  • In order to estimate parameter uncertainty of hydrological models, the consideration of the likelihood functions which provide reliable parameters of model is necessary. In this study, the Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method with informal likelihood functions is used to analyze the uncertainty of parameters of the SURR model for estimating the hourly streamflow of Gunnam station of Imjin basin, Korea. Three events were used to calibrate and one event was used to validate the posterior distributions of parameters. Moreover, the performance of four informal likelihood functions (Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency, Normalized absolute error, Index of agreement, and Chiew-McMahon efficiency) on uncertainty of parameter is assessed. The indicators used to assess the uncertainty of the streamflow simulation were P-factor (percentage of observed streamflow included in the uncertainty interval) and R-factor (the average width of the uncertainty interval). The results showed that the sensitivities of parameters strongly depend on the likelihood functions and vary for different likelihood functions. The uncertainty bounds illustrated the slight differences from various likelihood functions. This study confirms the importance of the likelihood function selection in the application of Bayesian MCMC to the uncertainty assessment of the SURR model.

  • In this paper, a global path generation method is suggested using multiple grid maps connected with the mission type of unmanned combat vehicle(UCV). In order to carry out a mission for UCV, it is essential to find a global path which is coincident with the characteristics of the mission. This can be done by considering various combat circumstances represented as grid maps such as velocity map, threat map and communication map. Cost functions of multiple grid maps are linearly combined and normalized to them simultaneously for the path generation. The proposed method is realized using $A^*$, a well known search algorithm, and cost functions are normalized in the ratio of the traverse time which is one of critical information should be provided with the operators using the velocity map. By the experiments, it is checked found global paths match with the mission type by reflecting input data of grid maps properly and the computation time is short enough to regenerate paths in real time as combat circumstances change.

  • For classification problems on mixture distribution, a threshold based on cost functions is optimal from the viewpoint of a minimum expected cost. Assuming that there is no cost information, we propose cost ratios in the expected cost corresponding to thresholds where the total accuracy and the true rate are maximized to explain the relation of these cost ratios minimizing the expected cost. Other cost ratios are also proposed by comparing the normalized expected costs when classification accuracy is maximized. The values of these cost ratios are located between two cost ratios for the expected costs based on classification accuracies, and converge to that of the minimum expected cost. This work suggests two cost ratios: one is minimized by the expected cost and the normalized expected cost, and the other in the expected cost and the normalized expected cost functions that are maximized classification accuracies. We discuss their compatibility based on the relation of these cost ratios.

  • A local alignment algorithm does comparing two strings and finding a substring pair with size l and similarity s. To find a pair with both sufficient size and high similarity, existing normalization approaches maximize the ratio of the similarity to the size. In this paper, we introduce normalization by functions that maximizes f(s)/g(l), where f and g are non-decreasing functions. These functions, f and g, are determined by experiments comparing DNA sequences. In the experiments, our normalization by functions finds appropriate local alignments. For the previous algorithm, which evaluates the similarity by using the longest common subsequence, we show that the algorithm can also maximize the score normalized by functions, f(s)/g(l) without loss of time.

Proposal of Predictive Equations of Normalized Shear Modulus and Damping Ratio Curves for Loose Medium Sand Reinforced by Vinyl Strip-cement (비닐스트립-시멘트로 보강된 느슨한 중간 모래의 정규화 전단탄성계수 및 감쇠비 곡선 산정식 제안)

  • In this study, predictive equations of the normalized shear modulus and the damping ratio curves for loose medium sands reinforced by vinyl strip-cement are proposed. Based on the results of a series of resonant-column tests (Yu, et al., 2018) conducted under the confining stresses of 15, 30, 60 kPa on sand specimens prepared with 40% relative density and reinforced by various contents of vinyl strip (0.0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.4%) and cement (0, 1, 2%), the equations estimating the normalized shear modulus and the damping ratio are proposed as functions of reinforcing conditions and confining stresses. The comparison between predicted and measured values of shear modulus and damping ratio shows a good agreement and the reliability of proposed predictive equations are validated by high R2-value greater than 0.9. Therefore, it is expected that the time and the cost required for constructing the normalized shear modulus and the damping ratio curves will be much reduced by using proposed equations in this study since those can easily be estimated without conducting resonant-column test.

  • This paper reports the first known free vibration data for thin rectangular plates with V-notches. The classical Ritz method is employed with two sets of admissible functions assumed for the transverse vibratory displacements. These sets include (1) mathematically complete algebraic-trigonometric polynomials which guarantee convergence to exact frequencies as sufficient terms are retained, and (2) corner functions which account for the bending moment singularities at the sharp reentrant corner of the Y-notch. Extensive convergence studies summarized herein confirm that the corner functions substantially enhance the convergence and accuracy of nondirectional frequencies for rectangular plates having the V-notch. In this paper, accurate frequencies and normalized contours of vibratory transverse displacement are presented for various notched plates, so that the effect of corner stress singularities may be understood.

  • A new interactive multiobjective decision making technique, which is called the fuzzy sequential proxy optimization technique, has been proposed. This technique is the revised version the sequential proxy optimization technique that the decision-maker's marginal rates of substitution is interpreted as type of L-R fuzzy numbers. It used to the square of normalized scalar product as the doptimalilry condition. However, this technique ignores the imprecise nature of a decision-maker's judgement of marginal rates of substitution. Also, it have a shortcoming that can be only applied over three objective functions. In this paper, considering the imprecise nature of a decision-maker's judgement, we presents an interactive fuzzy decision-making method on the basis of the decision-maker's MRS presented through the use of five types of membership functions including non-linear functions. FORTRAN programs that run in conversational mode are developed to implement man-machine interactive procedure.

  • For $1{\leq}{\alpha}<2$, let $\mathcal{F}({\alpha})$ denote the class of locally univalent normalized analytic functions $f(z)=z+{\Sigma}_{n=2}^{\infty}{a_nz^n}$ in the unit disk ${\mathbb{D}}=\{z{\in}{\mathbb{C}}:{\left|z\right|}<1\}$ satisfying the condition $Re\(1+{\frac{zf^{{\prime}{\prime}}(z)}{f^{\prime}(z)}}\)>{\frac{{\alpha}}{2}}-1$. In the present paper, we shall obtain the sharp upper bound for Fekete-$Szeg{\ddot{o}}$ functional $|a_3-{\lambda}a_2^2|$ for the complex parameter ${\lambda}$.
