The purpose of this article is to develop a program for teaching Type I and Type II errors in one sample. In this program, the concepts of two errors are visually explained, and the probabilities of two errors are also visually displayed as the rejection region changes or the sample size changes. Also, in this program, the power curve and the operating characteristic curve are visually displayed in terms of the parameter value of interest.

Multivariate confidence regions were defined using a chi-square distribution function under a normal assumption and were represented with ellipse and ellipsoid types of bivariate and trivariate normal distribution functions. In this work, an alternative confidence region using the multivariate quantile vectors is proposed to define the normal distribution as well as any other distributions. These lower and upper bounds could be obtained using quantile vectors, and then the appropriate region between two bounds is referred to as the quantile confidence region. It notes that the upper and lower bounds of the bivariate and trivariate quantile confidence regions are represented as a curve and surface shapes, respectively. The quantile confidence region is obtained for various types of distribution functions that are both symmetric and asymmetric distribution functions. Then, its coverage rate is also calculated and compared. Therefore, we conclude that the quantile confidence region will be useful for the analysis of multivariate data, since it is found to have better coverage rates, even for asymmetric distributions.

A minimum-time trajectory planning for two robot arms with designated paths and coordination is proposed. The problem considered in this paper is a subproblem of hierarchically decomposed trajectory planning approach for multiple robots : i) path planning, ii) coordination planning, iii) velocity planning. In coordination planning stage, coordination space, a specific form of configuration space, is constructed to determine collision region and collision-free region, and a collision-free coordination curve (CFCC) passing collision-free region is selected. In velocity planning stage, normal dynamic equations of the robots, described by joint angles, velocities and accelerations, are converted into simpler forms which are described by traveling distance along collision-free coordination curve. By utilizing maximum allowable torques and joint velocity limits, admissible range of velocity and acceleration along CFCC is derived, and a minimum-time velocity planning is calculated in phase plane. Also the planning algorithm itself is converted to simple numerical iterative calculation form based on the concept of neural optimization network, which gives a feasible approximate solution to this planning problem. To show the usefulness of proposed method, an example of trajectory planning for 2 SCARA type robots in common workspace is illustrated.

The full energy peak efficiency of a hyper pure germanium (HPGe) detector was calibrated in a wide energy range from 0.06 to 11 MeV. Both the experimental technique and the Monte Carlo method were used for the efficiency calibration. The measurement was performed using the standard radioisotopes in the low energy region of $60{\sim}1408$ keV, which was further extended up to 11 MeV by using the $^{14}N(n,r)\;and\;^{35}Cl(n,r)$ reactions. The GEANT Monte Carlo code was used for efficiency calculation. The calculated efficiency had the same dependency on the r-ray energy with the measurement, and the discrepancy between the calculation and the measurement was minimized by fine-tuning of the detector geometry. From the calculated result, the efficiency curve of the HPGe detector was reliably determined particularly in the high energy region above several MeV, where the number of measured efficiency points is relatively small despite the wide energy region. The calculated efficiency agreed with the measurement within about $7\%$. In addition to the efficiency calculation, the origin of the local minimum near 600 keV on the efficiency curve was analyzed as a general characteristics of a HPGe detector.

Fracture toughness of five different reactor pressure vessel steels was characterized in the transition temperature region by the ASTM E1921-97 standard method using Charpy-sized small specimens. T he predominant fracture mode of the tested steels was transgranular cleavage in the test conditions. A statistical analysis based on the Weibull distribution was applied to the interpretation of the scattered fracture toughness data. The size-dependence of the measured fracture toughness values was also well predicted by means of the Weibull probabilistic analysis. The measured fracture toughness transition curves followed the temperature-dependence of the ASTM master curve within the expected scatter bands. Therefore, the fracture toughness characteristics in the transition region could be described by a single parameter, so-called the reference temperature (T。), for a given steel. The determined reference temperatures of the tested materials could not be correlated with the conventional index temperatures from Charpy impact tests.

This research tested the EKC (Environment Kuznets Curve) Hypothesis using the $CO_2$ Emissions by region and GRDP. We built the panel data set on the 15 local government region from 1990 to 2010 for this analysis. GRDP, population and total factor productivity was considered as the factors influencing on the regional $CO_2$ Emissions. Analysis method in this research is panel GLS model as Lantz and Feng (2006). The results show that the EKC hypothesis did not hold in Korea but there is inverted U relationship between the $CO_2$ Emissions and total factor productivity. As the total factor productivity grows, the $CO_2$ increased but decreased after a certain level.

We investigated that the fabrication and reproducing signal characteristics of tri-layered magnetoresistance (MR) element for the high density magnetic thin film heads and sensors. Magnetoresistance curve of tri-layered MR element predicted by computer modeling was saturated above external field of -15 Oe~+22 Oe, and it was shifted to linearized region as large as 4 Oe. In the case of fabricated real device, magnetoresistance curve was saturated above external field of $\pm$15 Oe, and it was shifted to linearized region as large as 4 Oe. As shown in real device, MR response curve was in good agreement with the simulation results. As a result of experimental data of reproducing output signal in real device, it retained normal sinusoidal waveforms in 1~4 Oe external magnetic field. In this magnetic field region, the fabricated heads with tri-layered MR element can be operated with good reproduced characteristics. This will be beneficial to the use of efficient processes of manufacturing elements and the vacuum deposition techniques which control thin film properties.

In this paper, new simple method for the calculation of depletion region under complex geometry and general purpose numerical simulator that could handle this were developed and applied in the analysis of SCM with nanoscale tip, which is a promising tool for high resolution dopant profiling. Our simple depletion region seeking algorithm alternatively switches material of elements to align ionized element boundary with contour of zero potential. To prove the validity of our method we examined whether our results satisfy the definition of depletion region and compared those with known values of un junction and MOS structure. By modeling of capacitance based on the shape of depletion region and potential distribution, we could calculate the CV curve and dC/dV curve between silicon substrate and nanoscale SCM tip.

In this Paper, we propose a dissolve detection method based on video editing model. Our method consists of two steps In the first step, the candidate regions are found by using the first md second derivative of a variance curve. In a variance curve, a dissolve presents a parabola that is downward convex. Therefore the parabola is found as a candidate region for a dissolve. In the second step, the candidate region is verified for a dissolve region. In each candidate region, a variance at a valley of the parabola corresponding to dissolve is estimated and then the candidate region is verified by using estimated valley's variance. The valley's variance is determined by neighbor scene variances, so proposed method is adaptive to detect dissolve with various variances. Experiment results on video of various content types are reported and validated.

In order to perform leak-before-break design of nuclear piping systems and integrity evaluation of reactor vessels, full stress-strain curves and fracture resistance (J-R) curves are required. However it is time-consuming and expensive to obtain J-R curves experimentally. The objective of this paper is to modify two J-R curve prediction methods previously proposed by the authors and to propose an additional J-R curve prediction method for nuclear piping materials. In the first method which is based on the elastic-plastic finite element analysis, a blunting region handling procedure is added to the existing method. In the second method which is based on the empirical equation, a revised general equation is proposed to apply to both carbon steel and stainless steel. Finally, in the third method, both full stress-strain curve and finite element analysis results are used for J-R curve prediction. A good agreement between the predicted results based on the proposed methods and the experimental ones is obtained.
