For a quadrilateral P, we consider the centroid $G_0$ of the vertices of P, the perimeter centroid $G_1$ of the edges of P and the centroid $G_2$ of the interior of P, respectively. We denote by M the intersection point of two diagonals of P. If P is a parallelogram, then we have $G_0=G_1=G_2=M$. Conversely, one of $G_0=M$ and $G_2=M$ implies that P is a parallelogram. In this paper, we show that $G_1=M$ is also a characteristic property of parallelograms.

This paper is concerned with the problem of recognizing definition sentences. Given a definition question like "Who is the person X?", we are to retrieve the definition sentences which capture descriptive information correspond variously to a person's age, occupation, of some role a person played in an event from the collection of news articles. In order to retrieve as many relevant sentences for the definition question as possible, we adopt a centroid based statistical approach which has been applied in summarization of multiple documents. To improve the precision and recall performance, the weight measure of centroid words is supplemented by using external knowledge resource such as Wikipedia and redundant candidate sentences are removed from candidate definitions. We see some improvements obtained by our approach over the baseline for 20 IT persons who have high document frequency.

For a polygon P, we consider the centroid $G_0$ of the vertices of P, the centroid $G_1$ of the edges of P and the centroid $G_2$ of the interior of P. When P is a triangle, (1) we always have $G_0=G_2$ and (2) P satisfies $G_1=G_2$ if and only if it is equilateral. For a quadrangle P, one of $G_0=G_2$ and $G_0=G_1$ implies that P is a parallelogram. In this paper, we investigate the relationships between centroids of quadrangles. As a result, we establish some characterizations for rhombi and show that among convex quadrangles whose two diagonals are perpendicular to each other, rhombi and kites are the only ones satisfying $G_1=G_2$. Furthermore, we completely classify such quadrangles.

For a quadrilateral P, we consider the centroid $G_0$ of the vertices of P, the perimeter centroid $G_1$ of the edges of P and the centroid $G_2$ of the interior of P, respectively. It is well known that P satisfies $G_0=G_1$ or $G_0=G_2$ if and only if it is a parallelogram. In this note, we investigate various quadrilaterals satisfying $G_1=G_2$. As a result, for example, we show that among circumscribed quadrilaterals kites are the only ones satisfying $G_1=G_2$. Furthermore, such kites are completely classified.

Virtual work in multibody systems is frequently expressed as the inner product of the virtual displacement and the resultant force at the centroid. But provided that the resultant force is converted into the equipollent forces there is no restriction on where the analysis reference point is placed. There are basically three candidate points : the centroid, joint point and the instant global origin. The traditional fully recursive formulation uses the centroid, but the present work verifies that the instant global origin always shows better efficiency (e.g. 86% CPU time of the centroid for quarter car model) and joint point shows the efficiency between that of the centroid and the instant global origin. A discussion on how important it is to define the analysis reference point properly in a fully recursive formulation is also presented.

The aim of this note is to study properties of the generalized centroid of the semi-prime gamma rings. Main results are the following theorems: (1) Let M be a semi-prime $\Gamma$-ring and Q a quotient $\Gamma$-ring of M. If W is a non-zero submodule of the right (left) M-module Q, then $W\Gamma$W $\neq 0. Furthermore Q is a semi-prime $\Gamma$-ring. (2) Let M be a semi-prime $\Gamma$-ring and $C_{{Gamma}$ the generalized centroid of M. Then $C_{\Gamma}$ is a regular $\Gamma$-ring. (3) Let M be a semi-prime $\Gamma$-ring and $C_{\gamma}$ the extended centroid of M. If $C_{\gamma}$ is a $\Gamma$-field, then the $\Gamma$-ring M is a prime $\Gamma$-ring.

To investigate the influence of partial discharge(PD) distribution characteristics due to various defects on the power cable joints interface, we used the K-means clustering method. As the result of PD number(n) distribution analyzing on $\Phi-n$ graph, the phase angle($\Phi$) of cluster centroid shifted to $0^{\circ}\;and\;180^{\circ}$ increasing with applying voltage. It was confirmed that the PD quantify(q) and euclidean distance of centroid were increased with applying voltage from the centroid distribution analyzing of $\Phi-q$ plane. The dispersion degree was increased with calculated standard deviation of the $\Phi-q$ cluster centroid. The PD number and mean value on $\Phi-q$ graph were some different by electric field concentration with defect types.

This study was conducted to compare volumes estimated from two taper functions and observed volumes of Chamaecyparis obtusa trees to evaluate accuracy and precision of centroid method. Centroid volume estimates were also compared with volume estimates from existing Forest Resources Evaluation and Prediction Program. The results of this study showed that Gregoire's simple taper function produced unbiased volume estimates while the others were biased. Volume estimates from the Forest Resources Evaluation and Prediction Program were also biased when applied in the Jangseong National Forest regions. These results suggested that the centroid method could produce reliable stem volumes of trees when no other reliable stem volume equations exist.
