This paper is written to introduce and review Shinji Matsunaga's The Aesthetics of Video Games which published in Japan in 2018. Shinji Matsunaga has studied video games from a philosophical and aesthetic perspective. In The Aesthetics of Video Games, he took video games as a hybrid form of traditional games. Shinji Matsunaga particularly notes that video games can design human behaviors and experiences. From this point of view, he tries to construct a theoretical framework that will be able to describe the ways of signification in games and fiction respectively. In previous studies, video games have been mainly discussed in the context of cultural studies and entertainment culture in Japan. The Aesthetics of Video Games is distinguished from the previous studies in the following points. First, The Aesthetics of Video Games pioneered the method of studying video games in art theory. Second, it established various types of relationships with video games and traditional aesthetic concepts. Third, this book connects new concepts that emerged in the age of artificial intelligence to video games as an aesthetic action. Through this work, not only video games were discussed academically, but also the fields of aesthetics and art were expanded. The Aesthetics of Video Game is like a collection of philosophical concepts for video games. Through this book, it can be said that the path for artificial intelligence to approach human secrets is closer than before.

The Internet had been taken properties which were both a slow speed and low-bandwidth of the first time. It was impossible to transmit large multimedia data because of a Internet properties. After tens of Year Passed, many people began to transmit multimedia data in the Internet which had fast-speed and high-bandwidth. Some people want to team classes to be taught in school through the Internet. And, educators wish to use multimedia data in the educational field. Due to previous reasons, many parts in the educational field had tried to join real-time objects to multimedia objects. But, real-time data didn’t appear easily due to many faults like network errors and system bugs if we want to control data in order to teach and learn classes. Then, this paper separates real-time and unreal-time data and controls these data that aye made a time scheduler to have time information in the extended SMIL-file for deceasing these faults.

This paper is about an approach for pedestrian detection and tracking with infrared imagery. We used the CUDA(Computer Unified Device Architecture) that is a parallel processing language in order to improve the speed of video-based pedestrian detection and tracking. The detection phase is performed by Adaboost algorithm based on Haar-like features. Adaboost classifier is trained with datasets generated from infrared images. After detecting the pedestrian with the Adaboost classifier, we proposed a particle filter tracking strategies on HSV histogram feature that exploit adaptively at the same time. The proposed approach is implemented on an NVIDIA Jetson TK1 developer board that is full-featured device ideal for software development within the Linux environment. In this paper, we presented the results of parallel processing with the NVIDIA GPU on the CUDA development environment for detection and tracking of pedestrians. We compared the object detection and tracking processing time for night-time images on both GPU and CPU. The result showed that the detection and tracking speed of the pedestrian with GPU is approximately 6 times faster than that for CPU.

GIS is the tool widely used for the practical solution of spatial problems in every region regardless of the language and ideology. In this paper research trends and tendencies of GIS in North Korea are reviewed compared with those in South Korea. For this purpose, academic publications on GIS in North Korea are surveyed and classified according to main subjects in GIS. Such classification by main subjects of GIS in North Korea are conducted on the basis of the classification of research trends and tendencies of GIS in South Korea. As a result, researches in North Korea are mainly focused upon such fields as geodetic surveying and measurement, map manufacture, atmospheric phenomena, agriculture and disasters, while there are few studies related to such fields as national GIS policy and circulation, GIS education, internet-based GIS, and traffic, to name but a few. Most parts of applied data are based on low and medium resolution image such as meteorological satellite images, Landsat images, and so on. This reflects the low level of the development of GIS DB infrastructure in North Korea.

The eyeS of human beings are the very interesting objects of research, which were believed to do deliver any meanings without direct words and also to represent best description of key characteristics of humans than any other parts in the body. With respect to this hypothesis on eyes, the study of various expressions of eyes is the fascinating research topic in the area of optical design which is deeply connected to the figurative images. Traditionally, physiognomy was settled by many Koreans to become one of the branches of discourses. Physiognomy has been developed through the statistical summaries of life patterns of various kinds 'of science based on the results of systematical analysis. This research was focused on elucidating the relationship between the consumers' perception and the image of eyes which were thought to be the most important sign emitted from the body of human beings. Furthermore, study was conducted to derive a practical usage from the research results if above relationship was showed to be true. It was unveiled that the considerable close relationship was established with small errors and that eye's image was compensated and enhanced with the help of lip's image to obtain more perfect image. As a result, it was concluded that the rationales of phtsiognomy could assist to choose figures as a figurative image. (Keyword)

Referring expressions are natural language constructions used to identify particular objects within a scene. In this paper, we propose a new deep neural network model for referring expression comprehension. The proposed model finds out the region of the referred object in the given image by making use of the rich information about the referred object itself, the context object, and the relationship with the context object mentioned in the referring expression. In the proposed model, the object matching score and the relationship matching score are combined to compute the fitness score of each candidate region according to the structure of the referring expression sentence. Therefore, the proposed model consists of four different sub-networks: Language Representation Network(LRN), Object Matching Network (OMN), Relationship Matching Network(RMN), and Weighted Composition Network(WCN). We demonstrate that our model achieves state-of-the-art results for comprehension on three referring expression datasets.

Recently, real-time streaming services are gaining popularity among the MZ generation and the market size is continuously growing. Pre-recorded and edited videos only show one-way communication, but real-time streaming services have the advantage of responding immediately to questions and requests from users, as they enable two-way communication. With the transition from face-to-face culture to non-face-to-face culture due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of users communicating in real-time video for activities such as classes, meetings, and leisure has dramatically increased. However, as real-time streaming services become more active and diverse generations participate, there is a problem of conflicts arising from language differences, including the use of neologisms. To address this issue, this paper proposes a method of collecting the meaning of neologisms through the Wikipedia API and presenting them to each other, so that they can understand each other's intentions.
