Airborne Gamma Ray Spectrometry (AGRS) with its important applications such as gathering radiation information of ground surface, geochemistry measuring of the abundance of Potassium, Thorium and Uranium in outer earth layer, environmental and nuclear site surveillance has a key role in the field of nuclear science and human life. The Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS), with its advanced numerical unconstrained nonlinear optimization in collaboration with Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) provides a noteworthy opportunity for modern AGRS. In this study a new AGRS system empowered by ANN-BFGS has been proposed and evaluated on available empirical AGRS data. To that effect different architectures of adaptive ANN-BFGS were implemented for a sort of published experimental AGRS outputs. The selected approach among of various training methods, with its low iteration cost and nondiagonal scaling allocation is a new powerful algorithm for AGRS data due to its inherent stochastic properties. Experiments were performed by different architectures and trainings, the selected scheme achieved the smallest number of epochs, the minimum Mean Square Error (MSE) and the maximum performance in compare with different types of optimization strategies and algorithms. The proposed method is capable to be implemented on a cost effective and minimum electronic equipment to present its real-time process, which will let it to be used on board a light Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The advanced adaptation properties and models of neural network, the training of stochastic process and its implementation on DSP outstands an affordable, reliable and low cost AGRS design. The main outcome of the study shows this method increases the quality of curvature information of AGRS data while cost of the algorithm is reduced in each iteration so the proposed ANN-BFGS is a trustworthy appropriate model for Gamma-ray data reconstruction and analysis based on advanced novel artificial intelligence systems.

The environment has been identified as an origin, reservoir, and transmission route of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Among diverse environments, freshwater environments have been recognized as pivotal in the transmission of ARGs between opportunistic pathogens and autochthonous bacteria such as Aeromonas spp. In this study, five environmental strains of Aeromonas spp. exhibiting multidrug resistance (MDR) were selected for whole-genome sequencing to ascertain their taxonomic assignment at the species-level and to delineate their ARG repertoires. Analyses of their genomes revealed the presence of one protein almost identical to AhQnr (A. hydrophila Qnr protein) and four novel proteins similar to AhQnr. To scrutinize the classification and taxonomic distribution of these proteins, all Aeromonas genomes deposited in the NCBI RefSeq genome database (1,222 genomes) were investigated. This revealed that these Aeromonas Qnr (AQnr) proteins are conserved intrinsic resistance determinants of the genus, exhibiting species-specific diversity. Additionally, structure prediction and analysis of contribution to quinolone resistance by AQnr proteins of the isolates, confirmed their functionality as quinolone resistance determinants. Given the origin of mobile qnr genes from aquatic bacteria and the crucial role of Aeromonas spp. in ARG dissemination in aquatic environments, a thorough understanding and strict surveillance of AQnr families prior to the clinical emergence are imperative. In this study, using comparative genome analyses and functional characterization of AQnr proteins in the genus Aeromonas, novel Aeromonas ARGs requiring surveillance has suggested.

Increasingly, leisure time is being used for outdoor recreational activities, and fishing is one of the principal forms of marine recreation. Marine recreational fishing is a popular activity in Korea and this activity has led to the development of a sector of substantial social and economic value. Also it is considered as one of the important outdoor leisure industries in Korea. With rising of income level and development of marine outdoor leisure industries, social, economic demand increase of marine recreational fishing are showing us new advance ability of marine aquatic bio-industry. However the recreational use of fish stocks has become an important consideration in the public and environmental economic analysis of management aspect of fishing, having grown considerably over recent years to reach a level in Korea where the fish stocks and coastal ecosystem has become a significant management problem. we are inevitably facing marine environmental deterioration and overfishing in marine recreational fishing. In this study, not only resources and environmental problems which are occurred by recreational fishers, but also illegal fishing behaviors and other problems such as market's failure are going to analyze basic management theories and methods of recreational fishing through mathematical principals and economic rents which maximize net social benefits. In view of the likelihood of marine recreational fishers adopting high rates of discount, the conservation of fish resources would appear to require continual public surveillance and control of the physical yield and condition of the fish stocks and the optimal use level. The institutional management of recreational fisheries is the way of escaping the collapse of recreational fisheries just like as the situation of management's failure of commercial fisheries worldwide. One of the effective management measure is a license system. In this system, optimal fee is paid by recreational fishers, which prevent them from overfishing, environmental problems to some extents and carry out the optimal number of outings. And money obtained by license fee should be spent for more improvement fishing culture and welfare for marine recreational fishing. Marine recreational fishing is to be promoted under sound conservation and management principles.

지능형교통체계(ITS : Intelligent Transportation Systems)는 도로이용자들로 하여금 다양한 교통환경에서 도로를 좀 더 효율적으로 이용하게 해 주었다. 기존의 지점검지체계 기반의 교통정보 수집 및 제공시스템에서 오는 한계점을 극복하기 위해 최근 들어서는 차량-차량간 및 차량-인프라간 통신기술을 바탕으로 하는 교통자료 수집 및 제공에 관한 연구가 다양하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 차량간 및 차량과 인프라간 통신은 무선으로 이루어지기 때문에 주변 환경의 영향(건물, 날씨, 대형차량 등)으로 인해 통신 실패가 빈번히 발생하여 교통정보수집의 신뢰성을 저하시키고 있다. 본 연구에서는 무선통신기반 교통정보수집시 통신 실패로 인한 차량의 주행궤적정보가 결측되었을 경우 이를 보정할 수 있는 방법론을 개발하였다. 먼저 차량의 주행궤적자료 결측 보정을 위한 기존의방법들 및 무선통신기반 교통자료수집을 위한 요구조건들을 검토하였다. 다음으로 AIMSUN을 이용하여 차량의 주행궤적자료를 수집하였고, 이를 바탕으로 임의의 결측치를 생성하였다. 결측된 자료는 기존의 교통자료 결측치 보정 방법과 본 연구에서 수정된 방법을 적용하여 보정한 후 비교 분석해 보았다. 분석결과 무선통신기반 교통수집체계하에서 통신 단절로 인한 결측치는 기존의 방법보다는 차량의 주행궤적 특성을 고려해서 수정된 방법으로 보정했을 경우 좀 더 정확한 교통정보를 수집할 수 있었다.

현재 국내 환경에서의 HF 레이더는 기본적으로 표층해류의 속도와 방위의 측정에 최적화 되어있는 상태이다. 따라서, 이러한 환경하에서 선박을 탐지하는 데에는 큰 환경 잡음과 다수의 오검출로 인하여 기존의 선박 검출 및 추적 기술로는 정밀도에 한계점이 있다. 특히, 국내의 지형환경에 적합한 콤팩트형 HF(High Frequency) 레이더를 선박의 감시에 적용했을 경우에 나타나는 문제점들인 잡음과 간섭으로 인한 원신호 왜곡과 다수의 오검출이 발생하여 성능에 영향을 미치는 것을 극복하기 위한 검출 및 추적 기술이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 조건 하에서 적용이 가능한 선박 검출 및 추적 기술을 제안을 하며, 서해에서 운용되고 있는 콤팩트 HF 레이더 사이트에서 획득한 관측 데이터에 적용하여 성능을 평가하였다. 제안된 기법은 선박의 검출에 대한 부분과 검출 결과의 추적에 대한 부분으로 이루어져 있다. 선박의 검출은 CFAR(Constant False Alarm Rate) 기반의 검출기를 활용하였으며, 실제 환경에서 불규칙적으로 획득되는 잡음과 오검출 신호를 줄이기 위한 PCA(Principal Component Analysis) 기반의 부분공간 분리기법을 적용하였다. 또한, 긴 입력 획득 주기(Coherent Processing Interval) 동안에 발생하는 도플러 주파수 변화로 인하여 하나의 선박이 다수의 검출값을 생성하기도 하는데, 이를 결합하기 위한 군집화 기법을 적용하였다. 선박의 검출 결과는 검출에 실패하거나 오검출을 포함시키는 경우도 발생하는데, 이러한 오검출을 줄이기 위한 선박 추적 기법을 적용하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면 제안된 선박 검출 및 추적 기술을 통하여 콤팩트 HF 레이더가 일정 거리에서 선박의 검출 성공율이 우수하다는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) field is mainly studied to monitor and characterize large-scale physical environments to track various environmental or physical conditions, such as temperature, pressure, wind speed and humidity. WSN can be used in various applications such as wild surveillance, military target tracking and monitoring, dangerous environmental exploration and natural disaster relief. We design probabilistic mobile models that apply to mobile ad hoc network mobile environments. A probabilistic shift model proposed by dividing the number of moving nodes and the distance of travel into two categories to express node movement characteristics. The proposed model of movement through simulation was compared with the existing random movement model, ensuring that the width and variation rate of the first node node node node (FND) was stable regardless of the node movement rate. In addition, when the proposed mobile model is applied to the routing protocol, the superiority of network life can be verified from measured FND values. We overcame the limitations of the existing random movement model, showing excellent characteristics in terms of energy efficiency and stable in terms of changes in node movement.

In this paper, we present a new efficient event detection algorithm for sensor networks with faults. We focus on multi-attributed events, which are sets of data points that correspond to interesting or unusual patterns in the underlying phenomenon that the network monitors. Conventional algorithms cannot detect some events because they treat only their own sensor readings which can be affected easily by environmental or physical problem. Our approach exploits spatio-temporal correlation of sensor readings. Sensor nodes exchange a fault-tolerant code encoded their own readings with neighbors, organize virtual sensor readings which have spatio-temporal correlation, and determine a result for multi-attributed events from them. In the result, our proposed algorithm provides improvement of detecting multi-attributed events and reduces the number of false-negatives due to negative environmental effects.

This study proposes an integrated technique of Genetic Algorishim (GA) and Geographic Information System (GIS) for designing the water quality monitoring networks. To develop solution scheme of the integrated system, fitness functions are defined by the linear combination of five criteria which stand for the operation objectives of water quality monitoring stations. The criteria include representativeness of a river system, compliance with water quality standards, supervision of water use, surveillance of pollution sources and examination of water quality changes. The fitness level is obtained through calculations of the fitness functions and input data from GIS. To find the most appropriate parameters for the problems, the sensitivity analysis is performed for four parameters such as number of generations, population sizes, probability of crossover, and probability of mutation. Using the parameters resulted from the sensitivity analysis, the developed system proposed 110 water quality monitoring stations in the Nakdong River. This study demonstrates that the integrated technique of GA and GIS can be utilized as a decision supporting tool in optimized design for a water quality monitoring network.
