Chord length sampling method in Monte Carlo simulations is a method used to model spherical particles with random sampling technique in a stochastic media. It has received attention due to the high calculation efficiency as well as user convenience; however, a technical issue regarding boundary effect has been noted. In this study, after analyzing the distribution characteristics of spherical particles using an explicit method, an alternative chord length sampling method is proposed. In addition, for modeling in finite media, a correction method of the boundary effect is proposed. Using the proposed method, sample probability distributions and relative errors were estimated and compared with those calculated by the explicit method. The results show that the reconstruction ability and modeling accuracy of the particle probability distribution with the proposed method were considerably high. Also, from the local packing fraction results, the proposed method can successfully solve the boundary effect problem. It is expected that the proposed method can contribute to the increasing of the modeling accuracy in stochastic media.

본 논문은 대역통과 샘플링(bandpass sampling)이론을 사용하여 N개 RF 신호를 하나의 통신기기에서 직접 하향변환(down-conversion)할 때 요구되는 유효 샘플링 주파수 영역(valid sampling frequency range) 및 최소 샘플링 주파수를 찾는 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방식은 기존의 방식보다 효율적이며 복잡성이 낮은 방식을 새롭게 고안하여 N개의 신호에 대하여 수식을 유도하고 일반화 하였으며 컴퓨터 모의실험(simulation)을 통해 이 수식들을 증명하였다. 그리고 제안한 알고리즘은 샘플링 주파수를 결정할 때 인접 IF 신호간의 보호대역(guard-band)이 고려되어 실제적인 하드웨어 설계 측면에 도움이 되도록 하였다. 또한 기존의 방식과의 비교를 통해 그 복잡성(complexity) 및 정확성에서도 우수한 성능을 보여주었다.

출구조사에서 투표소 추출방법은 출구조사의 정확성을 결정하는 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 대표구 추출법을 대신할 수 있는 정렬계통추출법을 제안하고 그 활용 가능성 및 효율성을 분석한다. 아울러 제시된 정렬계통추출법을 사용하는 경우 추정량의 표본추출오차(sampling error)가 어느 정도 되며, 원하는 목표 오차를 만족하기 위한 표본크기를 결정하는 문제를 고려한다. 2004년 17대 총선 개표자료를 토대로 경험적인 분석을 통해 제시된 정렬계통추출법이 기존의 대표구 추출법에 비해 평균예측오차 관점에서 효율적이라는 사실을 규명하고, 기존의 출구조사에서 표본크기 및 추정오차를 해석하는 과정에서 발생하는 오류를 집락효과를 이용해 설명했다. 아울러 제안한 정렬추출법에서 얻어지는 추정량의 분산을 구하고, 설계효과 개념을 이용해 표본크기 결정문제를 다루었다.

An effective sampling method is necessary to monitor potato tuber moths (Phthorimaea operculella) because they are the biggest concern in potato-cultivating areas. In this study, a sequential sampling method was developed based on the results of field surveys of potato tuber moths in South Korea. Potato tuber moths were collected in fields cultivating potatoes at six sites, and their spatial distribution was investigated using the Taylor power law. The optimal sampling size and cumulative number of potato tuber moths in traps to stop sampling were determined based on the spatial distribution pattern and mean density of the collected potato tuber moths. Finally, the developed sampling method was applied to propose a control action, and its sampling efficiency was compared with that of the traditional sampling method using a binomial distribution. The potato tuber moths tended to aggregate; the optimal number was approximately 5 - 16 traps for sampling, and the number varied with the mean density of potato tuber moths according to the sampling sites. In addition, one, two, and three sites might require the following actions: Continued sampling, control, and no control, respectively. Sampling with the binomial distribution showed the minimum sample size was 12 when considering the economic threshold level. Here, we propose an effective sampling method that can be applied for future monitoring and field surveys of potato tuber moths in South Korea.

The objective of this study was to develop a simple, less time-consuming and accurate sampling technique based on solid-phase sorption with activated carbon as the sorbents. The results from solid-phase sorption techniques were compared to that from a conventional solvent impinger-based technique to confirm the efficacy of the proposed method. The laboratory results indicated that the solid-phase sorption method was suitable for the determination of siloxanes as the measured concentrations were similar to that from a solvent impinge method. The data from solid-phase sorption method showed excellent recovery and reproducibility while the sampling was less labor intensive and less time consuming than the solvent impinge method. Following the laboratory tests, the solid-phase sorption technique was successfully applied to sampling biogas from a field site. This study shows that the activated carbon-based solid-phase sorption can be a reliable and less time-consuming option for the sampling and collection of siloxanes under various different landfill conditions.

In this paper, we propose a novel image clustering method based on weighted sub-sampling to reduce clustering time and the number of clusters for target detection and tracking. Our proposed method first obtain sub-sampling image with specific weights which is the number of target pixels in sampling region. After performing clustering procedure, the cluster center position is properly obtained using weights of target pixels in the cluster. Therefore, our proposed method can not only reduce clustering time, but also obtain proper cluster center.

Foreground/background segmentation in video sequences is often one of the first tasks in machine vision applications, making it a critical part of the system. In this paper, we present an improved sample-based technique that provides robust background image as well as segmentation mask. The conventional multiple interval sampling (MIS) algorithm have suffer from the unbalance of computation time per frame and the rapid change of confidence factor of background pixel. To balance the computation amount, a random-based pixel update scheme is proposed and a spatial and temporal smoothing technique is adopted to increase reliability of the confidence factor. The proposed method allows the sampling queue to have more dispersed data in time and space, and provides more continuous and reliable confidence factor. Experimental results revealed that our method works well to estimate stable background image and the foreground mask.

프랙탈 이론은 원격센서로부터 취득한 수치표고모델이나 이미지의 복잡성을 계량화하기 위하여 광범위하게 사용되어 왔다. 프랙탈은 컴퓨터 그래픽, 공학, 지질학을 포함한 다양한 분야에서 성공적으로 응용되어 왔지만, 프랙탈 추정자들의 성능은 데이터 샘플링에 따라 달라진다. 본 논문에서는 삼각프리즘법과 새로운 샘플링법을 기반으로 프랙탈 차원을 추정하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 샘플링 방법은 기존의 기하학적 스텝법과 제수 스텝법의 스텝크기 합집합 중 픽셀 활용률이 문턱값(threshold value) 이상인 스텝크기만을 취해 샘플링하며, 이를 통해 픽셀 활용률을 높여 성능을 개선한다. 또한 기존의 추정법들이 $N{\times}N$ 윈도우를 기반으로 하는데 반해 제안된 방법은 $N{\times}M$ 윈도우에 확대 적용할 수 있도록 하였다. 제안한 방법은 프랙탈 수치표고모델, Brodatz의 이미지 DB와 캠퍼스에서 촬영한 이미지에 적용하여 그 효용성을 살핀다.

This paper presents comparative studies of reliability analysis and meta-modeling using the sampling method of Monte Carlo simulation for the structure design of an automatic ocean salt collector (AOSC). The thickness sizing variables of structure members are considered as random variables. Probabilistic performance functions are selected from strength performances evaluated via the finite element analysis of an AOSC. The sampling methods used in the comparative studies are simple random sampling and Sobol sequences with varied numbers of sampling. Approximation methods such as the Kriging model is applied to the meta-model generation. Reliability performances such as the probability failure and distribution are compared based on the variation of the sampling method of Monte Carlo simulation. The meta-modeling accuracy is evaluated for the Kriging model generated from the Monte Carlo simulation and Sobol sequence results. It is discovered that the Sobol sequence method is applicable to not only to the reliability analysis for the structural design of marine equipment such as the AOSC, but also to Kriging meta-modeling owing to its high numerical efficiency.

출구조사에서 투표소 표집방법으로는 지금까지 판단표집의 일종인 대표구 추출방법과 층화 대표구의 두 가지 방법이 주로 사용되고 있지만 아직 어느 방법이 더 효과적인가에 대해서 체계적인 연구가 이어지지 않았다. 본 연구는 지금까지 논의되어 온 네가지 투표소 추출방법 중에서 어느 방법을 사용할 때 오차가 가장 적을것인지 그리고 어느 정도의 투표소를 추출하는 것이 적절한지에 대해서 분석해 보았다. 17대 총선에서 1위와 2위간의 격차가 8% 이내로 경합을 보인 50개 선거구를 대상으로 투표소 추출방법과 추출규모를 달리했을 때 예측오차가 어떻게 달라지는가를 분석한 결과, 과거 선거결과를 토대로 투표소를 정치성향별로 정렬한 후 체계적으로 추출하는 '종단적 체계적 추출방법'이 지금까지 주로 사용되었던 대표구 혹은 층화후 대표구 방법보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 표집규모는 9개에서 11개 정도의 투표소 추출이 적절한 것으로 나타났다.
