The objective of this study was to develop a new technique to control crown form of Hiscus syriacus to be used for an upright street tree with a single stem. Fertilization and raising the clear-bole length were the main treatments to compare the diameter and height growth of this species. The trees maintained with clear-bole length of 100, 150, and 200cm showed diameter growth of 15.7. 13.8, and 10.8mm, respectively, indicating the reduced diameter growth of trees with increasing clear-bole length, which is known as a typical characteristics in tending trees in silviculture. The effects of fertilization was not shown in this study. At the end of the two-year study from 1999 to 2,000, optimum diameter growth was obtained with the treatments of clear-bole length of 80-120cm, or 121-150cm. It is concluded that height and clear-bole length should be considered first in raising Hibiscus syriacus for street trees. Further study may be needed to obtain the effects of fertilization and raising the clear-bole length on uprightness of this species.

This study was to analyze the inquiry characteristics of preservice teachers as they classify trilobites. For the study, 70 preservice teachers attending teacher training university participated. The classification tasks used in the study were 9 photos of trilobite fossils. The preservice teachers' inquiry activity was to classify the evolutionary processes of trilobites after observing trilobite fossils by group and then to construct a phylogenetic tree. The results of the study are as follows. First, preservice teachers observed the external features of the trilobites and constructed systematic classification results based on their observed contents. Second, preservice teachers classified trilobites using various classification criteria. Third, the phylogenetic tree of preservice teachers and the phylogenetic tree of scientists were very similar. The preservice teachers constructed a sphylogenetic tree based on the observation and inference of the change from a simple form to a complex form, which is a general evolution process of the trilobite fossil claimed by scientists. These results suggest that group-based inquiry activities with sufficient time are very effective and that the experience of inquiry activities is very important for preservice teachers.

The boundary evaluation technique for Boolean operation on non-manifold models which is regarded as the most popular and powerful method to create and modify 3-D CAD models has been developed. This technique adopted the concept of Merge and Selection in which the CSG tree for Boolean operation can be edited quickly and easily. In this method, the merged set which contains complete information about primitive models involved is created by merging primitives one by one, then the alive entities are selected following the given CSG tree. This technique can support the hybrid representation of B-rep(Boundary Representation) and CSG(Constructive Solid Geometry) tree in a unified non-manifold model data structure, and expected to be used as a basic method for many modeling problems such as data representation of form features, and the interference between them, and data representation of conceptual models in design process, etc.

A new design scheme of a binary decision tree is proposed. In this scheme a binary decision tree is constructed by using genetic algorithm and FCM algorithm. At each node optimal or near-optimal feature subset is selected which optimizes fitness function in genetic algorithm. The fitness function is inversely proportional to classification error, balance between cluster, number of feature used. The binary strings in genetic algorithm determine the feature subset and classification results - error, balance - form fuzzy partition matrix affect reproduction of next genratin. The proposed design scheme is applied to the tire tread patterns and handwriteen alphabetic characters. Experimental results show the usefulness of the proposed scheme.

In this paper, we propose a phoneme duration modeling in a speech recognition system based on disicion tree state tying. We assume that phone duration has a Gamma distribution. In a training mode, we model mean and variance of each state duration in context-independent phone model based on decision tree state tying. In a recognition mode, we get mean and variance of each context-dependent phone duration form state duration information obtaind during training mode. We make a comparative study of the proposed meth with conventinal methods. Our method results in good performance compared with conventional methods.

This study is to investigate the adhesive strength of composite material's interface on the experimental methode of tree growth in the material. The results are as fellows 1) The irradiations of ultrasonic energy cause the mechanical vibration in the polymer composite materials of fluid state, so then bring about physical dispersion and heat form inorganic materials, being supposed to produce chemical crosslinking reaction, decreasing of voids between filler and matrix. 2) The characterics of the breakdown are increased by using coupling agent in the composite material. 3) As the intensity of ultrasonic energy and its irradiated time are larger, the tree inception and break-down voltages increase and the tree growing is slower. so we obtain that the interface adhesive force tan be strengthened by the irradiation of ultrasonic energy.

Both the neural network classifier utilizing multi-layer perceptron and the linear tree classifier composed of hierarchically structured linear discriminating functions can form arbitrarily complex decision boundaries in the feature space and have very similar decision making processes. In this paper, a new method for automatically choosing the number of neurons in the hidden layers and for initalzing the connection weights between the layres and its supporting theory are presented by mapping the sequential structure of the linear tree classifier to the parallel structure of the neural networks having one or two hidden layers. Experimental results on the real data obtained from the military ship images show that this method is effective, and that three exists no siginificant difference in the classification acuracy of both classifiers.

This study proposes lighting simulation approach to assess lighting quality on motor ways and walk ways considering each type of form and growth of roadside trees. Simulation approach to assess quality of lighting is frequently used for lighting design which guarantees secure of drivers and pedestrians during the night time. But, road side trees which have diverse benefits for citizens acts on obstacles during night time needs lighting. The results of this study shows a possible way for tuning the aims of both lighting and road side tree. It will be possible to develop harmonic design standards for road way lighting if further study achieved based on the result of this study.

In this paper, the recognition method of Hangout patterns with the partial separation for the subpatterns is proposed. First, Hangout patterns are formalized into six formal patterns and their surface structures are discriminated. Second, two to four subpatterns from one form pattern are separated by the new algorithm combined with Index mark and Window. Hangout patterns are recognized with only frontiers of the tree by defining the regular U-tree grammar for the separated subpatterns. Compared with the previous tree grammar , this grammar reduces the production rules to 1/3 and simplifies automaton processing and has more flexiblity. By the simulation result for 1,600 characters of Hangeul patterns, separation rate of subpatterns (24 or 44) is obtained 99.1% and recognition rate is obtained 100 %.

Expectation and interest about e-CRM are rising for more efficient customer management in on-line including electronic commerce. The decision-making tree can be used usefully as the data mining technology for e-CRM. In this paper, the representative decision making techniques, CART, C4.5, CHAID analyzed the differences in personalization point of view with actuality customer data through an experiment. With these analysis data, it is proposed a new decision-making tree system that has big advantage in personalization techniques. Through new system, it can get following advantage. First, it can form superior model more qualitatively in personalization by adding individual's weight value. Second it can supply information personalized more to customer. Third, it can have high position about customer's loyalty than other site of similar types of business. Fourth, it can reduce expense that cost marketing and decision-making. Fifth, it becomes possible that know that customer through smooth communication with customer who use personalized service wants and make from goods or service's quality to more worth thing.
