The purpose of this paper is to compare the structural responses obtained from the stochastic analysis of a suspension bridge subjected to uniform and partially correlated seismic ground motions, using different spatial correlation functions commonly used in the earthquake engineering. The spatial correlation function employed in this study consists of a term that characterizes the loss of coherency. To account for the spatial variability of ground motions, the widely used four loss of coherency models in the literature has been taken into account in this study. Because each of these models has its own characteristics, it is intended to determine the sensitivity of a suspension bridge due to these losses of coherency models which represent the spatial variability of ground motions. Bosporus Suspension Bridge connects Europe to Asia in Istanbul is selected as a numerical example. The bridge has steel towers that are flexible, inclined hangers and a steel box-deck of 1074 m main span, with side spans of 231 and 255 m on the European and Asian sides, respectively. For the ground motion the filtered white noise model is considered and applied in the vertical direction, the intensity parameter of this model is obtained by using the S16E component of Pacoima Dam record of 1971 San Fernando earthquake. An analytically simple model called as filtered white noise ground motion model is chosen to represent the earthquake ground motion. When compared with the uniform ground motion case, the results obtained from the spatial variability models with partial correlation outline the necessity to include the spatial variability of ground motions in the stochastic dynamic analysis of suspension bridges. It is observed that while the largest response values are obtained for the model proposed by Harichandran and Vanmarcke, the model proposed by Uscinski produces the smallest responses among the considered partially correlated ground motion models. The response values obtained from the uniform ground motion case are usually smaller than those of the responses obtained from the partially correlated ground motion cases. While the response values at the flexible parts of the bridge are totally dominated by the dynamic component, the pseudo-static component also has significant contributions for the response values at the rigid parts of the bridge. The results also show the consistency of the spatial variability models, which have different characteristics, considered in this study.

We study the angular correlation function of bright ($K_s{\leq}19.5$) Extremely Red Objects (EROs) selected in the Subaru GTO 2$deg^2$ field. By applying the color selection criteria of $R-K_s$ > 5.0, 5.5, and 6.0, we identify 9055, 4270, and 1777 EROs, respectively. The number density is consistent with similar studies on the optical - NIR color selected red galaxies. The angular correlation functions are derived for EROs with different limiting magnitude and different $R-K_s$ color cut. When we assume that the angular correlation function $w({\theta})$ follows a form of a power-law (i.e., $w({\theta})=A{\theta}^{-{\delta}}$), the value of the amplitude A was larger for brighter EROs compared to the fainter EROs. The result suggests that the brighter, thus more massive high-redshift galaxies, are clustered more strongly compared to the less massive galaxies. Assuming that EROs have redshift distribution centered at ~ 1.1 with ${\sigma}_z=0.15$, the spatial correlation length $r_0$ of the EROs estimated from the observed angular correlation function ranges ${\sim}6-10h^{-1}Mpc$. A comparison with the clustering of dark matter halos in numerical simulation suggests that the EROs are located in most massive dark matter halos and could be progenitors of $L_{\ast}$ elliptical galaxies.

The spaces have a variety of sizes dependent upon their function and significance as well as their geometric shape. An architect Adolf Loos (1870-1933) had incorporated a correlation between the unconstrained formation of space into design. He had noticeably revealed the features of space that are unconstrained and mutually related with each other, for the space compositions among modern architects. This study is about to analyze the feature of space structure for houses of Adolf Loos through Space syntax which is the quantitative space analyzing method for the subject of his detached houses. These houses were emphasized for functional aspects of space without unnecessary decorations. Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye was analysed along with it to review a comparative point of view of his house's characteristic. Based on this, the features of the spatial structure of Loos' house were examined in conjunction with his views space as essence. A J-Graph and VGA for Adolf Loos' detached house revealed the structure's spatial characteristics in which the interior space is located deeply removed from exterior yet it is integrated as a whole. Also, it revealed that the experiments of the various spatial structures shown in Adolf Loos' detached house and European rationalist architects like Le Corbusier affected each other at the same time.

Satellite data have an intrinsic problem due to a number of various physical parameters, which can have a similar effect on measured radiance. Most evaluations of satellite performance have relied on comparisons with limited spatial and temporal resolution of ground-based measurements such as soundings and in-situ measurements. In order to overcome this problem, a new way of satellite data evaluation is suggested with statistical tools such as empirical orthogonal function(EOF), and singular value decomposition(SVD). The EOF analyses with OMI and OMI HCHO over northeast Asia show that the spatial pattern show high correlation with population density. This suggests that human activity is a major source of as well as HCHO over this region. However, this analysis is contradictory to the previous finding with GOME HCHO that biogenic activity is the main driving mechanism(Fu et al., 2007). To verify the source of HCHO over this region, we performed the EOF analyses with vegetation and HCHO distribution. The results showed no coherence in the spatial and temporal pattern between two factors. Rather, the additional SVD analysis between $NO_2$ and HCHO shows consistency in spatial and temporal coherence. This outcome suggests that the anthropogenic emission is the main source of HCHO over the region. We speculate that the previous study appears to be due to low temporal and spatial resolution of GOME measurements or uncertainty in model input data.

A Bayesian response surface updating procedure is applied in order to update the parameters of the covariance function of a random field for concrete properties based on a limited number of available measurements. Formulas as well as a numerical algorithm are presented in order to update the parameters of response surfaces using Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulations. The parameters of the covariance function are often based on some kind of expert judgment due the lack of sufficient measurement data. However, a Bayesian updating technique enables to estimate the parameters of the covariance function more rigorously and with less ambiguity. Prior information can be incorporated in the form of vague or informative priors. The proposed estimation procedure is evaluated through numerical simulations and compared to the commonly used least square method.

표층 수온의 이상 고수온 현상인 해양열파는 해양생태계, 수산업, 기상 현상 등 인간 활동 및 해양 생물들에게 광범위하게 영향을 미치기 때문에 많은 해양학자들의 관심을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 여름철 동중국해의 해양 물성 변화를 유발하는 중요한 원인인 양자강 희석수 분포가 해양열파에 미치는 영향에 대해서 살펴보았다. 동중국해 표층 염분 분포는 6~8월에 양자강 희석수의 동쪽 확장으로 인해 제주도 및 대한해협까지 희석수의 영향을 받는 것을 알 수 있었고, 9월에는 양자강 희석수가 양자강 하구역에 제한적으로 존재하는 형태를 보여주었다. 여름철 해양열파 누적강도를 Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) 분석을 통해 분석하였다. EOF 첫번째 모드의 고유벡터와 주성분 시계열을 추출하여 양자강 희석수와 상관관계 분석을 실시한 결과, 양자강 희석수로 인해 염분이 낮은 해역과 해양열파 누적강도가 강하게 나타나는 해역의 공간 상관성이 매우 높은 음의 상관관계를 보임을 알 수 있었다. 이는 희석수로 인한 성층 강화가 해양열파의 강도 및 지속성을 증가시킬 수 있음을 보여준다. 본 연구결과는 한반도 연근해 해양열파 발생에 있어서 대기변화와 해양 환경이 모두 중요한 요인이 될 수 있음을 시사한다.

본 논문은 개선된 얼굴검출 알고리즘과 눈의 개폐 빈도수로부터 운전자의 졸음을 판단하는 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 기존의 Viola-Jones 알고리즘과 얼굴의 공간적 상관관계를 이용하여 얼굴, 눈, 코, 입을 검출한다. 여기서, 얼굴의 공간적 상관관계는 7가지 특징에 기반한 DFP(Detect Face Part)에 의해 수행된다. Caltect 얼굴 데이터베이스에 실험을 한 결과, 특히 코 영역에 대한 검출률은 기존 Viola-Jones 알고리즘과 비교하여 13.78% 증가된 검출률을 보여주고 있다. 그리고, SVM(Support Vector Machine)과 PERCLOS(Percentage Closure of Eyes)을 사용해 시간에 따른 눈 개폐상태의 누적 값으로 운전자의 졸음 판단을 분석한다. 실험결과 93.28%의 운전자 졸음판단률을 얻어 제안된 방법의 유용성을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 조사연구의 과정에서 활용 가능한 공간분석의 유용성을 지리정보시스템(GIS)과 공간적 이질성을 고려하는 지리적 가중 회귀분석(GWR)을 통해 탐색한다. 많은 사회현상은 공간적 차원을 포함하고 있으며, GIS, GPS 단말장치, 온라인 위치기반 서비스의 발달로 위치정보의 수집과 활용이 용이해짐에 따라 조사연구의 과정에서 공간정보를 활용하는 분석이 이전보다 훨씬 더 용이해지고 있다. 관찰의 독립성과 오차의 동분산성을 가정하는 전통적 회귀분석은 공간적 의존성을 분석하지 못한다. GWR 분석은 속성정보뿐만 아니라 공간정보를 활용하는 공간분석 기법으로서, 공간적으로 근접한 사례들은 유사성을 가진다는 가정에 따라 지리적 가중함수를 활용한다. A 기초자치단체 주민들을 대상으로 한 조사연구 자료를 공간정보와 결합시킨 후 간단한 행정만족도 모형을 추정해 본 결과, 지리적 가중 회귀분석은 전통적 회귀분석에 비해 공간적 자기상관의 문제를 극복하고 모형의 부합도를 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. GWR 결과를 GIS와 결합시켜 독립변수 효과의 공간적 변이를 시각화시켜 봄으로써, 변수들의 효과와 관계를 더 자세하고 풍부하게 이해할 수 있다. 나아가서 이 기법은 특정 변수의 효과가 예외적으로 낮거나 높은 지역을 더 쉽게 밝혀냄으로써 정책방안을 모색하는 데에도 유용하게 활용될 수 있다.

The statistical tools such as empirical orthogonal function (EOF), and singular value decomposition (SVD) have been applied to analyze the characteristic of air pollutant over southeast Asia as well as to evaluate Zimeke's tropospheric column ozone (ZTO) determined by tropospheric residual method. In this study, we found that the EOF and SVD analyses are useful methods to extract the most significant temporal and spatial pattern from enormous amounts of satellite data. The EOF analyses with OMI $NO_2$ and OMI HCHO over southeast Asia revealed that the spatial pattern showed high correlation with fire count (r=0.8) and the EOF analysis of CO (r=0.7). This suggests that biomass burning influences a major seasonal variability on $NO_2$ and HCHO over this region. The EOF analysis of ZTO has indicated that the location of maximum ZTO was considerably shifted westward from the location of maximum of fire count and maximum month of ZTO occurred a month later than maximum month (March) of $NO_2$, HCHO and CO. For further analyses, we have performed the SVD analyses between ZTO and ozone precursor to examine their correlation and to check temporal and spatial consistency between two variables. The spatial pattern of ZTO showed latitudinal gradient that could result from latitudinal gradient of stratospheric ozone and temporal maximum of ZTO in March appears to be associated with stratospheric ozone variability that shows maximum in March. These results suggest that there are some sources of error in the tropospheric residual method associated with cloud height error, low efficiency of tropospheric ozone, and low accuracy in lower stratospheric ozone.
