Although former scholarly studies mostly focus on exploring leadership effectiveness under the traditional hierarchical leader-subordinate relationship, the research of leadership performance for non-hierarchical organizational structures, particularly the mediating factors of higher-order goals, trust-in-leader, and self-efficacy have been ignored. This study, therefore, makes an attempt to ascertain the impacts of transformational leadership on the performance of subordinates through the mediating effects of higher-order goals, trust-in-leader, and self-efficacy and the differences of these effects in the context of multi-level marketing (MLM). Like the small-sample studies adopted by Barling, Weber, and Kelloway [1996], Barling, Slater, and Kelloway [2000] and Bass, Avolio, Jung, and Berson [2003], this study adopts a sample of 123 MLM distributors of an MLM company in Hong Kong, with a high response rate of 80.4%. The results indicate that the mediating effect of self-efficacy between transformational leadership and performance is significant under non-hierarchical organizational structures such as MLM in China.

We consider a multigrid algorithm for higher order finite difference scheme for the Poisson problem on rectangular domain. Several smoothers including Jacobi, Red-black Gauss-Seidel are tested and compared. Since higher order scheme gives much more accurate result then 5-point scheme, one may use small number of levels with higher order scheme and thus the overall cost is reduced quite a lot. The numerical experiment compares the two cases.

The acoustic property of reactive type single expansion chamber can be analyzed by traditional plane wave theory. This theory can be applied in low frequency range and has good performance. But this theory can't include higher order modes, therefore another method is essential to analyze acoustic filter in high frequency range. Many researcher suggested the method that can concern higher order modes, and their methods are using mode matching technique. But there is no method that can be applied to the analysis of single expansion chamber with arbitrary inlet/outlet duct position and numbers of higher order modes of inlet/outlet duct and middle chamber. In this paper, the method which can analyze single expansion chamber with arbitrary inlet/outlet duct position and numbers of higher order modes of inlet/outlet duct and middle chamber using fundamental mode matching technique, was suggested and the predictions by this method was compared with those by the finite element method, and the influence of inlet/outlet location to acoustic performance of single expansion chamber is investigated and explained by higher order mode effects.

This paper proposes a high-performance VLSl architecture using distributed arithmetic for higher-order FIR filters with complex coefficients. For the purpose of realizing high sampling rate with small latency in high-order filters, we apply distributed arithmetic[1］. Moreover, in order to decrease drastically the power dissipation, the structure applying not ROM's but optimum function circuits which we have previously proposed, is utilized［2]［3］. However, this structure increases in the number of adders as compared to the conventional structure applying ROM's. In order to realize a more effective method for further higher-order filter, we propose newly an implementation applying two methods which have large effects on the unit using the adders. First , we propose an implementation applying SFAs(Serial Full Adders) and SFSs(Serial Full Subtractors). Second, we propose a structure applying proposed 4-2 adders. Finally, it is shown that the proposed architecture is an effective way to realize low power dissipation and small latency while the sampling rate is kept constant for further higher-order filters with complex coefficients.

An instantaneous amplitude (IA) estimator using the symmetric higher order differential energy operator is proposed. The amplitude estimator and the instantaneous frequency (IF) estimator based on the symmetric higher order differential energy operator coincide with the analyzed signal in time, and they show better estimation results than the IA and IF based on the higher order differential energy operator. Various IF and IA estimators are applied to AM-FM signals for the performance comparison. Among the IF and IA estimators, the IF and IA estimators based on the symmetric higher order energy operator show the best estimation accuracy. Then, the IA and IF estimators are applied to the distorted power line signal to show their usefulness as power disturbance detectors.

음성 신호 처리에 널리사용되어 온 2차 통계에 의한 음성 분석 방법은 잡음 환경에서 성능이 크게 저하되는 단점을 지닌다. 이에 반하여 고차 통계 방법은 Gaussian 잡음 등을 억제하는 특성을 가지고 있어서 잡음 환경에 상대적으로 강인한 음성 특징 추출을 가능하게 한다. 본 논문에서는 고차 통계에 의한 음성 분석 방법을 이용하여 백색 및 유색 잡음 환경에서의 문맥 독립형(text-independent) 화자식별 시스템을 제안하고, 기존의 2차 통계에 의한 방식과 성능을 비교하였다. 본 논문에서의 화자식별 시스템은 벡터 양자화 방법에 기반을 두고 있으며, 고차 통계 방법에 의한 유성음/무성음 판별을 통해 non-Gaussian 특징을 가지면서도 화자 정보가 집중되어 있는 유성음 부분에 대해서만 음성 특징을 추출하여 인식에 사용하였다. 50명의 화자를 대상으로 한 화자식별 실험 결과, 고차 통계 방법이 2차 통계에 의한 방법보다 잡음 환경에서 상대적으로 우수한 인식 성능을 나타냄을 확인하였다.

The instantaneous amplitude (IA) based on the higher order differential energy operator is proposed. And its general form for arbitrary order is also proposed. The various definitions of the IA and the instantaneous frequency (IF) estimators are considered. The IA and IF estimators based on the energy operators need less computational cost than the conventional IF and IA estimators exploiting the Hilbert transform. The IF and IA estimators are compared in terms of the frequency and amplitude tracking accuracy of the AM-FM signals. For noiseless case, the IA and IF estimators based on the Teager-Kaiser energy operator show better tracking performance than the IF and IA estimators based on the higher energy operators. However, under noisy condition, the IF and IA estimator based on the higher order energy operators with the order 3 and 4 show better tracking than the Teager-Kaiser energy based estimators. The IF and IA estimators are applied to signals in the various power anomalies to show their usefulness as the disturbance detectors.

The adsorption performance of lead ion was studied using five zeolites (Na-P1, sodalite (SOD), analcime (ANA), nepheline hydrate (JBW), cancrinite (CAN)) synthesized from Jeju scoria. The adsorption performances of lead ion decreased in the order of Na-P1 > SOD > ANA > JBW > CAN. These results showed that the synthetic zeolite with a higher cationic exchange capacity showed a higher adsorption performance. The uptake of lead ion by synthetic zeolites were described by Freundlich model better than Langmuir model. The adsorption kinetics of lead ion by synthetic zeolites fitted the pseudo 2nd order kinetics better than pseudo 1st order kinetics. The effective diffusion coefficients of lead ion by synthetic zeolites were ten times higher than the zeolite A synthesized from coal fly ash.

Bayesian SPECT 영상재구성에 있어서 정교한 형태의 사전정보를 사용할 경우 bias 및 variance와 같은 통계적 차원에서의 정량적 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다. 특히, "thin plate" 와 같은 고차의 smoothing 사전정보는 "membrane"과 같은 일반적인 다른 사전 정보에 비해 bias를 개선시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나, 이와 같은 장점은 영상재구성 알고리즘에 내재하는 hyperparameters의 값을 최적으로 선택하였을 경우에만 적용된다. 본 연구에서는 thin plate와 membrane의 두가지 대표적인 사전정보를 포함하는 영상재구성 알고리즘의 정량적 성능에 대해 집중 고찰한다. 즉, 알고리즘에 내재하는 hyperparameters 가 통계적 차원에서 bias와 variance에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 관찰한다. 실험에서 Monte Carlo noise trials를 사용하여 bias와 variance를 계산하며, 각 결과를 ML-EM 및 filtered backprojection으로부터 얻어진 bias 및 variance와 비교한다. 결론적으로 thin plate와 같은 고차의 사전정보는 hyperparameters의 선택에 민감하지 않으며, hyperparameters 값의 전 범위에 걸쳐 bias를 개선시킴을 보인다. 걸쳐 bias를 개선시킴을 보인다.
