Over the last decade, droughts have become more severe and frequent in many regions, and several studies have been conducted to explore the recent drought. Copula-based bivariate drought frequency analysis has been widely used to evaluate drought risk in the context of point frequency analysis. However, the relatively significant uncertainties in the parameters are problematic when available data are limited. For this reason, the primary purpose of this study is to develop a regional drought frequency model based on the Copula function. All parameters, including marginal and copula functions in the regional frequency model, were estimated simultaneously. Here, we present a case study of recent drought 2013-2015 over the Han-River watershed where severe drought risk is consistently found to increase. The proposed model provided a reliable way to significantly reduce the uncertainty of parameters with a Bayesian modeling framework. The uncertainty of the joint return period in the regional frequency analysis is nearly three times lower than that of the point frequency analysis. Accordingly, DIC values in the regional frequency analysis model are significantly decreased by 15. The results confirm that the proposed model is not only reliably representing characteristics of historical droughts and dependencies between drought variables, but also providing the efficacy of understanding regional drought characteristics.

In order to catch out such Bond Strength, the preceding researchers had ever examined the Bond Strength of FRP Plate through their experimentations by setting up of various fluent. However, since the experiment for research on such Bond Strength takes much of expenditure for equipment structure and time-consuming, also difficult to carry out, it is conducting limitedly. This Study purposes to develop the most suitable Artificial Neural Network Model by application of various Neural Network Model and Algorithm to the adhering experiment data of the preceding researchers. Output Layer of Artificial Neural Network Model, and Input Layer of Bond Strength were performed the learning by selection as the variable of the thickness, width, adhered length, the modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, and the compressive strength of concrete, tensile strength, width, respectively. The developed Artificial Neural Network Model has applied Back-Propagation, and its error was learnt to be converged within the range of 0.001. Besides, the process for generalization has dissolved the problem of Over-Fitting in the way of more generalized method by introduction of Bayesian Technique. The verification on the developed Model was executed by comparison with the resulted value of Bond Strength made by the other preceding researchers which was never been utilized to the learning as yet.

Discriminant analysis based on Gaussian mixture models, an useful tool for multi-class classifications, can be extended to semi-supervised learning. We consider a model selection problem for a Gaussian mixture model in semi-supervised learning. More specifically, we adopt Bayesian information criterion to determine the number of subclasses in the mixture model. Through simulations, we illustrate the usefulness of the criterion.

This paper provides a non-Bayesian method based on the expanded EM algorithm for segmenting the magnetic resonance images degraded by bias field. For the images with the intensity as a pixel value, many segmentation methods often fail to segment it because of the bias field(with low frequency) as well as noise(with high frequency). Our contextual approach is appropriately designed by using normal mixture model incorporated with Markov random field for noise-corrective segmentation and by using the penalized likelihood to estimate bias field for efficient bias filed-correction.

평균치에 적용되는 credibility formula를 분산에도 적용하여 응용 할 수 있는 extended credibility formula를 개발한다. 간단한 베이지안 신뢰도 예측모형을 구축하고 이 모형에 extended credibility formula를 적용한다. 감마 사전분포 - 포아송 우도의 경우와 베타 사전분포 - 이항분포 우도의 경우에 대해 extended credibility formula를 적용해 관측치에 주어진 가중치에 따라 사후 분산이 어떻게 변화하는지를 분석한다. 사후분산도 사후평균과 마찬가지로 사전값과 관측값의 가중평균으로 표시될 수 있다는 것을 증명한다. 가중치와 불확실성 감소율간의 관계도 연구된다. 이와 같은 가중치에 따른 사전 및 사후분포의 변화 양식에 대한 이해는 올바른 사전분포를 설정하는데 큰 도움이 될 수 있다.

We consider a linear calibration problem, $y_i = $$\alpha + \beta (x_i - x_0) + \epsilon_i$, $i=1, 2, {\cdot}{\cdot},n$ $y_f = \alpha + \beta (x_f - x_0) + \epsilon, $ where we observe $(x_i, y_i)$'s for the controlled calibration experiments and later we make inference about $x_f$ from a new observation $y_f$. The objective of the calibration design problem is to find the optimal design $x = (x_i, \cdots, x_n$ that gives the best estimates for $x_f$. We compare Kim(1989)'s Bayesian design which minimizes the expected value of the posterior variance of $x_f$ and some optimal designs from literature. Kim suggested the Bayesian optimal design based on the analysis of the characteristics of the expected loss function and numerical must be equal to the prior mean and that the sum of squares be as large as possible. The designs to be compared are (1) Buonaccorsi(1986)'s AV optimal design that minimizes the average asymptotic variance of the classical estimators, (2) D-optimal and A-optimal design for the linear regression model that optimize some functions of $M(x) = \sum x_i x_i'$, and (3) Hunter & Lamboy (1981)'s reference design from their paper. In order to compare the designs which are optimal in some sense, we consider two criteria. First, we compare them by the expected posterior variance criterion and secondly, we perform the Monte Carlo simulation to obtain the HPD intervals and compare the lengths of them. If the prior mean of $x_f$ is at the center of the finite design interval, then the Bayesian, AV optimal, D-optimal and A-optimal designs are indentical and they are equally weighted end-point design. However if the prior mean is not at the center, then they are not expected to be identical.In this case, we demonstrate that the almost Bayesian-optimal design was slightly better than the approximate AV optimal design. We also investigate the effects of the prior variance of the parameters and solution for the case when the number of experiments is odd.

Precipitation is one of key components in hydrological modeling and water balance studies. A comprehensive, optimized and sustainable water balance monitoring requires the availability of accurate precipitation data. The amount of precipitation measured in a gauge is less than the actual precipitation reaching the ground. The objective of this study is to determine the wind-induced under-catch of solid precipitation and develop a continuous adjustment function for measurements of all types of winter precipitation (from rain to dry snow), which can be used for operational measurements based on data available at standard automatic weather stations. This study provides Bayesian analysis for the systematic structure of catch ratio in precipitation measurement.

수문자료의 계절성은 수자원관리의 관점에서 매우 중요한 요소로서 계절성의 변동은 댐의 운영, 홍수조절, 관계용수 관리 등 다양한 분야와 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있다. 그러나 지금까지의 수문 자료의 계절성 평가는 주로 이수과점에서 이루어지고 있으며 치수관점에서 극치수문량의 계절성을 평가하는 연구는 미진한 실정이다. 이는 극치수문량을 해석하는 방법론으로서 연최대치계열(annual maxima) 즉, Block Maxima가 이용됨에 따라 나타나는 문제점이다. 그러나 부분기간치계열(partial duration series)을 활용하게 되면 자료의 확충뿐만 아니라 자연적으로 극치수문량의 계절성에 대한 평가 또한 가능하다. 이러한 분석과정을 POT(peak over threshold)분석이라 하며 일정 기준값(threshold) 이상의 자료를 모두 취하여 빈도해석에 이용하는 방법으로서 기존 방법의 경우 연최대값이 일반적으로 7월과 8월에만 존재하게 되지만 POT 분석의 경우 여러 달에 걸쳐 빈도해석을 위한 자료가 구성되게 된다. 이를 빈도해석으로 연계시키기 위해서는 계절성을 비정상성으로 고려하여 모형화 할 수 있는 방법론의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 목적을 위해서 계절성을 고려할 수 있는 비정상성빈도해석 기법의 개념을 제시하고 모형으로 개발하고자 한다. GEV 또는 Gumbel 분포의 매개변수와 계절성을 연계시키기 위해서 Fourier 급수가 활용되며 매개변수는 Bayesian 기법을 통해 최적화 된다. 이를 통하여 설계강수량의 계절적 분포를 정량적으로 해석할 수 있으며 미래의 극치강수량에 대한 분포특성 또한 확률적으로 해석이 가능하다. 본 연구에서 제안된 방법은 국내외 시간강수량자료에 적용되어 적합성과 적용성이 평가된다.

Quantile regression is widely used in many fields based on the advantage of providing an efficient tool for examining complex information latent in variables. However, modern large-scale and high-dimensional data makes it very difficult to estimate the quantile regression model due to limitations in terms of computation time and storage space. Divide-and-conquer is a technique that divide the entire data into several sub-datasets that are easy to calculate and then reconstruct the estimates of the entire data using only the summary statistics in each sub-datasets. In this paper, we studied on a variable selection method using Bayes information criteria by applying the divide-and-conquer technique to the penalized quantile regression. When the number of sub-datasets is properly selected, the proposed method is efficient in terms of computational speed, providing consistent results in terms of variable selection as long as classical quantile regression estimates calculated with the entire data. The advantages of the proposed method were confirmed through simulation data and real data analysis.
