For molecular dynamics requires high-performance computers or supercomputers to handle huge amount of computation, it is not until recent days that the application of molecular dynamics to materials fracture simulations draw some attention from many researchers. With the recent advent of high-performance computers, computation intensive methods become more tractable than ever. However, carrying out materials simulation on high-performance computers costs too much in general. In this study, a PC cluster consisting of multiple commodity PCs is established and computer simulations of materials with cracks are carried out on it via molecular dynamics technique. The effect of the number of nodes, speedup factors, and communication time between nodes are measured to verify the performance of the PC cluster. Upon using the PC cluster, materials fracture simulations with more than 50,000 molecules are carried out successfully.

In order to achieve optimal retrieval, i.e., to find the best match to a query according to a certain similarity measure, the exhaustive search should be performed literally for all the images in a database. However, the straightforward exhaustive search algorithm is computationally expensive in large image databases. To reduce its heavy computational cost, this paper presents a fast exhaustive multi-resolution search algorithm based on image database clustering. Firstly, the proposed algorithm partitions the whole image data set into a pre-defined number of clusters having similar feature contents. Next, for a given query, it checks the lower bound of distances in each cluster, eliminating disqualified clusters. Then, it only examines the candidates in the remaining clusters. To alleviate unnecessary feature matching operations in the search procedure, the distance inequality property is employed based on a multi-resolution data structure. The proposed algorithm realizes a fast exhaustive multi-resolution search for either the best match or multiple best matches to the query. Using luminance histograms as a feature, we prove that the proposed algorithm guarantees optimal retrieval with high searching speed.

This study proposes an unsupervised learning-based clustering model to estimate the ESG ratings of domestic public institutions. To achieve this, the optimal number of clusters was determined by comparing spectral clustering and k-means clustering. These results are guaranteed by calculating the Davies-Bouldin Index (DBI), a model performance index. The DBI values were 0.734 for spectral clustering and 1.715 for k-means clustering, indicating lower values showed better performance. Thus, the superiority of spectral clustering was confirmed. Furthermore, T-test and ANOVA were used to reveal statistically significant differences between ESG non-financial data, and correlation coefficients were used to confirm the relationships between ESG indicators. Based on these results, this study suggests the possibility of estimating the ESG performance ranking of each public institution without existing ESG ratings. This is achieved by calculating the optimal number of clusters, and then determining the sum of averages of the ESG data within each cluster. Therefore, the proposed model can be employed to evaluate the ESG ratings of various domestic public institutions, and it is expected to be useful in domestic sustainable management practice and performance management.

A Clustering problem is one of the organizational problems to improve network lifetime and scalability in underwater acoustic sensor networks. This paper propose an algorithm to obtain an optimal clustering solution to be able to minimize a total transmission power for all deployed nodes to transmit data to the sink node through its clusterhead. In general, as the number of nodes increases, the amount of calculation for finding the solution would be too much increased. To obtain the optimal solution within a reasonable computation time, we propose a genetic algorithm to obtain the optimal solution of the cluster configuration. In order to make a search more efficient, we propose some efficient neighborhood generating operations of the genetic algorithm. We evaluate those performances through some experiments in terms of the total transmission power of nodes and the execution time of the proposed algorithm. The evaluation results show that the proposed algorithm is efficient for the cluster configuration in underwater acoustic sensor networks.

This paper proposes a self-organizing fuzzy modeling which can create a new hyperplane-shaped cluster by applying multiple regression to input/output data with relatively large fuzzy entropy, add the new cluster to fuzzy rule base and adjust parameters of the fuzzy model in repetition. Tn the coarse tuning, weighted recursive least squared algorithm and fuzzy C-regression model clustering are used and in the fine tuning, gradient descent algorithm is used to adjust parameters of the fuzzy model precisely And learning rates are optimized by utilizing meiosis-genetic algorithm. To check the effectiveness and feasibility of the suggested algorithm, four representative examples for system identification are examined and the performance of the identified fuzzy model is demonstrated in comparison with that of the conventional fuzzy models.

Cluster analysis is based on partitioning a collection of data points into a number of clusters, where the data points in side a cluster have a certain degree of similarity and it is a fundamental process of data analysis. So, it has been playing an important role in solving many problems in pattern recognition and image processing. For these many clustering algorithms depending on distance criteria have been developed and fuzzy set theory has been introduced to reflect the description of real data, where boundaries might be fuzzy. If fuzzy cluster analysis is tomake a significant contribution to engineering applications, much more attention must be paid to fundamental questions of cluster validity problem which is how well it has identified the structure that is present in the data. Several validity functionals such as partition coefficient, claasification entropy and proportion exponent, have been used for measuring validity mathematically. But the issue of cluster validity involves complex aspects, it is difficult to measure it with one measuring function as the conventional study. In this paper, we propose four performance indices and the way to measure the quality of clustering formed by given learning strategy.

진화 알고리즘에서 고려할 사항 중 하나는 문제와 관련 있는 진화연산 즉, 교배 연산과 돌연변이 연산을 정의하는 것이다. 일반적으로 교배 연산은 두 개체의 정보를 교환하는 재조합 연산으로써 진화의 속도를 촉진시키는 역할을 하고 돌연변이 인산은 개체집단의 다양성 을 유지시키는 역할을 한다. 그러나 이러한 진화연산자는 확률에 근거하여 모든 개체에 적용되는 맹목적인 연산이 가질 수 있는 진화시간 지연의 문제점을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 맹목적 진화연산에 의한 진화 시간 지연을 해결하기 위해 휴리스틱 연산을 제안한다. 휴리스픽 연산은 문제의 특성에 맞지 않는 개체에만 적용되는 연산으로 진화 시간을 단축시킬 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 휴리스틱 연산의 타당성을 확인하기 위해 본 논문에서는 진화 알고리즘을 이용하여 최적의 클러스터 위치와 개수를 자동으로 찾아주는 문제에 클러스터의 특성을 고려한 휴리스틱 연산인 합병연산과 분할연산 그리고 K-means연산을 정의하여 다차원 실험데이터로 실험한 결과를 보이고 있다.

The size of data generated and collected at industrial sites or in public institutions is growing rapidly. The existing data processing server often handles the increasing data by increasing the performance by scaling up. However, in the big data era, when the speed of data generation is exploding, there is a limit to data processing with a conventional server. To overcome such limitations, a distributed cluster computing system has been introduced that distributes data in a scale-out manner. However, because distributed cluster computing systems distribute data, inefficient use of network bandwidth can degrade the performance of the cluster as a whole. In this paper, we propose a scheme that compresses data when transmitting data in a Hadoop cluster considering network bandwidth. The proposed scheme considers the network bandwidth and the characteristics of the compression algorithm and selects the optimal compression transmission scheme before transmission. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme reduces data transfer time and size.

무선 센서 네트워크는 다수의 센서 노드와 하나의 싱크노드로 구성된다. 센서 네트워크상에 분포된 센서 노드들은 데이터 전송 중에 배터리 재충전이나 변경이 곤란하다. 센서들의 제한적 특성을 때문에 일반 유선 네트워크와 달리 에너지 효율적인 네트워크 설계를 요구한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 계층적 클러스터 라우팅 프로토콜로서 LEACH 프로토콜을 분석하고, 센서들의 에너지 소모를 줄이고, 네트워크 수명을 연장하는 개선된 LEACH 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다. 최적 클러스터를 결정하는 기법을 이용하여 클러스터 수를 고려한 클러스터를 형성하고, 성능 분석은 MATALAB을 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 본 개선된 프로토콜이 LEACH 프로토콜과 비교하여 우수함을 보였다.
