Recently, as organizational systems have become larger and more complicated, the evaluation for their efficiency and effectiveness has become more difficult but important. It is essential to understand the current strength and weakness of the organizational process. It can be a starting point for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the organizational systems, because the quality of system outputs depend greatly on the capability of system process. Particularly in such process-based industries as semiconductor, energy or software industries, an assessment of process capability is more highlighted to gain knowledge of the expected quality and reliability of system outputs. As a result, much attention has been given to the issues of process capability assessment in the process-based industries. However, most of the previous research in those industries is based on case studies, a more generalized method for process capability assessment is in need for help more companies improve their processes. Therefore, this study aims to propose a process capability assessment method and apply the proposed method to an energy company. This research argues that the process capability is composed of individual and organizational capabilities of the process. Then, the concept of Capability Maturity Model Integration, which was initially suggested to evaluate the software development process, was introduced to develop the assessment tools and process. Finally, the proposed method was applied to a Korean company in the energy industry sector to verify its utility. The research outputs are expected to help more firms assess their process capability and ultimately improve the process.

The wide-field and the round-the clock operation capabilities of the KMTNet enables the discovery, astrometry and follow-up physical characterization of asteroids and comets in a most efficient way. We collectively refer to the team members, partner organizations, the dedicated software subsystem, the computing facility and research activities as Deep Ecliptic Patrol of the Southern Sky (DEEP-South). Most of the telescope time for DEEP-South is devoted to targeted photometry of Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs) to push up the number of the population with known physical properties from several percent to several dozens of percent, in the long run. We primarily adopt Johnson R-band for lightcurve study, while we employ BVI filters for taxonomic classification and detection of any possible color variations of an object at the same time. In this presentation, the progress and new findings since the last KAS meeting will be outlined. We report DEEP-South preliminary lightcurves of several dozens of NEAs obtained at three KMTNet stations during the first year runs. We also present a physical model of asteroid (5247) Krylov, the very first Non principal Axis (NPA) rotator that has been confirmed in the main belt (MB). A new asteroid taxonomic classification scheme will be introduced with an emphasis on its utility in the LSST era. The progress on the current version of automated mover detection software will also be summarized.

The purpose of this research is to provide for some useful data for computer-related courses of the landscape science, assuming that computers are being and should be used more and more in landscape architecture and therefore, that landscape science students need to respond positively to such a trend. For this purpose, landscape architecture studios and their landscape architects were surveyed for their computer and its program uses as well as their satisfaction with the utility of computer for their landscape works. The results of this research are as follows; 1) 10.7% of the landscape architects surveyed answered that they had learned about their necessary softwares at school, while 61.6% of the studios surveyed were less satisfied with their employees' poor computing ability. Such findings suggest a lack of computer-related courses in landscape science and therefore, that more computer-related courses should be introduced for landscape science students together with the necessary software education. 2) Too few landscape softwares are being used by the landscape architecture studios; such softwares as AutoCAD, Photoshop, 3D Max, Excel, PowerPoint and 한글 account for more than 90% of the landscape architecture softwares being used currently. Quite naturally, landscape students need to be trained on these softwares above all. 3) It was found hat he area of work using the computer most was ˝design works˝(84.5%), followed by ˝documentation˝(83.8%), ˝image editing˝(75.1%), ˝cost calculation˝(68.2%), ˝presentation˝(68.1%), ˝analysis˝(37.8%) and ˝rendering˝(35%). It was regretable to discover that such areas requiring more computing work as ˝analysis˝ and ˝rendering˝ were still worked manually. So it sis deemed necessary for landscape science courses to enhance their computer education of such areas first of all.

This study investigated the change in lip movement during speech according to aging. For the study, 15 elderly women with an average of 69 years and 15 young women with an average of 22 years were selected. To measure the movement of the lips, the ratio between the minimum point and the maximum point of movement when pronouncing a double vowel was analyzed in pixel units using image analysis software. For clinical utility, the software was produced by applying an automated algorithm and compared with the results of handwork. This study found that the range of the width and length of lips in double vowel tasks was smaller for the elderly than that of the young. A strong positive correlation was found between manual and automated methods, indicating that both methods are useful for extracting lip contours. Based on the above results, it was found that the range of the lips decreased when ignited as aging progressed. Therefore, monitoring the condition of lip performance by simply measuring the movement of lips before aging progresses, and performing exercises to maintain lip range, will prevent pronunciation problems caused by aging.

The bearing methods using pile of steel itself or reinforced concrete has been applying which in excavated depth was not deep. Also, the retaining wall as resisting structure to lateral force has taken weakness that the cure periods of concreted is long. Recently, with the material cost of steel, the application of cement is more increasing trend. In this study, the design methods of earth retaining and retention wall within the pre-casted concrete pile, PHC(Pretentioned spun High strength Concrete piles), was proposed which in the ground condition of excavated depth was not deep. The typical ground conditions, cohesive and non-cohesive soil, was considered as follows; soil strength as internal friction angle and UU(Undrained Unconsolidation triaxial test) strength, soil reaction and stabilization of structures. The application of design methods could be confirmed through the comparing and analyzing between measured data and utility software for the design.

The task of classification permeates all walks of life, from business and economics to science and public policy. In this context, nonlinear techniques from artificial intelligence have often proven to be more effective than the methods of classical statistics. The objective of knowledge discovery and data mining is to support decision making through the effective use of information. The automated approach to knowledge discovery is especially useful when dealing with large data sets or complex relationships. For many applications, automated software may find subtle patterns which escape the notice of manual analysis, or whose complexity exceeds the cognitive capabilities of humans. This paper explores the utility of a collaborative learning approach involving integrated models in the preprocessing and postprocessing stages. For instance, a genetic algorithm effects feature-weight optimization in a preprocessing module. Moreover, an inductive tree, artificial neural network (ANN), and k-nearest neighbor (kNN) techniques serve as postprocessing modules. More specifically, the postprocessors act as second0order classifiers which determine the best first-order classifier on a case-by-case basis. In addition to the second-order models, a voting scheme is investigated as a simple, but efficient, postprocessing model. The first-order models consist of statistical and machine learning models such as logistic regression (logit), multivariate discriminant analysis (MDA), ANN, and kNN. The genetic algorithm, inductive decision tree, and voting scheme act as kernel modules for collaborative learning. These ideas are explored against the background of a practical application relating to financial fraud management which exemplifies a binary classification problem.

In this paper, we present a preprocessor which corrects word spacing errors and spelling correction errors simultaneously. The proposed expands noisy-channel model so that it corrects both errors in colloquial style sentences effectively, while preprocessing algorithms have limitations because they correct each error separately. Using Eojeol transition pattern dictionary and statistical data such as n-gram and Jaso transition probabilities, it minimizes the usage of dictionaries and produces the corrected candidates effectively. In experiments we did not get satisfactory results at current stage, we noticed that the proposed methodology has the utility by analyzing the errors. So we expect that the preprocessor will function as an effective error corrector for general colloquial style sentence by doing more improvements.
