Based on the observation that insurance companies in Korea, unlike those in other financial sectors and those in other countries, dominantly use the agent-based push-type marketing strategy, this paper hypothesizes that difference in distribution systems originating from characteristics of financial products can lead to welfare asymmetry between financial institutions and customers, merely due to their financial matching. For this analysis, we employ a simple matching theoretic model, try to understand the welfare implications of distribution systems from a matching theoretic perspective, and analyze the bottom of negative perceptions of insurance industry. The proposed model suggests that this welfare asymmetry derives mainly from financial matching through the distribution systems, which implies that any efforts to improve the insurance industry must consider changes in the matching process, namely the distribution system. We hope that this paper complements and extends the existing literature on insurance distribution systems in terms of methodologies and research subjects.

In this paper, we develop the probability matching priors for the parameters of non-regular Pareto distribution. We prove the propriety of joint posterior distribution induced by probability matching priors. Through the simulation study, we show that the proposed probability matching Prior matches the coverage probabilities in a frequentist sense. A real data example is given.

In this paper, we develop noninformative priors for two parameter Pareto distribution. Specially, we derive Jereys' prior, probability matching prior and reference prior for the parameter of interest. In our case, the probability matching prior is only a first order matching prior and there does not exist a second order matching prior. Some simulation reveals that the matching prior performs better to achieve the coverage probability. A real example is also considered.

In this paper, we develop noninformative priors for the generalized Pareto distribution when the scale parameter is of interest. We developed the rst order and the second order matching priors. We revealed that the second order matching prior does not exist. It turns out that the reference prior and Jeffrey's prior do not satisfy a first order matching criterion, and Jeffreys' prior, the reference prior and the matching prior are different. Some simulation study is performed and a real example is given.

In this paper, we develop the reference and the matching priors for the reliability function of two-parameter exponential distribution. We derive the reference priors and the matching prior, and prove the propriety of joint posterior distribution under the general prior including the reference priors and the matching prior. Through the sim-ulation study, we show that the proposed reference priors match the target coverage probabilities in a frequentist sense.

In this paper, we develop the noninformative priors for the scale parameter and the shape parameter in the log-logistic distribution. We developed the first and second order matching priors. It turns out that the second order matching prior matches the alternative coverage probabilities, and is a highest posterior density matching prior. Also we revealed that the derived reference prior is the second order matching prior for both parameters, but Jerffrey's prior is not a second order matching prior. We showed that the proposed reference prior matches the target coverage probabilities in a frequentist sense through simulation study, and an example based on real data is given.

This paper considers the noninformative priors for the linear function of parameters in the lognormal distribution. The lognormal distribution is applied in the various areas, such as occupational health research, environmental science, monetary units, etc. The linear function of parameters in the lognormal distribution includes the expectation, median and mode of the lognormal distribution. Thus we derive the probability matching priors and the reference priors for the linear function of parameters. Then we reveal that the derived reference priors do not satisfy a first order matching criterion. Under the general priors including the derived noninformative priors, we check the proper condition of the posterior distribution. Some numerical study under the developed priors is performed and real examples are illustrated.

OpenCV (Open Computer Vision)에서 제공하는 얼굴 인식 알고리즘에서는 Haar 특징(Haar feature)들과 대상 영상의 정합 과정인 Haar 매칭 (Haar Matching)을 통하여 얼굴을 검출하는데, 이때 Haar 특징들은 정면 얼굴로 구성된 훈련 영상을 통해 학습된다. 따라서 OpenCV의 얼굴 검출 방법은 정면 얼굴에 대해서는 높은 얼굴 검출율을 보이지만, 정면을 응시하지 않거나 얼굴의 형태가 변형된 경우에는 얼굴을 정확하게 검출하지 못하는 경우가 빈번히 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 측면 얼굴 혹은 형태가 변형된 얼굴에서도 컬러 히스토그램의 분포 특성은 유사하다고 가정하고, 히스토그램 패턴 매칭(histogram pattern matching)을 이용한 얼굴 검출 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법에서는 Haar 매칭 오류가 발생한 프레임에 대하여, 정확하게 검출된 이전 프레임의 얼굴 영역에 대한 히스토그램 패턴 매칭을 통하여 가장 유사한 히스토그램 분포를 갖는 영역을 얼굴로 인식한다. 제안한 방법의 얼굴 검출 알고리즘의 성능을 평가하기 위한 모의실험에서 제안한 얼굴 검출 방법이 OpenCV보다 얼굴 검출율이 8% 정도 향상됨을 확인하였다.
