최근에 퍼지 이론을 인공 신경망에 접목하여 개선된 성능을 보이려는 경향이 많다. Goh는 퍼지단층 퍼셉트론 알고리즘과 일반적인 델타 규칙(Generalized delta rule)에 기반한 개선된 퍼지 퍼셉트론을 제안하여 Exclusive-OR(XOR) 문제 등을 해결하였다 그러나 이 방법은 계산량의 증가와 복잡한 영상인식에 적응하기에는 어려움이 있다. 논문에서는 동적 역치조정에 의한 개선된 퍼지 단층 퍼셉트론을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 페턴인식의 벤치마크로 사용되는 XOR문제에 적용된다. 또한 영상 응용영역으로서 디지털 영상의 인식에 적용한다. 실험결과에서 항상 수렴하지는 않지만 그러나 제안된 모델은 학습시간의 개선과 높은 수렴율을 보였다.

In this paper, a carbon implant is investigated in detail from the perspectives of performance advantages and side effects for the thick n-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (n-MOSFET). Threshold voltage ($V_{th}$) adjustment using a carbon implant significantly improves the $V_{th}$ mismatch performance in a thick (3.3-V) n-MOS transistor. It has been reported that a bad mismatch occurs particularly in the case of 0.11-${\mu}m$ $V_{th}$ node technology. This paper investigates a carbon implant process as a promising candidate for the optimal $V_{th}$ roll-off curve. The carbon implant makes the $V_{th}$ roll-off curve perfectly flat, which is explained in detail. Further, the mechanism of hot carrier injection lifetime degradation by the carbon implant is investigated, and new process integration involving the addition of a nitrogen implant in the lightly doped drain process is offered as its solution. This paper presents the critical side effects, such as Isub increases and device performance shifts caused by the carbon implant and suggests an efficient method to avoid these issues.

비보호좌회전이 가능한 차선을 비보호좌회전 교통만 이용하게 되는 경우는 3가지가 있다. 이 경우에는 lane grouping 때 비보호좌회전과 직진이 같은 차선군에 포함될 수 없기 때문에 비보호좌회전을 직진과 분리하여 별도의 포화교통량과 좌회전 보정계수를 구한다. 따라서 비보호좌회전 교차로의 용량분석시 이와 같은 경우를 판별해 내기 위해서는 그 임계값(threshold)역활을 하는 비보호좌회전의 용량을 알아야 한다. 또 이 용량으로부터 비보호좌회전의 포화교통량과 보정계수를 바로 구할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 이 용량은 비보호좌회전 운영방식의 타당성을 검토하는 일차적인 기준으로 사용될 수 있다. 본 연구는 비보호좌회전의 용량에 결정적인 영향을 주는 임계차간시간과 좌회전 평균 최소 차두시간을 현장측정 자료를 이용하여 구하고, 이를 이론적인 모형에 적용시켜 비보호좌회전의 용량을 구했으며, 이로부터 이 3가지 경우에 대한 포화교통량과 좌회전 보정계수를 구하는 방법을 제시했다.

In this work, a study is presented of the static characteristics of 4H-SiC DMOSFETs obtained by adjustment of the p-base region. The structure of this MOSFET was designed by the use of a device simulator (ATLAS, Silvaco.). The static characteristics of SiC DMOSFETs such as the blocking voltages, threshold voltages, on-resistances, and figures of merit were obtained as a function of variations in p-base doping concentration from $1\;{\times}\;10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$ to $5\;{\times}\;10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$ and doping depth from $0.5\;{\mu}m$ to $1.0\;{\mu}m$. It was found that the doping concentration and the depth of P-base region have a close relation with the blocking and threshold voltages. For that reason, silicon carbide DMOSFET structures with highly intensified blocking voltages with good figures of merit can be achieved by adjustment of the p-base depth and doping concentration.

The reset operation of a CCD image sensor was improved using charge trapping of a MOS structure to realize a loe voltage driving. A DC bias generating circuit was added to the reset structure which sets reference voltage and holds the signal charge to be detected. The generated DC bias is added to the reset pulse to give an optimized voltage margin to the reset operation, and is controlled by adjustment of the threshold voltage of a MOS transistor in the circuit. By the pulse-type stress voltage applied to the gate, the electrons and holes were injected to the gate dielectrics, and the threshold voltage could be adjusted ranging from 0.2V to 5.5V, which is suitable for controlling the incomplete reset operation due to the process variation. The charges trapped in the silicon nitride lead to the positive and negative shift of the threshold voltage, and this phenomenon is explained by Poole-Frenkel conduction and Fowler-Nordheim conduction. A CCD image sensor with $492(H){\;}{\times}{\;}510(V)$ pixels adopting this structure showed complete reset operation with the driving voltage of 3.0V. The resolution chart taken with the image sensor shows no image flow to the illumination of 30 lux, even in the driving voltage of 3.0V.

화학사고의 발생을 감소시키고, 예방하기 위한 공정안전관리(PSM) 제도는 우리나라의 경우 1996년부터 시행되었다. 그러나 PSM 제출대상인 기존 21종 물질에 대한 규정량과 새로이 추가된 브롬화수소 등의 독성물질의 규정량에 대한 타당성 검토가 미흡하여 많은 문제점이 발생되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 25종의 PSM 제출대상독성물질의 규정량을 국내 외 공정안전관리제도와 관련된 규정량과 비교 검토하였다. 그리고 흡입독성, NFPA 지수 등으로 구성된 독성 유해 위험성 식을 제안하여 고위험, 중위험, 저위험의 3등급으로 독성물질을 분류하고, 규정량의 조정에 반영하였다. 본 연구결과의 규정량 개선안은 유사 공정안전관리제도의 규정량 차이로 인한 사업장의 혼란과 부담 완화 및 합리적 개선에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

In order to improve the energy efficiency of n-Epidemic routing protocol in opportunistic networks, in which a stable end-to-end forwarding path usually does not exist, a novel adjustment strategy for parameter n is proposed using learning atuomata principle. First, nodes dynamically update the average energy level of current environment while moving around. Second, nodes with lower energy level relative to their neighbors take larger n avoiding energy consumption during message replications and vice versa. Third, nodes will only replicate messages to their neighbors when the number of neighbors reaches or exceeds the threshold n. Thus the number of message transmissions is reduced and energy is conserved accordingly. The simulation results show that, n-Epidemic routing protocol with the proposed adjustment method can efficiently reduce and balance energy consumption. Furthermore, the key metric of delivery ratio is improved compared with the original n-Epidemic routing protocol. Obviously the proposed scheme prolongs the network life time because of the equilibrium of energy consumption among nodes.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to suggest a basis for setting appropriate safety goals specifically related to the threshold zone luminance in a vehicular traffic tunnel. METHODS : In the test, drivers were divided into two groups. One group consisted of all drivers (average drivers) group with an age ratio of drivers holding domestic driver's license and driver group by age to produce threshold zone luminance in the tunnel. The threshold zone luminance produced as a result was used to analyze how it affects the safety level of each driver group and provide a basis for setting an appropriate safety criterion that can be used to determine threshold zone luminance. We used test equipment, test conditions, and ananalysis of threshold zone luminance identical to that reported by ChoandJung(2014) but the values of adaptation luminance in our analys is were expanded to range from100 to $10,000cd/m^2$. RESULTS : Adaptation luminance and threshold zone luminance are found to be related by a quadratic function. The threshold zone luminance needed by older drivers to ensure a certain safety level is significantly higher than that for drivers of other age brackets when adaptation luminance increases. 56% of older drivers are at an increased risk of an accident at the same luminance for which the safety level of average drivers is 75%. The safety level that can be achieved for older drivers increases to above 60% when threshold zone luminance level is set with the goal of attaining a safety level of more than 85% for average drivers. The safety level that can be attained for average drivers is above 90% when the threshold zone luminance is high enough to ensure over 75% in the safety level of older drivers. Results of this study are applicable to highways and others whose designed speed is 100 km/h. CONCLUSIONS : Threshold zone luminance determined on the basis of drivers having average visual ability is of limited value as a performance standard for ensuring the safety of older drivers. Hence, safety level for older drivers should be considered separately from safety levels for drivers with an average ability to avoid risk. Upward adjustment of older drivers' safety level in the process of determining appropriate threshold zone luminance in a vehicular traffic tunnel may bring both tangible and intangible benefit as a result of reducing accidents. However, there is an associated dollar cost arising from installing and operating lights. As a result, the economic impact of these trade-offs should also be considered.

Objectives: Due to global warming resulting from climate change, there has been increasing interest in the relationship between temperature and mortality. These temperature-related deaths depend on diverse conditions related to a given place and person, as well as on time. This study examined changes in the impact of high temperatures on death in summer, using the effect and burden of elevated temperatures on deaths in Seoul and Daegu. Methods: A Poisson regression model was used to estimate short-term temperature effects on mortality. Temperature-related risks were divided into three time periods of equal length (1996-2000, 2001-2005, and 2006-2010). In addition, in order to compare the impact of high temperatures on deaths, this study calculated the proportion of attributable deaths to population, which simultaneously considers the threshold and the slope above the threshold. Results: The effect and burden of high temperatures on deaths is high in Daegu. However, the impact (i.e. the effect and burden) of elevated summer temperatures on deaths has declined over the past 15 years. Sensitivity analyses using alternative thresholds show the robustness of these findings. Conclusion: This study suggests that the attributable burden of high temperatures on deaths to be more plausible than relative risk or threshold for comparing the health impact of high temperatures across populations. Moreover, these results contain important implications for the development or the adjustment of present and future strategies and policies for controlling the temperature-related health burden on populations.
