This study carried out to evaluate the quality deviation according to Premixed and Non-Premixed cement for normal and high strength concrete using blast furnace slag and fly ash. The results of experiment are founded that concrete using premixed cement have more performance than non-premixed cement at a point of view for the quality deviations both strength and Chloride ion diffusion. Therefore, it is desirable that premixed cement should be used to decrease strength deviation in high strength concrete and durability deviation in normal strength concrete.

Commercial data mining tools basically support binary attributes only in mining association rules, that is, they can mine binary association rules only. In general, however. transaction databases contain not only binary attributes but also quantitative attributes. Thus, in this paper we propose a systematic approach to mine quantitative association rules---association rules which contain quantitative attributes---using commercial mining tools. To achieve this goal, we first propose an overall working framework that mines quantitative association rules based on commercial mining tools. The proposed framework consists of two steps: 1) a pre-processing step which converts quantitative attributes into binary attributes and 2) a post-processing step which reconverts binary association rules into quantitative association rules. As the pre-processing step, we present the concept of domain partition, and based on the domain partition, we formally redefine the previous bipartition and multi-partition techniques, which are mean-based or median-based techniques for bipartition, and are equi-width or equi-depth techniques for multi-partition. These previous partition techniques, however, have the problem of not considering distribution characteristics of attribute values. To solve this problem, in this paper we propose an intuitive partition technique, named standard deviation minimization. In our standard deviation minimization, adjacent attributes are included in the same partition if the change of their standard deviations is small, but they are divided into different partitions if the change is large. We also propose the post-processing step that integrates binary association rules and reconverts them into the corresponding quantitative rules. Through extensive experiments, we argue that our framework works correctly, and we show that our standard deviation minimization is superior to other partition techniques. According to these results, we believe that our framework is practically applicable for naive users to mine quantitative association rules using commercial data mining tools.

Since the 2000s, ensemble streamflow prediction (ESP) has been actively utilized in South Korea, primarily for hydrological forecasting purposes. Despite its notable success in hydrological forecasting, the original objective of enhancing water resources system management has been relatively overlooked. Consequently, this study aims to demonstrate the utility of ESP in water resources management by creating a simple hypothetical exercise for dam operators and applying it to actual multi-purpose dams in South Korea. The hypothetical exercise showed that even when the means of ESP are identical, different costs can result from varying standard deviations. Subsequently, using sampling stochastic dynamic programming (SSDP) and considering the capacity-inflow ratio (CIR), optimal release patterns were derived for Soyang Dam (CIR = 1.345) and Chungju Dam (CIR = 0.563) based on types W and P. For this analysis, Type W was defined with standard deviation equal to the mean inflow, and Type P with standard deviation ten times of the mean inflow. Simulated operations were conducted from 2020 to 2022 using the derived optimal releases. The results indicate that in the case of Dam Chungju, more aggressive optimal release patterns were derived under types with smaller standard deviations, and the simulated operations demonstrated satisfactory outcomes. Similarly, Soyang Dam exhibited similar results in terms of optimal release, but there was no significant difference in the simulation between types W and P due to its large CIR. Ultimately, this study highlights that even with the same mean values, the standard deviation of ESP impacts optimal release patterns and outcomes in simulation. Additionally, it underscores that systems with smaller CIRs are more sensitive to such uncertainties. Based on these findings, there is potential for improvements in South Korea's current operational practices, which rely solely on single representative values for water resources management.

Generally it is likely that rock mass properties are expressed not by a mean value but by values with variation due to its characteristic uncertainty. This characteristic is one of the most important parts for the design of undergound structures, but yet to be fully examined. Stochastic finite element method (SFEM) is contrary to deterministic finite element method in its concept as the former has been developed in order to take the randomness of structural systems into account. Using SFEM, the response variability of structural system can be obtained and it leads probabilistic stability of structure to be analyzed. In this study, displacement response variability of circular opening with hydrostatic stress field are analyzed in terms of rock mass properties having a certain mean and a standard deviation using the SFEM. The analyzed response variability shows that the necessity of probabilistic stability analysis of underground structures using reliable mean value and standard deviation of deformation modulus.

The wireless sensor network is used to get information that location tracing or data of surrounding areas. Unnecessary retransmission request or many energy consumption because the transmission over the wireless links. In order to select the link of reliable and energy efficient to estimate the quality of radio link technique is required using RSSI, LQI, and so on. In this paper, each path between the sensor nodes, a small in the path within standard deviation of shall be determined the priority. Each path a high priority of the node values, respectively LQI is accumulated. Node can be selected the high LQI value path. Among them the less hop count to select the path is proposed. The proposed algorithm is removed the paths of shorten life using high the LQI value of the entire and high hop count even less variation. So its advantage that the sensor nodes can be selected more reliable path.

Stratified random sampling is a powerful sampling strategy to reduce variance of the estimators by incorporating useful auxiliary information to stratify the population. Sample allocation is the one of the important decisions in selecting a stratified random sample. There are two common methods, the proportional allocation and Neyman allocation if we could assume data collection cost for different observation units equal. Theoretically, Neyman allocation considering the size and standard deviation of each stratum, is known to be more effective than proportional allocation which incorporates only stratum size information. However, if the information on the standard deviation is inaccurate, the performance of Neyman allocation is in doubt. It has been pointed out that Neyman allocation is not suitable for multi-purpose sample survey that requires the estimation of several characteristics. In addition to sampling error, non-response error is another factor to evaluate sampling strategy that affects the statistical precision of the estimator. We propose new sample allocation methods using the available information about stratum response rates at the designing stage to improve stratified random sampling. The proposed methods are efficient when response rates differ considerably among strata. In particular, the method using population sizes and response rates improves the Neyman allocation in multi-purpose sample survey.
