In this paper, we studied the impact of outliers on the power of the significance tests for Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient. Four variables were varied: sample size, the number of items, the number of outliers and population Cronbach Alpha levels. We simulated data using multivariate normal distribution and used outliers sampled from uniform distribution. To test the significance of Cronbach Alpha Reliability, parametric approach(F statistic) and permutation method were used. Consequently, we observed that the powers of permutation test are equal to or greater than those of F test under all conditions, and also both F test and permutation test lose the power as the number of outliers increases, and that these effects of outliers on the power are enhanced for increasing population alpha levels.

A lot of methods are proposed to provide services for object informations in distributed domain to satisfy the recent increase of user-centered services. This paper proposed a method called fuzzy drop manager for the service of reliable distribution application domain objects. The proposed system accesses the domain using replica parameter ci,j and access matrix Z, and evaluates the reference relatedness inside the domain using the relatedness, given by the mapping of intra-domain fuzzy relevance, between fuzzy sets. Objects in the domain generated an $\alpha$-level set according to the reference relatedness obtained by applying $\alpha$-level to extend queries. Simulation results showed that the proposed method has better performance than the other methods.

현재 맥파(ECG; Electrocardiogram) 및 뇌파(EEG: electroencephalography)의 파형 분석기술은 다양하게 적용되고 있으니 이들을 종합적으로 활용한 개인용 건강서비스 개발은 아직 미비 한 상태이다. 본 논문에서는 측정대상자의 정신적 혹은 육체적 피로도를 나타내는 8가지의 지표로서 집중도, 전두엽 비대칭 정도, 좌우뇌 활성도 대칭 값, 알파파 및 베타파 훈련도 (이상은 뇌파 분석 결과), 스트레스 레벨, 심박 수, 자율신경균형도 (이상은 맥파 분석 결과)]를 개인에게 알려주는 생체정보기반 개인건강 관리 소프트웨어 시스템의 설계 및 개발 결과에 대하여 서술한다.

In this paper, when the lighting and communication functions of the visible light communication system are used at the same time, we propose a technique to reduce the dimming level and flicker of the lighting. Visible light communication must satisfy both communication and lighting performance. However, the existing data code method results in reducing the brightness of the entire lighting. This causes deterioration of lighting performance and flicker phenomenon. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose an adaptive learning code allocation technique that allocates binary codes to transmitted characters and optimizes and matches the binary codes allocated according to the frequency of occurrence of alphabets in character strings. Through this, we studied a technique that can faithfully play the role of lighting as well as communication function by allocating codes so that the 'OFF' pattern does not occur continuously while maintaining the maximum dimming level of each character string. As a result of the performance evaluation, the frequency of occurrence of '1' increased significantly without significantly affecting the overall communication performance, and on the contrary, the frequency of consecutive '0' decreased, indicating that the lighting performance of the system was greatly improved.

Recently, many cognitive training programs based on digital contents have been presented, but few digital contents have been produced for children with intellectual disabilities among children with developmental disabilities. Digital contents based training programs are needed to apply remotely untact training programs rather than face-to-face apprenticeship classes for improving the cognition of children with intellectual disabilities. This study was attempted to present the new cognitive training program by analyzing concurrent validity, which was analyzed by the correlation between items by comparing with subtests of K-WISC-IV and items of game based Neuro-World cognitive training program. It was found that there are some validity by analyzing correlation between the subtests of K-WISC-IV and the items of Neuro-World program, which means that it has concurrent validity of some items of Neuro-World program. In terms of reliability, the Cronbach alpha value was 0.794, indicating that game performance of children with intellectual disabilities and the degree of level increase in each game were somewhat reliable. This is considered to be a significant result in future studies for clinical trials of cognitive training tools.
