Statistical matching is a method of data integration for data sources that do not share the same units. It could produce rapidly lots of new information at low cost and decrease the response burden affecting the quality of data. This paper proposes a statistical matching technique combining k-NN (k-nearest neighborhood) and regression methods. We select k records in a donor file that have similarity in value with a specific observation of the common variable in a recipient file and estimate an imputation value for the recipient file, using regression modeling in the donor file. An empirical comparison study is conducted to show the properties of the proposed method.

Until now, Electroencephalography(: EEG) has been the most important and convenient method for the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy. However, it is difficult to identify the wave characteristics of an epileptic EEG signals because it is very weak, non-stationary and has strong background noise. In this paper, we analyse the effect of dimensionality reduction methods on Epileptic EEG feature selection and classification. Three dimensionality reduction methods: Pincipal Component Analysis(: PCA), Kernel Principal Component Analysis(: KPCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis(: LDA） were investigated. The performance of each method was evaluated by using Support Vector Machine SVM, Logistic Regression(: LR), K-Nearestneighbor(: K-NN), Decision Tree(: DR) and Random Forest(: RF). From the experimental result, PCA recorded 75% of highest accuracy in SVM, LR and K-NN. KPCA recorded 85% of best performance in SVM and K-KNN while LDA achieved 100% accuracy in K-NN. Thus, LDA dimensionality reduction is found to provide the best classification result for epileptic EEG signal.

In this study, an WiFi fingerprinting method based on the k-nn algorithm was applied to improve the accuracy of location tracking of a moving train on a platform and evaluate the performance to minimize the estimation error of location tracking. The data related to the position of the moving train are monitored by the control center for trains and used widely for the safety and comfort of passengers. The train location tracking methods based on WiFi installed by telecom companies were evaluated. In this study, a simulator was developed to consider the environments of two cases; in already installed WiFi devices and new installed WiFi devices. The developed simulator can simulate the localized estimation of the position under a variety of conditions, such as the number of WiFi devices, the area of platform and entry velocity of train. To apply location tracking algorithms, a k-nn algorithm and fuzzy k-nn algorithm were applied selectively according to the underlying condition and also four distance measurement algorithms were applied to compare the error of location tracking. In conclusion, the best method to estimate train location tracking is a combination of the k-nn algorithm and Minkoski distance measurement at a 0.5m grid unit and 8 WiFi AP installed.

This paper presents a novel method to speed up neural network (NN) based face detection systems. NN-based face detection can be viewed as a classification and search problem. The proposed method formulates the search problem as an integer nonlinear optimization problem (INLP) and expands the basic particle swarm optimization (PSO) to solve it. PSO works with a population of particles, each representing a subwindow in an input image. The subwindows are evaluated by how well they match a NN-based face filter. A face is indicated when the filter response of the best particle is above a given threshold. To achieve better performance, the influence of PSO parameter settings on the search performance was investigated. Experiments show that with fine-adjusted parameters, the proposed method leads to a speedup of 94 on 320${\times}$240 images compared to the traditional exhaustive search method.

This paper presents a novel method to speed up neural network (NN) based face detection systems. NN-based face detection can be viewed as a classification and search problem. The proposed method formulates the search problem as an integer nonlinear optimization problem (INLP) and develops an improved genetic algorithm (IGA) to solve it. Each individual in the IGA represents a subwindow in an input image. The subwindows are evaluated by how well they match a NN-based face filter. A face is indicated when the filter response of the best particle is above a given threshold. Experimental results show that the proposed method leads to a speedup of 83 on $320{\times}240$ images compared to the traditional exhaustive search method.

Spatial data base system provides many query types and most of them are required frequent disk I/O and much CPU time. k-NN search is to find k-th closest object from the query point and up to now, several k-NN search methods have been proposed. Among these, MINMAX distance method has an aim not to access unnecessary node by adapting pruning technique. But this method accesses more disks than necessary while pruning unnecessary nodes. In this paper, we propose new k-NN search algorithm based on density of object. With this method, we predict the radius to be expected to contain k-NN objects using density of data set and search those objects within this radius and then adjust radius if failed. Experimental results show that this method outperforms the previous MINMAX distance method. This algorithm visit less disks than MINMAX method by the factor of maximum 22% and average 7%.

This paper proposes an efficient index scheduling technique for kNN query processing in multiple wireless broadcast channel environment. Previous works have to wait for the next cycle if the required child nodes of the same parent node are allocated in the same time slot on multiple channel. Our proposed method computes the access frequencies of each node of R tree at the server before the generation of the R-tree index broadcast schedule. If they have high frequencies, we allocate them serially on the single channel. If they have low frequencies, we allocate them in parallel on the multiple channels. As a result, we can reduce the index node access conflicts and the long broadcast cycle. The performance evaluation shows that our scheme gives the better performance than the existing schemes.

Recently there has been much interest in applying data mining to computer network intrusion detection. A new approach, based on the k-Nearest Neighbour(kNN) classifier, is used to classify Program behaviour as normal or intrusive. Each system call is treated as a word and the collection of system calls over each program execution as a document. These documents are then classified using kNN classifier, a Popular method in text mining. A simple example illustrates the proposed procedure.

본 논문에서는 다양한 타입의 위치기반 데이터들을 하나의 R-tree로 통합합 $R^m$-tree의 구조와 이 $R^m$-tree를 이용하여 질의 포인트로부터 각 타입에서 k개의 가까운 위치기반 데이터를 찾는 mkNN(multi-type k nearest neighbor) 질의 처리기법을 제안하였다. 특히, 다양한 타입의 위치기반 데이터들을 각 타입별로 독립된 R-tree로 유지하지 않고, 하나의 $R^m$-tree로 통합하여 관리함으로써 mkNN 질의 처리시 같은 레벨의 공간의 반복탐색을 줄일 수 있도록 고안하였다. 그리고 각 타입 t에 대한 위치데이터를 관리하는 부가적인 타입정보 자료구조로서 위치정보를 담은 TMBR, 데이터 개수정보를 담은 $I_t$-entry를 새로이 고안하여 mkNN질의 처리시 효율적인 휠터링(filtering)과 검색과정이 이루어지도록 하였다.

This paper presents a new method for assessing the three-point-bending (3PB) strength of mortar beams in a non-destructive manner, based on neural network (NN) models. The models are based on the radial basis function (RBF) architecture and the fuzzy means algorithm is employed for training, in order to boost the prediction accuracy. Data for training the models were collected based on a series of experiments, where the cement mortar beams were subjected to various bending mechanical loads and the resulting pressure stimulated currents (PSCs) were recorded. The input variables to the NN models were then calculated by describing the PSC relaxation process through a generalization of Boltzmannn-Gibbs statistical physics, known as non-extensive statistical physics (NESP). The NN predictions were evaluated using k-fold cross-validation and new data that were kept independent from training; it can be seen that the proposed method can successfully form the basis of a non-destructive tool for assessing the bending strength. A comparison with a different NN architecture confirms the superiority of the proposed approach.
