The goal of qualitative analysis is to capture and formalize qualitative and intuitive knowledge about physical world. Qualitative reasoning has been successfully applied to electric and mechanical mechanism domains, in which most of reasoning has focused on simulation. This paper introduces a qualitative comparative analysis technique which predicts how a change in a given situation propagates. We developed a comparative analysis technique which extends previous research by including a reasoning technique about the relative rate of the change of a parameter. Previous research focuses only on the relative change of a parameter. Causal model for the given situation is generated from qualitative domain model. The propagation by the change in causal relations are traced by applying our comparative analysis. By providing explanation as well as prediction for the given change, our technique is expected to be used in design, diagnosis, intelligent tutoring system, environmental evaluation.

The purpose of this study is to analyse the eighth grade students' performance of open investigations for two kinds of tasks: the qualitative one which involves the descriptive approach through observation, and the quantitative one which involves the quantitative data processing through control of variables. Researcher's observation, interview data as well as students' investigation reports, self-evaluations were analysed. The difficulties of qualitative open investigation lie in detecting and dealing with unexpected observations, of which the acceptance and interpretation were influenced by preconceptions. On the other hand, managing several variables, making reliable and valid measures, and quantitative data processing constituted main difficulties of quantitative open investigation. Some students could recognize the deficiencies of their methods and findings in qualitative one, but few in quantitative one. These results suggest the teaching point for each task of open investigations.

현대 사회의 소프트웨어 사용편의성 평가는 기존의 사용편의성 평가 방법론들보다 더 효율적이고 체계적인 방법론들이 나와야 한다. 이 논문에서는 정성적이고 정량적인 두 가지 측면을 모두 고려한 체계적인 컴포넌트 기반의 소프트웨어 사용편의성 평가 방법론을 제시하고 있다. 소프트웨어의 사용편의성을 평가하기 위하여 정량적인 측면인 수행도와 정성적인 측면인 사용자 만족도를 모두 고려하게 된다. 사용자 만족도에는 감성, 학습성, 가시성으로 구성되고 수행도는 효율성과 효과성으로 구성된다.

To develop a cognitive system with the flexibility and breadth of human reasoning, it's very important to construct a large scale knowledge base which includes commonsense knowledge as well as expert knowledge. This paper introduces a cognitive system which provides a commonsense reasoning for everyday physical phenomena using qualitative reasoning. It is difficult to apply previous qualitative reasoning to commonsense reasoning since it provides reasoning based on abstract concepts which are apart from everyday real world concepts. Our research provides commonsense reasoning based on sketches and real world concepts by integrating qualitative reasoning and general large scale Cyc knowledge base. Our system has been implemented and tested on various examples.

밤나무산누에나방(Dictyploca japonica)의 아미노산을 paper chromatogrphy법을 이용하여 용에서 난까지 정성적으로 분석하였다. 1. 분석 결과 19 종의 유리아미노산이 검출되었으며 각 stage는 유리아미노산의 정성적 pattern의 변동을 보였다. 2. Serine은 전 stage에서 높은 농도로 검출되었다. 3. 유리아미노산의 정류수는 종류수는 나방이의 발생과 더불어 증가하고 일반적으로 male 보다는 female 에 있어서 그 수가 많았다. 4. Tryptophane은 각 stage에서 전연 검출되지 않았다.

연구결과는 학술적인 논문, 기술의 기반이 되는 특허, 기술이 체화된 상품 등 다양한 방법으로 도출되고 있다. 현재까지 연구 성과를 측정하는데 있어서 수치로 표시되는 정량적인 평가는 용이하게 활용하고 있다. 하지만 질적인 우수성을 평가하기 위한 정성적인 방법은 많은 연구를 필요로 한다. 각기 다른 목적이나 용도로 만들어진 평가지표나 방법론이 적절하게 적용하여 평가지표로 적용되어 지기는 힘든 상황이다. 특히 연구자나 기관 등의 평가 시 연구논문을 활용한 계량정보기법을 근간으로 하는 다양한 방법이 많은 연구자들을 통해 제시되고 있다. 또한 학술적인 논문뿐아니라 산업으로 대표되는 특허의 평가시도 유사한 방법을 활용하고 있다. 문헌의 경우는 SCI DB를 활용하여 정성적인 부분을 대체하고 있다. 하지만 산업으로 대표되는 특허의 정성 평가는 많이 활용하지 못하고 있다. 이에 특히 문헌 및 특허의 인용정보를 대상으로 최근 제안되고 있는 연구 성과 지표인 h-지수 등을 활용하여 사례를 분석하여 보고자 한다.

This study develops composite indicators that is capable of estimating QOS (Quality of Service) of pedestrians by enhancing estimation for Level of Service in present transporting spaces for pedestrians that merely concerns quantitative indicators such as pedestrian flow rate, pedestrian stoppage. This paper conducts survey questionnaire to collect data. It utilizes AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) and ANP(Analytic Network Process). The main results show that: first, ANP is better analytic methods than AHP due to the fact that pedestrians feel repetition when they judge level of service. Second, qualitative factors such as pedestrian behaviors, maintenance, scenary for pedestrians and environments should be considered. Importance of qualitative factors is higher in residential area than other areas. I expect that using qualitative indicators and quantitative indicators is appropriate in order to estimate pedestrians' QOS.

The purpose of this study was to analyze physics problem solving processes to qualitative and quantitative problems in the area of 'Force and Motion' in high school science. The students who have already learned the area of 'Force and Motion' during the first semester of 10th grade have taken physics test to choose students who have basic knowledge of physics. Eight students were selected. After explaining the purpose and the procedure of this study, think-aloud method was instructed to the students, and the students practiced it. After that, the students solved three problems in each quantitative and qualitative type. Then, the questionnaire of belief system on physics and physics problem solving and the prerequisite knowledge test were administered. By recording the students' solving processes, protocol was made and analyzed. After solving problems, the students expressed their confidence, intimacy, and preference. Quantitative problems needed much time at planning step than qualitative problems did. Moreover, solving time was longer and repeating frequency was more than those of qualitative problems. It seemed because even though the students qualitatively knew the answer, they should determine the given quantitative conditions, consider formulae, and recall the specific numbers. Since the students usually got access to many quantitative items in their physics study, they were accustomed to solve problems by using formulae. In addition, they put confidence in formulae, so they tended to solve problems quantitatively. As the result, they preferred quantitative problems to qualitative problems.

Reconstruction of collision accidents is to analyze the cause of accidents and collision behavior using available information from vehicle accident circumstances. This paper introduces a collision reconstruction system which is developed to be applicable to traffic accident reconstruction. Our System combines both quantitative and qualitative collision models so as to compensate for weaknesses in each with strengths of each other. I It provides accurate predictions and causal explanations of the collision behavior. During r reverse analysis of collision. qualitative simulation is used to verify a hypothesis and to detect any conflict in early stage of reconstruction. It is implemented and applied to real car-to-car collision accidents. The test results verify the reliabilities of our techniques.

본 논문에서는 인공지능이 생성하는 일상 대화의 품질 향상을 위해 상식 추론을 정의하고 설문을 통해 정량적, 정성적 분석을 진행하였다. 정량적 평가에서는 주어진 문장이 에게 학습시키기에 적합한가'라는 수용성 판단을 요청한 질문에서 40대 이상의 연령이 20, 30대와 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 정성적 평가에서는 '보편적 사실 여부'를 AI 발화 기준의 주요한 지표로 보았다. 이어서 '챗봇' 대화의 품질에 대한 설문을 실시했다. 이를 통해 일상 대화를 사용한 챗봇의 대화 품질을 높이기 위해서는 먼저, 질문의 요구에 적절한 정보와 공감을 제공해야 하고 두 번째로 공감의 정도가 챗봇의 특성에 맞는 응답이어야 하며 세 번째로 대화의 차례에 따라 담화의 규칙을 지키면서 대화가 진행되어야 한다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 이 세 가지 요건이 통합적으로 적용된 담화 설계를 통해 완전히 인공지능스러운 대화가 가능할 것으로 여겨진다.
