Reasonable prediction of bridge deterioration is the most important factor in the determination of repair time or optimized maintenance policy for bridges. To accomplish these purposes, the proposed method is composed of quantitative condition assessment, Markov chains and Bayesian estimates. Example predictions of concrete slab bridges in Korea were illustrated with higher reasonability than those of existing methods such as expert opinion and visual inspection only.

This paper presents a shelf life assessment for K-1 military gas masks in the Republic of Korea using test data of Chemical Materiels Stockpile Reliability Program(CSRP). For the shelf life assessment, over 2,500 samples between 2006 and 2015 were collected from field tests and analyzed to estimate a probability of proper and improper functionality using Bayesian estimation. For this, three stages were considered; a pre-processing, a processing and an assessment. In the pre-processing, major components which directly influence the shelf life of the mask were statistically analyzed and selected by applying principal component analysis from all test components. In the processing, with the major components chosen in the previous stage, both proper and improper probability of gas masks were computed by applying Bayesian estimation. In the assessment, the probability model of the mask shelf life was analyzed with respect to storage periods between 0 and 29 years resulting in between 66.1 % and 100 % performances in accuracy, sensitivity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value.

AWGN(Addictive white gaussian noise)에 의해 영상은 자주 훼손되곤 한다. 최근 이를 복원하기위해 웨이블릿(Wavelet) 영역에서의 베이시안(Bayesian) 추정법이 연구되고 있다. 웨이블릿 변환된 영상 신호의 밀도 함수(pdf)는 표족한 첨두와 긴 꼬리(long-tail)를 갖는 경망이 있다. 이러한 사전 밀도 함수(a priori probability density function)를 상황에 적합하게 추정한다면 좋은 성능의 복원 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 빈번이 제안되는 릴도 함수로 가우시안(Gaussian) 분포 참수와 라플라스(Laplace) 분포 함수가 있다. 이들 각각의 모델은 훌륭히 변환 계수들을 모델링하며 나름대로의 장점을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는 가우시안 분포와 라플라스(Laplace) 분포의 혼합 분포 모델을 밀도 함수로 제안하여, 이 들의 장점을 종합하였다. 이를 MAP(Maximum a Posteriori) 추정 방법에 적용하여 잡음을 제거 하였다. 그 결과 기존의 알고리즘에 비해 시각적인 면(Visual aspect), 수치적인 면(PSNR), 그리고 연산량(Complexity) 측면에서 망상된 결과를 얻었다.

This study investigates the relationship between the geochemical maps and the gold-silver deposit locations. Geochemical maps of 21 elements, which are published by KIGAM, locations of gold-silver deposits, and 1:1,000,000 scale geological map of Korea are utilized far this investigation. Pixel size of the basic geochemical maps is 250m and these data are resampled in 1km spacing for the statistical analyses. Relationship between the mine location and the geochemical data are investigated using bayesian statistics and decision tree algorithms. For the bayesian statistics, each geochemical maps are reclassified by percentile divisions which divides the data by 5, 25, 50, 75, 95, and $100\%$ data groups. Number of mine locations in these divisions are counted and the probabilities are calculated. Posterior probabilities of each pixel are calculated using the probability of 21 geochemical maps and the geological map. A prediction map of the mining locations is made by plotting the posterior probability. The input parameters for the decision tree construction are 21 geochemical elements and lithology, and the output parameters are 5 types of mines (Ag/Au, Cu, Fe, Pb/Zn, W) and absence of the mine. The locations for the absence of the mine are selected by resampling the overall area by 1 km spacing and eliminating my resampled points, which is in 750m distance from mine locations. A prediction map of each mine area is produced by applying the decision tree to every pixels. The prediction by Bayesian method is slightly better than the decision tree. However both prediction maps show reasonable match with the input mine locations. We interpret that such match indicate the rules produced by both methods are reasonable and therefore the geochemical data has strong relations with the mine locations. This implies that the geochemical rules could be used as background values oi mine locations, therefore could be used for evaluation of mine contamination. Bayesian statistics indicated that the probability of Au/Ag deposit increases as CaO, Cu, MgO, MnO, Pb and Li increases, and Zr decreases.
