Despite recent studies on development of pulse diagnosis systems and needs for commercializing them, the reproducibility is one of the most controversial issues as ever. Because the pulse pressure value, which is one of the important parameters to evaluate reproducibility, is very vulnerable to moving artifacts, the reproducibility can not be obtained easily. In this paper, we suggested a moving artefacts detection system for a pulse diagnosis system so that a pulse diagnosis system can be robust to theses kinds of artefacts by excluding the contaminated parts from the pulse wave signal to be analyzed. This moving artifacts detection system was designed to consist of a three-axis accelerometer, an electromyography amplifier and a two-axis tilt sensor. To assess the suitability of the system, we examined the characteristics of each sensor's output signals with regard to the three specific motions such as extension, flexion and rotation. And, we also examined the each sensor's response to the high-frequency and low-frequency moving artifacts while the pulse wave signal was acquired from a pressure sensor for the pulse diagnosis. From these results, we could find that the response to subject's motions would be reflected in electromyography signal first, in accelerometer signals and in tilt sensor sequently. And, the facts that a stable pulse wave can be acquired in two seconds after high frequency or low frequency motions ended, were also found. Consequently, based on these findings, we set up some rules on the moving artifacts detection and designed an algorithm which is fit for our moving artifacts detection system.

This paper provides a database about the IPTV VOD usage behavior of children as well as mother's perception at home. We analyzed the correlation of mother's background with IPTV VOD using time of children through a survey. We analyzed how does the mother's background influences usage time of IPTV VOD for children through a survey. The survey was conducted by 500 mothers who have two to seven years old children with IPTV users in Korea. Compilation of the data reveals that 1) 36.6% of the children have watched IPTV VOD for the first time at two years old, 93.4% have encountered by family members among them. 40.8% of users have played IPTV VOD for children four days a week and the main genre was the animation. 2) The main reason for watching VOD was by the needs of their children, but the 66% of mothers concern for an excessive level of watching. 3) educational background of mother and monthly house income were significantly correlated with the usage time of IPTV VOD for children.

In this paper, we proposed fast and efficient algorithm for detecting near-duplication based on content based retrieval in large scale video database. For handling large amounts of video easily, we split the video into small segment using scene change detection. In case of video services and copyright related business models, it is need to technology that detect near-duplicates, that longer matched video than to search video containing short part or a frame of original. To detect near-duplicate video, we proposed motion distribution and frame descriptor in a video segment. The motion distribution descriptor is constructed by obtaining motion vector from macro blocks during the video decoding process. When matching between descriptors, we use the motion distribution descriptor as filtering to improving matching speed. However, motion distribution has low discriminability. To improve discrimination, we decide to identification using frame descriptor extracted from selected representative frames within a scene segmentation. The proposed algorithm shows high success rate and low false alarm rate. In addition, the matching speed of this descriptor is very fast, we confirm this algorithm can be useful to practical application.

본 논문에서는 블랙박스 혹은 운전석에 장착된 카메라로부터 얻어진 차량 영상에 대한 영역별 수직 히스토그램 매칭 및 선형 회귀분석 모델(linear regression model)을 활용한 강건한 차량 운행 동영상의 안정화(video stabilization) 기법을 제안한다. 동영상 안정화 기법은 영상의 흔들림 보정뿐 아니라 동영상 내 강건한 특징점 추적 및 매칭을 위한 이전의 전처리 과정으로 적용된다. 일반적으로 촬영 과정에서 많은 떨림이 포함될 수 있는 야외 CCTV 영상이나 손으로 들고(hand-held) 촬영된 동영상에 대한 흔들림 보정 등에 적용되고 있으나 영상 내 특징점이 지속적으로 변하고 영상의 변화 정도가 매우 심한 차량 운행 동영상에서는 적용된 사례가 드물다. 본 연구에서는 일반적인 비디오 안정화 기술이 적용되기 어려운 차량 운행 동영상에 대하여 수직 투영 히스토그램 매칭 및 선형 회귀분석 모델 기반의 안정화 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 입력영상에 대한 영역별 수직 투영 히스토그램 매칭을 수행하고 선형 회귀모델을 통해 영상에 나타나는 수직 및 회전이동 변환을 선형 근사하여 시간 영역 상의 입력 영상에 대한 안정화를 달성한다. 제안 방법의 검증을 위해 블랙박스로 촬영된 실제 동영상에 동영상 안정화 기술을 적용하였으며, 운행 중 불규칙한 노면으로 인한 영상의 흔들림이 효과적으로 제거되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

최근 WEB 2.0 환경을 통해 사용자는 직접 응용 프로그램과 데이터를 이용하여 새로운 컨텐츠를 생산하는 주체로 변모하고 있다. 이러한 사용자의 자발적이고 적극적인 참여는 'UCC(사용자 제작 컨텐츠)'라고 불리는 새로운 문화 컨텐츠의 활성화로 이어지고 있다. 특히 글과 그림, 소리 등이 총체적으로 엮여 있는 동영상 UCC 의 경우, 이야기 구조나 캐릭터가 갖는 내용적인 특성과 제작자의 제작 취지를 훼손없이 살릴 수 있다는 제작의 특성으로 인해 WEB 2.0 환경에서 사용자의 참여가 더욱 두드러지고 있다. 본 연구에서 '사용자들이 열광하는 동영상 UCC 는 어떤 특징을 갖는가?' 라는 질문에 답하기 위해 동영상을 시청하는 사용자의 몰입과 창의성 평가를 진행하였고 이에 영향을 주는 요인으로 동영상 UCC 를 구성하는 내용적인 특성인 이야기의 내러티브와 캐릭터의 과장성을 살펴 보았다. 그리고 이 요인들의 상호작용에 영향을 주는 매개변인으로 제작자의 제작의도에 따른 컨텐츠의 특성을 선정하였다. 제작자의 의도에 따른 컨텐츠의 특성을 분류하기 위해 라캉의 주체이론과 퍼스의 기호학 이론을 바탕으로 모형을 제안하였으며 이를 검증하기 위해 UCC 사용자들을 대상으로 현재 서비스 중인 동영상 UCC 를 보여주고 설문을 실시하였다. 연구결과 제안하는 모형의 적용가능성이 입증되었으며 제작자의 의도에 따른 컨텐츠의 특성에 따라 이야기의 내러티브나 캐릭터의 과장성이 사용자의 몰입과 창의성평가에 미치는 영향력이 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to detect movement noise in PPG(Photoplethysmography) measurements. Movement noise significantly deteriorate PPG signals in measurement, so that a movement noise detection algorithm is critical before using measured PPG signals for applications such as diagnosis. To detect movement noise, we apply wavelet transform to PPG signals instead of short-time Fourier transform and decide if the measured signlas include movement noise. To that end, we adaptively choose a wavelet, which is the most similar to the subject's PPG pattern. In the case when movement noise is intentionally added in the 20% and 30% of the total experiment time, our algorithm detects time-slots including movement and outperforms previous works.

Mathematical modelling for liquid rocket engine(LRE) main components were conducted to predict the dynamic characteristics when the LRE operates at the transient condition, which include engine start up, shut down, or thrust control. Propellant feeding system is composed of fuel and oxidizer feeding components except for regenerative cooling channel for the fuel circuit. Components modeling of pump, pipe, orifice, control valve, regenerative cooling channel and injector was serially made. Hydraulic tests of scale down component were made in order to validate modelling components. The mathematical models of engine components were integrated into LRE transient simulation program in concomitant with experimental validation.

With the recent trend of Web 2.0, experts argue that the UCC age has blossomed where people themselves produce their own content and share it on the Internet. However, more academic studies on video UCC production are needed to understand fully the video UCC phenomenon in Korea. This study was done as an exploratory study to investigate the motivations for video UCC production and its effects. Results reveal that the important motivations for participating in video UCC creation are fun, sharing, and self-expression. For the rewards for video UCC creation participation, feedback, sharing and self-satisfaction are considered valuable psychological rewards by the video UCC creators. Furthermore, the total amount of video UCC production is positively correlated with self-evaluation of fun, importance, and practicality of the video UCC content.

The solvent extraction method was applied on a spent solution containing copper, which was produced in a printed circuit board process, to recover copper and to reuse the etching solution. Lix 64 N ($\alpha$-Hydroxyoxime + $\beta$-Hydroxybenzophenone Oxime) was used as a solvent. The acidic spent copper solution was mixed with and alkaline copper solution to pH=2. The solvent including 30 volume% of Lix 64 N extracted 17.1gr/l of copper from the mixed spent copper solution. In the continuous bench scale experiment, 4 stages for extraction, 2 stages for stripping and 4 stages for washing were used. Recovered copper was recycled as copper sulfate and the raffinate was reused as copper etchant. The percentage of copper recovery and the purity of copper sulfate were higher than 99.9%, respectively.
