We consider a distributed estimation where many nodes remotely placed at known locations collect the measurements of the parameter of interest, quantize these measurements, and transmit the quantized data to a fusion node; this fusion node performs the parameter estimation. Noting that quantizers at nodes should operate in a non-regular framework where multiple codewords or quantization partitions can be mapped from a single measurement to improve the system performance, we propose a low-weight estimation algorithm that finds the most feasible combination of codewords. This combination is found by computing the weighted sum of the possible combinations whose weights are obtained by counting their occurrence in a learning process. Otherwise, tremendous complexity will be inevitable due to multiple codewords or partitions interpreted from non-regular quantized data. We conduct extensive experiments to demonstrate that the proposed algorithm provides a statistically significant performance gain with low complexity as compared to typical estimation techniques.

The transition diagram, as well as the regular expression, can be used as a formal description for a language acceptable by a finite automaton or for the behavior of a sequential switching circuit. But, if we are given one of these two descriptions, we shall find that it is not easy to get the other counterpart description. This paper is to show an easy method to find the equivalet regular expression from the transition diagram, by the aid of a graph-transformation technique.

A new three-dimensional transition solid element was presented for the automated three-dimensional adaptive h-refinement or the local mesh refinement where the steep stress gradient exists. The proposed transition element was established by adding variable nodes(element nodes) to basic 8-node for an effective connection between the refined region and the coarse region with minimum degrees of freedom possible. To be consistent in accuracy with 8-node solid element with nonconforming modes, this transition element was also improved through the addition of the modified nonconforming modes. Numerical examples show that the performance of the element and the applicability to 3D adaptations are satisfactory.

We consider parameter estimation in distributed systems in which measurements at local nodes are quantized in a non-regular manner, where multiple codewords are mapped into a single local measurement. For the system with non-regular quantization, to ensure a perfect independent encoding at local nodes, a local measurement can be encoded into a set of a great number of codewords which are transmitted to a fusion node where estimation is conducted with enormous computational cost due to the large cardinality of the sets. In this paper, we propose an efficient estimation technique that can handle the non-regular quantized data by efficiently finding the feasible combination of codewords without searching all of the possible combinations. We conduct experiments to show that the proposed estimation performs well with respect to previous novel techniques with a reasonable complexity.

In this paper, we investigate the impacts of network topology on the performance of a distributed estimation algorithm, namely combine-then-adaptive (CTA) diffusion LMS, based on the data with or without the assumptions of temporal and spatial independence with noisy links. The study covers different network models, including the regular, small-world, random and scale-free whose the performance is analyzed according to the mean stability, mean-square errors, communication cost (link density) and robustness. Simulation results show that the noisy links do not cause divergence in the networks. Also, among the networks, the scale free network (heterogeneous) has the best performance in the steady state of the mean square deviation (MSD) while the regular is the worst case. The robustness of the networks against the issues like node failure and noisier node conditions is discussed as well as providing some guidelines on the design of a network in real condition such that the qualities of estimations are optimized.

We get the conclusion this following through bibliographic consideration about the cause of disease, disease mechanisms and remedy, prescription of tuberculosis of the cervical lymphic node. 1. The tuberculosis of the cervical Iymphic node is named the linear lump of scrofula(마도라력), the scrofula around neck(반사력), the wide-spread scrofula(류주력), the papule like lotus seed(련자력), the scrofula(라력), the subcutaneous nodes(結核), the scrofula due to disorder of Gi(기력) and the scrofula due to accumulation of phlegm(담력) according to the criterion of regions of disease, causes, rounding parts and shapes. 2. The cause of the tuberculosis of the cervical lymphic node are the stagnation of liver Gi(肝氣鬱結), the accumulation of phlegm and the stagnation of Gi(痰凝氣滯), the deficiency of vital essence of the liver and kidney(肝腎陰虛), the wind-heat of liver, gallbladder and triple warmer(肝膽三焦風熱), the dry-fire(燥火), the dryness of blood(血燥), the unwholesome diet(飮食不潔), the abundance of diet(食味之厚), the stagnation of Gi(鬱氣之積), the exhaustion syndrome(虛勞), the excessive thought(思慮過多), the toxin of wind-heat(風熱毒) and the germ of subcutaneous nodes(結核菌). 3. Symptoms of the tuberculosis of the cervical lymphic node are swelling slowly in comparison in the early days of occurrence, and are not pain, not itch, not heat, not other special symptoms. But in some cases, tuberculosis of the cervical lymphic node are quickly swelling in the early days of occurrence, and the fever and pain appear, The pyosis is accompanied with the fever and the pain at first generally, and then removing the pus from abscess is dissolved the fever and the pain in the majority of cases and representative of the general exhaustion syndrome. 4, The remedy of tuberculosis of the cervical Iymphic node is the early days, clearing the liver and relieves constraint(疏肝解鬱), phlegm and dissolving accumulation(化痰散結) the middle days, pus draining and toxin expelIing(托裏透膿) the latter days, replenish the kidney and strengthen the spleen(滋腎健脾). 5. The medication to treat the tuberculosis of the cervical lymphic node are the 益氣養榮湯(lkgiyangyoungtang)(14th), the 夏枯草散(Hagochosan)(10th) and et cetra in regular sequence. 6. The herb to treat the tuberculosis of the cervical Iymphic node are the 連翹(FRUCTUS FORSYTHlAE)(59th), the 甘草(RADIX GLYCYRRHIZAE)(51th), the 當歸(RADIX ANGELICAE GlGANTIS)(47th), the 黃芩(RADlXSCUTELLARIAE)(40th), the 夏枯草(SPICA PRUNELLAE)(23th) in regular sequence.

In mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs), nodes are mobile in nature. Collaboration between mobile nodes is more significant in MANETs, which have as their greatest challenges vulnerabilities to various security attacks and an inability to operate securely while preserving its resources and performing secure routing among nodes. Therefore, it is essential to develop an effective secure routing protocol to protect the nodes from anonymous behaviors. Currently, game theory is a tool that analyzes, formulates and solves selfishness issues. It is seldom applied to detect malicious behavior in networks. It deals, instead, with the strategic and rational behavior of each node. In our study,we used the dynamic Bayesian signaling game to analyze the strategy profile for regular and malicious nodes. This game also revealed the best actions of individual strategies for each node. Perfect Bayesian equilibrium (PBE) provides a prominent solution for signaling games to solve incomplete information by combining strategies and payoff of players that constitute equilibrium. Using PBE strategies of nodes are private information of regular and malicious nodes. Regular nodes should be cooperative during routing and update their payoff, while malicious nodes take sophisticated risks by evaluating their risk of being identified to decide when to decline. This approach minimizes the utility of malicious nodes and it motivates better cooperation between nodes by using the reputation system. Regular nodes monitor continuously to evaluate their neighbors using belief updating systems of the Bayes rule.

Recently it is used seismic analysis like single mode spectrum analysis, multi mode spectrum analysis and time history analysis in Korea. Because bridges are not special form of them but regular and simple form of them in our country, we must develope seismic analysis program of bridge based on single nude spectrum analysis. The program developed by this study reduces a Quantity and a time of calculation compared to SAP90 and gives accurate answers without errors. In the case of commercial program if we look for seismic load(P/sub e/(x)), we must increase the number of node and the larger the number of node the more a quantity and a time of calculation. But this program is exactly solved with basic node compared to commercial program.
