BACKGROUND: Water quality data are collected less frequently than flow data because of the cost to collect and analyze, while water quality data corresponding to flow data are required to compute pollutant loads or to calibrate other hydrology models. Regression models are applicable to interpolate water quality data corresponding to flow data. METHODS AND RESULTS: A regression model was suggested which is capable to consider flow and time variance, and the regression model coefficients were calibrated using various measured water quality data with genetic-algorithm. Both LOADEST and the regression using genetic-algorithm were evaluated by 19 water quality data sets through calibration and validation. The regression model using genetic-algorithm displayed the similar model behaviors to LOADEST. The load estimates by both LOADEST and the regression model using genetic-algorithm indicated that use of a large proportion of water quality data does not necessarily lead to the load estimates with smaller error to measured load. CONCLUSION: Regression models need to be calibrated and validated before they are used to interpolate pollutant loads, as separating water quality data into two data sets for calibration and validation.

Control charts are used to distinguish between chance and assignable causes in the variability of quality characteristics. When a control chart signals that an assignable cause is present, process engineers must initiate a search for the assignable cause of the process disturbance. Identifying the time of a process change could lead to simplifying the search for the assignable cause and less process down time, as well as help to reduce the probability of incorrectly identifying the assignable cause. The change point estimation by likelihood theory and the built-in change point estimation in a control chart have been discussed until now. In this article, we discuss two kinds of process change point estimation when the CUSUM ($\bar{x}$, s) control chart for monitoring process mean and variance simultaneously is operated. Throughout some numerical experiments about the performance of the change point estimation, the change point estimation techniques in the CUSUM ($\bar{x}$, s) control chart are considered.

Mass estimation was derived as functions of acceleration magnitude and primary frequency. The conventional method of mass estimation used frequency data directly in the frequency domain. The signals that can be obtained sensor contained noise as well as impact signal. Therefore, how well we can detect the frequency data in noise directly determines the quality of mass estimation. To find exact frequency data, we used time-frequency analysis. The time frequency method are expected to be more useful than the conventional frequency domain analyses for the mass estimation problem on a plate type structure. Also it has been concluded that the smoothed WVD can give more reliable means than the other methodologies for the mass estimation in a noisy environment.

본 연구에서는 디지털 방송 TV, VOD 등 제한된 네트워크 대역폭에서 서비스를 제공하기 위해 비디오 콘텐츠를 부호화하는 과정에서 고정된 비트율을 이용한 화질과 비교하여 주관적 화질을 유지하면서 적절한 비트율을 찾는 방법을 제시한다. 제안하는 예측 구조는 먼저 프레임에서 비트와 연관성이 있는 파라미터를 추출하여 프레임의 복잡도를 계산한 후, 비트가 많이 할당될 것으로 예상되는 프레임을 찾아 후보 프레임으로 추출하며, 추출된 후보 프레임들에 대해 실제 부호화하는 과정으로써 목표 화질을 기준으로 수학적 모델링을 통해 최종적으로 전송될 비트율을 예측하는 구조를 설계하였다. 실험 결과, 고정 비트율에 비해 저복잡도 영상에서 평균 43%의 비트 감소율을 보였으며, 이러한 영상의 비트 감소율이 있음에도 주관적 화질을 유지함을 알 수 있었다. 비디오 콘텐츠별 적절한 비트율을 찾기 위해 기존 구조에서는 다수의 부호화를 통해 결과물들의 주관적 화질 검증을 반복적으로 거치는 반면, 제안하는 구조는 사람이 관여하여 주관적 화질 검증을 반복적으로 수행하지 않아도 되며 일부 프레임만을 부호화하여 비트율 예측이 가능하다. 따라서 전체 프레임 중 평균 4% 프레임을 부호화하여 자동적으로 비트율을 찾을 수 있다.

H.263은 영상전화, 영상회의 등의 서비스를 64Kbps 이하 전송로에서 가능하게 하는 ITU-T의 국제 표준이다. 이 권고안에서는 움직임 추정/보상, 변환 부호화, 양자화방법을 기본으로 사용하고 있다. H.263의 성능평가에 사용된 TMN5는 변환부호화 방법으로 DCT를 사용하고, DCT 변환계수를 양자화하기 위한 양자화기가 제시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 TMN5의 구조를 그대로 유지하면서 인간 시각 특성을 고려하여 DCT 계수를 효과적으로 양자화할 수 있는 적응 양자화기를 제안한다. 제안된 DCT 기반 H.263의 양자화기는 같은 전송 속도에서 TMN5보다 더 많은 프레임을 전송 처리함으로 화면 드롭현상을 줄일 수 있었다. 또한 객관적 화질 평가를 위한 평균 PSNR에서 TMN5보다 휘도 신호는 -0.3 ～ +0.7dB의 차이를 보이고 색차 신호에서는 1.5dB 정도의 개선을 나타냈다. 결과적으로 주관적 화질평가에서는 TMN5에 비하여 더욱 선명한 화질의 영상을 얻을 수 있었다.

In this investigative study, the unit mass discharge for the major water quality parameters such as flowrate, SS, BOD, CODmn, CODcr, TN, TP from textile spinning/weaving industry nearby Nakdong river basin was estimated. To represent the respective industries, three companies from hundreds of textile spinning/weaving industries located in Nakdong river basin was carefully selected based on its manufacturing goods, flowrate and location for the estimation of unit mass discharge based on unit operation and process. There was a drastic decrease of unit mass discharge estimation between influents and effluents of water quality parameters, which represents the removal capacity of wastewater treatment plant. With the advent of new regulation on the imposed payment proportional to the total amount of pollutants discharge into the water body, the concept of cleaner production technology should be employed in the unit operation/process in wastewater treatment plant as well as textile manufacturing procedure to minimize the levy on the pollutants discharge. Unit mass discharge estimations of unit process (estimated in this study) in major water quality parameters (SS, BOD, COD, TN and TP) based on land were similar to those of composite process (estimated by National Institute of Environmental Research). But the unit mass discharge estimations of unit process in BOD and CODmn based on total sale were much higher than those of composite one while in SS, TN and TP similar to each other. For the detailed estimation of the imposed payment, unit mass estimation based on unit process should be further emphasized.

Agriculture nonpoint pollution source is a significant contributor to water quality degradation. To establish effective water quality control policy, environpolitics establishment person must be able to estimate nonpoint source loads to lakes and streams. To meet this need for orchard area, we investigated a real rainfall runoff phenomena about it. We developed nonpoint source runoff estimation models for vineyard area that has lots of fertilizer, compost specially between agricultural areas. Data used in nonpoint source estimation model gained from real measuring runoff loads and it surveyed for two years(2008-2009 year) about vineyard. Nonpoint source runoff loads estimation models were composed of using independent variables(rainfall, storm duration time(SDT), antecedent dry weather period(ADWP), total runoff depth(TRD), average storm intensity(ASI), average runoff intensity(ARI)). Rainfall, total runoff depth and average runoff intensity among six independent variables were specially high related to nonpoint source runoff loads such as BOD, COD, TN, TP, TOC and SS. The best regression model to predict nonpoint source runoff load was Model 6 and regression factor of all water quality items except for was $R^2=0.85$.

Recent technological advances in sensor fabrication and bio-signal processing enabled non-constraint and non-intrusive measurement of human bio-signals. Especially, non-constraint measurement of ECG makes it available to estimate various human health parameters such as heart rate. Additionally, non-constraint ECG measurement of wheelchair user provides real-time health parameter information for emergency response. For accurate emergency response with low false alarm rate, it is necessary to discriminate quality levels of ECG measured using non-constraint approach. Health parameters acquired from low quality ECG results in inaccurate information. Thus, in this study, a machine learning based approach for three-class classification of ECG quality level is suggested. Three sensors are embedded in the back seat, chest belt, and handle of automatic wheelchair. For the two sensors embedded in back seat and chest belt, capacitively coupled electrodes were used. The accuracy of quality level classification was estimated using Monte Carlo cross validation. The proposed approach demonstrated accuracy of 94.01%, 95.57%, and 96.94% for each channel of three sensors. Furthermore, the implemented algorithm enables classification of user posture by detection of contacted electrodes. The accuracy for posture estimation was 94.57%. The proposed algorithm will contribute to non-constraint and robust estimation of health parameter of wheelchair users.
