The recommender system is a typical software solution for personalized services which are now popular in e-commerce sites. Most of the existing recommender systems are based on customers' explicit rating data on items (e.g., ratings on movies), and it is only recently that recommender systems based on implicit ratings have been proposed as a better alternative. Implicit ratings of a customer on those items that are clicked but not purchased can be inferred from the customer's navigational and behavioral patterns. In this article, a dimensionality reduction (DR) technique is newly applied to the implicit rating-based recommender system, and its effectiveness is assessed using an experimental e-commerce site. The experimental results indicate that the performance of the proposed approach is superior or at least similar to the conventional collaborative filtering (CF)-based approach unless the number of recommended products is 'large.' In addition, the proposed approach requires less memory space and is computationally more efficient.

본 연구에서는 주기적 비정상 유동 해석을 위해 푸리에 변환을 이용하는 조화 균형법의 효율적인 해법을 제안한다. 내재적으로 유속항을 처리하고 외재적으로 조화 원천항을 처리하였다. 외재적 조화 균형법 보다 더 빠르게 수렴 시킬 수 있으며 내재적 조화 균형법을 적용할 때 추가되는 자코비안 행렬을 처리할 필요가 없다. 또한 완전 내재적 기법에 상응하는 수준의 수렴안정성을 확인할 수 있었다. 2차원 비정상 유동 문제로 피칭하는 NACA0012 익형에 적용하였으며 이중 시간 적분법 및 외재적 Runge-Kutta기법의 해와 매우 일치하는 결과를 얻었다.

This article deals with implementation of a high-order finite difference scheme for numerical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on curvilinear grids. The numerical scheme is based on pseudo-compressibility approach. A fifth-order upwind compact scheme is used to approximate the inviscid fluxes while the discretization of metric and viscous terms is accomplished using sixth-order central compact scheme. An implicit Euler method is used for discretization of the pseudo-time derivative to obtain the steady-state solution. The resulting block tridiagonal matrix system is solved by approximate factorization based alternating direction implicit scheme (AF-ADI) which consists of an alternate sweep in each direction for every pseudo-time step. The convergence and efficiency of the method are evaluated by solving some 2D benchmark problems. Finally, computed results are compared with numerical results in the literature and a good agreement is observed.

A special class of exponential dispersion models is the class of Tweedie distributions. This class is very significant in statistical modeling as it includes a number of familiar distributions such as Gaussian, Gamma and compound Poisson. A Tweedie distribution has a power parameter p, a mean m and a dispersion parameter 𝜙. The value of the power parameter lies in identifying the corresponding distribution of the Tweedie family. The basic objective of this research work resides in investigating the existence of the implicit estimator of the power parameter of the Tweedie distribution. A necessary and sufficient condition on the mean parameter m, suggesting that the implicit estimator of the power parameter p exists, was established and we provided some asymptotic properties of this estimator.

In order to fill the holes with complex shapes in the large polygon model, a new approach which is based on the implicit surface interpolation method combined with domain decomposition method is presented. In the present study, a surface is constructed by creating smooth implicit surface from the incomplete polygon model through which the surface should pass. In the method an implicit surface is defined by a radial basis function, a continuous scalar-valued function over the domain $R^3$ The generated surface is the set of all points at which this scalar function takes on the value zero and is created by placing zero-valued constraints at the vertices of the polygon model. In this paper the well-known domain decomposition method is used in order to treat the large polygon model. The global domain of interest is divided into smaller domains where the problem can be solved locally. LU decomposition method is used to solve a set of small local problems and their local solutions are combined together using the weighting coefficients to obtain a global solution. In order to show the validity of the present study, various hole fillings are carried out fur the large and complex polygon model of arbitrary topology.

This discovery-oriented study explored 31 social workers' perceptions of discrepancies between explicit and implicit rules in their work places that are supposed to affect the quality of social work services, and identified eight categories of dilemmas: (a) confused accountability or purpose, (b) ambiguous principle, (c) improper authority, (d) confused role of social workers, (e) conflict between ideal and reality, (f) confused work ethics, (g) confused boundary of workers' rights, and (h) binds. These eight categories revealed the real philosophy and purposes of social work agencies, work ethics and values prevalent among social work agencies, agencies' orientation toward clients, and the conditions of social support from the society in large. Instead of searching for discrete variables as separately responsible for inefficient social work services, this approach probed malfunctioning implicit rules in a holistic context to see if inefficient or ineffective provision of social work services is a logical response to a much larger and deeper nexus. Insight into discrepant rules does not solely ensure the improvement of social work practice in the field, particularly if their identification is simply used as another opportunity to blame and avoid self-responsibility. However, such discrepancies between implicit and explicit rules are real enough to the staff workers and agency administrators that they may want to begin the dialogue of contradictory rules as a way of sanctioning discussion of previously forbidden topics. This study provided the ground-work for the dialogue.

This manuscript will discuss a numerical method where the six equations of two-phase flow, the solid heat conduction equations, and the two equations that describe neutron diffusion and precursor concentration are solved together in a tightly coupled, nonlinear fashion for a simplified model of a nuclear reactor core. This approach has two important advantages. The first advantage is a higher level of accuracy. Because the equations are solved together in a single nonlinear system, the solution is more accurate than the traditional "operator split" approach where the two-phase flow equations are solved first, the heat conduction is solved second and the neutron diffusion is solved third, limiting the temporal accuracy to $1^{st}$ order because the nonlinear coupling between the physics is handled explicitly. The second advantage of the method described in this manuscript is that the time step control in the fully implicit system can be based on the timescale of the solution rather than a stability-based time step restriction like the material Courant limit required of operator-split methods. In this work, a pilot code was used which employs this tightly coupled, fully implicit method to simulate a reactor core. Results are presented from a simulated control rod movement which show $2^{nd}$ order accuracy in time. Also described in this paper is a simulated rod ejection demonstrating how the fastest timescale of the problem can change between the state variables of neutronics, conduction and two-phase flow during the course of a transient.

효율적인 옷감 애니메이션 생성을 위해 암시적 적분법이 표준적 접근법으로 자리 잡았다. 이 기법은 시스템의 안정성이 보장되므로 큰 시간 간격을 사용할 수 있으며, 옷감 모델의 실시간 혹은 상호작용적 애니메이션을 위한 최선의 선택으로 받아들여지고 있다. 암시적 방법이 옷감 애니메이션에 도입된 이후 다양한 종류의 암시적 적분 기반 옷감 애니메이션 기법들이 제안되었으며 일반적인 PC 환경에서 수천 개의 질점을 가진 옷감 모델을 실시간에 시뮬레이션 할 수 있는 수준에 도달해 있다. 암시적 적분법이 안정성을 보장한다는 장점을 가지지만 명시적 기법에 비해 구현이 조금 더 복잡하며 병렬화가 어렵다는 문제를 가지고 있다. 암시적 적분법을 통해 옷감 애니메이션을 생성하는 것은 대규모 희소행렬을 가진 선형 시스템을 푸는 것으로 정형화된다. 본 논문에서는 암시적 적분법의 특성을 이용하여 안정적으로 복잡한 옷감 모델의 동작을 생성하면서도 매우 쉽게 병렬화가 가능한 기법을 제안한다. 옷감 애니메이션은 동작 시뮬레이션과 함께 자체충돌을 고려해야만 사실적인 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 그런데 자체충돌 감지 역시 중요한 계산상의 병목으로 작용한다. 본 논문에서는 효율적인 자체 충돌 처리 기법도 같이 제안한다.

Polarisation of biological and psychosocial aspects of psychiatry is nowadays main stream. Current knowledges of the interaction between biology and psychology make it possible to consider a truly integrative approach of the two aspects. Research findings suggest that the neuronal plasticity is the key mechanism to answer how the mental function work to an environmental stimuli and how the psychotherapeutic approach work on the brain. Advances in neuroscience research have led to a more sophisticated understanding of how psychotherapy may affect brain function. Even though there have been a tremendous efforts to find out the neurobiological mechanism of mental function, the answer is at best premature. In this article, research findings about of neuronal plasticity, implicit memory, animal studies which were associated with psychotherapy and psychological aspects were reviewed.

Human heart valves diseased by congenital heart defects, rheumatic fever, bacterial infection, cancer may cause stenosis or insufficiency in the valves. Treatment may be with medication but often involves valve repair or replacement (insertion of an artificial heart valve). Bileaflet mechanical heart valves (BMHVs) are widely implanted to replace the diseased heart valves, but still suffer from complications such as hemolysis, platelet activation, tissue overgrowth and device failure. These complications are closely related to both flow characteristics through the valves and leaflet dynamics. In this study, the physiological flow interacting with the moving leaflets in a bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BMHV) is simulated with a strongly coupled implicit fluid-structure interaction (FSI) method which is newly organized based on the Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) approach and the dynamic mesh method (remeshing) in FLUENT. The simulated results are in good agreement with previous experimental studies. This study shows the applicability of the present FSI model to the complicated physics interacting between fluid flow and moving boundary.
