소프트웨어의 결함을 예측하고 검증과 확인 활동을 통하여 효율적인 자원을 관리하기 위하여 많은 연구에서 결함 예측 모형을 제안하고 있다. 하지만 기존의 연구는 예측율이 최대 효과를 보이는 임계치에 결함 예측 모형의 예측율을 평가하고 있다. 이는 측정 시스템의 결함 정보를 알고 있는 가정하에서 평가가 이루어지는 것이기 때문에 실제 결함 정보를 알 수 없는 시스템에서는 최적의 임계치를 결정할 수 없다. 그러므로 임계치 선정의 중요성을 확인하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 결함 예측 모형으로 타 시스템의 결함을 예측하는 비교 실험을 하였다. 실험은 기존에 제안된 3개의 결함 예측 모형과 4개의 시스템을 대상으로 하였고 결함 예측 모형의 임계치별 예측의 정확성을 비교하였다. 실험결과에서 임계치는 모형의 예측율과 높은 관련이 있었지만 실제 결함 정보가 확인 안 되는 시스템에 대하여 결함을 예측하는 경우에는 임계치를 선정할 수 없음을 확인하였다. 따라서 결함 예측 모형을 타 시스템에 적용하기 위하석 임계치 선정에 관한 추후 연구가 필요함을 확인하였다.

In this study, optimal adhesion conditions to alleviate defects caused by heat shrinkage with FDM type 3D printers with machine learning are researched. Machine learning is one of the "statistical methods of extracting the law from data" and can be classified as supervised learning, unsupervised learning and reinforcement learning. Among them, a function model for adhesion between the bed and the output is presented using supervised learning specialized for optimization, which can be expected to reduce output defects with FDM type 3D printers by deriving conditions for optimum adhesion between the bed and the output. Machine learning codes prepared using Python generate a function model that predicts the effect of operating variables on adhesion using data obtained through adhesion testing. The adhesion prediction data and verification data have been shown to be very consistent, and the potential of this method is explained by conclusions.

It is commonly requested that the steam generator tubes wall-thinned in excess of 40% should be plugged. However, the plugging criterion is known to be too conservative for some locations and types of defects and its application is limited to a single crack in spite of the fact that the occurrence of multiple through-wall cracks is more common in general. The objective of this research is to propose the optimum failure prediction models for two adjacent through-wall cracks in steam generator tubes. The conservatism of the present plugging criteria was reviewed using the existing failure prediction models for a single crack, and six new failure prediction models for multiple through-wall cracks have been introduced. Then, in order to determine the optimum ones among these new local or global failure prediction models, a series of plastic collapse tests and corresponding finite element analyses for two adjacent through-wall cracks in thin plate were carried out. Thereby, the reaction force model, plastic zone contact model and COD (Crack-Opening Displacement) base model were selected as the optimum ones for assessment of steam generator tubes with multiple through-wall cracks. The selected optimum failure prediction models, finally, were used to estimate the coalescence pressure of two adjacent through-wall cracks in steam generator tubes.

With growing demand for zero defects, predicting reliability of software systems is gaining importance. Software reliability models are used to estimate the reliability or the number of latent defects in a software product. Most reliability models to estimate the reliability of software in the literature are based on the development lifecycle stages. However, in the maintenance phase, the software needs to be corrected for errors and to be enhanced for the requests from users. These decrease the reliability of software. Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGMs) have been applied successfully to model software reliability in development phase. The software reliability in maintenance phase exhibits many types of systematic or irregular behaviors. These may include cyclic behavior as well as long-term evolutionary trends. The cyclic behavior may involve multiple periodicities and may be asymmetric in nature. In this paper, SGRM has been adapted to develop a reliability prediction model for the software in maintenance phase. The model is established using maintenance data from a commercial shop floor control system. The model is accepted to be used for resource planning and assuring the quality of the maintenance work to the user.

The reliability of a Bridge management System depends on the quality of visual inspection and the reliable estimation of bridge condition rating. However, the current practices of visual inspection have been identified with several limitations, such as: they are time-consuming, provide incomplete information, and their reliance on inspectors' experience. To overcome such limitations, this paper presents an approach of automating the prediction of condition rating for bridges based on digital image analysis. The proposed methodology encompasses image acquisition, development of 3D visualization model, image processing, and condition rating model. Under this method, scaling defect in concrete bridge components is considered as a candidate defect and the guidelines in the Ontario Structure Inspection Manual (OSIM) have been adopted for developing and testing the proposed method. The automated algorithms for scaling depth prediction and mapping of condition ratings are based on training of back propagation neural networks. The result of developed models showed better prediction capability of condition rating over the existing methods such as, Naïve Bayes Classifiers and Bagged Decision Tree.

It is essential for electric power companies to have a quick restoration system of the faulted pole transformers which occupy most of transformers to supply stable electricity. However, it takes too much time to restore it when a transformer is out of order suddenly because we now count on operator in investigating causes of failure and making decision of recovery methods. This paper presents the concept of 'Fault pattern analysis and Restoration prediction model using Data mining techniques’, which is based on accumulated fault record of pole transformers in the past. For this, it also suggests external and internal causes of fault which influence the fault pattern of pole transformers. It is expected that we can reduce not only defects in manufacturing procedure by upgrading quality but also the time of predicting fault patterns and recovering when faults occur by using the result.

Material defects in the Steam Generator Tubes (SGT) of sodium cooled fast breeder reactor (PFBR) can lead to leakage of water into sodium. The water and sodium reaction will lead to major accidents. Therefore, the examination of steam generator tubes for the early detection of defects is an important requirement for safety and economic considerations. In this work, the Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) based Non Destructive Testing (NDT) technique is used to perform the defect detection process. The rectangular notch defects on the outer surface of steam generator tubes are modeled using COMSOL multiphysics 4.3a software. The obtained MFL images are de-noised to improve the integrity of flaw related information. Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) features are extracted from MFL images and taken as input parameter to train the neural network. A comparative study on characterization have been carried out using feed-forward back propagation (FFBP) and cascade-forward back propagation (CFBP) algorithms. The results of both algorithms are evaluated with Mean Square Error (MSE) as a prediction performance measure. The average percentage error for length, depth and width are also computed. The result shows that the feed-forward back propagation network model performs better in characterizing the defects.

The hemming process, composed of flanging, pre-hemming and main hemming, is the last one of a series of forming processes conducted on the automotive panels, having greater influence on the outward appearance of cars rather than on their performance. The hem quality can be quantitatively defined by the hemming defects including turn-down/up, warp and roll-in/out. However, it is difficult to evaluate and predict the hem quality through an experimental measurement or a numerical calculation since the size of defects is very small. This study aims to precisely evaluate the hemming defects, especially turn-down and roll-in, through numerical and experimental approaches and to investigate the influence of process parameters on the hem quality, focused on how to simulate the same conditions as in the experiment by the finite element analysis (FEA). The FEA results on the turn-down and roll-in obtained from a model composed of the optimum-sized elements, including a spring element linked to the flanging pad, and given the double master contact condition between the inner and outer panels, had a good correlation with the experimental data. It is thought possible to make an early estimate of the hem quality in a practical automotive design by applying the methodology proposed in this study.

최근 지능형 스마트 디바이스의 눈부신 발전과 사용으로 개발 단계의 소프트웨어 결함 관리의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 효과적 결함 관리를 위해 소프트웨어 메트릭을 토대로 많은 결함 예측 모델 연구가 수행되고 있지만, 결함 예측 모델 연구 성과가 널리 확산되지는 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 결함 존재 유무에 관한 이진적 결함 예측 모델의 제약을 극복할 수 있도록, 베이지안 네트워크 기반 확률적 소프트웨어 메트릭 관리 방법을 제안한다. 제안 모델은 소프트웨어 메트릭을 활용하여 베이지안 네트워크를 구성하고, 이를 토대로 베이지안 추론을 수행하여 리팩토링을 위한 개선점을 식별할 수 있는 모델이다. 코드 리팩토링을 통해 소스 코드가 개선되면 관련 메트릭 측정값 또한 변하게 된다. 제안 모델은 리팩토링을 통한 메트릭의 개선으로 얻을 수 있는 결함 제거 효과를 확률 값으로 제시해준다. 따라서 이진 값 형태의 확정성을 극복할 수 있으며, 불확정적인 확률 값으로 의사결정의 유연성을 확보할 수 있을 것이다.
