While Korea does not have any legal statement on surrogacy, treatments are carried out in practice. As a result, every Institutional Review Board (IRB) of each fertility clinic faces an ethical predicament in reviewing each case. There is a need to arrange the institutions' own standards of surrogate pregnancy procedures before the establishment of national or professional regulation. This article examines the legal, social, and medical issues of surrogacy to help IRBs to judge their cases.

In this paper, Bayesian hypothesis testing procedures are proposed under the non-informative prior distributions, which can be thought as the Bayesian counterparts of the classical ones in the sense of using the concept of significance level. The performances of proposed procedures are compared with those of classical procedures through several examples.

A data set having missing observations is often completed by using imputed values. In this paper, performances and accuracy of five imputation procedures are evaluated when missing values exist only on the response variable in the exponential regression model. Our simulation results show that adjusted exponential regression imputation procedure can be well used to compensate for missing data, in particular, compared to other imputation procedures. An illustrative example using real data is provided.

We particularly emphasized how to determine the number of replications with sequential and multistage procedures. So, the t-test is used to achieve some predetermined level of accuracy efficiently with loss function in the case of normal, chi-squared, an exponential distributions. We provided that the relevance of procedures are sequential procedure, two-stage procedure, modified two-stage procedure, three-stage procedure and accelerated sequential procedure. Monte Carlo simulation is carried out to obtain the stopping sample size that minimizes the risk.

A dataset having missing observations is often completed by using imputed values. In this paper the performances and accuracy of complete case methods and four imputation procedures are evaluated when missing values exist only on the response variables in the Weibull regression model. Our simulation results show that compared to other imputation procedures, in particular, hotdeck and Weibull regression imputation procedure can be well used to compensate for missing data. In addition an illustrative real data is given.

In recent years, many people use R as a statistics system. R is frequently updated by many R project teams. We are interested in the method of multiple outlier detection and know that R is not supplied the method of multiple outlier detection. In this talk, we review these procedures for detecting multiple outliers and provide more efficient procedures combined with direct methods and indirect methods using R.

Optimal screening procedures for improving outgoing product quality based on correlated normal variables are presented. The performance variable and the screening variables are assumed to be jointly normally distributed. These procedures do not require specialized tables, and closed-form solutions are obtained for the case of one-sided specification. Methods for finding optimal solutions for the case of two-sided specifications are also considered.

Robustness rates for repeated measures pairwise multiple comparison procedures were investigated in a split plot design with one between- and one within-subjects factor using untrimmed and trimmed data. Five factors were manipulated in the study: distribution, sphericity, variance-covariance heteroscedasticity, total sample size, and sample size ratio. The Welsch test (W) and the Welsch test on trimmed data $(W_{RT})$ performed better than the other procedures, but had a liberal tendency. The trimmed difference score Bonferroni Procedure $(B_{DT})$ was a good choice in some conditions.

This paper describes a proposed performance criteria and evaluation procedures for transmission system planning in Korea. Performance criteria of the transmission system are expected to be used as a guideline for investment into a transmission network. Moreover, performance evaluation procedures, which are based on current practices and widely accepted theories, are suggested to achieve fair and acceptable results.

A series of procedures using image processing techniques is presented for extracting layout information fast and automatically from chip images. CIF (caltech intermediate form) is chosen for representing such information. First, line-edges are extracted using a line-edge detector. Then, thinning and noise removal procedures follow. Subsequent procedures are vertex extraction and vertex grouping. Finally, CIF is extracted from the coordinates of the grouped vertices. In this paper, the final process is applied to only metal layer. In experiments, this processing scheme is shown to be very effective in extracting CIF.
