Trees at farm are considered as one of the option to reduce poverty of smallholders by contributing to livelihood security and resilience to climate change. A perception based study was conducted to assess the cultural importance of tree species suitable for practicing agroforestry in randomly selected agroforestry-dominated villages in Alaknanda valley of Western Himalayas during 2015-16. Semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect primary data on the provisioning services of major agroforestry tree species in randomly surveyed 87 households. Based on cultural importance (CI) index value, the most suitable agroforestry tree species was Morus alba (3.32) followed by Celtis australis (3.22), Mangifera indica (3.01), Grewia optiva (2.79), Toona ciliata (2.22), Bauhinia variegata (2.08), Leucaena leucocephala (1.76) and Emblica officinalis (1.74). The preference of use has also been governed based on their indigenous knowledge. This study will also facilitate in evaluating the importance of provisioning services of agroforestry tree species in improving livelihood as well as facilitates smallholder's resilience to climate change in Western Himalayas.

This study shows the developing process of the risk assessment models for railway casualty accidents. To evaluate the risks of these accidents, the hazardous events and the hazardous factors were identified by the review of the accident history and engineering interpretation of the accident behavior. The frequency of each hazardous event was evaluated from the historical accident data and structured expert judgments by using the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) technique. In addition, to assess the severity of each hazardous event, the ETA (Event Tree Analysis) technique and other safety techniques were applied. The risk assessment models developed can be effectively utilized in defining the risk reduction measures in connection with the option analysis.

With the rapid change of the Web and E-transaction application, the search interface is providing more powerful search and visualization methods, while offering smoother integration of technology with task. Especially, visualization techniques for long menu-lists are applied in retrieval system with the goal of improving performance in user's ability to select one item from a long list. In order to review visualization techniques appropriate to the types of users and data set, this study compared the five visualization browsers such as the Tree-structured menu, the Table-of-contents menu, the Roll-over menu, the Click menu, and Fisheye menu. The result of general analyses shows that among the hierarchical methods, the experienced group prefers the Table-of-contents method menu, whereas the novice's group prefers the Tree-structure method menu. Among the linear methods, the two groups prefer the Roll-over menu. The Roll-over menu is most preferred among the five browsers by the two groups.

This study shows risk-based evaluation results of casualty accidents for passengers, railway staffs and MOP(Member of public) on the national railway in South Korea. To evaluate risk of these accidents, the hazardous events and the hazardous factors were identified by the review of the accident history and engineering interpretation of the accident behavior. A probability evaluation model for each hazardous event which was based on the accident appearance scenario was developed by using the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) technique. The probability for each hazardous event was evaluated from the historical data and structured expert judgment. In addition, the severity assessment model utilized by the Event Tree Analysis (ETA) technique was composed of the accident progress scenarios. And the severity for the hazardous events was estimated using fatalities and weighted injuries. The risk assessment model developed can be effectively utilized in defining the risk reduction measures in connection with the option analysis.

Computer Aided Process Planning(CAPP) has been emerged as playing a key role in Computer Integrated Manufacturing(CIM) as the most critical link to integrate CAD and CAM, and therefore much effort has been dedicated to the structure and creation of CAPP system. In this research, a modified variant CAPP system based on process planning rule base is developed, which generates process plans for parts automatically where GT code data are provided as input. In order to execute process planning, rules are constructed in the form of Decision Tree and this system has the inference engine that extracts the results of process planning on the basis of tree-structured rules which are concerned with manufacturing processes.

Purpose: One of the main reasons why mothers quit breast feeding is that the volume of breast milk is inadequate due to insufficiency in suckling. We believe suckling experience may be a factor affecting nipple confusion. So an alternative feeding method, namely cup, spoon, finger, or nasogastric tube feeding may be needed to prevent nipple confusion. The purpose of this study was to construct a predictive model for demand for alternative feeding education by nurses. Methods: A descriptive design with structured self-report questionnaires was used for this study. Data from 175 nurses working in hospitals in Busan were collected between April 1 and 15, 2009. Data were analyzed by decision tree method, one of the data mining techniques using SAS 9.1 and Enterprise Miner 4.3 program. Results: Of the nurses, 81.1% demanded alternative feeding education and 5 factors showed that most of them expressed intention to pay, desire to know about alternative feeding, age, and learning experience. From these results, the derived model is considered appropriative for explaining and predicting demand for alternative feeding education. Conclusion: This confirms that knowledge and compliance in alternative breast feeding for newborn babies should be correct and any inaccuracies or insufficient information should be supplemented.

In this paper, we propose a new indexing technique to solve various queries which have a strong good point not only database indexing schema take advantage of converting from semi-structured data to structured data but also performance is more faster than before. We represent structure information of XML document between nodes of tree that additional numbering information which can be bit-stream without modified structure of XML tree. And, We add in indexing schema searching incidental structure information in the process. In Querying schema, we recover ancestor nodes through give information of node using indexing schema in complete path query expression as well as relative path query expression. Therefore, it takes advantage of making derivative query expression with given query. In this process, we recognize that indexing and querying schema can get searched result set faster and more accurate. Because response time is become shorter by bit operating, when query occur and it just needs information of record set earch node in database.

In this study, a SOHO (Small Office Home Office) bankruptcy prediction model is proposed using Modified Bagging Predictors which is modification of traditional Bagging Predictors. There have been several studies on bankruptcy prediction for large and middle size companies. However, little studies have been done for SOHOs. In commercial banks, loan approval processes for SOHOs are usually less structured than those for large and middle size companies, and largely depend on partial information such as credit scores. In this study, we use a real SOHO loan approval data set of a Korean bank. First, decision tree induction techniques and artificial neural networks are applied to the data set, and the results are not satisfactory. Bagging Predictors which has been not previously applied for bankruptcy prediction and Modified Bagging Predictors which is proposed in this paper are applied to the data set. The experimental results show that Modified Bagging Predictors provides better performance than decision tree inductions techniques, artificial neural networks, and Bagging Predictors.
