오염원이 집중되는 도시지역에서의 비점오염원에 대한 관리대책은 점오염원에 비하여 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 도시 지역의 비점오염원 부하량의 합리적인 조사, 비점오염물질 저감을 위한 관리기술 개발과 아울러 정책의 개발 등이 필요하며, 도시지역에서의 장기적인 비점오염물질 유출에 관한 모니터링을 통한 비점오염물질 원단위 조사가 절실히 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 상업 및 위락시설지역의 비점오염원 유출특성을 분석하기 위해 2008년 4월부터 2009년 10월까지 실측에 의해 측정된 강우량과 유출량 자료를 이용하여 비점오염원 유출특성을 분석하였다. 또한 본 연구에서는 자기 조직화 특성지도(Self-Organizing Feature Map: SOFM) 이론을 적용하여 측정된 유출 및 수질자료에 대해 패턴분류를 수행하여 분할구역별 자료의 특성분석을 통해 초기강우 특성이 구분되어짐을 확인 할 수 있었다. 그러나 현재 축적된 자료에 대한 양적인 한계로 인해 명확한 구분이 이루어지지 않는 항목도 있었으나, 향후 지속적인 모니터링을 통해 충분한 자료가 축적될 경우 초기강우 기준을 위한 새로운 접근방법으로 제시될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposes a computationally efficient algorithm for color image segmentation using self-organizing map(SOM) and grassfire algorithm. We reduce a computation time by decreasing the number of input neuron and input data which is used for learning at SOM. First converting input image to CIE $L^*u^*v^*$ color space and run the learning stage with the SOM-input neuron size is three and output neuron structure is 4by4 or 5by5. After learning, compute output value correspondent with input pixel and merge adjacent pixels which have same output value into segment using grassfire algorithm. The experimental results with various images show that proposed method lead to a good segmentation results than others.

As the degree of economic development of society increases, the maintenance issues on the existing social overhead capital becomes essential. Accordingly, the adaptation of the concept of Level of service in highway maintenance is indispensable. It is also crucial to manage and perform the service level such as road assets to provide universal services to users. In this regards, the purpose of this study is to improve the maintenance service rating model and to focus on the assessment items and weights among the improvements. Particularly, in determining weights, an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is performed based on the survey response results. After then, this study conducts unsupervised neural network models such as Self-Organizing Map (SOM) and Davies-Bouldin (DB) Index to divide proper sub-groups and determine priorities. This paper identifies similar cases by grouping the results of the responses based on the similarity of the survey responses. This can effectively support decision making in general situations where many evaluation factors need to be considered at once, resulting in reasonable policy decisions. It is the process of using advanced technology to find optimized management methods for maintenance.

The Self Creating and Organizing (SCO) is a new architecture and one of the unsupervized learning algorithm for the artificial neural network. SCO begins with only one output node which has a sufficiently wide response range, and the response ranges of all the nodes decrease automatically whether adapting the weights of existing node or creating a new node. It is compared to the Kohonen's Self Organizing Feature Map (SOFM). The results show that SCONN has lots of advantages over other competitive learning architecture.

In this paper, we propose a coding method to improve compression efficiency for MR image. This can be achieved by combining coding scheme and segmentation scheme which removes noisy background region, which is meaningless for diagnosis in the MR image. In segmentation algoritm, we use full-resolution wavelet transform to extract features of regions in image and Kohonen self-organizing map to classify the features. The subsequent wavelet coder encodes only diagnostically significant foreground regions refering to segmentation map. Our proposed algorithm provides about 15% of bit rate reduction when compared with the same coder which is not combined with segmentation scheme. And the proposed scheme shows better reconstructed image quality than JPEG at the same compression ratio.

This paper is described clustering analysis of traffic characteristics-based highway classification in order to deviate from methodologies of existing highway functional classification. This research focuses on comparing the clustering techniques performance based on the total within-group errors and deriving the optimal number of cluster. This research analyzed statistical clustering method (Hierarchical Ward's minimum-variance method, Nonhierarchical K-means method) and Kohonen self-organizing maps clustering method for highway characteristic classification. The outcomes of cluster techniques compared for the number of samples and traffic characteristics from subsets derived by the optimal number of cluster. As a comprehensive result, the k-means method is superior result to other methods less than 12. For a cluster of more than 20, Kohonen self-organizing maps is the best result in the cluster method. The main contribution of this research is expected to use important the basic road attribution information that produced the highway characteristic classification.

As one of the unsupervised learning neural network methods, self-organizing maps(SOM) are applied to various fields. It reduces the dimension of multidimensional data by representing observations on the low dimensional manifold. On the other hand, the minimal spanning tree(MST) of a graph that achieves the most economic subset of edges connecting all components by a single open loop. In this study, we apply the MST technique to SOM with subnodes. We propose SOM's with embedded MST and a distance measure for optimum choice of the size and shape of the map. We demonstrate the method with Fisher's Iris data and a real gene expression data. Simulated data sets are also analyzed to check the validity of the proposed method.

Previous recognition/clustering algorithms such as Kohonen SOM(Self-Organizing Map), MLP(Multi-Layer Percecptron) and SVM(Support Vector Machine) might not adapt to unexpected input pattern. And it's recognition rate depends highly on the complexity of own training patterns. We could make up for and improve the weak points with lowering complexity of original problem without losing original characteristics. There are so many ways to lower complexity of the problem, and we chose a kernel concepts as an approach to do it. In this paper, using a kernel concepts, original data are mapped to hyper-dimension space which is near infinite dimension. Therefore, transferred data into the hyper-dimension are distributed spasely rather than originally distributed so as to guarantee the rate to be risen. Estimating ratio of recognition is based on a new similarity-probing and learning method that are proposed in this paper. Using CEDAR DB which data is written in cursive letters, 0 to 9, we compare a recognition/clustering performance of kSOM that is proposed in this paper with previous SOM.

Exploring distributional patterns of multivariate data is very essential in understanding the characteristics of given data set, as well as in building plausible models for the data. For that purpose, low-dimensional visualization methods have been developed by many researchers along various directions. As one of methods, Kohonen's SOM (Self-Organizing Map) is prominent. SOM compresses the volume of the data, yields abstraction from the data and offers visual display on low-dimensional grids. Although it is proven quite effective, it has one undesirable property: SOM's display is discrete. In this study, we propose two techniques for enhancing quality of SOM's display, so that SOM's display becomes continuous. The proposed methods are demonstrated in two numerical examples.

In this paper, a optimal algorithm that can produce the FOV is proposed in terms of using the Kohonen's Self-Organizing Map(KSOM). A FOV, that stands for "Field Of View", means maximum area where a camera could be wholly seen and influences the total time of inspection of vision system. Therefore, we draw algorithm with a KSOM which aims to map an input space of N-dimensions into a one-or two-dimensional lattice of output layer neurons in order to optimize the number and location of FOV, instead of former sequentila method. Then, we show demonstratin through computer simulation using the real PCB data. PCB data.
