PSC box girder bridges are built through the repetitive manufacturing process of concrete segment. However, during the initial segment manufacturing stage, design change may occur frequently due to design errors and interferences between components, resulting in the extension of segment manufacturing period. This paper aims to verify the manufacturing process of PSC box girder segment by 3D simulation technique. All the components of a segment were modelled and assembled by simulation technique and then, some design errors were found and revised appropriately to optimize the manufacturing process of segment. Consequently, 3D simulation technique would be promising to improve the quality of the segment and to reduce its manufacturing time and cost.

자율주행 차량의 주행형태 중 군집주행은 차량간 통신으로 연결된 2-5대 차량이 최소한의 안전거리만을 유지한 채 일정한 간격을 두고 주행하는 방식으로, 교통 운영효율성과 안전성을 향상시킬 수 있는 잠재력을 가지고 있다. 그러나 자율주행 및 군집주행이 교통류에 미치는 효과와 관련된 연구는 다수 수행된 바 있지만, 군집주행 도입 시 효과가 극대화될 수 있는 도로구간의 선정에 대한 연구는 미흡한 상황이다. 본 연구의 목적은 화물차 군집주행이 가능한 최적의 고속도로 구간을 선정하는데 초점을 맞추어 그 효과가 가장 클 것으로 예상되는 구간의 우선순위를 도출하는 것이다. 화물차 군집주행 적용구간 선정 평가항목으로는 화물차 사고율, 화물차 비율, 구간길이, 진출입 지점 수로 설정하였다. 각 평가항목의 중요도를 평가하기 위해 계층화 분석법을 적용하였다. 분석결과, 남해고속도로 사천IC-산인JC 46.9km 구간에 화물차 군집주행을 운영하는 것이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 도출된 결과는 향후 화물차 군집주행 시범 운영을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this letter, we study the protection problem in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks, and propose a novel dynamic heuristic algorithm called differentiated reliable segment protection (DRSP). Differing from previous work, DRSP can effectively avoid the trap problem and is able to find a feasible solution for each connection request. Therefore, DRSP outperforms the previous work. Simulation results have shown to be promising.

Fractal coding is a promising method for image compression, but it has not lived up to its promise as low bit-rate image compression scheme. The existing algorithms for finding self-mapping contractive transforms are computationally expensive and offer a poor rate-quality tradeoff. In this paper, we propose a segment based fractal coding. We classify the range blocks into shade, midrange or edge blocks, and segment edge block along the edge. And we apply midrange coding scheme for each segment. Our experiments show that our method gives better rate-qualty trade of than current fractal block coding methods.

An important aspect of video indexing is the ability to segment video into meaningful segments, i.e., content-based video segmentation. Since the audio signal in the sound track is synchronized with image sequences in the video program, a speech signal in the sound track can be used to segment video into meaningful segments. In this paper, we propose a new approach to content-based video segmentation. This approach uses closed caption to construct a recognition network for speech recognition. Accurate time information for video segmentation is then obtained from the speech recognition process. For the video segmentation experiment for TV news programs, we made 56 video summaries successfully from 57 TV news stories. It demonstrates that the proposed scheme is very promising for content-based video segmentation.

This research aims to develop a deep learning-based method that automatically detects and segments the defects on railroad surfaces to reduce the cost of visual inspection of the railroad. We developed our segmentation model by modifying a fully convolutional network model [1], a well-known segmentation model used for machine learning, to detect and segment railroad surface defects. The data used in this research are images of the railroad surface with one or more defect regions. Railroad images were cropped to a suitable size, considering the long height and relatively narrow width of the images. They were also normalized based on the variance and mean of the data images. Using these images, the suggested model was trained to segment the defect regions. The proposed method showed promising results in the segmentation of defects. We consider that the proposed method can facilitate decision-making about railroad maintenance, and potentially be applied for other analyses.

Electroencephalography (EEG) recordings taken during the perception of music tempo contain information that estimates the tempo of a music piece. If information about this tempo stimulus in EEG recordings can be extracted and classified, it can be effectively used to construct a music-based brain-computer interface. This study proposes a novel convolutional recurrent attention model (CRAM) to extract and classify features corresponding to tempo stimuli from EEG recordings of listeners who listened with concentration to the tempo of musics. The proposed CRAM is composed of six modules, namely, network inputs, two-dimensional convolutional bidirectional gated recurrent unit-based sample encoder, sample-level intuitive attention, segment encoder, segment-level intuitive attention, and softmax layer, to effectively model spatiotemporal features and improve the classification accuracy of tempo stimuli. To evaluate the proposed method's performance, we conducted experiments on two benchmark datasets. The proposed method achieves promising results, outperforming recent methods.

폴리(에틸렌 나프탈레이트) 공중합체를 합성하기 위하여 에틸렌글리콜과 함께 1,3-프로판디올을 혼합사용하여 폴리(에틸렌/프로필렌 나프탈레이트)를 합성하고 이를 유연 기판 소재로 적용하기 위한 물성을 살펴보았다. NMR 실험 결과, 에틸렌과 프로필렌 segment가 함께 공존하는 폴리(에틸렌/프로필렌 나프탈레이트)가 합성되었음을 확인하였다. 에틸렌과 함께 프로필렌 segment가 존재하는 경우 합성된 폴리에스터의 결정화가 일어나지 않으며 유리전이온도와 열분해온도는 감소함을 알 수 있다. 합성된 폴리(에틸/프로필렌 나프탈레이트)의 주사슬에 에틸렌 보다 상대적으로 긴 프로필렌이 공존함에 따라 주사슬 배향이 어려워 열팽창계수가 감소함에 따라 합성 시 1,3-프로판디올 첨가에 따른 다소간의 내열온도 감소에도 저수축 유연기판 소재로 적용 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

Objective: To assess segmental liver stiffness (LS) with MRI before and after endovascular intervention in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). Materials and Methods: Twenty-three patients (13 males and 10 females; mean age, 42.6 ± 12.6 years; age range, 31-56 years) with BCS as a primary liver disease were recruited for this study. Two consecutive magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) examinations were performed before the endovascular treatment. Fifteen patients who underwent endovascular intervention treatment also had follow-up MRE scans within three days after the procedure. LS was measured in three liver segments: the right posterior, right anterior, and left medial segments. Inter-reader and inter-exam repeatability were analyzed with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) and Bland-Altman analysis. Segmental LS and clinical characteristics before and after the intervention were also compared. Results: Within three days of the endovascular intervention, all three segmental LS values decreased: LS of the right posterior segment = 7.23 ± 0.88 kPa (before) vs. 4.94 ± 0.84 kPa (after), LS of the right anterior segment = 7.30 ± 1.06 kPa (before) vs. 4.77 ± 0.85 kPa (after), and LS of the left medial segment = 7.22 ± 0.87 kPa (before) vs. 4.87 ± 0.72 kPa (after) (all p = 0.001). There was a significant correlation between LS changes and venous pressure gradient changes before and after treatments (r = 0.651, p = 0.009). The clinical manifestations of all 15 patients significantly improved after therapy. The MRE repeatability was excellent, with insignificant variations (inter-reader, ICC = 0.839-0.943: inter-examination, ICC = 0.765-0.869). Bland-Altman analysis confirmed excellent agreement (limits of agreement, 13.4-19.4%). Conclusion: Segmental LS measured by MRE is a promising repeatable quantitative biomarker for monitoring the treatment response to minimally invasive endovascular intervention in patients with BCS.

The field of marketing research in the satellite communication services is still in the early stage of its development. Particularly, in Korean domestic satellite service market, many theoretical and methodological opportunities now exist. In this paper we develop a model, which identifies target markets and promising application services in Korean satellite communication service Market. One key contribution of this paper is a modeling approach to the assessment of market potential and priorities of the application services in each Korean industry. We define and estimate the degree of attractiveness for each segmented market which represents the market potential estimated by current usage of terrestrial services and each market segment's willingness to adopt satellite technology. Since all possible satellite application services are not equally important in the market, they should be differentiated in terms of the likelihood of success. We introduce another index prioritizing application services by tying together three important factors affecting Korean satellite service demand. Some marketing implications of model results are also discussed. Finally the findings of our model are compared with those of other similar studies.
