This study presents the credit evaluation model for medical venture business which has been growing within the recent decade. We develop the model with two steps. At the first step, the evaluation indexes for each of the financial and non-financial factors of a firm are listed. At the second step, the weight for each index is measured by using the Analytic Hierarchy Process of Saaty(1980). The financial factors consists of 5 upper level indexes and 10 lower level indexes. The upper level indexes of the financial sector are profitability, safety, utilization, growth, and productivity. And the non-financial factors consists of 5 upper level indexes and 17 lower lever indexes. The upper level indexes in this sector are manager's competence, technical capability, marketability, business validity, and reliability. In order to get the empirical results for our model, we conduct the questionnaire survey targeting the credit assessment officers, who are practicing at the financial institutions or the credit guarantee company located within the Wonju Medical Devices Cluster.

The difference (bias) between self-efficacy and chemistry problem-solving ability was investigated for 96 (male: 48, female: 48) high school students. A self-efficacy instrument was administered, which asked the confidence in solving algorithmic and conceptual problems successfully. Their chemistry problem-solving ability was then assessed with 10 algorithmic and 10 conceptual problems as same in the self-efficacy instrument. Although students had higher scores in the algorithmic problems, no significant difference was found in the self-efficacy to solve the two different forms of problems. Therefore, the bias scores in the conceptual problems were higher than those in the algorithmic problems. Two-way ANOVA results for the bias in the algorithmic problems revealed a significant interaction between gender and the previous achievement level. Analysis of simple effects indicated that the bias scores of high-achieving boys were significantly higher than those of high-achieving girls. While most high-achieving boys were in the overconfident category, high-achieving girls were more likely to be in the underconfident category.

Precedent studies revealed that success of IT project strongly depends on the competency of PMO(project management offices), however, there are only few studies which show the importance of PMO competency. In this study, we will suggest an evaluation model of IT PMO competency using the Pentagon Model which is a tool to assess the performance of project organization, and the Analytic Hierarchy Process. We classified effect factor of PMO competency into 25 items in 5 fields such as Structure, Technology, Culture, Interaction, Social Relations and Networks based on pentagon model, also analysis of criticality between the effect factors was conducted by AHP. The study result shows 3 factors of Structure were included in the top 10, while 2 factors of Technology, Culture, Interaction were included separately. In terms of Social Relations and Networks, only 1 factor was included in the top 10. Therefore Structure of PMO should be aggressively considered for the successful IT project.

The problem of top-${\kappa}$ set similarity joins finds the top-${\kappa}$ pairs of records ranked by their similarities between two sets of input records. We propose an efficient algorithm to return top-${\kappa}$ similarity join pairs using a sampling technique. From a sample of the input records, we construct a histogram of set similarity joins, and then compute an estimated similarity threshold in the histogram for top-${\kappa}$ join pairs within the error bound of 95% confidence level based on statistical inference. Finally, the estimated threshold is applied to the traditional similarity join algorithm which uses the min-heap structure to get top-${\kappa}$ similarity joins. The experimental results show the good performance of the proposed algorithm on large real datasets.

This study aims to analyze the changes in the management efficiency of public institutions in time series, and to examine the relationship with financial performance based on the results of time series changes. Specifically, we classified into upper and lower groups of financial performance based on the government's management evaluation results, and analyze how the management efficiency of each group changed in the period before the evaluation year. Based on public institutions published in public business information system, DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) was performed for estimating management efficiency. The results are summarized as follows; First, we find that DEA of the upper group changed in the direction of increasing, but DEA of the lower group changed in the direction of decreasing. Second, we find that there is a significant positive relation between DEA and financial performance. This result means that the higher financial performance, the higher management efficiency. These findings imply that management efficiency can be a factor that improve financial performance in public institutions. The results also suggest that government's innovation strategies to improve financial stability by enhancing management efficiency were effective.

This study aimed to analyze achievement characteristics of Korean students in the results of PISA 2018 science domain. To this end, the characteristics of PISA 2009 to PISA 2018 science were analyzed in terms of the percentage of each performance level and the ratio of male and female by achievement level; in addition, the percentage of correct answers by framework subscale was compared with PISA 2015. The results showed that Korea has a higher percentage of students at the lower level of achievement as compared to the high-ranking countries of PISA, and the ratio of students at the higher level of achievement was lower. On average, the difference in achievement between boys and girls was negligible; however, but at the higher achievement level, the ratio of boys continued to be higher than that of girls. In addition, in the PISA science framework, the percentage of correct answers of the questions corresponding to 'personal' of 'contexts', 'evaluate and design scientific enquiry' of 'competencies', 'epistemic' of 'knowledge', and 'high' of 'cognitive demand' increased; similarly, and achievement improved as compared to PISA 2015. Based on these results of the study, we propose a method for improving teaching and evaluation to foster Korean students' scientific competence.

블로그와 관련된 초기의 연구들은 주로 블로그를 사용하는 사용자를 동질성을 지닌 그룹으로 보고 연구를 진행하였다. 하지만 최근 블로그 인구가 크게 증가하여, 더 이상 동질성을 지는 그룹으로 보기에는 한계가 있다. 본 논문에서는 블로그 사용자(이하 블로거)를 구분하는 특성 요인을 추출하여, 블로거 세분화 작업을 수행한다. 세분화된 블로거 그룹의 전자상거래 이용행태, 콘텐츠 유료 구매 등과의 연관성을 분석하여 다른 인터넷 유저들과의 상대적 가치에 대해서 평가해보고자 한다. 또한 분석된 블로거 그룹의 특성을 활용하여, 하위 블로거의 상위 블로거로의 전환요인이 무엇인지에 대해서 탐구해보고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of educational context variables on achievement and interest in mathematics in high and low achieving students in Korea. Students participated in TIMSS 2015 in Korea were divided into two groups according to their achievement in mathematics. And the effects of educational context variables on achievement and interest in mathematics were analyzed in each group using the Hierarchical Linear Model(HLM). Main findings of this study are as follows. First, variables which influence achievement also influence interest but any variables which influence interest don't influence achievement in upper-group students. Number of Books and Students' Perceived Mathematics Lessons have strong influence on achievement and interest in both fourth and eighth grade students. Second, variables which influence achievement or interest in mathematics in lower-group also influence achievement or interest in mathematics in upper-group students. But any variables which influence achievement or interest in upper-group students don't influence achievement or interest in lower-group students. For examples, Parents' Education, Students' Perceived Mathematics Lessons have effects on upper-group students' achievement. Number of Books, Home Learning Environment, and Numeracy Activities Before School have significant effects on the achievement of fourth grade students. Students' Perceived Mathematics Lessons is the variable that influence on the interest of both fourth grade and eighth grade students. This study suggests the ways to improve mathematics teaching and learning based on these results.

현행 돼지도체 등급제는 육량과 육질을 종합하여 최종적으로 5개 등급으로 판정하고 있다. 이러한 등급판정체계 하에서는 육량이 우수한 도체라 할지라도 육질이 좋지 않을 경우 상위등급(A$\cdot$B등급)으로 판정 받는 것은 어렵고, 마찬가지로 육질이 우수한 도체라 할지라도 육량이 낮을 경우 상위등급으로 판정 받을 수 없다. 그러므로 상위등급은 육질과 육량이 모두 일정수준이상인 도체로 이해하는 것이 바람직하다. 이는 돼지도체의 등급판정 기준이 체중 및 등지방두께와도 밀접한 상관관계를 가지고 있기 때문이다. 일반적으로 돼지의 성장(체중의 증가)이라 함은 일정기간 동안 몸의 질량이 증가하는 현상으로 품종에 따라 고유한 성장률과 성장기 체중이 있고, 단계별로 생체의 각 조직이나 부위가 균형되게 발육하는 것을 말한다. 대개 체조직의 발육순서는 뇌, 골격, 근육, 지방의 순이며, 각 부위의 발육은 머리, 배, 허리의 순으로 이루어진다고 알려져 있다. 따라서 이번 연구조사에서는 돼지 탕박도체의 중량(성장) 증가에 따른 등지방두께와 등심단면적의 변화, 부위별 중량 및 수율의 변화 등을 알아보고, 또 부위별 수율이 등급판정결과와 성별에 따라 어떠한 영향을 받는지에 대해 알아보고자 실시하였다.
