본 연구는 오디오 및 이미지 정보가 비동시적으로 결합된 오디오/이미지 요약이 오디오 요약 또는 이미지 요약만 사용했을 때 보다 어떤 상호 작용 효과를 가지고 있는지 살펴보았다. 이를 위해서 오디오/이미지 요약, 오디오 요약 및 이미지 요약을 비디오의 의미 추출에 있어서의 정확도 즉, 요약문 및 항목 선택의 정확도와 이용자들의 이 세 가지 요약에 대한 관점을 비교, 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 요약문 정확도에서는 비디오 유형에 관계없이 상호작용 효과를 확인하였으나 항목 선택의 정확도에서는 상호 작용 효과가 입증되지 못했다. 끝으로 이용자들은 오디오/이미지 요약에 대해 오디오와 이미지 정보를 병행하여 시청함으로서 비디오 내용에 대한 이해를 빠르게 하지만 때로는 이 두 정보간의 비동시성으로 인하여 비디오 의미 파악을 방해하는 경우도 생겨난다고 기술하였다.

본 연구에서는 12개의 표본 비디오 집단과 14명의 피조사자들을 이용하여 영상 초록 및 전체 클립 보기를 통한 색인어 및 요약문 추출의 정확도를 측정해 보았다. 측정결과 첫째, 비디오 유형에 따라 정확도가 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며 이는 이미지에 주로 의존하여 정보를 표출하는 비디오의 경우 텍스트 초록만으로 의미 파악을 하기에는 한계가 있으며 텍스트 초록이 영상 초록과 함께 사용되었을 때 시너지 효과를 낼 수 있음을 보여주고 있다. 둘째, 영상초록의 색인어 및 요약문 정확도가 전체 클립의 정확도 보다 떨어지지만 절반치에 근접한 것으로 나타나 영상 초록이 비디오 의미 추출에 효율적으로 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 영상 초록의 색인어 정확도(0.45)가 요약문 정확도(0.40) 보다더 높게 나타나 영상초록을 통해서 색인어 추출 작업을 더 효율적으로 할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 실험결과에 기초하여 영상 초록이 색인어 또는 요약문 추출 작업에 활용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 디지털도서관 환경에서 텍스트 초록과 같은 다른 메타데이터 요소들과 함께 사용된다면 이용자의 적합성 판정을 좀 더 용이하게 할 것이며, 더 나아가 영상 질의의 매칭 자료로도 이용될 수 있음을 제안하였다. 끝으로 영상 초록의 품질을 높이기 위한 키프레임 추출 알고리즘 및 키프레임 배열 모형 설계 등 후속 연구에 대해서 제언하였다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the geometric accuracy of thoracic anatomic landmarks as target surrogates of intrapulmonary tumors for manual rigid registration during image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). Methods: Kilovolt cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images acquired during IGRT for 29 lung cancer patients with 33 tumors, including 16 central and 17 peripheral lesions, were analyzed. We selected the "vertebrae", "carina", and "large bronchi" as the candidate surrogates for central targets, and the "vertebrae", "carina", and "ribs" as the candidate surrogates for peripheral lesions. Three to six pairs of small identifiable markers were noted in the tumors for the planning CT and Day 1 CBCT. The accuracy of the candidate surrogates was evaluated by comparing the distances of the corresponding markers after manual rigid matching based on the "tumor" and a particular surrogate. Differences between the surrogates were assessed using 1-way analysis of variance and post hoc least-significant-difference tests. Results: For central targets, the residual errors increased in the following ascending order: "tumor", "bronchi", "carina", and "vertebrae"; there was a significant difference between "tumor" and "vertebrae" (p = 0.010). For peripheral diseases, the residual errors increased in the following ascending order: "tumor", "rib", "vertebrae", and "carina"; There was a significant difference between "tumor" and "carina" (p = 0.005). Conclusions: The "bronchi" and "carina" are the optimal surrogates for central lung targets, while "rib" and "vertebrae" are the optimal surrogates for peripheral lung targets for manual matching of online and planned tumors.

Production of cloned pigs by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) has unlimited value for developing critical biotechnology such as xenotransplantation. Various efforts have been made to establish this technology, and several litters of live piglets have been produced after transfer of SCNT embryos. However, the efficiency is very low compared to piglet production by artificial insemination or natural mating. So far, most studies have been limited to in vitro production of SCNT embryos. This study was conducted to standardize a surrogate recipient (gilts) for transfer of SCNT embryos to improve pregnancy rate. Potential surrogate gilts over 7 months of age were checked for their estrous status by observing external signs; vaginal fluid, vulva redness, vulva swelling, and standing response to back pressure. Viscosity of vaginal fluid was evaluated and classified as none (0), medium (1), and strong (2). Vulva redness and swelling was respectively assessed by none or shrink (0), medium (1), strong (2). Back pressure was estimated by an immediate move (0), standing less than 10 sec (1), and standing over 10 see (2). And then ovulation status of each surrogate was classified as pre-ovulation (PO-17 surrogates), just prior to ovulation (JPO-20 surrogates), in ovulation (IO-12 surrogates), just after ovulation (JAO-14 surrogates) and after ovulation (AO-24 surrogates) at the time of surgery for embryo transfer (ET). Real-time ultrasonographic scanners have been used for pregnancy diagnosis by observing amniotic vesicles. The first pregnancy diagnosis was done on Day 30 after ET and then repeated 2-week interval. In the results, SCNT embryos transferred into JPO surrogates gave better pregnancy rates (45%) than others (4% to 11%) on Day 30 after ET. These result indicates that surrogate gilts in a status just prior to ovulation can offer optimal condition to establish pregnancy by transfer of SCNT pig embryos.

Despite the rapid advancement in computing resources, many real-life design and optimization problems in structural engineering involve huge computation costs. To counter such challenges, approximate models are often used as surrogates for the highly accurate but time intensive finite element models. In this paper, surrogates for first-order shear deformation based finite element models are built using a polynomial regression approach. Using statistical techniques like Box-Cox transformation and ANOVA, the effectiveness of the surrogates is enhanced. The accuracy of the surrogate models is evaluated using statistical metrics like $R^2$, $R^2{_{adj}}$, $R^2{_{pred}}$ and $Q^2{_{F3}}$. By combining these surrogates with nature-inspired multi-criteria decision-making algorithms, namely multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) and multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO), the optimal combination of various design variables to simultaneously maximize fundamental frequency and frequency separation is predicted. It is seen that the proposed approach is simple, effective and good at inexpensively producing a host of optimal solutions.

본 연구에서는 먼저 영상 초록의 배열 모형을 영상물의 소통 구조 이론, FRBR 모형 및 용어간의 구문적 및 어의적 관계를 고려하는 PRECIS 색인 이론 등을 이용하여 설계하고 이 모형에 따라서 영상 초록을 구성한 후 순차적 영상 초록과 요약문과 색인어 추출의 정확도 측면에서 어떤 차이를 보이는지 6개의 표본 비디오와 26명의 피조사자를 이용하여 실험을 통해서 조사해 보았다. 조사 결과, 배열 모형 기반 영상 초록이 순차적 영상 보다 더 정확한 요약문을 추출하는 것으로 나타났고 색인어 추출의 정확도는 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 영상 초록의 반복 보기의 효과를 측정한 결과 순차적 영상 초록을 먼저 보고 배열 모형 영상초록을 반복해서 본 경우에 요약문의 정확도가 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실험 결과에 기초하여 디지털 비디오 도서관 환경에서 영상 초록의 두 가지 활용 방안 즉, OPAC 환경에서 영상 초록의 초기값으로 순차적 영상 초록을 제시하고 선택을 통해서 배열 모형 기반 영상 초록이 함께 출력되는 비디오 브라우징 인터페이스를 구성하는 것과 제안된 배열 모형 기반 영상 초록을 영상 질의의 구조화된 매칭 자료로 활용하는 것에 대해서 제안하였다.

Purpose: This study aimed to understand the mechanisms of decision regret and stress of family surrogates' end-of-life decision making using an exploratory path model. In particular, the research identified the direct effects of perceptions of uncertainty and effective decisions on decision regret and stress, and examined the indirect effects of being informed, having clear values, and being supported for decision regret and the stress of end-of-life decision making through the mediating variables of perceptions of uncertainty and effective decisions. Methods: Data were collected from 102 family surrogates who had participated in end-of-life decision making for patients with terminal cancer in a tertiary hospital. Results: Perception of effective decisions was a significant direct predictor of decision regret, and uncertainty was a significant predictor of stress among the participants. Being informed, having clear values, and being supported had a significant indirect influence on decision regret through the perception of effective decisions among family surrogates. However, only having clear values had a significant indirect influence on stress through the perception of uncertainty. The model explained 63.0% of decision regret and 20.0% of stress among the participants and showed a good fit with the data, ${\chi}^2=12.40$ (df=8, p=.134), TLI=.97, and RMSEA=.07. Conclusion: Nurses can support family surrogates in end-of-life decision-making processes to decrease their decision regret by providing information about end-of-life care choices, clarifying personal values, and supporting the decision-making process, and to relieve their stress by facilitating the clarification of personal values.

Shape optimization of an internal cooling passage with staggered dimples on single surface is performed and performances of surrogates are evaluated in this paper. Optimizations are performed so that turbulent heat transfer can be enhanced compromising with pressure loss due to friction. The three-dimensional governing differential equations have been solved to find the overall Nusselt number and friction factor which are related to the objective functions of this problem. Three design variables were selected among the dimensionless geometric variables. Basic surrogate models such as second order polynomial response surface approximation (RSA), Kriging meta-modeling technique, radial basis neural network (RBNN), and derived press based averaged (PBA) surrogate model are constructed. The optimal points are searched from the above constructed surrogates by sequential quadratic programming (SQP). It is shown that use of multiple surrogates can increase the robustness in prediction of better design with minimum computational cost.

Energy systems working coherently in different conditions may not have a specific design which can provide optimal performance. A system working for a longer period at lower efficiency implies higher energy consumption. In this effort, a methodology demonstrated by a jet pump design and optimization via numerical modeling for fluid dynamics and implementation of an evolutionary algorithm for the optimization shows a reduction in computational costs. The jet pump inherently has a low efficiency because of improper mixing of primary and secondary fluids, and multiple momentum and energy transfer phenomena associated with it. The high fidelity solutions were obtained through a validated numerical model to construct an approximate function through surrogate analysis. Pareto-optimal solutions for two objective functions, i.e., secondary fluid pressure head and primary fluid pressure-drop, were generated through a multi-objective genetic algorithm. For the jet pump geometry, a design space of several design variables was discretized using the Latin hypercube sampling method for the optimization. The performance analysis of the surrogate models shows that the combined surrogates perform better than a single surrogate and the optimized jet pump shows a higher performance. The approach can be implemented in other energy systems to find a better design.

Historically, the en-users' acceptance of the expert systems(ES) have generally been used as a proxy for the ES' implementation success by both practitioners and academicians. However, with regard to bank loan decisions, most loan officers approach the acquisition of an ES with apprehension. In order to overcome this skepticism, more research should focus on the behavioral aspects relate to systems acquisition and usage. This research applied Vroom's(1964) expectancy theory in an effort to predict end-users' motivation to use an ES in a bank loan decision context. Because human behaviors and judgements are nonlinear rather than linear functions, accurately predicting human behavior is very difficult. To increase the prediction power for end-users' motivation to use an ES in a bank loan decision context, this research used an artificial neural network (ANN) model. In this research, an attempt was made to evaluate adequacy of the surrogates by analyzing differences between real bank loan officers and student surrogates in applying expectancy theory to estimate bank loan officers' motivation to use ES in a bank loan decision context.
