This study has sought to analyze factors affecting work and work preference of older adults at national and individual level. A few theoretical hypotheses such as economic need versus job opportunity (or employability), attitude toward paid work, pull effect versus push effect were tested for citizens in eighteen OECD countries with International Social Survey dataset(2005) using multi-level analysis. Main findings are as follows. First, most older adults wanted to work regardless of the socio-economic status, which implies that non-work of older adults would be due to involuntary constraint rather than voluntary choice. Second, there existed class inequality in that the higher class tended to involve paid work more than the lower class did among 55-64 age group. Third, the push factor such as part-time employment ratio, rather than the generosity of social security, explained the work and retirement patterns better. In conclusion, at least from the comparative perspective, the main problem of older adults' work seems to be of labour demand rather than of labour supply, to be of labour market structure and work opportunity rather than of the pull factor.

This is an experimental study to translate the Korean digital topographic maps into distributable information-hide objects, which are designed with object-oriented development's key features ; encapsulation, polymorphism, inheritance, In order to achieve this goal , the characteristics of the data mode and inter-relationships of digital topographic maps are investigated . As a result, it is revealed that the current Korean digital topographic maps, which is organized into so many individual layers of mixed spatial and attributed data, have to explicit and concrete hierarchies in spatial data model and data definition . Due to this limitation , data layer stage and object class stage are integrated. And ISCO(the is-computer -of relationships) mechanism is mainly used to develop the objects of digital topogrpahic maps, which is implemented with spatial primitive classes. the designed objects are coded with JAVA and then testified in web interface.

Understanding extreme precipitation events is very important for flood planning purposes. Especially, the r-year return level is a common measure of extreme events. In this paper, we present a spatial analysis of precipitation return level using hierarchical Bayesian modeling. For intensity, we model annual maximum daily precipitations and daily precipitation above a high threshold at 62 stations in Korea with generalized extreme value(GEV) and generalized Pareto distribution(GPD), respectively. The spatial dependence among return levels is incorporated to the model through a latent Gaussian process of the GEV and GPD model parameters. We apply the proposed model to precipitation data collected at 62 stations in Korea from 1973 to 2011.

Principal component analysis (PCA) describes the variation of multivariate data in terms of a set of uncorrelated variables. Since each principal component is a linear combination of all variables and the loadings are typically non-zero, it is difficult to interpret the derived principal components. Sparse principal component analysis (SPCA) is a specialized technique using the elastic net penalty function to produce sparse loadings in principal component analysis. When data are structured by groups of variables, it is desirable to select variables in a grouped manner. In this paper, we propose a new PCA method to improve variable selection performance when variables are grouped, which not only selects important groups but also removes unimportant variables within identified groups. To incorporate group information into model fitting, we consider a hierarchical lasso penalty instead of the elastic net penalty in SPCA. Real data analyses demonstrate the performance and usefulness of the proposed method.

Recently, much attention has been focused on video databases. Video documents also have a hierarchical logical structure like text documents. By exploiting this structure using structure queries, users can obtain greater benefits than by using only content queries. In order to process structure queries efficiently, an index structure supporting fast video element access must be provided. However, there has been little attention to the index structure for video documents. In this paper, we present a tree-structured video document model and a new inverted index structure for video documents. We evaluate the storage requirement and the disk access time of the scheme and present the analytical results.

The conventional studies on equilibrium network design problem(ENDP) with fixed travel demand models assume that the future OD travel demand might not be changed even if the structure and the capacity of the network are improved. But this fixed demand assumption may loose its validity in the long-range network design because OD travel demand actually shifts with the network service level. Thus, it is desirable to involve the variable travel demand which is determined endogenously in the model in the optimal network design. In this paper a hi-level model formulation and solution procedure for ENDP with variable travel demand are presented. Firstly It is considered how to measure the net user benefits to be derived from the improved in link capacities, and the equilibrium network design problem considered here is to maximize the increase of net user benefit which results from a set of lift capacity enhancements within the budget constraints, while the OD travel demands and link travel times are obtained by solving the lower level network equilibrium problem with variable demand. And secondly sensitivity analysis is carried out to find the links to which the network equilibrium flow pattern is the most sensitive. Finally numerical example with simple network is carried out to test the validity of the model.

Information visualization in information retrieval is a creating tool that enables us to observe, manipulate, search, navigate, explore, filter, discover, understand, interact with large volumes of data for more rapidly and far more effectively to discover hidden patterns. The focus of this study is to investigate and analyze information visualization techniques in information retrieval system in the three-schematic levels. In result, it was found that first, scientific data, documents, and retrieval result information are visualized through various techniques. Second, information visualization techniques which facilitate navigation and interaction are zoom and pan, focus+context techniques, incremental exploration, and clustering. Third, the visual metaphors used by the visualization systems are presented in the linear structure, hierarchy structure, network structure, and vector scatter structure.

The Neyman-Scott Rectangular Pulses Model (NSRPM) is mainly used to construct hourly rainfall series. This model uses a modest number of parameters to represent the rainfall processes and underlying physical phenomena, such as the arrival of storms or rain cells. In NSRPM, the method of moments has often been used because it is difficult to know the distribution of rainfall intensity. Recently, approximated likelihood function for NSRPM has been introduced. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical model for applying a spatial structure to the NSRPM parameters using the approximated likelihood function. The proposed method is applied to summer hourly precipitation data observed at 59 weather stations (Korea Meteorological Administration) from 1973 to 2011.

추계학적 강우생성모형 중 포아송 클러스터(Poisson Cluster) 모형은 단일지점에 대하여 시간강우량의 관측연한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 강우모형으로 강우 단계별 계층적 구조를 이해하는데 유용한 모형이다. 특히 강우 특성을 계절, 지역 등과 같이 비교하는 기준에 따라 5~6개의 비교적 적은 매개변수들로 모의 강우시계열을 생성할 수 있다는 점에서 장기간 강우분석에 필요한 관측연한 문제를 보완할 수 있다. 그러나 매개변수 최적해가 수렴되지 않는 사례가 많고, 매개변수들이 강우의 물리적 특성을 반영하는 것에 비해 내포된 불확실성에 관한 연구는 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 포아송 클러스터 강우생성모형 중 Neyman-Scott Rectangular Pulse(NSRP) 모형을 Bayesian 모형과 연계한 Bayesian NSRP 모형을 개발하여 매개변수간 물리적 상관성을 고려한 최적화 기법을 개발하였다. Bayesian 모형은 물리적 범위가 다른 매개변수간의 결합확률분포를 산정하여 사후분포(posterior)를 추정하므로 매개변수 최적화와 불확실성 정량화 문제를 동시에 해결할 수 있다. 최종적으로 Bayesian NSRP 모형에 기후변화 시나리오의 통계적 특성을 고려한 시간단위 강우시계열 생성 모의 기법의 활용 가능성을 평가하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to identify determinants for preferred funeral methods depending on socio-economic characteristics. In South Korea, the Act on Funeral Services, Etc. categorizes funeral methods into burial, inurnment, and natural burial. This study empirically analyzes how and what socio-economic characteristics affect choices among these three categories. Data is collected from Social Survey 2017 and funeral facilities in the country. The data to be analyzed is developed in terms of a hierarchy which puts the burial and cremation methods in an upper class and the inurnment and natural burial methods in a lower class. Based on this data, a nested logit model is employed to conduct empirical analysis. The analysis indicates that those characteristics that have a statistically significant influence on preferred methods include gender, age, householder, marriage, satisfaction with life, class awareness, monthly income, housing type, housing tenure type, and living in city area. Each variable's modulus of calculated direct and cross elasticity need to be used to analyze the outcome of a nested logit model. In this study, the modulus of direct and cross elasticity are determined for the significant variables. The calculated direct elasticity is applied to analyze the likelihood of choosing each funeral method when there are changes in the significant variables. When a particular method has been selected, on the other hand, the cross elasticity is utilized to analyze changes to the likelihood of choosing the other methods. One of the most notable results is related to natural burial. In order to meet the demand for natural burial, it is necessary to provide more burial sites and raise awareness of natural burial. This will facilitate the efficient use of national territorial space.
