In the most of recognizing systems of hand-written numbers. extraction of feature shape by using character elements shapes and a method of morphological analysis by using then extraction of feature shapes were usually used. In this paper, however, peculiar chain-code is used, and differential code which gets minimal value by differentiating the chain-code which is generated by the peculiar chain-code is made. We found this differential code is very successful in discriminating hand-written numbers according to the result of applying to most of the hand-written numbers. Testing recognition of hand-written numbers by HMM network. From the results, we can recognize of 96.1 percentage hand-written numbers but can not recognize extremely distorted hand-written numbers.

The online collection of coarse-grained traffic information, such as the total number of flows, is gaining in importance due to a wide range of applications, such as congestion control and network security. In this paper, we focus on an active queue management scheme called SRED since it estimates the number of active flows and uses the quantity to indicate the level of congestion. However, SRED has several limitations, such as instability in estimating the number of active flows and underestimation of active flows in the presence of non-responsive traffic. We present a Markov model to examine the capability of SRED in estimating the number of flows. We show how the SRED cache hit rate can be used to quantify the number of active flows. We then propose a modified SRED scheme, called hash-based two-level caching (HaTCh), which uses hashing and a two-level caching mechanism to accurately estimate the number of active flows under various workloads. Simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme provides a more accurate estimation of the number of active flows than SRED, stabilizes the estimation with respect to workload fluctuations, and prevents performance degradation by efficiently isolating non-responsive flows.

In this paper, we propose a behavior pattern analysis method for users tasking on hands-on security exercise missions. By analysing and evaluating the observed user behavior data, the proposed method discovers some significant patterns able to contribute mission successes or fails. A Markov chain modeling approach and algorithm is used to automate the whole analysis process. How to apply and understand our proposed method is briefly shown through a case study, "network service configurations for secure web service operation".

Today, the application area and scope of FANET(Flying Ad Hoc Network) has been extended. As a result, FANET related research are actively conducted, but there is no decision yet as the routing protocol for FANET. In this paper, we propose the OLSR-Pds (Prediction with direction and speed) which is added a method to predict status of link for OLSR protocol. The mobility of nodes are modeled using Gauss-Markov algorithm, and relative speed between nodes were calculated by derive equation of movement, and thereby we can predict link status. An experiment for comparing AODV, OLSR and, OLSR-Pds was conducted by three factors such as packet delivery ratio, end to end delay, and routing overhead. In experiment result, we were confirm that OLSR-Pds performance are superior in these three factors. OLSR-Pds has the disadvantage that requires time-consuming calculations for link state and required for computing resources, but we were confirm that OLSR-Pds is suitable for routing to the FANET environment because it has all the characteristics of proactive protocol and reactive protocol.

In this paper, we propose a mobility estimation model based on inner regions in a cell and a dynamic resource reservation scheme which can control dynamically classes of mobile hosts on the mobile network. The mobility estimation model is modeled based on the reducible Markov chain. And the mobility estimation model provides a new hand off probability and a new remaining time for the dynamic resource reservation scheme. The remaining time is n estimated time that mobile hosts can stay in a cell. The dynamic resource reservation scheme can reserve dynamically a requested resource according to the classes of mobile hosts. This scheme can efficiently improve the connection blocking probability and connection dropping probability.

실세계의 여러 문제들은 마르코프 결정 문제(Markov decision problem, MDP)로 표현될 수 있고, 이 MDP는 모델이 알려진 경우에는 평가치 반복(value iteration) 이나 모델이 알려지지 않은 경우에도 강화 학습(reinforcement learning) 알고리즘 등을 사용하여 풀 수 있다. 하지만 이들 알고리즘들은 시간 복잡도가 높아 크기가 큰 실세계 문제에 적용하기 쉽지 않아, MDP를 계층적으로 분할하거나, 여러 단계를 묶어서 수행하는 등의 시간적 추상화(temporal abstraction) 방법이 제안되어 왔다. 이러한 시간적 추상화 방법들의 문제점으로는 시간적 추상화의 디자인에 따라 MDP의 풀이 성능이 크게 달라질 수 있으며, 많은 경우 사용자가 이 디자인을 직접 제공해야 한다는 것들이 있다. 최근 사용자의 간섭이 필요 없이 자동적으로 시간적 추상화를 만드는 방법들이 제안된 바 있으나, 이들 방법들 역시 결과물에 대한 이론적인 성능 보장(performance guarantee)은 제공하지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 MDP의 구조와 그 풀이 성능을 연관짓는 복잡도 척도에 대해 살펴본다. 이를 위해 MDP로부터 얻은 상태 경로 그래프(state trajectory graph)의 위상적 성질들을 여러 네트워크 척도(network measurements) 들을 이용하여 측정하고, 이와 MDP의 풀이 성능과의 관계를 다양한 상황에 대해 실험적, 이론적으로 분석해 보았다.

In this paper, we study optimal tradeoffs of achievable throughput versus consumed power in wireless ad-hoc networks formed by a collection of multiple antenna nodes. Relying on adaptive modulation and/or dynamic channel coding rate allocation techniques for multiple antenna systems, we examine the maximization of throughput under power constraints as well as the minimization of transmission power under throughput constraints. In our examination, we also consider the impacts of enforcing quality of service requirements expressed in the form of channel coding block loss constraints. In order to properly model temporally correlated loss observed in fading wireless channels, we propose the use of finite-state Markov chains. Details of fading statistics of signal-to-interference-noise ratio, an important indicator of transmission quality, are presented. Further, we objectively inspect complexity versus accuracy tradeoff of solving our proposed optimization problems at a global as oppose to a local topology level. Our numerical simulations profile and compare the performance of a variety of scenarios for a number of sample network topologies.

Backoff mechanism serves as one of the key technologies in the MAC-layer of wireless mobile networks. The traditional Binary Exponential Backoff (BEB) mechanism in IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) and other existing backoff mechanisms poses several performance issues. For instance, the Contention Window (CW) oscillations occur frequently; a low delay QoS guarantee cannot be provided for real-time transmission, and services with different priorities are not differentiated. For these problems, we present a novel Multi-Priority service differentiated and Adaptive Backoff (MPAB) algorithm over IEEE 802.11 DCF for wireless mobile networks in this paper. In this algorithm, the backoff stage is chosen adaptively according to the channel status and traffic priority, and the forwarding and receding transition probability between the adjacent backoff stages for different priority traffic can be controlled and adjusted for demands at any time. We further employ the 2-dimensional Markov chain model to analyze the algorithm, and derive the analytical expressions of the saturation throughput and average medium access delay. Both the accuracy of the expressions and the algorithm performance are verified through simulations. The results show that the performance of the MPAB algorithm can offer a higher throughput and lower delay than the BEB algorithm.

In the present study, we applied various machine learning techniques comparatively for prediction of subsurface structures based on multiple secondary information (i.e., well-logging data). The machine learning techniques employed in this study are Naive Bayes classification (NB), artificial neural network (ANN), support vector machine (SVM) and logistic regression classification (LR). As an alternative model, conventional hidden Markov model (HMM) and modified hidden Markov model (mHMM) are used where additional information of transition probability between primary properties is incorporated in the predictions. In the comparisons, 16 boreholes consisted with four different materials are synthesized, which show directional non-stationarity in upward and downward directions. Futhermore, two types of the secondary information that is statistically related to each material are generated. From the comparative analysis with various case studies, the accuracies of the techniques become degenerated with inclusion of additive errors and small amount of the training data. For HMM predictions, the conventional HMM shows the similar accuracies with the models that does not relies on transition probability. However, the mHMM consistently shows the highest prediction accuracy among the test cases, which can be attributed to the consideration of geological nature in the training of the model.

The IEEE 802.15.6 standard is introduced to satisfy all the requirements for monitoring systems operating in, on, or around the human body. In this paper, analytical models are developed for evaluating the performance of the IEEE 802.15.6 CSMA/CA-based medium access control protocol for wireless body area networks (WBAN) under unsaturation condition. We employ a three-dimensional Markov chain to model the backoff procedure, and an M/G/1/K queuing system to describe the packet queues in the buffer. The throughput and delay performances of WBAN operating in the beacon mode are analyzed in heterogeneous network comprised of different user priorities. Simulation results are included to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed analytical model.
