Music summarization refers to a technique which automatically extracts the most important and representative segments in music content. In this paper, we propose and evaluate a technique which provides the repeated part in music content as music summary. For extracting a repeated segment in music content, the proposed algorithm uses the weighted sum of similarity measures based on multi-level vector quantization for fixed-length summary or optimal-length summary. For similarity measures, count-based similarity measure and distance-based similarity measure are proposed. The number of the same codeword and the Mahalanobis distance of features which have same codeword at the same position in segments are used for count-based and distance-based similarity measure, respectively. Fixed-length music summary is evaluated by measuring the overlapping ratio between hand-made repeated parts and automatically generated ones. Optimal-length music summary is evaluated by calculating how much automatically generated music summary includes repeated parts of the music content. From experiments we observed that optimal-length summary could capture the repeated parts in music content more effectively in terms of summary length than fixed-length summary.

This study is an analysis on the focus of textbooks regarding the statistical chapters of "measures of representative(central tendency) and of the spread". Applying the summary-concept criteria of Juhyeon Nam(2007), 4 kinds of aspect of the chapter; (1) definition and its teleological validity of the measures of representative, (2) definition and practical value of the measures of spread (3) distributional form on the measures of representative and of spread (4) location and scale preservation or invariance of the measures of representative and of spread were observed. On the measures of representative, some definitions were insufficient to check the teleological validity of the measure. Most definitions of the measure of spread were based on the practical view points but no preparation for the future statistical inferences were found even by implication. Some books mention about the measures of representative and of spread for distributions, but we could not find any comments on the correspondence between the sample mean and the expectation of a distribution or population mean. However it is stimulant that some books check the validity of corresponding measures with the location and scale preservation or invariant property, that were not found in the previous curriculum.

Database summarization is the procedure to obtain generalized and representative descriptions expressing the content of a large amount of database at a glance. We present a top-down summary refinement procedure to discover database summaries. The procedure exploits attribute concept hierarchies that represent ISA relationships among domain concepts. It begins with the most generalized summary and proceeds to find more specialized ones by stepwise refinements. This top-down paradigm reveals at least two important advantages compared to the previous bottom-up methods. Firstly, it provides a natural way of reflecting the user's own discovery preference interactively. Secondly, it does not produce too large intermediate result that makes it hard for the bottom-up approach to be applied in practical environment. The proposed procedure can also be easily extended for distributed databases. Information content measure of a database summary is derived in order to identify more informative summaries among the discovered results.

The purpose of this paper was to review Intelligent Compaction (IC) techniques, which is regarded relatively new to the railroad roadbed construction activity. Most of civil structures are built on roadbed that supposed to provide adequate load bearing support to the upper structure through the qualified compaction process. However, it is not uncommon for structure failure attributed to inadequate compaction control take place in field sites. Unlike traditional compaction control method to check field density at several locations, IC techniques continuously measure various compaction quality indices that represent compaction uniformity. In this paper, a series of literature review relevant to IC techniques was conducted to provide concise summary on the following categories: 1) background of IC technique; 2) Summary of IC vendors and basic principles; 3) modeling of IC behavior, and 4) case study along with correlation between IC with other measurements. In summary, IC technologies seem to be promising in future railroad construction to achieve better compaction quality control so that the serviceability of railroad can be ensured with minimizing rehabilitation and maintenance activities.

A lot of studies on the summary measures of predictive strength of categorical response models consider the likelihood ratio index (LRI), also known as the McFadden-R², a better option than many other measures. We propose a simple modification of the LRI that adjusts for the effect of the number of response categories on the measure and that also rescales its values, mimicking an underlying latent measure. The modified measure is applicable to both binary and ordinal response models fitted by maximum likelihood. Results from simulation studies and a real data example on the olfactory perception of boar taint show that the proposed measure outperforms most of the widely used goodness-of-fit measures for binary and ordinal models. The proposed R² interestingly proves quite invariant to an increasing number of response categories of an ordinal model.

Summary measures of population health or SMPH is an index which can describe morbidity as well as mortality. Summary measures of population health can be divided into health-adjusted life years which is a life expectancy measure and disability-adjusted life years which represents the gap between the ideal health status and the current health status. This study aims at estimating health-adjusted life expectancy(HALE) which is a measure of health-adjusted life years, by calculating life expectancy adjusted by health status using EQ-5D. The mortality data was obtained from the life table of 2005 which was published by the National Statistical Office and the health status by sex and age was obtained from the EQ-5D scores using the third National Health and Nutrition and Examination Survey in 2005. With these mortality and morbidity data, health-adjusted life expectancy was calculated using Sullivan's method. The study results showed that the health-adjusted life expectancy of males and females was 67.49 and 69.61, respectively, while the life expectancy of males and females was 75.14 and 81.89. In other words, Korean males and females lose 7.65 and 12.28, respectively, from the decrease of quality of life due to diseases and/or injuries. These results can further be interpreted that males lose 10.2% of their life expectancy and females 15.0%. This study suggests that it may be possible to monitor population's health-adjusted life expectancy by continuing to include health-related quality of life measures such as EQ-5D in national health surveys like the National Health and Nutrition and Examination Survey.

다양한 스마트 기기 및 관련 서비스의 증가에 따라 텍스트 데이터가 폭발적으로 증가하고 있으며, 이로 인해 방대한 문서로부터 필요한 정보만을 추려내는 작업은 더욱 어려워졌다. 따라서 텍스트 데이터로부터 핵심 내용을 자동으로 요약하여 제공할 수 있는 텍스트 자동 요약 기술이 최근 더욱 주목을 받고 있다. 텍스트 요약 기술은 뉴스 요약 서비스, 개인정보 약관 요약 서비스 등을 통해 현업에서도 이미 활발하게 적용되고 있으며, 학계에서도 문서의 주요 요소를 선별하여 제공하는 추출(Extraction) 접근법과 문서의 요소를 발췌한 뒤 이를 조합하여 새로운 문장을 구성하는 생성(Abstraction) 접근법에 따라 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 문서의 자동 요약 기술에 비해, 자동으로 요약된 문서의 품질을 평가하는 기술은 상대적으로 많은 진전을 이루지 못하였다. 요약문의 품질 평가를 다룬 기존의 대부분의 연구들은 사람이 수작업으로 요약문을 작성하여 이를 기준 문서(Reference Document)로 삼고, 자동 요약문과 기준 문서와의 유사도를 측정하는 방식으로 수행되었다. 하지만 이러한 방식은 기준 문서의 작성 과정에 막대한 시간과 비용이 소요될 뿐 아니라 요약자의 주관에 의해 평가 결과가 다르게 나타날 수 있다는 한계를 갖는다. 한편 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위한 연구도 일부 수행되었는데, 대표적으로 전문에 대해 차원 축소를 수행하고 이렇게 축소된 전문과 자동 요약문의 유사도를 측정하는 기법이 최근 고안된 바 있다. 이 방식은 원문에서 출현 빈도가 높은 어휘가 요약문에 많이 나타날수록 해당 요약문의 품질이 우수한 것으로 평가하게 된다. 하지만 요약이란 본질적으로 많은 내용을 줄여서 표현하면서도 내용의 누락을 최소화하는 것을 의미하므로, 단순히 빈도수에 기반한 "좋은 요약"이 항상 본질적 의미에서의 "좋은 요약"을 의미한다고 보는 것은 무리가 있다. 요약문 품질 평가의 이러한 기존 연구의 한계를 극복하기 위해, 본 연구에서는 요약의 본질에 기반한 자동 품질 평가 방안을 제안한다. 구체적으로 요약문의 문장 중 서로 중복되는 내용이 얼마나 적은지를 나타내는 요소로 간결성(Succinctness) 개념을 정의하고, 원문의 내용 중 요약문에 포함되지 않은 내용이 얼마나 적은지를 나타내는 요소로 완전성(Completeness)을 정의한다. 본 연구에서는 간결성과 완전성의 개념을 적용한 요약문 품질 자동 평가 방법론을 제안하고, 이를 TripAdvisor 사이트 호텔 리뷰의 요약 및 평가에 적용한 실험 결과를 소개한다.

Most statistical methods for finding interesting genes are focusing on the summary values with large fold-changes or large variations. Very few methods consider the probe level data. We developed a new measure to detect reliability that incorporates the probe level data. This reliability measure is useful for exploring the microarray data without ignoring the probe level data. It is easy to calculate, and it can be used for all the other statistical methods as a good guideline to find real differentially expressed genes. Instead of filtering out genes before the analysis, we use whole genes in the analysis and make decisions with new reliability measures.
