Through sensor nodes it can obtain behavior, condition, location of objects. Generally speaking, sensor nodes are very limited because they have a battery power supply. Therefore, for collecting sensor data, efficient energy management is necessary in order to prolong the entire network survival. In this paper, we propose a method that increases energy efficiency to be self-configuring by distributed sensor nodes per cluster. The proposed method is based on the ANTCLUST. After measuring the similarity between two objects it is method that determine own cluster. It applies a colonial closure model of ant. The result of an experiment, it showed that the number of alive nodes increased 27% than existing clustering methods.

Past clustering researches are focused on extraction of keyword for word similarity grouping. However, too many candidates to compare and compute bring high complexity, low speed and low accuracy. To overcome these weaknesses, this paper proposed a topical web document clustering model using not only keyword but also named entities such as person name, organization, location, and so on. By several experiments, we prove effects of our model compared with traditional model based on only keyword and analyze how different effects show according to characteristics of document collection.

In this paper, we utilize time-series aircraft location data measured based on 2019 domestic airports to analyze Go-Around and UOC_D situations during the approach phase of domestic airports. Various clustering-based machine learning techniques are applied to determine the most appropriate analysis method for domestic aviation data through experimentation. The ADS-B sensor is solely employed to measure aircraft positions. We designed a model using clustering algorithms such as K-Means, GMM, and DBSCAN to classify abnormal situations. Among them, the RF model showed the best performance overseas, but through experiments, it was confirmed that the GMM showed the highest classification performance for domestic aviation data by reflecting the aspects specialized in domestic terrain.

In this paper, we propose a Clustering-based Cooperative Routing using OFDM (CCRO) for supporting transmission efficiency in mobile wireless sensor networks. The main features and contributions of the proposed method are as follows. First, the clustering method which uses the location information of nodes as underlying infrastructure for supporting stable transmission services efficiently is used. Second, cluster-based cooperative data transmission method is used for improving data transmission and reliability services. Third, OFDM based data transmission method is used for improving data transmission ratio with channel efficiency. Fourth, we consider realistic approach in the view points of the mobile ad-hoc wireless sensor networks while conventional methods just consider fixed sensor network environments. The performance evaluation of the proposed method is performed via simulation using OPNET and theoretical analysis. The results of performance evaluation show improvement of transmission efficiency.

In a modern society, people are concerned seriously about their travel destinations depending on time, economic problem. In this paper, we propose an non-hierarchical clustering based hybrid recommendation using context knowledge. The proposed method is personalized way of recommended knowledge about preferred travel places according to the user's location, place, and weather. Based on 14 attributes from the data collected through the survey, users with similar characteristics are grouped using a non-hierarchical clustering based hybrid recommendation. This makes more accurate recommendation by weighting implicit and explicit data. The users can be recommended a preferred travel destination without spending unnecessary time. The performance evaluation uses accuracy, recall, F-measure. The evaluation result was shown 0.636 accuracy, 0.723 recall, and 0.676 F-measure.

Wireless sensor networks consist of numerous nodes equipped with small-sized and limited calculation capacities and storage space as well as low-capacity batteries. Therefore, the key issue is to reduce energy consumption of sensor nodes in sensor network environment. To reduce energy consumption of sensor nodes, consideration must be given to decreasing frequency of messages transmitted by nodes. Also, considering network application, security of sensor networks is also considered important. Therefore, this study proposes a key distribution scheme in dynamic clustering model. The dynamic clustering model used for this scheme is very effective in extending life span of wireless sensor networks. The proposed scheme provides improved security compared to the existing key distribution scheme by applying grid-based key distribution scheme and allocating polynomial s hare to the nodes forming a cluster. Also, comparison was made with the previously proposed grid-based, location-based and cluster-based key distribution schemes to illustrate the advantages of the proposed scheme.

The heterogeneous network (HetNet) has been one of the key technologies in Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) with growing capacity and coverage demands. However, the introduction of femtocells has brought serious co-layer interference and cross-layer interference, which has been a major factor affecting system throughput. It is generally acknowledged that the resource allocation has significant impact on suppressing interference and improving the system performance. In this paper, we propose a hybrid-clustering algorithm based on the $Mat{\acute{e}}rn$ hard-core process (MHP) to restrain two kinds of co-channel interference in the HetNet. As the impracticality of the hexagonal grid model and the homogeneous Poisson point process model whose points distribute completely randomly to establish the system model. The HetNet model based on the MHP is adopted to satisfy the negative correlation distribution of base stations in this paper. Base on the system model, the spectrum sharing problem with restricted spectrum resources is further analyzed. On the basis of location information and the interference relation of base stations, a hybrid clustering method, which takes into accounts the fairness of two types of base stations is firstly proposed. Then, auction mechanism is discussed to achieve the spectrum sharing inside each cluster, avoiding the spectrum resource waste. Through combining the clustering theory and auction mechanism, the proposed novel algorithm can be applied to restrain the cross-layer interference and co-layer interference of HetNet, which has a high density of base stations. Simulation results show that spectral efficiency and system throughput increase to a certain degree.

The tactical computer is currently being developed and installed in armored vehicles and tanks for reinforcement. With the tactical computer, Korea Army will be able to grasp the deployment status of our forces, enemy, and obstacles under varying situations. Furthermore, it makes the exchange of command and tactical intelligence possible. Recent studies showed that the task performance is greatly affected by the user interface. The U.S. Army is now conducting user-centered evaluation tests based on C2 (Command & Control) to develop tactical intelligence machinery and tools. This study aims to classify and regroup subordinate menu functions according to the user-centered task performance for the Korea Army's tactical computer. Also, the research suggests an ergonomically sound layout and size of main touch buttons by considering human factors guidelines for button design. To achieve this goal, eight hierarchical subordinate menu functions are initially drawn through clustering analysis and then each group of menu functions was renamed. Based on the suggested menu structure, new location and size of the buttons were tested in terms of response time, number of error, and subjective preference by comparing them to existing ones. The result showed that the best performance was obtained when the number of buttons or functions was eight to conduct tactical missions. Also, the improved button size and location were suggested through the experiment. It was found in addition that the location and size of the buttons had interactions regarding the user's preference.

Due to COVID-19, the risk of price volatility in commodity and equity markets increases. The research and application of hedging is the most effective way to reduce the market risk. Hedging is a risk management strategy employed to offset losses in investments by taking an opposite position in a related asset. We use K-means and hierarchical clustering methods to cluster companies and futures products respectively, and analyze the relationship between the number of hedging firms, regional distribution, nature of firms, capital distribution, company size, profitability, number of local Futures Commission Merchants (FCMs), regional location, and listing time. The study shows that listed companies with large scale and good profitability invest more money in hedging, while state-owned enterprises' participation in hedging is more likely to be affected by the company size and the number of local futures commission merchants, and private enterprises are more likely to be affected by the company profitability and the regional location. Listed companies are more willing to choose long-listed and mature futures products for hedging. We also provide policy advice based on our conclusion. So far, there is no study on the characteristics of hedging. This paper fills the gap. The results provide a basis and guidance for people's investment and risk management. Using clustering analysis in hedging study is another innovation of this paper.

As one of the most interesting scenes, landmarks constitute a large percentage of the vast amount of scene images available on the web. On the other hand, a specific "landmark" usually has some characteristics that distinguish it from surrounding scenes and other landmarks. These two observations make the task of accurately estimating geographic information from a landmark image necessary and feasible. In this paper, we propose a method to identify landmark location by means of landmark recognition in view of significant viewpoint, illumination and temporal variations. We use GPS-based clustering to form groups for different landmarks in the image dataset. The images in each group rather fully express the possible views of the corresponding landmark. We then use a combination of edge and color histogram to match query to database images. Initial experiments with Zubud database and our collected landmark images show that is feasible.
