This paper proposes a new semantic representation and its associated similarity measure. The representation expresses textual context observed in a context of a certain term as a network where nodes are terms and edges are the number of cooccurrences between connected terms. To compare terms represented in networks, a graph kernel is adopted as a similarity measure. The proposed representation has two notable merits compared with previous semantic representations. First, it can process polysemous words in a better way than a vector representation. A network of a polysemous term is regarded as a combination of sub-networks that represent senses and the appropriate sub-network is identified by context before compared by the kernel. Second, the representation permits not only words but also senses or contexts to be represented directly from corresponding set of terms. The validity of the representation and its similarity measure is evaluated with two tasks: synonym test and unsupervised word sense disambiguation. The method performed well and could compete with the state-of-the-art unsupervised methods.

Reverse logistics network design issues have been popularly discussed in recent years. However, few papers in the past literature have been dedicated to incentive effect on return quantity of used products. The purpose of this study is to formulate a dynamic nonlinear programming model of reverse logistics network design with the aim of managing the used products allocation by coordinating the collection centers and recovery facilities to warrant economic efficiency. In the optimization model, a fuzzy approach is applied to interpret the relationship between the rate of return and the suggested incentives. Due to funding constraints in setting up the collection centers, this work considers these centers as multi-capacity levels, which can be opened or closed at different periods. In view of the fact that the problem is known as NP-hard, we propose a heuristic method based on tabu search procedure to solve the presented model. Finally, several dominance properties of optimal solutions are demonstrated in comparison with the results of a state-of-the-art commercial solver.

FCM 기반 RBF 네트워크는 서로 다른 학습 구조가 결합된 혼합형 모델로서, 입력층과 중간층의 학습 구조는 FCM 알고리즘을 적용하고, 중간층과 출력층 사이의 학습 구조는 Max_Min 신경망을 적용한다. 입력층과 중간층의 학습시 입력벡터와 중간층의 노드중에서 중심과 입력벡터간의 가장 가까운 노드를 승자 노드로 선택하여 출력층으로 전달한다. 그리고 중간층과 출력층 사이의 학습 구조는 Max_Min 신경망을 적용하여 중간층의 승자 뉴런이 출력층의 입력벡터로 적용한다. 하지만 많은 패턴이 입력벡터로 제시될 경우 학습 성능이 저하되는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 중간층과 출력층의 학습 구조인 Max_Min 알고리즘의 학습 성능을 개선시키기 위해 퍼지 제어시스템을 이용하여 학습률을 동적으로 조정하는 퍼지 제어 기법을 이용한 FCM 기반 RBF 네트워크를 제안한다. 제안된 방법의 학습 성능을 평가하기 위하여 컨테이너 영상에서 추출한 숫자, 영문 식별자를 학습 데이터로 적용한 결과, 기존의 ART2 기반 RBF 네트워크보다 학습 시간이 적게 소요되고, 학습의 수렴성이 개선된 것을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 LVQ를 퍼지화한 새로운 퍼지 학습 법칙들을 제안하였다. 퍼지 LVQ 학습법칙 1은 기존의 학습률 대신에 퍼지 학습률을 사용하였는데 이는 조건 확률의 퍼지화에 기반을 두고 있다. 퍼지 LVQ 학습법칙 2는 클래스들 사이에 존재하는 입력벡터가 결정 경계선에 대한 정보를 더 가지고 있는 것을 반영한 것이다. 이 새로운 퍼지 학습 법칙들을 improved IAFC(Integrted Adaptive Fuzzy Clustering)신경회로망에 적용하였다. improved IAFC신경회로망은 ART-1 (Adaptive Resonance Theory)신경회로망과 Kohonen의 Self-Organizing Feature Map의 장점을 취합한 퍼지 신경회로망이다. 제안한 supervised IAFC 신경회로망 1과 supervised IAFC neural 신경회로망 2의 성능을 오류 역전파 신경회로망의 성능과 비교하기 위하여 iris 데이터를 사용하였는데 Supervised IAFC neural network 2가 오류 역전파 신경회로망보다 성능이 우수함을 보여주었다.

Concrete undergoes a series of thermo-based physio-chemical changes once exposed to elevated temperatures. Such changes adversely alter the composition of concrete and oftentimes lead to fire-induced explosive spalling. Spalling is a multidimensional, complex and most of all sophisticated phenomenon with the potential to cause significant damage to fire-exposed concrete structures. Despite past and recent research efforts, we continue to be short of a systematic methodology that is able of accurately assessing the tendency of concrete to spall under fire conditions. In order to bridge this knowledge gap, this study explores integrating novel artificial intelligence (AI) techniques; namely, artificial neural network (ANN), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and genetic algorithm (GA), together with traditional statistical analysis (multilinear regression (MLR)), to arrive at state-of-the-art procedures to predict occurrence of fire-induced spalling. Through a comprehensive datadriven examination of actual fire tests, this study demonstrates that AI techniques provide attractive tools capable of predicting fire-induced spalling phenomenon with high precision.

본 논문에서는 퍼지 RBF 네트워크를 이용한 운송 컨테이너 식별자 인식 시스템을 제안한다. 일반적으로 운송 컨테이너의 식별자들은 크기나 위치가 정형화되어 있지 않고 외부 잡음으로 인하여 식별자의 형태가 변형될 수 있기 때문에 일정한 규칙으로 찾기는 힘들다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 특성을 고려하여 컨테이너 영상에 대해 Canny 마스크를 이용하여 에지를 검출하고, 검출된 에지 정보에서 영상획득 시 외부 광원에 의해 수직으로 길게 발생하는 잡음들을 퍼지 추론 방법을 적용하여 제거한 후에 수직 블록과 수평 블록을 검출하여 컨테이너의 식별자 영역을 추출하고 이진화한다. 이진화된 식별자 영역에 대해 검정색의 빈도수를 이용하여 흰바탕과 민바탕을 구분하고 4방향 윤광선 추적 알고리즘을 적용하여 개별 식별자를 추출한다. 개별 식별자 인식을 위해 퍼지 C-Means 알고리즘을 이용한 퍼지 RBF 네트워크를 제안하여 개별 식별자에 적용한다. 제안된 퍼지 RBF 네트워크는 퍼지 C-Means 알고리즘을 중간층으로 적용하고 중간층과 출력층 간의 학습에는 일반화된 델타 학습 방법과Delta-bar-Delta 알고리즘을 적용하여 학습 성능을 개선한다. 실제 컨테이너 영상을 대상으로 실험한 결과, 기존의 식별자 추출 방법보다 제안된 식별자 추출방법이 개선되었다. 그리고 기존의 ART2 기반 RBF 네트워크보다 제안된 퍼지 RBF 네트워크가 컨테이너 식별자의 학습 및 인식에 있어서 우수함을 확인하였다.

Effects of viscoelastic foundation on vibration of curved-beam structure with clamped and simply-supported boundary conditions is investigated in this study. In doing so, a micro-scale laminate composite beam with two piezoelectric face layer with a carbon nanotube reinforces composite core is considered. The whole beam structure is laid on a viscoelastic substrate which normally occurred in actual conditions. Due to small scale of the structure non-classical elasticity theory provided more accurate results. Therefore, nonlocal strain gradient theory is employed here to capture both nano-scale effects on carbon nanotubes and microscale effects because of overall scale of the structure. Equivalent homogenous properties of the composite core is obtained using Halpin-Tsai equation. The equations of motion is derived considering energy terms of the beam and variational principle in minimizing total energy. The boundary condition is assumed to be clamped at one end and simply supported at the other end. Due to nonlinear terms in the equations of motion, semi-analytical method of general differential quadrature method is engaged to solve the equations. In addition, due to complexity in developing and solving equations of motion of arches, an artificial neural network is design and implemented to capture effects of different parameters on the inplane vibration of sandwich arches. At the end, effects of several parameters including nonlocal and gradient parameters, geometrical aspect ratios and substrate constants of the structure on the natural frequency and amplitude is derived. It is observed that increasing nonlocal and gradient parameters have contradictory effects of the amplitude and frequency of vibration of the laminate beam.

In this paper, we propose an object tracking system which can be convinced of moving area shaped on objects through color sequential images, decided moving directions of foot messengers or vehicles of image sequences. In static camera, we suggests a new evaluating method extracting co-occurrence matrix with feature vectors of RGB after analyzing and blocking difference images, which is accessed to field of camera view for motion. They are energy, entropy, contrast, maximum probability, inverse difference moment, and correlation of RGB color vectors. we describe how to analyze and compute corresponding relations of objects between adjacent frames. In the clustering, we apply an algorithm of FCM(fuzzy c means) to analyze matching and clustering problems of adjacent frames of the featured vectors, energy and entropy, gotten from previous phase. In the matching phase, we also propose a method to know correspondence relation that can track motion each objects by clustering with similar area, compute object centers and cluster around them in case of same objects based on membership function of motion area of adjacent frames.
