  • The objective of this short communication is to introduce several evaluation methods to crop model users because the evaluation of crop model performance is an important step to develop or select crop model. In this paper, mean error, mean absolute error, index of agreement, root mean square error, efficiency of model, accuracy factor and bias factor were explained and compared in terms of dimension and observed number. Efficiency of model and index of agreement are dimensionless and independent of number of observation. Relative root mean square, accuracy factor and bias factor are dimensionless and not independent of number of observation. Mean error and mean absolute error are affected by dimension and number of observation.

  • We investigated the quality of 12 commercial salted and fermented anchovy Engraulis japonicas sauces by measuring their chemical compositions, bacteria concentrations, and biogenic amine contents. The sauces had a moisture content of 67.13-69.83% (mean: 68.17%), salinity of 20.00-25.84% (mean: 22.29%), pH of 5.14-6.28 (mean: 5.63), volatile basic nitrogen content of 119.12-273.37 mg/100 g (mean: 199.19 mg/100 g), total nitrogen content of 0.82-1.50% (mean: 1.30%) and amino nitrogen content of 550.17-1,086.62 mg/100 g (mean: 774.99 mg/100 g). The viable cell counts ranged from not detected to $1.6{\times}10^3CFU/mL$, and the number of biogenic amine-forming bacteria was very low or undetectable. The tested samples contained 372.32-2,111,61 mg/kg (mean 813.48 mg/kg) histamine, 29.62-144.29 mg/kg (mean 98.14 mg/kg) cadaverine, 87.89-530.84 mg/kg (mean 329.91 mg/kg) tryptamine, 20.89-127.17 mg/kg (mean 60.49 mg/kg) putrescine, and 13.08-109.91 mg/kg (mean 57.74 mg/kg) tyramine. Whereas no spermidine or spermine was detected in any sample. These results strongly suggest the necessary of monitoring the biogenic amine contents of commercial salted and fermented anchovy sauces carefully to ensure consumer health.

  • It is very important to know mean and confidence interval of water-quality constituents such as BOD for water-quality control and management of rivers and reservoirs effectively. The mean and confidence interval of BOD at Anseong2 and Hwangguji3 sampling stations which are located at the border of local governments in Anseong Stream were estimated and analyzed in this paper using Bootstrap technique which is one of non-parametric statistics. The results of Bootstrap were compared with arithmetic mean, geometric mean, Biweight method mean as a point estimator and distribution mean came from the appropriate probability distribution of Log-normal. In Bootstrap technique 12 data set was randomly selected in each year and 1000 samples was produced to get parameter of population. Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) of Microsoft Excel was utilized in Bootstrap. It was revealed that the Bootstrap technique can be used to explain more rigorously and robustly the achievement or violation of BOD target concentration in Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL).

  • The atomizing characteristics in a spray injected from a twin fluid atomization nozzle have been investigated. The Sauter mean diameters as mean diameter are compared with wavelength calculated from the instability theory. The Sauter mean diameter are measured by the Fraunhofer diffraction theory using the Malvern particle sizer. The wavelength is calculated using the mean relative velocity instead of the exit relative velocity of nozzle. Also shadowgraphy technique is used to visualize atomization phenomena. This paper gives a possibility that the mean diameter can be predicted with the wavelength obtained by the simple instability theory.

  • This paper presents a convergence analysis of the stocastic gradient adaptive algorithm based on the least mean absolute third (LMAT) error criteriohn. Under the assumption that the signals involved are zero-mean, wide-sense sateionaryand gaussian, a set of nonlinear difference equations that characterizes the mean and mean-squared behavior of the algorithm is derived. Computer simulation resutls show fairly good agreements between the theoetical and empirical behaviors of the algorithm.

  • Mean-Shift 영상 분할은 객체 검출을 위한 영상 전처리 방법으로써, 영상 처리 및 패턴 인식 분야에서 널리 사용되는 방법이다. 영상 분할은 영역 기반과 에지 기반 방식으로 나누어지며 대표적으로 FCM, Quickshift, Felzenszwalb, SLIC 알고리즘 등 이 있다. 언급한 영상 분할 방법들은 Mean-Shift 영상 분할에 비해서 빠른 속도로 실행시킬 수 있지만, 형태적 특징이 훼손되고 하나의 객체가 여러 세그멘테이션으로 분할된다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 소형 객체를 탐지하기 위한 고속화된 Mean-Shift 영상 분할과 객체의 형태적 특징을 이용하여 객체를 탐지하는 방법을 제안한다. 하드웨어 리소스가 제한된 신호처리기에 제안하는 알고리즘을 수행하기 위하여 Mean-Shift 영상 분할에서 필터링 과정을 고속화 하였고, 적외선 영상 내 영상 전처리 수행을 통해 잡음 제거 후 Mean-Shift 영상 분할 방법을 수행함으로써, 객체의 형태적 특징을 잘 살려서 영상 분할을 할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 각 세그멘테이션의 크기, 너비, 높이, 밝기 정보와 형태적 특징점을 이용한 객체 탐지 방법을 제안한다.
