Under contamination, Bahadur representations with a strong remainder term are derived for random central order statistics with a prescribed limiting rank, and asymptotic normalities for these statistics of truncated and contaminated data are proved, with a suitable limiting rank. From these results, an application to the fixed-width confidence interval problem is available.

Very few studies on orthotropic circular disks or rings under diametrical loadings are conducted because of difficulties in treatment. This paper shows analytical solutions and gives the distributions of stresses and displacements by using Lekhnitskii's complex variable method. Several numerical results are shown by graphical representation.

According to recent researches, apparent power in non-sinusoidal single phase system can be represented with geometric algebra. In this paper, the geometric algebra is applied to apparent power defined in a multi-line system having transmission lines with frequency-dependent resistances under non-sinusoidal conditions.

Facial appearance is greatly influenced by illumination conditions, and therefore illumination variation is one of the factors that degrades performance of face recognition systems. In this paper, we propose a robust method for face representation under varying illumination conditions, combining non-alpha Weberface (non-alpha WF) and histogram equalization. We propose a two-step method: (1) for a given face image, non-alpha WF, which is not applied a parameter for adjusting the intensity difference between neighboring pixels in WF, is computed; (2) histogram equalization is performed to non-alpha WF, to make a uniform histogram distribution globally and to enhance the contrast. $(2D)^2PCA$ is applied to extract low-dimensional discriminating features from the preprocessed face image. Experimental results on the extended Yale B face database and the CMU PIE face database show that the proposed method yielded better recognition rates than several illumination processing methods as well as the conventional WF, achieving average recognition rates of 93.31% and 97.25%, respectively.

For on-line signature verification, the local shape of a signature is an important information. The current approaches, in which signatures are represented into a function of time or a feature vector without regarding of local shape, have not used the various features of local shapes, for example, local variation of a signer, local complexity of signature or local difficulty of forger, and etc. In this paper, we propose a new technique for on-line signature verification based on a structural signature representation so as to analyze local shape and to make a selection of important local parts in matching process. That is. based on a structural representation of signature, a technique of important of local weighting and personalized decision threshold is newly introduced and its experimental results under different conditions are compared.

Building Information Modeling(BIM) is rooted in the economic and functional advantages of maturing from paper-based 2D drawings. The paper-based design and construction drawings are typical production from BIM and using the drawing under BIM environment is needed because there is not an alternative media instead of paper-based drawings. However using the 2D drawing process based on 2D CAD for BIM environment directly has difficulties because there are significant differences in data structure between CAD and BIM. CAD is based on traditional drawings as a whole while BIM is focused on individual objects and providing various levels of information associated with the objects. It can be an obstacle to move from 2D CAD to BIM that we don't have a standard or guideline for BIM. Futhermore, the complexity of drawing in representation would be the obstacle too, so the solution is discussed in the research based on the case of Samoo Architects and Engineers.

Synchronous wind-induced pressures, measured in wind-tunnel tests on model buildings instrumented with hundreds of pressure taps, are an invaluable resource for designing safe buildings efficiently. They enable a much more detailed, accurate representation of the forces and moments that drive engineering design than conventional tables and graphs do. However, the very large volumes of data that such tests typically generate pose a challenge to their widespread use in practice. This paper explains how a wavelet representation for the time series of pressure measurements acquired at each tap can be used to compress the data drastically while preserving those features that are most influential for design, and also how it enables incremental data transmission, adaptable to the accuracy needs of each particular application. The loss incurred in such compression is tunable and known. Compression rates as high as 90% induce distortions that are statistically indistinguishable from the intrinsic variability of wind-tunnel testing, which we gauge based on an unusually large collection of replicated tests done under the same wind-tunnel conditions.

As a unique form of signed-digit representation, non-adjacent form (NAF) minimizes Hamming weight by removing a stream of non-zero bits from the binary representation of positive integer. Thanks to this strong point, NAF has been used in various applications such as cryptography, packet filtering and so on. In this paper, to improve the NAF conversion speed of the $NAF_w$ algorithm, we propose a new NAF conversion algorithm, called w-bit Shifting Non-Adjacent Form($SNAF_w$), where w is width of scanning window. By skipping some unnecessary bit comparisons, the proposed algorithm improves the NAF conversion speed of the $NAF_w$ algorithm. To verify the excellence of the $SNAF_w$ algorithm, the $NAF_w$ algorithm and the $SNAF_w$ algorithm are implemented in the 8-bit microprocessor ATmega128. By measuring CPU cycle counter for the NAF conversion under various input patterns, we show that the $SNAF_2$ algorithm not only increases the NAF conversion speed by 24% on average but also reduces deviation in the NAF conversion time for each input pattern by 36%, compared to the $NAF_2$ algorithm. In addition, we show that $SNAF_w$ algorithm is always faster than $NAF_w$ algorithm, regardless of the size of w.

In the economic design of the process control procedure, where quality is measured at certain time intervals, its properties are difficult to derive due to the discreteness of the measurement intervals. In this paper a Markov chain representation of the process monitoring procedure is developed and used to derive its properties when the process follows an ARIMA(0,1,1) model, which is designed to describe the effect of the noise and the special cause in the process cycle. The properties of the Markov chain depend on the transition matrix, which is determined by the control procedure and the process distribution. The derived representation of the Markov chain can be adapted to most different types of control procedures and different kinds of process distributions by obtaining the corresponding transition matrix.

There have been many investigations of predicting the added resistance of a ship in seaway since Havelock discussed this topic in 1937. Among these researches, Maruo's theoretical approach is known as the most consistent mathematical representation for added resistance of a ship in regular head sea. In his theory, the hull form of a ship is represented under the slender body approximation. But the motion responses which were used for the calculation of the added resistance have been obtained by using the strip method which is based on an approximation that the hull form may be expressed as set of two dimensional cylinder sections in longitudinal direction. Therefore two different methods for hull form representation were implicity used in Maruo's original work for the added resistance calculation. Utilizing the characteristics that hull forms are usually slender, Kan expressed the hull form as two dimensional cylinder at each station by using the Taylor series expansion for the length wise direction. Putting this idea into Maruo's original work, the added resistance can be obtained with the explicitly unique representation of the hull form. For the purpose of comparison the added resistance of a hull form(series 60, Cb=0.6) was calculated by using the motion response obtained by Shintani. The numerical result showes a good qualitative agreement with the experimental result by Sibul.
