In the present study, a 3-dimensional (3D) numerical model was developed to mimic the micro porous structure of a geological $CO_2$ storage reservoir. Especially, 3D modeling technique assigning random pore size to a 3D micro porous structure was devised. Numerical method using CFD (computational fluid dynamics) was applied for the 3D micro porous structure to calculate supercritical $CO_2$ flow field. The three different configurations of 3D micro porous model were designed and their flow fields were calculated. For the physical conditions of $CO_2$ flow, temperature and pressure were set up equivalent to geological underground condition where $CO_2$ fluid was stored. From the results, the characteristics of the supercritical $CO_2$ flow fields were scrutinized and the influence of the micro pore configuration on the flow field was investigated. In particular, the pressure difference and consequent $CO_2$ permeability were calculated and compared with increasing $CO_2$ flow rate.

Prediction of the prosodic phrase boundary is one of the most important natural language processing tasks. We propose, for the natural prediction of the Korean prosodic phrase boundary, a statistical approach incorporating efficient learning features. These new features reflect the factors that affect generation of the prosodic phrase boundary better than existing learning features. Notably, moreover, such learning features, extracted according to the hand-crafted prosodic phrase boundary prediction rule, impart higher accuracy. We developed a statistical model for Korean prosodic phrase boundaries based on the proposed new features. The results were 86.63% accuracy for three levels (major break, minor break, no break) and 81.14% accuracy for six levels (major break with falling tone/rising tone, minor break with falling tone/rising tone/middle tone, no break).

환자의 병력을 서술하는 임상문서에서 임상 개체명들은 그들 사이에 개체명이 아닌 단어들이 위치하기 때문에 거리상으로 서로 떨어져 있고, 임상 개체명인식에 많이 사용되는 조건부무작위장(conditional random fields; CRF) 모델은 Markov 속성을 따르기 때문에 서로 떨어져 있는 개체명 라벨 간의 전이 정보는 모델의 계산에서 무시된다. 본 논문에서는 라벨링 모델에 서로 떨어진 개체명 간 전이 관계를 표현하기 위하여 CRF 모델의 구조를 변경하는 방법론을 소개한다. 제안된 CRF 모델 디자인에서는 모델의 계산효율성을 빠르게 유지하기 위하여 Markov 속성을 유지하는 1차 모델 구조를 유지한다. 모델은 선행하는 개체명의 라벨 정보를 후행하는 개체명 엔터티에게 전달하기 위하여 선행 개체명의 라벨을 뒤 따르는 비개체명 라벨에 전이시키고 이를 통해 후행하는 개체명은 선행하는 개체명의 라벨 정보를 알 수 있게 된다. 라벨의 고차 전이 정보를 전달함에도 모델의 구조는 1차 전이 구조를 유지함으로 n차 구조의 모델보다 빠른 계산 속도를 유지할 수 있게 된다. 모델의 성능 평가를 위하여 서울대학교병원 류머티즘내과에서 퇴원한 환자들의 퇴원요약지에 병력과 관련된 엔터티가 태깅된 평가 데이터와 i2b2 2012/VA 임상자연어처리 shared task의 임상 개체명 추출 데이터를 사용하였고 기본 CRF 모델들(1차, 2차)과 비교하였다. 피처 조합에 따라 모델들을 평가한 결과 제안한 모델이 거의 모든 경우에서 기본 모델들에 비하여 F1-score의 성능을 향상시킴을 관찰할 수 있었다.

In this paper, a new version of the ICM method(MICM, modified ICM) in which the contextual information is modelled by Markov random fields (MRF) is introduced. To extract the feature, a new local MRF model with a fitting block neighbourhood is proposed. This model selects contextual information not only from the relative intensity levels but also from the geometrically directional position of neighbouring cliques. Feature extraction depends on each block's contribution to the local variance. They discriminates it into several regions, for example context and background. Boundaries between these regions are also distinctive. The proposed algerian performs segmentation using directional block fitting procedure which confines merging to spatially adjacent elements and generates a partition such that pixels in unified cluster have a homogeneous intensity level. From experiment with ink rubbed copy images(Takbon, 拓本), this method is determined to be quite effective for feature identification. In particular, the new algorithm preserves the details of the images well without over- and under-smoothing problem occurring in general iterated conditional modes (ICM). And also, it may be noted that this method is applicable to the handwriting recognition.

Purpose Local governments in each region actively hold local festivals for the purpose of promoting the region and revitalizing the local economy. Existing studies related to local festivals have been actively conducted in tourism and related academic fields. Empirical studies to understand the effects of latent variables on local festivals and studies to analyze the regional economic impacts of festivals occupy a large proportion. Despite of practical need, since few researches have been conducted to predict the number of visitors, one of the criteria for evaluating the performance of local festivals, this study developed a model for predicting the number of visitors through various observed variables using a machine learning algorithm and derived its implications. Design/methodology/approach For a total of 593 festivals held in 2018, 6 variables related to the region considering population size, administrative division, and accessibility, and 15 variables related to the festival such as the degree of publicity and word of mouth, invitation singer, weather and budget were set for the training data in machine learning algorithm. Since the number of visitors is a continuous numerical data, random forest, Adaboost, and linear regression that can perform regression analysis among the machine learning algorithms were used. Findings This study confirmed that a prediction of the number of visitors to local festivals is possible using a machine learning algorithm, and the possibility of using machine learning in research in the tourism and related academic fields, including the study of local festivals, was captured. From a practical point of view, the model developed in this study is used to predict the number of visitors to the festival to be held in the future, so that the festival can be evaluated in advance and the demand for related facilities, etc. can be utilized. In addition, the RReliefF rank result can be used. Considering this, it will be possible to improve the existing local festivals or refer to the planning of a new festival.

In this paper, a new unsupervised image segmentation algorithm is proposed. To model the contextual information presented in images, the characteristics of the Markov random fields (MRF) are utilized. Textured images are modeled as realizations of the stationary Gaussian MRF on a two-dimensional square lattice using the conditional autoregressive (CAR) equations with a second-order noncausal neighborhood. To detect boundaries, hypothesis tests over two masked areas are performed. Under the hypothesis, masked areas are assumed to belong to the same class of textures and CAR equation parameters are estimated in a minimum-mean-square-error (MMSE) sense. If the hypothesis is rejected, a measure of dissimilarity between two areas is accumulated on the rejected area. This approach produces potential edge maps. Using these maps, boundary detection can be performed, which resulting no micro edges. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated by some experiments using real images as weB as synthetic ones. The experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can produce satisfactorY segmentation without any a priori information.

A retinal ganglion cell's receptive field is defined as that region on the retinal surface In which a light stimulus will produce a response. A retinal ganglion cell peers out at a small patch of the visual scene through its receptive field and encodes local features with action potentials that pass through the optic nerve to higher centers. Therefore, defining the receptive field of a retinal ganglion cell is essential to understand the electrical characteristics of a ganglion cell. Distribution of receptive fields over retinal surface provides us an Insight how the retinal ganglion cell processes the visual scene. In this paper, we provide the details how to reconstruct the receptive field of a retinal ganglion cell. We recorded the ganglion cell's action potential with multielectrode array when the random checkerboard stimulus was applied. After classifying the retinal waveform Into ON-cell, OFF-cell, ON/OFF-cell, we reconstructed the receptive field of retinal ganglion cell with Matlab. Here, we show the receptive fields of ON-cell and OFF-cell.

In a goal-oriented dialogue, speaker's intention can be approximated by a semantic structure that consists of a pair of a speech act and a concept sequence. Therefore, it is very important to correctly identify the semantic structure of an utterance for implementing an intelligent dialogue system. In this paper, we propose a model to efficiently analyze the semantic structures based on an active teaming method. To reduce the burdens of high-level linguistic analysis, the proposed model only uses morphological features and previous semantic structures as input features. To improve the precisions of semantic structure analysis, the proposed model adopts CRFs(Conditional Random Fields), which show high performances in natural language processing, as an underlying statistical model. In the experiments in a schedule arrangement domain, we found that the proposed model shows similar performances(92.4% in speech act analysis and 89.8% in concept sequence analysis) to the previous models although it uses about a third of training data.

Unknown morpheme errors in Korean morphological analysis are divided into two types: The one is the errors that a morphological analyzer entirely fails to return any morpheme sequences, and the other is the errors that a morphological analyzer returns incorrect combinations of known morphemes. Most previous unknown morpheme estimation techniques have been focused on only the former errors. This paper proposes a unknown morpheme estimation method which can handle both of the unknown morpheme errors. The proposed method detects Eojeols (Korean spacing units) that may include unknown morpheme errors using SVM (Support Vector Machine). Then, using CRFs (Conditional Random Fields), it segments morphemes from the detected Eojeols and annotates the segmented morphemes with new POS tags. In the experiments, the proposed method outperformed the conventional method based on the longest matching of functional words. Based on the experimental results, we knew that the second type errors should be dealt with in order to increase the performance of Korean morphological analysis.

The plasmon behaviors in a superlattice of $GaAs/Al_xGa_{1-x}As$ multiple quantum wells with a half-parabolic confining potential due to different dielectric interfaces are studied under magnetic and electric fields perpendicular and parallel to the superlattice axis by using a previously published theoretical framework. From the density-density correlation functions by considering the intrasubband and the inter-subband transitions under the random phase approximation, we calculate the dispersion energies of the surface and the bulk states as functions of the composition of the multiple quantum well structure and of the magnetic field strength and the average electric field strength over the quantum well. The Raman intensities for various magnetic field strengths and average electric field strengths over the quantum well are also obtained as a function of the energy of the incoming light for these states.
