The purpose of this research is to examine whether investment portfolio composition affects the technological performance of corporate venture capital (CVC). The stages of investment are categorized from "start-up/seed", "early", and "expansion", to "later" stage. We posit and test that the investment stage composition in a portfolio is highly correlated with the growth potential and downside risk of the portfolio, which in turn influences an investor's innovation performance. To test this hypothesis, we used negative binomial panel regression with 21 years of deal data from 70 cases of CVC. The results show that there is an inverted U shaped relationship between investment portfolio composition and technological performance. This means that the more seed or early stage investment within the investment portfolio, the higher the innovation performance; however, if the amount of seed or early stage investment is over a certain level, the performance decreases. Further, this study finds that the external partners of a venture negatively moderate the inverted U shaped relationship between portfolio composition and innovation performance. We believe that corporate planners, venture capitalists, and policy makers will be helped by these results showing that companies can maximize their investment performance by considering the investment stage and progress of investments.

This paper confirms whether the movement or specific operation of the muscles in the process of transferring a person from the brain can find a signal showing an essential feature of a certain part of the brain. As a rule, the occurrence of EEG(Electroencephalogram) changes when a signal is received from a specific action or from an induced action. These signals are very vague and difficult to distinguish from the naked eye. Therefore, it is necessary to define a signal for analysis before classification. The EEG form can be divided into the alpha, beta, delta, theta and gamma regions in the frequency ranges. The specific size of these signals does not reflect the exact behavior or intention, since the band or energy difference of the activated frequencies varies depending on the EEG measurement domain. However, if different actions are performed in a specific method, it is possible to classify the movement based on EEG activity and to determine the EEG tendency affecting the movement. Therefore, in this article, we first study the EEG expression pattern based on the activation of the left and right biceps EMG, and then we determine whether there is a significant difference between the EEG due to the activation of the left and right muscles through EEG. If we can find the EEG classification criteria in accordance with the EMG activation, it can help to understand the form of the transmitted signal in the process of transmitting signals from the brain to each muscle. In addition, we can use a lot of unknown EEG information through more complex types of brain signal generation in the future.

The purpose of the present study is to clarify the process of change to the pond at the Jongmyo Shrine(宗廟), from the Joseon Dynasty period to the modern and contemporary era. The consequent research results can be summarized as follows. The first record of the Jongmyo pond is confirmed in the "Annals of King Sejong(世宗實錄)". The pond, which was being constructed at the time, refers to the current upper pond(上池). A pair of islets(雙島) were constructed during the Sukjong(肅宗) period, with several trees planted on the middle islet(中池). The middle pond is thick with lotuses. In particular, the middle island on the middle pond subsequently changed into a single island(單島), which is likely to be related to the pond expansion during the reign of Youngjo(英祖). When the lower pond(下池), involving dualistic arrangement, was constructed in the modern and contemporary era, the pond of the Jongmyo Shrine underwent a drastic transformation phase. The lower pond was constructed before 1947 at the latest, and when the right side of the lower pond was filled in the mid 1980s, the dualistically arranged lower pond became a unified type of lower pond. On the other hand, the bank protections of the upper and middle ponds were constructed with earth, but was subsequently modified into its current form using stone.

Among the royal ceremonies of the Joseon Dynasty era, the articles used in the Jinjak ceremony are symbolic icons of their value during the era. It is very important to identify the purpose of the articles whose usage is ambiguous, by referring to various historical records. Moreover, it should be possible to classify the characteristics and the special context of the article during this process. To accomplish this purpose, I examined the articles related to and used in the processes of Jinjak ceremonies of Outer Jinchan of Myeongjeongjeon and Inner Jinchan of Jagyeongjeon, which are part of the Gichuk Jinchan Ceremony performed in February of the 29th year of King Sunjo. Especially, the definition of Jinjak will not just be limited to the action of offering liquor, but will include the whole series of procedures in offering the liquor. This is because the specific action of offering the liquor expresses cultural concepts and values that have meaning within the historical situation and context in the specific action of offering the liquor. There are three characteristics of the articles related to the Jinjak process of Outer Jinchan and Inner Jinchan of Gichuk Jinchan Ceremony. First, the articles of Jinjak are ranked strictly exactly according to the social status rankings. Second, the Jinjak articles are arranged for their symbolic meanings rather than their purpose. Third, the articles of Jinjak are symbolic icons expressing the values inherent in the process of offering liquor. Recently, there are events reviving the royal court banquet and the increase of interest in the royal culture. It such a situation, the systematic examination of articles of royal court banquets will be a process needed to restore the royal ceremony correctly in the future, and will be the foundation for studying the royal culture of the Joseon dynasty era.

With the entry of an aging society, the average life span of accreditation has been extended. Therefore, interest in the appearance of men and women in modern society has increased. It is the wrinkles of the face that can judge the most outwardly. People tend to have various kinds of treatments to have a clean, wrinkle-free and resilient healthy skin regardless of sex. There is a lot of practice of lifting procedures in one of the procedures. A suture using a melting thread is a method of lifting by squeezing it into the skin as a non-incision type centering on a region where the thread can be fixed in the skin by injecting it into the subcutaneous fat layer. To evaluate the lifting efficacy of Cog - type suture for the improvement of skin wrinkles, preclinical experiments were conducted. We developed a wrinkle evaluation program using Labview. Data from preclinical experiments were used at 8 weeks after suturing. The average wrinkle depth was 415.6 mm in the control group. At 8 weeks, the depth of wrinkles was deepened to 888.3mm due to the aging process of the control group. On the other hand, the depth of the wrinkles before surgery was 640.3 mm in the suture group. It was confirmed that the depth of wrinkles decreased to 566.5mm at 8th week after the suture operation.

생태학 분야에서는 생물의 분포, 변동, 서식환경요인의 변화, 등의 여러 종류의 데이터들이 수집되고 있는데 데이터의 형태가 다양하여 데이터의 관리와 활용형태도 다양하게 나타나고 있다. 근래에 들어 각 종 측정기기들이 개발되면서 생태조사 분야에서도 데이터의 양이 급증하는 시점에 있다. 수생태계 분야에서도 전통적인 생물상조사의 데이터는 크게 증가하지 않고 있지만 자동측정센서가 개발된 항목의 경우에는 데이터가 급증하는 단계에 있다. 수생태계에서 흔히 조사되는 플랑크톤의 군집구조 자료를 보면 하나의 조사대상 시료에서 출현하는 종의 수가 50 종정도에 이르며 각 개체의 종을 육안으로 확인하고 있으므로 종조성조사는 아직 자동화가 어렵다. 그러므로 플랑크톤 자료의 특성은 조사의 시료수(case)는 적고 측정항목(변수 variable)이 많은 특성을 가진다. 반면에 센서가 개발된 수질과 관련된 항목들은 자동측정설비가 확대되고 있어 변수는 적지만 장기간의 time series 들이 수집되고 있다. 녹조현상이 관심을 끌면서 여러 곳에 식물플랑크톤의 양을 측정하는 chlorophyll 센서가 설치되고 있는 것이 대표적인 사례이다. 그 외에 정량화되지 못하는 정성적 자료들도 수집되고 있으며 자료수집방법의 표준화도 미흡한 예가 많이 있고, 자료의 형태가 다양하여 데이터의 관리와 활용을 어렵게 한다. 환경부는 전국의 주요 하천 지점에서 정기적으로 수질을 측정하여 공개하고 있으며, 일부 지점에는 자동수질측정시설을 설치하여 측정의 빈도를 높이고 있다. 하천이나 호수에서 센서를 이용한 고빈도 모니터링은 그 동안 인지하지 못하였던 단기적 생태계 변화에 대해 새로운 정보를 제공하여 연구의 장르를 넓혀 가고 있다. 도시하천에서 산소를 측정한 사례를 보면 강우 시에 일시적으로 산소가 고갈되는 현상이 관찰되며, 부영양한 호수와 하천에서는 주야간 산소의 급격한 변동이 생태계 스트레스 요인으로 작용하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 식물플랑크톤 센서의 연구에 의해 단기적인 변동이 크게 나타나고 있음이 새로이 밝혀지기도 하였다. 데이터의 수집과 활용도를 높이려는 노력도 이루어지고 있다. 과거에는 개인단위로 이루어지던 연구가 이제는 데이터를 수집하고 공유하는 플랫폼이 만들어 지면서 공동연구가 확대되고 있고, 국제적으로 지역을 초월하는 공동연구도 가능하게 되었다. 국제호수관측망학회(Global Lake Ecological Observatory Network, GLEON)이 그 사례이며 세계 여러 나라의 학자들이 참여하여 국제적으로 데이터를 공유하고 공동연구를 촉진하는 역할을 하고 있다. 생태계데이터의 증가는 생태학자들의 연구역량을 초과하는 데이터의 관리와 활용의 능력을 요구할 것이며 환경 생태 IT 분야의 융합연구의 필요성이 크게 대두되고 있다. 그간 데이터베이스의 구축에는 일부 성과가 있었으나 아직 수집된 데이터의 활용도를 높이고 타분야와의 협력연구 시너지를 확대하려는 노력은 부족하다. 이제는 데이터의 수집과 저장뿐 아니라 데이터의 활용도를 높일 수 있도록 학제적 협력연구를 촉진하는 off-line 모임도 확대할 때이다.

As of March 2017, fake news is largely focused on political issues. Outside the country, main issues of the fake news have been a hot topic in the US presidential election in 2016 and emerged as a new political and social problem in countries like Germany and France. In Korea, issues of the fake news are also linked with political issues such as presidential impeachment and prosecution, impeachment quota, early election, etc. This phenomenon has recently led to the production and spread of fake news related to safety and security issues as well as political issues in connection with various methods of generating articles and sharing information. As a result, there is a high possibility that the information will be transformed into information that can cause considerable confusion to the public. Therefore, the recognition of such problems means that it is important at this point to consider the related situation analysis and effective countermeasures. To do this, we tried to make accurate and meaningful analysis for the diagnosis, analysis, forecasting and management of issues utilizing Big Data. As a result, it is found that the fake news is continuously generated in relation to the safety and security issue as well as the political issue in the South Korea, and differs from the general form occurring outside the country.

The implementation of drought measures in the upstream areas of river basins is seldom considered with respect to water supply. However, the demand for such measures is increasing rapidly owing to the occurrence of severe droughts, and interventions on streams and the water supply are needed. Physical interventions are an option to prevent streams from becoming dry and to maintain stream water flow, but dam construction is challenging because of environmental and ecological considerations. Here, a feasibility study was conducted to assess the potential effects of sand dams, which are widely used in arid regions in Africa. The SWAT-K model, which is a hydrologic model used for Korean watersheds, is used to estimate the flow rate of water in an ungauged watershed. The changes in water storage of the sand-dammed reservoir and in downstream flow rates are estimated for two types of sand dam (natural and dredged). The results show that sand dams are capable of increasing the downstream flow rate during normal conditions and of mitigating water supply problems caused by the withdrawal of water during drought periods.

The necessity of transmitting video data over a narrow-bandwidth exists steadily despite that video service over broadband is common. In this paper, we propose a scalable video coding framework for low-resolution video transmission over a very narrow-bandwidth network by super-resolution of decoded frames of a base layer using a convolutional neural network based super resolution technique to improve the coding efficiency by using it as a prediction for the enhancement layer. In contrast to the conventional scalable high efficiency video coding (SHVC) standard, in which upscaling is performed with a fixed filter, we propose a scalable video coding framework that replaces the existing fixed up-scaling filter by using the trained convolutional neural network for super-resolution. For this, we proposed a neural network structure with skip connection and residual learning technique and trained it according to the application scenario of the video coding framework. For the application scenario where a video whose resolution is $352{\times}288$ and frame rate is 8fps is encoded at 110kbps, the quality of the proposed scalable video coding framework is higher than that of the SHVC framework.
