In this paper, the problem posed in Yeonhwando is presumed like the following: "Make the sum of eight numbers in each 13 octagons to be 292, and the sum of four numbers in each 12 squares to be 146 using every numbers once from 1 to 72." Regarding this problem, in this paper, firstly, it is commented that there can be a lot of derived solutions from the Yang Hui's solution. Secondly, the Yang Hui's solution is generalized by using sequence 1 in which the sum of neighbouring two numbers are 73, 73-x by turns, and sequence 2 in which the sum of neighbouring two numbers are 73, 73+x by turns. Thirdly, the Yang Hui's solution is generalized by using the alternating method.

Let f : M ${\rightarrow}$ M be a self-map on the Klein bottle M. We compute the Lefschetz number and the Nielsen number of f by using the infra-nilmanifold structure of the Klein bottle and the averaging formulas for the Lefschetz numbers and the Nielsen numbers of maps on infra-nilmanifolds. For each positive integer n, we provide an explicit algorithm for a complete computation of the Nielsen type numbers $NP_n(f)$ and $N{\Phi}_{n}(f)\;of\;f^{n}$.

In the present paper, we analyse analytic continuation of weighted $q$-Genocchi numbers and polynomials. A novel formula for weighted $q$-Genocchi-zeta function $\tilde{\zeta}_{G,q}(s{\mid}{\alpha})$ in terms of nested series of $\tilde{\zeta}_{G,q}(n{\mid}{\alpha})$ is derived. Moreover, we introduce a novel concept of dynamics of the zeros of analytically continued weighted $q$-Genocchi polynomials.

Cauchy polynomials are also called Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind and these polynomials are very important to study mathematical physics. D. S. Kim et al. have studied some properties of Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind associated with special polynomials arising from umbral calculus. T. Kim introduced the degenerate Cauchy numbers and polynomials which are derived from the degenerate function $e^t$. Recently J. Jeong, S. H. Rim and B. M. Kim studied on finite times degenerate Cauchy numbers and polynomials. In this paper we consider finite times degenerate higher-order Cauchy numbers and polynomials, and give some identities and properties of these polynomials.

In this paper, we present some results on weak laws of large numbers for weighted sums of fuzzy random variables taking values in the space of normal and upper-semicontinuous fuzzy sets with compact support in a separable real Banach space. First, we give weak laws of large numbers for weighted sums of strong-compactly uniformly integrable fuzzy random variables. Then, we consider the case that the weighted averages of expectations of fuzzy random variables converge. Finally, weak laws of large numbers for weighted sums of strongly tight or identically distributed fuzzy random variables are obtained as corollaries.

Natural convection in a horizontal annulus with spacers has been studied on the effects of diameter ratio and Rayleigh numbers and position of spacers by experimental method. In case of vertical spacers, the local spacer Nusselt numbers show positive values on the lower spacer, but negative values on the upper spacer. In case of horizontal spacers, the local spacer Nusselt numbers show positive values on the upward surface of spacer, but negative values on the downward surface of spacer. The mean tube Nusselt numbers and mean cylinder Nusselt numbers with vertical spacer are increased 10% and 2.1%, respectively by those of horizontal spacer.

The volume of fluid (VOF) model of FLUENT and the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) are used to simulate two-phase flows. Both methods are validated for static and dynamic bubble test cases and then compared to experimental results. The VOF method does not reduce the spurious currents of the static droplet test and does not satisfy the Laplace law for small droplets at the acceptable level, as compared with the LBM. For single bubble flows, simulations are executed for various Eotvos numbers, Morton numbers and Reynolds numbers, and the results of both methods agree well with the experiments in the case of low Eotvos numbers. For high Eotvos numbers, the VOF results deviated from the experiments. For multiple bubbles, the bubble flow characteristics are related by the wake of the leading bubble. The coaxial and oblique coalescence of the bubbles are simulated successfully and the subsequent results are presented. In conclusion, the LBM performs better than the VOF method.

In this work, we deal with $q$-Genocchi numbers and polynomials. We derive not only new but also interesting properties of the $q$-Genocchi numbers and polynomials. Also, we give Cauchy-type integral formula of the $q$-Genocchi polynomials and derive distribution formula for the $q$-Genocchi polynomials. In the final part, we introduce a definition of $q$-Zeta-type function which is interpolation function of the $q$-Genocchi polynomials at negative integers which we express in the present paper.

This paper proposes a new optical recognition method of credit card numbers. Firstly, the proposed method segments numbers from the input image of a credit card. It uses the significant differences of standard deviations between the foreground numbers and the background. Secondly, the method extracts gradient features from the segmented numbers. The gradient features are defined as four directions of grayscale pixels for 16 regions of an input number. Finally, it utilizes an artificial neural network classifier that uses an error back-propagation algorithm. The proposed method is implemented using C language in an embedded Linux system for a high-speed real-time image processing. Experiments were conducted by using real credit card images. The results show that the proposed algorithm is quite successful for most credit cards. However, the method fails in some credit cards with strong background patterns.

A triangular fuzzy number is one of the most popular fuzzy numbers. Many results for the extended algebraic operations between two triangular fuzzy numbers are well-known. We generalize the triangular fuzzy numbers on $\mathbb{R}$ to $\mathbb{R}^2$. By defining parametric operations between two regions valued ${\alpha}$-cuts, we get the parametric operations for two triangular fuzzy numbers defined on $\mathbb{R}^2$.
