최근 인구와 기계문명의 발달로 예전에 비해 좀더 복잡한 응급 사고가 발생하고 있다. 현재 응급 구조 시스템은 타인에 의한 신고나 정적인 웹페이지로 수집된 정보를 통해 당시 상황에 맞춰 응급 체계를 수립하고 있다. 이는 비전문 의료인인 구급대원의 현장 판단과 의료기관으로의 부적절한 판단으로 인해 응급 환자의 적절한 치료의 가능성을 낮추는 요인이 될 수 있다. 따라서 선행연구로써 기존의 응급 의료 시스템에 멀티 에이전트 개념을 도입하여 멀티 에이전트 기반의 응급 의료 시스템(MAEMS)을 모델링하였다. 멀티 에이전트 시스템은 독립적인 성격과 자율적인 성격으로 않은 부분에 응용되어 설계되고 있다. 특히 에이전트의 독립적인 성격은 이질적인 환경에서 동일한 목적의 행위를 수행할 수 있으며, 동적으로 많은 변화가 있는 상황에서 자율적으로 판단하여 행동할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 MAEMS에 구성되어 있는 각 에이전트를 구현하며, ARENA를 통해 시뮬레이션함으로써 실제 통계자료와 비교하여 멀티 에이전트를 도입한 응급 의료 시스템의 효율성에 대해 연구한다.

In the last decade, substantial progress has been achieved in intelligent traffic control technologies to overcome consistent difficulties of traffic congestion and its adverse effect on smart cities. Edge computing is one such advanced progress facilitating real-time data transmission among vehicles and roadside units to mitigate congestion. An edge computing-based deep reinforcement learning system is demonstrated in this study that appropriately designs a multiobjective reward function for optimizing different objectives. The system seeks to overcome the challenge of evaluating actions with a simple numerical reward. The selection of reward functions has a significant impact on agents' ability to acquire the ideal behavior for managing multiple traffic signals in a large-scale road network. To ascertain effective reward functions, the agent is trained withusing the proximal policy optimization method in several deep neural network models, including the state-of-the-art transformer network. The system is verified using both hypothetical scenarios and real-world traffic maps. The comprehensive simulation outcomes demonstrate the potency of the suggested reward functions.

In this paper, we propose a new neuro-fuzzy controller based on reinforcement learning. The proposed system is composed of neuro-fuzzy controller which decides the behaviors of an agent, and dynamic recurrent neural networks(DRNNs) which criticise the result of the behaviors. Neuro-fuzzy controller is learned by reinforcement learning. Also, DRNNs are evolved by genetic algorithms and make internal reinforcement signal based on external reinforcement signal from environments and internal states. This output(internal reinforcement signal) is used as a teaching signal of neuro-fuzzy controller and keeps the controller on learning. The proposed system will be applied to controller optimization and adaptation with unknown environment. In order to verifY the effectiveness of the proposed system, it is applied to collision avoidance of an autonomous mobile robot on computer simulation.

Due to the frequent and unpredictable topology changes, multicast still remains as challenge and no one-size-fits-all protocol could serve all kinds of needs in mobile ad hoc network. In this paper, we propose a novel scheme of Hierarchical Eulerian Ring Oriented Multicast Architecture (HEROMA) over mobile ad hoc network. It has features that concentrate on efficiency and robustness simultaneously. It is also an application-driven proposal for hazard detection. Architectures including Eulerian ring, hierarchy and multicast agent are investigated in detail Simulation results different level of improvements on control traffic, end-to-end delay and packet delivery ratio by comparing with tree-based and mesh-based multicast protocols.

In this paper, DSPOCS(Digital Switchgear-Panel Operation and Control Solution) is designed, which is the intelligent inference based operation and control solution to obtain the safety and reliability of electric power supply in substation based on IED. DSPOCS is designed as a scheduled monitoring and control task and a real-time alarm inference task, and is interlinked with BRES(Bus Reconfiguration Expert System) in the required case. The intelligent alarm inference task consists of the alarm knowledge generation part and the real-time pattern matching part. The alarm knowledge generation part generates automatically alarm knowledge from DB saves it in alarm knowledge base. On the other hand, the pattern matching part inferences the real-time event by comparing the real-time event information furnished from IEDs of substation with the patterns of the saved alarm knowledge base.; Especially, alarm knowledge base includes the knowledge patterns related with fault alarm, the overload alarm and the diagnosis alarm. In order to design the database independently in substation structure, busbar is represented as a connectivity node which makes the more generalized graph theory possible. Finally, DSPOCS is implemented in MS Visual $C^{++}$, MFC, the effectiveness and accuracy of the design is verified by simulation study to the typical distribution substation.

Evacuation time estimation (ETE) is crucial for the effective implementation of resident protection measures as well as planning, owing to its applicability to nuclear emergencies. However, as confirmed in the Fukushima case, the ETE performed by nuclear operators does not reflect behavioral features, exposing thus, gaps that are likely to appear in real-world situations. Existing research methods including surveys and interviews have limitations in extracting highly feasible behavioral features. To overcome these limitations, we propose a VR-based immersive experiment system. The VR system realistically simulates nuclear emergencies by structuring existing disasters and human decision processes in response to the disasters. Evacuation behavioral features were quantitatively extracted through the proposed experiment system, and this system was systematically verified by statistical analysis and a comparative study of experimental results based on previous research. In addition, as part of future work, an application method that can simulate multi-level evacuation dynamics was proposed. The proposed experiment system is significant in presenting an innovative methodology for quantitatively extracting human behavioral features that have not been comprehensively studied in evacuation. It is expected that more realistic evacuation behavioral features can be collected through additional experiments and studies of various evacuation factors in the future.

Purpose : To develop a theoretical model for magnetic relaxation behavior of the superparamagnetic nano-particle agent, which demonstrates multi-functionality such as liver- and lymp node-specificity. Based on the developed model, the computer simulation was performed to clarify the relationship between relaxation time and the applied magnetic field strength. Materials and Methods : The ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) was encapsulated with biocompatiable polymer, to develop a relaxation model based on outsphere mechanism, which was resulting from diffusion and/or electron spin fluctuation. In addition, Brillouin function was introduced to describe the full magnetization by considering the fact that the low-field approximation, which was adapted in paramagnetic case, is no longer valid. The developed model describes therefore the T1 and T2 relaxation behavior of superparamagnetic iron oxide both in low-field and in high-field. Based on our model, the computer simulation was performed to test the relaxation behavior of superparamagnetic contrast agent over various magnetic fields using MathCad (MathCad, U.S.A.), a symbolic computation software. Results : For T1 and T2 magnetic relaxation characteristics of ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide, the theoretical model showed that at low field (<1.0 Mhz), $\tau_{S1}(\tau_{S2}$, in case of T2), which is a correlation time in spectral density function, plays a major role. This suggests that realignment of nano-magnetic particles is most important at low magnetic field. On the other hand, at high field, $\tau$, which is another correlation time in spectral density function, plays a major role. Since $\tau$ is closely related to particle size, this suggests that the difference in R1 and R2 over particle sizes, at high field, is resulting not from the realignment of particles but from the particle size itself. Within normal body temperature region, the temperature dependence of T1 and T2 relaxation time showed that there is no change in T1 and T2 relaxation times at high field. Especially, T1 showed less temperature dependence compared to T2. Conclusion : We developed a theoretical model of r magnetic relaxation behavior of ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO), which was reported to show clinical multi-functionality by utilizing physical properties of nano-magnetic particle. In addition, based on the developed model, the computer simulation was performed to investigate the relationship between relaxation time of USPIO and the applied magnetic field strength.

Flooding based routing protocols are usually used to disseminate information in wireless sensor networks. Those approaches, however, require message retransmissions to all nodes and induce huge collision rate and high energy consumption. In this paper, HoGoP (Hop based Gossiping Protocol) in which all nodes consider the number of hops from sink node to them, and decide own gossiping probabilities, is introduced. A node can decide its gossiping probability according to the required average reception percentage and the number of parent nodes which is counted with the difference between its hop and neighbors' ones. Therefore the decision of gossiping probability for network topology is adaptive and this approach achieves higher message reception percentage with low message retransmission than the flooding scheme. Through simulation, we compare the proposed protocol with some previous ones and evaluate its performance in terms of average reception percentage, average forwarding percentage, and forwarding efficiency. In addition, average reception percentage is analyzed according to the application requirement.
