proposed in this Paper can find out an optimal solution faster than other reinforcement learning method like ACS and Ant-Q learning.

We propose a hierarchical architecture of ART2 Network for performance improvement and fast pattern classification model using fitness selection. This hierarchical network creates coarse clusters as first ART2 network layer by unsupervised learning, then creates fine clusters of the each first layer as second network layer by supervised learning. First, it compares input pattern with each clusters of first layer and select candidate clusters by fitness measure. We design a optimized fitness function for pruning clusters by measuring relative distance ratio between a input pattern and clusters. This makes it possible to improve speed and accuracy. Next, it compares input pattern with each clusters connected with selected clusters and finds winner cluster. Finally it classifies the pattern by a label of the winner cluster. Results of our experiments show that the proposed method is more accurate and fast than other approaches.

In this study, we investigated how to achieve differentiation for the ISM (Internet Shopping Mall) to improve profitability, which is required for survival in the fiercely competitive ISM industry. We analyzed implementation level key managerial factors that could contribute to the differentiation of the ISM. The research model is constructed through integration of two distinctive research streams of e-commerce. The one is B2C differentiation strategy research, most of which are conceptual and conducted at a strategy level, and the other is empirical research analyzing the antecedents of customer satisfaction at the ISM. This study is organized as follows. First, we draw upon transaction cost theory to organize constructs representing customer value associated with the customer buying decision process. Next, after reviewing comprehensive managerial factors that could impact on customer value, we selected 15 managerial factors that could contribute to the differentiation of the ISM to deliver value to customers. Finally, the resulting structural model is validated through empirical analyses. The results provide insights for future studies on ISM differentiation.

In this paper, we apply the evolutionary algorithm to the combinatorial optimization problem. Evolutionary algorithm useful for the optimization of the large space problem. This paper propose a method for the reuse of wastes of light water in atomic reactor system. These wastes contain several reusable elements, and they should be carefully selected and blended to satisfy requirements as an input material to the heavy water atomic reactor system. This problem belongs to an NP-hard like the 0/1 knapsack problem. Two evolutionary strategies are used as approximation algorithms in the highly constrained combinatorial optimization problem. One is the traditional strategy, using random operator with evaluation function, and the other is heuristic based search that uses the vector operator reducing between goal and current status. We also show the method which perform the feasible test and solution evaluation by using the vectored knowledge in problem domain. Finally, We compare the simulation results of using random operator and vector operator for such combinatorial optimization problems.

This paper presents the design and the implementation of CRESTIVE-DX, a concolic testing tool that distribute the concolic testing process over the embedded target system and the host system for efficient test generation of a target embedded program. CRESTIVE-DX conducts the execution of a target program on the target embedded system to consider possible machine-dependent behaviors of a target program execution, and conducts machine-independent parts, such as search-strategy heuristics, constraint solving, on host systems with high-speed computation unit, and coordinates their concurrent executions. CRESTIVE-DX is implemented by extending an existing concolic testing tool for C programs CREST. We conducted experiments with a test bed that consists of an embedded target system in the Arm Cortex A54 architecture and host systems in the x86-64 architecture. The results of experiments with Unix utility programs Grep, Busybox Awk, and Busybox Ed show that test input generation of CRESTIVE-DX is 1.59 to 2.64 times faster than that of CREST.

The rapid change of business environments request the company to act more smart and intelligent in making business strategies and planning the business processes. To meet this requirement, we need to have smart Business Intelligent System(hereinafter "BI") in the company. On the one hand, many korean companies had already installed BI system, and the other hand some companies have plans to implement BI Systems additionally to their Information System. It is very important to have the pictures which factors are critical to the successful implementation of BI, and to survey which critical success factor(hereinafter CSF) are important compared to each factors. In this paper data was gathered from companies already have their BI Systems. We measured IT-Infra maturity, User Education, and Company Organization, and Company Business Strategy, which are the critical success factors for the BI System. After surveying the CSF of BI System, we measured the weights among these factors by AHP. Factor analysis resulted in 6 major factors (Eigenvalue > 1.0), and the AHP analysis showed the list of CSF's weight list according to its significance priorities. The results of this paper could be the valuable references for the implementing process of the BI System in korean company.
