The present study evaluated effect of temperature on removals of organic matter (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in Modified-Dephanox (M-Dephanox) process, which is hybrid system, comparing with those of Modified-Ludzack Ettinger (MLE) under the suspended-growth bacteria, as control. M-Dephanox process was more stable than MLE process in the removal of C, N, P, especially in nitrification, as the temperature was decreased from $25^{\circ}C$ to $16^{\circ}C$. As the temperature was decreased from $25^{\circ}C$ to $16^{\circ}C$, the removal efficiency of $NH_4{^+}-N$ of M-Dephanox process was decreased by 3.8%, but that of MLE process decreased by 25.7%. T-N removal efficiency of M-Dephanox was higher than MLE process by 27.1% and 26.9% at $25^{\circ}C$ and $16^{\circ}C$ of temperature, respectively.

In this paper, we shall derive MLE's, modified MLE, MRE and UMVUE's of the shape and scale parameters in a generalized uniform distribution, and propose several estimators for the right-tail probability in a generalized uniform distribution using the proposed estimators for the shape and scale parameters. And we shall compare exactly MSE of the proposed estimators for the shape and the scale parameters, and compare numerically efficiencies for the several proposed estimators of the right-tail probability in a generalized uniform distribution by Monte Caslo methods.

Maximum likelihood estimate(MLE) is obtained from the partial log-likelihood function for the cell probabilities of two way incomplete contingency tables proposed by Chen and Fienberg(1974). The partial log-likelihood function is modified by adding lagrangian multiplier that constraints can be incorporated with. Variances of MLE estimators of population proportions are derived from the matrix of second derivatives of the loglikelihood with respect to cell probabilities. Simulation results, when data are missing at random, reveal that Complete-case(CC) analysis produces biased estimates of joint probabilities under MAR and less efficient than either MLE or MI. MLE and MI provides consistent results under either the MAR situation. MLE provides more efficient estimates of population proportions than either multiple imputation(MI) based on data augmentation or complete case analysis. The standard errors of MLE from the proposed method using lagrangian multiplier are valid and have less variation than the standard errors from MI and CC.

본 연구는 도시하수 처리시 부유성장 미생물만을 이용하는 MLE(Modified Ludzack-Ettinger) 공정과 부유 및 부착 미생물을 동시에 활용하는 하이브리드(hybrid)형 공정인 M-Dephanox(Modified-Dephanok) 공정의 유기물, 질소 및 인 제거효율을 수리학적 체류시간에 따라 상호 비교 검토하고자 하였다. H-Dephanox 공정은 기존 Dephanox 공정의 단점을 극복하기 위하여 고안된 공정으로서 기존 Dephanox 공정에 비해 탈질 효율을 증가시킬 수 있도록 고안되었다. 수리학적 체류시간에 따른 유기물, 질소 및 인 제거효율을 관찰한 결과 하이브리드 공정인 H-Dephanox 공정이 MLE 공정에 비해 높은 제거효율이 관찰되었으며, 특히 질산화의 경우 수리학적 체류시간이 6, 5, 4, 3.5 hr으로 짧아짐에 따라 MLE 공정이 M-Dephanox 공정에 비해 질산화 영향을 더 심하게 받는 것으로 나타났다. M-Dephanox 공정의 질화반응조에서의 암모니아성 질소 제거 효율은 질산화 반응조의 HRT 1.59 hr에서 약 92%를 나타내 매우 짧은 수리학적 체류시간에서도 질산화 반응이 원활하게 일어나는 것을 관찰 할 수 있었으며, 질산화 반응조로 유입되는 유기물의 영향을 심하게 받는 것으로 관찰되었다. 질산화 반응조에서의 HRT 단축은 전체 공정의 HRT도 줄이는 결과를 가져옴을 관찰 할 수 있었다.

본 연구는 도시하수 처리시 부유성장 미생물만을 이용하는 표준 활성슬러지 공정(Conventional Activated Sludge; CAS) 및 MLE(Modified Ludzack-Ettinger) 공정과 부유 및 부착 미생물을 동시에 활용하는 하이브리드(hybrid)형 공정인 M-Dephanox(Modified-Dephanox) 공정의 유기물, 질소 및 인 제거효율을 상호 비교 검토하고자 하였다. M-Dephanox 공정은 기존 Dephanox 공정의 단점을 극복하기 위하여 고안된 공정으로서 기존 Dephanox 공정에 비해 탈질 효율을 증가시킬 수 있다. 연구 결과 부유 성장 미생물을 이용하는 MLE 공정에 비해 하이브리드형 공정인 M-Dephanox 공정의 TCOD, T-N 및 T-P 제거효율이 각각 12.3, 18.6, 28.2% 더 높게 관찰 되었다. M-Dephanox 공정이 MLE 공정에 비해 유기물 및 질소 제거 효율이 더 높은 원인은 M-Dephanox 공정이 하이브리드 공정이자 다단 슬러지 공정(multi-sludge)인 동시에 생흡착(biosorption)을 이용한 효과적인 유기물 이용 기작이 있기 때문이다. M-Dephanox 공정의 질산화 반응조에서의 암모니아성 질소 제거효율은 약 2hr의 수리학적 체류시간에서 약 96.7%로 나타나 Dephanox 공정과 관련한 기존 문헌에서 보고된 5 hr의 체류시간 보다 3 hr 짧은 수리학적 체류시간에서도 높은 암모니아성 질소 제거효율을 관찰 할 수 있어 전체 공정의 수리학적 체류시간을 줄이는데 커다란 역할을 할 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, the optimal operation parameters of MLE(Modified Ludzack-Ettinger) process treating the liquid supernatant separated from the slurry excreta of swine feedlot was studied as a promising biological treatment process. The nitrogen removal characteristics with different volume ratio between nitrification and denitrification reactor and the operational effect with different nitrogen loading rate, and different C/N($COD_{Cr}/TKN$) ratio were investigated. Based on the laboratory results, pilot MLE plant was operated to examine the effect of ambient temperature for five months including winter. The denitrification reactor which is 20% of total volume was proposed as the most optimal volume fraction for nitrification and denitrification. The optimum ratios of F/M and $F_N/M$ were increased with increase of the C/N ratio. However, optimum F/M ratio was changed more rapidly than $F_N/M$ ratio with increase of the C/N ratio. Therefore, MLE process is desirable to be controlled by F/M ratio in the range of high C/N ratio and by $F_N/M$ ratio in the range of low C/N ratio. Pilot MLE plant showed the higher removal efficiencies of COD and TKN in winter than in summer and was operated most stably at the temperature of $20{\sim}25^{\circ}C$ for mixed liqour.

This study examined a radar signal active cancelation technique, which is a theoretical way of achieving stealth by employing a baseband process that involves sampling the incoming hostile radar signal, analyzing its characteristics, and generating countermeasure signals to cancel out the linear-FM signal of the hostile radar signal reflected from the airborne target. To successfully perform an active cancelation, the effects of errors in the countermeasure signal were first analyzed. To generate the countermeasure signal that requires very fast and accurate processing, the down-sampling technique with the suboptimal maximum likelihood estimation (sMLE) scheme was proposed to improve the speed of the estimation process while preserving the estimation accuracy. The simulation results showed that the proposed down-sampling technique using a 2048 FFT size yields substantial power reduction despite its small FFT size and exhibits similar performance to the sMLE scheme using the 32768 FFT size.

In this paper we derive the higher order expansions of the first four cumulants of multi-dimensional Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) under the general parametric model up to and including terms of order O({{{{ {n }^{-1 } }}}}) Also we obtain the explicit form of the expansion of the normalizing trans formation of multi-dimensional MLE and show that the suggested normalizing process is much better than the normal approximation based on central limit theorem through example.

We propose a sequential method to construct approximate confidence limits for the ratio of two independent sequences of binomial variates with unequal sample sizes. Due to the nonexistence of an unbiased estimator for the ratio, we develop the procedure based on a modified maximum likelihood estimator (MLE). We generalize the results of Cho and Govindarajulu (2008) by defining the sample-ratio when sample sizes are not equal. In addition, we investigate the large-sample properties of the proposed estimator and its finite sample behavior through numerical studies, and we make comparisons from the sample information view points.
