This study was conducted to investigate health status of preschool children utilizing anthropometric values and serum biochemical indices. The subjects were 1,159 boys and 1,019 girls in Gumi day-care centers aged 4 to 6 years. The mean height and weight of 4, 5 and 6 year old children were 103.0 cm and 17.1 kg, 107.2 cm and 18.3 kg and 113.4 cm and 20.6 kg, respectively. By the obesity index criteria, $5\%$ of boys and $4\%$ of girls were obese whereas $10\%$ of boys and $9\%$ of girls were underweight. By the Kaup index criteria, $7\%$ of boys and $4\%$ of girls were obese. By the percentage of body fat criteria, $5\%$ of boys and girls were obese. The mean concentrations of serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, Atherogenic Index and serum glucose were 154.1-156.5 mg/dL, 80.1-81.9 mg/dL, 46.8-47.4 mg/dL, 90.9-92.8 mg/dL, 2.34-2.39 and 76.4-77.8 mg/dL, respectively. Serum triglyceride level, AI and body fat percentage of obese children were significantly higher than other children and were significantly lower in HDL-cholesterol level (p < 0.05). In addition there were significant correlation between anthropometric values and serum biochemical indices : Kaup index and obesity index were positively correlated to the systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in boys and girls (p < 0.01) and to the triglyceride concentration in boys (p < 0.05). These results indicate the need of developing and implementation of nutrition education program for preschool children to prevent further development of childhood obesity and to maintain normal serum lipid profiles.

From the viewpoint of that music melody has the similar features to time-series data, music melody is transformed to a time-series data with normalization and corrections and the similarity between melodies is defined as the Euclidean distance between the transformed time-series data. Then, based the similarity between melodies of a music object, melodies are clustered and the representative of each cluster is extracted as one of theme melodies for the music. To construct the theme melody index, a theme melody is represented as a point of the multidimensional metric space of M-tree. For retrieval of user's query melody, the query melody is also transformed into a time-series data by the same way of indexing phase. To retrieve the similar melodies to the query melody given by user from the theme melody index the range query search algorithm is used. By the implementation of the prototype system using the proposed theme melody index we show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

This study aimed to propose the approach to identify and solve the problems by analyzing the present occupation index of librarians and the future occupation index of librarians after 10 years through the comparison with other jobs. In accordance with the investigation on the LIS students and librarians, the present wage level and the estimated wage level after 10 years were lower than that for other jobs and the employment demand was also lower. Both the students(58.4%) and the librarians(64.2%) considered that the number of full-time employment and the turnover were lower than other jobs. As a result of the analysis, first, this paper proposed to change part-time workers into full-time workers for improving the low wage issue of librarians. Second, '1 public library per 50,000 citizen' was suggested to increase the employment of librarians. Finally, it is proposed to cancel the project to contract out the operation of public libraries and BTL implementation.

The user-based collaborative filtering technique, one of the implementation methods of the recommendation system, recommends the preferred items of neighboring users based on the calculations of neighboring users with similar rating histories. However, it fundamentally has a data scarcity problem in which the quality of recommendations is significantly reduced when there is little common rating history. To solve this problem, many existing studies have proposed various methods of combining Jaccard index with a similarity measure. In this study, we introduce a time-aware concept to Jaccard index and propose a method of weighting common items with different weights depending on the rating time. As a result of conducting experiments using various performance metrics and time intervals, it is confirmed that the proposed method showed the best performance compared to the original Jaccard index at most metrics, and that the optimal time interval differs depending on the type of performance metric.

Research results for LMS-based algorithms performances using real records of the traffic noise are discussed. The various algorithms based on LMS method are studied regarding their convergence speed and noise reduction index. Most effective algorithms are chosen for implementation in the active noise control barriers. The optimal step size, and number of adaptive filter taps are addressed during parametric study of the algorithms.

This paper presents an optimal design procedure to realize an BSB neural networks by means of the parametrization of solution space and optimization of parameters using evaluation program. In particular, the performance index based on DOA analysis may make an associative memory implementation reach on the level of practical success.

This chapter presents an overview of Korean intonational structure and proposes a revised version of K -ToBI (Korean TOnes and Break Indices), a prosodic transcription convention for Seoul Korean. In the new version of K-ToBI, a tone tier is separated into two tiers: a phonological tone tier and a phonetic tone tier. A phonological tone tier labels tones marking the prosodic structure of an utterance, and a phonetic tone tier labels individual tones of an AP and an IP conforming to the surface pitch contour. Labelling surface tonal patterns will provide us data to test the underlying tonal patterns and to build phonetic implementation rules.

최근 멀티미디어 객체를 위한 효율적인 색인 기술에 대한 많은 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으나 이러한 색인 구조들은 단일 사용자만을 지원하는데 그치고 있는 실정이며 상용 DBMS에 통합되어 실제 응용되는 사례는 드물다. 이에 본 논문에서는 필터링에 기반한 고차원 색인구조를 위한 효율적인 동시성 제어 기법을 제안하고, 지속성 객체 시스템인 SHORE 하부 저장 구조에 통합한다. 제안하는 동시성 제어 기법은 쓰레드의 개수를 증가시켜 삽입과 검색 측면에서 실험한 결과 약 30%의 응답시간 감소를 보였다.

Based on latest research, the parametric quality statistics cannot be used in non-normal process with demand pattern of many-variety and small-volume, since it involves extremely small sample size. The research proposes nonparametric quality statistics according to the number of lot or batch in the non-normal process. Additionally, the nonparametric Process Capability Index (PCI) is used with 14 identified non-normal distributions.
