This paper aims at the statistical analysis of electrical fire and classification of electrical fire causes to collect electrical fires data efficiently. Electrical fire statistics are produced to monitor the number and characteristics of fires attended by fire fighters, including the causes and effects of fire so that action can be taken to reduce the human and financial cost of fire. Electrical fires make up the majority of fires in Korea(including nearly 30% of total fires according to recent figures), The incorrect and biased knowledge for electrical fires changed the classification of certain types of fires, from non-electrical to electrical. It is convenient and required to develop the standardized form that makes, in the assessment of the cause of electrical fires, the fire fighters directly ticking the appropriate box on the fire report form or making an assessment of a text description. Therefore, it is highly recommended to develop electrical fire cause classification and electrical fire assessment on the fire statistics in order to categorize and assess electrical fires exactly. In this paper newly developed electrical fire cause classification structure, which is well-defined hierarchical structure so that there are not any relationship or overlap between cause categories, is suggested. Also fire statistics systems of foreign countries are introduced and compared.

Signals of the Electroencephalogram (EEG) can reflect the electrical background activity of the brain generated by the cerebral cortex nerve cells. This has been the mostly utilized signal, which helps in effective analysis of brain functions by supervised learning methods. In this paper, an approach for improving the accuracy of EEG signal classification is presented to detect epileptic seizures. Moreover, Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is incorporated as a preprocessing step and Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) is used for denoising the signal adequately. Feature extraction of EEG signals is accomplished on the basis of three parameters namely, Standard Deviation, Correlation Dimension and Lyapunov Exponents. The Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is trained by incorporating Levenberg-Marquardt(LM) training algorithm into the backpropagation algorithm that results in high classification accuracy. Experimental results reveal that the methodology will improve the clinical service of the EEG recording and also provide better decision making in epileptic seizure detection than the existing techniques. The proposed EEG signal classification using feed forward Backpropagation Neural Network performs better than to the EEG signal classification using Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) classifier in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity.

Safety classification of systems, structures, and components (SSC) is an essential activity for nuclear reactor design and operation. The current regulatory trend is to require risk-informed safety classification that considers first, the severity, but also the frequency of SSC failures. While safety classification for nuclear power plants is covered in many regulatory and scientific publications, research reactors received less attention. Research reactors are typically of lower power but, at the same time, are less standardized i.e., have more variability in the design, operational modes, and operating conditions. This makes them more challenging when considering safety classification. This work presents the Integrated Risk-Informed Safety Classification (IRISC) procedure which is a novel extension of the IAEA recommended process with dedicated probabilistic treatment of research reactor designs. The article provides the details of probabilistic analysis performed within safety classification process to a degree that is often missing in most literature on the topic. The article presents insight from the implementation of the procedure in the safety classification for the MARIA Research Reactor operated by the National Center for Nuclear Research in Poland.

Substance identification is the first step of the REACH registration. It is essential in terms of Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) regulation and because even trace amounts of impurities or additives can affect the classification. In this study, a scheme for the screening, quantification, and interpretation of trace amounts of hazardous inorganic substances is proposed to detect the presence of more than 0.1% hazardous inorganic substances that have been affecting the hazard classification. An exemplary list of hazardous inorganic substances was created from the substances of very high concern (SVHCs) in REACH. Among 201 SVHCs, there were 67 inorganic SVHCs containing at least one or ~2-3 heavy metals, such as As, Cd, Co, Cr, Pb, Sb, and Sn, in their molecular formula. The inorganic SVHCs are listed in excel format with a search function for these heavy metals so that the hazardous inorganic substances, including each heavy metal and the calculated ratio of its atomic weight to molecular weight of the hazardous inorganic substance containing it, can be searched. The case study was conducted to confirm the validity of the established scheme with zinc oxide (ZnO). In a substance that is made of ZnO, Pb was screened by XRF analysis and measured to be 0.04% (w/w) by ICP-OES analysis. After referring to the list, the presence of Pb was interpreted just as an impurity, but not as an impurity relevant for the classification. Future studies are needed to expand on this exemplary list of hazardous inorganic substances using proper regulatory data sources.

분광혼합분석 결과로 얻어지는 각 물체의 점유비율을 활용하면 보다 세밀한 분류가 가능하다. 이는 복잡한 도심지역의 피복분류 뿐만 아니라 혼효림이 많은 한반도 임상분류에 적합한 분류기법이 될 수 있다. 효과적인 임상분류를 위해서는 무엇보다 적절한 endmember의 추출이 선행되어야 하는데, 기존에 주로 사용되었던 기하학적 방법(geometric endmember selection)은 분광특성이 유사한 산림지역에 적합하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 영상에서 직접 순수한 화소를 추출하는 기법 중의 하나인 IEA(Iterative Error Analysis)와 침엽수와 활엽수의 분광특성을 이용하여 실험지역을 대표할 수 있는 각각의 endmember를 자동으로 추출하였다. CASI(Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager) 영상의 두 지역에 대하여 분광혼합분석을 이용한 분류를 수행한 결과, 분류 정확도는 각각 86%와 90%로, 제안한 기법이 실험대상지역을 대표하는 침엽수와 활엽수의 endmember를 적절하게 추출한 것으로 나타났다. 분광혼합분석 기법을 이용한 보다 효과적인 분류를 위해서 분류항목 외 기타물질을 endmember로 고려하는 연구가 필요할 것으로 보인다.

Objective : This research was conducted to evaluate the method of sasangin classification by voice analysis, The 2 pilot tests were thus designed to solve the following problems: 'What are the conditions at classification for sasangin by the voice analysis?' and 'What are the important variances of /a/ parameter?'. Methods: 122 volunteers Were examined to make a diagnosis of sasangin by QSCC II and they were disease-free and healthy, First, they said /a/ three times for 2 seconds in their usual voice, Second, they said /a/ for 2 seconds by the different ways of high tone, mid tone, and low tone. The sounds were collected by a recording program (cooledit 2000) through a Sony microphone (ecm-26l). We analyzed the voices by maltlab, the simulation tool. Results: There were no differences and were correlations when one said /a/ three times for 2 seconds in the usual voice. There were some things to correlate when one said /a/ three times for 2 seconds by the different ways of high speech, usual speech, and low speech. Others were nothing to correlate. We evaluated the value of sasangin classification method by only /a/ voice analysis. The hit ratio was average $66.3\%\;:\;soyangin\;67.9\%,\;taeumin\;68.0\%,\;soeumin\;63.9\%$. Conclusion: We must set up the conditions to use the method of sasangin classification by voice analysis. The value of sasangin classification method by only fa! voice analysis was a hit ratio of $66.3\%$.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors contributing to the classification of Sasang Constitution using Sasang Constitutional Analysis Tool 2. Methods A total of 99 subjects were assessed for the classification of Sasang Constitution using four measurement factors (face, voice, body shape, and questionnaire information) of Sasang Constitutional Analysis Tool 2. Results Taeeumin had significantly higher body weight and BMI. In the result of the agreement between the judgment of the four measurement factors and the final judgment of Sasang Constitution, the agreement degree of Soeumin was the highest value of 2.6. Taeeumin, Soeumin, and Soyangin showed the highest agreement with the individual judgment of face, body shape and questionnaire, and body shape, respectively. Conclusions It is difficult to conclude that any individual factor contributes significantly to the classification of Sasang Constitution. Further study on Sasang Constitutional Analysis Tool 2 involving more peoples is needed in order to determine the factors contributing to the classification of Sasang Constitution.
