In this paper, we consider the optimal control of detection threshold to minimize the conditional mean-square state estimation error for the probabilistic data association (PDA) filter. Earlier works on this problem involved the cumbersome graphical optimization algorithm or time-consuming numerical optimization algorithm. Using the numerical approximation of information reduction factor, we obtained the closed-form optimal detection threshold. This results are very useful for real-time implemenation.

The swallowing threshold tests were conducted on the 8 subjects over one month of full denture wearing experience of Korean. The results were follows. 1) The swallowing threshold of the full denture wearer was higher than that of the normal control group. 2) The swallowing threshold of the full denture wearer was different according to the quality and quantity of the test food. 3) The swallowing threshold of full denture wearer seemed to be no correlation between short and long duration of wearing experience.

본 논문에서는 기존 에너지 스펙트럼 센싱 할 경우 고정된 FA를 기반으로 정해진 임계값에 따라 센싱이 진행된다. 하지만 SNR 상태가 높다면 낮은 레벨의 SNR에서보 비해 오경보 확률이 일어날 확률이 상대적으로 적어진다. 따라서 90%로 이상의 검출확률을 얻는 구간에 대하여 FA를 제어하는 방법으로 오경보 확률을 높게 설정하지 않아도 검출확률이 유지 되는지를 확인한다. 따라서 CR사용자의 SNR 상태에 따라 FA값을 컨트롤하여 적응적 임계값을 얻는 시스템 모델을 제안하고 성능을 분석한다.

본 연구에서는 불안과 우울감과 같은 정서상태가 만성적인 통증 인지와 상관관계가 있는지를 알아보고자 PTSD 환자군의 압통에 대한 역치와 불안증상, 우울증상의 정도를 측정하였고, 불안, 우울증상의 정도와 압통역치의 상관관계를 대조군과 비교하였다. 연구대상 환자군은 1997년 10월부터 1998년 3월까지 중앙대학교 의과대학 부속필동병원 및 용산병원 신경정신과에 입원한 환자와 외래환자들 중에서 PTSD에 진단된, 20-60세에 해당되는 성인 남자환자 23명을 대상으로 하였다. 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) PTSD 환자군에서 통계적으로 의미있게 높은 우울증상과 불안증상을 보였다(p<.05). 2) 압통에 대한 역치는 환자군에서 유의하게 높은 결과를 보였다(p<.05). 이런 결과를 보인 요인으로는, 환자군의 불안증상보다는 만성적인 우울증상이 통증역치의 증가에 부분적으로나마 영향을 주었을 것으로 추정되며 그외에 환자군에서의 opiate system의 이상, 환자군의 질병역할, 환자군이 처한 여러 사회환경적인 상황의 영향 등과 같은 여러 요인이 관련되었을 것이라고 생각한다. 결론적으로 PTSD의 만성 통증은 감정, 특히 우울증과 관련이 있을 것으로 보였으나, 그 인과관계에 대한 결론을 내리기에는 미흡한 점들이 있다. 앞서 언급한 여러 제한점들을 보완한 향후 연구를 통해 정서적 증상과 동통과의 보다 특이적인 연관성을 규명하는 연구가 필요할 것이라 생각한다.

We consider a single channel CSMA/CD system with D homogeneous stations and impeded buffer of infinite size. We find a sufficient condition for the model to be stable under the threshold control policy and derive the limiting distri-bution of the number of messages in the system at the moment of service completion. We also derive the limiting distributing of the number of messages in the system size at arbitrary time by using Markov regenerative processes. Some numerical examples and special cases are also treated.

3GPP는 RLC 프로토콜 명세서에서 신뢰할 수 있는 데이타 전송을 위해 window에 의해 조절되는 selective-repeat ARQ 방식을 채택하였다. 3GPP의 ARQ는 selective-repeat ARQ 부류에 속하므로 재정렬 문제가 불가피하게 야기된다. 긴 재정렬 시간은 throughput 및 지연 성능의 열화를 빚어내고 재정렬 버퍼의 범람을 불러올 수 있다. 또한 데이타의 상실 및 지연에 모두 민감한 서비스의 요구 조건을 수용하기 위해 재정렬 시간은 반드시 통제되어야 한다. 3GPP ARQ에서 window의 크기나 상태 보고 주기를 줄여 재정렬 버퍼의 점유량을 감소시킬 수 있다. 이로 인해 throughput 및 지연 성능이 저하되고 역방향 채널의 자원이 잠식된다. 재정렬 버퍼의 점유량을 줄이는 동시에 throughput 및 지연 성능의 열화를 억제하기 위한 방안으로 본 논문에서는 post-threshold 방식과 pre-threshold 방식이라는 threshold에 의존하는 점유량 조절 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 방식의 효과성을 판단하기 위해 fading 채널 등 실제적인 환경에서 최고 점유량, 최대 throughput, 평균 지연을 조사한다. 모의 실험 결과로부터 제안한 방식이 점유량과 throughput 간에 trade-off를 불러옴을 관찰한다. 또한 post-threshold 방식은 3GPP의 ARQ와 비교하여 재정렬 버퍼의 점유량을 증가시키지 않고 throughput 및 지연 성능을 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인한다.

The effectiveness of Wi-Fi networks is greatly influenced by the optimization of contention window (CW) parameters. Unfortunately, the conventional approach employed by IEEE 802.11 wireless networks is not scalable enough to sustain consistent performance for the increasing number of stations. Yet, it is still the default when accessing channels for single-users of 802.11 transmissions. Recently, there has been a spike in attempts to enhance network performance using a machine learning (ML) technique known as reinforcement learning (RL). Its advantage is interacting with the surrounding environment and making decisions based on its own experience. Deep RL (DRL) uses deep neural networks (DNN) to deal with more complex environments (such as continuous state spaces or actions spaces) and to get optimum rewards. As a result, we present a new approach of CW control mechanism, which is termed as contention window threshold (CW_Threshold). It uses the DRL principle to define the threshold value and learn optimal settings under various network scenarios. We demonstrate our proposed method, known as a smart exponential-threshold-linear backoff algorithm with a deep Q-learning network (SETL-DQN). The simulation results show that our proposed SETL-DQN algorithm can effectively improve the throughput and reduce the collision rates.

In the present study, we tested whether lead intoxication induces change of the thiamine content and the seizure threshold in rats and the changes of seizure threshold are related to the changes of thiamine status. It was also tested whether administration of excessive thiamine could reverse the toxic manifestation of lead in rats. Four groups of Wistar rats were prepared: 1) control group, 2) lead treated group, 3) lead plusthiamine treated group, and 4) thiamine deficient group. Each group of animals was divided into three subgroups based on age: 3, 7 and 16 weeks. In each group, thresholds of electroshock seizure and thiamine contents in brain regions including telencephalon, brain stem, cerebellum were measured. Thiamine contents in brain regions of the lead treated group were significantly lower than those of the control group and thiamine treatment reversed the decrease back to the control level. Thresholds of the electroshock seizure of the lead treated group in 3, 7 week old rats and those of thiamine deficient group in 3 week old rats were significantly lower than those of the control group. These observations were reversed by the supplementation with thiamine. These results from the present study suggest that increased seizure sensitivity induced by lead intoxication in rats may be mediated at least in part through the changes of thiamine status.

3GPP's RLC protocol specification adopted an error control scheme based on selective repeat ARQ. In 3GPP ARQ, distinctive windows are provide at transmitting and receiving stations so that those stations are prohibited to send or receive data PDU's out of window. An increase in window size enhances delay performance. Such an increase, however, raises the occupancy at reordering buffer, which results in a long reordering time. Aiming at suppressing the occupancy at reordering buffer, we propose a occupancy control scheme in this paper. In this scheme, a threshold is created in the receiving station's window and a data PDU out of the threshold (but within the window) is treated according to go back N ARQ. By the employment of the occupancy control scheme, the occupancy at the reordering buffer is apparently reduced, while the delay performance may be degraded due to the properties of go back N ARQ. We, thus, investigate the peak occupancy and mean delay performance by a simulation method. From numerical examples, we observe a trade-off in both performance measures and conclude that the peak occupancy is effectively reduced by setting a proper threshold under a constraint on mean delay performance.

It was recognized that lead intoxication reduces thiamine content in the brain of rat and this change produces the alterations of thiamine-related biochemical reactions. In the present study, it was tested whether the changes of myelin composition as well as seizure threshold induced by lead intoxication in rats may be related to these changes of thiamine status and thiamine related biochemical factors. Wistar rats were divided into five groups: Control group, Lead-treated group, Lead plus Thiamine-treated group, Thiamine-deficient group, Pyrithiamine-treated group. Each group was divided into three subgroups: 3, 7 and 16 week old group. Myelin protein and phospholipid, one of the compositions of myelin lipid, were measured in the myelin isolated from rat brain. Threshold of electric shock seizure was tested in each group. The amount of each myelin composition in lead-treated group and thiamine-deficient group was significantly lower than those of all the brains in control group, but recovery by supplementation with thiamine during lead intoxication was occurred only in the cerebellum of 3 week old animal. Thresholds of the electric shock seizure of lead treated group and thiamine deficient group in 3 and 7 week old rats were significantly lower than those of control group, while those of lead plus thiamine treated group were similar to those of control group.
