This study proposes RAG (Region Adjancency Graph)-based image segmentation for large imagery in remote sensing. The proposed algorithm uses CN-chain linking for computational efficiency and multi-window operation of sliding structure for memory efficiency. Region-merging due to RAG is a process to find an edge of the best merge and update the graph according to the merge. The CN-chain linking constructs a chain of the closest neighbors and finds the edge for merging two adjacent regions. It makes the computation time increase as much as an exact multiple in the increasement of image size. An RNV (Regional Neighbor Vector) is used to update the RAG according to the change in image configuration due to merging at each step. The analysis of large images requires an enormous amount of computational memory. The proposed sliding multi-window operation with horizontal structure considerably the memory capacity required for the analysis and then make it possible to apply the RAG-based segmentation for very large images. In this study, the proposed algorithm has been extensively evaluated using simulated images and the results have shown its potentiality for the application of remotely-sensed imagery.

The EMFG (Extended Mark Flow Graph) is known as a graph model for representing the discrete event systems. In this paper, we introduce input/output matrixes representing the marking variance of input/output boxes when each transition fires in an EMFG, and compute an incidence matrix. We represent firing conditions of transitions to a firing condition matrix for computing a firable vector, and introduce the firing completion vector to decide completion of each transition’s firing. By using them, we improve an analysis algorithm of the EMFG’s operation to be represented all the process of EMFG’s operation mathematically. We apply the proposed algorithm to the system repeating the forward and reverse revolution, and then confirm that it is valid. The proposed algorithm is useful to analysis the variant discrete event systems.

The tactical communications network has to be deployed rapidly at military operation area and support the communications between the military command systems and the weapon systems. For that, the frequency assignment is required for backbone wireless links of tactical communications network without frequency interferences. In this paper, we propose a frequency assignment method using net filter discrimination (NFD) and graph coloring to avoid frequency interferences. The proposed method presents frequency assignment problem of tactical communications network as vertex graph coloring problem of a weighted graph. And it makes frequency assignment sequences and assigns center frequencies to communication links according to the priority of communication links and graph coloring. The evaluation shows that this method can assign center frequencies to backbone communication links without frequency interferences. It also shows that the method can improve the frequency utilization in comparison with HTZ-warfare that is currently used by Korean Army.

Let G be a graph and k is a positive integer. Hammack and Livesay in [The inner power of a graph, Ars Math. Contemp., 3 (2010), no. 2, 193-199] introduced a new graph operation $G^{(k)}$, called the $k^{th}$ inner power of G. In this paper, it is proved that if G is bipartite then $G^{(2)}$ has exactly three components such that one of them is bipartite and two others are isomorphic. As a consequence the edge frustration index of $G^{(2)}$ is computed based on the same values as for the original graph G. We also compute the first and second Zagreb indices and coindices of $G^{(2)}$.

The Wiener polarity index$W_p(G)$ of a graph G of order $n$ is the number of unordered pairs of vertices $u$ and $v$ of G such that the distance $d_G(u,v)$ between $u$ and $v$ is 3. In this paper the Wiener polarity index of some graph operations are computed. As an application of our results, the Wiener polarity index of a polybuckyball fullerene and $C_4$ nanotubes and nanotori are computed.

This research aims to develop high-quality generative AI services by overcoming the limitations of existing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) models and implementing an enhanced graph-based RAG system to improve knowledge-based question answering (QA) systems. While traditional RAG models demonstrate high accuracy and fluency by utilizing retrieved information, their accuracy can be compromised due to the use of pre-loaded knowledge without rework. Additionally, the inability to incorporate real-time data after the RAG configuration leads to a lack of contextual understanding and potential biased information. To address these limitations, this study implements an enhanced RAG system utilizing graph technology. This system is designed to efficiently search and utilize information. In particular, LangGraph is employed to evaluate the reliability of retrieved information and to generate more accurate and improved answers by integrating various information. Furthermore, the specific operation method, key implementation steps, and case studies are presented with implementation code and verification results to enhance understanding of Advanced RAG technology. This research provides practical guidelines for actively implementing enterprise services utilizing Advanced RAG, making it significant.

This paper investigates the shaping operation problem introduced by Callahan et al., namely the k-fragility maximization problem (k-FMP), whose goal is to find a subset of personals within a terrorist group such that the regeneration capability of the residual group without the personals is minimized. To improve the impact of the shaping operation, the degree centrality of the residual graph needs to be maximized. In this paper, we propose a new greedy algorithm for k-FMP. We discover some interesting discrete properties and use this to design a more thorough greedy algorithm for k-FMP. Our simulation result shows that the proposed algorithm outperforms Callahan et al.'s algorithm in terms of maximizing degree centrality. While our algorithm incurs higher running time (factor of k), given that the applications of the problem is expected to allow sufficient amount of time for thorough computation and k is expected to be much smaller than the size of input graph in reality, our algorithm has a better merit in practice.

The objective of this paper is to propose an Extended AND-OR Graph (EAOG)-driven inferential simulation mechanism with which decision makers engaged in electronic commerce (EC) can effectively deal with complicated decision making problem. In the field of traditional expect systems research, AND-OR Graph approach cannot be effectively used in the EC problems in which real-time problem-solving property should be highly required. In this sense, we propose the EAOG inference mechanism for EC problem-solving in which heurisric knowledge necessary for intelligent EC problem-solving can be represented in a form of matrix. The EAOG method possesses the following three characteristics. 1. Realtime inference: The EAOG inference mechanism is suitable for the real-time inference because its computational mechanism is based on matrix computation.2. Matrix operation: All the subjective knowledge is delineated in a matrix form, so that inference process can proceed based on the matrix operation which is computationally efficient.3. Bi-directional inference: Traditional inference method of expert systems is based on either forward chaining or based on either and computational efficiency. However, the proposed EAOG inference mechanism is generically bi-directional without loss of both speed and efficiency.We have proved the validity of our approach with several propositions and an illustrative EC example.

In this paper, a new method of phoneme segmentation of handwritten Korean characters using the local graph pattern is proposed. At first, thinning was performed before extracting features. End-point, inflexion-point, branch-point and cross-point were extracted as features. Using these features and the angular relations between these features, local graph pattern was made. When local graph pattern is made, the of strokes is investigated on contacting point. From this process, pattern is simplified as contacting pattern of the basic form and the contacting form we must take into account can be restricted within fixed region, 4therefore phoneme segmentation not influenced by characters form and any other contact in a single character is performed as matching this local graph pattern with base patterns searched ahead. This experiments with 540 characters have been conducted. From the result of this experiment, it is shown that phoneme segmentation is independent of characters form and other contact in a single character to obtain a correct segmentation rate of 95%, manages it efficiently to reduce the time spent in lock operation when the lock.

This paper proposes a Data-Flow-Graph (DFG) restructuring to reduce calculating errors in loop folding scheduling. The prime cause of calculating error is rounding errors due to the restriction of the operation digit of functional units. This rounding error is increased more by using multipliers than adders, so reducing the number of multiplications and putting off them as much as possible reduce rounding errors. The proposed approach reduces the number of multiplications by restructuring DFG in loop folding.
