Faloustsos et al.[1,2] showed successfully that the power-laws describe the heavy-tailed distributions of the AS level Internet topology properties such as node degree. This result allows us to represent the characteristics of AS-level Internet topology using some power-law exponents with elegant and simple. In this paper, we obtained the power-law exponents of the domestic AS-level Internet topology properties - the node degree, the number of pairs within hops, and eigenvalues of the graph - based on the valley-free BGP routing policy. We used the real data sets from UCLA IRL laboratory, and showed that these power-laws fit the real data pretty well resulting in correlation coefficient of 90.7%, 96.5%, and 97%, respectively. In particular, rounding the effective diameter to three, approximately 91% of the pairs of nodes are within this distance; that is, we might conclude our topology is pretty well organized.

Damage location and extent of structure could be detected by the inverse analysis on dynamic response properties such as frequencies and mode shapes. The dynamic response of building structures has many noise and affected by nonstructural members and, above all, the behavior of building structure is more complex than civil structure and this makes the damage detection difficult. In recent researches the damage is detected by the indirect index such as sensitivity or assumed values. However, for the more reasonable damage detection, it needs to use the damage index directly induced from dynamic equation. The purpose of this study is to provide the damage detection method on shear building structures by the damage index directly induced from dynamic equation. The provided damage index could be estimated from measured mode shape of undamaged structure and frequency difference between undamaged and damaged structure. The damage detection method is applied to numerical analysis model such as MATLAB and MIDAS GENw for the verification. The damage index at damaged story represents (-) sign and 15 times than other undamaged sories.

Radio propagation in a high-speed railway is affected by ground reflective waves that are due to irregular reflection by the railway track, which consists of rails, sleepers, and gravel. This paper provides a train radio propagation model that simulates an irregular track reflective wave as a random variable. A simulation study using the train radio propagation model shows that the path loss exponent is around 3.0, indicating a reduced path loss compared to the value of 4.0 in the general mobile radio environment. Regressive analysis of the received signal strength indicators measured in the Gyeongbu high-speed railway showed the results identical to those of the simulation. These results confirm the train radio propagation model and can be applied to the coverage estimation and the design of a train radio network.

Morphometrical data for diploid and induced triploid cherry salmon, Oncorhynchus masou were analyzed prior to the spawning season to compare their commercial values. The following traits were measured with the diploids and induced triploids : ungutted and gutted body weight; body length; dressing percentage; condition factor; gonad weight and gonad index; belly thickness; viscera weight; viscera index; body circumference at the pelvic, dorsal and anal fins; area of the cross sections at the pelvic and dorsal fins; two belly thickness traits measured on each cross section; total height, height and width of each cross section; three body shape traits; and nine cross section shape traits. Body length and body weight of diploids were larger than those of induced triploids and dressing percentage, gonad weight, gonad index, viscera index, and liver index were also larger in diploids. However, induced triploids showed higher values in one belly thickness trait and some section shapes than diploids. Differences in body traits were due to the sterility of induced triploids. Therefore, induced triploid cherry salmon appears to have greater potentials for the commercial values than their diploids.

Seven rice varieties(Suweonjo, Suweon232, BG276-5, IR44, IR41999-139, Suweon230 and Yongjubyeo) were used to study the effect of particle size on the physicochemical properties(proximate analysis, color values, amylogram, water absorption index and water solubility index) of rice flours. Suweonjo had the highest amylose content (27.07%) and Yongjubyeo had the lowest one (17.17%). Suweonjo had the highest protein content (11.36%) and IR44 had the lowest one (6.75%). Protein content of rice flours prepared in a pin mill was decreased as particle size of rice flours decreased. L value of rice flour was increased as particle size of rice flours decreased while b value and ${\Delta}E$ value decreased. Maximum viscosity, cold paste viscosity, breakdown, total setback in amylogram properties were increased as particle size of rice flours decreased while initial paste temperature decreased. Water absorption index (WAI) and water solubility index (WSI) were increased as particle size of rice flour decreased.

Purposes: We studied whether forest bathing is effective in improving the stress of the human body. Therefore, we investigated changes in pulse rate, stress index, and autonomic nervous system after 2 hours of forest bathing on Jeju Samdasu Forest Methods : The study was conducted before and after forest bathing through heart rate variability and questionnaire. Results: After forest bathing, the average pulse rate of the experimental group was significantly increased. The stress index significantly decreased in the post-test in the experimental group. The cumulative stress, sympathetic activity (LF), parasympathetic activity (HF) change, and LF/HF ratio were slightly different from those of post-test in the experimental group, but were not statistically significant. In the survey of job stress average index and state characteristic anxiety index through questionnaire, it decreased significantly after forest bathing (p<.001). Conclusions: The Samdasu forest bathing has been proven effective in enhancing pulse and reducing stress, so it is evaluated that forest bathing is effective in promoting health.

Forecasting volatility is essential to avoiding the risk caused by the uncertainties of an financial asset. Complicated financial volatility features such as ambiguity between non-stationarity and stationarity, asymmetry, long-memory, sudden fairly large values like outliers bring great challenges to volatility forecasts. In order to address such complicated features implicity, we consider machine leaning models such as LSTM (1997) and GRU (2014), which are known to be suitable for existing time series forecasting. However, there are the problems of vanishing gradients, of enormous amount of computation, and of a huge memory. To solve these problems, a causal temporal convolutional network (TCN) model, an advanced form of 1D CNN, is also applied. It is confirmed that the overall forecasting power of TCN model is higher than that of the RNN models in forecasting VIX, VXD, and VXN, the daily volatility indices of S&P 500, DJIA, Nasdaq, respectively.

최근 국내 기후변화와 산업화로 인한 오염물 배출량 증가로 인해 하천 및 호소에 남조류 과대 성장이 빈번히 발생한다. 과거에 비해 녹조현상의 빈도가 잦아졌으며, 지속기간이 증가하였다. 조류 발생 시 현장에서 채수한 샘플을 통해 검경 및 chlorophyll-a 분석을 진행하여 조류의 정성·정량적 평가를 진행한다. 이러한 분석결과는 녹조 발생에 대한 기초자료로 활용되고 있다. 하지만 현장 시료 샘플을 통한 조류 검경의 경우 단일지점에 대한 분석으로 인해 하천 및 호소의 전체적인 대표성을 나타내기엔 한계가 있고, 많은 인력과 시간이 소요된다. 또한 chlorophyll-a는 녹조류와 높은 관련성이 있어 유해남조류에 대한 집중 분석에는 한계가 발생한다. 이러한 한계점을 통해 국내·외로 조류 연구에 분광 스펙트럼을 활용한 원격탐사 기법 적용되고 있으며, 남조류 농도를 분석하기 위해 남조류의 보조 색소인 phycocyanin을 활용한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 분광스펙트럼을 활용한 phycocyanin 분석을 진행하였다. 분광 스펙트럼을 측정하기 위해 점(point) 단위의 고해상도 분광방사계를 활용하였으며, phycocyanin 측정을 위해서 형광 센서를 활용하였다. 현장에서 형광센서 및 분광방사계를 동시에 측정하여 데이터를 취득하였으며, 분광 스펙트럼 특성상 노이즈 및 이상치가 발생하기 때문에 전처리 과정을 통해 이를 보완하였다. phycocyanin 분석을 위해 다중 스펙트럼을 활용한 분광지수를 활용했으며, 이를 통해 phycocyanin 분석에 있어 최적의 분광지수를 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구 결과는 고해상도 점(point)단위 분석으로 향후 선단위, 면단위 하천 조류-스펙트럼 분석에 있어 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

Objectives: Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) corrected elevated blood pressure (BP) in some studies of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) but not in others. Such inconsistent results in previous studies might be due to differences in factors influencing the effects of CPAP on BP. The factors referred to include BP monitoring techniques, the characteristics of subjects, and method of CPAP application. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of one night CPAP application on BP and heart rate (HR) reactivity using non-invasive beat-to-beat BP measurement in normotensive and hypertensive subjects with OSAS. Methods: Finger arterial BP and oxygen saturation monitoring with nocturnal polysomnography were performed on 10 OSAS patients (mean age $52.2{\pm}12.4\;years$; 9 males, 1 female; respiratory disturbance index (RDI)>5) for one baseline night and another CPAP night. Beat-to-beat measurement of BP and HR was done with finger arterial BP monitor ($Finapres^{(R)}$) and mean arterial oxygen saturation ($SaO_2$) was also measured at 2-second intervals for both nights. We compared the mean values of cardiovascular and respiratory variables between baseline and CPAP nights using Wilcoxon signed ranks test. Delta ($\Delta$) BP, defined as the subtracted value of CPAP night BP from baseline night BP, was correlated with age, body mass index (BMI), baseline night values of BP, BP variability, HR, HR variability, mean $SaO_2$ and respiratory disturbance index (RDI), and CPAP night values of TWT% (total wake time%) and CPAP pressure, using Spearman's correlation. Results: 1) Although increase of mean $SaO_2$ (p<.01) and decrease of RDI (p<.01) were observed on the CPAP night, there were no significant differences in other variables between two nights. 2) However, delta BP tended to increase or decease depending on BP values of the baseline night and age. Delta systolic BP and baseline systolic BP showed a significant positive correlation (p<.01), but delta diastolic BP and baseline diastolic BP did not show a significant correlation except for a positive correlation in wake stage (p<.01). Delta diastolic BP and age showed a significant negative correlation (p<.05) during all stages except for REM stage, but delta systolic BP and age did not. 3) Delta systolic and diastolic BPs did not significantly correlate with other factors, such as BMI, baseline night values of BP variability, HR, HR variability, mean SaO2 and RDI, and CPAP night values of TWT% and CPAP pressure, except for a positive correlation of delta diastolic pressure and TWT% of CPAP night (p<.01). Conclusions: We observed that systolic BP and diastolic BP tended to decrease, increase or remain still in accordance with the systolic BP level of baseline night and aging. We suggest that BP reactivity by CPAP be dealt with as a complex phenomenon rather than a simple undifferentiated BP decrease.

Objectives : This study was to assess the children's mean number of decayed or filled primary teeth in relation to their mother's oral health behavior and then to increase children's oral health. Methods : The 346 children and their mothers were selected for this study. The children were 4 or 7 years old in the 4 dental clinics in Busan and Kyungnam, Korea. Data were collected by examination on children and self-administrated questionnaire on their mothers. The questionnaire was surveyed mother's oral health behaviour and children experienced dental caries or not and the number of decayed or filled they had were used as outcome variables. Results : 1. The mother's education level affected children's dft index significantly(p<0.05), In the case of tooth brushing method of children, the group with circle teeth wipes shows the low dft index(p<0.01). 2. On the other hand the group with snack as food eaten between meals has high dft index(p<0.001). 3. The group with mother's visiting to dentist within recent 1 year, experience in removing plaque or willing to attend the oral health education show low dft index(p<0.05). The important variables affecting to dft index are experience with oral health education, tooth brushing guidance, replacement of toothbrushes, the kind of food eaten between meals, recent experience of plaque removal and willing to participating in the oral health class. Conclusions : This study showed that the mother's oral health behavior and concern play an important role for the prevention of preschooler's dental caries. Dental health education would be focused on the mothers, expecially for the practice of preventive behavior by preschools themselves.
