Automatic Recognition Of Marine Traffic Flow Regions Based On Kernel Density Estimation, Wei-Feng Li, Bin Mei, Guo-You Shi Feb 2018

Automatic Recognition Of Marine Traffic Flow Regions Based On Kernel Density Estimation, Wei-Feng Li, Bin Mei, Guo-You Shi

Journal of Marine Science and Technology–Taiwan

The automatic recognition of traffic flow regions can provide decision support for ships’ automatic route design and route planning. This study analyzes the characteristics of ships’ trajectory structures and builds a course and distance model. Pearson correlation coefficients are used for measuring the similarities of the models and clustering trajectories, and kernel density estimation is used for estimating the probability density of clustered trajectories. An automatic recognition algorithm for traffic flow regions is proposed. This study examines ships’ automatic identification system data in Laotieshan channel, China. The traffic separation scheme regions and traffic intersectional regions are recognized automatically, and the …

Make Up For Lost Time And Money: Using The Lanham Act To Regulate The Cosmetic Industry, Maria Monastra Feb 2018

Make Up For Lost Time And Money: Using The Lanham Act To Regulate The Cosmetic Industry, Maria Monastra

William & Mary Business Law Review

In recent years, the cosmetic industry has experienced an increase in litigation brought on by consumers in their efforts to protect themselves from cosmetics that are either unsafe or falsely advertised. The Supreme Court of the United States’ discussion in POM Wonderful v. Coca-Cola Co. of the Lanham Act, the United States’ principal false advertising statute, clarified the breadth and depth of allowable lawsuits brought under the statute in matters which also concern the Food, Drug, & Cosmetic Act (FDCA). The case centered on a detailed discussion of the issue of federal preemption. Although the decision directly involved only the …

A Zigbee/Rfid Safety System At The Seaport, Sanja Bauk, Diego Garcia Gonzalez, Anke Schmeink

Journal of Marine Science and Technology–Taiwan

The paper examines three potential safety solutions for the protection of port workers, which are based on a junction of Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID), as an automatic identification, data collecting and positioning system from one side, and ZigBee, as a low energy consumption communication technology from another. The considered solutions are placed in the context of the individual needs and capacities of the developing Port of Bar in Montenegro (South East Europe), which has been operating in the transitional environment for the past two decades. The transitional circumstances prevent the port from adopting advanced occupational and environmental safety systems. Therefore …


Optimal Imperfect Preventive Maintenance Logistic Inventory Model With Backorder And Minimal Repair, Yuh-Ling Su, Ming-Feng Yang, Mengru Tu, Yi Lin Feb 2018

Optimal Imperfect Preventive Maintenance Logistic Inventory Model With Backorder And Minimal Repair, Yuh-Ling Su, Ming-Feng Yang, Mengru Tu, Yi Lin

Journal of Marine Science and Technology–Taiwan

This study developed and evaluated an integrated inventory model incorporating production programs and maintenance to model an imperfect process of a deteriorating production system in firm’s activities of inbound logistics and production. Two preventive maintenance activities are performed during each production run period: perfect preventive maintenance and imperfect preventive maintenance. The perfect preventive maintenance’s probability depends on the number of imperfect maintenance operations performed resulting from the last renewal cycle. The occurrence of a failure causes defective products which have a certain number of the ability of rework and not to be rework, and those cannot rework will lead to …

Unlocking The Potential In Your Workforce Data, Quality Improvement Center For Workforce Development

Other QIC-WD Products

Communicating complex ideas to diverse stakeholders is central to reliable decision making. Stakeholders may vary greatly in their interest, familiarity, or expertise with data regarding a policy, program, or practice. Well-designed data visualizations provide a platform for engaging stakeholders in ways that are tailored to their interest, familiarity, and expertise. However, research indicates that visualizations are not always designed effectively to reliably motivate users to understand and ultimately use the data in their decision-making (Evergreen, 2011; Cawthon & Moere, 2007). Thoughtful and engaging visualizations demand the stakeholders’ attention and can facilitate the comprehension of findings (Hillstrom & Yantis, 1994; Treisman, …

Fiscal Policy, Consumption Risk, And Stock Returns: Evidence From Us States, Zhi Da, Mitch Warachka, Hayong Yun Feb 2018

Fiscal Policy, Consumption Risk, And Stock Returns: Evidence From Us States, Zhi Da, Mitch Warachka, Hayong Yun

Business Faculty Articles and Research

We find that consumption risk is lower in states that implement countercyclical fiscal policies. Moreover, firms with an investor base that is concentrated in countercyclical states have lower stock returns, along with firms that relocate their headquarters to a countercyclical state. Therefore, countercyclical fiscal policies lower the consumption risk of investors and, consequently, their required equity return premium. This conclusion is confirmed by smaller declines in market participation during recessions in countercyclical states. Overall, the location of a firm’s investor base enables state-level fiscal policy to influence stock returns.

Nurturing The Next Generation Of Discoverers, Creators And Thinkers, José M. Torres

Keynotes, Speeches, and Lectures

Over 154,000 babies are born in Illinois each year. By the end of my talk today, 10 children will be born. These children will graduate high school in 2036.

Imagine the kind of world these children will inherit.

How do we prepare them for this future world?

Consider just three exponential technologies that are affecting us today and imagine where these technological improvements may be in the year 2036.
