High power and energy applications of battery require a large number of batteries to be connected in series, parallel or mixed configurations. The reliability or these batteries is improved by making them tolerant to faults i.e. by bypassing the fault cells and adding new cells to compensate the voltage and current requirement. The addition or removal or cells may cause the current stress on other healthy cells. The estimation and control or this current stress is one or the technique proposed by other researchers. This study intends to identify a suitable scalable configuration which can either avoid or reduce the efforts on the estimation and control of stress current. In addition, this paper will explore the issues associated with hot-swap.

This paper introduces a real-time face swapping system that enables video influencers to swap their faces with arbitrary generated face images of their choice. The system is implemented as a Django-based server that uses a REST request to communicate with the generative model,specifically the pretrained stable diffusion model. Once generated, the generated image is displayed on the front page so that the influencer can decide whether to use the generated face or not, by clicking on the accept button on the front page. If they choose to use it, both their face and the generated face are sent to the landmark extraction module to extract the landmarks, which are then used to swap the faces. To minimize the fluctuation of landmarks over time that can cause instability or jitter in the output, a temporal filtering step is added. Furthermore, to increase the processing speed the system works on a reduced set of the extracted landmarks.

This paper investigates the arbitrage effect by the covered interest parity (CIP) deviation, as well as other push or pull factor effect on capital inflows and ouflows in the Korean bond market, by utilizing OLS, TSLS, IRF and VDC in EC model. The sample period covers February 2002 to December 2020. It is found that, the swap basis reflecting the CIP deviations have the significant effects on both debt investment inflows and debt investment outflows. Also, it is found that, the Korean risk factors have decreasing effects on foreigner's investment in the Korean bonds, while the global risk factors have decreasing effects on Korean resident's investment in the foreign bonds.

본 연구에서는 하수재이용에 따른 논에서의 토양염분 변화를 추정하기 위하여 경기도 화성시 수원환경사업소 인근에 위치한 병점지구를 대상으로 수문순환과 작물성장과의 관계를 고려한 SWAP (Soil-Water-Atmosphere-Plant) 모형을 이용하여 평가하였다. 실험에 사용한 관개용수는 지하수 (TR#1), 하수처리장 방류수+여과+UV (TR#3)로 분류하여 모형에 사용하였다. 유입관개수의 EC (Electrical Conductivity)는 지하수 관개수인 TR#1이 다른 처리구에 비해 작았고, TR#3의 경우 0.442~0.698 dS $m^{-1}$의 범위를 보였다. 모형의 보정과 검정을 위해서 대상지구에 FDR (Frequency Domain Reflection)을 설치하여 토양수분함유량과 염분농도를 토심에 따라 일단위로 모니터링 하였다. 토심 (50, 100, 140 cm)에 따른 토양함수량의 RMSE는 검정기간 중 TR#1에서 0.003~0.064 $cm^3\;cm^{-3}$, TR#3에서 0.001 $cm^3\;cm^{-3}$ 범위를 보여 주었고, 토양염분의 보정기간 중 토심별 RMSE는 TR#1에서 0.018~0.037 dS $m^{-1}$, TR#3에서 0.004~0.014 dS $m^{-1}$ 범위를 보여 적용성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 토양내의 염분수지 분석 결과, 토양에서의 염분저장량이 (-)로 나타나 토양내로 침출되는 것으로 나타났으며, WMRI (Water Management Response Indicators)을 이용한 분석 결과, 높은 침투능으로 인하여 토양에서의 염분 집적 영향은 낮은 것으로 평가되었다.

On modern operating systems such as Linux, virtual memory is a general way to provide a large address space to applications by using main memory and storage devices. Recently, storage devices have been improved in terms of latency and bandwidth, and it is expected that applications with large memory show high-performance if next-generation storage devices are considered. However, due to the overhead of virtual memory subsystem, the paging system can not exploit the performance of next-generation storage devices. In this study, we propose several optimization techniques to extend memory with next-generation storage devices. The techniques are to allocate block addresses of storage devices for write-back operations as well as to configure the system parameters, and we implement the techniques on Linux 3.14.3. Our evaluation through using multiple benchmarks shows that our system has 3 times (/24%) better performance on average than the baseline system in the micro(/macro)-benchmark.

This paper proposes Swap algorithm for solving Dynamic Economic Dispatch (DED) problem. The proposed algorithm initially balances total load demand $P_d$ with total generation ${\Sigma}P_i$ by deactivating a generator with the highest unit generation cost $C_i^{max}/P_i^{max}$. It then swaps generation level $P_i=P_i{\pm}{\Delta}$, (${\Delta}$=1.0, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001) for $P_i=P_i-{\Delta}$, $P_j=P_j+{\Delta}$ provided that $_{max}[F(P_i)-F(P_i-{\Delta})]$ > $_{min}[F(P_j+{\Delta})-F(P_j)]$, $i{\neq}j$. This new algorithm is applied and tested to the experimental data of Dynamic Economic Dispatch problem, demonstrating a considerable reduction in the prevalent heuristic algorithm's optimal generation cost and in the maximization of economic profit.

During the global financial turmoil in 2007-2008, deviation from the covered interest parity (CIP) between the Korean won and US dollar through the foreign exchange swap has escalated in its magnitude beyond 1,000bp in November 2008, and it still persists around 100bp level. In this paper, we examine a newly developed margin based asset pricing model using Kalman filter approach and show that the escalation of the CIP deviation is found to be significantly related to the global dollar funding illiquidity and country-specific funding conditions. Furthermore, we find evidence that the poor funding conditions (or higher margins) are driven by the general money market illiquidity and may lead to higher funding illiquidity, which suggests the reinforcing effects of the liquidity spiral. We also show that the supply of dollar liquidity and improved funding conditions help alleviate the deviations from the parity, however the persistent anomaly is found to be related to the high level of volatility in the FX swap market.

Nowadays, a capital flow and intimacy of financial system among countries have been increasing in global financial environment. So it is easily possible that the risk of some countries which are in financial crisis infects other countries in the world. A recent global financial crisis reminds countries in East Asia of advancing the financial cooperation as well as financial integration. Countries in East Asia agreed with the Chiang Mai Initiative to prevent a recurrence of financial crisis in East Asia. A bilateral swap arrangement of the CMI has several purposes in order to offer foreign currency liquidity against economic crisis, remove the opportunity cost of foreign exchange reserve, push ahead the financial integration, increase the export-import logistics and so on. This paper analyzes the effect of financial cooperation in East Asia on the export-import logistics with random effect estimation and fixed effect estimation. As a result, each of country in East Asia is able to increase almost 10.3% of the export-import logistics on average.

We estimated the spatio-temporally distributed soil moisture using Sentinel-1A/B SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) sensor images and soil moisture data assimilation technique in South Korea. Soil moisture data assimilation technique can extract the hydraulic parameters of soils using observed soil moisture and GA (Genetic Algorithm). The SWAP (Soil Water Atmosphere Plant) model associated with a soil moisture assimilation technique simulates the soil moisture using the soil hydraulic parameters and meteorological data as input data. The soil moisture based on Sentinel-1A/B was validated and evaluated using the pearson correlation and RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) analysis between estimated soil moisture and TDR soil moisture. The soil moisture data assimilation technique derived the soil hydraulic parameters using Sentinel-1A/B based soil moisture images, ASOS (Automated Synoptic Observing System) weather data and TRMM (Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission)/GPM (Global Precipitation Measurement) rainfall data. The derived soil hydrological parameters as the input data to SWAP were used to simulate the daily soil moisture values at the spatial domain from 2001 to 2018 using the TRMM/GPM satellite rainfall data. Overall, the simulated soil moisture estimates matched well with the TDR measurements and Sentinel-1A/B based soil moisture under various land surface conditions (bare soil, crop, forest, and urban).

This paper suggests O(m) polynomial time heuristic algorithm to obtain the solution for the driver scheduling problem, DSP, that has been classified as NP-complete problem. The proposed algorithm gets the initial assignment of n minimum number of drivers from given m schedules. Nextly, this algorithm gets the minimum total time (TC) using 5 rules of swap and insert for decrease of over times (OT) and idle times (IT). Although this algorithm is a heuristic polynomial time algorithm with O(m) time complexity rules to be find a optimal (or approximate) solution, this algorithm is equal to metaheuristic methods for the 5 experimental data. To conclude, this paper shows the DSP is not NP-complete problem but Polynomial time (P)-problem with polynomial time rules.
