Blast furnaces are crucial equipment for steel production. A typical furnace risks unexpected accidents caused by contraction and expansion of the walls under an environment of high temperature and pressure. In this study, an acoustic emission (AE) monitoring system was tested for evaluating the large-scale structural health of a blast furnace. Based on the growth of shell cracks with the emission of high energy levels, severe damage can be detected by monitoring increases in the AE energy parameter. Using this monitoring system, steel mill operators can establish a maintenance period, in which actual shell cracks can be verified by cross-checking the UT. From this study, we expect that AE systems permit early fault detection for structural health monitoring by establishing evaluation criteria based on the severity of shell cracking.

The aim of this study is to apply and to evaluate the radar-based risk prediction algorithm for damage reduction by sudden localized heavy rain in urban areas. The algorithm is combined with three processes such as "detection of cumulonimbus convective cells that can cause a sudden downpour", "automatic tracking of the detected convective cells", and "risk prediction by considering the possibility of sudden downpour". This algorithm was applied to rain events that people were marooned in small urban stream. As the results, the convective cells were detected through this algorithm in advance and it showed that it is possible to determine the risk of the phenomenon of developing into local heavy rain. When use this risk predicted results for flood prevention operation, it is able to secure the evacuation time in small streams and be able to reduce the casualties.

We propose a new technique of deinterleaving multiple radar pulse sequences by means of genetic algorithm for threat identification in electronic warfare(EW) system. The conventional approaches based on histogram or continuous wavelet transform are so deterministic that they are subject to failing in detection of individual signal characteristics under real EW signal environment that suffers frequent signal missing, noise, and counter-EW signal. The proposed algorithm utilizes the probabilistic optimization procedure of genetic algorithm. This method, a time-of-arrival(TOA) only strategy, constructs an initial chromosome set using the difference of TOA. To evaluate the fitness of each gene, the defined pulse phase is considered. Since it is rare to meet with a single radar at a moment in EW field of combat, multiple solutions are to be derived in the final stage. Therefore it is designed to terminate genetic process at the prematured generation followed by a chromosome grouping. Experimental results for simulated and real radar signals show the improved performance in estimating both the number of radar and the pulse repetition interval.

In this paper, we propose a system to detect various damage automatically inflicted on road pavement by collecting and analyzing data from acceleration and camera sensors in real time. The proposed system sends the collected images, acceleration signals, and GPS coordinates to the road manager and the database in the remote server, shortly after detecting the damage to the road pavement. Our study makes three key contributions. The proposed system 1) enables road managers to maintain road conditions quickly, accurately, and conveniently; 2) allows road mangers to take care of various kinds of damage to the road pavement at the initial stage; and finally 3) even makes it possible to track the damage, which suggests that the integration of a high-level decision support function becomes affordable. We tested the sensitivity and precision of the proposed system against real-time data obtained from the vehicles driving on the highway at an average speed of 100 km/h. With ten iterations, the proposed system achieved an average sensitivity of 74% and an average precision of 84% in road pavement damage detection, which is comparable with the best competing schemes.

As the Internet began to become popular, there have been hacking and attacks on networks including systems, and as the techniques evolved day by day, it put risks and burdens on companies and society. In order to alleviate that risk and burden, it is necessary to detect hacking and attacks early and respond appropriately. Prior to that, it is necessary to increase the reliability in detecting network intrusion. This study was conducted on applying weight initialization and weight optimization to the KDD'99 dataset to improve the accuracy of detecting network intrusion. As for the weight initialization, it was found through experiments that the initialization method related to the weight learning structure, like Xavier and He method, affects the accuracy. In addition, the weight optimization was confirmed through the experiment of the network intrusion detection dataset that the Adam algorithm, which combines the advantages of the Momentum reflecting the previous change and RMSProp, which allows the current weight to be reflected in the learning rate, stands out in terms of accuracy.

In this paper, the P-wave multiple detection system for the fast and accurate earthquake early warning nearby the epicenter was developed. The developed systems were installed in five selected public buildings for the validation. During the monitoring, a magnitude 2.3 earthquake occurred in Pohang on 26 September 2019. P-wave initial detection algorithms were operated in three out of four systems installed in Pohang area and recorded as seismic events. At the nearest station, 5.5 km from the epicenter, P-wave signal was detected 1.2 seconds after the earthquake, and S-wave was reached 1.02 seconds after the P-wave reached, providing some alarm time. The maximum accelerations recorded in three different stations were 6.28 gal, 6.1 gal, and 5.3 gal, respectively. The alarm algorithm did not work, due to the high threshold of the maximum ground acceleration (25.1 gal) to operate it. If continuous monitoring and analysis are to be carried out in the future, the developed system could use a highly effective earthquake warning system suitable for the domestic situation.

There is always a risk of water disasters due to sudden storms in mountainous regions in Korea, which is more than 70% of the country's land. In this study, a radar-based risk prediction technique for sudden downpour is applied in the mountainous region and is evaluated for its applicability using Mt. Biseul rain radar. Eight local heavy rain events in mountain regions are selected and the information was calculated such as early detection of cumulonimbus convective cells, automatic detection of convective cells, and risk index of detected convective cells using the three-dimensional radar reflectivity, rainfall intensity, and doppler wind speed. As a result, it was possible to confirm the initial detection timing and location of convective cells that may develop as a localized heavy rain, and the magnitude and location of the risk determined according to whether or not vortices were generated. In particular, it was confirmed that the ground rain gauge network has limitations in detecting heavy rains that develop locally in a narrow area. Besides, it is possible to secure a time of at least 10 minutes to a maximum of 65 minutes until the maximum rainfall intensity occurs at the time of obtaining the risk information. Therefore, it would be useful as information to prevent flash flooding disaster and marooned accidents caused by heavy rain in the mountainous area using this technique.

본 논문에서는 기존 인공 신경망 기반 시계열 학습 기법인 Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)의 많은 연산량 및 고 사양 시스템 요구를 개선하기 위해 랜덤 포레스트 (Random Forest)기반의 새로운 시계열 학습 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 RNN 기반 방법들은 복잡한 연산을 통해 높은 성능을 달성하는 데 집중하고 있다. 이러한 방법들은 학습에 많은 파라미터가 필요할 뿐만 아니라 대규모의 연산을 요구하므로 실시간 시스템에 적용하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는, 효율적이면서 빠르게 동작할 수 있는 시계열 다층 랜덤 포레스트(Time series Multilayered Random Forest)를 제안하고 산불 조기 탐지에 적용해 기존 RNN 계열의 방법들과 성능을 비교하였다. 다양한 산불화재 실험데이터에 알고리즘을 적용해본 결과 GPU 상에서 방대한 연산을 수행하는 RNN 기반 방법들과 비교해 성능적인 한계가 존재했지만 CPU 에서도 빠르게 동작 가능하므로 성능의 개선을 통해 다양한 임베디드 시스템에 적용 가능하다.

WSN의 센서 노드는 제한된 자원으로 인해 보안상의 취약성을 가지며 공격자는 쉽게 임의의 데이터를 삽입하는 허위 데이터 주입 공격을 할 수 있다. WSN에서는 이러한 공격이 치명적이기 때문에 허위 데이터를 가능한 빨리 여과해야 한다. 허위 데이터 주입 공격을 탐지하는 기법으로 동적 여과 기법이 제안되었는데 이 기법은 초기 분배된 비밀키에 대한 재분배가 이루어지지 않아 같은 공격에 계속 노출될 경우 불필요한 에너지 소모가 발생한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 기법은 효율적인 키 재분배를 통해 허위 데이터를 빨리 감지하고 에너지 효율성을 향상시킨다. 전달 노드에서 허위 데이터가 탐지되면 정의된 알람 메시지를 통해 베이스 스테이션에 보고되고 키 재분배를 수행하여 더 효율적으로 허위 데이터를 감지한다. 그러므로 제안 기법은 기존 기법과 비교하였을 때 허위 데이터를 조기에 감지하고 전체 네트워크의 에너지를 절약한다.
