It has gradually become important to estimate a forest stand volume utilizing LiDAR data. Recently, various statistical models including a linear regression model has been introduced to estimate a forest stand volume using LiDAR data. One of limitations of the current approaches is in that the accuracy of observed forest stand volume data, which is used as a response variable, is questionable unstable. To overcome this limitation, we consider a spatial structure for a forest stand volume. In this research, we propose a hierarchical model for applying a spatial structure to a forest stand volume. The proposed model is applied to the LiDAR data and the forest stand volume for Bonghwa, Gyeongsangbuk-do.

This study used the multistage hierarchical clustering image classification to analyze the satellite images for the land-cover types of an area in the Korean peninsula. The multistage algorithm consists of two stages. The first stage performs region-growing segmentation by employing a hierarchical clustering procedure with the restriction that pixels in a cluster must be spatially contiguous, and finally the whole image space is segmented into sub-regions where adjacent regions have different physical properties. Without spatial constraints for merging, the second stage clusters the segments resulting from the previous stage. The image classification of hierarchical clustering, which merges step-by step two small groups into one large one based on the hierarchical structure of digital imagery, generates a hierarchical tree of the relation between the classified regions. The experimental results show that the hierarchical tree has the detailed information on the hierarchical structure of land-use and more detailed spectral information is required for the correct analysis of land-cover types.

Multi-dimensional data play a crucial role in various fields, as like computer graphics, geographical information system, and multimedia applications. Indexing method fur multi-dimensional data Is a very Important factor in overall system performance. What is proposed in this paper is a new dynamic access method for spatial objects called HL-CIF(Hierarchically Layered Caltech Intermediate Form) tree which requires small amount of storage space and facilitates efficient query processing. HL-CIF tree is a combination of hierarchical management of spatial objects and CIF tree in which spatial objects and sub-regions are associated with representative points. HL-CIF tree adopts "centroid" of spatial objects as the representative point. By reflecting objects′sizes and positions in its structure, HL-CIF tree guarantees the high spatial locality of objects grouped in a sub-region rendering query processing more efficient.

As demands and applications of spatial information increase, different aspects of quality management have been raised as an important issue. This study suggests a quality management method for consumer-oriented spatial information, providing the consumer satisfaction. As opposed to the demands mentioned, less attention has been paid on the quality for the spatial information. So far, most of spatial information producers have kept their own independent quality management system and standard. Because of this unconscious response, it has been difficult to reflect the consumer's various and flexible demands from the silo structure of the quality management systems and regulations. The explosive increase of spatial information products creates quality-related problems such as limited time and budget for the consumer-oriented quality management. To solve these problems this study suggests to use a minimum number of the basic spatial information products which can guarantee better qualities when other products are combined. Because each of the spatial information product can include several other sub-products inside, it can have intrinsic characteristics such as geographic accuracy relationships between the products when combined and a hierarchical structure in each product in terms of the quality management mentioned. To prove the usability of the model, a case of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure Center is used because the Center collects and distributes an enormous amount of spatial information to the public and private sector.

본 연구에서는 공간 검색 통계량(spatial scan statistics)과 에셜론 해석법을 이용한 범주형 자료분석을 다룬다. 이를 위해 우선, 에셜론 덴드로그램을 이용하여 주어진 분활표의 계층적 구조(hierarchical structure)를 결정하고서 이로부터 핫스팟(hotspot)의 후보를 검출한다. 다음으로 우도비(likelihood ratio)를 기초로 유의하게 높거나 낮게 나타나는 지역에 대한 공간 검색 통계량을 산출한다. 마지막으로, 이 통계량을 바탕으로 핫스팟을 검출한다.

I construct a chaotically driven contraction system having some analogy with the information transfer mechanism in the brain system especially from CA1 cell to CA3 cell known from the empirical result. And I consider the properties of the response system on a state space according to the external input into the drive neuron by observing the fractal hierarchical structure. Then I induce the relation between the information about state transition of the chaotic time series and the spatial information on a fractal attractor to confirm the possibility of encoding of time series data to spatial information.

A Grid Database is a database management system to process effectively and use the distributed data in a grid computing environment. Spatial data is more important than other general data according to the local characteristics and requires a large storage. The grid database can be used as the optimal system for the management of the spatial data. However, contrary to the conventional distributed database systems, the Grid Database which guarantees the local autonomy has a possibility not to provide an effective system, or it is impossible to use a centralized management environment. In order to allow flexible responses to a dynamically changing environment, it is required to use effectively reorganized method. In this paper, hierarchical reorganization method is presented for dynamic reorganization in a grid database. When the reorganization is conducted, an organizer is created to collect the information of databases. In addition, the organizer which is constructed by the hierarchical structure supports information communication and reorganization, and then it allows the support of regional reorganization operation and effective balance control. The performance assessment of the proposed method shows that the processing capacity is increased after the reorganization.

The purpose of this study is to establish the theory of the spatial composition that is 'The Structure of Relation' in Korean traditional houses. This study has been focused on the spatial composition of Hyangdan. The form composition is an element defining primitive functions and space and producing aesthetical effects, where 'quality as a substance' is not important but 'quality as a relation' is essential. Quality as a meaningful relationship comes from realization and regulation of visual attributes among form elements. Each form compositional element establishes the hierarchical structure logically with the entire order, In order for the quality of all form compositional elements to be clarified as a meaningful relationship logically, 'compositional concept' which combines a series of form elements into the grammatical dependence to a specific direction, has to be assumed. If the intrinsic relationship among a series of form compositional elements fails to confront with the 'contextual concept' which eventually indicates unique conditions for a place according to the refined compositional concept, the result of form composition never leads to a specific solution

This paper presents a new electromyogram (EMG) pattern recognition method based on the Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) algorithm which is originally devised for image pattern recognition. In the modified HTM algorithm, a simplified two-level structure with spatial pooler, temporal pooler, and supervised mapper is proposed for efficient learning and classification of the EMG signals. To enhance the recognition performance, the category information is utilized not only in the supervised mapper but also in the temporal pooler. The experimental results show that the ten kinds of hand motion are successfully recognized.
