대조도와 관용도사이의 손실 교환은 투사 방사선 촬영에 있어서 잘 알려져 있고 또한 오랫동안 지속되어온 영상의 질에 있어서의 제약이었다. 전자적인 영상획득의 도입으로 한 영상 내에 넓은 영역의 X-Tay 노출을 포획하는 것이 가능해 졌다. 그러나, 진단에 필요한 세부영역 들을 위해 적절한 대조도를 유지하는 반면, 일반적으로 기대되는 관용도 범위 이외의 정보가 시각화 되어지는 것과 같은 영상의 rendering과 displaying의 문제가 남아 있었다. 이 문서에 묘사되는 EVP(Enhanced Visualization Processing)는 이 문제를 중점적으로 다룬다. 방대한 진단용 CR 영상 데이터베이스로부터 선택된 14개의 검사유형 당 각각 5개의 영상들을 포함한, 총 70개의 영상들을 사용하여 임상 보고서가 제출되었다. 각 영상에 대해, control rendering은 현재 개발되어 있는 automatic tone scaling algorithm(자동 톤 스케일 알고리즘)에 의해 생성되었고, test rendering은 그 control of image에 EVP를 인가함에 의해 생성되었다. 10명의 radiologist들은 각자 개별적으로 140개의 이미지들(70개의 test renderings와 70개의 control renderings)을 9점의 진단 상의 품질 척도로 평가했다. EVP는 세부 대조도의 부당한 손실 없이 증가된 노출 관용도를 제공했다. 많은 영상에서 EVP는 과소 투과 영역에서의 정보의 손실을 줄여주고, 반면 과다 투과 영역의 밝게 빛나는 현상을 실제적으로 감소시켰다. 진단상의 품질 평가는 EVP image와 control image 모두 평균적으로 높았다. 그럼에도 EVP images의 평균 등위는 control image의 그것보다 1 단계 완전히 높은 범위에 있는 것으로 평가되었다. 쌍으로 그 영상들을 보면, EVP images의 76%가 일치하는 control images의 평가 단계보다 1 또는 그 이상 높은 범주인 것으로 평가되었고, 반면 control image의 6% 만이 일치하는 EVP 영상보다 우수한 것으로 평가되었다. 유사한 결과가 연구된 14개의 검사유형에 대해 획득되었다.

최근 기후변화와 하천 제방의 노후화로 인해 수재해 위험이 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 그러나 기존의 재래적인 하천 제방의 점검은 많은 인력과 예산 소모로 비효율적이며 제방 전구간 점검의 한계, 객관성의 한계 등 많은 한계점들이 존재하여 효과적인 홍수 대응을 위해 새로운 모니터링과 예/경보 시스템의 구축이 반드시 필요한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구는 인공위성을 이용한 하천 제방 변위 산출과 수문학적 요인과의 관계 분석을 통해 하천 제방 건강상태 모니터링 시스템 방안을 제안하고자 한다. Sentinel-1 SAR 영상과 유럽 우주국(ESA)의 위성 영상 전처리 도구인 SNAP을 이용하여 2020년 여름 붕괴된 남원시의 금곡교 제방의 봄(4~5월), 여름(7~8월)의 변위를 산출하였고, 제방의 위험도 산정을 위해 토양수분관계를 분석하였다. 선행 연구(김상우,2019)에서는 농촌진흥청에서 제공하는 TDR(Time Domain Reflectrometry) 관측값과 Sentinel-1 SAR의 후방 산란계수의 토양수분관계가 일치하는 경향을 제시하여, 본 연구에서는 이를 이용하여 제방 후 방산란계수를 산출하고 변위와 토양수분도의 상관관계를 분석하여 변위 추세와 토양수분도의 추세가 일치하는 경향을 확인하였다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 향후에는 위성을 이용하여 산출한 제방의 변위와 토양수분도의 불확실성을 보완하고 기온, 수위, 토양도, 지하수위와 같은 수문기상학적 데이터의 분석을 통해 초정밀, 자동화 하천 제방 건강상태 모니터링 시스템이 구현 가능할 것으로 기대한다.

Three research hypotheses expected when working with a mobile app were verified. As follows: (1) Usability varies depending on the external structure of the tree-view menu. (2) If the menu arrangement is different from the script expected by users, the usability is poor. And (3) the effects of each of these two hypotheses vary depending on the complexity of the task. To this end, a script for booking accommodations expected by undergraduate students was written, and an experiment was designed with the task completion time and error rate as dependent variables. The experiment was conducted by implementing a prototype for reservation system on a smartphone As a result, while the overall performance was unfavorable when the task was complicated, the superiority of sectional menu was prominent when the task was complicated, and positive responses were observed when the menu arrangement in a complicated task matched user expectations. By discussing these results, it was found that when designing a procedural menu on a mobile screen, we come up with measures to minimize the burden of working memory, consider what tree-views are for the task, and that in complex tasks, menus should be arranged according to the scripts expected by users.

The OTT (Over The Top) platform promotes itself as a distinctive competitive advantage in that it allows users to stay on the platform longer and visit more often through a Personalized Recommendation Service. In this study, the characteristics of the Personalized Recommendation Service are divided into three categories: recommendation accuracy, recommendation diversity, and recommendation novelty. Then proposed a research model which affects the usefulness of users to recognize recommendation services by each characteristics and leads to satisfaction of expectations. The result of conducting an online survey of 300 people in their 20s and 30s who subscribe Netflix shows that the perceived usefulness increased when the accuracy, variety, and novelty of Netflix's Recommendation Service were high. It was also confirmed that high perceived usefulness leads to satisfaction of expectations before and after Netflix use. The derived research results can confirm the importance of evaluating the personalized recommendation service in terms of user experience and provide implications for ways to improve the quality of recommendation services.

In this paper, we evaluate the effectiveness of previous shading algorithms in depicting shape of 3d objects. We perform a study in which people are shown an image of one of ten 3D objects shaded with one of eight styles and asked to orient a gauge to coincide with the surface normal at many positions on the object's surface. The normal estimates are compared with each other and with ground truth data provided by a registered 3D surface model to analyze accuracy and precision. Our experiments suggest that people interpret certain shape differently depending on shading of 3d object. This paper offers substantial evidence that current computer graphics shading algorithms can effectively depict shape of 3d objects where the algorithms have the properties of lots of tone steps and uniformly distributed tone steps. This type of analysis can guide the future development of new CG shading algorithms in computer graphics for the purpose of shape perception.

Hwang(2022; J.KWRA, 55, 10)은 수심 적분 모형으로 불연속 지형을 경사로 완화하지 않고 직접 해석하는 Hwang(2015; J.KSCE, 35, 6)의 기법이 적용된 수치 모형의 정확도를 높이기 위해 지형 전면에 실제로 작용하는 정수압 분포와 차이를 해명하는 흐름률 보정 계수(flux correction coefficient)를 도입하였다. 직각 광정 위어 실험 중에서 널리 알려진 다섯 가지 월류 실험으로부터 218회의 시행을 추려 실험과 모의에서 월류량 값이 서로 잘 일치하는 흐름률 보정 계수를 각각 산정하였는데, 이때 광정 위어를 지나는 흐름을 모의하기 위해 계산 영역을 평면 2차원으로 두고 삼각형 계산 격자로 분할하였다(Hwang, 2022). 실험에 사용된 실험 수로들이 수로의 길이 방향으로 그 폭이 일정하므로 옆벽의 영향이 크지 않다면 수로의 단위 폭에 모형을 적용함으로써 계산 영역의 차원을 한 수준 낮출 수 있다. 실질적으로 1차원 모의가 되어 모의 시간을 획기적으로 줄일 수 있으므로 다양한 분석이 가능하겠으나, 2차원 모의로부터 결정된 흐름률 보정 계수를 수정없이 그대로 적용하는 것이 적절한지 검토할 필요가 있다. 이 연구에서는 Hwang(2022)이 검토한 218회의 직각 광정 위어 실험 시행에 수로의 단위 폭에 불연속 지형을 직접 해석할 수 있는 Hwang(2015)의 1차원 모형을 적용하고 모의와 실험에서 월류량의 차이가 최소가 되는 흐름률 보정 계수를 각각 산정하였다. 결정된 흐름률 보정 계수의 평균값을 별도로 선정된 두 가지 직각 광정 위어 실험에 적용하였으며, 보정에 따른 모형의 성능을 평가하기 위해 Willmott의 일치 지표(index of agreement)를 이용하였다. 흐름률 보정 계수를 적용하였을 때, 한 실험 경우에 대해 모형의 성능이 대폭 개선됨을 확인하였고 성능 개선이 미미한 나머지 실험 경우는 보정 전에 일치 지표가 이미 상당히 높은 편이었다. 2차원 문제에 이어 1차원 모형의 적용에서도 흐름률 보정 계수를 결정함으로써 계단이나 직립 보와 같은 불연속 지형을 넘나드는 천수 흐름의 월류량을 더 쉽고 정확하게 파악할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Technologies for video reality (e.g., 3D displays, vibration, surround sound, etc.) utilize various sensory input and many of them are now commercialized. However, when it comes to the use of olfaction for video reality, there has not been much progress in both practical and academic respects. Because olfactory sense is tightly associated with human emotion, proper use of this sense is expected to help to achieve a high degree of video reality. This research tested the effects of a video's color-temperature related scent on reality improvement when the video does not have apparent object (e.g., coffee, flower, etc.) which suggest specific smell. To this end, we had participants to rate 48 scents based on a color-temperature scale of 1,500K (warm)-15,000K (cold) and chose 8 scents (4 warm scents, 4 cold scents) which showed clear correspondence with warm or cold color-temperatures (Expt. 1). And then after applying warm (3,000K), neutral (6,500K), or cold (14,000K) color-temperatures to images or videos, we presented warm or cold scents to participants while they rate reality improvement on a 7-point scale depending on relatedness of scent vs. color-temperature (related, unrelated, neutral) (Expts. 2-3). The results showed that participants experienced greater reality when scent and color-temperature was related than when they were unrelated or neutral. This research has important practical implications in demonstrating the possibility that provision of color-temperature related scent improves video reality even when there are no concrete objects that suggest specific olfactory information.

The purpose of this study was to examine the classification accuracies of ML, MAP, and EAP methods under DINA model. For this purpose, this study examined the classification accuracies of the classification methods under the various conditions: the number of attributes, the ability distribution of examinees, and test length. To accomplish this purpose, this study used a simulation method. For the simulation study, data was simulated under the various simulation conditions including the number of attributes (K= 5, 7), the ability distribution of examinees (high, middle, low), and test length (J= 15, 30, 45). Additionally, the percent of agreements between true skill patterns(true ${\alpha}$) and skill patterns estimated by the ML, MAP, and EAP methods were calculated. The summary of the main results of this study is as follows: First, When the number of attributes was 5 and 7, the EAP method showed relatively higher average in the percent of exact agreement than the ML and MAP methods. Second, under the same conditions, as the number of attributes increased, the average percent of exact agreement decreased in ML, MAP, and EAP methods. Third, when the prior distribution of examinees ability was different from low to high under the conditions of the same test length, the EAP method showed relatively higher average in the percent of exact agreement than those of the ML and MAP methods. Fourth, the average percent of exact agreement increased in all methods, ML, MAP, and EAP when the test length increased from 15 to 30 and 45 under the conditions of the same the ability distribution of examinees.

One type of innovative multimedia platform environments is mobile data services (MDS), exemplified by Nate, Show, and OZ. In the context of MDS, enhancing user's continuance intention is a significant challenge to the continuing growth and long-term viability of MDS. Because the cost of using MDS is borne mainly by users, they are likely to evaluate it based on perceptions of what is received and what is given. This study identifies perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment as the 'get'components, and perceived fee and perceived anxiety as the 'give' components. To understand the role of get and give components in the MDS post-adoption environment, this study incorporates these components into expectation confirmation model. We collected data from 204 users who had direct experiences with MDS within recent 3 months. The data was analyzed by employing PLS (partial least squares). Theoretical and practical implications of our findings are discussed.
