When the LRT is not feasible, we define quasi-LRT(QLRT) as a modification of the LRT Under some appropriate conditions the QLRT shares Bahadur optimality and Bartlett Adjustability with the LRT. When we can find maximum likelihood estimator under the null parameter space but not under the unrestricted parameter space, our QLRT is Bahadur optimal as is the LRT We suggest the stopping rule of the Newton-Raphson iterations for constructing the QLRT statistics which are Bartlett adjustable.

We consider a Bayesian test of independence in a two-way contingency table that has some zero cells. To do this, we take a three-stage hierarchical Bayesian model under each hypothesis. For prior, we use Dirichlet density to model the marginal cell and each cell probabilities. Our method does not require complicated computation such as a Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to draw samples from each posterior density of parameters. We draw samples using a Gibbs sampler with a grid method. For complicated posterior formulas, we apply the Monte-Carlo integration and the sampling important resampling algorithm. We compare the values of the Bayes factor with the results of a chi-square test and the likelihood ratio test.

When we observe binary responses in a cluster (such as rat lab-subjects), they are usually correlated to each other. In clustered binomial counts, the independence assumption is violated and we encounter an extra-variation. In the presence of extra-variation, the ordinary statistical analyses of binomial data are inappropriate to apply. In testing the homogeneity of proportions between several treatment groups, the classical Pearson chi-squared test has a severe flaw in the control of Type I error rates. We focus on modifying the chi-squared statistic by incorporating variance inflation factors. We suggest a method to adjust data in terms of dispersion estimate based on a quasi-likelihood model. We explain the testing procedure via an illustrative example as well as compare the performance of a modified chi-squared test with competitive statistics through a Monte Carlo study.

본 논문은 4개의 송신 안테나를 사용 할 경우 임의의 QAM 변조 방식과 준정지 Rayleigh 페이딩 채널 환경에서 최대 다이버시티 이득을 획득하고 더불어 full-rate을 획득하는 새로운 QO-STBC(quasi-orthogonal space-time block code)를 제안한다. 특히 제안된 부호는 기존의 MDC-QO-STBC(minimum decoding complex QO-STBC)와 같이 준직교 특성을 만족하여 수신단에서 2개의 실수 심벌들로 구성된 4개의 그룹들에 대하여 각각 독립적인 ML(maximum likelihood) 복호가 가능하다는 장점을 갖는다. 전산 실험 결과 제안된 부호는 모든 변조 방식들에 대하여 MDC-QO-STBC와 동일한 비트 오율(BER) 성능을 보여준다. 하지만 제안된 부호는 모든 송신 안테나들에서 성상 회전 이전의 신호들에 비해 PAPR(peak-to-average power ratio) 값들이 증가하는 기존의 MDC-QO-STBC와 달리 오직 2개의 송신 안테나들에서만 PAPR의 증가가 발생하도록 수정 가능하며 따라서 실제 송신 시스템 구현 시 훨씬 큰 이점을 갖게 된다.

This paper describes a low-density parity-check (LDPC) coded index modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with quasi-orthogonal sequence (IM-OFDM-QOS) and provides performance evaluations of the proposed system. By using QOS as the spreading code, IM-OFDM-QOS scheme can improve the reception performance than IM-OFDM-SS scheme for a given data rate. On the other hand, LDPC code is widely used to the latest wireless communication systems as forward error correction (FEC) scheme and has Shannon-limit approaching performance. Therefore, by applying LDPC code to IM-OFDM-QOS system as FEC scheme, the reception performance can be further improved. Simulation results show that significant signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gains can be obtained for LDPC coded IM-OFDM-QOS system compared to the LDPC coded IM-OFDM-SS system and the SNR gain increases with the higher code rate.

공간-시간 트렐리스 부호에서 기존에 제안된 ML(maximum likelihood) 복호법과 PRC(principal ratio combianing) 복호법을 아우르는 준최적 복호법인 GPRC(generalized PRC) 기법을 제안한다. GPRC는 수신안테나들을 K개의 그룹으로 나누어 각 그룹에 PRC 기법을 적용하는 것이다. GPRC에서는 수신안테나 그룹핑 방법이 여러 가지이므로 K가 정해졌을 때 최적의 그룹핑 규칙을 제안한다. 이때 최종 성능 차이를 간단하게 예측할 수 있는 성능지표(PI, performance index)를 이용할 수 있다. 특히 수신안테나 간 상관(correlation)이 있을 때 무선 채널 계수를 구하고, 성능 지표를 평가한다. 마지막으로 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션으로 이론적 성능을 검증한다.

We design a new rate-3/2 full-diversity orthogonal space-time block code (STBC) for QPSK and 2 transmit antennas (TX) and 4 transmit antennas (TX) by enlarging the signalling set from the set of quaternions used in the Alamouti[I] and extendedcode and using additional members of the set of orthogonal matrices or Quasi-orthogonal matrices and higher than rate-5/4. Selective power scaling of information symbols is used to guarantee full-diversity while maximizing the coding gain (CG) and minimizing the transmitted signal peak-to-minimum power ratio (PMPR). The optimum power scaling factor is derived analytically and shown to outpetform schemes based only on constellation rotation while still enjoying a low-complexity maximum likelihood (ML) decoding algorithm.

Diplophonia is generally defined as the perception of more than one fundamental frequency component in a voice. Its perceptual aspect has traditionally been used to evaluate diplophonia because the perceptions can be easily evaluated, but there are limitations in the validity of the reliability of the intra- and inter-raters, examination situation, and variation of voice sample. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to confirm the reliability and accuracy of auditory perceptual evaluation by comparing non-invasive indirect assessment methods (sound waveform and EGG analysis), and to identify their usefulness with diplophonia. A total of 28 diplophonic voices and 39 non-periodic voices were assessed. Three raters assessed the diplophonia by performing an auditory perception evaluation and identifying the quasi-periodic perturbations of the acoustic waveform and EGG. Among the three discrimination methods, intra- and inter-rater reliability, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive likelihood ratio, and negative likelihood ratio were examined, and the McNemar test was performed to compare the discriminant agreement. The accuracy of the auditory perceptual evaluation (86.57%) was not significantly different from that of sound waveform acoustic (88.06%), but it was significantly different from that of EGG (83.33%). The reading time (6.02 s) for the auditory perceptual evaluation was significantly different from that for sound waveform analysis (30.15 s) and EGG analysis (16.41 s). In the discrimination of diplophonia, auditory perceptual evaluation has sufficient reliability and accuracy as compared to sound waveform and EGG. Since immediate feedback is possible, auditory perceptual evaluation is more convenient. Therefore, it can continue to be used as a tool to discriminate diplophonia in clinical practice.

SD(Sphere Decoding)는 페이딩 환경에서 ML(Maximum Likelihood)성능을 만족하지만 채널환경이 나빠질수록 매우 복잡도가 증가하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 특징을 같은 기존 SD를 개선하고자 기존의 ML성능을 유지 시키면서 복잡도를 줄이기 위한 방안으로 부분적으로 OSIC(Ordered Successive Interference Cancellation)를 결합하는 시스템을 제안하다. 또한, SNR(신호 대 잡음비: Signal to Noise Ratio)에 따라서 복잡도 및 비트오류율(BER : Bit Error Rate)의 성능이 최적으로 동작하는 복호기를 적응적으로 사용 Adaptive OSIC-SD 알고리즘 제안한다. 모의실험 결과, 제안된 시스템의 비트오류율은 기존의 SD와 거의 비슷한 성능을 보이면서, 일정하고 더 낮은 복잡도를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a breastfeeding support program (BSP) on the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding and growth in late-preterm infants. Methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted. The participants were 40 late preterm infants (LPIs), of whom 20 were assigned to the experimental group and 20 to the control group. For the mothers in the experimental group, a BSP was provided prior to the LPIs' discharge and reinforced once a week for 4 weeks. Information on the feeding type was collected by observation and the LPIs' body weight was measured. Results: There were significant differences in feeding type by group and time. Exclusive breastfeeding was 5.18 times more common in the experimental group than in the control group (odds ratio=5.18, 95% confidence interval=1.11~16.70). However, weekly weight gain did not show a significant relationship with group and time (F=0.40, p=.712). Conclusion: The BSP was helpful for increasing the rate of exclusive breastfeeding in LPIs. Furthermore, the LPIs in the experimental group, which had a higher likelihood of being exclusively breastfed, showed an equivalent amount of weight gain as the LPIs in the control group, in which infants were more likely to be formula-fed.
