Workplace Panel Survey(WPS) is the representative panel survey of workplace in Korea. WPS was newly sampled in 2005 and is to be used for the subsequent biennial survey. The main survey is divided into a questionnaire for human resources(HR) manager, a questionnaire for labor relations manager and a questionnaire for representatives of unions. The population of WPS 2005 included workplaces across the country with 30 or more employees. The WPS 2005 was composed of 1,905 workplaces including 290 workplaces in the public sector. The sample was selected by the stratified random sampling. Weighting process for the survey data was introduced to compensate for differential sampling and non-response rates. Personal interviews were conducted using the Computer Assisted Personal Interviewing(CAPI) system during visits by interviewers, along with survey via mail and e-mail concerning employment and financial issues. The CPAI system introduced for the WPS 2005 can by used for automatical detection for errors and inconsistencies which may occur during the survey process. The CAPI system played an important part in enhancing the reliability of the survey data.

Recently, studies on the indoor positioning system in application of wireless AP have been actively going on. The indoor wireless positioning system can be classified into several types according to the positioning techniques. Among them, the fingerprint technique is a technique that establishes the radio map by collecting MAC information of AP and RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication) before executing positioning and then determines the position in comparison with the information of AP collected during the course of positioning. In the traditional fingerprint techniques, they control and manage by installing APs that are utilized for positioning. However, in case of specific indoors, the management can be done by installing a small number of APs but, in case of wide outdoors, it's practically impossible to install and manage equipments for positioning. In order to solve such problem, there is an improved fingerprint technique that utilizes the APs that are already scattered around. This technique will allow positioning without additional cost, but even the improved fingerprint positioning technique may incur dropped accuracy as well due to wide fluctuation of the AP information. In this paper, the traditional fingerprint technique and the improved fingerprint technique are explained in comparison, and we will compares difference in performance with the proposed WPS_WS (Wi-Fi Positioning System_Weak Signal) technique.

In Korean, each digit is monosyllable and some pairs are known to have high confusability, causing performance degradation of connected digit recognition systems. To improve the performance, in this paper, we employ various discriminant analyses (DA) including Linear DA (LDA), Weighted Pairwise Scatter LDA WPS-LDA), Heteroscedastic Discriminant Analysis (HDA), and Maximum Likelihood Linear Transformation (MLLT). We also examine several combinations of various DA for additional performance improvement. Experimental results show that applying any DA mentioned above improves the string accuracy, but the amount of improvement of each DA method varies according to the model complexity or number of mixtures per state. Especially, more than 20% of string error reduction is achieved by applying MLLT after WPS-LDA, compared with the baseline system, when class level of DA is defined as a tied state and 1 mixture per state is used.

Root gap out of standard by welding deformation is frequently produced at butt weld joints of steel bridge. For example although standard root gap is below 6mm at butt weld joints of plates under 15mm thickness. maximum 35mm root opening is produced at the weld field. At this case, the part out of standard is generally built up and the rest part is welded by WPS. Direct welding without built-up welding is preferred in weld field because built-up welding process bring about the cost-up at manufacturing. To apply this direct weld to root gap out of standard, the investigation about mechanical properties and fatigue at weldment is required. Inthisstudy, therefore the verification for direct weld without built up is performed at weldment as root gap. It includes tension, bending. hardness, impact and fatigue test for each welding specimen of 6mm, 25mm, 35mm root gap.

IPS 측위는 GPS음영 지역인 실내의 특정 위치 정보를 판단하는 시스템으로 현재 위치에서 발생되는 신호 정보를 수집하는 시스템과 이 신호들로 구성된 실내 측위 지도, 측위 위치를 결정하기 위한 알고리즘 등에 따라 여러 종류로 나누어진다. 대표적인 IPS로 2.4Ghz, 5.0GHz 대역의 무선 신호(WiFi, BLE, Sensor Network, etc)를 활용하는 RF신호 기반 WPS 등이 있다. RF 신호를 기반으로 하는 실내 측위는 발생 기기의 고장, 장애물 발생, 채널 간섭 현상 등으로 인해 측위 시점 수집된 신호와 구축된 지도의 신호 정보가 달라 측위 정확도가 낮아지는 경우가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 앞서 언급한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 기존 RF 환경을 사용하는 IPS 방안에 대하여 분석한다. 또한 RF 이외의 실내 측위 기술들에 대해서도 설명하고 측위 정확도를 위해 단일 측위 방식이 아닌 복합 측위 방식에 대한 설계를 제안한다.

WPS(Wifi Positioning System) conducts positioning using wireless signals scattered in real world. This process is divided into two stages: Construction Stage that collects information on wireless signals for determining location and constructs a radio map and Positioning Stage that compares the constructed information with the collected information on wireless signals. WPS lowers the accuracy of positioning if changes occur to the collected signals during positioning. PDR have recently been studied. IPS is a system designed to find out the final destination by analyzing pedestrian's no. of gait, travel range, and direction through inertial sensors. If the positioning results of WPS appear in more than two locations, it can be thought as the problem of positioning accuracy. In some cases, problems occur. In this respect, this study analyzes the situations in which the problem as mentioned above occurs and proposes a system to solve this problem through PDR.
