This study aims to develop a comprehensive predictive model for Digital Quality Management (DQM) and to analyze the impact of various quality activities on different levels of DQM. By employing the Classification And Regression Tree (CART) methodology, we are able to present predictive scenarios that elucidate how varying quantitative levels of quality activities influence the five major categories of DQM. The findings reveal that the operation level of quality circles and the promotion level of suggestion systems are pivotal in enhancing DQM levels. Furthermore, the study emphasizes that an effective reward system is crucial to maximizing the effectiveness of these quality activities. Through a quantitative approach, this study demonstrates that for ventures and small-medium enterprises, expanding suggestion systems and implementing robust reward mechanisms can significantly improve DQM levels, particularly when the operation of quality circles is challenging. The research provides valuable insights, indicating that even in the absence of fully operational quality circles, other mechanisms can still drive substantial improvements in DQM. These results are particularly relevant in the context of digital transformation, offering practical guidelines for enterprises to establish and refine their quality management strategies. By focusing on suggestion systems and rewards, businesses can effectively navigate the complexities of digital transformation and achieve higher levels of quality management.

This paper analyzed the correlation between injection molding factors through correlation analysis. In addition, the decision-tree model, which is a white box model with excellent explanatory power, was used to obtain optimal molding conditions that satisfy multiple constraint conditions. First, 243 data to be used in the experiment were created through a full factorial design. Second, a correlation analysis was conducted to understand the correlation. Third, to verify the decision-tree model, the prediction performance was evaluated using RMSE. As a result, good prediction performance was confirmed. A decision-tree experiment analysis was conducted. As a result of the progress, the same results as the correlation analysis were derived. Based on the previous analysis results, optimal molding conditions were applied to CAE. As a result, the amount of deformation in the multi-cavity could be improved by about 1.1% and 2.72% while satisfying the constraint.

Most of the open-source decision tree algorithms are based on three splitting criteria (Entropy, Gini Index, and Gain Ratio). Therefore, the advantages and disadvantages of these three popular algorithms need to be studied more thoroughly. Comparisons of the three algorithms were mainly performed with respect to the predictive performance. In this work, we conducted a comparative experiment on the splitting criteria of three decision trees, focusing on their interpretability. Depth, homogeneity, coverage, lift, and stability were used as indicators for measuring interpretability. To measure the stability of decision trees, we present a measure of the stability of the root node and the stability of the dominating rules based on a measure of the similarity of trees. Based on 10 data collected from UCI and Kaggle, we compare the interpretability of DT (Decision Tree) algorithms based on three splitting criteria. The results show that the GR (Gain Ratio) branch-based DT algorithm performs well in terms of lift and homogeneity, while the GINI (Gini Index) and ENT (Entropy) branch-based DT algorithms performs well in terms of coverage. With respect to stability, considering both the similarity of the dominating rule or the similarity of the root node, the DT algorithm according to the ENT splitting criterion shows the best results.

As a non-parametric data mining method, decision tree classification has performed well in many applications. The complexity of the model increases as the decision tree algorithm proceeds to grow the decision tree as the rule of decision making. While the increase of the complexity enhances the accuracy, it degrades the generalization which predicts the unseen data. This phenomenon is called as overfitting. To avoid the overfitting, pruning has been introduced. Pruning enables to make the generalization better, reduces the complexity, and avoids the overfitting. Although various pruning methods have been proposed, selecting the best pruning methods or making balance between complexity and generalization with pruning is not a simple problem. In this paper, we explore the methods of pruning and analyze them to suggest the optimal approach for applications.

PURPOSES: This study was initiated to analyze the characteristics of bus traffic accidents, by bus types, using the decision tree in order to establish customized safety alternatives by bus types, including the intra-city bus, rural area bus, and inter-city bus. METHODS: In this study, the major elements involved in bus traffic accidents were identified using decision trees and CHAID algorithm. The decision tree was used to identify the characteristics of major elements influencing bus traffic accidents. In addition, the CHAID algorithm was applied to branch the decision trees. RESULTS : The number of casualties and severe injuries are high in bus accidents involving pedestrians, bicycles, motorcycles, etc. In the case of light injury caused by bus accidents, different results are found. In the case of intra-city bus accidents, the probability of light injury is of 77.2% when boarding a non-owned car and breaching of duty to drive safely are involved. In the case of rural area bus accidents, the elements showing the highest probability of light injury are boarding an owned car, vehicle-to-vehicle accidents, and breaching of duty to drive safely. In the case of intra-city bus accidents, boarding owned car, streets, and vehicle-to-vehicle accidents work as the critical elements. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, the bus accident data were categorized by bus types, and then the influential elements were identified using decision trees. As a result, the characteristics of bus accidents were found to be different depending on bus types. The findings in this study are expected to be utilized in establishing effective alternatives to reduce bus accidents.

In the manufacturing industry fields, thousands of quality characteristics are measured in a day because the systems of process have been automated through the development of computer and improvement of techniques. Also, the process has been monitored in database in real time. Particularly, the data in the design step of the process have contributed to the product that customers have required through getting useful information from the data and reflecting them to the design of product. In this study, first, characteristics and variables affecting to them in the data of the design step of the process were analyzed by decision tree to find out the relation between explanatory and target variables. Second, the tolerance of continuous variables influencing on the target variable primarily was shown by the application of algorithm of decision tree, C4.5. Finally, the target variable, loss, was calculated by a loss function of Taguchi and analyzed. In this paper, the general method that the value of continuous explanatory variables has been used intactly not to be transformed to the discrete value and new method that the value of continuous explanatory variables was divided into 3 categories were compared. As a result, first, the tolerance obtained from the new method was more effective in decreasing the target variable, loss, than general method. In addition, the tolerance levels for the continuous explanatory variables to be chosen of the major variables were calculated. In further research, a systematic method using decision tree of data mining needs to be developed in order to categorize continuous variables under various scenarios of loss function.

Self-efficacy (one's perceptions of their capability to perform a task) plays an important role in work-related performance and motivation. For example, self-efficacy is known to have much influence on job performance, job satisfaction, motivation, etc. As such it is important to know what factors collectively enhance the selfefficacy of employees, so that injured workers contribute to the organization they belong to after they come back to their workplace. The aim of this study is to identify such industrial accident-related factors and extract rules among the factors in order to establish self-efficacy enhancement strategies for injured workers. In this study, a binary decision tree model for self-efficacy prediction was built using a panel data provided from Korea Workers’ Compensation & Welfare Service. As a result, eight variables with the largest influence on self-efficacy were selected in the prediction model, and it correctly classified 70.1% of instances. The result suggests social support during the treatment period and offering paid time off such as vacation leave, sick leave and bereavement leave are important factors to enhance self-efficacy that will improve the work performance of injured workers.

Currently, R&D investment of government is increased dramatically. However, the budget of the government is different depend- ing on the size of ministry and priorities, and then it is difficult to obtain consensus on the budget. They did not establish decision support systems to evaluate and execute R&D budget. In this paper, we analyze factors affecting research funds by linear regression and decision tree analysis in order to increase investment efficiency in national research project. Moreover, we suggested strategies that budget is estimated reasonably.

Due to the convenience of use and rapid access to their information to find, many Internet users utilize the search engines or portal sites to find their information and web sites. However, many researches related with web site evaluation pointed out that many factors have to be considered to increase the usefulness of the site and the degree of user's preference about the site. In this research, based on the previous research, preference factors are derived to evaluate the portal sites. And then, five portal sites are evaluated by the questionnaire. CHAID, a decision tree technique, is used to analyze the results of survey and the relationships of preference factors. This research can be an indicator when we analyze the preference factors of portal site and other kinds of web sites using decision tree.

Classification is an important area in a data mining. There are various ways in classification methodologies : the decision tree and the neural network, etc. Recently, Rough set theory has been presented as a method for classification. Rough set theory is a new approach in decision making in the presence of uncertainty and vagueness. In the process of constructing the tree, appropriate attributes have to be selected as nodes of the tree. In this paper, we present a new approach to selection of attributes for the construction of decision tree using the Rough set theory. The suggested method makes more simple classification rules in the decision tree and reduces the volume of the data to be treated.
