Monitoring fetal growth in utero is crucial to anomaly diagnosis. However, current computer-vision models struggle to accurately assess the key metrics (i.e., head circumference and occipitofrontal and biparietal diameters) from ultrasound images, largely owing to a lack of training data. Mitigation usually entails image augmentation (e.g., flipping, rotating, scaling, and translating). Nevertheless, the accuracy of our task remains insufficient. Hence, we offer a U-Net fetal head measurement tool that leverages a hybrid Dice and binary cross-entropy loss to compute the similarity between actual and predicted segmented regions. Ellipse-fitted two-dimensional ultrasound images acquired from the HC18 dataset are input, and their lower feature layers are reused for efficiency. During regression, a novel region of interest pooling layer extracts elliptical feature maps, and during segmentation, feature pyramids fuse field-layer data with a new scale attention method to reduce noise. Performance is measured by Dice similarity, mean pixel accuracy, and mean intersection-over-union, giving 97.90%, 99.18%, and 97.81% scores, respectively, which match or outperform the best U-Net models.

A Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) is a system that provides positioning information with high and accurate reliability to users who require ensuring high safety such as airplane taking off and landing. A continuous performance evaluation on navigation safety facilities shall be performed to determine whether developed systems meet the required performance before and after the operation. In this paper, SBAS position domain analysis is discussed in relation to analysis items for performance evaluation. The performance evaluation on the SBAS in the position domain shall conduct analysis on accuracy, integrity, continuity, and availability, which are items in the required navigation performance (RNP). In the paper, position domain analysis was conducted with regard to the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) in the USA and the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS), which were developed already and now under operation. The analysis result showed that each of the systems satisfied the APV-I performance requirements recommended by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) with regard to daily data. It is necessary to verify using long-term data, whether the performance requirements in the RNP items are satisfied for system certification.

Early detection of the pulmonary nodule is important for diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. Recently, CT has been used as a screening tool for lung nodule detection. And, it has been reported that computer aided detection(CAD) systems can improve the accuracy of the radiologist in detection nodules on CT scan. The previous study has been proposed a method using Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) in Lung CAD system. But the proposed model has a limitation in accuracy due to its sparse layer structure. Therefore, we propose a Deep Convolutional Neural Network to overcome this limitation. The model proposed in this work is consist of 14 layers including 8 convolutional layers and 4 fully connected layers. The CNN model is trained and tested with 61,404 regions-of-interest (ROIs) patches of lung image including 39,760 nodules and 21,644 non-nodules extracted from the Lung Image Database Consortium(LIDC) dataset. We could obtain the classification accuracy of 91.79% with the CNN model presented in this work. To prevent overfitting, we trained the model with Augmented Dataset and regularization term in the cost function. With L1, L2 regularization at Training process, we obtained 92.39%, 92.52% of accuracy respectively. And we obtained 93.52% with data augmentation. In conclusion, we could obtain the accuracy of 93.75% with L2 Regularization and Data Augmentation.

Named Entity Recognition is a system that extracts entity names such as Persons(PS), Locations(LC), and Organizations(OG) that can have a unique meaning from a document and determines the categories of extracted entity names. Recently, Bi-LSTM-CRF, which is a combination of CRF using the transition probability between output data from LSTM-based Bi-LSTM model considering forward and backward directions of input data, showed excellent performance in the study of object name recognition using deep-learning, and it has a good performance on the efficient embedding vector creation by character and word unit and the model using CNN and LSTM. In this research, we describe the Bi-LSTM-CNN-CRF model that enhances the features of the Korean named entity recognition system and propose a method for constructing the traditional culture corpus. We also present the results of learning the constructed corpus with the feature augmentation model for the recognition of Korean object names.

We introduce three types of exponential survival models, such as simple model, change-point model and finite mixture model in this paper. Among these models, in order to choose the best model, the model choice method is proposed using Gelfand and Ghosh(1998)'s idea. Then to avoid the computational difficulties, data augmentation method (Tanner and Wong, 1987) and Gibbs sampler (Gelfand and Smith, 1990) are employed. Our methodology is applied to both simulated data and Stangl (1991)'s On-impramint Hydrochloride data.

This study aims to predict the change in corn share according to the grazing of 20 gestational sows in a mature corn field by taking images with a camera-equipped unmanned air vehicle (UAV). Deep learning based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has been verified for its performance in various areas. It has also demonstrated high recognition accuracy and detection time in agricultural applications such as pest and disease diagnosis and prediction. A large amount of data is required to train CNNs effectively. Still, since UAVs capture only a limited number of images, we propose a data augmentation method that can effectively increase data. And most occupancy prediction predicts occupancy by designing a CNN-based object detector for an image and counting the number of recognized objects or calculating the number of pixels occupied by an object. These methods require complex occupancy rate calculations; the accuracy depends on whether the object features of interest are visible in the image. However, in this study, CNN is not approached as a corn object detection and classification problem but as a function approximation and regression problem so that the occupancy rate of corn objects in an image can be represented as the CNN output. The proposed method effectively estimates occupancy for a limited number of cornfield photos, shows excellent prediction accuracy, and confirms the potential and scalability of deep learning.

Internet users are exposed to sophisticated cyberattacks that intrusion detection systems have difficulty detecting. Therefore, research is increasing on intrusion detection methods that use artificial intelligence technology for detecting novel cyberattacks. Unsupervised learning-based methods are being researched that learn only from normal data and detect abnormal behaviors by finding patterns. This study developed an anomaly-detection method based on unsupervised machines and deep learning for a network intrusion detection system (NIDS). We present a hybrid anomaly detection approach based on unsupervised learning techniques using the autoencoder (AE), Isolation Forest (IF), and Local Outlier Factor (LOF) algorithms. An oversampling approach that increased the detection rate was also examined. A hybrid approach that combined deep learning algorithms and traditional machine learning algorithms was highly effective in setting the thresholds for anomalies without subjective human judgment. It achieved precision and recall rates respectively of 88.2% and 92.8% when combining two AEs, IF, and LOF while using an oversampling approach to learn more unknown normal data improved the detection accuracy. This approach achieved precision and recall rates respectively of 88.2% and 94.6%, further improving the detection accuracy compared with the hybrid method. Therefore, in NIDS the proposed approach provides high reliability for detecting cyberattacks.

This paper is concerned with a transfer alignment method for the SDINS under ship motions. Major error sources of transfer alignment are data transfer time-delay, lever-arm velocity and ship body flexure. Specifically, to reduce alignment errors induced by measurement time-delay effects, the error compensation method through delay state augmentation is suggested. A linearized error model for the velocity and attitude matching transfer alignment system is first derived by linearizing the nonliner measurement equation with respect to its time delay and augmenting the delay state into the conventional linear state equations. And then it is shown via observability analysis and computer simulations that the delay state can be estimated and compensated during ship motions resulting in considerably less alignment errors.

This article is concerned with the selecting predictor variables to be included in building a class of binary response t-link regression models where both probit and logistic regression models can e approximately taken as members of the class. It is based on a modification of the stochastic search variable selection method(SSVS), intended to propose and develop a Bayesian procedure that used probabilistic considerations for selecting promising subsets of predictor variables. The procedure reformulates the binary response t-link regression setup in a hierarchical truncated normal mixture model by introducing a set of hyperparameters that will be used to identify subset choices. In this setup, the most promising subset of predictors can be identified as that with highest posterior probability in the marginal posterior distribution of the hyperparameters. To highlight the merit of the procedure, an illustrative numerical example is given.

During the financial crisis in the late 1990s, we witnessed the large corporations failing at one moment. It is clear that the debt-dependant size augmentation and duplicate investment, and the failure in fund liquidity adjustment were the greatest causes rather than the long-term strategic advantage. Such fact, however, has led to the introduction of advanced financial techniques and security/management of fund liquidity. In order to propose a method to secure fund liquidity at the construction level, this study considers the documentational/precedent studies on project financing among fund procurement methods. And the fund liquidity status at construction level is investigated domestically/internationally to analyze the fund flow. Finally, the actual data is used to analyze progress rate and sales rate to end with the proposal of the method to secure fund liquidity in the progression of this study.
