This study conducts the soft contact lenses user's understanding and contentment of training while at the place of purchase. It is based on a questionnaire to the residents in and outside the Masan area, aged between ten to thirty, who have worn soft contact lenses. It examines the training of using contact lenses and lens-care products, the period of wearing lenses, exchanging lenses, sterilizing lenses, side effects of using lenses or the periodic examination, and the understanding and contentment of the users during the training. The results of the research are as below : First, the understanding of training of using lenses, using lens-care products, the period of wearing lenses, exchanging lenses was high, but it was low for the training of sterilizing lenses, side effects of wearing lenses or the periodic examination. Second, the contentment of training of using lenses, lens-care products, the period of wearing lenses, exchanging lenses was high, but low for the training of sterilizing lenses, side effects of wearing lenses or the periodic examination. Therefore, the trainer of the contact lenses must easily and sincerely explain sterilizing lenses, the side effects of using lenses and the periodic examination, cheek with the users, and provide guidelines so as to improve the understanding and the contentment of training of using contact lenses.

In this study, entropy definition and explanation in twelve general chemistry textbooks published in USA including what Korean universities select are analyzed. Analysis consists of two parts. One is diachronic analysis which focuses on the change between editions of same authors and the other is contents analysis composed of three sections‐ disorder in entropy definition and explanation, microstates number in entropy definition and explanation, possibility of alternative conception in learning statistical entropy and thermal entropy. As a result, the definition that entropy is the measure of disorder is denied and explanation using microstates number is introduced. Also, caution for the possibility of alternative conception that there are two different entropies is found. Reflecting the change in entropy explanation on new chemistry curriculum and reeducating teachers are meaningful on improvement of Korean chemistry education.

The basic rights of the public for sustaining public accountability relations between public sector organizations and the citizens is the accessibility to information of public sector organizations. Public organizations in Korea get checked under multiple public accountability relations, which increases steadily the information provision requests from stakeholders. To respond these requirements effectively and efficiently, public sector organizations are required to transform their information management regime to comply with accountability-oriented settings. This study (1) suggests procedures and methods to select 'information for accountability' from the organization's whole information as an important object to be managed, (2) suggests procedures and methods to establish control criteria for the organization to manage its information for accountability in appropriate ways, and (3) gives an example of applying the procedures and methods to the specific context of universities' information disclosure. The procedures and methods suggested are described from a viewpoint of the consulting for the accountability information management regime.

This study investigates levels of thinking of elementary and middle school students doing their tasks of explaining and dealing with variability. According to results, on the task of explaining variability in the measurement settings five levels of thinking were identified: a lack of understanding of explanation of the causes, an insufficient understanding of the causes, an offer of physical causes, consideration of unexplained causes as the source of variability, and consideration of unexplained causes as quasi-chance variability. Also, in the chance settings five levels of thinking were identified: a lack of understanding of explanation of the causes, an insufficient understanding of the causes, an offer of physical causes, recognition of chance variability, and consideration of causes of distribution. On the task of dealing with variability in both the measurement and chance settings five levels of thinking were identified: a lack of understanding of dealing with variability, no physical control and improper statistical control, no physical control and proper statistical control, physical control and improper statistical control, and physical control and proper statistical control.

An informative predictor subspace is useful to estimate the central subspace, when conditions required in usual suffcient dimension reduction methods fail. Recently, for multivariate regression, Ko and Yoo (2022) newly defined a projective-resampling informative predictor subspace, instead of the informative predictor subspace, by the adopting projective-resampling method (Li et al. 2008). The new space is contained in the informative predictor subspace but contains the central subspace. In this paper, a method directly to estimate the informative predictor subspace is proposed, and it is compapred with the method by Ko and Yoo (2022) through theoretical aspects and numerical studies. The numerical studies confirm that the Ko-Yoo method is better in the estimation of the central subspace than the proposed method and is more efficient in sense that the former has less variation in the estimation.

딥러닝(Deep-learning) 기반의 자연어 이해(Natural Language Understanding) 기술들은 최근에 상당한 성과를 성취했다. 하지만 딥러닝 기반의 자연어 이해 기술들은 내적인 동작들과 결정에 대한 근거를 설명하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 벡터를 그래프로 변환함으로써 신경망의 내적인 의미 표현들을 설명할 수 있도록 한다. 먼저 인간과 기계 모두가 이해 가능한 표현방법의 하나로 그래프를 주요 표현방법으로 선택하였다. 또한 그래프의 구성요소인 노드(Node) 및 엣지(Edge)의 결정을 위한 Element-Importance Inverse-Semantic-Importance(EI-ISI) 점수와 Element-Element-Correlation(EEC) 점수를 심층신경망의 훈련방법 중 하나인 드랍아웃(Dropout)을 통해 계산하는 방법을 제안한다. 다양한 실험들을 통해, 본 연구에서 제안한 벡터-그래프(Vector2graph) 변환 프레임워크가 성공적으로 벡터의 의미정보를 유지하면서도, 설명 가능한 그래프를 생성함을 보인다. 더불어, 그래프 기반의 새로운 시각화 방법을 소개한다.

Thanks to the remarkable success of Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) techniques, a new possibility for its application on the real-world problem has begun. One of the prominent applications is the bankruptcy prediction model as it is often used as a basic knowledge base for credit scoring models in the financial industry. As a result, there has been extensive research on how to improve the prediction accuracy of the model. However, despite its impressive performance, it is difficult to implement machine learning (ML)-based models due to its intrinsic trait of obscurity, especially when the field requires or values an explanation about the result obtained by the model. The financial domain is one of the areas where explanation matters to stakeholders such as domain experts and customers. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to incorporate financial domain knowledge into local rule generation to provide explanations for the bankruptcy prediction model at instance level. The result shows the proposed method successfully selects and classifies the extracted rules based on the feasibility and information they convey to the users.

산업계 전반에 걸친 오랜 정보시스템 운용의 결과로 대용량의 데이타들이 축적되고 있다. 이러한 데이타로부터 유용한 지식을 추출하기 위해 여러 가지 데이타 마이닝 기법들이 연구되어왔다. 특히 데이타 웨어하우스의 등장은 이러한 데이타 마이닝에 있어 필요한 데이타 제공 환경을 제공해 주고 있다. 그러나 전문가의 적절한 판단과 해석을 거치지 않은 데이타 마이닝의 결과는 당연한 사실이거나, 사실과 다른 가짜이거나 또는 관련성이 없는(trivial, spurious and irrelevant) 내용만 무수히 쏟아낼 수 있다. 그러므로 데이타 마이닝의 결과가 비록 통계적 유의성을 가진다 하더라고 그 정당성과 유용성에 대한 검증과정과 방법론의 정립이 필요하다. 데이타 마이닝의 가장 어려운 점은 귀납적 오류를 없애기 위해 사람이 직접 그 결과를 해석하고 판단하며 아울러 새로운 탐색 방향을 제시해야 한다는 것이다. 본 논문의 목적은 이러한 데이타 마이닝에서 추출된 결과를 검증하고 아울러 새로운 지식 탐색 방향을 제시하는 방법론을 정립하는데 있다. 본 논문에서는 데이타 마이닝 기법 중 연관규칙탐사로 얻어진 결과를 설명가능성 여부의 판단을 통해 검증하는 기법을 제안하며, 이를 통해 얻어진 검증된 지식을 토대로 일반화를 통한 새로운 가설을 생성하여 데이타 웨어하우스로부터 연관규칙을 검증하는 일련의 아키텍쳐(architecture)를 제시하고자 한다. 먼저 데이타 마이닝 결과에 대한 설명의 필요성을 제시하고, 데이타 웨어하우스와 데이타 마이닝 기법들에 대한 간략한 설명과 연관규칙탐사에 대한 정의 및 방법을 보이고, 대상 영역에 대한 데이타 웨어하우스의 스키마를 보였다. 다음으로 도메인 지식(domain knowledge)과 연관규칙탐사를 통해 얻어진 결과를 표현하기 위한 지식표현 방법으로 Relational predicate Logic을 제안하였다. 연관규칙탐사로 얻어진 결과를 설명하기 위한 방법으로는 연관규칙탐사로 얻어진 연관규칙에 대해 Relational Predicate Logic으로 표현된 도메인 지식으로서 설명됨을 보이게 한다. 또한 이러한 설명(explanation)을 토대로 검증된 지식을 일반화하여 새로운 가설을 연역적으로 생성하고 이를 연관규칙탐사론 통해 검증한 후 새로운 지식을 얻는 반복적인 Explanation-based Data Mining Architecture를 제시하였다. 본 연구의 의의로는 데이타 마이닝을 통한 귀납적 지식생성에 있어 귀납적 오류의 발생을 고메인 지식을 통해 설명가능 함을 보임으로 검증하고 아울러 이러한 설명을 통해 연역적으로 새로운 가설지식을 생성시켜 이를 가설검증방식으로 검증함으로써 귀납적 접근과 연역적 접근의 통합 데이타 마이닝 접근을 제시하였다는데 있다.

One of the most intensively conducted research areas in business application study is a bankruptcy prediction model, a representative classification problem related to loan lending, investment decision making, and profitability to financial institutions. Many research demonstrated outstanding performance for bankruptcy prediction models using artificial intelligence techniques. However, since most machine learning algorithms are "black-box," AI has been identified as a prominent research topic for providing users with an explanation. Although there are many different approaches for explanations, this study focuses on explaining a bankruptcy prediction model using a counterfactual example. Users can obtain desired output from the model by using a counterfactual-based explanation, which provides an alternative case. This study introduces a counterfactual generation technique based on a genetic algorithm (GA) that leverages both domain knowledge (i.e., causal feasibility) and feature importance from a black-box model along with other critical counterfactual variables, including proximity, distribution, and sparsity. The proposed method was evaluated quantitatively and qualitatively to measure the quality and the validity.
