This study uses Korea's equity fund-related data ranging from Jan. 2002 to Apr. 2010 to analyze the existence of cross-subsidization among funds managed by the same management company. The findings are as follows: i) a transfer of performance outcome is confirmed to move from low-fee funds to high-fee funds, meaning that management companies tend to maximize their own interest than investors' return. And such a tendency has been strengthened since 2008. ii) young funds overperform old funds, iii) funds with high returns in the previous quarter perform better than funds with low return in the same period. These results suggest that in order to protect investors, it is necessary to conduct close monitoring on transactions that might undermine the benefits of investors and comprehensive evaluation on the capability of management companies.

Both of district heating(DH) system and natural gas(NG) supply system have benefits in clean energy supply and having energy efficiency and savings. The issue of duplicate investment and supply requirement of only for cook occur several conflicts such as destruction of the Beneficiary Pays Principle and Cross Subsidization, etc. Under the circumstance, the purposes of this research are to consider several issues of cross subsidization in NG and DH industries and to present the following alternatives for resolving related problems. First of all, a charging mechanism in the energy cost must be improved so as to maintain the positive relation between cost and benefit. That is, the beneficiary-pay principle must be strictly applied. Secondly, the extended supply of DH through HOB(Heat Only Boiler) must be strictly limited. Finally, we need to improve efficiency for the benefit of market participants.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive block quantization method. The propose method perfrect reconstructs side information without high complexity in the encoder side, as transmitting motion vectors from a decoder to an encoder side. Also, at the encoder side, residual signals between reconstructed side information and original frame are adaptively quantized to minimize parity bits to be transmitted to the decoder. The proposed method can effectively allocate bits based on bit error rate of side information. Also, we can achieved bit-saving by transmission of parity bits based on the error correction ability of the LDPC channel decoder, because we can know bit error rate and positions of error bit in encoder side. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm achieves bit-saving by around 66% and delay of feedback channel, compared with the convntional algorithm.

교차방위법은 해군 함정이 연안항해에서 주로 사용하는 함위 산출법이다. 항해 보조장비가 많이 개발되었음에도 불구하고 실물표를 대상으로 측정하는 실측위치이기 때문에 해군함정에서 현재까지 가장 폭넓게 활용되고 있다. 교차방위법의 정확도에 미치는 영향요소는 여러가지가 있지만, 본 논문에서는 함정의 기본속력이 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 긴급한 작전상황의 경우 함정은 안전속력보다 빠른 속력으로 협수로를 통과해야 한다. 이러한 작전환경에서 속력의 증가가 얼마나 위치 정확도의 오차를 가져오는지 확인하여 함정을 운용하는 지휘관에게 참고자료를 제공하고자 한다.

This study compared the utility of walking aids, and activities of daily life depending on the ability of people with mobility disabilities to use walking aids. Data were extracted from the Korea Welfare Panel Study in 2014. Data of 435,947 individuals were analyzed using chi-square and t-tests. The findings from this study showed that disabled persons who cannot use walking aids independently were more likely to have a severe disability level and a lower level of daily activities than the independent group. The level of social participation and leisure activities were also significantly lower in the dependent than the independent group. Therefore, walking aids should be tailored for individuals depending on their level of independence for using walking aids.

The purpose of this study is to find ways to utilize public-private partnerships from the perspective of governance in order to effectively promote urban regeneration projects and establish a business structure. The results of the study are summarized as follows. First, from the perspective of governance, the types of public-private partnerships in urban regeneration projects can be classified into central government-led, local government-led, private business-led, and local residents and community organizations-led. Second, it is confirmed through overseas case analysis that developed countries are effectively promoting urban regeneration projects through the formation of various public-private partnerships. Third, as a way to utilize public-private partnerships in Korean urban regeneration projects, it was proposed to diversify the types and size of urban regeneration projects, design a system to utilize various public-private partnerships, use cross-assistance methods, and form social capital necessary for transparent and effective private partnerships.

This study examined the effectiveness of a short thumb splint and a glove type splint which combined features of a fitness glove in order to improve hand function and performance of functional task after traumatic brain injury. One subject with traumatic brain injury participated in this study and wore a short thumb splint and customized glove type splint. His hand function was significantly improved when comparing to that of not using those splints. In addition, using the glove type splint was more significant to perform functional tasks than using the short thumb splint. The findings of this study identified that hand function of people with traumatic brain injury was improved by using those splints as an occupational therapy service and it is necessary to adapt the customized splints according to the personal characteristics.

Since the performance of deep learning techniques has recently been proven in the field of image processing, there are many attempts to perform classification, analysis, and detection of images using such techniques in various fields. Among them, the expectation of medical image analysis software, which can serve as a medical diagnostic assistant, is increasing. In this study, we are attention to the capsule endoscope image, which has a large data set and takes a long time to judge. The purpose of this paper is to distinguish the gastrointestinal landmarks and to estimate the gastrointestinal transition location that are common to all patients in the judging of capsule endoscopy and take a lot of time. To do this, we designed CNN-based Classifier that can identify gastrointestinal landmarks, and used it to estimate the gastrointestinal transition location by filtering the results. Then, we estimate gastrointestinal transition location about seven of eight patients entered the suspected gastrointestinal transition area. In the case of change from the stomach to the small intestine(pylorus), and change from the small intestine to the large intestine(ileocecal valve), we can check all eight patients were found to be in the suspected gastrointestinal transition area. we can found suspected gastrointestinal transition area in the range of 100 frames, and if the reader plays images at 10 frames per second, the gastrointestinal transition could be found in 10 seconds.

In this paper, we propose a channel estimation of side information method based received motion vectors for distributed video coding. The proposed decoder estimates motion vectors of side information and transmits it to the encoder. As the proposed encoder generates side information which is the same to one in the decoder with received motion vectors, accuracy of side information of the decoder is assessed and it is transmitted to decoder. The proposed decoder can also estimate accurate crossover probability with received error information. As the proposed method conducts correct belief propagation, computational complexity of the channel decoder decreases and error correction capability is significantly improved with the smaller amount of parity bits. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is better in rate-distortion performance and it is faster than several conventional distributed video coding methods.

For the efficient and stable operation of autonomous vehicles or advanced driver assistance systems being actively studied nowadays, it is important to determine the positions of the vehicle accurately and economically. A satellite based navigation system is mainly used for positioning, but it has a limitation in signal blockage areas. To overcome this limitation, sensor fusion methods including additional sensors such as an inertial navigation system have been mainly proposed but the high sensor cost has been a problem. In this work, we develop a vehicle position estimation algorithm using in-vehicle sensors and a low-cost imaging sensor without any expensive additional sensor. We determine the vehicle positions using the velocity and yaw-rate of a car from the in-vehicle sensors and the position and attitude of the camera based on the single photo resection process. For the evaluation, we built a prototype system, acquired test data using the system, and estimated the trajectory. The proposed algorithm shows the accuracy of about 40% higher than an in-vehicle sensor only method.
