  • The traditional AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) is to evaluate subjectively the alternatives in the view point of each of criteria and has been widely used at the fields of real world application. The AHP has some drawbacks that makes it difficult to keep the consistency of decision makers' input and take too long to get accurate results because of requiring lots of pairwise comparison between criteria and alternatives. This research is to propose and develop a Hybrid-AHP system for complementing the critical points of traditional AHP methodologies. This system gets the quantitative information as well as qualitative inputs as the comparative ones between criteria and alternatives. We use the input as various type of information such as quantitative values, 9-scale ratings, and fuzzy-based inputs. Finally, we applied the system to the case of choosing strategic industries. The case study have shown the use of various input methods saves processing time, and reduces the input burden of users.

  • This study was to identify and quantify the flavor compounds in cream cheese and cholesterol-removed cream cheese made from whole milk powder stored at $7^{\circ}C$ for 4 wk. Flavor compounds of cream cheese were identified using gas chromatography mass spectroscopy and quantified by gas chromatography. The tentatively identified flavor compounds were mainly eight from fatty acids in cream cheese made from whole milk powder (CCWMP) and nine from fatty acids in cholesterol-removed cream cheese made from whole milk powder (CRCCWMP). In quantitative analysis of the flavor compounds, most of the volatile compounds were slightly increased during storage. N-Decanoic acid was produced only in CCWMP. On the basis of the results, it was concluded that the quality and quantity of flavor compounds in CCWMP and CRCCWMP have almost no adverse effects in comparison with that of whole milk-made cream cheese.

  • In this paper we propose three nonparametric tests such as Wilcoxon test, Median test and Van der Waerden test, based on linear rank statistics for detecting edges in images. The methods used herein are based on detecting changes in gray-levels obtained using an edge-height parameter between two sub-regions in a 5$\times$5 window We compare and analysis the performance of three statistical edge detectors in terms of qualitative measures with the edge maps and objective, quantitative measures.

  • Along with advance of information technology, value of information is growing much more than ever. And nearly all organizations pay great attentions to information security to protect their own important informations against every kind of hazardous accidents. Therefore, organizations want to select best information security system among many possible alternatives. For this purpose, several fuzzy AHP decision making approaches can be utilized. In this study, we consider a number of qualitative and quantitative factors to evaluate security systems and then apply three fuzzy AHP approaches for simple case to compare the results from three approaches. We find that final decision depends on both fuzzy AHP methods and degree of fuzziness.

  • Objective : To identify the effect of intensive sensory integration therapy through 5 days camp programs for children with dyspraxia Methods : A comparison of quantitative date and qualitative description between before and after sensory integration therapy camp described adaptative response of children and individual home-based program was designed and therapist educated parents about it. Results : The problem of control and apraxia which children have was improved rather than before camp and adaptive response increased. Conclusion : Follow-up study is needed to observe and investigate the effect of continuous treatment after camp participation.

  • In this paper, we deal with the problem of modeling of agent-based robot manufacturing cell. Its role is becoming increasingly important in automated manufacturing systems. For Object Oriented & Queueing Petri Nets (OO&QPNs), an extended formalism for the combined quantitative and qualitative analysis of different systems is used for structure and performance analysis of mobile robotic cell. In the case study, the OO&QPN model of a mobile robotic cell is represented and analyzed, considering multi-class parts, non-preemptive priority and alternative routing. Finally, the comparison of performance values between Shortest Process Time (SPT) rule and First Come First Serve (FCFS) rule is suggested. In general, SPT rule is most suitable for parts that have shorter processing time than others.

  • Three-dimensional dynamic stall over an oscillating wing has been analyzed by using a compressible Navier-Stokes code. The code solved the thin-layer Navirer-Stokes equations with a second-order time accuracy for a semispan wing with 0.3048m chord, a NACA 0015 airfoil section, and zero twist Computations were made for a freestream Mach number of 0.29, a chord Reynolds number of 1.95$\times$10(sup)6 and a reduced frequency equal to 0.1. Numerical results were compared with experimental data which include the hysteresis of lift, drag and moment at various wing span. The comparison reveals the quantitative as well as qualitative nature of the three-dimensional dynamic stall.

  • This paper investigates the restoration schemes which are applied to the MPLS domain upon a network failure. We define the following three restoration service models by combining the various restoration schemes: "FIS-based protection service" (FIS: failure indication signal), "inversion traffic protection service" and "1+1 protection service". After a qualitative analysis of the performance in them, we have analyzed it on quantitative basis by the simulation. According to the simulation results, "1+1 protection service" guarantees the fastest and most lossless restoration service among them; however, it results in consuming considerable bandwidth and producing an amount of control traffic, which means poor network utilization. On the other hand, "FIS-based protection service" spends less bandwidth and generates less control traffic, which means better network utilization, but produces poor restoration service. "Inversion traffic protection service" provides the medium restoration service and utilization between "1+1 protection service" and "FIS-based protection service."

  • Recently, correlation filter based trackers have shown excellent tracking performance and computational efficiency. In order to enhance tracking performance in the correlation filter based tracker, search area which is image patch for finding target must include target. In this paper, two methods to discriminatively represent target in the search area are proposed. Firstly, search area location is estimated using pyramidal Lucas-Kanade algorithm. By estimating search area location before filtering, fast motion target can be included in the search area. Secondly, we investigate multi-channel Local Edge Pattern(LEP) which is insensitive to illumination and noise variation. Qualitative and quantitative experiments are performed with eight dataset, which includes ground truth. In comparison with method without search area estimation, our approach retain tracking for the fast motion target. Additionally, the proposed multi-channel LEP improves discriminative performance compare to existing features.
