Distributed Fusion Moving Average Prediction for Linear Stochastic Systems

This paper is concerned with distributed fusion moving average prediction for continuous-time linear stochastic systems with multiple sensors. A distributed fusion with the weighted sum structure is applied to the optimal local moving average predictors. The distributed fusion prediction algorithm represents the optimal linear fusion by weighting matrices under the minimum mean square criterion. The derivation of equations for error cross-covariances between the local predictors is the key of this paper. Example demonstrates effectiveness of the distributed fusion moving average predictor.
Research on Reflection of an Elementary Pre-service Teachers’ for History Class among Social Studies: Narrative in ‘The murder of Jeong Mong-ju’ Class

본 연구는 예비교사의 수업설계와 실행과정에서의 성찰을 중심으로 초등학교 사회과 역사영역 수업의 의미를 탐색한 연구이다. 예비교사들은 역사적 사건과 인물을 관계맺고 그 관계를 중심으로 사건을 해석하였으며, 역사적 해석을 기반으로 ‘정몽주 살인사건’ 내러티브를 생성하였다. 그들이 구성한 좋은 수업은 1) 역사적 사실과 역사적 사고력을 결합하여 흥미와 진지함을 동시에 충족하는 수업 2) 교사와 학생이 역사적 사건에 대하여 질문과 대답을 이어가는 수업 3) 과거의 시간으로 학생을 초대하여 인물의 입장을 이해하는 수업 4) 사건의 흐름을 자연스럽게 이해시키는 내러티브적 수업이다. 그들은 실제 수업을 실행하면서 1) 사건의 상황을 충분히 이해하여야 자신의 입장을 제시할 수 있으며, 2) 인물과 사건의 관계를 내러티브 방식으로 가르치는 일은 효과적이지만 쉽지 않은 방법임을 확인하였다. 또한 3) 역사적 사실과 역사적 사고력을 균형있게 가르치는 일은 매우 어려우며, 4) 사건을 내러티브로 구성하는 일 자체만으로는 학생들이 역사적 맥락을 이해하는 데 한계가 있음도 알았다. 교사는 학습자 개개인의 지적 수준과 관심 영역을 활용하여 그들 스스로 역사이야기에 몰입하도록 유도해야 하는 것이다. 좋은 역사수업은 교사가 만든 역사이야기와 학생이 만들어가는 역사이야기가 모두 존재할 때 이루어질 수 있다. 사회과 수업구성과 실천 경험에 담긴 예비교사의 성찰과정과 수업이야기를 통하여 초등학교 사회과 역사영역 수업의 난제를 이해하고 그 고민을 공유하여 교사교육과 역사교육의 새로운 대안을 찾아 가길 기대한다.This study intended to explore the significance of a history class among subjects of elementary social studies by focusing on reflection of class from the perspective of class design and implementation by pre-service teachers. The teachers created a narrative for ‘the murder case of Jung Mong Ju’. The desirable class they constructed includes; 1) a class that satisfies both interest and seriousness simultaneously by combining the historical events and thoughts; 2) a class that both teacher and students continuously make questions and answers together on the historical events; 3) a class that makes students understand the historical event by inviting them into a certain time point of the past and enable them to speak about their position. While actually conducting a class, they confirmed that 1) students should fully understand a situation of certain event to present their own position and 2) classes with narrative style for describing an association between events and characters were effective, on the other hand, 3) it was a big challenge to teach historical facts and thoughts in balance. History class can be a meaningful class when the stories that are being created by both teacher and students are all alive.

Theoretical foundations for recommender systems

A recommender system (RS) is software that provides suggestions to a user in decision making process. The decision making may be for commercial purposes, personalized applications or simple information retrieval. These systems have become an important component of almost all applications that relate to some form of information retrieval and processing by using various search techniques. This chapter provides the background to theoretical foundations of RSs. We start with a traditional approach and discuss some commonly used definitions of RSs. After justifying the need for such systems in the current scenario of information overload, application areas where RSs can be useful and productive are discussed. It includes the discussion on both existing and possible future areas of applications. The list presented is not exhaustive, as many areas have opted to add value to their applications by integrating with some form of RS. The next section gives a brief overview of the phases through which RS passes in order to perform its function. The types of RSs are discussed giving their advantages and disadvantages, and content-based recommenders, collaborative filtering (CF) based recommenders, hybrid recommenders, image-based recommenders, and graph database (GDB)-based recommenders are discussed in detail. After a brief overview of the problems identified with the current RSs, some datasets are listed that may be used for research and evaluation of various RSs.
Psychotherapy: A Way Forward to Improve the Quality of Life in Otalgia Patients

Introduction: Otalgia is not only an indicator of impact of disease but also impairs the daily activities and personal behaviors as is unpleasant and disturbing for the patient.It leads to decrease in functional status up to the complete disability.Nowadays the main focus of physician is to eradicate the disease or the symptoms, leaving behind the humanistic element.In diseased state, the most important point is to assess and improve the quality of life by using multidisciplinary approach.Objective: The objective is to assess the quality of life in patients having otalgia, due to any cause.Methodology: A descriptive cross sectional study was conducted by using modified form of WHOQOL-100 and COQOL.Data was accepted, if CFI was greater than 0.9.Qualitative data were presented as frequency and percentages and quantitative data as mean with standard deviation.ANOVA was used to assess the variations among groups.Change in behavior was assessed by using the Likert scale for each domain of WHOQOL and COQOL by a ten-point scale.Results: Majority of participants about 60.2% were male and were from the age group of 16 -30 years.Most of the sample population were from lower socioeconomic class.Looking over the WHOQOL-100, higher score represented the higher quality of life.Variation among different socioeconomic status was non-significant for positive attitudes but was highly significant (p = 0.0020) for negative attitudes.Analyzing the COQOL scoring system, higher score reported the worse symptoms.The patient with high COQOL showed strong correlation with poor WHOQOL-100 score that was p value < 0.001.Conclusion: The current study highlights the need of multidisciplinary approach for the better management and improving the quality of life in patients with otalgia.

Tarantinos in the Attic: A Brief History of Quentin Tarantino’s Use of Trademarks in Storytelling

This is not write-up on Tarantino’s abilities as a filmmaker, since there is a lot of existing literature on the matter. However, what has gone unnoticed, especially across the Intellectual Property circles is his use of IP in storytelling. IP is used for many things, but its most laudable use is the enrichment of knowledge and creativity. This is why it is surprising that little has been written on the value of IP, especially trademarks, in the creative process and creative output. If anything, IP has repeatedly been a target for its perceived hindrance of the storytelling creative process. In the case of Tarantino, existing copyright has always propelled his craft forward, namely by taking inspiration and referencing extensively from everything and everywhere in the medium. However, it is through his use of trademarks that rounds up his story and characters, while at the same time circumventing IP’s perceived limitations in the creative process. Additionally, by creating his own trademarks Tarantino has complete control over the content of his creations and avoids some of the narrative pitfalls of product placement. This, however, is not to say that he does not use more conventional product placement from time to time.
A Study of Factors Influencing the Failure Rate of K1A1 Tracked Vehicle

Purpose: Studies have shown that the factors of up days of equipment, usage, age, cumulative usage, and operational location can influence the failure rate of equipment. The objectives of this study are to identify and prioritize the factors that influence the failure rate of K1A1 tanks under Korean operational circumstances.BRMethods: This study formulates a multiple regression model to achieve the objectives described above. We collected field operational data of 146 K1A1 tanks by using DELIIS (Defense Logistics Integrated Information System) over a period of three years from April 2009 to March 2012.BRResults: Yearly usage of equipment is the most significant factor influencing the failure rate of K1A1 tanks. The next most significant factors are cumulative usage and age. Operational location of equipment is not significant factor in this study, as it was in a previous study.BRConclusion: The methodology developed in this study may be applied to other equipment to explain their failure rates under diverse operating scenarios.
An Efficient Classification Technique for Text Mining and Applications

Content Mining has transformed into an indispensable research zone. Content Mining is the disclosure by PC of new; effectively darken data, by means of therefore isolating data from different created resources. Content Mining is the path toward isolating charming data or taking in or cases from the unstructured substance that are from different sources. The case disclosure from the substance and record relationship of report is an exceptional issue in information mining. These days, the measure of set away data has been hugely extending well ordered which is all things considered in the unstructured shape and can't be used for any planning to remove supportive data, so a couple of frameworks, for instance, portrayal, clustering and data extraction are available under the arrangement of substance mining. Remembering the true objective to find a capable and effective system for content request, distinctive techniques of substance game plan is starting late made. Some of them are overseen and some of them unsupervised method for record arrange. In this paper, focus is on thought of substance mining, content mining process, systems used as a piece of substance mining in like manner demonstrating some honest to goodness employments of substance mining. Additionally, brief talk of substance mining preferences and imperatives has been shown.
Multi-Observation Regression

Given a data set of $(x,y)$ pairs, a common learning task is to fit a model predicting $y$ (a label or dependent variable) conditioned on $x$.This paper considers the similar but much less-understood problem of modeling ``higher-order'' statistics of $y$'s distribution conditioned on $x$.Such statistics are often challenging to estimate using traditional empirical risk minimization (ERM) approaches.We develop and theoretically analyze an ERM-like approach with multi-observation loss functions.We propose four algorithms formalizing the concept of ERM for this problem, two of which have statistical guarantees in settings allowing both slow and fast convergence rates, but which are out-performed empirically by the other two.Empirical results illustrate potential practicality of these algorithms in low dimensions and significant improvement over standard approaches in some settings.
Comparing Korean (KS) and Chinese (GB) National Standards and its Policy Implications

본 연구의 목적은 한국(KS)과 중국(GB)의 국가표준 비교를 통해서, 한국과 중국의 국가표준이 교역관점에서 얼마나 표준정합성(standards coherence)이 있는지를 조사하여 밝히는 데 있다. 이를 위해 중국국가표준(GB) 32,077종 및 한국표준(KS) 24,080종 비교를 통해서 양국의 국가표준이 얼마나 상호 조화 특성과 정책적 시사점을 논의한다. 조사결과, 중국국가표준(GB)의 32.9%가 국제&#8228;해외표준을 수용해, KS의 63.4%와 대비해서 절반 수준인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 특히, 국제&#8228;해외표준을 수정 없이 일치수용(IDT)한 비중은 GB전체의 19.2%로서, 일치수용 비중이 60.9%인 KS의 삼분의 일 수준이다. KS와 GB의 부합화 정보를 선별하여 비교한 결과, 한중표준 일치도는 전기차(0.0%), 환경보건안전도(4.3%), 화장품(6.7%), 식품(11.2%)으로 매우 낮은 것으로 밝혀졌다. 따라서 제1수출국인 중국과의 무역기술장벽 완화를 위한 한중표준개발협력 및 국제표준공동개발 등의 상호협력 전략 수립과 이행방안 마련이 시급하다. 국가표준인 KS 개발 시 ISO, IEC뿐만 아니라, 주요 수출국에서 활용되는 GB, EN, JIS, DIN, ASTM 등의 해외표준을 함께 고려하는 개방적 표준정책 필요하다. 또한 KS 개발시 단순 국제표준 번역중심의 KS개발에서 탈피하여, 신교역환경과 국내시장에 부합하는 국가표준체계 고도화와 재정투자 확대도 고려하여야 한다.he objective of this study is to investigate the bilateral coherence of Korean and Chinese national standards in terms of trade through comparison of national standards between Korea (KS) and China (GB). For this purpose, the comparison of 32,077 Chinese national standards (GB) and 24,080 Korean standards (KS) will discuss how the national standards of the two countries are related to each other and their policy implications. As a result of the analysis, 32.9% of Chinese national standards (GB) accepted international and foreign standards and while it was found to be around half the level of 63.4% of KS. In particular, identical adoptions of international standards account for 19.2% of the total GB, while that of KS accounts for 60.9% of the total which is around three times of Chinese identical adoption. With a more detailed of comparing the KS and GB harmonization information, it was found that the full identical level between Korea and China was very low in electric vehicle sector (0.0%), environmental health safety sector (4.3%), cosmetics (6.7%) and food (11.2%). Therefore, it is imperative to establish mutual cooperation strategies such as development cooperation between Korea and China and co-development of international standards for mitigating trade technology barriers with China, which is the first exporting country of Korea. In the development of KS, a national standard, an open standard policy is needed that considers not only ISO and IEC but also GB, EN, JIS, DIN, ASTM and other international standards used in major exporting countries. Also, in developing KS, it is necessary to move from mainly identical translation of international standards to upgrade the national standard system and financial investment to meet the new trading environment and domestic market.

Infectious Disease Prediction Modelling Using Synthetic Optimisation Approaches

Research is presented in this work to improve classification performance when using real-world training data for forecasting disease prediction likelihood. Optimisation techniques currently available are capable of providing highly efficient and accurate results however, performance potential can often be restricted when dealing with limited training resources. A novel approach is proposed with this work known as Synthetic Instance Model Optimisation (SIMO) which introduces Sequential Model-based Algorithm Configuration (SMAC) optimisation combined with Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) for improving optimised prediction modelling. The SIMO approach generates additional synthetic instances from a limited training sample while simultaneously aiming to increase best algorithm performance. Results provided yield a partial solution for improving optimum algorithm performance when handling sparse training resources. Using the SIMO approach, noticeable performance accuracy and f-measure improvements were achieved over standalone SMAC optimisation. Results showed significant improvement when comparing collective training data with SIMO instance optimisation including individual performance accuracy increases of up to 46% and a mean overall increase for the entire 240 configurations of 13.96% over standard SMAC optimisation.

The implementation of the Pollard factorization method in the cryptanalysis of the Rabin public key algorithm

Rabin algorithm is an asymmetric cryptography algorithm that is used to obfuscate messages by using two different keys that are used in encryption and decryption process. Rabin algorithm is considered secure since its protection depends on the hardness of factoring a very large odd number into two very large prime numbers. Various factorization methods that exist are Fermat, Kraitchik, Euler, and variants of Pollard method. In this research, we test the security of the Rabin algorithm by cryptanalyzing its public key into its two private keys using the Pollard factorization algorithm. In order to check that a very large number is prime or composite, we use the Lehmann algorithm. Our research shows that Pollard is able to factorize some Rabin public keys and the size of the public key is not directly proportional to the processing time.
