The present paper develops a test of the multivariate normality based on nonlinear transformations and the likelihood function. For checking the normality, we test the shape parameter which indexes the family of transformations. A score test and a parametric bootstrap test are used to evaluate the discrepancy between the data and a multivariate normal distribution. In order to compare the performance of our test with the existing tests, a simulation study was carried out for several situations where nuisance parameters have to be estimated. The results showed that the proposed method is superior to the existing methods.

본(本) 연구(硏究)는 한국증권시장에서 대표적 대용시장(代用市場)포트폴리오인 한국종합주가지수(韓國綜合株價指數)와 동일가중지수(同一加重指數)의 효율성에 대한 검증을 Hansen(1982)의 다변량의 GMM에 의하여 실시하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 먼저, 주식수익률자료(株式收益率資料)에 근거한 산업별(産業別)포트폴리오수익률과 초과시장수익률모형(超過市場收益率模型)의 오차항(誤差項)이 정규분포(正規分布)를 벗어남을 증명함으로써 GMM검증방법(檢證方法)의 정당성을 찾고자 하였다. 정규분포에 대한 검증방법(檢證方法)으로서 왜도와 첨도의 검증과 이를 결합한 Jarque-Bera(1980)검증(檢證)을 실시하였다. 둘째로, Hansen(1982)의 GMM을 대용시장(代用市場)포트폴리오의 효율성(效率性) 검증(檢證)에 적용하는 방법에 대한 연구들인 Mackinlay-Richardson(1991), Harvey-Zhou(1993)와 Campbell-Lo-Mackilay(1997) 등을 기초로하여 이들의 방법론을 개선한 3가지의 효율성(效率性) 검증방법(檢證方法)을 제시하였다. 셋째로, 이상의 검증방법(檢證方法)들을 토대로 1980년 1월부터 1997년 6월까지 월별주식수익률(月別株式收益率)의 자료(資料)를 11업종으로 분류하여 산업별(産業別)포트폴리오수익률(收益率)과 초과시장수익률모형(超過市場收益率模型)에 의한 오차항(誤差項)이 정규분포(正規分布)를 따르는지와 아울러 대용시장(代用市場)포트폴리오의 효율성을 검증하였다. 검증결과(檢證結果), 산업별(産業別)포트폴리오수익률과 오차항(誤差項)은 대부분 정규성이 기각(棄却)되어 GMM검증방법(檢證方法)의 정당성이 입증되었다. 따라서 GMM에 의한 효율성(效率性)을 검증한 결과, 한국종합주가지수(韓國綜合株價指數)의 경우에는 평균-분산(平均-分散)프론티어(mean-variance frontier)상(上)에서의 대용시장(代用市場)포트폴리오의 효율성(效率性)은 기각(棄却) 할 수 없는 것으로 나타났으나 평균수익률(平均收益率)이 GMVP의 수익률보다 낮았기 때문에 효율적(效率的) 프론티어(efficient frontier)상(上)의 대용시장(代用市場)포트폴리오의 효율성(效率性)은 기각(棄却)되어 대용시장지수로서의 문제점이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 동일가중지수(同一加重指數)는 평균수익률이 GMVP의 수익률보다 높을 뿐만아니라 효율적(效率的) 프론티어상(上)의 대용시장(代用市場)포트폴리오의 효율성(效率性)도 채택되어 한국종합주가지수(韓國綜合株價指數)보다 우월한 지수(指數)인 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, we study efficient gene selection methods by using conditional mutual information. We suggest gene selection methods using conditional mutual information based on semiparametric methods utilizing multivariate normal distribution and Edgeworth approximation. We compare our suggested methods with other methods such as mutual information filter, SVM-RFE, Cai et al. (2009)'s gene selection (MIGS-original) in SVM classification. By these experiments, we show that gene selection methods using conditional mutual information based on semiparametric methods have better performance than mutual information filter. Furthermore, we show that they take far less computing time than Cai et al. (2009)'s gene selection but have similar performance.

An algorithm for the Hill-Sliding Clustering (HSC) method was developed using the BASIC language for Apple II personal computer. It was designed for initialization of clusters from multivariate multimodal Gaussian data. Landsat multispectral imagery data of a Korean coastal area were used for its performance test. The test showed encouraging results.

The augmenting hydrologic data using a correlation procedue has been used to improve the estimates of the mean and variance at the site of interest with short record when one or more nearby sites with longer records are available. The variance of the unbiased maximum likelihood estimator of ${{\sigma}_v}^2$ derived by Moran based on the multivariate normal distribution is modified into the form of Matalas and jacobs for the bivariate normal distribution to get the critical minimum values of the multiple correlation coefficient which give the improvement for estimation the variance at the site of interest. Those values are tabulated for various lengths of records and the number of sites.

We investigate the potential of digital elevation model and multivariate geostatistical kriging in mapping of temperature and rainfall based on sparse weather station observations. By using elevation data which have reasonable correlation with temperature and rainfall, and are exhaustively sampled in the study area, we try to generate spatial distributions of temperature and rainfall which well reflect topographic effects and have less smoothing effects. To illustrate the applicability of this approach, we carried out a case study of Jeju island using observation data acquired in January, April, August, and October, 2005. From the case study results, accounting for elevation via colocated cokriging could reflect detailed topographic characteristics in the study area with less smoothing effects. Colocated cokriging also showed much improved prediction capability, compared to that of traditional univariate ordinary kriging. According to the increase of the magnitude of correlation between temperature or rainfall and elevation, much improved prediction capability could be obtained. The decrease of relative nugget effects also resulted in the improvement of prediction capability.

Spatial estimation of geoscience data (geo-data) is challenging due to spatial heterogeneity, data scarcity, and high dimensionality. A novel spatial estimation method is needed to consider the characteristics of geo-data. In this study, we proposed the application of Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) among machine learning algorithms with multivariate data for robust spatial predictions. The performance of the proposed approach was tested through soil chemical concentration data from a former smelting area. The concentrations of As and Pb determined by ex-situ ICP-AES were the primary variables to be interpolated, while the other metal concentrations by ICP-AES and all data determined by in-situ portable X-ray fluorescence (PXRF) were used as auxiliary variables in GMM and ordinary cokriging (OCK). Among the multidimensional auxiliary variables, important variables were selected using a variable selection method based on the random forest. The results of GMM with important multivariate auxiliary data decreased the root mean-squared error (RMSE) down to 0.11 for As and 0.33 for Pb and increased the correlations (r) up to 0.31 for As and 0.46 for Pb compared to those from ordinary kriging and OCK using univariate or bivariate data. The use of GMM improved the performance of spatial interpretation of anthropogenic metals in soil. The multivariate spatial approach can be applied to understand complex and heterogeneous geological and geochemical features.

Various geological thematic maps have been generated by interpolating sparsely sampled ground survey data and geostatistical kriging that can consider spatial correlation between neighboring data has widely been used. This paper applies multi-variate geostatistical algorithms to integrate secondary information with sparsely sampled ground survey data for geological thematic mapping. Simple kriging with local means and kriging with an external drift are applied among several multi-variate geostatistical algorithms. Two case studies for spatial mapping of groundwater level and grain size have been carried out to illustrate the effectiveness of multi-variate geostatistical algorithms. A digital elevation model and IKONOS remote sensing imagery were used as secondary information in two case studies. Two multi-variate geostatistical algorithms, which can account for both spatial correlation of neighboring data and secondary data, showed smaller prediction errors and more local variations than those of ordinary kriging and linear regression. The benefit of applying the multi-variate geostatistical algorithms, however, depends on sampling density, magnitudes of correlation between primary and secondary data, and spatial correlation of primary data. As a result, the experiment for spatial mapping of grain size in which the effects of those factors were dominant showed that the effect of using the secondary data was relatively small than the experiment for spatial mapping of groundwater level.
