Lately, new influentials have secured a large number of volunteers on social networks due to vitalization of various social media. There has been considerable research on these influential people in social networks but the research has limitations on location information of Location Based Social Network Service(LBSNS). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose a spatial detection methodology and application plan for influentials who make comments about diverse social and cultural issues in LBSNS using spatial statistical analysis methods. Twitter was used to collect analysis object data and 168,040 Twitter messages were collected in Seoul over a month-long period. In addition, 'politics,' 'economy,' and 'IT' were set as categories and hot issue keywords as given categories. Therefore, it was possible to come up with an exposure index for searching influentials in respect to hot issue keywords, and exposure index by administrative units of Seoul was calculated through a spatial joint operation. Moreover, an influential index that considers the spatial dependence of the exposure index was drawn to extract information on the influential areas at the top 5% of the influential index and analyze the spatial distribution characteristics and spatial correlation. The experimental results demonstrated that spatial correlation coefficient was relatively high at more than 0.3 in same categories, and correlation coefficient between politics category and economy category was also more than 0.3. On the other hand, correlation coefficient between politics category and IT category was very low at 0.18, and between economy category and IT category was also very weak at 0.15. This study has a significance for materialization of influentials from spatial information perspective, and can be usefully utilized in the field of gCRM in the future.

The severity and spatial Patterns of spring drought on the croplands arc investigated using satellite imagery(Landsat ETM+). It is necessary to analyze the area droughty conditions in order to decrease the damage and make the efficient policies. In this context, the information about soil moisture levels, which were fatal factors to the crop growth, was acquired from wetness calculated from Tasseled cap transformation. We confirmed that the wetness values have a strong correlation with NDVI and the principal components. The result showed that the intensity of vegetation covering the surface could be understood as the index of the impacts of drought on croplands and these relationships were effective to classify dry areas in satellite imagery.

Distribution pattern of seawater intrusion was analyzed from the spatial distribution map of chloride using the geostatistics and CIS analyses. The chloride distribution map made by kriging(ordinary kriging and co-kriging) after exploratory spatial data analysis. Kriging provides an advanced methodology which facilitates quantification of spatial features and enables spatial interpolation. TDS, Na$^{＋}$, Br$^{[-10]}$ were selected as second parameters of co-kriging which is higher value of correlation coefficients between chloride and others groundwater properties. Chloride concentration is highest in yeminchon and coastal area. And result in co-kriging was accurate than ordinary kriging.

In the present age, the quality of MT(magnetotellurics) data highly depends on the level of industrial interference in data. We analyzed the correlation between the spatial distributions of man-made EM noise source and the characteristics of MT data. The noise source analysis shows the correlation between the noise source density and the power spectral density of measured magnetic field in the frequency band of 60 Hz harmonics. In the MT 'dead band', the strong polarization observed on the magnetic field reveals that the severe artificial noises are caused by the adjacent metropolis.

Normalization transforms one parent genotype to be consistent with the other before crossover. In this paper, we explain how normalization alleviates the difficulties caused by non-synonymously redundant encodings in genetic algorithms. We define the encodings with maximally non-synonymous property and prove that the encodings induce uncorrelated search spaces. Extensive experiments for a number of problems show that normalization transforms the uncorrelated search spaces to correlated ones and leads to significant improvement in performance.

In this paper, we conducted panel data analysis considering spatial correlation between regions, which were not considered in previous papers in analyzing the causes of fine dust concentration in Korea. Many existing researchers implicitly assume the independence of the effects of incomes and other explanatory variables of adjoining countries(or regions). Using panel data on fine dust concentration, this paper has established that existing EKC can be established even when considering the spatial correlation of the region, and when these effects are not taken into account, it can be underestimated or overestimated on the effects and causes of fine dust concentration.

For quantitative analysis of spatio-temporal distribution pattern on marine environment, spatial autocorrelation statistics on the both global and local aspects was applied to the observed data obtained from Gwangyang Bay in South Sea of Korea. Global indexes such as Moran's I and General G were used for understanding environmental distribution pattern in the whole study area. LISAs (local indicators of spatial association) such as Moran's I ($I_i$) and $G_i{^*}$ were considered to find similarity between a target feature and its neighborhood features and to detect hot spot and/or cold spot. Additionally, the significance test on clustered patterns by Z-scores was carried out. Statistical results showed variations of spatial patterns quantitatively in the whole year. Then all of general water quality, nutrients, chlorophyll-a and phytoplankton had strong clustered pattern in summer. When global indexes showed strong clustered pattern, the front region with a negative $I_i$ which means a strong spatial variation was observed. Also, when global indexes showed random pattern, hot spot and/or cold spot were/was found in the small local region with a local index $G_i{^*}$. Therefore, global indexes were useful for observing the strength and time series variations of clustered patterns in the whole study area, and local indexes were useful for tracing the location of hot spot and/or cold spot. Quantification of both spatial distribution pattern and clustering characteristics may play an important role to understand marine environment in depth and to find the reasons for spatial pattern.

웨이블릿을 이용한 분해와 복원은 영상의 압축에 널리 사용되는 도구이다. 웨이블릿 분해된자연 영상은 원 영상의 동일 부분을 표현하는 대역간의 계수 값 사이에 높은 상관관계를 갖고 있고, 하나의 대역 안의 인접한 계수들 사이에도 높은 상관 관계를 갖고 있다. EZW(Evbedded Zerotree Wavelet)나 SPIHT(Set Partitioning in Hierachical Trees)과 같이 성능이 우수하고 널리 사용되는 웨이블릿 기반 영상 압축은 웨이블릿 계수의 대역간 상관 관계를 이용하고 있다. Zero Tree에 기초한 이와 같은 방법들은 계수값의 부모 후손 관계를 이용하기 때문에 대역별 부호화를 수행할 수 없으며, 다중 해상도 복원이 필요한 응용 분야에 효과적으로 적용되어지지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 하나의 대역 내에서 인접한 계수들 간의 상관성을 이용한 대역 독립적 부호화 기법을 제안한다. 압축 성능은 SPIHT과 대등하거나 약간 우수한 것으로 나타났고, 다중해상도 복원에 효과적으로 적용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

An analysis of covariance and Pearson correlation coefficient were performed to identify the relationship between both variables: traffic volume and crack. For this, it was carried out to analyse 216 tunnel inspection/diagnosis results with respect to the traffic. As a result, it has been proven that traffic volume and cracks in concrete linings are highly correlated. Therefore, it is recommended to consider traffic volume in planning of preemptive maintenance such as crack repair, etc.

Reliability of the estimation is usually damaged in the situation where a linear regression model without spatial dependencies is employed to the spatial data analysis. In this study, we considered the conditional autoregressive model in order to construct spatial association structures and estimate the parameters via the Bayesian approaches. Finally, we compared the performances of the models with spatial effects and the ones without spatial effects. We analyzed the yearly total crime count data measured from each of 25 districts in Seoul, South Korea in 2007.
