This study is to suggest a methodology to overcome the uncertainty and lack of reliability of data. The fuzzy reasoning model and the neural network model were developed in order to overcome the potential lack of reliability which may occur during the process of data collection. According to the result of comparison with the Poisson regression model, the suggested models showed better performance in the accuracy of the accident frequency prediction. It means that the more accurate accident frequency prediction model can be developed by the process of the uncertainty of raw data and the adjustment of errors in data by learning. Among the suggested models, the performance of the neural network model was better than that of the fuzzy reasoning model. The suggested models can evaluate the safety of signalized intersections in operation and/or planning, and ultimately contribute the reduction of accidents.

With the data base subject of first grade paper test of information handling technician, We proposed special method of evaluating learning ability directivity to judge that student can understand the contents of each chapter exactly or not, using assigned function and fuzzy deduction in this thesis. Using fuzzy logic, the proposed method of evaluating learning ability is dividing the presenting frequency of setting questions for examination about the subject of database into three rank and we can define this as the important. We applied the fuzzy assigned rate about the number of times of studying through the important of studying and the fuzzy assigned rate about formative evaluation to each of nine fuzzy deduction theories and than evaluated comprehension rate of learning. With the fuzzy grade about learning comprehension of each chapter and assigned rate about the score of generalized evaluation; We applied these two thing to the deduction rule of fuzzy and made it as defuzzifier and finally evaluated learning. We made that the result of eventual evaluating learning is very useful for learners to diagnosis learned contents by themselves and also it can be great material to judge that learners can get the goal of learning or not synthetically.

In this paper, we go one step further in that the number of competitive layers is not determined by experience but can be determined by fuzzy control rules based on input pattern information. In our method, we design a set of membership functions and corresponding rules and used Max-Min reasoning proposed by Mamdani. Also, we use centroid method as a defuzzification. In experiment that has various patterns of English inputs, this new method works beautifully to determine the number of competitive layers and also efficient in overall accuracy as a result.

In this paper, the decision method of optimal sub-band which is supposed to embedded watermark incorporating fuzzy inference into transform-based watermarking is proposed. After performing the DCT, maximum variation of human visual properties, such as text degree, contrast sensitivity function is calculated, and by using these, membership function is generated. After embedding the watermark to the selected bands obtained from fuzzy inference, performance of imperceptibility and robustness are evaluated. In order to testify the proposed scheme, such attacks as JPEG, filtering, cropping are utilized. and in addition, by using an AWGN channel of OFDM/QPSK system, PSNR as well as correlation are calculated, and finally evaluated the performance.

New license plates have been used since 2007. This paper proposes a new license plate extraction method using a gray labeling and a fuzzy reasoning method. First, the proposed method extracts the candidate plates by the gray labeling which is the enhanced version of a non-recursive flood-filling algorithm. By newly designed fuzzy inference system. fitness of each candidate plates are calculated. Finally, the area of the license plate in a image is extracted as a region of the candidate label which has the highest fitness. In the experiments, various license plate images took from indoor/outdoor parking lot, street, etc. by digital camera or cellular phone were used and the proposed extraction method was showed remarkable results of a 94 percent success.

본 논문에서는 각 입력 변수에 대하여 퍼지 공간을 분할한 퍼지 집합 기반 퍼지 추론 시스템을 제안한다. 퍼지 모델은 주로 경험적 방법에 의해 추출되기 때문에 보다 구체적이고 체계적인 방법에 의한 동정 및 최적화 쥘 필요성이 요구된다. 정보 granules는 근접성, 유사성 또는 기능성 등의 기준에 의해 서로 결합된 물체(특히, 데이터 점)의 연결된 모임으로 간주된다. 정보 데이터의 특성을 살리기 위해 HCM 클러스터링 방법에 의한 중심71을 이용하여 각 입력 변수에 대한 퍼지 집합 기반 전반부/후반부 구조 및 파라미터를 동정한다. 퍼지 추론 방법은 간략 및 선형 퍼지 추론을 수행하며 삼각형 멤버쉽 함수를 사용한다. 구축된 퍼지 모델은 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 전반부 파라미터를 최적으로 동정하며, 학습 및 테스트 데이터의 성능 결과의 상호균형을 얻기 위한 하중값을 가진 성능지수를 사용하여 근사화와 예측성능의 향상을 꾀한다. 또한, 제안된 퍼지 모델은 수치적인 예를 통하여 성능을 평가한다.

In order to constructan ubiquitous computing environment, it is necessary to develop a technology that can recognize users and circumstances. In this regard, the question of recognizing and expressing user Context regardless of computer and language types has emerged as an important task under the heterogeneous distributed processing system. As a means to solve this task of representing user Context in the ubiquitous environment, this paper proposes to describe user Context as the most similar form of human thinking by using semantic web and fuzzy concept independentof language and computer types. Because the conventional method of representing Context using an usual collection has some limitations in expressing the environment of the real world, this paper has chosen to use Fuzzy OWL language, a fusion of fuzzy concept and standard web ontology language OWL. Accordingly, this paper suggests the following method. First we represent user contacted environmental information with a numerical value and states, and describe it with OWL. After that we transform the converted OWL Context into Fuzzy OWL. As a last step, we prove whether the automatic circumstances are possible in this procedure when we use fuzzy inference engine FiRE. With use the suggested method in this paper, we can describe Context which can be used in the ubiquitous computing environment. This method is more effective in expressing degree and status of the Context due to using fuzzy concept. Moreover, on the basis of the stated Context we can also infer the user contacted status of the environment. It is also possible to enable this system to function automatically in compliance with the inferred state.

There are many difficulties to the engineers in the assessment of tunnel safety. Consequently, objective assessment of concrete lining is hard even by the experts of tunnel assessment. Of several difficulties in the assessment of tunnel safety, in this study, tunnel concrete lining was focussed iud evaluated quantitatively and objectively using the Fuzzy theory which it generally considered to be appropriate for the assessment, control and judgment. T-FLAS based on fuzzy theory was developed in this study for the quantitative and objective assessment of the concrete lining in tunnels. Based on the application of T-FLAS on the evaluated field data, it was shown that the assessment system using fuzzy theory(T-FLAS) can be the effective and objective method for the assessment of concrete lining.

The performance of arrow from a manufacturing process depends on arrow's trajectory(archer's paradox) and intensity of an impact points. Especially, when conducting a shooting experiment over and over in the same experiment condition, the intensity of impact point is an objective standard to judge the performance of the arrow. However, the analysis method for the impact point is not enough, a previous research of the arrow's performance has been focused on a skill to optimize a manufacturing variables(feathers of an arrow, barb of an arrow, arrow's shaft, weight, external diameter, spine). In this paper, We propose measurement system of arrow's impact point with Mamdani fuzzy inference system and similarity of polygon for automation of impact point's measurement. Measuring the impact point data of the arrow moving with a high speed(approximately 275km/h) by using line laser and photo diode array, then the measured data are mapped to arrow's impact point with fuzzy inference and similarity of polygon.

In this paper, we propose a new inspection method that applies fuzzy reasoning method considering the difference of brightness and intensity of illumination by bend together. In the preprocessing phase, we compensate the degree of semiconductor images with bilinear interpolation and moment-rotation. Then we use fuzzy reasoning method with the difference of brightness from error region by pattern matching and the difference of intensity of illumination from bends. Then the result is difuzzified and applied to the final inspection process. In experiment which uses 30 real world semiconductors with strait shots and side shots, the proposed method successfully discard the false positive identified by conventional brightness comparison only method without any loss of misidentification.
