In this study, we present a method for efficiently aggregating network state information. It is especially useful for aggregating links that have both delay and bandwidth in an asymmetric network. Proposed method reduces the information distortion of logical link by integration process after similar measure and grouping of logical links in multi-level topology transformation to reduce the space complexity. It is applied to transform the full mesh topology whose Service Boundary Line (SBL) serves as its logical link into a spanning tree topology. Simulation results show that aggregated information accuracy and query response accuracy are higher than that of other known method.

Conventional caption extraction methods use the difference between frames or color segmentation methods from the whole image. Because these methods depend heavily on heuristics, we should have a priori knowledge of the captions to be extracted. Also they are difficult to implement. In this paper, we propose a method that uses little heuristic and simplified algorithm. We use topographical features of characters to extract the character points and use MST(Minimum Spanning Tree) to extract the candidate regions for captions. Character regions are determined by testing several conditions and verifying those candidate regions. Experimental results show that the candidate region extraction rate is 100%, and the character region extraction rate is 98.2%. And then we can see the results that caption area in complex images is well extracted.

Even networks were introduced as a class of fault-tolerant multiprocessor networks and analyzed so many useful properties and algorithms such as simple routing algorithms, maximal fault tolerance, node disjoint path. Introduced routing algorithms and node disjoint path algorithms are proven to be optimal. However, it has not been introduced to constructing scheme for edge-disjoint spanning trees in even networks. The design of edge-disjoint spanning trees is a useful scheme to analyze for measuring the efficiency of fault tolerant of interconnection network and effective broadcasting. Introduced routing algorithm or node disjoint path algorithm are for the purpose of routing or node disjoint path hence they are not applicable to constitute edge disjoint spanning tree. In this paper, we show a construction algorithm of edge-disjoint spanning trees in even network $E_d$.

In this paper, to obtain the Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) from the graph with several nodes having the same weight, I applied both Bor$\dot{u}$vka and Kruskal MST algorithms. The result came out to such a way that Kruskal MST algorithm succeeded to obtain MST, but not did the Prim MST algorithm. It is also found that an algorithm that chooses Inter-MSF MWE in the $2^{nd}$ stage of Bor$\dot{u}$vka is quite complicating. The $1^{st}$ stage of Bor$\dot{u}$vka has an advantage of obtaining Minimum Spanning Forest (MSF) with the least number of the edges, and on the other hand, Kruskal MST algorithm has an advantage of always obtaining MST though it deals with all the edges. Therefore, this paper suggests an Hybrid MST algorithm which consists of the merits of both Bor$\dot{u}$vka's $1^{st}$ stage and Kruskal MST algorithm. When applied additionally to 6 graphs, Hybrid MST algorithm has a same effect as that of Kruskal MST algorithm. Also, comparing the algorithm performance speed and capacity, Hybrid MST algorithm has shown the greatest performance Therefore, the suggested algorithm can be used as the generalized MST algorithm.

Given a connected, weighted, and undirected graph, the Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) should have minimum sum of weights, connected all vertices, and without any cycle taking place. Borůvka Algorithm is firstly suggested as an algorithm to evaluate the MST, but it is not widely used rather than Prim and Kruskal algorithms. Borůvka algorithm selects the Minimum Weight Edge (MWE) from each vertex with distinct weights in $1^{st}$ stage, and selects the MWE from each MSF (Minimum Spanning Forest) in $2^{nd}$ stage. But the cycle check and the number of MSF in $1^{st}$ stage and $2^{nd}$ stage are difficult to implication by computer program even if it is easy to verify visually. This paper suggests the generalized Borůvka Algorithm, This algorithm selects all of the same MWEs for each vertex, then checks the cycle and constructs MSF for ascending sorted MWEs. Kruskal method bring into this process. if the number of MSF greats then 1, this algorithm selects MWE from ascending sorted inter-MSF edges. The generalized Borůvka algorithm is verified its application by being applied to the 7 graphs with the many minimum weights or distinct weight edges for any vertex. As a result, the generalized Borůvka algorithm is less required for cycle verification then the Kruskal algorithm. Therefore, the generalized Borůvka algorithm is more fast to obtain MST then Kruskal algorithm.

Applying Application-Level Multicast technology (ALM) to Distributed Interactive Applications (DIAs) becomes more and more popular. Especially for DIAs embedded priority that the sender forwards data to receivers due to their respective priorities. The priority-based directed minimum spanning tree (PST) algorithm was designed for these DIAs. However, the PST has no efficient priority selection and filtering mechanism. The system will consume a tremendous amount of resource for reconstructing distribution tree and becomes unstable and unscalable. In this paper, First, We propose a novel priority-based application level multicast algorithm: Predict-and-Quantize for Priority with directed minimum Spanning Tree (PQPST), which can efficiently predict efficient priorities for the receivers and quantize the predicted priorities to build the multicast distribution tree. Second, we propose Priority Discrepancy Heuristic Mechanism (PDHM), which sets different thresholds of priority discrepancy within the priority discrepancy interval to control the distribution tree construction can efficiently decrease the repeated distribution tree construction, and we get the best heuristic priority discrepancy interval by PQPST. According to the simulation results, the PQPST and PDHM can efficiently improve the performance of the PST algorithm.

This paper suggests a method to reduce the number of performances of Kruskal and Reverse-delete algorithms. Present Kruskal and Reverse-delete algorithms verify whether the cycle occurs within the edges of the graph. For this reason, they have problems of unnecessarily performing extra algorithms from the edges, even though they've already obtained the minimum spanning tree. This paper, first of all, suggests the 1st method which reduces the no. of performances by introducing stop point criteria of algorithm, but at the same time, performs algorithms from all the edges, just like how Kruskal and Reverse-delete algorithms. Next, it suggests the 2nd method which finds the minimum spanning tree from the remaining edges after getting rid of all the unnecessary edges which are considered not to affect the minimum spanning tree. These suggested methods have an effect of terminating algorithm at least 1.4 times and at most 3.86times than Kruskal and Reverse-delete algorithms, when applied to the real graphs. We have found that the 2nd method of the Reverse-delete algorithm has the fastest speed in terminating an algorithm, among 4 algorithms which are results of the 2 suggested methods being applied to 2 algorithms.

The MST (Minimum Spanning Tree) matching algorithm had been used for searching the part accord points extracted from the gray level fingerprint image. The method, however, had some limitations. To obtain the relationship between enrolled and inputted fingerprint, the MST was used to generate the tree graph that represent the unique graph for given fingerprint data. From the graph, the accord points are estimated. However, the shape of the graph highly depends on the positions of the minutiae. If there are some pseudo minutiae caused by noise, the shape of the graph will be different In this paper, to overcome the limitations of the MST, we proposed CRM (Center of Rotation Method) algorithm that found the true part accord points. The proposed method is based on the assumption ...

본 연구는 추가제약이 있는 최소 신장나무 문제(Constrained Minimum Spanning Tree : CMST문제)에 대한 유사다항시간 알고리듬 및 근사 해법 개발에 관한 것이다. CMST문제는 NP-hard문제임이 이미 증명되었으며, 이후 이 문제에 대해서는 근사해법 개발이 주된 관심이 되어왔다 [Ravi and Goemans 96]는 다항시간 근사 해법(PTAS)을 이미 개발하였고, [Marathe et at 98]은 가능해(feasible solution)는 아니지만, 앞으로 서술할 $(1+1/\varepsilon,\;+\epsilon)$사해를 구하는 완전다항시간 근사해법 (FPTAS)을 제시하였다. 이와는 달리 [Papa. and Yan, 00]는 파레토 근사 최적해를 구하는 FPTAS를 제시하였는데, 본 연구는 이들의 연구에서 주로 의존하고 있는 행렬-나무 정리(Tree-Matrix Theorem)를 보다 일반화하여, CMST문제에 대한 유사다항시간 알고리듬과 $(1+\varepsilon,\;1+\epsilon)$근사해를 구하는 FPTAS를 제시할 것이다.

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.
