This paper describes a Web search optimization study that investigates both static and dynamic tuning methods for optimizing system performance. We extended the conventional fusion approach by introducing the "dynamic tuning" process with which to optimize the fusion formula that combines the contributions of diverse sources of evidence on the Web. By engaging in iterative dynamic tuning process, where we successively fine-tuned the fusion parameters based on the cognitive analysis of immediate system feedback, we were able to significantly increase the retrieval performance. Our results show that exploiting the richness of Web search environment by combining multiple sources of evidence is an effective strategy.

Objective : This study analyzed the correlation between cognitive function and oral health-related quality of life (OHQoL). Methods : Demographic and clinical characteristics were extracted and utilized for subjects aged 45 years or older who participated in the 8th Korean Longitudinal Study on Aging in 2020. The dependent variable was the Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index, and the independent variable was the level of cognitive function classified by the Mini-Mental State Examination scores. The analysis method used inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Then, the association between cognitive function and OHQoL was analyzed by multiple regression analysis. Results : Among the participants, 4,367 (71.40%) had normal cognition, 1,155 (18.89%) had moderate cognitive impairment, and 594 (9.71%) had severe cognitive impairment. As a result of analysis by applying IPTW, there was a negative correlation between the cognitive function group and OHQoL (normal vs. moderate: β = -2.534, p < .0001; normal vs. severe: β = -2.452, p < .0001). Conclusion : After propensity score matching, mild cognitive impairment showed a more negative association than severe cognitive impairment. Therefore, patients with cognitive impairment require oral health management education to improve OHQoL regardless of the level of cognitive impairment.

The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of academic stress, subjective happiness, and cognitive flexibility of nursing students, and to identify the mediating effect of cognitive flexibility between learning stress and subjective happiness. The subject of the study was 186 nursing students from a university in J City. The data collection period was from October 4 to October 23, 2023, and the data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0. The results of the study showed a significant correlation between academic stress, cognitive flexibility, and subjective happiness among nursing students, and it was found that cognitive flexibility partially mediated the relationship between academic stress and subjective happiness. Therefore, in order to improve the subjective well-being of nursing students, it is necessary to develop and apply programs that can reduce academic stress and increase cognitive flexibility.

The confluence of computers, communications, and databases is quickly creating a distributed database where many applications require real-time access to temporally consistent sensor data. We have developed an object-oriented real-time database system called BeeHive to provide a significant improvement in performance and functionality over conventional non-real-time database and object management systems. In this paper, the performance of two data-deadline cognizant scheduling policies EDDF and EDF-DC and the baseline EDF policy with/without admission control are evaluated through extensive experiments on BeeHive. The ranges where data-deadline cognizant scheduling policies are effective and where admission control plays a role are identified.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of consulting firm's professional consulting satisfaction on consulting satisfaction. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of consulting firm's brand awareness on consulting satisfaction. The results of this study suggest that consulting firms that have expertise in the field have a positive effect on the satisfaction of consulting and that the higher the brand awareness, the higher the consulting satisfaction. The better the brand awareness, the higher the reliability and the positive impact on the satisfaction of consulting, and the consulting firm including consultant suggests to improve the professional competence in the field.

In this paper, we investigate cooperative spectrum sensing scheme for sensor network-aided cognitive radio systems with energy harvesting capability. In the proposed model, each sensor node harvests ambient energy from environment such as solar, wind, mechanical vibration, or thermoelectric effect. We propose adaptive cooperative spectrum sensing scheme in which each sensor node adaptively carries out energy detection depending on the residual energy in its energy storage and then conveys the sensing result to the fusion center. From simulation results, we show that the proposed scheme minimizes the false alarm probability for given target detection probability by adjusting the number of samples for energy detector.

In this paper, a detection technique of smishing using a TaintDroid is suggested. Suggesting system detects malicious acts by transmitting a URL to the TaintDroid server and installing a relevant application to a virtual device of the TaintDroid server, when a smartphone user receives a text message including the URL suspected as a smishing. Through this we want to distinguish an application that can not install because of suspicion of a smishing in an actual smartphone whether said application is malicious application or not by testing with the virtual device of said system. The detection technique of a smishing using the TaintDroid suggested in this paper is possible to detect in a new form a smishing with a text message and to identifying which application it is through analysis of results from a user.

Most of expert systems,as a rule-based system,should be convenient to modify a rule and to insert a new rule, which is called modularity of rules. When we think correlated evidences in expert systems. conventional systems are too local to recognize the common origin of the information, and they would update the belief of the hypothesis as if it were supposed by independence soureces. In this paper to overcome such drawbacks we propose Fuzzy Belief Network which is based on the Beysian Network which provide the modulartiy between rules. To build Fuzzy Belief Network, we define nodes and links and propose algorithms for data fusion in individual node and for propagation belief value obtained as a result of data fusion.

This study analyzed the effect of CSR activities on SME's depending on the degree of risk perception of business environment. We first classify the analysis target SEM's into two groups according to the degree of risk perception, and to examine whether there is any difference in the effect of CSR activities through latent mean analysis. Findings revealed that at First, CSR activities has a significantly positive effect on the improvement of management performance. Also, risk perceptions motives affect positively on CSR activities, the high risk perceptions group was noted to be strongly the effect of CSR activities.

The problem of congestion in the licensed radio channels spectrum can be solved by Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN). Several algorithms exist to ensure the rendezvous between Secondary Users (SUs), they are increasingly efficient, allowing faster rendezvous under multiple scenarios. In parallel, several jamming algorithms are developed to counter rendezvous which are also improving. The goal in CRN is to ensure the rendezvous by warding such jammers with robust algorithms. In this paper, we classify various jamming techniques and analyze the performance of various well-known rendezvous algorithms under jamming attacks.
