Applying metric(distance) factor as weighting to spatial syntax is known to not contribute to the explanatory power for the human movement behavior as compared to the geometric(angle) factor according to the negative results of several related studies. However, Kim & Piao (2017) assumed that there is not a problem of the metric factor itself but a problem of the way of applying the metric factor as weighting, and presented a new possibility of the metric factor as weighting by proposing and verifying the methods of applying the metric weighting, which are different from the existing ones. The purpose of this study is to propose advanced methods of applying the metric weighting to space syntax, and to verify whether they contribute to the improvement of explanatory power of space syntax analysis. In this paper, we propose functions for combined depth of distance-step that combine the distance-weighted depth function with the step depth function and apply them to axial segment analysis to check the improvement of explanatory power of them.

This article compares the weighted geometric median with the centroid, from the question why they use the centroid when they would find the single facility location(the weighted geometric median) which minimize the sum of weighted Euclidean distances in some text books and papers. Firstly, we show that the demand point whose volume of demand exceeds the half of total demand is the weighted geometric median differently from the centroid, and we examine the weighed geometric median when every demand point is located on a line. Meanwhile, we could simply see that the geometric median and the centroid are coincident in the special case when every demand point is located at a vertex of a regular polygon, and every volume of demand is equal. Furthermore, the geometric medians of convex tetragons could be simply attained unlike triangles.

This paper studies noise subtraction methods and distance measures for speech recognition in a noisy environment, and investigates noise robustness of the distance measures applied to the problem of isolated word recognition in white Gaussian and colored noise (vehicle noise) environments. Noise subtraction methods which can be used as a pre-processor for the speech recognition system, such as the spectral subtraction method, autocorrelation subtraction method, adaptive noise cancellation and acoustic beamforming are studied, and distance measures such and Log Likelihood Ratio ($d_{LLR}$), cepstral distance measure ($d_{CEP}$), weighted cepstral distance measure ($d_{WCEP}$), spectral slope distance measure ($d_{RPS}$) and cepstral projection distance measure ($d_{CP},\;d_{BCP},\;d_{WCP},\;d_{BWCP}$) are also investigated. Testing of the distance measures for speaker-dependent isolated word recognition in a noisy environment indicate that $d_{RPS}\;and\;d_{WCEP}$ which weigh higher order cepstral coefficients more heavily give considerable performance improvement over $d_{CEP}and\;d_{LLR}$. In addition, when no pre-emphasis is performed, the recognizer can maintain higher performance under high noise conditions.

In weighted random pattern testing it is an important issue to find the optimal weight sets for achieving a high fault coverage using a small number of weighted random patterns. In this paper, a new weight set optimization algorithm is developed, which can generate the optimal weight sets in an efficient way using the sampling probabilities of deterministic tests patterns. In addition, the simulation based method of finding the proper maximum Hamming distance is presented. Experimental results for ISCAS 85 benchmark circuits prove the effectiveness of the new weight set optimization algorithm and the method of finding the proper maximum Hamming distance.

본 논문에서는 서브 블록별 상대적 거리에 따라 적응적으로 가중된 히스토그램 기반 지역적 대조비 향상 기법을 제안한다. 기존 지역적 대조비 향상 기법은 제한적인 공간의 정보만을 이용하기 때문에 과잉 대조비 향상, 결과 영상의 부자연스러움을 초래하는 반면, 제안하는 방법은 서브 블록별 상대적 거리에 반비례하는 가중치를 통해 더 넓은 공간의 정보를 적응적으로 이용하여 과잉 대조비 향상, 결과 영상의 부자연스러움을 효과적으로 방지한다. 실험 결과를 통해 제안하는 방법은 지역적 특성을 강화해주는 동시에 전역적인 자연스러움을 보존하는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

Understanding of water sediment trends is an important part of water quality monitoring. Water quality variables change over time and space, and cannot be modeled or explained clearly by either temporal or spatial analysis alone. This research analysed the trends of temperature, pH levels and dissolved oxygen levels based on the sediment records and spatial data obtained in Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) during 1985-2005. Our aim is to evaluate spatio-temporal trends and graphical analyses using an Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) interpolation method. The main results from this research can be summarized as follows. The maximum temperature and pH have been stable during the study period and the maximum dissolved oxygen has been increasing gradually until 2002. The minimum pH and dissolved oxygen have been changing in an unsteady trend during the period. A spatial analysis shows that the water temperature in this region has been increasing over time. The pH trend shows that it is decreasing during 1993-2005. Dissolved oxygen concentration has been increasing from 1989 onwards and stays in that track.

Performance analysis on RAIM, which is one of the techniques for monitoring integrity to ensure the reliability of GPS, was conducted in this study. RAIM is such a method which allows its user to monitor integrity in the stand-alone mode. Among the existing RAIM procedures, the representative methods including the RCM (Range Comparison Method), LSRM (Least Square Residual Method), Parity approach and WRAIM (Weighted RAIM) were evaluated, and their performance was analyzed. To validate the performance of the implemented algorithms, fault detection was tried on the clock malfunctioning event of PRN 23 occurred on January 1st, 2004. As a result, it was identified that the LSRM and the WRAIM detected all the faults happened in the event. In the case of RCM, all the states of fault were detected except for the error which occurred as a false alarm at one epoch. Furthermore, simulated biases were added for each satellite to analyze the sensitivity of each algorithm. Consequently, when biases of the 9-13 meters range were simulated for the RCM and LSRM algorithm, all the malfunctions were detected. For the WRAIM method, it could detect range biases greater than 15 meters.

This study measured inefficiencies of Korean banks with weighted Russell directional distance function, WRDDM, for the years of 2004-2013. Checking contributions of inputs and outputs to these inefficiencies, we found that non-performing loan as undesirable output was the most influential factor. The annual average of inefficiencies of Korean banks was 0.3912, and it consisted of non-performing loan 0.1883, output factors 0.098 except non-performing loan, input factors 0.098. The annual average inefficiency went sharply up from 0.2995 to 0.4829 mainly due to the sharp increase of inefficiency of non-performing loan from 0.1088 to 0.2678 before and after 2007-2008 Global financial crisis. We empirically showed the non-performing loan needed to be considered since it was the most important factor among the influential factors of technical inefficiency such as manpower, total deposit, securities, and non-performing loan. This study had some limitation since we did not control financial environment factor in WRDDM.

The tree of heaven naturalized plant grows in the various habitats of the city. The principal reason is that it is reproduced not only through sexual reproduction but through asexual reproduction. By the spreading of sucker and a bud appearance of the seed it forms a group easily inside the city habitat. The distribution of seed and spreading of the seedlings of the tree of heaven were investigated like the followings. As the result of the sexual reproduction by the seed and hangs in cluster farm, 350 individuals are germinated at the Namsan the best environment, and 50 individuals at Toegyewon Rotary These seeds are dispersed by the effect of wind and geographical factor. Because the northwest wind is blowing mainly from late autumn to early spring, it is dispersed in the south. In Toegyewon Rotary, a slant site, is dispersed mainly by down the site. Compared with width of crown, the seedling of a seed germination are distributed outside more than inside the crown and the seed is spreaded until the maximum 7.5 times of crown width at the investigated area. 1 year seedlings appeared as a group at the place of 2-4 times of the crown (in 20m from the crown, 75% distribution). Considering the distribution by the seed scattering of the tree of heaven, there is a possibility of sudden individual increase even in the deteriorated city environment. So this possibility shows that we need to consider the protection of the city soil, and the species variety decrease resulted from the successful competition to the other species.
