HTS (High Temperature Superconducting) Power devices has the several useful characteristics from the technical and economical viewpoint. Possible application to the utility industry have been widely discussed in various research projects. For the successful introduction of HTS power devices into power system, establishing a proper R&D and marketing strategies through estimating the future market size are necessary. However, quantitative estimates of how well HTS power devices will serve their markets have been lacking. In this paper, we propose a estimation methodology of future market size for HTS power divices such as cable, transformer, generator, and motor, and also evaluate the future international and domestic market size by using proposed methodology.

Various geological thematic maps such as grain size or ground water level maps have been generated by interpolating sparsely sampled ground survey data. When there are sampled data at a limited number of locations, to use secondary information which is correlated to primary variable can help us to estimate the attribute values of the primary variable at unsampled locations. This paper applies two multivariate geostatistical algorithms to integrate remote sensing imagery with sparsely sampled ground survey data for spatial estimation of grain size: simple kriging with local means and kriging with an external drift. High-resolution IKONOS imagery which is well correlated with the grain size is used as secondary information. The algorithms are evaluated from a case study with grain size observations measured at 53 locations in the Baramarae beach of Anmyeondo, Korea. Cross validation based on a one-leave-out approach is used to compare the estimation performance of the two multivariate geostatistical algorithms with that of traditional ordinary kriging.

Objectives. The age-based Cole formula has been employed for the estimation of endotracheal tube (ETT) size due to its ease of use, but may not appropriately consider growth rates among children. Child growth is assessed by calculating the body surface area (BSA). The association between the outer diameter of an appropriate uncuffed-endotracheal-tube (ETT-OD) and the BSA values of patients at 24-96 months of age was our primary outcome. Methods. Cole formula, BSA, age, height, weight and ultrasound measurement of subglottic-transverse-diameter were evaluated for correlations with correct uncuffed ETT-OD. The Cole formula, BSA, and ultrasound measurements were analyzed for estimation rates in all patients and age subgroups. The maximum allowed error for the estimation of ETT-OD was ${\leq}0.3mm$. Patients' tracheas were intubated with tubes chosen by Cole formula and correct ETT-OD values were determined using leak test. ETT exchange rates were recorded. Results. One-hundred twenty-seven patients were analyzed for the determination of estimation rates. Thirteen patients aged ${\geq}72months$ were intubated with cuffed ETT-OD of 8.4 mm and were accepted to need uncuffed ETT-OD >8.4 mm in order to be included in estimation rates, but excluded from correlations for size analysis. One-hundred fourteen patients were analyzed for correlations between correct ETT-OD (determined by the leak test) and outcome parameters. Cole formula, ultrasonography, and BSA had similar correct estimation rates. All three parameters had higher underestimation rates as age increased. Conclusion. The Cole formula, BSA, and ultrasonography had similar estimation rates in patients aged ${\geq}24$ to ${\leq}96months$. BSA had a correct estimation rate of 40.2% and may not be reliable in clinical practice to predict uncuffed-ETT-size.

Purpose: As a preliminary study, the purpose of this study was to examine the indirect estimation of the lumbar intervertebral disc size by two anthropometric methods, in order to compare these indirect methods with the direct analysis by radiological imaging. Methods: The wrist, elbow, knee, and ankle joint (both right and left) diameters were measured in 52 volunteers, and then intervertebral disc size was calculated using two anthropometric methods (Colombini and modified Colombini). The data were analysed with independent t-test to assess clinical usefulness. Results: When using right and left joint diameter, there was no significant difference in the estimation value of the L4-5 and L5-S1 intervetebral disc sizes. However, the study has shown that male subjects have significantly larger L4-5 and L5-S1 intervertebral disc sizes, compared with those of female subjects. In addition, disc sizes calculated by Colombini's formula were significantly larger than modified Colombini's formula. Conclusion: The indirect estimation of the intervertebral disc size by anthropometric method can be considered as a clinically useful method. However, further study should be conducted to compare anthropometric values with other radiological imaging.

임베디드 SW는 제품 내장형 SW라는 특징으로 인해 임베디드 SW를 탑재한 제품의 시장 규모가 아닌 임베디드 SW 만의 시장을 명확히 파악한 자료는 거의 없다. 본 논문에서는 임베디드 SW만의 시장규모를 최대한 정확히 알아내기 위해 생산액 규모를 추정하는 방법을 사용하였다. 임베디드 SW 시장규모 추정에 적합한 산업분류체계를 도출하였고 이에 따른 산업 분류별 시장 규모를 추정하였다. 또한, 임베디드 SW의 산업 분류별 비중을 산출하고 최종적으로 임베디드 S/W의 시장 규모를 추정하였다. 임베디드 산업 분류별 SW의 시장 규모를 추정한 결과 산업자동화, 군사, 항공, 우주, 사무자동화 순으로 추정되었고, 임베디드 SW의 부가가치는 약 27조로 나타났다.

본 논문에서는 동영상 부호화 방식의 움직임 추정을 위한 고속 다중 참조 프레임 선택 기법에 대해 제안한다. 움직임 추정을 위해 다중 프레임을 참조하는 H.264 동영상 부호화 방식의 경우, 블록별로 선택된 최적의 참조 프레임들은 일정한 상관관계를 유지하는 특성이 존재한다. 제안 방식은 이러한 통계적 특성을 이용하여, 임의의 블록 크기의 움직임 추정 모드에서 선택된 최적의 참조 프레임 정보를 이용하여 하위 블록 크기의 움직임 추정 모드에서 사용할 참조 프레임을 예측한다. 실험 결과를 통해 5개의 참조 프레임 사용을 기준으로 제안하는 기법을 사용하였을 때, 움직임 추정에 소요되는 시간은 가용한 모든 참조 프레임에 대해 움직임 추정을 수행하는 방식 대비 평균 60% 감소되었으며, PSNR 및 발생 비트율 측면에서 거의 동일한 성능을 유지함을 확인할 수 있었다.

질의 최적화기의 중요 기능 중에 하나는 질의가 주어졌을 때 질의 조건을 만족하는 입력 레코드의 개수를 추정하는 일이다. 관계 데이터베이스와 마찬가지로 공간 데이터베이스에서 질의 결과 크기 추정은 입력 데이터 공간을 버켓으로 불리는 작은 영역으로 분할한 후 분할된 영역에 대해서 질의 결과 ■기를 추정한다. 추정의 정확도는 작은 영역으로 분할할 때 근사 계산한 데이터와 실제 데이터의 차이에 의해서 결정되며 이것은 공간 분할을 어떻게 분할하는가에 달려 있다. 기존의 방법은 일차원에 많이 사용되는 데이터의 범위를 균일하게 하는 너비 균등 방법과 빈도수의 합을 일정하게 하는 높이 균등 방법을 공간상의 이차원에 적용한 면적 균등 분할과 개수 균등 분할 방법에 기초를 두고 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법은 공간을 분할할 때 데이터의 범위와 빈도수의 곱을 면적으로 나타낸 후 면적 값의 차이가 가장 큰 순서로 버켓을 정하는 방법으로 데이터 범위와 빈도수를 동시에 고려하여 최적의 버켓을 결정한다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 방법과 기존의 방법을 실제 데이터와 인위데이터를 사용하여 질의 크기, 버켓수, 데이터 개수, 데이터 크기의 변화에 대해서 질의 결과 추정에 대한 정확도를 비교, 분석하여 제안한 방법의 성능 우수성을 확인한다.

The estimation of nugget sizes was attempted by utilizing the artificial neural networks method. Artificial neural networks is a highly simplified model of the biological nervous system. Artificial neural networks is composed of a large number of elemental processors connected like biological neurons. Although the elemental processors have only simple computation functions, because they are connected massively, they can describe any complex functional relationship between an input-output pair in an autonomous manner. The electrode head movement signal, which is a good indicator of corresponding nugget size was determined by measuring the each test specimen. The sampled electrode movement data and the corresponding nugget sizes were fed into the artificial neural networks as input-output pairs to train the networks. In the training phase for the networks, the artificial neural networks constructs a fuctional relationship between the input-output pairs autonomusly by adjusting the set of weights. In the production(estimation) phase when new inputs are sampled and presented, the artificial neural networks produces appropriate outputs(the estimates of the nugget size) based upon the transfer characteristics learned during the training mode. Experimental verification of the proposed estimation method using artificial neural networks was done by actual destructive testing of welds. The predicted result by the artifficial neural networks were found to be in a good agreement with the actual nugget size. The results are quite promising in that the real-time estimation of the invisible nugget size can be achieved by analyzing the process variable without any conventional destructive testing of welds.

In this paper, the TTSE (Target size and Triangulation-based target Size Estimator) algorithm is proposed to estimate static target size in an imaging environment. The target size information is an important factor for accurate imaging target tracking. However, the imaging sensor cannot generate distance between the missile and target to calculate the target size. To overcome the problem, we propose the TTSE algorithm, which is based on target size and triangulation. The proposed method performance is tested in a target intercept scenario. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance than the conventional algorithm (ET-TSE) for accurate CCD target size estimation.
