  • The new concept of the Bonding and Antibonding Regions in the transition density space is developed from the Integral Hellmann-Feynman Theorem and the positive definiteness of the transition density. The unility of this concept is fully demonstrated for H2 system. It is expected that the nature of the electronic perturbation energy due to the change of nuclear configuration can be successfully understood by using this concept. Properties of the transition density is briefly discussed.

  • The aim of this paper is to investigate the secondary buckling behaviour and mode-coupling of spherical caps under uniformly external pressure. The analysis makes use of a rotational finite shell element on the basis of strain-displacement relations according to Koiter's shell theory (Small Finite Deflections). The post-buckling behaviours after a bifurcation point are analyzed precisely by considering multi-mode coupling between several higher order harmonic wave numbers: and on the way of post-buckling path the positive definiteness of incremental stiffness matrix of uncoupled modes is examined step by step. The secondary buckling point that has zero eigen-value of incremental stiffness matrix and the corresponding secondary mode are obtained, moreover, the secondary post-buckling path is traced.

  • To analyze longitudinal count data, Poisson linear mixed models are commonly used. In the models the random effects covariance matrix explains both within-subject variation and serial correlation of repeated count outcomes. When the random effects covariance matrix is assumed to be misspecified, the estimates of covariates effects can be biased. Therefore, we propose reasonable and flexible structures of the covariance matrix using autoregressive and moving average Cholesky decomposition (ARMACD). The ARMACD factors the covariance matrix into generalized autoregressive parameters (GARPs), generalized moving average parameters (GMAPs) and innovation variances (IVs). Positive IVs guarantee the positive-definiteness of the covariance matrix. In this paper, we use the ARMACD to model the random effects covariance matrix in Poisson loglinear mixed models. We analyze epileptic seizure data using our proposed model.

  • 기존의 연구는 DNA 커널을 통한 기계 학습이 DNA 분자들을 통한 in vitro 실험을 통해 가능함을 보였다. 이 때, DNA 커널을 통한 분류 분제는 온도 조절을 통해 양한정(positive definite) 조건을 만족시킬 때 분류 문제를 잘 풀며, 양한정 조건을 만족시키기 위한 조건으로 높은 온도에서 시작하여 온도를 내리며 hybridization시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 이 논문에서는 보다 정량적인 분석을 통해서 이 hybridization 방법이 양한정 조건을 만족시키기에 적합한 방법임을 보이고, 간단한 hybridization 모델을 통해 양한정 조건을 만족시킬 수 있는 hybridization 온도 계획의 충분 조건을 유도한다. 또한 시작 온도와 끝 온도의 경계 조건으로 제시되는 이 충분 조건을 통해 현실적인 온도 조절 계획을 위한 시퀀스의 코딩 방법을 알게 된다.

  • Longitudinal studies repeatedly measure outcomes over time. Therefore, repeated measurements are serially correlated from same subject (within-subject variation) and there is also variation between subjects (between-subject variation). The serial correlation and the between-subject variation must be taken into account to make proper inference on covariate effects (Diggle et al., 2002). However, estimation of the covariance matrix is challenging because of many parameters and positive definiteness of the matrix. To overcome these limitations, we propose autoregressive moving average Cholesky decomposition (ARMACD) for the linear mixed models. The ARMACD allows a class of flexible, nonstationary, and heteroscedastic models that exploits the structure allowed by combining the AR and MA modeling of the random effects covariance matrix. We analyze a real dataset to illustrate our proposed methods.

  • Modeling of the random effects covariance matrix in generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) is an issue in analysis of longitudinal categorical data because the covariance matrix can be high-dimensional and its estimate must satisfy positive-definiteness. To satisfy these constraints, we consider the autoregressive and moving average Cholesky decomposition (ARMACD) to model the covariance matrix. The ARMACD creates a more flexible decomposition of the covariance matrix that provides generalized autoregressive parameters, generalized moving average parameters, and innovation variances. In this paper, we analyze longitudinal count data with overdispersion using GLMMs. We propose negative binomial loglinear mixed models to analyze longitudinal count data and we also present modeling of the random effects covariance matrix using the ARMACD. Epilepsy data are analyzed using our proposed model.

  • This paper proposes an informational approach to the dative alternation in English following up on the Stochastic Optimality- Theoretic (OT) model by Bresnan and Nikitina (2003). While Bresnan and Nikitina's stochastic OT model resolves the crucial problem of 'gradience' unavoidably implicated in variation phenomena by applying the notion of probability to linguistic problems, it fails to account for the details of the unusually alternating examples, which normally would not alternate. More importantly, it fails to capture the focus effect involved in the alternation. This paper has worked out all the problematic examples by modifying the Bresnan and Nikitina model. This new account captures not only the unusual behavior of the less-alternating verbs and idioms but also the special focus effect of the common alternating verbs.

  • The present paper aims to set forth a two-dimensional theory for the dynamics of plates that is valid over a large range of excitation. To construct a dynamic plate theory within the long-wavelength approximation, two dimensional-reduction procedures must be used for analyzing the low- and high-frequency behaviors under the dynamic variational-asymptotic method. Moreover, a separate and logically independent step for the short-wavelength regime is introduced into the present approach to avoid violation of the positive definiteness of the derived energy functional and to facilitate qualitative description of the three-dimensional dispersion curve in the short-wavelength regime. Two examples are presented to demonstrate the capabilities and accuracy of all of the formulas derived herein by using various dispersion curves through comparison with the three-dimensional finite element method.

  • For shield TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) tunnel lining, the segment joint is the most critical component for determining the mechanical response of the complete lining ring. To investigate the mechanical behavior of the segment joint in a water conveyance tunnel, which is different from the vehicle tunnel because of the external loads and the high internal water pressure during the tunnel's service life, full-scale joint tests were conducted. The main advantage of the joint tests over previous ones was the definiteness of the loads applied to the joints using a unique testing facility and the acquisition of the mechanical behavior of actual joints. Furthermore, based on the test results and the theoretical analysis, a mechanical model of segment joints has been proposed, which consists of all important influencing factors, including the elastic-plastic behavior of concrete, the pre-tightening force of the bolts and the deformations of all joint components, i.e., concrete blocks, bolts and cast iron panels. Finally, the proposed mechanical model of segment joints has been verified by the aforementioned full-scale joint tests.

  • 기계학습에서 커널을 이용한 방법은 그 응용범위가 기계학습의 전반에 걸쳐 다양하게 이용되고 있으며, 그 성능 또한 기존의 방법들을 앞지르고 있다. 이는 기존의 비선형적 접근을 커널을 이용한 고차원 공간에서의 선형적 접근법으로 바꿈으로써 가능하게 되는 것이다. 다양한 분야에 적용되는 많은 커널들이 존재하며 각 커널들은 특별한 분야에 적용되기 쉽도록 다른 형태를 띠고 있기도 하지만, 커널로서 작용하기 위해 양한정 조건(positive definiteness)을 만족해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 DNA 문제에 직접 적용시킬 수 있는 방법으로서의 새로운 커널을 제시한다. 또한 매트로폴리스(Metropolis) 알고리즘을 이용하여 DNA의 hybridization과정을 모사함으로써 새로운 종류의 커널이 양한정(positive definite) 조건을 만족시킬 수 있는 방법을 제시한다. 새로 만들어진 커널이 행렬값을 형성해 나가는 과정을 살펴보면 인간이 예(instance)로부터 개념을 형성해 나가는 과정과 흡사한 양상을 보이는 것을 알 수 있다. 개념을 나타내는 좋은 예로서의 표본(prototype)으로부터 개념이 형성되어 가는 과정은 표본(prototype)이 아닌 예로부터 개념이 형성되는 과정과 다른 양상을 띠는 것과 같은 모양을 보인다.
