In the steel structures design, beam-to-column connections are usually considered either rigid or pinned, while their actual behavior lies between these two ideal cases. This consideration has a major influence on the results of the local and the global behavior of steel structures. This influence is noticed in the case of a static analysis, and has an important effect in the case of a dynamic analysis. In fact, pinned and rigid nodes can be considered as two specific cases of a semi-rigid behavior. To study the efficiency of the classification adopted in Eurocode 3, a numerical simulation of semi-rigid nodes has been carried out using the software ANSYS. In the aim to validate this simulation, the numerical results are compared to those of an analytical approach. After that, the validated numerical simulation has been used, to evaluate the efficiency of the classification adopted by the Eurocode 3, regarding semi-rigid connections. Finally, a new method is proposed to define a more accurate evaluation about semi-rigid connections.

A parametric scheme is proposed for the numerical solution of the nonlinear Boussinesq equation. The numerical method is developed by approximating the time and the space partical derivatives by finite-difference re placements and the nonlinear term by an appropriate linearized scheme. The resulting finite-difference method is analyzed for local truncation error and stability. The results of a number of numerical experiments are given for both the single and the double-soliton wave. AMS Mathematics Subject Classification : 65J15, 47H17, 49D15.

This article introduces a unified method of choosing the most explanatory and significant multiway partitions for classification tree design and analysis. The method is derived on the impurity reduction (IR) measure of divergence, which is proposed to extend the proportional-reduction-in-error (PRE) measure in the decision-theory context. For the method derivation, the IR measure is analyzed to characterize its statistical properties which are used to consistently handle the subjects of feature formation, feature selection, and feature deletion required in the associated classification tree construction. A numerical example is considered to illustrate the proposed approach.

Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to improve image classification by the unsupervised classification techniques, the K-means. To do this, I selected a Landsat TM scene of Jeju Island, Korea and proposed two methods for PCA： unstandardized PCA (UPCA) and standardized PCA (SPCA). The estimated accuracy of the image classification of Jeju area was computed by error matrix. The error matrix was derived from three unsupervised classification methods. Error matrices indicated that classifications done on the first three principal components for UPCA and SPCA of the scene were more accurate than those done on the seven bands of TM data and that also the results of UPCA and SPCA were better than those of the raw Landsat TM data. The classification of TM data by the K-means algorithm was particularly poor at distinguishing different land covers on the island. From the classification results, we also found that the principal component based classifications had characteristics independent of the unsupervised techniques (numerical algorithms) while the TM data based classifications were very dependent upon the techniques. This means that PCA data has uniform characteristics for image classification that are less affected by choice of classification scheme. In the results, we also found that UPCA results are better than SPCA since UPCA has wider range of digital number of an image.

In this paper, we deals with automatic modulation classification capable of classifying incident signals without a priori information. The 7 key features which have good properties of sensitive with modulation types and insensitive with SNR variation are selected. The numerical simulations for classifying 9 modulation types using the these features are performed. The numerical simulations of the 4 types of modulation classifiers are performed the investigation of classification accuracy and execution time to implement the fast modulation classifier in software radio. The simulation result indicated that the execution time of DTC was best and SVC and MDC showed good classification performance. The prototype was implemented with DTC type. With the result of field trials, we confirmed the performance in the prototype was agreed with the numerical simulation result of DTC.

This paper presents compression of image sequences based on the classification of interframe difference image blocks. classification process consists of image activity classification and energy distribution classification. In the activity classification, interframe difference image blocks are classified into activity blocks and non-activity blocks using the edge detection. In the distribution classification, activity blocks are further classified into vertical blocks, horizontal blocks, and small activity blocks using the AC energy distribution features. The RBFN, trained with numerical classification results, successfully classifies difference image blocks according to image details. Image sequence compressing based on the classification of interframe difference image blocks using the RBFN shows better compression results and less training time than the classical sorting method and the MLP network.

Since the existing cave type classification has no variety but was limited to the structural, genetical and dimensional classification, we need the new cave type classification. When we analyze the theoretical background of cluster analysis, the cave type can be classified in consideration of diverse variables depending on the selection of variables to use and the usability of such classification is very high. With the practical consideration on the internal environment of cave and surrounding environment, three classifications are available; first, numerical classification by the dimension and form of cave; second, classification by the use of land out of the cave and geographic features; third, classification by the feature of location related to the surrounding areas of cave.

Gene expression data is obtained through many stages of an experiment and errors produced during the process may cause missing values. Due to the distinctness of the data so called 'small n large p', genes have to be selected for statistical analysis, like classification analysis. For this reason, imputation and gene selection are important in a microarray data analysis. In the literature, imputation, gene selection and classification analysis have been studied respectively. However, imputation, gene selection and classification analysis are sequential processing. For this aspect, we compare the performance of classification methods after imputation and gene selection methods are applied to microarray data. Numerical simulations are carried out to evaluate the classification methods that use various combinations of the imputation and gene selection methods.

This paper proposes a classification method using an amorphous Prototype to minimize classification error caused by such fixed-Prototype-based methods as Fuzzy C-Means, Nearest Neighborring Classification, FMMCNN, and Fuzzy-ART. For this method, a new fuzzy neural network is introduced, in which a convex polytope is generated or adaptively reshaped to classify the given datum into a proper group. Thus, this method contains a function to classify sequential data set. To show the validity of this method, various numerical experiments including comparison results with FMMCNN are presented

We describe a formal approach to the construction of optimal classification rule for the two-group normal classification with equal population mean problem. Based on the utility function of Bernardo, we suggest a balanced design for the classification and construct the optimal rule under the balanced design condition. The rule is characterized by a constrained minimization of total risk of misclassification, the constraint of which is constructed by the process of equation between expected utilities of the two group conditional densities. The efficacy of the suggested rule is examined through numerical studies. This indicates that, in case little is known about the relative population sizes, dramatic gains in accuracy of classification result can be achieved.
