Q estimates are made by direct measurements of energy loss per cycle from primary P and S waves, as a function of frequency. Assuming that intrinsic Q is frequency independent and scattering Q is frequency dependent over the frequencies of interest, the relative contributions of each, to a total observed Q, may be estimated. Test examples are produced by computing viscoelastic synthetic seismograms using a pseudo spectral solution with inclusion of relaxation mechanisms (for intrinsic Q) and a fractal distribution of scatterers (for scattering Q). The composite theory implies that when the total Q for S-waves is smaller than that for P-waves (the usual situation), intrinsic Q is dominating; when it is larger, scattering Q is dominating. In the inverse problem, performed by a global least squares search, intrinsic $Q_p$ and $Q_s$ estimates are reliable and unique when their absolute values are sufficiently low that their effects are measurable in the data. Large $Q_p$ and $Q_s$ have no measurable effect and hence are not resolvable. Standard deviation of velocity $({\sigma})$ and scatterer size (A) are less unique as they exhibit a tradeoff as predicted by Blair's equation. For the P-waves, intrinsic and scattering contributions are of approximately the same importance, for S-waves, the intrinsic contributions dominate.

An experimental method to measure Q-parameter in-situ is described. The basic idea comes from the fact that the side necking near a crack tip indicates the loss of stress triaxiality, which can be scaled by Q. From the out-of-plane displacement and the in-plane strain near the surface of side necking, stress field averaged through the thickness is calculated and then Q is determined from the difference between the stress field and the HRR field corresponding to the identical J-integral. To prove the validity, three-dimensional finite element analysis has been performed for a CT configuration with side-groove. Q-value which was calculated directly from the near-tip stress field is compared with that determined by simulating the experimental procedure according to the proposed method, that is, the Q-value determined from the lateral displacement and the inplane strain. Also, the effect of location where the displacement and strain are measured is explored.

In the present paper, we analyse analytic continuation of weighted $q$-Genocchi numbers and polynomials. A novel formula for weighted $q$-Genocchi-zeta function $\tilde{\zeta}_{G,q}(s{\mid}{\alpha})$ in terms of nested series of $\tilde{\zeta}_{G,q}(n{\mid}{\alpha})$ is derived. Moreover, we introduce a novel concept of dynamics of the zeros of analytically continued weighted $q$-Genocchi polynomials.

To increase the level of $CoQ_{10}$ production in mass culture, the effects of pH and light irradiation on $CoQ_{10}$ production by Rhodobacter sphaeroides were investigated in a 1-L bioreactor. $CoQ_{10}$ production was growth-associated, and the highest production of $CoQ_{10}$ (1.69 mg/g dry cell) was obtained under uncontrolled pH: this production was 1.7 times higher than that obtained at controlled pH 7. Therefore, pH was a key factor affecting $CoQ_{10}$ production. The effect of light irradiation on $CoQ_{10}$ production was negligible. This result offers an advantage for mass production of $CoQ_{10}$.

The commuting graph of an arbitrary ring R, denoted by ${\Gamma}(R)$, is a graph whose vertices are all non-central elements of R, and two distinct vertices a and b are adjacent if and only if ab = ba. In this paper, we investigate the connectivity, the diameter, the maximum degree and the minimum degree of the commuting graph of group ring $Z_nQ_8$. The main result is that $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$ is connected if and only if n is not a prime. If $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$ is connected, then diam($Z_nQ_8$)= 3, while $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$ is disconnected then every connected component of $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$ must be a complete graph with a same size. Further, we obtain the degree of every vertex in $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$, the maximum degree and the minimum degree of $\Gamma(Z_nQ_8)$.

Radiologist image perceived by radiology students plays important role for them in establishing a positive Radiology professionalism as well as having a satisfaction on their job. Thus, this study was conducted to examine the image of Radiologist perceived by both radiology students. Q-methodology was used for this study. 110 Q statements were extracted from qualitative survey from 110 radiology students. The selected statements were reviewed and revised by experts and 33 Q samples were finally selected. Then, 30 radiology students were recruited for this study and were asked to arrange the statement cards on a 9 point scale, which shaped a normal distribution. The data were then analyzed by using PQ method program. As a result, two types of Radiologist's images were explored: 'professional technology type', 'safety of patient type' The results of this study will be helpful to provide the direction that we have to pursue regarding educational and political perspectives.

In this paper, we present the area-based Q-learning to search a target object using multiple robot. To search the target in Markovian space, the robots should recognize their surrounding at where they are located and generate some rules to act upon by themselves. Under area-based Q-learning, a robot, first of all, obtains 6-distances from itself to environment by infrared sensor which are hexagonally allocated around itself. Second, it calculates 6-areas with those distances then take an action, i.e., turn and move toward where the widest space will be guaranteed. After the action is taken, the value of Q will be updated by relative formula at the state. We set up an experimental environment with five small mobile robots, obstacles, and a target object, and tried to search for a target object while navigating in a unknown hallway where some obstacles were placed. In the end of this paper, we presents the results of three algorithms - a random search, area-based action making (ABAM), and hexagonal area-based Q-teaming.

The Q-learning algorithm based on reinforcement learning is useful for learning the goal for one behavior at a time, using a combination of discrete states and actions. In order to learn multiple actions, applying a behavior-based architecture and using an appropriate behavior adjustment method can make a robot perform fast and reliable actions. Q-learning is a popular reinforcement learning method, and is used much for robot learning for its characteristics which are simple, convergent and little affected by the training environment (off-policy). In this paper, Q-learning algorithm is applied to a lamp robot to learn multiple behaviors (human recognition, desk object recognition). As the learning rate of Q-learning may affect the performance of the robot at the learning stage of multiple behaviors, we present the optimal multiple behaviors learning model by changing learning rate.

This study was conducted to examine the reliability and validity of the internet (IOS-Q), Game (GOS-Q), and Smartphone (SOS-Q) Overuse Screening Questionnaires in a large community sample of adolescents. To achieve this goal, data from 9,336 middle school students (male: 4,796, female: 4,540) was divided into two groups and analyzed by conducting confirmatory factor analysis and exploratory factor analysis, respectively. We conducted another confirmatory factor analysis on a separate sample of data from 4,536 elementary school students (male: 2,260 male, female: 2,276) and 6,551 middle school students (male: 3,013, female: 3,538) from other populations. As a result of factor analysis, IOS-Q was consisted of 17 items, GOS-Q was consisted of 19 items, and SOS-Q was consisted of 18 items. The IOS-Q and GOS-Q factors were psychological dependence, failure to control use despite recognizing problems, dangerous use, and reduced interest in other areas while the SOS-Q factors were dangerous and obsessive use, failure to control use despite recognizing problems, reduced interest in other areas, and withdrawal/tolerance. Each factor reflected the major facets of behavioral addiction or impulse control disorder, and the questionnaires had good internal consistencies of .880-.915. Latent profile and ROC analyses were conducted to determine cutoff points for screening high-risk groups. Lastly, theoretical and practical implications as well as the limitations of this study were discussed.
