Hot pepper can be easily faded or discolored in drying process, so we need to use the sorting technique to improve the quality for dried hot pepper. Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is one of the most widely used methods for blind source separation. In this paper we use this technique to get a concentration image of the most important component which plays a role in the dried pepper. This concentration image is different from the binary image and it reflects the characteristics of major components, so that we know the distribution and quality of the component and how to sort the dried pepper. Also, the size of the concentration image can tell the relation with capsaicinoids which make hot taste. We propose a sorting method of the dried hot pepper that is faded or discolored and lacked a major component likes capsaicin in drying process using ICA concentration image.

플라즈마 공정에서의 생산률이 플라즈마의 밀도에 비례한다는 많은 연구가 이루어진 후, 초대면적 고밀도 플라즈마 소스의 개발은 플라즈마 소스 개발에서 중요한 부분을 차지하기 시작하였다. 이로 인해, 전자 공명 플라즈마, 유도 결합 플라즈마와 헬리콘 플라즈마 등 새로운 고밀도 플라즈마 개발 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 최근에는 고밀도 플라즈마 개발과 더불어, 대면적 플라즈마 소스의 개발이 플라즈마 공정 기술의 중요한 이슈가 되고 있는데, 이는 450 mm 이상의 반도체, 2 m${\times}$2 m 이상의 8세대 평판 디스플레이와 1 m${\times}$1 m 태양광 전지 생산 공정에서 플라즈마의 기술이 요구되고 있기 때문이다. 대면적 공정영역의 이러한 경향은 균일한 대면적 고밀도 플라즈마 개발을 촉진시켜왔다. 밀도가 낮은 축전 결합 플라즈마를 제외한, 대면적 공정에 적합한 고밀도 플라즈마원으로 유도 결합 플라즈마와 헬리콘 플라즈마를 선택한 후, 병렬연결 시의 특성을 알기 위하여 ICP와 헬리콘의 단일 튜브와 다수 튜브의 플라즈마 내부, 외부 변수를 측정하여 조사하였다. 두 가지 플라즈마 소스의 비교 실험을 위하여, 자기장을 제외한 모든 조건을 동등하게 한 후 실험을 하였다. 단일 헬리콘 실험을 바탕으로, 대면적 실험에 가장 적합한 자기장의 세기, 자석의 위치 및 튜브의 치수를 정한 후, fractal 구조를 위한 16개 다수 방전을 ICP와 헬리콘을 비교하였다. 병렬연결 시, RF 플라즈마에서는 같은 전압을 가져도, 안테나 디자인을 고려하지 않으면 모든 튜브의 방전이 이루어 지지 않았다. 이를 컴퓨터 모의 전사를 통해 확인하고, 가장 최적화된 안테나를 설계하여 실험을 하였다. ICP에서는 모든 튜브가 방전에 성공한 반면, 헬리콘 플라즈마는 ICP에 10배에 달하는 높은 밀도를 냈으나, 오직 4개 튜브만이 켜지고 안정적으로 방전이 이루어 지지 않았다. ICP의 경우, RF 전송선의 디자인을 통해 파워의 균등 분배가 가능하지만, 헬리콘의 경우 자기장을 추가해서 고려해야 되는 것을 확인하였다. 모든 튜브에 비슷한 자기장을 형성하기 위해서는 자석의 크기가 커지는 문제점이 있으나, 매우 낮은 압력에서 방전이 가능하고, 같은 압력에서 ICP에 비해 10배 이상 달하는 장점이 있다. 실험 결과를 바탕으로, ICP와 헬리콘 플라즈마의 다수 방전에 대한 분류를 하였고, 바로 현장에 투입이 가능한 소스로 판단된다.

Environmental impact is getting more attention in many feasibility studies for railroad-related projects and research items. For sustainable growth and green transportation, the benefits typically used for feasibility studies in railway-related projects, are composed mostly of economic criterions which is not considering growing attention on changing paradigm. Based on the analysis of current methodologies, improvements in estimating environmental impact especially on noise and pollution are suggested. Active steering bogie has been proposed to satisfy stabilizing and steering performance of railroad. This paper describes the feasibility study of the active steering bogie for a urban railway vehicle based on environment-related criteria.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among delay gratification, delay strategy, and parents' child-rearing attitude. The participants of the study were 62, 18-36 month old infants, who demonstrated individual differences in the level of delay gratification and their mothers. The instruments of the study were infant's delay gratification and delay strategy were assessed by Mischele(1974) and the parents' responded to the parents' child-rearing attitude(Cho et al., 1999). Data were collected by menas of conducting observations on infants in experimental settings and completing questionnaires with mothers. The results of this study were as follows: 1. The delay gratification of infants differed accordingly to their age. Older infants displayed increased time in showing their delay gratification, while younger infants relatively exhibited shortened time. There was no significant difference in infants' sex and the order of the birth. 2. Following the age factor, the distraction strategy in the delay strategy played a significant difference to infants. Older infants required a frequent use of the distraction strategy in comparison to younger infants. 3. The previous two factors - delay gratification and distraction strategy-showed a positive relationship. 4. The delay gratification was significantly influenced by infants' age, parents' attitude, direct facing strategy, and infants' distraction strategy. However, the delay gratification was insignificantly accounted for by infants' sex.

In this paper, we proposed a video watermarking algerian based on wavelet transform using statistical characteristic of video according to the energy distribution and the spread spectrum technique. In the proposed method, the original video is splitted by spatial difference metric and classified into the motion region and the motionless region according to the motion degree. The motion region is decomposed into 3-levels using 3D DWT and the motionless region is decomposed into 2-levels using 2D DWT The baseband of the wavelet-decomposed image is not utilized because of the image quality. So that the standard deviation of the highest subband coefficients except for the baseband is used to determine the threshold. Binary video watermarks preprocessed by the random permutation and the spread spectrum technique are embedded into selected coefficients. In computer experiments, the proposed algorithm was found to be more invisible and robust than the conventional algorithms.

Text understand in natural images has become an active research field in the past few decades. In this paper, we present an automatic recognition system in Korean signboards with a complex background. The proposed algorithm includes detection, binarization and extraction of text for the recognition of shop names. First, we utilize an elaborate detection algorithm to detect possible text region based on edge histogram of vertical and horizontal direction. And detected text region is segmented by clustering method. Second, the text is divided into individual characters based on connected components whose center of mass lie below the center line, which are recognized by using a minimum distance classifier. A shape-based statistical feature is adopted, which is adequate for Korean character recognition. The system has been implemented in a mobile phone and is demonstrated to show acceptable performance.

In this paper, we propose a method to accelerate BWN based on FPGA with limited resources for embedded system. Because of the limited number of logic elements available, a single computing unit capable of handling Conv-layer, FC-layer of various sizes must be designed and reused. Also, if the input feature map can not be parallel processed at one time, the output must be calculated by reading the inputs several times. Since the number of available BRAM modules is limited, the number of data bits in the BWN accelerator must be minimized. The image classification processing time of the BWN accelerator is superior when compared with a embedded CPU and is faster than a desktop PC and 50% slower than a GPU system. Since the BWN accelerator uses a slow clock of 50MHz, it can be seen that the BWN accelerator is advantageous in performance versus power.

Terminology recognition system which is a preceding research for text mining, information extraction, information retrieval, semantic web, and question-answering has been intensively studied in limited range of domains, especially in bio-medical domain. We propose a domain independent terminology recognition system based on machine learning method using dictionary, syntactic features, and Web search results, since the previous works revealed limitation on applying their approaches to general domain because their resources were domain specific. We achieved F-score 80.8 and 6.5% improvement after comparing the proposed approach with the related approach, C-value, which has been widely used and is based on local domain frequencies. In the second experiment with various combinations of unithood features, the method combined with NGD(Normalized Google Distance) showed the best performance of 81.8 on F-score. We applied three machine learning methods such as Logistic regression, C4.5, and SVMs, and got the best score from the decision tree method, C4.5.
