Correlation Power Analysis (CPA) is a type of Side-Channel Analysis (SCA) that extracts the secret key using the correlation coefficient both side-channel information leakage by cryptography device and intermediate value of algorithms. Attack performance of the CPA is affected by noise and temporal synchronization of power consumption leaked. In the recent years, various researches about the signal processing have been presented to improve the performance of power analysis. Among these signal processing techniques, compression techniques of the signal based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been presented. Selection of the principal components is an important issue in signal compression based on PCA. Because selection of the principal component will affect the performance of the analysis. In this paper, we present a method of selecting the principal component by using the correlation of the principal components and the power consumption is high and a CPA technique based on the principal component that utilizes the feature that the principal component has different. Also, we prove the performance of our method by carrying out the experiment.

Precipitation variability in Korea is mainly influenced by climate circulation such as sea surface temperature, not a local convection. Therefore, this study investigates relationship between monthly precipitation of 61 station observed by Korea Meteorological Administration and global sea surface temperatures (SSTs). The main components of monthly precipitation in Korea are extracted by a method which consists of the principal analysis combined with the cluster analysis, to examine the correlation between monthly rainfalls and SSTs. The relationships between main components of monthly precipitation and SSTs exists in Pacific Ocean. At the result of Wavelet Transform analysis, The 2-4 year band have a strong wavelet power spectrum and the low frequency. the correlation coefficient between low frequency components of monthly rainfalls and SSTs calculated bigger then correlation coefficient between main components and SSTs. Hence, these results propose a prediction possibility of monthly precipitations using the varition of SSTs.

Background and Purpose: Electroencephalogram(EEG) is a multi-scaled signal consisting of several components of time series with different origins. Recently, because of the absence of an identified metric which quantifies the complex amount of information, there are many limitations in using such a linear method. According to chaos theory, irregular signals of EEG can also result from low dimensional deterministic chaos. Chaotic nonlinear dynamics in the EEG can be studied by calculating the correlation dimension. The aim of this study is to analyze correlation between the correlation dimension of EEG and psychological Test (TCI). Methods: Before and after moxibustion treatment, EEG raw data were measured by moving windows during 15 minutes. The correlation dimension(D2) was calculated from stabilized 40 seconds in 15 minutes data. 8 channels EEG study on the Fp, F, T, P was carried out in 30 subjects. Results: Correlation analysis of TCI test is calculated with deterministic non-linear data and stochastic non-linear data. 1. Novelty seeking in temperament is positive correlated with D2 of EEG on Fp. 2. reward dependence in temperament is positive correlated with D2 of EEG on T3,T4 and negative correlated with D2 of EEG on P3,P4. 3. self directedness in character is positive correlated with D2 of EEG on F4, P3. 4. Harm avoidance is negative correlated with D2 of EEG on Fp2, T3, P3. Conclusion: These results suggest that nonlinear analysis of EEG can quantify dynamic state of brain abolut psychological Test (TCI).

Objectives : The primary purpose of this study was to examine the effect of manual acupuncture at the $LI_4$, $ST_{36}$ and $LR_3$ on normal human EEG (Electroencephalogram). And the secondary purpose of this study was to analyze the relationships between the change of EEG wave form using correlation analysis. Methods : 32 channel EEG measurement was carried out in 25 healthy participants (23 males and 2 females). EEG was measured for 21 minutes including 15 minutes of retention time. In this study, power spectrum was used as a measure of complexity. Statistical analysis was performed using Spearman correlation. Results : The results were as follows; 1. In C4, O1, Fz, Pz, Cz, FCz, CP4, FC4, TP7, FT7 among 32 electrodes, ${\delta}$, $\theta$ and ${\beta}$ wave increased during 0-3 time intervals, and especially in case of TP7, FT7 ${\alpha}$ wave spontaneously decreased during 12~15 time intervals in manipulation group. 2. Between $\theta$ and ${\beta}$ wave and $\theta$ and ${\delta}$ wave, there was statistically significant positive correlation in C4, O1, Fz, Pz, Cz, FCz, CP4, FC4, TP7, FT7 according to Spearman correlation analysis. 3. Between ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ wave, there was statistically significant positive correlation in TP7, FT7 according to Spearman correlation analysis. Conclusions : These results suggest that TP7 and FT7 could be typical electrodes representing change of EEG after manipulated acupuncture at the $LI_4$, $ST_{36}$ and $LR_3$. The relationships between the change of EEG wave form appear to have statistically significant positive correlation between $\theta$ and ${\beta}$ wave, $\theta$ and ${\delta}$ wave and ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ wave.

This study conducted accelerated carbonation experiments on cement pastes using OPC and FA. It derived the correlation of pH prediction methods through component analysis of the carbonated pastes. Analysis of weight change due to thermal decomposition was performed using TG-DTA, and component analysis was conducted using XRF. A comparative review of each experimental result and pH measurement result was carried out. The study proposed a correlation analysis method between the component ratio of CO₂ and CaO, the component ratio of calcium carbonate and calcium hydroxide, and pH. By analyzing the relationship between the CO₂ components measured by XRF and pH, the correlation coefficients of all mixtures were 0.84 or higher, indicating a strong correlation.The correlation analysis of calcium carbonate and calcium hydroxide with pH using TG-DTA showed that the correlation coefficient for calcium carbonate was more than 0.86 for all formulations. However, the correlation coefficient between calcium hydroxide and pH was low, so a study was conducted to analyze the correlation with pH using the ratio of the results of the two components.

The success of a construction project hinges on the effective and efficient management of human resources. The stress of human resources is directly related with work performance, and as such, should be managed to improve work performance. This study examined the correlation between job stress and job satisfaction among building construction project managers. A questionnaire to measure work performance was created by referring to the Korean Occupational Stress Questionnaire Short Form developed by the Korean Occupational Safety & Health Agency, as well as a previous study. The mean job satisfaction score of field managers was 3.6, which suggests that they are generally satisfied in their current job environment. A Pearson's correlation analysis showed that the field managers that were satisfied with their job had less job stress. These results could be used for the effective management of construction site managers and to improve their job performance in the field.

In this paper voice quality of normal speech is qualitatively classified by five components of breathy, creaky, rough, nasal, and thin/thick voice. To determine whether a correlation exists between a subjective measure of voice and an objective measure of voice, each voice is perceptually evaluated using the 1/2/3 scale by speech processing specialists and acoustically analyzed using speech analysis tools such as the Praat, MDVP, and VoiceSauce. The speech parameters include features related to speech source and vocal tract filter. Statistical analysis uses a two-independent-samples non-parametric test. Experimental results show that statistical analysis identified a significant correlation between the speech feature parameters and the components of voice quality.
