An extensive database has been constructed of reinforced concrete (RC) beam-column connection tests subjected to cyclic lateral loading. All cases within the database experienced joint shear failure, either in conjunction with or without yielding of longitudinal beam reinforcement. Using the experimental database, envelope curves of joint shear stress vs. joint shear strain behavior have been created by connecting key points such as cracking, yielding, and peak loading. Various prediction approaches for RC joint shear behavior are discussed using the constructed experimental database. RC joint shear strength and deformation models are first presented using the database in conjunction with a Bayesian parameter estimation method, and then a complete model applicable to the full range of RC joint shear behavior is suggested. An RC joint shear prediction model following a U.S. standard is next summarized and evaluated. Finally, a particular joint shear prediction model using basic joint shear resistance mechanisms is described and for the first time critically assessed.

A performance prediction method is presented for single(double) suction centrifugal pumps with a review of loss correlations given in the previous open literature. Most of the loss analyses mentioned in the present study are one dimensional and this paper investigates several modeling schemes and shows that a fairly good prediction can be achieved by a proper selection of the most important flow parameters resulting from a mean streamline analysis. Predictions of the trends of total head- capacity and pump efficiency-capacity curves agree well with the experimental data in almost the full range of operating conditions. The prediction method developed through this study can serve as a tool to ensure good matching between parts and it can assist the understanding of the operational characteristics of general purpose centrifugal pumps.

In this Paper, a flashover prediction method using the leakage current in the contaminated EPDM distribution polymer insulator is proposed. The leakage currents on the insulator were measured simultaneously with the different salt fog application such as 25g, 50g, and 75g per liter of deionized water. Then, the measured leakage currents were enveloped and transformed as the CDFS using the Hilbert transform and the level crossing rate, respectively. The obtained CDFS having different gradients(angles) were used as a important factor for the flashover prediction of the contaminated polymer insulator. Thus, the average angle change with an identical salt fog concentration was within a range of 20 degrees, and the average angle change among the different salt fog concentrations was 5 degrees. However, it is hard to be distinguished each other because the gradient differences among the CDFS were very small. So, the new weighting value was defined and used to solve this problem. Through simulation, it Is verified that the proposed method has the capability of the flashover prediction.

본 논문에서는 비디오 압축에서 성능의 중요한 요소인 움직임 예측을 위한 고속 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존의 고속 움직임 예측 방법들은 연산량 감축으로 인하여 프레임에 따라 심각한 예측화질 저하의 문제점과 여전히 많은 연산량의 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 전영역 탐색기반의 방법에 비하여 예측화질은 거의 같게 유지하면서 불필요한 계산량을 현저히 줄이는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 움직임 벡터의 확률분포를 이용하여 탐색영역을 중요도 별로 나누고 적응적인 매칭기준을 이용하여 예측화질은 유지하면서 불필요한 계산만을 줄일 수 있는 방법이다. 제안한 알고리즘은 기존의 전영역 탐색방법과 비교하여 예측 화질의 저하가 0.01dB 이하이며, 사용되는 계산량은 3~5%이내이다. 제안한 알고리즘은 MPEG-4 AVC 및 H.265를 이용하는 실시간 비디오 압축 응용분야에 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.

제주 지방 기상청을 대상으로 하는 지역 규모 단시간 수치예보 시스템을 구축하였다. 기상청 본청에서 하루 2회 제공되는 30 km해상도의 수치예보 자료로는 지방 기상청의 예보관들이 우리 나라와 같이 복잡한 지형에서 발생하는 그 지역의 국지 악기상을 파악하기에는 무리가 있다. 지역 규모의 고해상도 수치예보를 위해 LAPS와 MM5를 자료분석과 예보 모델로 이용하였다. LAPS는 양질의 수치예보 초기자료를 생산해 내기 위해 종관 관측 자료뿐만 아니라 위성 및 레이더 등의 비 종관 관측자료도 자료동화에 이용한다. MM5 모델은 16노드의 펜티엄 PC로 구성된 클러스터에서 수행되었으며 이 시스템은 분산병렬 클러스터 컴퓨터로 가격대비 성능이 매우 우수한 미니 슈퍼컴퓨터이다. 자료동화 모델, 수치예보 모델 그리고 PC-클러스터를 종합한 지역 규모 단시간 수치예보 시스템을 한라 단시간 예측 시스템이라 명명하였으며 이 시스템은 현재 제주 지방 기상청에서 독자적으로 운영되고 있다. 기상청 본청에서 제공되는 수치예보 정보로는 탐지할 수 없었던 1999년 7월 9일 제주 지역의 집중호우 사례에 대하여 본 시스템을 검증한 결과 모델이 예측한 강수량이 실제 강수량을 잘 재현하였다. 한라 단시간 예측 시스템은 2000년 4월부터 하루 4회 제주 지방기상청에서 독자적으로 운영되고 있다.

In this paper, we propose a probabilistic framework to predict the interaction probability of proteins. The notion of domain combination and domain combination pair is newly introduced and the prediction model in the framework takes domain combination pair as a basic unit of protein interactions to overcome the limitations of the conventional domain pair based prediction systems. The framework largely consists of prediction preparation and service stages. In the prediction preparation stage, two appearance pro-bability matrices, which hold information on appearance frequencies of domain combination pairs in the interacting and non-interacting sets of protein pairs, are constructed. Based on the appearance probability matrix, a probability equation is devised. The equation maps a protein pair to a real number in the range of 0 to 1. Two distributions of interacting and non-interacting set of protein pairs are obtained using the equation. In the prediction service stage, the interaction probability of a protein pair is predicted using the distributions and the equation. The validity of the prediction model is evaluated fur the interacting set of protein pairs in Yeast organism and artificially generated non-interacting set of protein pairs. When 80% of the set of interacting protein pairs in DIP database are used as foaming set of interacting protein pairs, very high sensitivity(86%) and specificity(56%) are achieved within our framework.

As the occurrence of a crime is dependent on different factors, their correlations are beyond the ordinary cognitive range. Owing to this limitation, systems face difficulty in correlating various factors, thereby requiring the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI) to overcome such limitations. Therefore, AI has become indispensable for crime prediction. Crimes can cause severe and irrevocable damage to a society. Recently, big data has been introduced for developing highly accurate models for crime prediction. Prediction of night crimes should be given significant consideration, because crimes primarily occur during nights, when the spatiotemporal characteristics become vulnerable to crimes. Many environmental factors that influence crime rate are applied for crime prediction, and their influence on crime rate may differ based on temporal characteristics and the nature of crime. This study aims to identify the environmental factors that influence sex and theft crimes occurring at night and proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) model to predict sex and theft crimes at night in random areas. The crime data of A district in Seoul for 12 years (2004-2015) was used, and environmental factors that influence sex and theft crimes were derived through multiple regression analysis. Two types of crime prediction models were developed: Type A using all environmental factors as input data; Type B with only the significant factors (obtained from regression analysis) as input data. The Type B model exhibited a greater accuracy than Type A, by 3.26 and 9.47 % higher for theft and sex crimes, respectively.

As AI has a wide range of influence on human social life, issues of transparency and ethics of AI are emerging. In particular, it is widely known that due to the existence of historical bias in data against ethics or regulatory frameworks for fairness, trained AI models based on such biased data could also impose bias or unfairness against a certain sensitive group (e.g., non-white, women). Demographic disparities due to AI, which refer to socially unacceptable bias that an AI model favors certain groups (e.g., white, men) over other groups (e.g., black, women), have been observed frequently in many applications of AI and many studies have been done recently to develop AI algorithms which remove or alleviate such demographic disparities in trained AI models. In this paper, we consider a problem of using the information in the sensitive variable for fair prediction when using the sensitive variable as a part of input variables is prohibitive by laws or regulations to avoid unfairness. As a way of reflecting the information in the sensitive variable to prediction, we consider a two-stage procedure. First, the sensitive variable is fully included in the learning phase to have a prediction model depending on the sensitive variable, and then an imputed sensitive variable is used in the prediction phase. The aim of this paper is to evaluate this procedure by analyzing several benchmark datasets. We illustrate that using an imputed sensitive variable is helpful to improve prediction accuracies without hampering the degree of fairness much.

This paper describes a simple prediction method of beach recession induced by storm surge. In order to evaluate the severest beach erosion, it is assumed that maximum beach recession occurs at the coming of storm surge overlapped with spring tide. Consequently, total surge lev디 becomes the sum of storm surge level and tidal range. Generally, storm surge level around Korea is small compared with tidal range. Therefore total surge can be expressed as the series of surges, which have same duration as tide. Through the case studies, the author Investigates correlation between tidal range, duration, wave condition, beach slope and beach recession.
