본 논문에서는 역전파 알고리즘의 성능 개선을 위해 퍼지 제어 시스템을 적용하여 학습률을 자동으로 조정하는 개선된 역전파 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 목표값과 출력값의 차이에 대한 절대값이 $\varepsilon$ 보다 적거나 같으면 정확성으로 분류하고 크면 부정확성으로 분류한다. 정확성과 부정확성의 개수를 퍼지 제어 시스템에 적용하여 학습률을 동적으로 조정한다. 제안된 방법을 XOR 문제와 숫자 패턴 분류에 적용하여 실험한 결과, 기존의 역전파 알고리즘, 모멘텀 방식, Jacob의 delta-bar-delta 방식보다 성능이 개선됨을 확인하였다.

A numerical and experimental study on the evaluation and the prediction of cleanliness level in the mini-environment system was carried out. Using the concept of local mean air-age (LMA) and effective flow rate, the new direct method for estimating the mini-environment was developed and compared with the previous performance index of airflow pattern characteristics. It was found out that the airflow pattern analysis is a restricted method to estimate the real performance of the mini-environment. The reason is that the airflow pattern cannot predict the effect of the increment of the ventilation rate on the cleanliness level in the mini-environment. While LMA is capable of showing the effects of the contaminant accumulation caused by turbulent intensity, eddy, and the increment of the effective flow rate. This result showed that LMA is more exact and effective performance index than the previous one like the airflow pattern characteristics.

In this paper, I propose an application layer cooperative congestion control scheme for safety message broadcast in vehicular networks, called CMS, that adaptively controls a vehicle's safety message rate and transmit timing based on the channel congestion state. Motivated by the fact that all vehicles should transmit and receive an application layer safety message in a periodic manner, I directly exploit the message itself as a means of estimating the channel congestion state. In particular, vehicles can determine wider network conditions by appending their local channel estimation result onto safety message transmissions and sharing them with each other. In result CMS realizes cooperative congestion control without any modification of the existing MAC protocol. I present extensive NS-3 simulation results which show that CMS outperforms conventional congestion control schemes in terms of the packet collision rate and throughput, especially in a high-density traffic environment.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of knee joint position sense following local and general load protocols in 25 healthy male subjects. Proprioception of the knee joint was evaluated by measuring absolute angular errors at matching angles before, after and between 2 different types of load protocols. Proprioception tests(on the dominant knee) were performed in which proprioception of the passivepassive reproduced and active-active reproduced knee position was measured. Local load was provided with maximum isokinetic knee extension-flexion on the isokinetic dynamometer(Cybex), and general load was 10 minutes running on a treadmill. Peak torque(knee extension and flexion) and heart rate(beats per minute) was evaluated as an indicator of local and general fatigue during load protocols. The results were as follows: 1. For pasive-pasive reproduced knee position test, significant difference in absolute angular errors after general load protocol was detected compared with that before general load protocol(P<.05), significant difference in absolute angular errors after local load protocol was detected compared with that before local load protocol(P<.05). However, no significant difference in absolute angular errors of general load protocol was detected compared with that of local load protocol (P>.05), no significant difference in absolute angular errors of local load protocol was detected compared with that of general load protocol(P>.05). 2. For active-active reproduced knee position test, significant difference in absolute angular errors after general load protocol was detected compared with that before general load protocol(P<.05), significant difference in absolute angular errors after local load protocol was detected compared with that before local load protocol (P<.05). Also, significant difference in absolute angular errors of general load protocol was detected compared with that of local load protocol(P<.05), significant difference in absolute angular errors of local load protocol was detected compared with that of general load protocol(P<.05). 3. A significant decrease of peak torque of knee extensors and flexors was seen after local load, although heart rate was significantly increased(P<.05). No significant change of peak torque of knee extensors and flexors was seen after general load(P>.05), although heart rate was also significantly increased(P<.05). The previous study revealed that knee proprioception is significantly altered when the muscle mechanoreceptors are dysfunctional due to muscle fatigue, although the joint mechanoreceptors have no significantly effect on knee proprioception when the presence of knee muscle fatigue. However, the results of this study are different from those of the previous study in that muscle weakness of the knee could not be seen after general load. This study shows that general load may diminish motor control by the central nervous system. Proprioceptional decline without muscle weakness of knee after general load suggests a change in the proprioceptional pathway without influence from muscle mechanoreceptors.

Cooperative communications using relays in wireless networks have similar effects of multiple-input and multiple-output without the need of multiple antennas at each node. To implement cooperation into a system, efficient protocols are desired. In IEEE 802.11 families such as a/b/g, mobile stations can automatically adjust transmission rates according to channel conditions. However throughput performance degradation is observed by low-rate stations in multi-rate circumstances resulting in so-called performance anomaly. In this paper, we propose active relay-based cooperative medium access control (AR-CMAC) protocol, in which active relays desiring to transmit their own data for cooperation participate in relaying, and it is designed to increase throughput as a solution to performance anomaly. We have analyzed the performance of the simplified AR-CMAC using an embedded Markov chain model to demonstrate the gain of AR-CMAC and to verify it with our simulations. Simulations in an infrastructure network with an IEEE 802.11b/g access point show noticeable improvement than the legacy schemes.

This paper develops a methematical model for growth and exploitation of a schooling fish species using a realistic catch-rate function and imposing a tax on the catch to control harvesting. Fishing effort is assumed to depend on the net revenue. The steady states of the system are determined and their local and global stabil-ity are discussed. Taking the tax as a control variable; the optimal harvest policy is formulated and solved as a control problem. The results are illustrated with the help of a numerical example.

Total 125 patinets with primary and metastatic Ewing's sarcoma were treated in various ways between 1963 to 1977. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to the treatment methods. Group 1 was nonprotocol patients with or without chemotherapy. Total 58 patients were entered. Group 1 was divided into 2 subgroups. 33 patients were treated locally without chemotherapy and 25 Patients were treated with local therapy and nonprotocol chemotherapy. Group 2 was treated with local therapy and plus T-2 regimen multiagent chemotherapy. 29 patients were entered. Group 3 was treated with local therapy and T-6 regimen multiagent chemotherapy. 38 patients were entered. Local treatments for primary tumor were surgery and/or radiation therapy. Radiation dose ranged between 2,000 and 8,000 rad. Patients with pulmonary metastases received bilateral pulmonary RT. Local recurrence rate was analyzed according to treatment groups and was $16.8\%$. Local 15 yr survival was $33\%$ and 8 yr survival of T-6 group was $64.9\%$. An analysis of time were pattern of recurrence of each group, and the correlation of with radiation dose with local recurrence done. This study concluded that intensive multiagent chemotherapy RT and/or surgery (T-6 regimen) reduced distant metastases, and produced significant increase in local control and survival.

본 논문에서는, HCCA로 동작되는 IEEE 802.11e MAC의 Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) 구간을 동적으로 제어함으로서, 무선 Local Area Network (LAN) 환경에서 실시간 멀티미디어 트래픽의 전송 성능을 향상시키는 방식을 제안한다. 프레임의 전송 시기 및 시간을 결정하는 스케줄러의 기존 방식은 무선 단말의 전송률 변화에 상관없이 TXOP 구간을 고정하기 때문에 무선 통신 환경 변화를 동적으로 반영하지 못하는 문제점을 내포하고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 제안방식에서는 무선 단말의 전송률이 낮아지더라도 TXOP 구간이 확대됨으로서, 사용자로부터 발생된 실시간 멀티미디어 트래픽의 전송이 최대한 유지될 수 있도록 한다. 제안방식의 성능 분석을 위해, IEEE 802.11e 참조모델과 함께 NCTUns 시뮬레이터를 이용한 모의실험을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 제안방식은 무선통신 거리 변화에 따른 전송률 변화에도 실시간 멀티미디어 트래픽의 전송이 효과적으로 이루어짐을 확인하였다.

ATM switching system is made up of transport network and control newrk according to its functions. The control device, basic part of control network must be developed before developing any other functions, and control device must be stable and need high reliability. Out distributed ATM switching system consists of several ALSs that provides variable local call services, and an ACS that interconnect among several ALSs. Eech ALS has CCCP that takes charage of call and connection control functions, and ACS has an OMP that takes charge of OA&M(Operation, Administration and Maintenance) functios. In this paper, we analyzed the performance evaluation of control device that manipulate subscriber's call based on ITU-T Q.2931 standard protocol messages and Interprocessor communication messages. As a result of simulation when the number of ALS is under 22, as the call arrival rate increase the processor utilization of CCCP increase rapidly than that of OMP. When the number of ALS is incremented to 22, the processor utilization of CCCP is balanced with the of OMP, and when the number of ALS exceeds 22, the processor utiliztion of OMP increase rapidly. Also if messary processing time of OMP is 1.35 times that of CCCP, processor utilizations of CCCP and OMP is equal.

Purpose: To evaluate intracranial control after surgical resection according to the adjuvant treatment received in order to assess the optimal radiotherapy (RT) dose and volume. Materials and Methods: Between 2003 and 2015, a total of 53 patients with brain oligometastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) underwent metastasectomy. The patients were divided into three groups according to the adjuvant treatment received: whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) ${\pm}$ boost (WBRT ${\pm}$ boost group, n = 26), local RT/Gamma Knife surgery (local RT group, n = 14), and the observation group (n = 13). The most commonly used dose schedule was WBRT (25 Gy in 10 fractions, equivalent dose in 2 Gy fractions [EQD2] 26.04 Gy) with tumor bed boost (15 Gy in 5 fractions, EQD2 16.25 Gy). Results: The WBRT ${\pm}$ boost group showed the lowest 1-year intracranial recurrence rate of 30.4%, followed by the local RT and observation groups, at 66.7%, and 76.9%, respectively (p = 0.006). In the WBRT ${\pm}$ boost group, there was no significant increase in the 1-year new site recurrence rate of patients receiving a lower dose of WBRT (EQD2) <27 Gy compared to that in patients receiving a higher WBRT dose (p = 0.553). The 1-year initial tumor site recurrence rate was lower in patients receiving tumor bed dose (EQD2) of ${\geq}42.3Gy$ compared to those receiving <42.3 Gy, although the difference was not significant (p = 0.347). Conclusions: Adding WBRT after resection of brain oligometastases from NSCLC seems to enhance intracranial control. Furthermore, combining lower-dose WBRT with a tumor bed boost may be an attractive option.
