Optimization of the turning process has been concentrated on the selection of the optimal cutting parameters, such as cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut. However, optimization of the cutting parameters does not necessarily guarantee the maximum profit. For the maximization of the profit, parameters other than cutting parameters have to be taken care of. In this study, 8 price-related parameters were considered to maximize the profit of the product. Regression equations obtained from RSM technique to relate the cutting parameters and maximum cutting volume with a given insert were used. The experiments with four combinations of cutting inserts and material were executed to compare the results that made the profit and cutting volume maximized. The results showed that the cutting parameters for volume and profit maximization were totally different. Contrary to our intuition, global optimization was achieved when the number of inserts change was larger than those for volume maximization. It is attributed to the faster cutting velocity, which decreases processing time and increasing the number of tool used and the total tool changing time.

In this study, we evaluated the potential of 70% ethanol extract from Persicaria nepalensis (PNE) as a cosmetic ingredient by primary skin irritation, ocular irritation, and maximization tests for delayed hypersensitivity in New Zealand white rabbits and Hartley guinea pig. Skin safety study was performed to evaluate the potential toxicity of PNE using the primary irritation test. In the primary irritation test, 50% PNE was applied to the skin, and no adverse reactions such as erythema and edema were observed at the intact skin sites. Therefore, PNE was classified as a practically non-irritating material based on a primary irritation index of "0.0.". In the ocular irritation test, the 50% PNE applied did not show any adverse reactions in the different parts of rabbit eyes, including the cornea, iris, and conjunctiva. Thus, PNE was classified as a practically non-irritating material based on an acute ocular irritation index of "0.0.". Skin sensitization was tested by the Guinea Pig Maximization Test (GPMT) and Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FCA) using an intradermal injection of 10% PNE. Edema and erythema were not observed 24 and 48 h after the topical application of PNE in skin sensitization test, which exhibited a sensitization score of "0.0.". Therefore, it can be suggested that P. nepalensis could be used as potential candidates for cosmoceutical ingredients, without any major side effects.

We consider the D2D sum utility maximization in the cellular system. D2D links reuse the uplink resource of cellular system. This reuse may cause severe interference to cellular users. To protect the cellular users, interference limit from the D2D links is required. In this setting, D2D sum utility maximization problem is investigated. Each D2D link has limited transmit power budget. Because optimum solution may require global information between links and computational complexity, we propose the distributed algorithm which only require the local information from each D2D link and simple broadcasting. Simulation results are provided to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm.

기 구축되어있는 베이지안 네트워크에서 다이나믹한 환경 변화가 발생 할 때, 관련된 베이지안 네트워크의 파라미터는 새롭게 형성된 데이터의 패턴에 적응하여 새로운 파라미터로 변경되어야 한다. 이때, 새로운 파라미터는 베이지안 네트워크의 인과관계를 고려하여 변경되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 Expectation Maximization(EM)알고리즘과 Meta-Heuristics 기법 중 하나인 Harmony Search(HS)알고리즘을 이용한 다이나믹한 파라미터 업데이트 프레임웍을 제안한다. 일반적으로, EM 알고리즘은 숨겨진 파라미터를 추정하는데 유효한 알고리즘이지만 지역 최적값에 수렴한다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서 본 논문은 Maximum Likelihood Estimator(MLE)의 파라미터가 글로벌 최적값을 지향하도록 하기위하여 메타휴리스틱 방법론의 하나인 HS를 적용한다. 제안된 방법은 EM 알고리즘의 단점을 보완하고 글로벌 최적값에 수렴하는 MLE의 파라미터를 추정하여 다이나믹하게 변화하는 환경에서도 사용 가능한 베이지안 네트워크의 학습 및 전파프레임웍을 제시한다.

An algorithm is proposed to seek a local optimal solution of the network utility maximization problem in a wireless mesh network, where the architecture being considered is an infrastructure/backbone wireless mesh network. The objective is to achieve proportional fairness amongst the end-to-end flows in wireless mesh networks. In order to establish the communication constraints of the flow rates in the network utility maximization problem, we have presented necessary and sufficient conditions for the achievability of the flow rates. Since wireless mesh networks are generally considered as a type of ad hoc networks, similarly as in wireless multi-hop network, the network utility maximization problem in wireless mesh network is a nonlinear nonconvex programming problem. Besides, the gateway/bridge functionalities in mesh routers enable the integration of wireless mesh networks with various existing wireless networks. Thus, the rate optimization problem in wireless mesh networks is more complex than in wireless multi-hop networks.

In recent decades, many countries have introduced competition in the electricity industry. Now, unit commitment becomes not a problem to be solved by a monopoly company but the one to be tackled by each generation company(GENCO). Its aim has been altered from the global cost minimization to the each GENCO's profit maximization. In this paper, the author proposes the scheme of unit commitment of a GENCO to maximize profit considering the uncertainty of market clearing price. The type of the assumed market is a uniform price market. A genetic algorithm is used for the maximization of the profit.

In cooperative multi-relay networks, the relay nodes which are selected are very important to the system performance. How to choose the best cooperative relay nodes is an optimization problem. In this paper, multi-relay selection schemes which consider either single objective or multi-objective are proposed based on evolutionary algorithms. Firstly, the single objective optimization problems of multi-relay selection considering signal to noise ratio (SNR) or power efficiency maximization are solved based on the quantum bee colony optimization (QBCO). Then the multi-objective optimization problems of multi-relay selection considering SNR maximization and power consumption minimization (two contradictive objectives) or SNR maximization and power efficiency maximization (also two contradictive objectives) are solved based on non-dominated sorting quantum bee colony optimization (NSQBCO), which can obtain the Pareto front solutions considering two contradictive objectives simultaneously. Simulation results show that QBCO based multi-relay selection schemes have the ability to search global optimal solution compared with other multi-relay selection schemes in literature, while NSQBCO based multi-relay selection schemes can obtain the same Pareto front solutions as exhaustive search when the number of relays is not very large. When the number of relays is very large, exhaustive search cannot be used due to complexity but NSQBCO based multi-relay selection schemes can still be used to solve the problems. All simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.

In this paper we present a color image segmentation algorithm based on statistical models. A novel deterministic annealing Expectation Maximization(EM) formula is derived to estimate the parameters of the Gaussian Mixture Model(GMM) which represents the multi-colored objects statistically. The experimental results show that the proposed deterministic annealing EM is a global optimal solution for the ML parameter estimation and the image field is segmented efficiently by using the parameter estimates.

The discussion in this paper aims to introduce an approach to detect drowsiness with Android based smartphones using the OpenCV platform tools. OpenCV for Android actually provides powerful tools for real-time body's parts tracking. We discuss here about the maximization of the accuracy in real-time eye tracking. Then we try to develop an approach for detecting eye blink by analyzing the structure and color variations of human eyes. Finally, we introduce a time variable to capture drowsiness.

최근 들어 모바일 디바이스와 GPS(Global Positioning System)의 발전으로 다양한 위치 기반 서비스(Location-Based Servises, LBS)를 활용할 수 있게 되었다. LBS 사용자는 서비스를 이용하기 위해 자신의 위치 정보를 서비스 제공자에게 노출한다. 이 과정에서 개인의 민감한 정보를 침해할 가능성이 있으므로 사용자의 위치 데이터를 변조하여 프라이버시를 보존할 수 있는 Geo-indistinguishability(Geo-Ind) 기법이 많이 활용되고 있다. 그러나 Geo-Ind 기법으로 인하여 사용자로부터 변조된 데이터를 수집하는 경우, LBS 제공자는 사용자 분포에 대한 정확한 정보를 얻을 수 없다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 Geo-Ind 기법을 이용하여 사용자로부터 수집한 변조된 위치 데이터로부터 사용자 분포에 대한 정보를 정확하게 계산하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 특히, Expectation-Maximization(EM) 기법을 이용하여 변조된 데이터로부터 사용자의 위치 분포를 정확하게 예측하기 위한 기법을 제안한다. 또한 실제 데이터를 이용해 제안 기법의 우수성을 입증한다.
