This study was conducted to develop a model for predicting the length of stay for premature infants through machine learning. For the development of this model, 6,149 cases of premature infants discharged from the hospital from 2011 to 2016 of the discharge injury in-depth survey data collected by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention were used. The neural network model of the initial hospitalization was superior to other models with an explanatory power (R²) of 0.75. In the model added by converting the clinical diagnosis to CCS(Clinical class ification software), the explanatory power (R²) of the cubist model was 0.81, which was superior to the random forest, gradient boost, neural network, and penalty regression models. In this study, using national data, a model for predicting the length of stay for premature infants was presented through machine learning and its applicability was confirmed. However, due to the lack of clinical information and parental information, additional research is needed to improve future performance.

Speculative execution for improving instruction-level parallelism is widely used in high-performance processors. In the speculative execution technique, the most important factor is the accuracy of branch predictor. Unfortunately, complex branch predictors for improving the accuracy can cause serious thermal problems in 3D multicore processors. Thermal problems have negative impact on the processor performance. This paper analyzes two methods to solve the thermal problems in the branch predictor of 3D multi-core processors. First method is dynamic thermal management which turns off the execution of the branch predictor when the temperature of the branch predictor exceeds the threshold. Second method is thermal-aware branch predictor placement policy by considering each layer's temperature in 3D multi-core processors. According to our evaluation, the branch predictor placement policy shows that average temperature is $87.69^{\circ}C$, and average maximum temperature gradient is $11.17^{\circ}C$. And, dynamic thermal management shows that average temperature is $89.64^{\circ}C$ and average maximum temperature gradient is $17.62^{\circ}C$. Proposed branch predictor placement policy has superior thermal efficiency than the dynamic thermal management. In the perspective of performance, the proposed branch predictor placement policy degrades the performance by 3.61%, while the dynamic thermal management degrades the performance by 27.66%.

Interest in $PM_{10}$ concentrations have increased greatly in Korea due to recent increases in air pollution levels. Therefore, we consider a forecasting model for next day $PM_{10}$ concentration based on the principal elements of air pollution, weather information and Beijing $PM_{2.5}$. If we can forecast the next day $PM_{10}$ concentration level accurately, we believe that this forecasting can be useful for policy makers and public. This paper is intended to help forecast a daily mean $PM_{10}$, a daily max $PM_{10}$ and four stages of $PM_{10}$ provided by the Ministry of Environment using various data mining techniques. We use seven models to forecast the daily $PM_{10}$, which include five regression models (linear regression, Randomforest, gradient boosting, support vector machine, neural network), and two time series models (ARIMA, ARFIMA). As a result, the linear regression model performs the best in the $PM_{10}$ concentration forecast and the linear regression and Randomforest model performs the best in the $PM_{10}$ class forecast. The results also indicate that the $PM_{10}$ in Seoul is influenced by Beijing $PM_{2.5}$ and air pollution from power stations in the west coast.

In the future, various products are created in various fields using artificial intelligence. In this age, it is a very important problem to know the operation principle of artificial intelligence learning method and to use it correctly. This paper introduces artificial intelligence learning methods that have been known so far. Learning of artificial intelligence is based on the fixed point iteration method of mathematics. The GD(Gradient Descent) method, which adjusts the convergence speed based on the fixed point iteration method, the Momentum method to summate the amount of gradient, and finally, the Adam method that mixed these methods. This paper describes the advantages and disadvantages of each method. In particularly, the Adam method having adaptivity controls learning ability of machine learning. And we analyze how these methods affect digital signals. The changes in the learning process of digital signals are the basis of accurate application and accurate judgment in the future work and research using artificial intelligence.

Recently, research on predicting the treatment results of diseases using deep learning technology is also active in the medical community. However, small patient data and specific deep learning algorithms were selected and utilized, and research was conducted to show meaningful results under specific conditions. In this study, in order to generalize the research results, patients were further expanded and subdivided to derive the results of a study predicting mortality after lung cancer diagnosis for men and women in their 80s, 90s, and 100s. Using AutoML, which provides large-scale medical information and various deep learning algorithms from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, five algorithms such as Decision Tree, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, XGBoost, and Logistic Registration were created to predict mortality rates for 84 months after lung cancer diagnosis. As a result of the study, men in their 80s and 90s had a higher mortality prediction rate than women, and women in their 100s had a higher mortality prediction rate than men. And the factor that has the greatest influence on the mortality rate was analyzed as the treatment period.

As a preliminary test for defining intact yellow croaker pigment, the pigment was analyzed by column chromatography and UV-vis spectrophotometry. All maximum absorbance wavelengths commonly showed three maximum absorbance ranges, similar to those of carotenoid, suggesting that the tested pigment may be carotenoid. We detected total six peak RT values in the chromatogram through PDA-HPLC under gradient mode (behavior A at 10% for initial 2 min and changed to behavior B for 60 min). Most pigments were detected at the peak with 3.27 RT value. Because seven peaks were detected under gradient mode and three under isocratic mode [methanol : methylene chloride (90 : 10, v/v)], gradient mode was determined to be more appropriate for quantitative analysis. By the comparison test of RT values among yellow pigment in croakers and reference pigments, such as zeaxanthine, ${\beta}-cryptoxanthine$, ${\beta}-carotene$, and astaxanthin, only ${\beta}-cryptoxanthine$ was detected in the white croaker, whereas such pigment of yellow croaker having RT value of 31.02 was not detected. Therefore, RT value was found to be applicable for detecting adulterated croaker.

We consider discrete-time factorial Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) in multiple decision-makers environment for infinite horizon average reward criterion with a general joint reward structure but a factorial joint state transition structure. We introduce the "localization" concept that a global MDP is localized for each agent such that each agent needs to consider a local MDP defined only with its own state and action spaces. Based on that, we present a gradient-ascent like iterative distributed algorithm that converges to a local optimal solution of the global MDP. The solution is an autonomous joint policy in that each agent's decision is based on only its local state.cal state.

최근에 인공지능 분야에서는, 국내외적으로 강화학습(reinforcement learning)에 관한 관심이 크게 증폭되고 있다. 강화학습의 최근 경향을 살펴보면, 크게 가치함수를 직접 활용하는 방법(value function-based methods), 제어 전략에 대한 탐색을 활용하는 방법(policy search methods), 그리고 액터-크리틱 방법(actor-critic methods)의 세가지 방향으로 발전하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이중 세 번째 부류인 액터-크리틱 방법 중 NAC(natural actor-critic) 기법의 한 종류인 RLS-NAC(recursive least-squares based natural actor-critic) 알고리즘을 다양한 트레이스 감쇠계수를 사용하여 연속제어입력(real-valued control inputs)으로 제어되는 Kimura의 기는 로봇에 대해 적용해보고, 그 성능을 기존의 SGA(stochastic gradient ascent) 알고리즘을 이용하여 학습한 경우와 비교해보도록 한다.
