  • 본 연구는 도시 내 정주지에 조경수로 식재된 단풍나무(Acer palmatum Thunb.) 20본을 대상으로 로그(Log)와 일반화적률법(Generalized Method of Moments, GMM)에 의해 수목 부위별 탄소저장량 추정식을 개발하였다. 수목 부위별 탄소 농도는 줄기 목질부가 49.8%로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 줄기 수피는 46.5%로 가장 낮은 값을 보였다. 수목 부위별 탄소저장량을 종속변수로 하고 흉고직경(DBH), 흉고직경 제곱과 수고(DBH2×H)를 독립변수로 하는 상대생장식의 결정계수 (R2)는 줄기, 뿌리, 지상부, 임목 전체의 경우 Log 식은 0.7494~0.9036, GMM 상대생장식은 0.7085~0.8847 등으로 두 방법 사이에 큰 차이가 없었다. 그러나 가지나 잎의 상대생장식은 R2=0.3027~0.6380으로 두 방법 모두 매우 낮게 나타났다. 본 연구는 정주지 수목의 탄소저장량 추정을 위한 상대생장식 개발에 있어서 표본목 수가 작거나 상대생장식의 잔차 이분산성이 문제가 되는 경우 GMM 방법의 상대생장식을 이용할 수 있음을 보여주고 있다.

  • 본 연구에서는 우리나라 수위관측소들 중에서 관측 유량이 검증된 총 19개 유역을 선정하고 관측된 홍수량을 사용하여 적정 설계홍수량을 유도함으로써 우리나라의 설계홍수량 특성을 분석하였다. 대상유역별로 관측개시 년도에서부터 분석 시작년을 기준으로 1년씩 증가 시키는 점진적 구성 방식으로 연최대홍수량에 대한 빈도분석을 실시하기 위해, 변동특성을 이동평균법에 의해 분석하였다. 19개 대상유역에 대한 연최대홍수량 계열 구성기간별로 기본통치를 산정하고 독립성, 동질성 및 Outiler 검정을 실시하였다. Gumbel, Generalized Extreme Value, Generalized Logistic 및 Generalized Pareto 분포의 적합도 검정을 LH-모멘트비도와 Kolmogorov-Smirnov 검정에 의해 수행하였다. 적정 확률분포로 선정된 GEV 분포의 매개변수를 확률가중모멘트의 치수 변화에 의한 L, L1, L2, L3 및 L4-모멘트법에 의해 추정하고 대상유역 및 연최대홍수량 계열 구성 기간별 설계홍수량을 유도하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 변동률 분석에 따라 최근 지구온난화에 따른 우리나라 기후 변화를 고려한 적절한 수리구조물의 설계 조건변경시기는 2002년 전후로 하여야 할 것이다.

  • 기존의 광류 (Optical flow)는 국소적 처리를 시작점으로 하는 bottom-up수법에 의해서 구하였다. 이에 반해, 본 논문은 영상유체보존식과 함수 전개법에 의해 영상 전체의 움직임을 차수가 낮은 모드로 부터 순차적으로 전개하는 bottom-down수법을 새로운 수법으로 제안한다. 의료 영상에 있어서 명도는 움직임이 있어도 불변으로 유지하려는 경우가 많다. 그러나 이 같은 영상계열에서의 움직임은 좌표 변환에 의해서 대응된다. 본 수법의 경우 광류는 선형모멘트방정식의 함수에 관한 도함수를 이용하는 투영법에 의해서 반복계산으로 구하여 진다. 본 논문에서는 심장의 영상계열을 이용하여 기존의 Horn and Schunck기법, Standard multigrid기법과 본 수법의 알고리즘을 비교 평가하여 유효성을 나타낸다.

  • An IE-FFT algorithm is implemented and applied to the electromagnetic (EM) solution of perfect electric conducting (PEC) scattering problems. The solution of the method of moments (MoM), based on the magnetic field integral equation (MFIE), is obtained for PEC objects with closed surfaces. The IE-FFT algorithm uses a uniform Cartesian grid to apply a global fast Fourier transform (FFT), which leads to significantly reduce memory requirement and speed up CPU with an iterative solver. The IE-FFT algorithm utilizes two discretizations, one for the unknown induced surface current on the planar triangular patches of 3D arbitrary geometries and the other on a uniform Cartesian grid for interpolating the free-space Green's function. The uniform interpolation of the Green's functions allows for a global FFT for far-field interaction terms, and the near-field interaction terms should be adequately corrected. A 3D block-Toeplitz structure for the Lagrangian interpolation of the Green's function is proposed. The MFIE formulation with the IE-FFT algorithm, without the help of a preconditioner, is converged in certain iterations with a generalized minimal residual (GMRES) method. The complexity of the IE-FFT is found to be approximately $O(N^{1.5})$and $O(N^{1.5}logN)$ for memory requirements and CPU time, respectively.

  • The present article investigates empirically whether non-reciprocal trade preferences (NRTPs) offered by QUAD countries (Canada, the European Union, Japan, and the United States) to developing countries have helped to promote economic growth in the beneficiary countries. Two main blocks of NRTPs are considered here: Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) programs and other trade preferences programs. The analysis used a set of 90 beneficiary countries of NRTPs that are concurrently recipients of development aid over the period of 2002-2018. Using the two-step system generalized method of moments, the analysis indicated that while a higher degree of utilization of each of these two blocks of NRTPs has been associated with a high economic growth rate, development aid enhances this positive effect. This highlights the need for donors to support a development strategy based on the provision of both development aid and NRTPs if they are to help beneficiary countries to promote economic growth. Finally, when the positive economic growth effect of the utilization of NRTPs is higher, the result is a greater country's share of exports (under preferential tariffs) to QUAD countries out of their total merchandise exports.

  • In this article, we proposed a new three-parameter distribution called generalized half-logistic Poisson distribution with a failure rate function that can be increasing, decreasing or upside-down bathtub-shaped depending on its parameters. The new model extends the half-logistic Poisson distribution and has exponentiated half-logistic as its limiting distribution. A comprehensive mathematical and statistical treatment of the new distribution is provided. We provide an explicit expression for the $r^{th}$ moment, moment generating function, Shannon entropy and $R{\acute{e}}nyi$ entropy. The model parameter estimation was conducted via a maximum likelihood method; in addition, the existence and uniqueness of maximum likelihood estimations are analyzed under potential conditions. Finally, an application of the new distribution to a real dataset shows the flexibility and potentiality of the proposed distribution.

  • The study aims to empirically examine the determinants of bank margins from Pakistan, an emerging South Asian economy. To elucidate the importance of the Pakistani banking sector, secondary data has been used, which was extracted from the annual accounts of twenty-four Pakistani scheduled commercial banks (20 conventional, four full-fledged Islamic) over a sample period of 2006 to 2017. The factors identified in the dealership model and the subsequent empirical developments in the dealership model categorized as bank-specific, diversification, regulatory, and industry concentration are analyzed by applying the most-common linear dynamic panel-data estimator, the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimator, developed by Arellano and Bond (1991). The findings reveal that, among the bank-specific variables, funding cost, credit risk, managerial efficiency, market share, and operating cost are significant predictors of bank margins. For diversification variables employed in the study, both variables including net non-interest income and asset diversity are as well significant predictors of bank margins. It is also found that the market concentration variable proxied by the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) is significantly predicting bank margins. Subsequently, one of the regulatory variables, the opportunity cost of holding reserves, and one bank-specific variable, the degree of risk aversion, are insignificant in the model.

  • 본 연구는 1996년부터 2013년의 경제성장률의 변동성 데이터를 이용하여 아프리카 28개국의 경제적 안정성에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석한 것이다. 28개 아프리카 국가의 1996년 부터 2013년의 연도별 자료를 3년씩 따로 분류하여 총 6개의 시계열 자료를 구축하고 이를 토대로 패널 분석을 수행하였다. 송금 및 농업원조와 경제성장률의 변동성 간의 내생성 문제를 해결하기 위하여 system-GMM (system-Generalized Method of Moments)을 이용하였다. 분석결과 기후변화를 대표하는 요인 중 자연재해와 온도의 변동성만이 경제 안정성을 악화시키는 요인으로 나타났다. 반면 송금과 농업원조자금은 아프리카 국가들의 경제를 안정시키는 효과를 보이며, 특히 송금의 경우 자연재해 발생에 따른 경제 변동성을 감소시키는 보험의 역할을 하는 것으로 판단된다.

  • House ownership is considered as one of the important pre-conditions for marriage in China. Given that gender imbalance is a prominent issue in the country, competition for marriage partners might motivate males to look for a house and probably bigger and more expensive house. This is believed to have caused house price hikes in recent years. This study aims to investigate the impact of gender imbalance on house prices using data from 30 provinces in China for the 2000-2017 period. The results based on the generalized method of moments (GMM) estimations show that house price is strongly influenced by gender imbalance. However, there is no evidence to support differential effects across eastern and mid-western regions. One potential reason is that pre-marriage house ownership has become a common culture for the whole community and therefore it does not vary significantly across regions. There are several important policy implications. Firstly, the issues should be addressed by the policymakers at national level and not regional level. Secondly, the government should intervene to bring back gender ratio to its normal level. Finally, the government should limit the number of houses people can buy and increase the supply of houses in the market.

  • This study was conducted to derive the regional design rainfall by the regional frequency analysis based on the regionalization of the precipitation. Using the L-moment ratios and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the underlying regional probability distribution was identified to be the Generalized extreme value distribution among apt]lied distributions. regional and at-site parameters of the Generalized extreme value distribution were estimated by the method of L-moment. The regional and at-site analysis for the design rainfall were tested by Monte Carlo simulation. Relative root-mean-square error(RRMSE), relative bias(RBIAS) and relative reduction(RR) in RRMSE were computed and compared with those resulting from at-site Monte Carlo simulation. All show that the regional analysis procedure can substantially reduce the RRMSE, RBIAS and RR in RRMSE in the prediction of design rainfall. Consequently, optimal design rainfalls following the regions and consecutive durations were derived by the regional frequency analysis.
