Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a graphical technique of multivariate analysis to display dissimilarities among individuals into low-dimensional space. We often have two kinds of MDS which are metric MDS and non-metric MDS. Metric MDS can be applied to quantitative data; however, we need additional information about variables because it only shows relationships among individuals. Gower (1992) proposed a method that can represent variable information using trajectories of the pseudo-points for quantitative variables on the metric MDS space. We will call his method a 'replacement method'. However, the trajectory can not be represented even though metric MDS can be applied to binary data when we apply his method to binary data. Therefore, we propose a method to represent information of binary variables using pseudo-points called a 'partition method'. The proposed method partitions pseudo-points, accounting both the rate of zeroes and ones. Our metric MDS using the proposed partition method can show the relationship between individuals and variables for binary data.

This paper is to propose the fuzzy regression model using genetic algorithm which is fuzzy nonlinear regression model. Genetic algorithm is used to classify the input data for better fuzzy regression analysis. From this partition. each data can be have the grade of membership function which is belonged to a divided data group. The data group, from optimal partition of the region of each variable, have different fuzzy parameters of fuzzy linear regression model one another. We compound the fuzzy output of each data group so as to obtain the final fuzzy number for a data. We show the efficiency of this method by means of demonstration of a case study.

The performance improvement in MPEG-4 AVC is provided at the expense for higher computational complexity. Most of the complexity is caused by Inter prediction. To improve coding efficiency, some functions are added in H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, such as variable block size motion compensation, multi reference frame and quarter-pel motion compensation. A fast macroblock partition decision method is proposed in this paper. The macroblock size is efficiently determined by using the pixel value difference between encoding and the referred macroblock.

In constructing a credit scorecard, each characteristic variable is divided into a few attributes; subsequently, weights are assigned to those attributes in a process called coarse classification. While partitioning a characteristic variable into attributes, one should determine appropriate cutpoints for the partition. In this paper, we propose a cutpoint selection method via penalization. In addition, we compare the performances of the proposed method with classification spline machine (Koo et al., 2009) on both simulated and real credit data.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how ozone-dissolution-tank structure affects micro-ozone-bubble distribution, energy consumption and water treatment efficiency. The partition walls inside the ozone-dissolution-tank generate pressure changes, shear forces, and swirling flows, which change the size of the bubble diameter. The size of the bubble diameter differs by 10.5% depending on the partition walls. Changes in ozone-bubble diameter are related to energy consumption. As the ozone-bubble becomes smaller, the bubble generation energy increases, but the ozone production energy decreases as the dissolution efficiency increases. Therefore, an ozone-dissolution-tank should be determined by means of an optimal condition producing a micro-ozone-bubble with a minimum sum of bubble generation energy and ozone production energy. The energy consumed to inject the same amount of ozone into the effluent differs by 2.5% depending on the partition walls. However, considering the water treatment efficiency, the conditions for selecting the ozone-dissolution-tank are variable. This is because the free radicals that increase as the ozone-bubble gets smaller are very efficient for water treatment. Even at the same ozone injection concentration, the water treatment efficiency differs by 10.4% according to the partition walls. Therefore, we have studied ozone-dissolution-tank structure which produces reasonable ozone-bubble considering water treatment efficiency and energy efficiency.

The educational system of Korean elementary schools switches eventually from that of cramming to open study emphasizing student's autonomy and attaching importance to their individuality. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to establish renovational course for conventional classes to practise open education proper to Korean situations at a minimum of expense and time. And the consequence of this study can be summarized as follows : 1) To prepare for various learning activities, a multipurpose space that can be shared by three or four classes is required. 2) Partitions that have divided the existing spaces of unit study must be removed and substituted to a movable partition to make the class variable according to the form of study.

A meshfree multi-scale method has been presented for efficient analysis of elasto-plastic problems. From the variational principle, problem is decomposed into a fine scale and a coarse scale problem. In the analysis only the plastic region is discretized using fine scale. Each scale variable is approximated using meshfree method. Adaptivity can easily and nicely be implemented in meshree method. As a method of increasing resolution, partition of unity based extrinsic enrichment is used. Each scale problem is solved iteratively. Iteration procedure is indispensable for the elasto-plastic deformation analysis. Therefore this kind of solution procedure is adequate to that problem. The proposed method is applied to Prandtl's punch test and shear band problem. The results are compared with those of other methods and the validity of the proposed method is demonstrated.

This paper present a method of function decomposition and input variable manipulation method based on modular design techniques. We obtain the column multiplicity of decomposition function according to row decomposition method. Also, the proposed partial decomposition function have advantage which is able to omit control function using t-Gate. We find the advantage for internal connection decrement 12% and T-gate number 16%, therefore we find the simple design circuit.

In this paper, we propose a new scheme for geometry coding of three-dimensional (3-D) mesh models using a fixed spectral basis. In order to code the mesh geometry information, we generate a fixed spectral basis using the dual graph derived from the 3-D mesh topology. After we partition a 3-D mesh model into several independent sub-meshes to reduce coding complexity, the mesh geometry information is projected onto the generated orthonormal bases which are the eigenvectors of the Laplacian matrix of the 3-D mesh. Finally, spectral coefficients are coded by a quantizer and a variable length coder. The proposed scheme can not only overcome difficulty of generating a fixed spectral basis, but also reduce coding complexity. Moreover, we can provide an efficient multi-resolution representation of 3-D meshes.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a model enabling to predict the prosody of Korean text-to-speech synthesis using the CART and SKES algorithms. CART prefers a prediction variable in many instances. Therefore, a partition method by F-Test was applied to CART which had reduced the number of instances by grouping phonemes. Furthermore, the quality of the text-to-speech synthesis was evaluated after applying the SKES algorithm to the same data size. For the evaluation, MOS tests were performed on 30 men and women in their twenties. Results showed that the synthesized speech was improved in a more clear and natural manner by applying the SKES algorithm.
