This study investigates the uplift capacity of a single vertical belled pile buried at shallow depth in dry sand. The laboratory model experiments are conducted with different pile-tip angles and relative densities. In addition, image and FEM analyses are performed to observe the failure surface of the belled pile for different pile-tip angles and relative densities. Accordingly, the uplift capacity and failure angle in the failure surface of the belled pile were found to depend on the belled pile-tip angle and relative density. A predictive model for the uplift capacity of the belled pile was proposed considering the relative density and belled pile-tip angle based on a previous limit equilibrium equation. To validate the applicability of the proposed model, the values calculated using the proposed and previous models were compared to those obtained through a laboratory model experiment. The proposed model had the best agreement with the laboratory model experiment.

We report the first steps of a collaborative project between the University of Queensland, Polyflow, Michelin, SK Chemicals, and RMIT University, on simulation, validation and application of a recently introduced constitutive model designed to describe branched polymers. Whereas much progress has been made on predicting the complex flow behaviour of many - in particular linear - polymers, it sometimes appears difficult to predict simultaneously shear thinning and extensional strain hardening behaviour using traditional constitutive models. Recently a new viscoelastic model based on molecular topology, was proposed by McLeish and carson (1998). We explore the predictive power of a differential multi-mode version of the porn-pom model for the flow behaviour of two commercial polymer melts: a (long-chain branched) low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and a (linear) high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The model responses are compared to elongational recovery experiments published by Langouche and Debbaut (19c99), and start-up of simple shear flow, stress relaxation after simple and reverse step strain experiments carried out in our laboratory.

When a statistical model has a hierarchical structure such as multilayer perceptrons in neural networks or Gaussian mixture density representation, the model includes distribution with unidentifiable parameters when the structure becomes redundant. Since the exact structure is unknown, we need to carry out statistical estimation or learning of parameters in such a model. From the geometrical point of view, distributions specified by unidentifiable parameters become a singular point in the parameter space. The problem has been remarked in many statistical models, and strange behaviors of the likelihood ratio statistics, when the null hypothesis is at a singular point, have been analyzed so far. The present paper studies asymptotic behaviors of the maximum likelihood estimator and the Bayesian predictive estimator, by using a simple cone model, and show that they are completely different from regular statistical models where the Cramer-Rao paradigm holds. At singularities, the Fisher information metric degenerates, implying that the cramer-Rao paradigm does no more hold, and that he classical model selection theory such as AIC and MDL cannot be applied. This paper is a first step to establish a new theory for analyzing the accuracy of estimation or learning at around singularities.

Background: Race and ethnicity are significant factors in predicting survival time of breast cancer patients. In this study, we applied advanced statistical methods to predict the survival of White non-Hispanic female breast cancer patients, who were diagnosed between the years 1973 and 2009 in the United States (U.S.). Materials and Methods: Demographic data from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database were used for the purpose of this study. Nine states were randomly selected from 12 U.S. cancer registries. A stratified random sampling method was used to select 2,000 female breast cancer patients from these nine states. We compared four types of advanced statistical probability models to identify the best-fit model for the White non-Hispanic female breast cancer survival data. Three model building criterion were used to measure and compare goodness of fit of the models. These include Akaike Information Criteria (AIC), Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC), and Deviance Information Criteria (DIC). In addition, we used a novel Bayesian method and the Markov Chain Monte Carlo technique to determine the posterior density function of the parameters. After evaluating the model parameters, we selected the model having the lowest DIC value. Using this Bayesian method, we derived the predictive survival density for future survival time and its related inferences. Results: The analytical sample of White non-Hispanic women included 2,000 breast cancer cases from the SEER database (1973-2009). The majority of cases were married (55.2%), the mean age of diagnosis was 63.61 years (SD = 14.24) and the mean survival time was 84 months (SD = 35.01). After comparing the four statistical models, results suggested that the exponentiated Weibull model (DIC= 19818.220) was a better fit for White non-Hispanic females' breast cancer survival data. This model predicted the survival times (in months) for White non-Hispanic women after implementation of precise estimates of the model parameters. Conclusions: By using modern model building criteria, we determined that the data best fit the exponentiated Weibull model. We incorporated precise estimates of the parameter into the predictive model and evaluated the survival inference for the White non-Hispanic female population. This method of analysis will assist researchers in making scientific and clinical conclusions when assessing survival time of breast cancer patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the risk of cropland and man-made infrastructures in a landslide-prone area using a GIS-based method. To achieve this goal, a landslide inventory map was prepared based on aerial photograph analysis as well as field observations. A total of 550 landslides have been counted in the entire study area. For model analysis and validation, extracted landslides were randomly selected and divided into two groups. The landslide causative factors such as slope, aspect, curvature, topographic wetness index, elevation, forest type, forest crown density, geology, land-use, soil drainage, and soil texture were used in the analysis. Moreover, to identify the correlation between landslides and causative factors, pixels were divided into several classes and frequency ratio was also extracted. A landslide susceptibility map was constructed using a bayesian predictive model (BPM) based on the entire events. In the cross validation process, the landslide susceptibility map as well as observation data were plotted with a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve then the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated and tried to extract a success rate curve. The results showed that, the BPM produced 85.8% accuracy. We believed that the model was acceptable for the landslide susceptibility analysis of the study area. In addition, for risk assessment, monetary value (local) and vulnerability scale were added for each social thematic data layers, which were then converted into US dollar considering landslide occurrence time. Moreover, the total number of the study area pixels and predictive landslide affected pixels were considered for making a probability table. Matching with the affected number, 5,000 landslide pixels were assumed to run for final calculation. Based on the result, cropland showed the estimated total risk as US $ 35.4 million and man-made infrastructure risk amounted to US $ 39.3 million.

본 연구는 냉장돈육에서의 식중독 원인균이면서 냉장온도에서 성장이 가능한 병원성균인 L. monocytogenes에 대한 적절한 위생관리를 제시하기 위하여 포장돈육 작업장 원료돈육에서 분리된 야생균주 L. monocytogenes 이용하여 돈육포장공정 및 유통조건에서의 L. mnocytogenes에 대한 성장예측모델을 제시하고자 실시하였다. 성장실험은 온도 5, 10, 15, $20^{\circ}C$ 시간은 0, 1, 2, 3, 18, 48, 120시간에서 실시하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 온도별 Gompertz value인 A, C, B, M의 값과 Growth kinetic인 exponential growth rate(EGR), generation time(GT), lag phase duration(LPD), maximum population density(MPD)를 산출하였다. GT, LPD는 온도가 상승할수록 그 값이 점점 낮아지는 경향을 나타났으며, EGR의 경우는 반대로 온도가 높아질수록 점점 높아지는 경향을 나타냈다. Gompertz value중 B와 M 값을 이용하여 온도를 주요 control factor로 선정한 반응표면분석(Response surface analysis)을 실시하여 온도에 따른 다항식을 산출하였고 이 식을 Gompertz 식에 적용하여 온도와 시간에 따른 냉장돈육에서의 L. monocytogenes에 대한 성장정도를 예측할 수 있는 성장예측모델을 제시하였다. 개발된 성장예측모델에 대한 검증은 GT, LPD, EGR에 대한 실험값과 예측값의 비교를 통하여 실시하였으며, 그 결과 GT, LPD, EGR 모두 통계적으로 유의하게 나타났다(p<0.01). 따라서 이 모델은 risk assessment 중 exposure assessment를 위한 성장예측모델로 충분히 이용가능 한 것으로 보이며, 추후 냉장돈육 위성관리기준에 대한 과학적 근거자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

최근 국내‧외적으로 많은 지진이 발생하고 있는 상황에서, 우리나라의 건물은 내진설계 및 지진피해에 매우 취약한 상황이다. 따라서 현 연구의 목적은 건물에 대한 지진취약도 등급화 및 위험건물 밀도분석을 수행하는 효과적인 방법을 발굴하고 이를 모델화하여, 시범지역(서울시)자료를 활용해 검증해 보는데 있다. 이를 위해 활용된 두 가지 모델링 기법 중, 통계 분석 기법의 예측정확도는 87%였고, 머신러닝 기법은 Random Forest모델의 예측정확도가 가장 높았으며, 해당 모델의 Test Set 정확도는 97.1%로 도출되었다. 분석결과, 구별 등급화 결과는 광진구와 송파구가 상대적으로 위험하다고 예측되었으며, 위험건물 밀도분석은 서초구, 관악구, 강서구가 상대적으로 위험하다고 예측되었다. 최종적으로, 통계분석 기법을 활용한 분석결과가 머신러닝 기법을 활용한 분석결과보다 위험하게 도출되었으나, 우리나라에서는 지진 강도 6.5(MMI)가 내진설계의 기준인데, 서울시 건물의 약 18.9%가 내진설계 되어있는 것으로 확인된 것을 고려하면, 머신러닝 기법의 결과가 더 정확할 것으로 예측되었다. 현 연구는 인구 및 인프라와 경찰서, 소방서 등을 고려 않은 오직 건물만을 고려한 한계점이 있으며, 해당 한계를 포함해 수행하면 더욱 포괄적인 연구가 될 것이다.
