To access PDF documents on an electronic book, PDF documents need to be converted into EPUB which is a standard format of the electronic book. When converting a PDF document into EPUB format, we need to convert color representations from CMYK into RGB representation. It is possible to give a visual effect and a user interaction using a video and JavaScript supported by EPUB format. The schemes for converting from PDF to EPUB are studied in this paper. (1) The first study is to carry out not to lose the color conversion effect using an ICC profile. (2) The second one is a layout configuration in the conversion process. (3) The third one is to highlight a specific content such as quiz platform to provide interactive visual effect for electronic book readers. Finally, in this paper we will show the usability of EPUB based eBook converting scheme through user study.

In this paper, we propose an Active Shape Model (ASM) and Lucas-Kanade (LK) optical flow-based feature extraction and analysis method for analyzing the emotional features from facial images. Considering the facial emotion feature regions are described by Facial Action Coding System, we construct the feature-related shape models based on the combination of landmarks and extract the LK optical flow vectors at each landmarks based on the centre pixels of motion vector window. The facial emotion features are modelled by the combination of the optical flow vectors and the emotional states of facial image can be estimated by the probabilistic estimation technique, such as Bayesian classifier. Also, we extract the optimal emotional features that are considered the high correlation between feature points and emotional states by using common spatial pattern (CSP) analysis in order to improvise the operational efficiency and accuracy of emotional feature extraction process.

This study is a model of research for the developing 3D character contents about facial expression as a sort of non-linguistic signs, focusing on an expression of emotion factors of a person. It contributes a framework for symbolic analysis about Human's emotions along with a general review of expression. The human face is the most complex and versatile of all species. For humans, the face is a ich and versatile instrument serving many different functions. It serves as a window to display one's own motivational state. This makes one's behavior more predictable and understandable to others and improves communication. The face can be used to supplement verbal communication. A prompt facial display can reveal the speaker's attitude about the information being conveyed. Alternatively, the face can be used to complement verbal communication, such as lifting of eyebrows to lend additional emphasis to stressed word. The facial expression plays a important role under the digital visual context. This study will present a frame of facial expression categories for effective manufacture of cartoon and animation that appeal to the visual emotion of the human.

This study aims to examine the present (Western) modern dance by analyzing the works of three choreographers who are currently at the forefront of the dance scene to identify and understand the current choreographic trend. The three selected choreographers for this study are Justin Peck (USA), Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui (Belgium) and Zach Morris (USA). These choreographers were chosen on the basis of their significant identity within the current dance scene. For analysis, one noteworthy works of each choreographer were selected for video analysis. The result of the analysis illustrates that in the current era of promoting technology convergence in the performing arts industry, the three choreographers approach convergence differently by integrating dance and other mediums in their choreography. Peck converges between ballet and the ordinary, Cherkaoui converges between dance and other cultures and Morris converges between dance and venue.

As with all narrative forms based on media, the narrative method of TV human documentary is closely related to the change of broadcasting environment. In 2017, the world's first terrestrial UHD broadcast was launched in Korea, and in September of that year, KBS broadcasted the UHD special documentary series. , made of UHD capable of ultra-high definition video and immersive audio, showed a narrative approach completely different from the existing TV human documentary. Instead of all-out narration, which was considered an essential element in the TV human documentary, it used the modest first-person narration of the characters, while actively using drones capable of various compositions to express the psychology of the characters in detail and enable viewers' immersion. In addition, the Montage editing technique, an editing method that has not been attempted in TV human documentaries, utilizes the narrative development method of 'showing' as a video without 'explaining' with narration. After , many similar narrative documentaries are broadcast, and the flow and direction of TV human documentaries are changing under UHD broadcasting environment.

With increasing user applicability of geospatial data, user demand for manifold and accurate information has increased. The usefulness of these services derives from their combination of the advantages of as-built geospatial data in making new content. There is a spatial inconsistency and shape disagreement in fusing heterogeneous data. Conflation, defined as the combining of information from diverse sources so as to reconcile spatial inconsistencies and shape disagreement, is possible solution to the problem. In this research, we developed the technique for removing shape disagreement between aerial image and road map removed spatial inconsistency in advanced research. The process includes four processes: producing of a road candidate image, extraction of vertices, and generation of a graph by connecting the vertices. We could remove the shape disagreement using the extracted road that was derived from finding the road possible path.

현재까지 하천의 흐름, 유사이동, 수질해석을 위해서는 외국에서 개발된 소프트웨어를 주로 사용해 오고 있었다. 학술 분야에서는 국내의 모형들이 연구되어졌지만 그에 따른 GUI나 가시화 시스템에 대한 실용화는 거의 이루어지지 못하였다. 본 연구에서는 범용 2차원 하천 흐름, 수질, 유사이동 해석을 위한 GUI 및 가시화 시스템(이하 RAMS, River Analysis and Modeling System)을 개발하여, 하상변동 및 오염물 이송확산에 미치는 수리학적 영향을 규명할 수 있도록 하였다. RAMS는 크게 mesh generator, 해석 모형의 입력 GUI 모듈, 입출력 파일 생성 모듈, 그리고 모의 결과의 가시화 시스템 등으로 이루어져 있다. Mesh generator는 지형자료(이미지 또는 DXF 파일)를 백그라운드 이미지로 가져올 수 있으며, 삼각형 노드와 사각형 노드를 지원한다. 또한 thin triangle들을 제거하는 기능, 선택된 요소(elements)를 제거하는 기능, triangle들을 서로 병합하여 사각형 요소를 만드는 기능, mesh의 renumbering 기능 등을 구현하였다. 특히 사용자가 잘못 생성한 요소들을 바로 이전 상태로 환원하는 undo/redo 기능을 구현하여 능률적인 mesh 생성이 가능하다. 해석 모형의 입력 GUI 모듈에는 각 해석 모형(흐름, 수질, 유사이동)에 특화된 GUI를 설계하여 사용자는 보다 친숙한 환경에서 편리하게 자료를 입력할 수 있다. 입출력 파일 생성 모듈에서는 사용자가 GUI를 통해 입력한 자료를 파일로 변환하여 즉각적으로 모의를 수행하며, 그 출력 파일을 읽어 모의 결과를 자동적으로 가시화한다. 모의 결과의 가시화 시스템에서는 수많은 모의 결과를 체계화하여 등고선 및 화살표 등으로 표현하며, time step 별 결과를 바로 확인할 수 있다. 또한 애니메이션 기능을 구현하여 사용자가 원하는 구간의 time step에서의 모의 결과를 연속적으로 볼 수 있으며, 이 애니메이션을 AVI 파일로 변환하여 다른 동영상 프로그램에서도 재생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서 개발한 RAMS를 이용하여 하천 설계 시 그 공학적 근거를 제시하고, 국내 실정에 맞는 국산 소프트웨어를 제공함으로써 하천의 흐름, 수질, 유사이동 해석에 의한 하천의 수리학적 거동을 보다 편리하고 정확하게 모의할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
