This study analyzed the long-term linear trends of the sea surface height around the Korea marginal seas for the period of 1993~2016 by using quantile regression. We found significant difference about 2~3 mm/year for the linear trend between OLS (ordinary least square) and median (50%) quantile regression especially in the Yellow Sea, which is affected by extreme events. Each area shows different trend for each quantile (lower (1%), median (50%) and upper (99%)). Most areas of the Yellow Sea show increasing trend in both low and upper quantile, but significant "upward divergence tendency". This implies that significant increasing trend of upper quantile is higher than that of lower quantile in this area. Meanwhile, South Sea of Korea generally shows "upward convergence tendency" representing that increasing trend of upper quantile is lower than that of lower quantile. This study also confirmed that these tendencies can be eliminated by removing major tidal components from the harmonic analysis. Therefore, it is assumed that the regional characteristics are related to the long term change of tide amplitude.

It is current situation that a number of issues are being raised how the weight is calculated from customer satisfaction survey. This study investigated how the weight of satisfaction for each quantile is different by comparing ordinary least square regression model to quantile regression model and carried out bootstrap verification to find the influence difference of regression coefficient for each quantile. As the analysis result of using R(Quantreg package) that is open software, it appeared that there was the influence size of satisfaction factor along study result and quantile and there was the significant difference statistically regarding regression coefficient for each quantile. So, to use quantile regression model that offers the influence of satisfaction factor for each customer group along satisfaction level would contribute to plan the quantitative convergence policy for customer satisfaction.

국내에서는 유량자료의 부족으로 수공구조물을 설계하기 위한 기초자료로서 설계강우량을 활용하고 있다. 따라서 설계강우량의 산정 및 시간분포가 중요한 요인으로 작용하고 있으며, 국내에서는 설계강우량 시간분포를 위한 방법으로 Huff의 4분위 방법을 사용하는 것이 일반적이다. 실무에서는 확률강우량도 개선 및 보완연구(Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs, 2011)에서 제시한 관측소별 Huff의 무차원 누가우량 백분율을 이용하여 Huff의 4분위 방법 중 3분위의 자료를 이용하여 시간분포 회귀식을 산정하고 있으며, 회귀식의 차수는 전반적으로 결정계수가 높은 6차식을 사용하고 있다. 회귀식의 경우 고차식으로 갈수록 결정계수가 높아지는 것은 당연하지만 4차 이상의 회귀식에서는 결정계수의 차이가 미미하므로 6차식을 사용하는 것이 합리적이라고 할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 통계적 유의수준에 기초하여 Huff 4분위 방법의 시간분포 회귀식에 대한 유의성 검정을 실시하여 회귀계수에 대한 통계적 검증을 실시하고 변수선택 방법인 전방선택법(Forward Selection)을 이용하여 유의하지 않은 회귀계수들을 제외하면서 가장 좋은 변수들로 구성된 간결한 설계강우량 시간분포 회귀식을 산정하고자 한다. 또한 산정된 회귀식과 기존 확률강우량도 개선 및 보완연구(Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs, 2011)에서 제시한 회귀식과 비교하여 변수선택 방법인 전방 선택법(Forward Selection)을 이용하여 산정된 회귀식의 적합성을 검증하고자 한다.

As the rural areas have experienced the population reduction and the aging, the service level of public transit decreases. This study analyzes the effecting factor to user satisfaction of demand response transport(DRT) as alternative to rural public transit by the quantile regression that aims at estimating either the conditional median or other quantiles of the response variable. Jeonbuk Province tested DRT operations in Dongsang of Wanju County and Sannae of Jeongup City each in 2015. The user DRT satisfaction of Wanju was higher than one of Jeongup in basic statistics analysis. The difference in satisfaction between higher quantile and lower quntile of Wanju is smaller than one of Jeongupy as a result of quantile regression analysis. Also, Wanju DRT continues the second test operation of DRT as satisfaction from Ordinary Least Squares(OLS) close to higher satisfaction quantile.

우리나라에서 강우의 시간분포를 위해 보편적으로 사용되고 있는 방법은 Huff 4분위법으로 강우의 시간적 분포특성을 나타내는 무차원 시간분포곡선을 제시한 것으로, 강우의 지속기간을 4분위로 구분하여 각 분위의 강우량 중 가장 큰 값이 속해 있는 구간을 선택하여 그 구간의 위치에 따라 분위를 정하는 방법이다. 현재 실무에서는 Huff의 분위별 곡선에 대한 회귀식은 지속기간 전반에 걸쳐 정확도가 높은 이유로 6차식을 적용하고 있으나, 통계 모델링에서 간결함의 원리에 따라 회귀식이 간결할 필요가 있으며, 통계적 유의수준에 기초하여 회귀계수를 결정하여야 하므로 유의성 검정 방법을 통한 검정결과를 비교할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 다중회귀분석 방법에 따른 회귀계수 유의성 검정결과 비교를 위하여 구미지역의 무차원 누가우량 백분율을 이용한 시간분포 회귀식을 이용하여 유의성 검정 방법인 분산분석 방법(Analysis of Variance)과 변수선택 방법(Backward Selection)의 검정 결과를 도출 및 비교하였다. 통계프로그램인 프로그래밍 R을 이용하여 변수선택 방법 중 후방제거법 함수를 이용하여 최종 회귀식을 도출하고 또한 7차 회귀식을 분산분석을 이용한 후방제거법으로 회귀계수를 제거하는 방법으로 최종 회귀식을 산정하였다. 분산분석을 이용한 후방제거법의 유의성 검정결과는 프로그래밍 R을 이용한 후방제거법의 결과와 동일한 것으로 분석되었다. 일반적으로 설계강우량의 시간분포를 위한 방법으로 사용되고 있는 Huff의 4분위 방법의 시간분포 회귀식은 회귀계수의 유의성 검정이 이루어지고 있지 않으므로 본 연구결과를 통해 설계강우량 시간분포 회귀식의 유의성 검정방법 제시 및 결과도출과정을 통해 시간분포 회귀식 산정기법으로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This paper analyzes the distribution and determinants of income of the self-employed, in comparison with salaried workers. Relative to salaried workers, in general, the self-employed tend to have a larger dispersion of income and larger heterogeneity. In this regard, the quantile regression analysis was used, along with a typical OLS regression analysis. According to the empirical findings, the income of the self-employed is larger than that of salaried workers, and this difference is larger for higher income group. The marginal effect of education is larger for higher income groups for both the self-employed and salaried workers, implying the return on education is larger for higher income groups. In contrast, for self-employed women, the marginal effect of education is smaller for higher income groups. Put differently, the return on education in the labor market is larger for salaried workers and self-employed men of high income groups as compared to those of low income groups, whereas the opposite holds for self-employed women.

This study focuses on analyzing the glass ceiling effect in arts and culture professionals through the quintile decomposition applied to the RIF unconditional quantile regression and Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition technique. From the industrial viewpoint, we divide arts and culture professionals into cultural contents professionals(large category J industry) and arts professionals(large category R industry). For our analysis, we employ the pooling data of 'Wage Structure Survey' from 2009 to 2016. Our results are summarized as follows. First, as OLS wage decomposition showed that the gender wage gap among the arts professionals was lower than cultural contents professionals, but the discrimination portion of total gender wage gap was larger. Second, from quintile regression decompositions, the glass ceiling effects of two types of professionals showed different results. Cultural contents sector was observed with the "steady glass ceiling effect" as the portion of the discrimination was continuously increased, while the arts sector was observed with the "limited glass ceiling effect" as the discrimination had drastically increased in the 80s and 90s.

For the design of hydraulic structures, the design flood discharge corresponding to a specific frequency is generally used by using the design storm calculated according to the rainfall-runoff relationship. In the past, empirical equations such as rational equations were used to calculate the peak flow rate. However, as the duration of rainfall is prolonged, the outflow patterns are different from the actual events, so the accuracy of the temporal distribution of the probability rainfall becomes important. In the present work, Huff's quartile method is used for the temporal distribution of rainfall, and the third quartile is generally used. The regression equation for Huff's quadratic curve applies a sixth order polynomial equation because of its high accuracy throughout the duration of rainfall. However, in statistical modeling, the regression equation needs to be concise in accordance with the principle of simplicity, and it is necessary to determine the regression coefficient based on the statistical significance level. Therefore, in this study, the statistical significance test for regression equation for temporal distribution of the Huff's quartile method, which is used as the temporal distribution method of design rainfall, is conducted for 69 rainfall observation stations under the jurisdiction of the Korea Meteorological Administration. It is statistically significant that the regression equation of the Huff's quartile method can be considered only up to the 4th order polynomial equation, as the regression coefficient is significant in most of the 69 rainfall observation stations.

This study aims to understand how human capital is related to the inter-regional wage gap between the capital region and the non-capital region in Korea. We focus more specifically on whether the inter-regional wage gap is due to high levels of human capital in the capital region or due to high returns to human capital in the capital region. The decomposition method based on the unconditional quantile regression was used to examine how the relationship between human capital and the inter-regional wage gap varies along the wage distribution. When first estimating earnings functions from the two regions to apply this decomposition method, we included not only conventional indicators of human capital, such as education and on-the-job training, but also occupational skills including cognitive-interactive skills, technical skills, and physical skills. As a result, other things being equal, a large part of the inter-regional wage gap was explained by the human capital variables. Although the composition effect of the human capital variables existed in all the wage quantiles, the more important factor was the wage structure effect of the human capital variables. In addition, among the various human capital variables, the wage structure effect of years of education was a key factor in explaining the inter-regional wage gap. This study is meaningful in that it shows that the relationship between human capital and the inter-regional wage gap may vary depending on the wage quantiles.
