This study aimed to objectively classify the lateral torso posture types and functions of older women. We used 3D body scan data of 119 women aged 70-85 years from the 6th SizeKorea project. First, we defined three torso axes to represent the lateral torso posture types: posterior waist-back, back-cervical, and whole torso axes. Next, we asked experts to select one of four lateral torso posture types-stooped, straight, leaning back, and swayback postures-by looking at the lateral photographic data of 119 older women. To identify the axis that best represented each lateral torso posture type, a discriminant analysis was conducted using the angle of each of the three torso axes as an independent variable and an expert's visual classification as a dependent variable. Based on the analysis, the whole torso and backcervical axis angles were selected as variables for judging lateral torso posture types. Subsequently, we developed a classification function to determine which of the four lateral torso posture types of a particular participant was applicable for a new individual. The method developed in this study is significant in that it enables the objective classification of the lateral torso postures types of older women.

A forest functions classification map is an essential element for the management planning of national forests. This study was intended to make out the map at the stand level by utilizing the Forest Functions Evaluation Program(FFEP), developed by Korea Forest Research Institute. In this program, the potential of each function was evaluated in each grid cell, and then a forest functions estimation map was generated based on the optimum grid cell values in each sub-compartment unit. Finally, the program produced a forest functions classification map with consideration of the priority of the functions. The final forest functions classification map required for the national forest management planning made out overlapping those results which the rest of the forest classified referring priority functions classification map to national forest manager and classified according to the local administrative guidance and sustainable forest resources management guidance. The results indicated that the forest function classification using the FFEP program could be an efficient tool for providing the data required for national forest management planning. Also this study made a meaningful progress in the forest function classification by considering the local forest administrative guidance and sustainable forest resources management guidance.

The classification scheme of records indicates a table that intends to express organic relations between records by organizing records and enabling internal order. Although the principles of organic classification have remained in traditional records management environment, they have been changed to "function and business" in the modern times. Therefore, Korea introduced a business reference model (BRM) based on function and business from 2008 and subsequently implemented its operation. However, it has been pointed out that the roles of the classification scheme of records have not been played because the analysis of "Danwigwaje," which belongs to the lowest level of business reference models, is poor. According to this indication, the Gangbuk District of Seoul Special City established a functional classification scheme by executing a business process analysis of "Danwigwaje." First, the record manager carried out analyses on the principles of "Danwigwaje," small function, and "Danwigwaje." Then, the functional classification scheme of "Danwigwaje" was modified by looking into the opinion inquiry process of the treatment department and performing a test operation. Through the case of the Gangbuk District in Seoul Special City, analytical procedures and methods of "Danwigwaje," as well as implications according to the establishment of a functional classification scheme of basic local governments, were arranged in a written format.

In this study, we propose an alternative method for discriminant analysis using a multivariate empirical distribution function to express multivariate data as a simple one-dimensional statistic. This method turns to be the estimation process of the optimal threshold based on classification accuracy measures and an empirical distribution function of data composed of classes. This can also be visually represented on a two-dimensional plane and discussed with some measures in ROC curves, surfaces, and manifolds. In order to explore the usefulness of this method for discriminant analysis in the study, we conducted comparisons between the proposed method and the existing methods through simulations and illustrative examples. It is found that the proposed method may have better performances for some cases.

Recently, computer vision application is increasing by using CNN which is one of the deep learning algorithms. However, CNN does not provide perfect classification performance due to gradient vanishing problem. Most of CNN algorithms use an activation function called ReLU to mitigate the gradient vanishing problem. In this study, four activation functions that can replace ReLU were applied to four different structural networks. Experimental results show that ReLU has the lowest performance in accuracy, loss rate, and speed of initial learning convergence from 20 experiments. It is concluded that the optimal activation function varied from network to network but the four activation functions were higher than ReLU.

A batch-mode algorithm is proposed to increase the speed of learning in the error backpropagation algorithm with variable learning rate and variable momentum parameters in classification problems. The objective function is normalized with respect to the number of patterns and output nodes. Also the gradient of the objective function is normalized in updating the connection weights to increase the effect of its backpropagated error. The learning rate and momentum parameters are determined from a function of the gradient norm and the number of weights. The learning rate depends on the square rott of the gradient norm while the momentum parameters depend on the gradient norm. In the two typical classification problems, simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

The use of a chemical sensor array can help discriminate between chemicals when comparing one sample with another. The ability to classify pattern characteristics from relatively small pieces of information has led to growing interest in methods of sensor recognition. A variety of pattern recognition algorithms, including the adaptive radial basis function network (RBFN), may be applicable to gas and/ or odor classification. In this paper, we provide a broad review of approaches for various types of gas and/or odor identification techniques based on RBFN and drift compensation techniques caused by sensor poisoning and aging.

New technologies representing the Fourth Industrial Revolution are already being realized in library services. There is not, however, active research on measures to increase work efficiency by introducing a new technology in the work of "classification" that is part of the traditional librarian jobs they should continue in the future. The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) has not issued a print version since 2018. This study analyzes cases of WebDewey, Classification Web, and UDC Online. The functions required for the development of the Korean Decimal Classification (KDC) web version were derived, and the final functions suitable for the development of the KDC web version were proposed through AHP analysis.

Recently, studies on utilizing tensor expression on image data analysis and processing have been attracting much interest. The purpose of this study is to develop an efficient system for classifying image patterns by using second order tensor expression. To achieve the goal, we propose a data generation model expressed by class factors and environment factors with second order tensor representation. Based on the data generation model, we define a function for measuring similarities between two images. The similarity function is obtained by estimating the probability density of environment factors using a matrix normal distribution. Through computational experiments on a number of benchmark data sets, we confirm that we can make improvement in classification rates by using second order tensor, and that the proposed similarity function is more appropriate for image data compared to conventional similarity measures.

The active database system introduces the active rules detecting specified state. As the condition evaluation of the active rules is performed every time an event occurs, the performance of the system has a great influence, depending on the conditions processing method. In this paper, we propose the conditions processing system with the preprocessor which determines the delta tree structure, constructs the classification tree, and generates the aggregate function table. Due to the characteristics of the active database through which the active rules can be comprehended beforehand, the preprocessor can be introduced. In this paper, the delta tree which can effectively process the join, selection operations, and the aggregate function is suggested, and it can enhance the condition evaluation performance. And we propose the classification tree which effectively processes the join operation and the aggregate function table processing the aggregate function which demands high cost. In this paper, the conditions processing system can be expected to enhance the performance of conditions processing in the active rules as the number of conditions comparison decreases because of the structure which is made in the preprocessor.
