Animation fascinates people. Fascination can be defined as a state in which one's attention is irresistibly taken and remains that way even though he/she gains nothing from the object. The power of fascination of animation comes from the fact that the illusion in animation looks as convincing as the reality. In order to successfully fascinate spectators, animation should attract their eyes with visual sensation (confusion), and then quickly have them immersed into the narrative, the inner logic that rationalizes the confusion while the attraction lasts. Animation fascinates us with both visual sensation and narrative, and this fascination is the reason why we keep making animation in spite of the extra efforts it requires. Our fascination to animation is a eulogy to the fantasy so convincing that makes our perception discords with our reason.

Automatic speech recognition(ASR) is attractive technique in trend these day that seek convenient life. Although many approaches have been proposed for ASR but the performance is still not good in noisy environment. Now-a-days in the state of art in speech recognition, ASR uses not only the audio information but also the visual information. In this paper, We present a novel lip detection method for visual speech recognition in mobile environment. In order to apply visual information to speech recognition, we need to extract exact lip regions. Because eye-detection is more easy than lip-detection, we firstly detect positions of left and right eyes, then locate lip region roughly. After that we apply K-means clustering technique to devide that region into groups, than two lip corners and lip center are detected by choosing biggest one among clustered groups. Finally, we have shown the effectiveness of the proposed method through the experiments based on samsung AVSR database.

The study was to improve the right to the enjoyment of culture of persons with visual impairment by increasing the accessibility to art exhibitions and exploring assistive measures through needs assessment survey of persons with visual impairment on arts exhibition. We used total 83 responses collected through an online survey. The result are as follows. First, watching movies at a teather was the most frequent leisure activity among persons with visual impairment, while respondents reported attending art exhibitions as the least frequent activity. Yet, 71.1% included attending art exhibitions as one of their top 5 culture and leisure activities. Most of the respondents reported the purpose of attending art exhibitions as fun. However, a primarily visual atmosphere prevented them from visiting the exhibition. Second, persons with visual impairment preferred approaching the art to have a closer look. More than about 50% of the respondents used their residual vision. Most of the respondents reported to use more than two senses when appreciating the exhibits. Moreover, respondents reported that devices/services for multi-sensory experiences would be helpful to appreciate the art. The findings imply that the consideration of the characteristics and needs of persons with visual impairment is required for establishing the environment of art exhibitions. This could further contribute to the improvement of the right to the enjoyment of leisure and culture of persons with visual impairment and lead to the realization of social integration.

This study interprets the corporate social responsibility and its management through analysis of philosophical view of Mozi(墨子). Mozi was a chinese philosopher during the Hundred Schools of Thought period. He advocated Universal love(兼愛), which stresses that people should care for everyone equally. This principle is in accord with the sustainable management strategy for global market environments. The realization of the value that the company pursues in the rapid growth of such enterprises is an important issue. The pursuit of corporate value in its own interest under the rapidly changing business environment is perceived very negative. And it has demanded a different philosophy as a new management philosophy. The philosophical strategies of these companies were centered around the core philosophy of the ancient Chinese philosopher, Mozi. It is not merely an outcome approach as the act or moral principle but the inner motive to love each other and the principle of sharing the profits of each other. In order to pursue the sustainable value of the enterprise, We would like to suggest a way to pursue the existing absolute value, and to suggest a philosophical strategy based on the philosophy of Mozi.
