Background: Landscape metrics have been widely applied to quantifying the relationship between land surface temperature and urban spatial patterns and have received acceptable verification from landscape ecologists but some studies have shown their inaccurate results. The objective of the study is to compare landscape metrics and texture-based measures as alternative indices in measuring urban heterogeneity effects on LST at multiple scales. Results: The statistical results showed that the correlation between urban landscape heterogeneity and LST increased as the spatial extent (scale) of under-study landscapes increased. Overall, landscape metrics showed that the less fragmented, the more complex, larger, and the higher number of patches, the lower LST. The most significant relationship was seen between edge density (ED) and LST (r = - 0.47) at the sub-region scale. Texture measures showed a stronger relationship (R² = 34.84% on average) with LST than landscape metrics (R² = 15.33% on average) at all spatial scales, meaning that these measures had a greater ability to describe landscape heterogeneity than the landscape metrics. Conclusion: This study suggests alternative measures for overcoming landscape metrics shortcomings in estimating the effects of landscape heterogeneity on LST variations and gives land managers and urban planners new insights into urban design.

Educational applications of big data analysis have been of interest in order to improve learning effectiveness and efficiency. As a basic challenge for educational applications, the purpose of this study is to develop a comprehensive data set scheme for learning analytics in the context of digital textbook usage within the K-12 school environments of Korea. On the basis of the literature review, the Start-up Mega Planning model of needs assessment methodology was used as this study sought to come up with negotiated solutions for different stakeholders for a national level of learning metrics framework. The Ministry of Education (MOE), Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education (SMOE), and Korean Education and Research Information Service (KERIS) were involved in the discussion of the learning metrics framework scope. Finally, we suggest a proposal for the national learning metrics framework to reflect such considerations as dynamic education context and feasibility of the metrics into the K-12 Korean schools. The possibilities and limitations of the suggested framework for learning metrics are discussed and future areas of study are suggested.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of two representative subway map design types, namely a diagram type and a geographical type using physiological metrics, performance metrics, and self-reported metrics, which are representative usability metrics. Background: Subway maps need to be designed in order for users to quickly search and recognize subway line information. Although most cities' subway maps currently use the diagram type designed by Henry Beck, New York City's subway map has recently been changed to the subway map type combined with the geographical type designed by Michael Hertz. However, not many studies on its efficiency are found, and the studies that are available mainly depend on questionnaire surveys or take on a subjective behavioral study type based on experts' experiences. In this regard, evaluation through a more objective method is needed. Method: This study employed usability metrics as a method to evaluate the efficiency of information search targeting the diagram type and geographical type subway maps used mostly as subway maps. To this end, physiological metrics obtained through eye tracking, task completion time, representative metric of task performance, and subjective evaluation metrics were used for the suitability evaluation of subway map designs. Results: In the result of gaze movement distance analysis, no significant difference was shown in the two design types in terms of a process finding a departure station from the starting point and a process finding a transfer station between the departure station and arrival station (destination). However, the gaze movement distance in the process finding the arrival station at the departure station was significantly shorter in the geographical type, rather than in the diagram type. The analysis of task completion time showed a result similar to the gaze movement distance analysis result. Task completion time was significantly shorter in the geographical type, rather than in the diagram type, which is in the process finding the arrival station at the departure station. In other information search processes, no significant difference was shown. As a result of subjective evaluation metrics analysis, no significant difference was revealed in the two design types. Conclusion: An analysis on the two representative subway map design types was carried out via the adoption of usability metrics. As a result, although no significant difference was shown in some information search processes, it was revealed that information search was easier in the geographical type overall. Also, it was found that usability metrics can be effectively used to evaluate the design types of subway maps. Application: The study results can be used to set design direction to offer ease in information search on subway lines. The study also can be used as a method to evaluate a subway map's design type.

In this paper, we study Finsler metrics of constant S-curvature. First we produce infinitely many Randers metrics with non-zero (constant) S-curvature which have vanishing H-curvature. They are counterexamples to Theorem 1.2 in [20]. Then we show that the existence of (${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$)-metrics with arbitrary constant S-curvature in each dimension which is not Randers type by extending Li-Shen' construction.

The purpose of this paper is to present some fixed point results for nonself multivalued operators on a set with two metrics. In addition, a homotopy result for multivalued operators on a set with two metrics is given. The data dependence and the well-posedness of the fixed point problem are also discussed.

In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics called general (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-metrics, which are defined by a Riemannian metric ${\alpha}$ and a 1-form ${\beta}$. We show that every general (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-metric with isotropic Berwald curvature is either a Berwald metric or a Randers metric. Moreover, a lot of new isotropic Berwald general (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-metrics are constructed explicitly.

We investigate the properties of fuzzy relations, metrics and $\bigodot$-equivalence relation on a stsc quantale lattice L and a commutative cqm-lattice. In particular, pseudo-(quasi-) metrics induce $\bigodot$-(quasi)-equivalence relations.

온톨로지 모듈화에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있으며 이에 따라 다양한 방법으로 온톨로지를 모듈화하려는 시도들이 이루어져 왔다. 그러나 모듈화 과정을 통하여 생성된 온톨로지 모듈의 품질과 모듈화 일치성을 평가할 수 있는 공통된 기준인 평가 메트릭에 대한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 소프트웨어 메트릭 이론을 바탕으로 하여 온톨로지에 적합한 모듈 응집도와 결합도 메트릭을 제안한다. 새로이 제안하는 메트릭은 기존의 온톨로지 메트릭과 상이하게 온톨로지 모듈을 적용 대상으로 하며 모듈의 클래스가 다른 클래스와 형성하는 관계의 유형을 세분화시킴으로써 관계 유형에 따른 영향도를 각각 반영할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 제안한 메트릭의 검증을 위하여 메트릭 검증 프레임워크를 이용하여 이론적으로 타당성을 검증하고 웹 상의 온톨로지를 모듈화하여 적용하는 실증적 실험을 하였다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 온톨로지 모듈 응집도와 결합도 메트릭은 온톨로지 엔지니어들이 온톨로지 모듈과 모듈화 기법을 선택하여 사용하는 기준으로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

고품질의 소프트웨어를 개발하기 위하여, 소프트웨어의 품질을 측정하는 메트릭스가 활발히 개발되었고 근래에는 객체지향 메트릭스도 제시되고 있다. 그러나 개발 과정에서 품질을 관리하기 위하여 메트릭스를 이용하는 방법에 대한 연구는 제대로 이루어지고 있지 않다. 이는 개발 과정에서 적용되는 메트릭스의 의미를 전체적인 품질 관점에서 이해하기가 어렵기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 제품 특성을 기반으로 정의된 소프트웨어 품질 모형(H-SQM)을 이용하여 개발 과정에 소프트웨어 품질 메트릭스를 적용하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법에서는 H-SQM을 표현한 원인-결과 다이어그램을 공정분석도로 바꾼다. 공정분석도에 따라 개발 단계별로 소프트웨어 품질 메트릭스를 적용한다. 이러한 방법으로 개발 과정에서 소프트웨어의 품질을 효율적으로 개선해 나갈 수 있도록 메트릭스를 적용 할 수 있게 된다.
