Previous studies have shown the significant association between loneliness and game addiction. To determine the causal relationship between them, the present study utilized a series of autoregressive cross-lagged models to early adolescent panel data (N = 346) from KOCCA's Game User Panel Research. Results indicated that loneliness and game addiction, respectively, had relatively strong and stable autoregressive effects across four time points. Also, game addiction at a prior time increased loneliness at a later time, but loneliness was not significantly related to game addiction later in time. These results suggest that game addiction may cause loneliness, not the vice versa.

Discussions and debates over media education abound in Korra as the number of both institutions that provide media related education and students enrollment for these programs increases rapidly in recent years. In spite of this rather impressive expansion, however, many have raised serious questions about media education of Korea for its not being able to meet the need of the Industry and students, and, moreover, inability to face the challenges brought by new communication related technologies. Who teaches What for what purposes are some of the fundamental questions underlying these heated debates and discussions. To understand these rather complex and interrelated issues more clearly, it is attempted to delineate the nature of these debates by exploring the evolutionary process of media education. The issues related to debates over purposes of media education, curriculum, and faculty qualification have changed through the history of media education, but the nature of the debates, that is the struggle between professionalism and academism, or the tension between practice and theory, has not. Upon this understanding, some argue that what distinguishes opposing sets of dichotomies, such as skills vs. knowledge, training vs. education, now-how vs. know-why. professional vs. academic, practice vs. theory, is more a reflection of social class division and group interests which have privileged theory over practice than a rational scholastic distinction. In addition, it has been often pointed out that the media studies have failed to establish ties with specific industries, and furthermore academic studies seriously lack solid theoretical and practical bases. In the case of the United States, leaders of the industry had contributed much for the Initiation of journalism education in a college setting. However, once inaugurated,, the process of its evolution has depended heavily on academicians. In a country like Korea, where academic and theoretical orientation is much stronger, these problems of media studies and education are even more acute. In this study, it is suggested that academicians and educators be more open-hearted to the realities of changing world, practices of the industries, and recruitment of professionals and practitioners to fill the gap between practice and theory, for the sake of the future of media studies and education.

In this paper, we present a method that automatically generates concatenate morpheme based language models to improve the performance of Korean large vocabulary continuous speech recognition. The focus was brought into improvement against recognition errors of monosyllable morphemes that occupy 54% of the training text corpus and more frequently mis-recognized. Knowledge-based method using POS patterns has disadvantages such as the difficulty in making rules and producing many low frequency concatenate morphemes. Proposed method automatically selects morpheme-pairs from training text data based on measures such as frequency, mutual information, and unigram log likelihood. Experiment was performed using 7M-morpheme text corpus and 20K-morpheme lexicon. The frequency measure with constraint on the number of morphemes used for concatenation produces the best result of reducing monosyllables from 54% to 30%, bigram perplexity from 117.9 to 97.3. and MER from 21.3% to 17.6%.

Samguk Yusa is a important historic record about the dynasties of ancient Korea. It consists of information about the hidden, mythical history, old languages and poems. This historical book has been translated many times since the Liberation of Korea in 1945. However, these books are the result of academic research so we are restricted in our usage of them to understand Korean history. There are many historical documentaries and TV series on Samguk Yusa. However, these programs can be viewed only and not be utilized in any way by the audience. Since the computer was introduced to the public, multimedia technology has been a good source to combine text, image, moving picture, sound, animation and graphic. Producing the CD-ROM about historical books not only produce digital images but also a valuable high quality digital information. Digitalization process also keeps the original content of the historical books as well as provide value as a research material as historical, artistic and archaeological item. Furthermore, its information would be provided through a network, like internet, to share and to promote more advanced studies. The purpose of this study is to produce the basic method of multimedia design of Samguk Yusa. This study also researches the problems of multimedia process for more effective usage.

We proposed a video summarization algorithm based on an ERP (Event Related Potentials)-based topic relevance model, a MMR (Maximal Marginal Relevance), and discriminant analysis to generate a semantically meaningful video skim. We then conducted implicit and explicit evaluations to evaluate our proposed ERP/MMR-based method. The results showed that in the implicit and explicit evaluations, the average scores of the ERP / MMR methods were statistically higher than the average score of the SBD (Shot Boundary Detection) method used as a competitive baseline, respectively. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the average score of ERP/MMR (${\lambda}=0.6$) method and that of ERP/MMR (${\lambda}=1.0$) method in both assessments.

This study constructed a cognitive model of information processing to understand the topic of a sound material and its characteristics. It then proposed methods to generate sound summaries, by incorporating anterior-posterior N400/P600 components of event-related potential (ERP) response, into the language representation of the cognitive model of information processing. For this end, research hypotheses were established and verified them through ERP experiments, finding that P600 is crucial in screening topic-relevant shots from topic-irrelevant shots. The results of this study can be applied to the design of classification algorithm, which can then be used to generate the content-based metadata, such as generic or personalized sound summaries and video skims.
