나이브베이즈분류기($na\ddot{i}ve$ Bayes classifier)는 학습, 적용 및 계산자원 이용의 측면에서 매우 효율적인 모델이다. 또한, 그 분류 성능 역시 다른 기법에 비해 크게 떨어지지 않음이 다양한 실험을 통해 보여져 왔다. 특히, 데이터를 생성한 실제 확률분포를 나이브베이즈분류기가 정확하게 표현할 수 있는 경우에는 최대의 효과를 볼 수 있다. 하지만, 실제 확률분포에 존재하는 조건부독립성(conditional independence)이 나이브베이즈분류기의 구조와 일치하지 않는 경우에는 성능이 하락할 수 있다. 보다 구체적으로, 각 자질변수(feature variable)들 사이에 확률적 의존관계(probabilistic dependency)가 존재하는 경우 성능 하락은 심화된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 나이브베이즈분류기의 약점을 효율적으로 해결할 수 있는 자질변수의 통합기법을 제시한다. 자질변수의 통합은 각 변수들 사이의 관계를 명시적으로 표현해 주는 방법이며, 특히 상호정보량(mutual information)에 기반한 통합 변수의 선정이 성능 향상에 크게 기여함을 실험을 통해 보인다.

Navigation in 3D virtual environment(VE) is very difficult because the virtual environment is lack information than real 3D world. So navigation is import research subject in 3D VE. In this paper, we study tour path setting method using spline curve. The spline curve is augmented polynomial function. So the curve is differentiable. In particular, since the curves which are order of 2 and 3 are second order differentiable those are sufficiently smooth for using the computer graphics and CAD system.

This work defines user intention according to intention range, and also proposes an interactive sound installation which reflects and varies above features. User intention consists of several decomposition concepts, which are elemental intentions, partial intentions, and a universal intention. And also, each concept is defined as inclusion/affiliation relationship with other concepts. For the representation of elemental intention, we implemented an musical interface, Color note, which represents the colors and notes according to response of participants. We also propose Harmonic Defragmentation (HD), which arranges the partial intentions with harmonic rule. Finally, the universal intention is inferred to the comprehensive direction of elemental intentions. We used Karhunen-Lo$\`{e}$ve(K-L) Transform for the inference. For verifying the validity of our proposed interface, the "Color Note," and the various techniques, we installed our work and surveyed various users for the evaluation of HD and statistical techniques. Also, we commissioned another survey to find out satisfaction measurement which was used for expressing universal intention.

Geotechnical engineering problems are characterized by many sources of uncertainty. Some of these sources are connected to the uncertainties of soil properties involved in the analysis. In this paper, a numerical procedure for a probabilistic analysis that considers the spatial variability of soil properties is presented to study the response of spatially random soil. The approach integrates a commercial finite difference method and random field theory into the framework of a probabilistic analysis. Two-dimensional non-Gaussian random fields are generated based on a Karhunen-$Lo{\grave{e}}ve$ expansion in a fashion consistent with a specified marginal distribution function and an autocorrelation function. A Monte Carlo simulation is then used to determine the statistical response based on the random fields. A series of analyses were performed to study the effects of uncertainty due to the spatial heterogeneity on the settlement and bearing capacity of a rough strip footing. The simulations provide insight into the application of uncertainty treatment to the geotechnical problem and show the importance of the spatial variability of soil properties with regard to the outcome of a probabilistic assessment.

As an impactive factor on industries and national economy, The Social Overhead Capital(SOC) is major factor to determine the national competitiveness and the investment of SOC is essential for its economic growth. Accordingly, introduction of the preliminary feasibility study and establishment of legal institutionalization and evaluation system has been carried out and reviewed since 1999. Nevertheless of these efforts, basic problems such as lack of scientific method for investment evaluation and loss of effectiveness on feasibility studies are continuously being brought up. Moreover, as the preliminary study to improve the mentioned problems is mainly focused on the economic and estimated demand analysis, the study of policy analysis, the most important phase during a feasibility study, is still insufficient. Therefore, in this paper, a quantitative decision-making model, to which the performance assessment method of Value Engineering(VE) is applied, is developed and proposed to improve the policy analysis of (preliminary) feasibility study that requires combining with relative studies, to induce quantitative analysis method, and to contribute the improvement of value on the political aspect for SOC investment goals and use as a strategic decision-making method by systematic analysis.

Muscle force produced by muscle fibers is transmitted to bones via tendinous structures(aponeuroses and tendon), resulting in joint(s) movement. As force-transmitting elements, mechanical behavior of aponeuroses and tendon are closely related with the function of muscle-tendon complex. The purpose of this study was to determine strain characteristics of aponeuroses for in-vivo human soleus muscle during submaximal voluntary contractions using an advanced medical imaging technique, velocity-encoded phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (VE-PC MRI). VE-PC MRI of the soleus muscle-tendon complex was acquired during submaximal isometric plantarflexion contraction-relaxation cycle (n = 7), using 3.0T Trio MRI scanner(Siemens AG, Malvern, MA). From the VE-PC MRI containing the tissue velocity in superior-inferior direction, twenty regions of interest(20 ROI; 10 on the anterior aponeurosis and 10 on the posterior aponeurosis) were tracked. During the isometric plantarflexion contraction-relaxation cycle, velocity and displacement profiles were different between the anterior and posterior aponeuroses, indicating heterogeneous strain behavior along the length of the leg. The anterior aponeurosis elongated while the posterior aponeurosis shortened during the initial phase of the contraction. Moreover, strain behavior of the posterior aponeurosis was different from that of the Achilles tendon. Possible explanation for the observed variations in strain behavior of aponeuroses was investigated with morphological assessment of the soleus muscle and it was found that the intramuscular tendinous structures significantly vary among subjects. In conclusion, the heterogeneous mechanical behavior of the soleus aponeuroses and the Achilles tendon suggests that the complexity of skeletal muscle-tendon complex should be taken into consideration when modeling the complex for better understanding of its functions.

In this paper, a numerical procedure of probabilistic slope stability analysis that considers the spatial variability of soil properties is presented. The procedure extends the deterministic analysis based on the limit equilibrium method of slices to a probabilistic approach that accounts for the uncertainties and spatial variation of the soil parameters. Making no a priori assumptions about the critical failure surface like the Random Finite Element Method (RFEM), the approach saves the amount of solution time required to perform the analysis. Two-dimensional random fields are generated based on a Karhunen-Lo$\grave{e}$ve expansion in a fashion consistent with a specified marginal distribution function and an autocorrelation function. A Monte Carlo simulation is then used to determine the statistical response based on the random fields. A series of analyses were performed to verify the application potential of the proposed method and to study the effects of uncertainty caused by the spatial heterogeneity on the stability of slope. The results show that the proposed method can efficiently consider the various failure mechanisms caused by the spatial variability of soil property in the probabilistic slope stability assessment.

In comparison with edge-emitting lasers(EELs), predicting the output power and slope efficiency of Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers(VCSELs) is very difficult due to the absorption loss in DBR layers. However, by using transfer matrix method(TMM), we've made possible to calculate such parameters of multi-layer structures like VCSELs. In this paper, we've calculated the threshold gain, threshold current and slope efficiency through the methodology based on TMM. Also TMM is the way of customizing the VCSEL structure for the desired threshold current and slope efficiency by changing the number of DBR mirror layers.
