Many developments have been steadily carried out by researchers with applying knowledge-based expert system or machine learning algorithms to the financial field. In particular, it is now common to perform knowledge based system trading in using stock prices. Recently, deep learning technologies have been applied to real fields of stock trading marketplace as GPU performance and large scaled data have been supported enough. Especially, LSTM has been tried to apply to stock price prediction because of its compatibility for time series data. In this paper, we implement stock price prediction using LSTM. In modeling of LSTM, we propose a fitness combination of model parameters and activation functions for best performance. Specifically, we propose suitable selection methods of initializers of weights and bias, regularizers to avoid over-fitting, activation functions and optimization methods. We also compare model performances according to the different selections of the above important modeling considering factors on the real-world stock price data of global major companies. Finally, our experimental work brings a fitness method of applying LSTM model to stock price prediction.

Water leak detection system is a system based on wireless sensor networks(WSNs) which detect a leak on water supply, localize the leak position and finally inform a water management center. A traditional leak detection method is to use experienced personnel who walk along a pipeline listening to the sound that is generated by the leaks and their effectiveness depend on the experience of the user. Also making more successful detection, it should be processed at middle of the night when people do not use water, as the result users have to operate the leak detection system at midnight. In this paper, we propose a new method for the water leak detection system based on the WSNs and describe it in detail. Leak detection devices which detect a leakage of water transmit and receive the result of water leak detection with each other by configuring WSNs to improve reliability of the detection result. Also, we analyzed the sound from water flowed in pipeline, proposed the pre-signal processing to separate a leakage sound from noisy sound. And lastly, It is especially important to make a time synchronization with water leak detection devices that are installed on the pipeline, we used 1PPS(1 Pulse Per Second) signal generated by GPS, therefore we could get a precise time synchronization. The proposed system set up in Namyangju and performances were evaluated.

Purpose The conventional solution methods for production scheduling problems typically focus on the active schedules, which result in short makespans. However, the active schedules are more difficult to generate than the semi active schedules. In other words, semi active schedule based search strategy may help to reduce the computational costs associated with production scheduling. In this context, this paper aims to compare the performances of active schedule based and semi active schedule based search methods for production scheduling problems. Design/methodology/approach Two decoding approaches, active schedule decoding and semi active schedule decoding, are introduced in this paper, and they are used to implement genetic algorithms for classical job shop scheduling problem. The permutation representation is adopted by the genetic algorithms, and the decoding approaches are used to obtain a feasible schedule from a sequence of given operations. Findings The semi active schedule based genetic algorithm requires slightly more iterations in order to find the optimal schedule, while its execution time is quite shorter than active schedule based genetic algorithm. Moreover, the operations of semi active schedule decoding is easy to understand and implement. Consequently, this paper concludes that semi active schedule based search methods also can be useful if effective search strategies are given.

In 3-dimensional (3D) integrated package, thermal management is one of the critical issues due to the high heat flux generated by stacked multi-functional chips in miniature packages. In this study, we used numerical simulation method to analyze the thermal behaviors, and investigated the thermal issues of 3D package using TSV (through-silicon-via) technology for mobile application. The 3D integrated package consists of up to 8 TSV memory chips and one logic chip with a interposer which has regularly embedded TSVs. Thermal performances and characteristics of glass and silicon interposers were compared. Thermal characteristics of logic and memory chips are also investigated. The effects of numbers of the stacked chip, size of the interposer and TSV via on the thermal behavior of 3D package were investigated. Numerical analysis of the junction temperature, thermal resistance, and heat flux for 3D TSV package was performed under normal operating and high performance operation conditions, respectively. Based on the simulation results, we proposed an effective integration scheme of the memory and logic chips to minimize the temperature rise of the package. The results will be useful of design optimization and provide a thermal design guideline for reliable and high performance 3D TSV package.

Purpose Since human brains catch images faster than texts or numbers, infographics has been widely used in business in the form of "information dashboard" to enhance the efficiency of decision-making. Groupware, however, has neglected the adoption and use of infographics, in particular, in the idea generation process. Given that an overall performance of groupware-based idea generation is no better than that of the (paper-and-pencil-based) Nominal Group Technique, Jung et al. (2010) adopted the notion of infographics in the form of performance feedback to solve the productivity paradox. With the consistent results, which demonstrate beneficial effects of infographics on performance enhancement, an interesting observation that groups with the bar chart treatment performed better than groups with the dot chart treatment was made. The main purpose of this study was to find if there were a performance consistency between the outcomes from the previous study and the outcomes from the current study. Design/methodology/approach In experiment 1, we employed the same system used in the previous study (i.e., Jung et al., 2010). As individuals' contributions accumulated, the mechanism visually displayed individuals' performances two-dimensionally in the form of a bar chart or a dot chart. Then, we compared the performance outcomes from this study to the outcomes from previous study (i.e., Jung et al., 2010). In experiment 2, we modified the performance graph to test the effect of "playfulness" on performance by converting dots to car images. Then, we compared the performance outcome from experiment 2 to the outcomes from experiment 1. Findings Just like our interesting (and unexpected) finding in Jung et al.'s study (2010), the outcome confirmed a consistent superior performance of a bar chart. This implies that a bar chart is a better choice when stimulating performance with a visual aid in the context of groupware-based idea generation. Although a bar chart was criticized in a way that errors of length-area judgments are 40 ~ 250% greater than those of positional judgments along a common scale, such illusion turned out to be facilitating upward performance comparison better. Regarding Experiment 2, the outcome showed that the revised-dot graph is as good as the bar graph in terms of quantity and quality score of ideas. We attribute the performance enhancement of the resized-dot to the interaction between the motivational characteristic and the situational characteristic of playfulness because individuals in the revised-dot graph treatment performed better than individuals in the dot graph treatment. Given the order of performance (Bar >= Revised Dot > Dot) that the revised-dot treatment performed the same as (or lower than) the bar treatment, an additional research is warranted to reach to a consistent outcome.

The study conducted the measurement of RTK-GPS with changing the number of observation as the method to differ reference stations of RTK-GPS. Also it aimed to suggest an effective application plan for cadastral surveying based on the accuracy analysis accordingly. According to the result of selecting the study region, observing with different reference stations, and comparing with previous TS performance, the 1st reference station was calculated as ${\pm}0.024m$ for x-coordinate's RMSE and ${\pm}0.029m$ for y-coordinate's RMSE, and the 2nd reference station was calculated as ${\pm}0.040m$ for x-coordinate's RMSE and ${\pm}0.029m$ for y-coordinate's RMSE. All these results (the 1st and the 2nd reference stations) are allowed as acceptable performance within the margin of error according to the existing cadastral regulations, and there was no significant difference between two performances. Therefore, unless there was no problem in receiving GPS satellite data, it would be possible to secure stable performance enough with 1 observation. Depending on surveying environment that has possible problems in receiving data, however, 2 or more observations would be necessary to secure stable performance.

Korean high speed train(HSR-350x) has adopted a combined electrical and mechanical(friction) braking system. Brake blending control unit(BBCU) controls each brake system to fulfill the required brake performances such as braking distance, deceleration and jerk. Also the braking system should be designed considering the economical management, such as effective use of generated braking energy and the minimum wear of friction materials(a pad and a brake shoe). In this paper, we establish the disc braking force pattern that reduces the wear of pad in the disc braking system by minimizing the variance of the instantaneous disk baking energy during braking time, and compare the wear mass of pad between the conventional disc braking force pattern and the established results.
