In recent computer vision or robotics fields, the research area of object recognition from image using low cost web camera or other video device is performed actively. As study for this, there are various methodologies suggested to retrieve objects in robotics and vision research areas. Also, robotics is designed and manufactured to aim at doing like human being. For instance, a person perceives apples as one see apples because of previously knowing the fact that it is apple in one's mind. Like this, robotics need to store the information of any object of what the robotics see. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an methodology that we can rapidly recognize objects which is stored in object database by using SIFT (scale invariant feature transform) algorithm to get information about the object. And then we implement the methodology to enable to recognize simultaneously multiple objects in an image.

An experimental study has been conducted to investigate the effects of equivalence ratio on the propagation characteristics of $CH_4$-air premixed flame intervened by an ultrasonic standing wave. A Schlieren photography was used for the flame structure visualization, and the flame propagation behavior was investigated in detail throughout the post-processing analysis. It is found that the structural variation of methane/air premixed flame caused by the intervention of ultrasonic standing wave give rise to the enhancement of combustion reaction and flame propagation velocity. Effectiveness of the standing wave on the flame velocity decreases as the equivalence ratio increases. Larger flame velocity with the standing wave becomes undistinguishable in a specific range of equivalence ratios.

As the video wall controller market is growing rapidly, issues that have not been addressed so far are raised. One of them is a phenomenon in which a black screen is displayed on a multi-screen. Black screen is displayed due to an error in the video being displayed in the video wall controller. Human intervention is inevitable to recognize and solve the black screen. However, it is impossible for the operator to monitor the multi-screen 24 hours a day. In this paper, we propose a model that detects the black screen being displayed on the video wall controller. We propose a CNN based architecture to detect a black screen.

Today's Digital Environment made Typography to enter into a new phase. The Type which is a principal component of Typography is no exception to this aspect. However since the existing two-dimensional space has figurative potential, Visual Communication designers are still striving to explore both X axis and Y axis. In this context, Z axis which signifies 'Depth' is often recognized as an unfamiliar mathematical concept unrelated to Design Sensibility. If Z axis is used, the figurative aspect can be acquired, which was hard to be realized in the flat space, because the additional space of depth allows the expansion of omni-directional expression of target. Most notable is the fact that Z axis provided by Digital Environment has actually long existed and is inseparable from Type. This study, therefore, focuses on the three-dimensional expression of Type in the Visual Communication Design area by taking into account the above characteristics.

The relationship quality and recovery of service failures perceived by consumers play an essential role in affecting the service provider's image and sales in terms of the highly involved service industry. In particular, implementation of successful relationship marketing strategies and effective recovery of service failures provide greater satisfaction for customers expecting customized services and reinforce the relationships between the companies and consumers. Based on these previous studies, this research conducted to find out the causal relationship between the variables influencing service recovery expectations and word of mouth(WOM) by approaching the severity of service failures from the perspective of relationship marketing and attribution theory. For the empirical analysis of this research, we conducted a questionnaire surveys of 360 service users of beauty salons, who have experienced in high-involvement services, and utilized 333 questionnaires for the final analysis. The hypothesis was experimented using the Structural Equation Model(SEM), and the results are as follows. First, we identified that the higher the customer perceived the severity of the service failure, the lower the quality of the relationship. Second, we verified that service users observed service failure as a temporary and uncontrollable factor as they distinguished service quality as higher. Third, the hypothesis that customers recognize service failures as a temporary one has a positive impact on service recovery expectation level is determined through empirical analysis. Forth, it was figured out that the higher the perceived quality of the relationship with the service provider, the higher the service recovery level expected by the consumers. At the same time, the hypothesis that optimism for service recovery expectation affects positive word of mouth has been verified. The results of this study help develop the customer-oriented business model of the service companies. Furthermore, the academic significance in that it suggested a new direction for the research of high-involvement service marketing.

In these day, design process has not only visual and industrial departments but also there is an important part which is marketing. Elements of design process are not in accordance with the product and the circumstance of a company but a fundamental role of process is conformed. Moreover, design process is applied in accordance with the character of product and company. In this study, it is based on the concept of home appliances and also can be used in practical work so that there is four stages which are suggested to use for design process. These are planning & visual expression, idea development & expression, presentation & decision and check & control. As a way of development for the management in the design process, firstly, it has to be expressed the identity and the originality of a product, goods and a design strategy. Secondly, product directors should participate in the whole activities of a company, the planning of sales and the process of a design. Thirdly, designers should develop a new communication way so that the manager can be understand easily for a presentation. Finally. it should be systematized to improve the efficiency of design process by introducing various technical management.

Illustration has been used as a means of human communication since the primitive age. And now it has become a way to express impliedly either the fragmentary or the psychological side of our life. Like it has been said in peter knock's Illustration magazine, an artist said "it was the best article ever read." Illustrator's task is to abstract and practically describe not our daily life, but every moment of the perception an object, whether it is define or indefine. It can inspire stronger perception than any other elegant language. Addition to that the practical use of illustration is increasing ever day. The target has now become various such as man, nature, art, science and so on. Therefore, at this point what illustration requires is creation, new and striking idea. It is because in order to get in to the general's living in the complicate and various society, it must show unique images and appearance. Therefore, now the illustration should induce the work which is based on synetics thoughts, not simple improving skill. Now we must restrain futional and diagrammatic illustration education and be able to thik of free and abundant characteristics. It will eventually help students to feel the value of human life and free themselves from the reality of present education which is getting machinized and instrumentalized.entalized.

Recently, a number of deep-learning based land cover segmentation studies have been introduced. Some studies denoted that the performance of land cover segmentation deteriorated due to insufficient training data. In this study, we verified the improvement of land cover segmentation performance through data augmentation. U-Net was implemented for the segmentation model. And 2020 satellite-derived landcover dataset was utilized for the study data. The pixel accuracies were 0.905 and 0.923 for U-Net trained by original and augmented data respectively. And the mean F1 scores of those models were 0.720 and 0.775 respectively, indicating the better performance of data augmentation. In addition, F1 scores for building, road, paddy field, upland field, forest, and unclassified area class were 0.770, 0.568, 0.433, 0.455, 0.964, and 0.830 for the U-Net trained by original data. It is verified that data augmentation is effective in that the F1 scores of every class were improved to 0.838, 0.660, 0.791, 0.530, 0.969, and 0.860 respectively. Although, we applied data augmentation without considering class balances, we find that data augmentation can mitigate biased segmentation performance caused by data imbalance problems from the comparisons between the performances of two models. It is expected that this study would help to prove the importance and effectiveness of data augmentation in various image processing fields.

The forms of emoticon - a symbolic tool which expresses a person's sentiments and emotions in virtual space - have been diversifying by the growth of the mobile market. In light of this phenomenon, a number of studies about emoticon have been conducting in Korea. Nevertheless, those are limited not only to a certain form of emoticon which is combinations of symbolic characters but to the functional aspect of emoticon. Thus, this research focused on the image-form emoticon which is the most highly used, and on the user's perspective rather than functional. It is (1)found out the motive of using image-form of emoticon, and (2)explored the attitude and using behaviors toward emoticon based on the motives found. Moreover, this study (3)examined if there is a gender effect and intimacy effect. As a result, the motives of the emoticon-users were to express their emotions, to show their intimacies to the receivers, to manage their images, and to supplement text-based messaging. Two of the motives - expressing emotions and expressing intimacy - had a positive effect on the attitude and the frequency of emoticon-use. It is also found that the higher intimacy users feel toward the receivers, the better the attitude they have as well as the more frequent they use emoticon. This study suggests practical implications of emoticon as a growing communication tool by identifying the motives of using it. And it also contributes to examine the effect of the motives and intimacy on the attitude and the actual behavior of using emoticon.

The urban space has both aspects that the happy space that guarantees opportunity and comfort is an unfortunate space where poverty, exclusion and deportation proceed simultaneously. In other words, growth and decline are simultaneous within the city, and this phenomenon is more evident in modern society, which is getting more complicated. The harbor space is also affected by the growth and decline of the port industry directly or indirectly in the port area. However, since there is no systematic guideline for development and planning of port space in Korea, the phenomenon of the decline of the rear area, which is made up as if the harbor space has been growing and declining from past to present, is getting worse.
