  • This study describes design and development techniques of estimation models for process modeling. One case study is undertaken to design a model using standard gas furnace data. Neural networks (NN) and genetic programming (GP) are each employed to model the crucial relationships between input factors and output responses. In the case study, two models were generated by using 70% training data and evaluated by using 30% testing data for genetic programming and neural network modeling. The model performance was compared by using RMSE values, which were calculated based on the model outputs. The average RMSE for training and testing were 0.8925 (training) and 0.9951 (testing) for the NN model, and 0.707227 (training) and 0.673150 (testing) for the GP model, respectively. As concern the results, the NN model has a strong advantage in model training (using the all data for training), and the GP model appears to have an advantage in model testing (using the separated data for training and testing). The performance reproducibility of the GP model is good, so this approach appears suitable for modeling physical fabrication processes.

  • Proficiency testing by interlaboratory comparisons is used to determine the performance of individual laboratories. In order to verify the quality of acute toxicity testing with Daphnia magna, National Institute of Environmental Research in South Korea is regularly organizing interlaboratory comparisons to estimate the analytical accuracy of different laboratories. Total 58 laboratories located in South Korea took part in interlaboratory proficiency testing scheme with three proficiency testing samples. TU(Toxic Unit) values of each laboratory were determined and robust z-score was calculated in order to evaluate the proficiency levels. Based on the robust z-score classification, 74% of the participant laboratories showed a satisfactory performance (43 laboratories). The main reason of 'unsatisfactory' performance seemed to be considered that the unsuitable management of test organism incubation system and the lack of experience on the identification of the test organism condition by effect of toxicity.

  • Currently the number of COVID-19 cases is increasing rapidly around the world. One way to restrict the spread of COVID-19 infection is to find confirmed cases using rapid diagnosis. The previously proposed group testing problem assumed without measurement noise, but recently, false positive and false negative cases have occurred during COVID-19 testing. In this paper, we define the noisy group testing problem and analyze how much measurement noise affects the performance. In this paper, we show that the group testing system should be designed to be less susceptible to measurement noise when conducting group testing with a low positive rate of COVID-19 infection. And compared with other developed reconstruction algorithms, our proposed algorithm shows superior performance in noisy group testing.

  • This study analysed testing method for performance verification in the phase of signalling system development for application in the Light Rail Transit(LRT). The main focus in this study therefore includes development of vehicle location detection system by first GPS and analysis of performance verification method by field testing. The comprehensive testing method has been analysed for the signalling system for LRT high speed operation. The signalling system for LRT high speed operation deals with vehicle location identification through vehicle location information using the second GPS and decision for whether the high speed proceed signal and departure inhibition output is feasible or not and for signalling output to the corresponding vehicle.

  • The electrodes for Phosphoric Acid Fuel Ceil were fabricated as a condition of PTFE contents in electrocatalyst layer and sintering temperature in the range of 25 -- 65 wt% and 310 -- $390^{\circ}C$, respectively. For the fabricated electrode, the accelation testing of cathode half cell at open circuit potential was investigated. While the performance of electrode showed maximum at the low level of PTFE contents in the initial stage of accelation testing, the maximum performance was shifted to higher PTFE contents of 45wt% after 24hrs accelation testing.

  • In this paper, we present the methodology of performance testing for web based university resource planning systems. The methodology contains an adequate procedure and workload assessment method. We execute real performance testing to the university resource system during system test stage. To verify the adequacy of the methodology, We compare the result between testing system's hardware utilization and operating system's. The result is nearly the same. Empirical experiments are also shown.

  • The computer application on embedded system is recently more increased in accordance of the development of computer technology. In this trend, the depending of SW in embedded system, especially railway signaling system, is being increased further. So the testing for the safety of railway signaling system software became more important. Hence, the safety assurance of the vital software on the railway signaling system is very important but yet, not many works have been done. In this paper, we represented the implementation results of development of performance testing tool in railway signaling system. The implemented testing item had referred to the international standards in relation to the software for railway system, such as IEC 61508 and IEC 62279.

  • Shake table testing has been regarded as one of the most effective experimental approaches to evaluate seismic response of structural systems subjected to earthquakes. However, reproducing a prescribed acceleration time history precisely over the frequency of interest is challenging because shake table test systems are eventually nonlinear by nature. In addition, interaction between the table and specimen could affect the control accuracy of shake table testing significantly. Various novel control algorithms have been proposed to improve the control accuracy of shake table testing; however, reference values for control performance assessment remain rare. In this study, reference values for control performance assessment of shake table testing are specified based on the statistical analyses of 1,209 experimental data provided by the Seismic Simulator Laboratory of National Center for Research on Earthquake Engineering in Taiwan. Three individual reference values are considered for the assessment including the root-mean-square error of the achieved acceleration time history; the percentage of the spectral acceleration that exceeds the determined tolerance range over the frequency of interest; and the error-ratio of the achieved peak ground acceleration. Quartiles of the real experimental data in terms of the three objective variables are obtained, providing users with solid and simple references to evaluate the control performance of shake table testing. Finally, a set of experimental data of a newly developed control framework implementation for uni-axial shake tables are used as an application example to demonstrate the significant improvement of control accuracy according to the reference values provided in this study.

  • A testing inspection is one of the important in the industry, owing to determine the reliability and directivity of testing inspection results. Therefore, the quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) work which performed by personnel not directly in the inventory compilation development, in testing inspection must be thoroughly considered. Some agencies for environmental test inspection, they sometimes misunderstood that the QA/QC was ended with proficiency testing performance and on-site assessment by a director. Thus, results were often calculated without QA/QC work by self manual when conducting test. The objective of this study was to improve reliability of testing and inspection agency through the QA/QC case study which basically performed to raising reliability of testing and inspection agency. In this study, it increased reliability of result by verifying calibration curve (IC, ICV, CCV), blank, accuracy (LCS, MS) and precision as QA/QC performance, while performing investigation of soil contamination in mining areas. This study suggests that reliability establishing method of test result and management method of analysis process, through the QA/QC instance of testing agency.
