The purpose of this study is to examine how female labor force participation, family policies, and gender equality are related to fertility rate across countries. Multiple measures has been collected from various data sources(such as OECD, UNDP, and WVS) and the panel data set which includes (mostly) OECD countries range from 1990 to 2019 are analyzed. The major findings are as follows. First, based on OECD countries samples, female labor force participation is positively associated with the fertility rate, which implies that women's labor force participation does not lead to a reduction in fertility rate. Second, the length of paternity leave is positively associated with fertility rate whereas the direction is the opposite for the relationship between the length of maternity leave and fertility rate. This is attributed to the possibility that a longer period of maternity leave incurs the a higher opportunity cost of earning income, which leads to a reduced fertility rate. Third, countries with higher gender inequality index tend to have a higher fertility rate. Similarly, countries with higher gender equality value have a lower fertility rate. When the gender equality value is devideed into three sub-categories, education, politics, and employment, the gender equality value in education is the only sub-category which is negatively associated with the fertility rate. This study confirms that female labor force participation may not be a contributing factor in the lowering of fertility rate but instead can be positively associated with the fertility rate. Also, the results show that family policies or gender equality values can be significantly affect fertility rate.

In this paper, we present a new automatic thresholding algorithm based on maximum entropy of two-dimensional pixel histogram. While most of the previous algorithms select thresholds depending only on the histogram of gray level itself in the image, the presented algorithm considers 2D relational histogram of gray levels of two adjacent pixels in the image. Thus, the new algorithm tends to leave salient edge features on the image after thresholding. The experimental results show the good performance of the presented algorithm.

The smoothing parameter $\lambda$ in smoothing spline regression is usually selected by minimizing cross-validation (CV) or generalized cross-validation (GCV). But, simple CV or GCV is poor candidate for estimating prediction error. We defined MGCV (Multifold Generalized Cross-validation) as a criterion for selecting smoothing parameter in smoothing spline regression. This is a version of cross-validation using $leave-\kappa-out$ method. Some numerical results comparing MGCV and GCV are done.

Multiple regression and stepwise logistic regression was conducted to examine the relationships of work conditions, individual characteristics, and burnout (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, personal fulfillment). Subjects were 144 early childhood educators. Teachers most likely to leave the profession were more educated, has less teaching experience and reported higher levels of burnout (i.e. high emotional exhaustion and lower personal fulfillment). Turnover was also predicted by high depersonalization, lower personal fulfillment, working overtime, and perceived choice of other jobs. Implications of these results for early childhood programs were discussed.

Since 1997, when a new educational system that encourages faculties instead of departments in universities is first introduced, students have much more chance to choose and leave their majors than before. As a result, colleges of basic arts and sciences confront with a serious problem since lots of students have left their majors at the colleges. In this paper, we analyze and provide a predictive model for those students in a university using decision trees.

For a given gauge invariant state $\omega$ on the CAR algebra A isomorphic with the C$\ast$ -algebra of $2{\times}2$ complex matrices, we construct a family of quantum Markov semigroups on A which leave w invariant. By analyzing their generators, we decompose the algebra A into four eigenspaces of the semigroups and show some properties.

Performance specifications leave out unnesessary “how to” or detail and give the manufacturer latitude to determine how to best meet our stated needs. This will increase MND's access to commercial, state-of-the-art technology. However, we find that it is too early to expand the use of performance specification due to the poor domestic infrastructure. To expand the use of performance specification in defense area, this paper suggests the basic principles about which items we should select and which procedeure we should follow.

This paper considers the unconstrained global optimization with the revised filled function methods. The minimization sequence could leave from a local minimizer to a better minimizer of the objective function through minimizing an auxiliary function constructed at the local minimizer. Some promising numerical results are also included.

An audit tracer is one of the last ways to defend an attack for network equipments. Firewall and IDS which block off an attack in advance are active way and audit tracing is passive way which analogizes a type and a situation of an attack from log after an attack. This paper explains importance of audit trace function in network equipment for security and defines events which we must leave by security audit log. We design and implement security audit system for secure router. This paper explains the reason why we separate general audit log and security audit log.

본 연구는 1992 Health and Retirement Survey(HRS' the Beta Release)를 사용하여 유산상속 결정에 미치는 영향요인을 분석하였다 조사를 위해 사용된 표본은 55세이상의 노 인 2,208명이었으며 표본 특성을 파악하기 위해 평균과 빈도를 분석하였고 유산상속 결정에 미치는 영향요인을 조사하기 위해 Probit 분석을 수행하였다 분석결과 주택지분액이 클수록 저축.CD.채권.주식보유액이 많은 노인일수록 유산상속을 할가능성이 높게나타났다 또한 교육수준이 높거나 백인 노인의 경우는 교육수준이 낮거나 백인이 아닌 경우보다 유산상속 을 할 가능성이 높았다 반면 건강상태가 나쁘거나 자녀수가 많은 노인은 유산상속을 할 가 능성이 낮게 나타났다.
