데이터 마이닝 기법들 중에서도 연관성 규칙은 가장 최근에 개발된 기법으로 대용량 데이터베이스에서 각 항목들 간의 관련성을 찾아내며, 두 항목간의 관계를 명확히 수치화함으로써 두 개 이상의 항목간의 관련성을 표시하여 주기 때문에 현장에서 직접 적용이 가능하다. 일반적으로 연관성 규칙 생성 여부를 판단할 때, 각 항목간의 연관성을 반영하는 기준인 지지도, 신뢰도, 향상도 등의 흥미도 측도를 활용하게 된다. 실제적으로 연관성 규칙의 수를 결정하기 위해서는 이들 흥미도 측도들의 평가기준을 정하기 위해 반복적으로 조정 과정을 거쳐야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 연관성 평가기준 모두를 일반적으로 많이 활용되고 있는 비선형 회귀모형에 적용하여 연관성 규칙의 수를 추정하는 방안을 강구하였다. 또한 분산팽창계수를 이용하여 다중공선성 문제를 진단하는 동시에 분산분석 결과와 수정 결정계수를 이용하여 각 모형의 기여도를 비교하여 가장 바람직한 회귀 모형을 구하였다.

In order to evaluate the effects of knowledge, attitude and practice on noise-induced hearing loss or hearing threshold level, questionnaire survey was performed and hearing thresholds of 1 kHz and 4 kHz were measured on 1,040 subjects with workers exposed to noise, safety and health officers. industrial hygienists, analysts rind office workers. The results were as follows ; 1. The following 6 factors were obtained by factor analysis and factor rotation of 30 questionnaire of knowledge, attitude and practice about noise; knowledge of noise (F1), concern of hearing protective devices (F2), concern of noise induced hearing loss (F3), concern of noise level and hearing impairment (F4), concern of noise in workplace (F5) and recognition of noised-induced hearing loss (F6). 56.1% of variance was explained by 6 factors. 2. Significant variables influencing knowledge, attitude and practice about noise were education level and age in F1, personal protective devices (PPE) and education level in F2, age and education level in F3, education level, age and sex in F4, PPE, education level, age and work duration in F5, and work duration and PPE in F6. 3. Hearing thresholds of 4 kHz were significantly higher in workers exposed to noise than that of in the other subjects and tended to be higher in industrial hygienists, safety and health officers and analysts than that of the office workers. 4. Significant variables influencing hearing thresholds of 1 kHz were age, education level, F5 and F6 in workers exposed to noise, and F1 in industrial hygienists. 5. Significant variables influencing hearing thresholds of 4 kHz were age, F6, sex, work duration, F1, F5, F2 and F3 in workers exposed to noise, F1 and age in safety and health officers, and F6, sex and F4 in industrial hygienists. With the above results, it suggested that workers exposed to noise be needed the education of knowledge, attitude and practice about noise in hearing conservation program for the prevention of noise induced hearing loss. Also, it suggested that health managers in workplace be needed countermeasures to prevent hearing loss although they are intermittently exposed to noise.

One of the well-studied problems in data mining is the search for association rules. Association rules are useful for determining correlations between attributes of a relation and have applications in marketing, financial and retail sectors. There are three criteria of association rule; support, confidence, lift. The goal of association rule mining is to find all the rules with support and confidence exceeding some user specified thresholds. We can know there is association between two items by the criteria of association rules. But we can not know the degree of association between two items. In this paper we examine the relation between the measures of association and the criteria of association rule for ordinal data.

This paper describes several loop partitioning techniques such as loop splitting method by thresholds and Polychronopoulos' loop splitting method for exploiting parallelism from single loop which already developed. We propose improved loop splitting method for maximizing parallelism of single loops with non-constant dependence distances. By using the distance for the source of the first dependence, and by our defined theorems, we present generalized and optimal algorithms for single loops with non-uniform dependences. The algorithms generalize how to transform general single loops into parallel loops.

New and handoff calls control mechanisms are the key point to wireless cellular networks. In this paper, we present an adaptive algorithm for dynamic channel allocation scheme with guard channels and also with handoff calls waiting queue ensuring that handoff calls take priority over new calls. Our goal is to find better tradeoff between handoffs and new calls blocking probabilities in order to achieve more efficient channel utilization. Simpy is a Python based discrete event simulation system. We use Simpy to build our simulation models to get analytical data.

We review some loop partitioning techniques such as loop splitting method by thresholds and Polychronopoulos' loop splitting method for exploiting parallelism from single loop which already developed. We propose improved loop splitting method for maximizing parallelism of single loops with non-constant dependence distances. By using the iteration and distance for the source of the first dependence, and by our defined theorems, we present generalized and optimal algorithms for single loops with non-uniform dependences. The algorithms generalize how to transform general single loops with one dependence as well as with multiple dependences into parallel loops.

지구관측 위성영상을 활용한 도시지역 매핑 작업은 도시지역의 팽창 및 도시발전의 관측을 위해 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 대구광역시를 촬영한 Landsat-8 위성영상의 분광밴드를 이용하여 제작한 두 원격탐사 지수 영상(정규 건축물 지수(NDBI) 영상 및 도시 지수 (UI) 영상) 으로부터 도시지역을 탐지하기 위한 임계점 평가에 관한 연구를 다음과 같이 진행하였다. 우선, Landsat-8 영상의 분광밴드를 이용하여 NDBI 영상과 UI 영상을 각각 제작한다. 그리고 다양한 임계점(-0.4, -0.2 및 0)을 NDBI 및 UI 영상에 적용하여 도시지역을 탐지하고, 탐지된 도시지역의 정확도를 산출한다. 본 연구를 통해 진행한 실험결과를 분석한 결과, NDBI 영상에서는 임계점으로 -0.2를 적용시켰을 때 탐지된 도시지역의 정확도(88%)가 가장 높았고, UI 영상에서는 임계점으로 -0.4를 적용시켰을 때 탐지된 도시지역의 정확도(88%)가 가장 높았다. 또한, 일부 지역에서는 나지가 도시지역으로 오분류 되었으며, 고층 아파트 지역이 비도시 지역으로 오분류 되었다. 추후 연구에서는 위성영상에서 오분류를 줄이고 다양한 도시지역 객체를 추출할 수 있는 개선된 방법을 제안하도록 한다. 또한 다중시기 위성영상에서 탐지된 도시지역을 이용하여 도시 팽창 패턴을 분석하는 추후 연구도 수행할 계획이다.

이미지로부터 중요 객체를 추출하는 것은 추적, 분할, 적응적 압축, 내용기반 검색과 같은 멀티미디어 처리에 있어서 매우 중요한 부분이며, 현재 이에 관한 많은 연구가 진행 되고 있다. 중요 객체 추출을 위한 방법으로 Saliency Map을 이용한 방법이 있다. 이 방법에서는 일반적으로 이진화된 Saliency Map을 이용하여 어떤 화소가 중요 객체 내부인가 아닌가를 표시한다. 따라서 이 방법은 이진화를 위한 임계값의 선택이 성능에 매우 중요한 영향을 끼친다. 기존 연구에서는 일반적으로 휴리스틱 방법을 이용하여 임계값을 결정하거나 매개변수로 임계값을 조정하는 방법이 사용되었다. 그러나 하나의 임계값 적용은 이미지 안의 다수의 객체가 포함되어 있는 경우 적합하지 않다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 개선할 수 있는 Otsu 임계값을 이용한 전역적인 최적 임계값을 사용하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 Otsu 임계화 방법은 단일-계층에 적용할 수 있는 Otsu 방법과 이를 확장하여 다중-계층에도 적용할 수 있는 Otsu 방법이다. 제안한 방법을 기존의 Saliency Map 모델에 적용한 결과 성능이 개선되었음을 확인하였다.

Background: The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical association between cadmium exposure and hearing impairment among the Korean population. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study used the data obtained from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used for our study. Finally, 3,228 participants were included in our study, which were then divided into quartiles based on their blood cadmium levels: first quartile (1Q), second quartile (2Q), third quartile (3Q), and fourth quartile (4Q) groups. The hearing thresholds were measured using an automatic audiometer at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 kHz. Hearing loss (HL) was defined as >25 dB average hearing threshold (AHT). Results: All the groups had 807 participants each. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curves of cadmium level for HL were 0.634 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.621-0.646). The participants in the 4Q group had higher Low/Mid-Freq, High-Freq, and AHT values than those in the other groups in the multivariate analysis after adjusting for confounding factors. The logistic regression showed that the OR for HL per $1{\mu}g/L$ increase in cadmium was 1.25 (95% CI, 1.09-1.44; p=0.002) on the multivariate analysis. Moreover, the multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that the participants in the 4Q group exhibited a 1.59-, 1.38-, and 1.41-fold higher odds for HL than those in the 1Q, 2Q, and 3Q groups, respectively. Conclusion: High cadmium level quartile was associated with increased hearing thresholds and HL among the Korean adult population.

Background: We hypothesized that fatty liver disease (FLD) is associated with a high prevalence of hearing loss (HL) owing to metabolic disturbances. This study aimed to evaluate the association between FLD and HL in a large sample of the Korean population. Methods: We used a dataset of adults who underwent routine voluntary health checkups (n=21,316). Fatty liver index (FLI) was calculated using Bedogni's equation. The patients were divided into two groups: the non-FLD (NFLD) group (n=18,518, FLI <60) and the FLD group (n=2,798, FLI ≥60). Hearing thresholds were measured using an automatic audiometer. The average hearing threshold (AHT) was calculated as the pure-tone average at four frequencies (0.5, 1, 2, and 3 kHz). HL was defined as an AHT of >40 dB. Results: HL was observed in 1,370 (7.4%) and 238 patients (8.5%) in the NFLD and FLD groups, respectively (p=0.041). Compared with the NFLD group, the odds ratio for HL in the FLD group was 1.16 (p=0.040) and 1.46 (p<0.001) in univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, respectively. Linear regression analyses revealed that FLI was positively associated with AHT in both univariate and multivariate analyses. Analyses using a propensity score-matched cohort showed trends similar to those using the total cohort. Conclusion: FLD and FLI were associated with poor hearing thresholds and HL. Therefore, active monitoring of hearing impairment in patients with FLD may be helpful for early diagnosis and treatment of HL in the general population.
