This study concerns with an applicability of the management science approach to the score adjustment among the College Scholastic Aptitude Test(CSAT) optional subjects. A linear programming model is developed to minimize the sum of score distortions between optional subjects. Based on the analysis of the 377,089 CSAT(2010) applicants' performances in social science test section, this study proposes a new approach for the score equating or linking method of the educational measurement theory. This study makes up for the weak points in the previous linear programming model. First, the model utilize the standard score which we can get. Second, the model includes a goal programming concept which minimizes the gap between the adjusting goal and the result of the adjustment. Third, the objective function of the linear programing is the weighted sum of the score distortion and the number of applicants. Fourth, the model is applied to the score adjustment problem for the whole 11 optional subjects of the social science test section. The suggested linear programming model is a generalization of the multi-tests linking problem. So, the approach is consistent with the measurement theory for the two tests and can be applied to the optional three or more tests which do not have a common anchor test or a common anchor group. The college admission decision with CSAT score can be improved by using the suggested linear programming model.

A general linear mixed-effects model is often used to analyze repeated measurement experiment data of a continuous response variable. However, a general linear mixed-effects model can give improper analysis results when simultaneously detecting heteroscedasticity and the non-normality of population distribution. To achieve a more robust estimation, we used a heavy-tailed linear mixed-effects model for a more exact and reliable analysis conclusion than a general linear mixed-effects model. We also provide reliability analysis results for further research.

This paper evaluated the amount of radiation generated by wedge filters during radiation therapy using a high-energy linear accelerator, and the dose to the worker during wedge replacement. After 10-MV photon beam was irradiated with wedge filter, the wedge was removed from the linear accelerator, and the dose rate and energy spectrum were measured. The initial measurement was approximately 1 uSv/h, and the radiation level was reduced to 0.3 uSv/h after 6 min. The effective half-life derived from the dose rate measurement was approximately 3.5 min, and the influence of AI-28 was about 53%. From the energy spectrum measurements, a peak of 1,799 keV was measured for AI-28, while the peak for Co-58 was not measured in the control room. The peaks for Au-106 and Cd-105 were found only measurement was done without wedge removement from the linear accelerator. The additional doses received by the radiation worker during wedge replacement were estimated to be 0.08-0.4 mSv per year.

A study on the manufacturing of High Precision Linear Scalr using He-Ne Laser interference Of late, along with the advancement of precision machining technology, the requirement of super precision measurement increases as time goes on, and the accuracy of standard scale which is a basis of precision measurement has been cognized as a criterion of industrial development in a nationl. In this paper, we described on technology by which we could carve scale lines thru optical method under the condition of laboratory by using the coherence of He-Ne two-mode stabilized laser and in turn, put it to practical use as linear scale for the measurement of length. Hence in this research in the case of setting scale interval to 20 ${\mu}m$, we employed super precision scale-carving device associated with Ar laser and acousto optic modulator in lieu of flashing lamp scale-carving device, and we obtained as experimental result superior linear scales carved within the accuracy of ${\pm}$0.3${\mu}m$.

A Hybrid type Linear Pulse Motor(LPM) for low cost is designed as single side stator structure. The static and dynamic characteristics measurement systems are designed. Experimental measurement systems, which measure the static and dynamic characteristic of the LPM, are uggested for the prototype LPM. It becomes known the values of the thrust forces. Finally the microstep drive method is adopted to the drive of prototype LPM. The waveform difference is measured between the microstep method and rectangular wave. From the experimental results, it can be confirmed that the repetitive ripple of the thrust force of the prototype LPM are reduced by taking the microstep drive method.

This paper presents the linear model of the measurement system with Phasor Measurement Units (PMU's) and the parallel processing technique to determinate state vectors of a power system. The conventional model of the PMU measurement system is in a dilemma that it is not applicable to optimal PMU placements and it needs more PMU to apply this model. In order to improve this defect, in this paper, the extended linear model which adaptable to optimal PMU placements considering the feature of zero injection bus is proposed. Because the proposed model is expressed as over-determined measurement equation, the efficient algorithm is needed. This paper proposed the partitioning scheme and the process algorithm for parallel determinating state vectors of a power system efficiently. The performance of the proposed linear model and the parallel processing algorithm is evaluated with IEEE sample systems.

The linear polarization resistance method is one of the widely used techniques for the corrosion rate monitoring in the water circulating systems of plants. The measurement is simple and rapid, so that a continuous on-line monitoring is possible without any shutdown of plants. A 2-electrode polarization corrosion rate measurement system was installed in a laboratory using a data acquisition board and PC. The signal processing parameters were optimized for the accurate corrosion rate measurement, and the polarization resistance was compensated with the solution resistance measured by the high frequency sine wave signal of an output channel. The precision of corrosion rate data was greatly improved by removing the initial noise signals on measuring the polarization resistance.

This paper addresses a new passive target tracking problem using the range differences measured by cooperative UAVs. In order to solve the range difference based passive target tracking problem within the framework of linear robust state estimation, the uncertain linear measurement model which contains the stochastic parameter uncertainty is derived by using the noisy range difference measurements. To cope with the performance degradation due to the stochastic parameter uncertainty, the recently developed non-conservative robust Kalman filtering technique [1] is applied. For the cruciform formation flying UAVs, the relationship between the target tracking performance and the measurement errors is quantitatively analyzed. The proposed filter has practical advantages over the classical nonlinear filters because, for its recursive linear structure, it can provide satisfactory convergence properties and is suitable for real-time multiple UAVs applications. Through the simulations, the usefulness of the proposed method is demonstrated.

Motor frequency can be measured by a hall sensor. Among the many hall sensors, a linear type hall sensor is good at high accuracy frequency measuring problem. However, in general, this linear type hall sensor has DC offset which can vary along sensor's operating voltage change. Therefore, In motor frequency measurement problem using the linear hall sensor, it needs an estimator that can estimate frequency and DC offset simultaneously. In this paper, we propose the least mean square estimator to estimate motor frequency. To verify its performance, we compare the LMS estimator with a commercial analog tachometer. Experimental results shows the proposed LMS estimator works well in varying frequency and stationary DC offset.
