  • 모바일 기기에서 얻을 수 있는 로그 데이터는 다수의 유의미한 정보를 담고 있다. 그러나 모바일 기기의 연산능력 제약과 정보 분석 자체의 어려움 등으로 상황정보를 활용한 모바일 에이전트의 구현이 쉽지 않다. 본 논문에서는 제한적인 모바일 플랫폼에서 효율적인 상황인지를 위한 베이지안 네트워크 용용 기법을 제안한다. 베이지안 네트워크는 다수의 세부 모듈로 구성되며, 모듈간 인과성은 가상증거를 통해 보존된다. 각 모듈은 이전 증거값과 추론결과를 저장하고, 현재 증거값과 비교하여 전체 네트워크에 변화를 주는 경우에만 선택적으로 추론을 수행한다. 다양한 수집 주기의 모바일 데이터를 이용한 추론결과의 신뢰성을 높이기 위해 기억감소함수를 이용하여 결과를 보정하는 방법을 살펴본다. 마지막으로 실제 모바일 환경에서의 실험을 통해 제안하는 방법의 유용성을 확인한다.

  • The Bayesian approach can be used to estimate hydrologic model parameters from the prior expert knowledge about the parameter values and the observed data. The purpose of this study was to compare the performance of the two Bayesian methods, the Metropolis-Hastings (MH) algorithm and the Generalized Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) method. These two methods were applied to the TANK model, a hydrological model comprising 13 parameters, to examine the uncertainty of the parameters of the model. The TANK model comprises a combination of multiple reservoir-type virtual vessels with orifice-type outlets and implements a common major hydrological process using the runoff calculations that convert the rainfall to the flow. As a result of the application to the Nam River A watershed, the two Bayesian methods yielded similar flow simulation results even though the parameter estimates obtained by the two methods were of somewhat different values. Both methods ensure the model's prediction accuracy even when the observed flow data available for parameter estimation is limited. However, the prediction accuracy of the model using the MH algorithm yielded slightly better results than that of the GLUE method. The flow duration curve calculated using the limited observed flow data showed that the marginal reliability is secured from the perspective of practical application.

  • 극치사상을 예측하기 위한 기존의 빈도분석 결과의 이용에 대한 많은 문제점들이 부각되고 있다. 특히, 통계적 모형을 이용하기 위해서 흔히 사용되는 점근적 모형 (asymptotic model)의 합리적인 검토 없는 외삽 (extrapolation)은 산정된 확률 값을 과대 또는 과소평가하는 문제를 일으켜, 예측결과에 대한 불확실성을 과다하게 산정함으로써 불확실성에 대한 신뢰도를 감소시키는 문제가 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 국내에서 극치강우사상을 포함한 강우자료의 빈도분석에 대한 연구사례를 제공하고 점근적 모형을 사용하는 경우 발생되는 불확실성을 감소시키기 위한 방법론을 제시하였다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 극치강우사상의 빈도분석을 수행하는 데 있어서 최근 들어 여러 분야에서 다양하게 적용되고 있는 Bayesian MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) 방법을 사용하였으며, 그 결과를 최우추정방법 (Maximum likelihood estimation method)과 비교하였다. 특히 강우사상의 점 빈도분석에 흔히 이용되는 확률밀도함수로 GEV (Generalized Extreme Value) 분포와 Gumbel 분포를 모두 고려하여 두 분포의 결과를 비교하였으며, 이 과정에서 각각의 산정결과 및 불확실성은 근사식을 이용한 최우추정방법과 Bayesian 방법을 이용하여 각각 비교 및 분석되었다.

  • A nuclear power plant can be viewed as a large complex man-machine system where high system reliability is obtained by ensuring that sub-systems are designed to operate at a very high level of performance. The chance of severe accident involving at least partial core-melt is very low but once it happens the consequence is very catastrophic. The prediction of risk in low probability, high-risk incidents must be examined in the contest of general engineering knowledge and operational experience. Engineering knowledge forms part of the prior information that must be quantified and then updated by statistical evidence gathered from operational experience. Recently, Bayesian procedures have been used to estimate rate of accident and to predict future risks. The Bayesian procedure has advantages in that it efficiently incorporates experts opinions and, if properly applied, it adaptively updates the model parameters such as the rate or probability of accidents. But at the same time it has the disadvantages of computational complexity. The predictive distribution for the time to next incident can not always be expected to end up with a nice closed form even with conjugate priors. Thus we often encounter a numerical integration problem with high dimensions to obtain a predictive distribution, which is practically unsolvable for a model that involves many parameters. In order to circumvent this difficulty, we propose a method of approximation that essentially breaks down a problem involving many integrations into several repetitive steps so that each step involves only a small number of integrations.

  • The general path model (GPM) is one approach for performing degradation-based, or Type III, prognostics. The GPM fits a parametric function to the collected observations of a prognostic parameter and extrapolates the fit to a failure threshold. This approach has been successfully applied to a variety of systems when a sufficient number of prognostic parameter observations are available. However, the parametric fit can suffer significantly when few data are available or the data are very noisy. In these instances, it is beneficial to include additional information to influence the fit to conform to a prior belief about the evolution of system degradation. Bayesian statistical approaches have been proposed to include prior information in the form of distributions of expected model parameters. This requires a number of run-to-failure cases with tracked prognostic parameters; these data may not be readily available for many systems. Reliability information and stressor-based (Type I and Type II, respectively) prognostic estimates can provide the necessary prior belief for the GPM. This article presents the Bayesian updating framework to include prior information in the GPM and compares the efficacy of including different information sources on two data sets.

  • After introducing diagnosis equipment power failure prevention activities for distribution system have become more active. To do facility diagnosis and maintenance work more efficiently we need to evaluate reliability for the system and should determine the priority line with appropriate criteria. Thus, to calculate risk factor for the power distribution line that are composed of many component facilities its historical failure events for the last 5 years are collected and analysed. The failure statics show that more than 60% of various failures are related to environment factors randomly and about 20% of the failures are refer to the aging. As a strategic evaluation system reflecting these environmental influence is needed, a system on the basis of the probabilistic approach related statical variables in terms of failure rate and failure probability of electrical components is proposed. The figures for the evaluation are derived from the field failure DB. With adopting Bayesian rule we can calculate easily about conditional probability query. The proposed evaluation system is demonstrated with model system and the calculated indices representing the properties of the model line are discussed.

  • A Bayesian dynamic linear model (BDLM) is presented for a data-driven analysis for response prediction and load effect separation of a revolving auditorium structure, where the main loads are self-weight and dead loads, temperature load, and audience load. Analyses are carried out based on the long-term monitoring data for static strains on several key members of the structure. Three improvements are introduced to the ordinary regression BDLM, which are a classificatory regression term to address the temporary audience load effect, improved inference for the variance of observation noise to be updated continuously, and component discount factors for effective load effect separation. The effects of those improvements are evaluated regarding the root mean square errors, standard deviations, and 95% confidence intervals of the predictions. Bayes factors are used for evaluating the probability distributions of the predictions, which are essential to structural condition assessments, such as outlier identification and reliability analysis. The performance of the present BDLM has been successfully verified based on the simulated data and the real data obtained from the structural health monitoring system installed on the revolving structure.

  • Alloy 690 tubing has been shown to be highly resistant to primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC). Nevertheless, predicting the failure by PWSCC in Alloy 690 SG tubes is indispensable. In this work, a Bayesian-based statistical approach is proposed to predict the occurrence of failure by PWSCC in Alloy 690 SG tubing. The prior distributions of the model parameters are developed based on the prior knowledge or information regarding the parameters. Since Alloy 690 is a replacement for Alloy 600, the parameter distributions of Alloy 600 tubing are used to gain prior information about the parameters of Alloy 690 tubing. In addition to estimating the model parameters, analysis of tubing reliability is also performed. Since no PWSCC has been observed in Alloy 690 tubing, only right-censored free-failure life of the tubing are available. Apparently the inference is sensitive to the choice of prior distribution when only right-censored data exist. Thus, one must be careful in choosing the prior distributions for the model parameters. It is found that the use of non-informative prior distribution yields unsatisfactory results, and strongly informative prior distribution will greatly influence the inference, especially when it is considerably optimistic relative to the observed data.
