해운 및 항만물류 환경의 변화로 말미암아, 현재 아시아 항만들은 치열한 경쟁상황에 놓여 있으며, 권역내 거대중심항이 되기 위한 집중적인 투자와 체계적인 전략수립을 추진하고 있다. 따라서, 현시점에서 아시아 항만의 경쟁력을 분석/분류하고 평가하는 것은 부산항이 속해 있는 우리나라의 입장에서 매우 중요한 연구임에 틀림없다. 그러나, 이와 관련하여 다수의 기존연구가 수행되어 왔지만, 연구의 대상을 아시아 항만을 뛰어넘어 세계 주요항만으로 하거나, 게다가 어떤 객관적인 기준이 없이 단순히 해당시점에 널리 회자되고 있는 항만들을 대상으로 하여, 부산항의 입장에서 실질적이고 명확한 분석지표로 활용되기 곤란한 연구가 대부분이었다. 또한 연구의 방법론적 측면에서 기존연구들은 크게 AHP(Analytical Hierarchy Process)법과 같은 계층평가알고리즘과 군집분석법(Clustering analysis)을 이용하여 항만의 순위를 정하거나 항만을 동일군으로 군집화하여 분석을 행하였으나, 이 두 가지 방법은 알고리즘상 고유의 문제점을 가지고 있어, 분석법에 따른 해석의 편중이 빈번히 발생하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 항만인프라와 관련한 경쟁력요소를 중심으로 아시아 주요항만을 경쟁수준별로 체계적으로 분류하는 것이다. 특히, 기존연구의 문제점을 극복하기 위해 본 연구에서는 객관적인 지표에 의거하여 아시아 주요 대상 항만을 선정했다. 게다가 연구 방법론의 측면에서 기존의 군집분석법의 문제점을 보완하기 위해서 FCM(Fuzzy C-means)기법을 이용하여 분석을 수행하였다. 분석결과, 아시아 16개 주요 항만들 중 10개 항만이 독자적인 위상을 가지고 4가지 항만군을 형성하고 있었으며, 나머지 6개항만은 다른 10개 항만들과 같은 독자적인 특성을 보이지 않아, 현시점에서 하나의 군집으로 명확히 분류될 수 없는 것으로 분석되었다. 게다가, 독자적 위상을 가지고 있지 않은 항만들 중, 몇 개의 항만은 향후 변화의 가능성이 매우 높고 그리고 아시아 항만전체의 판도변화의 주역으로 발전할 가능성도 높은 항만으로 분석되었다. 이러한 분석결과는 아시아 항만의 판도의 고찰과 더불어 다각도로 고찰되었으며, 그러한 고찰결과에 기초하여 끝으로 부산항의 현재위상과 대략적인 앞으로의 방향이 제시되었다.

In this paper, we develop a design methodology of granular-based neurocomputing networks realized with the aid of the clustering techniques. The objective of this paper is modeling and evaluation of approximation and generalization capability of the Linear-Type Superconducting Power Supply (LTSPS). In contrast with the plethora of existing approaches, here we promote a development strategy in which a topology of the network is predominantly based upon a collection of information granules formed on a basis of available experimental data. The underlying design tool guiding the development of the granular-based neurocomputing networks revolves around the Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering method and the Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network. In contrast to "standard" Radial Basis Function neural networks, the output neuron of the network exhibits a certain functional nature as its connections are realized as local linear whose location is determined by the membership values of the input space with the aid of FCM clustering. To modeling and evaluation of performance of the linear-type superconducting power supply using the proposed network, we describe a detailed characteristic of the proposed model using a well-known NASA software project data.

영상 분할을 위한 클러스터링에서는 방대한 계산량과 전형적인 분할 오류가 중요한 문제점으로 지적되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제들을 최소화하기 위한 새로운 기법을 제안한다. 마커-제어 유역변환(marker- controlled watershed transform)에서 마커는 영역 확장의 시작점이므로, 분할된 각 영역을 대표하는 성질을 가진다. 따라서 마커 화소로 제한하는 클러스터링으로 계산 복잡도를 줄일 수 있다. 제안한 기법에서는 가보 필터(gabor filter)의 질감 에너지에서 마커를 선택하고, FCM(fuzzy c-means) 클러스터링으로 마커의 군집을 형성하며, 유역변환에서 생성된 영역들을 마커의 군집정보를 이용하여 병합한다. Brodatz 영상 조합에 대한 성능 실험에서 클러스터링 특유의 얼룩(blob) 분할 오류를 현저하게 개선하였으며, 영상 분할 소요 시간 비교에서 기존의 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘보다 소요 시간이 적었다. 또한, 전체적으로 일정한 분할 소요시간을 보여주었다.

The number of senior citizens with large bowel obstruction is steadily growing in Korea. Plain radiography was used to examine the severity and treatment of this phenomenon. To avoid examiner subjectivity in radiography readings, we propose an automatic segmentation method to identify fluid-filled areas indicative of large bowel obstruction. Our proposed method applies the Hough transform to locate suspicious areas successfully and applies the possibilistic fuzzy c-means unsupervised learning algorithm to form the target area in a noisy environment. In an experiment with 104 real-world large-bowel obstruction radiographs, the proposed method successfully identified all suspicious areas in 73 of 104 input images and partially identified the target area in another 21 images. Additionally, the proposed method shows a true-positive rate of over 91% and false-positive rate of less than 3% for pixel-level area formation. These performance evaluation statistics are significantly better than those of the possibilistic c-means and fuzzy c-means-based strategies; thus, this hybrid strategy of automatic segmentation of large bowel suspicious areas is successful and might be feasible for real-world use.

In this paper, we propose an efficient method to detect shot changes in compressed MPEG video data by using reference features among video frames. The reference features among video frames imply the similarities among adjacent frames by prediction coded type of each frame. A shot change is detected if the similarity degrees of a frame and its adjacent frames are low. And the shot change detection algorithm is improved by using Fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm. The FCM clustering algorithm uses the shot change probabilities evaluated in the mask matching of reference ratios and difference measure values based on frame reference ratios.

In power system, substation facilities have become too complex and larger according to an extended power system. Also, customers require the high quality of electrical power system. However, some facilities become old and often break down unexpectedly. The unexpected failure may cause a break in power system and loss of profits. Therefore it is important to prevent abrupt faults by monitoring the condition of power systems. Among the various power facilities, power transformers play an important role in the transmission and distribution systems. In this research, we develop intelligent diagnosis technique for predicting faults of power transformer by FCM(Fuzzy c-means) and Euclidean based distance measure. The proposed technique make it possible to measures the possibility and degree of aging as well as the faults occurred in transformer. To demonstrate the validity of proposed method, various experiments are performed and their results are presented.

This paper proposes a new call admission control scheme utilizing an inverse fuzzy vector quantizer(IFVQ) and neural net, which combines benefits of IFVQ and flexibilities of FCM(Fuzzy-C-Menas) arithmatics, to decide whether a requested call that is not trained in learning phase to be connected or not. The system generates the estimated traffic pattern of the cell stream of a new call, using feasible/infeasible patterns in codebook, fuzzy membership values that represent the degree to which each pattern of codebook matches input pattern, and FCM arithmatics. The input to the NN is the vector consisted of traffic parameters which is the means and variances of the number of cells arriving inthe interval. After training(using error back propagation algorithm), when the NN is used for decision making, the decision as to whether to accept or reject a new call depends on whether the output is greater or less then decision threshold(+0.5). This method is a new technique for call admi sion control using the membership values as traffic parameter which declared to CAC at the call set up stage, and is valid for a very general traffic model in which the calls of a stream can belong to an unlimited number of traffic classes. Through the simmulation. it is founded the performance of the suggested method outforms compared to the conventional NN method.

In this study, we develop the very short-term precipitation forecasting model as well as classifier based on polynomial radial basis function neural networks by using AWS(Automatic Weather Station) and KLAPS(Korea Local Analysis and Prediction System) meteorological data. The polynomial-based radial basis function neural networks is designed to realize precipitation forecasting model as well as classifier. The structure of the proposed RBFNNs consists of three modules such as condition, conclusion, and inference phase. The input space of the condition phase is divided by using Fuzzy C-means(FCM) and the local area of the conclusion phase is represented as four types of polynomial functions. The coefficients of connection weights are estimated by weighted least square estimation(WLSE) for modeling as well as least square estimation(LSE) method for classifier. The final output of the inference phase is obtained through fuzzy inference method. The essential parameters of the proposed model and classifier such ad input variable, polynomial order type, the number of rules, and fuzzification coefficient are optimized by means of Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) and Differential Evolution(DE). The performance of the proposed precipitation forecasting system is evaluated by using KLAPS meteorological data.
