데이터베이스와 연동하는 웹 응용에 대한 수요가 비즈니스를 포함하는 모든 분야에서 급속히 증가하고 있다. 그러나 급증하는 수요에 비해 웹 응용의 작성 및 유지.보수에 많은 시간과 노력이 소요되고 있다. 본 논문에서 소개하는 웹 데이터베이스 응용 자동 생성기 WebGen은 웹 응용에 필요한 폼들과 이 폼들을 통해 이루어지는 질의에 대해 데이터베이스와 연동하여 처리하는 웹 스크립트들을 자동 생성하는 소프트웨어 도구다. WebGen은 웹 응용 개발자가 작성하는 구성파일(configuration file)에 정의된 선언적인 내용을 스크립트의 기본 원형인 내장된 템플릿(template)에 반영하여 5개의 웹 스크립트들(Search, Select, Edit, Information, Action)을 생성한다. Action 스크립트를 제외한 나머지 스크립트들은 사용자 인터페이스로 각각 해당되는 웹 폼을 생성한다. 따라서 웹 응용 작성을 위한 시간과 노력을 크게 줄여 웹 응용의 생산성을 향상시킨다. 상용 웹 응용 생성기들과 달리, WebGen은 독립적인 템플릿을 기반으로 하기 때문에 버전 관리가 용이하고 한 폼에 표현 가능한 정보도 관심의 대상인 엔티티 외에 이 엔티티와 직.간접적으로 연관된 모든 엔티티들을 포함한다.

Graphical model represents conditional dependencies between variables as a graph with nodes and edges. It is widely used in various fields including physics, economics, and biology to describe complex association. Conditional dependencies can be estimated from a inverse covariance matrix, where zero off-diagonal elements denote conditional independence of corresponding variables. This paper proposes a efficient BCDR (block coordinate descent with random permutation) algorithm using graphics processing units and random permutation for the CONCORD (convex correlation selection method) based on the BCD (block coordinate descent) algorithm, which estimates a inverse covariance matrix based on pseudo-likelihood. We conduct numerical studies for two network structures to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm for the CONCORD in terms of computation times.

Irregular temporal sampling is a common feature of geophysical and biological time series in remote sensing. This study proposes an on-line system for reconstructing observation image series including bad or missing observation that result from mechanical problems or sensing environmental condition. The surface parameters associated with the land are usually dependent on the climate, and many physical processes that are displayed in the image sensed from the land then exhibit temporal variation with seasonal periodicity. An adaptive feedback system proposed in this study reconstructs a sequence of images remotely sensed from the land surface having the physical processes with seasonal periodicity. The harmonic model is used to track seasonal variation through time, and a Gibbs random field (GRF) is used to represent the spatial dependency of digital image processes. In this study, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) image was computed for one week composites of the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) imagery over the Korean peninsula, and the adaptive reconstruction of harmonic model was then applied to the NDVI time series from 1996 to 2000 for tracking changes on the ground vegetation. The results show that the adaptive approach is potentially very effective for continuously monitoring changes on near-real time.

Purpose: Proteins are major components of the body and essential nutrients for proper growth and development. However, studies on protein intake in children and adolescents are insufficient. A few previous studies have reported the relationship with growth indicators, but results vary depending on the source of protein. Therefore, the current study investigates the relationship between protein intake and overweight and obesity among children and adolescents in Korea. Methods: Based on the 2014-2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 5,567 children and adolescents aged 6-18 years, who participated in a 24-hour dietary recall with information on height and weight, were included in this study. Protein intake was estimated as percentage of total energy (% of energy) and was classified into animal and plant protein according to the food source. Overweight and obesity were defined using the 2017 pediatric and adolescent growth chart. Results: Total protein intake of the subjects was estimated as 14.5% of total energy (animal protein 8.3% and plant protein 6.3%). The group with the highest total protein intake had a higher odds ratio (OR) of overweight/obesity than those with the least protein intake (OR, 1.36, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.10-1.67, p for trend = 0.003). When classified by food source, the group with the highest animal protein intake had a significantly higher OR of overweight/obesity than subjects with the lowest intake (OR, 1.30, 95% CI, 1.05-1.61, p for trend = 0.016). However, plant protein was not significantly associated with overweight/obesity. Conclusions: These findings suggest that a high intake of animal protein in children and adolescents increases the risk of being overweight and obese. In order to develop normal growth and prevent obesity in the future, it is necessary to determine an appropriate protein intake level through nutrition education programs and prospective studies on balanced protein intake.

Natural drought is a three-dimensional phenomenon that simultaneously evolves in time and space. To evaluate the link between meteorological and hydrological droughts, we defined a drought event from a three-dimensional perspective and analyzed the propagation characteristics in time and spaces. Overall results indicated that 77 % of the total cases of spatio-temporal droughts was propagated based on the single category relationship between meteorological and hydrological drought events, while 23 % was affected by multiple meteorological drought events to the occurrence of hydrological drougts. Especially, it turned out that the hydrological drought was caused by the spatio-temporal effects of the propagation of four meteorological drought events generated due to long-term lack of precipitation in 1994-1995. In addition, the meteorological drought caused by the lack of precipitation in the summer of 2001 lasted for several months, and was propagated to the hydrological drought in April 2002.

With the recent rapid development of mobile terminals and personal computers and the advent of neural network technology, real-time face swapping using images has become possible. In particular, the cycle generative adversarial network made it possible to replace faces using uncorrelated image data. In this paper, we propose an input data processing scheme that can improve the quality of face swapping with less training data and time. The proposed scheme can improve the image quality while preserving facial structure and expression information by combining facial landmarks extracted through a pre-trained neural network with major information that affects the structure and expression of the face. Using the blind/referenceless image spatial quality evaluator (BRISQUE) score, which is one of the AI-based non-reference quality metrics, we quantitatively analyze the performance of the proposed scheme and compare it to the conventional schemes. According to the numerical results, the proposed scheme obtained BRISQUE scores improved by about 4.6% to 14.6%, compared to the conventional schemes.

In order to elucidate temporal variations of temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), suspended particulate matter (SPM), dissolved inorganic nutrients, and chlorophyll a, we performed 25-hour continuous monitoring in the Seomjin River Estuary in March (dry season) and July (rainy season) 2006. We also investigated spatial variations of marine environmental parameters across a saline gradient. In the Seomjin River Estuary, continuous monitoring results revealed that salinity variations were mainly affected by tidal cycle in the dry season and by river discharge in the rainy season. In the dry season, the spatio-temporal distribution of dissolved inorganic nutrient (nitrate, nitrite, and silicate) concentrations showed a good correlation with tidal cycle. While nutrient concentrations in rainy season showed not much variance in time. There were 6 and 4 times higher dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in the rainy season than those in the dry season, respectively. Silicate concentration was 43 times higher in the rainy season than that in the dry season. Chlorophyll a concentration was higher in the dry season than that in the rainy season showing high nutrient concentrations. The results of this study, spatio-temporal variations of marine environmental factors are determined by both tidal cycle and river discharge. It seems that chlorophyll a concentration is related to the river discharge than dissolved inorganic nutrient distribution.

The present study was designed to examine the impact of socioeconomic, health-related, and health behavioral factors on the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of the Korean elderly by gender. The subjects comprised 688 men and 898 women aged 65 or more who had participated in the Sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted in 2014. The associations of factors with the HRQoL as measured with the European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) Index were examined in a general linear model. The most influential factor on the HRQoL was depression in both men and women. The perceived health status and walking activity were also associated with the HRQoL in both men and women. The living arrangement and educational status were associated with the HRQoL in women, while the body mass index was associated with the HRQOL in men. Depression management and the promotion of walking activity are essential to the HRQoL of the Korean elderly. Particular attention must be paid to the HRQoL of older women who live alone and have a lower level of education.

The social statistic was used to top 250 Korean and Japanese YouTube channels based on the number of subscribers examine its channel type (private/corporations/others), distribution of contents and private YouTube channels' date of registration. The channel examination was also used to provide practical hint to create new Youtube contents. According to the statistics, Korean channels were mainly managed by K-Culture related companies for the promotional purpose, whereas Japanese channels were mainly managed by individuals with a variety of contents. It is presumed that Japanese individuals have been engaged in creating individual video content since the early period through video uploading platforms other than YouTube such as Niconico Douga. Since the expansion of the YouTube market will continue, it is important not only to reinforce corporations' marketing on YouTube but also to promote the uniqueness and the diversity of YouTube content for the individuals to improve the economical, sentimental, and informational contents in order to create socially effective personal contents that can be competitive in the global market.

One important question that arises when dealing with temporal databases in context of object-oriented systems is the method that associates time with attributes relationship semantics. Results of previous work about attribute versioning, particularity extending flat(First Normal Form: FNF) or nested(Non-First Normal Form: NFNF) relational models. are not applicable to temporal object-oriented databases. This is because object-oriented models provide more powerful constructs than traditional models for structuring complex objects. Therefore, this paper presents an formal approach for incorporating temporal extension to object-oriented databases. Our goal in this paper is to study temporal object-oriented database representation according to generalization, aggregation and association among objects. We define tile concepts of attribute versioning in temporal object-oriented model, and we concentrate on the representation of temporal relationship among objects. Another contribution of this paper is to specify time constraints on relationship semantics and analyze our model based on representation criteria. By means of formalizing tile temporal object oriented model, this paper can not only provide tile robust operating functions that design algebraic operators, but also entrance the reuse of modules.
